My Pixel C is fully changed but the screen is black and won't display anything at all. I know it is on because I can take screenshots with the hardware button and hear the noise. I can also see it on Android Device Manager. I have long pressed with all the different button combinations. It reboots but the screen shows NOTHING (not even the Google boot logo).
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
It is stock and not rooted but subscribed to the Beta channel.
I has this problem today as well and I'm on beta as well. I had to press the volume down button as well as the power button to get into recovery mode and rebooted from there. I can only assume it's something to do with the beta as I have not had this before I updated to O beta.

I didn't elect to install O. I didn't see the update notification in the last couple weeks before it had this problem.
I can't get to recovery because the screen is off. How did you do it? Or were you able to see the screen after holding the volume down button as well as the power button to get into recovery mode?
I had to hold both buttons down for about 30 secs and then I got into recovery mode. From there I just restarted the device.

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately, that is not working. I have tried holding for 60 seconds just to be sure. It is so strange!
Not sure what it is in that case. Have you tried the volume up button to get fast boot mode?
I am having this problem aswel, on the android O beta. I can not use it and I can not see the bootloader when holding down power + volume down
edit: resolved the issue by trying button combinations until it booted (took around 2 hours total with time of disappointment in between)
edit2: oh my ****ing god it booted correctly (showed bootloader warning + bootlogo + lockscreen) but it locked and now it's black again!
edit3: was able to get into fastboot after 3 tries so i'm flashing the factory image right now (7.1.2)
edit4: flashed 7.1.2 factory image and was able to fastboot boot into twrp but still no display.
edit5: i am now troubleshooting i checked all the files in /sys/devices/50000000.host1x/54400000.dsi/54400000.dsi.0/backlight/lpm102a188a-backlight/ they all indicate 255 which is 100% anyone have any ideas?
final edit: i fixed it by trying a **** ton of times
Hello,
Can you tell what have you do to repair the pixel? Have the same issues after Oreo update :/
Anyone found a way to fix permanently? Mine started doing it around Christmas 2018, and it takes more and more tries every time (to ctrl-down power) and at some point it works... Then all stays fine until I close the lid or put it to seep.
Did someone reinstalled completly the os and got a success? I am not rooted, this started when It tried (and failed) to install 8.1 (update of oreo).

Power off completely, then hold volume up and power to get to bootloader. Press volume down until you get to recovery and hit power button. It should reset and then a android appears. If it then says error hold power and press up volume. You should get to recovery menu that way.
Wipe cache...
Reboot and see what happens...

Try tapping up volume 3 times but remember to let go of power at roughly the same time or 10 seconds later the phone will power off...
It just do not enter this recovery mode... no matter what

Mine is the same and won't boot up, just vibrates once and does nothing....
i resolved simply reflashing the old pre rooted firmware 2.19.40.18 and installing ota 2.19.40.20 with adb sideload after complete unroot with supersu.i forgot to uninstall xposed and this was the reason of my botloop after update to 2.19.40.20.luckily i had twrp so before reflashing i backupped all my stuff.that's it.you need to reflash droidboot,recovery,boot and system imgs from bootloader with the usually way.no other way out.hope you installed a custom recovery before loop,so you can backup

I have the same problem

my device is in error screen, and with the dead robot.
Hi guys, please help, maybe some of you could do that for me... Problem is strange and I just did not find solution jet... So, I just can not power down my ZE551ML completly. Device is trying somehow to boot up, getting some kind of loop. First of all, phone came to me totaly dead - I have to plug it in to charger for 3-4 hours to ligh up notification led... After that it turned on normally. After first boot and setting things up, updates showed up. So I did update - for 4 times, OTA. It looks ok (now I have 2.20.40.90 clean, I mean no root or unlocked BL). But strange comes when I want to turn it off (power down) - device is shutting down, screean is going black and... bum! - the battery icon is showing up: emty for the very first few seconds, then it changeing to green (showing actually power state, I mean accu capacity), then device reboot itself and whole process starts over and over again... I can not stop it. Well, I think if the battery would be full, that could completly discharge it - couse is unstopable... I found, that when I press vol- when the battery is green, phone shuts off its screen, but after 20 seconds the process begins over again... i can boot it normally by pressing vol+ and power - it leads me to the bootloader manu, then boot normally - done. but it is very annoing... beside that phone is ok. Can someone help? BTW - I did factory reset from stock recovery, but it did not help...

I had the same problem. My solution was to unplug the usb charger. After that, the update was successfully.
on me Z007 I did a factory reset because my phone would not start and when it did it kept giving me messages about unfortunately this stopped and that stopped BBM, Zenui, google play store etc. Once i did the factory reset the phone worked again but I had no data so I thought I would just restart. Now all I get is ASUS and the spinning wheel. any suggestions??
Hello, I own model Asus Zenfone 2 laser 5.5 ( ZE550KL ) I have also same problem, phone keeps on rebooting....... Showing Asus logo and then vibrates and again start rebooting
I have installed asus firmware from SD card from recovery mode which was successfully installed .... did every thing after pressing volume and power button and even performed necessary actions by doing fastbood mode.
but phone is on same condition.... showed every where.. even service center people raised there hands
Kindly help me to recover my phone back.
I've dug around trying to find a similar problem here and on google, so my apologies if this has already been addressed.
The problem originally began when the game pad stopped being responsive (or at times took multiple presses to get a response) and after no luck troubleshooting it, I tried to reset from clockwork recovery.
Ever since my phone no longer boots. It just sits on the LUPUS wolf logo (I do not recall exactly which rom I am running, but I hope this helps) and at first I thought it was your normal "this can take a bit" first boot, but I've let it eat the whole battery and it never gets anywhere. I've tried to prompt the phone to boot into both custom recovery and d/l mode and neither get me anywhere. Any suggestions?

IMHO, it looks like faulty slider flex cable (exact same situation i had, but i was able to enter recovery after 2 minutes of logo on screen)
Try to power on phone with slider open.
If you can enter in recovery mode with "volume -" (if it light blue led or vibrate) and see is d-pad is working.
Sorry for the delayed reply. The notification went into my spam folder :/
Alright, I followed your steps in two ways. I opened the slider and held both the power and the volume down till I got the buzz buzz and the LED blinked green once and continued to hold volume down till I got the LUPUS logo. No luck. I did mostly the same thing the second time but I held the volume down for 3 minutes with the same result. I still have yet to make it back into recovery.

To be able to enter recovery, it is not "holding volume-" while powering on phone or keeping it pressed.
Press power button (and it should vibrate), and release it.
When blue led is on press and release vol- button many times untill you enter recovery (don't keep it pressed all time)
Ah, you are absolutely right. I've never entered recovery like that on another Android before. I loaded up the "near perfect" rom and my game pad seems to be working for now, so it appears I am back in business.
How problematic is it if my slider flex cable is going bad? Will it permanently fail eventually?
Flashed back to stock and wiped everything few days ago. Today all of a sudden I can't get past the bootloader unlocked warning and the OnePlus logo flashes for a split second then it keeps doing this repeatedly. I also can't switch off the phone because the power button doesn't seem to do anything and I also can't boot into recovery. Fastboot works but that doesn't last long either, it exits fastboot mode on it's own and goes back to the bootloop again, also during fastboot all the buttons are unresponsive. The phone is not detected when connected to a PC during this bootloop, but if I do try to boot into fastboot mode and then plug it in the phone shows up as QHUSB_BULK for a split second and disappears.
As of now it's been doing this for over two hours. What are my options? Thanks for any help in advance.

As I am someone with the highest levels of skill, I believe I will be able to assist you with the powers of Google.
This exact same scenario happened to me a couple weeks ago, but for different reasons. (I flashed magisk on a non magisk compatible ROM) This guide over on the OnePlus 3 forums helped out a lot. Just keep in mind the mini version probably won't fix it for you, only the full one fixed it for me. Probably should do the same. Reason I say is because when I did the mini, it did boot up ish, but the logo was all faded and wouldn't let me get to recovery or fastboot. Also it showed up as 900E in device managed instead of QS 9008. This made it so I couldn't use the tool to flash it anymore, for some reason. I forgot what I did to fix it from there, but don't do what I did .

Yeah I saw this exact thread on the OnePlus forums, thing is I can't get it to power off at all. The power button is completely unresponsive even after holding it down for more than 40 seconds. I'm just going to give it another shot once it dies on its own, hopefully one of those methods will work. Thanks anyway though.

Sorry for replying old post. I have been facing this critical scenario for last two days. The phone never turned off, always looped through unlock warning. No, button working. Can you please share , what about your findings at the end ??
First off, I did do a search, but as far as I can tell no one has had this problem so far.
This is all after modding using a tool kit: (i can't include the url but it is the toolkit by neisor on the oneplus forums)
tldr: phone stuck in bootloop, computer wont recognize the phone, maybe because it keeps shutting off and then booting to the 1+ logo, then shutting off again, would drivers help? what can I do about the volume up button?
So for a while my volume up button hasn't been working, and the mega unbrick post shows that I need to hold the volume up button for at least 25 seconds and while holding, plug my phone in. I have also seen some posts that say the volume up button could be a software issue, and the button itself could be working, and it is just not registering, as well as someone saying that you could take the back off and manually press the button, instead of using the bar on the outside of the phone (would this work?). I have gotten the button to work in the past by pressing the volume up button to the side instead of straight in, but I haven't been able to get it to work since my phone got bricked.
Another issue: my phone is stuck in a boot loop, I can't access fastboot, and I'm unsure of recovery because my volume up button is not working. would it be worth it to deal with the constant vibrating to try to get it to recovery?
I have been able to shut the phone off by holding the power button for something like a minute and a half, though.
This is my first post, and if I have broken any rules I am very sorry, but I need help and am tired of not having a phone.
Thank you everyone,
Mark
Edit: this is what I did to root the phone:
1. download the toolkit
2. unlock bootloader (when fastbooting the phone said unlocked at the bottom, and a message about not being secure showed every time I rebooted the phone)
3. flashed twrp (no issues, still booted, recovery went to twrp. for some reason I had to flash multiple times as every now and then recovery would revert to stock op, although I did make a backup through twrp)
4. send supersu zip file to phone, install using twrp (phone would not boot, op logo stayed on phone for 2 hrs + until I rebooted to fastboot and tried to reinstall the backup I made, still nothing)
5. Try magisk (still stuck on op logo)
6. try to go back to stock, accidentally lock bootloader (now the phone is stuck in bootloop, don't know what to do from here as I cant get to fastboot and am unsure of recovery's accessibility.)
If you are sure you have a broken volume button, you need to replace it first in order to get the phone fix.
Correction:
Fastboot/bootloader = Power+Vol Up
Recovery = Power+Vol Down
This happened to me except I didn't even get anything appear on the screen -- the phone just periodically vibrated with the screen not even light up. I tried the reset toolkit which is meant to flash your phone back to normal using Qualcomm drivers or something, but that didn't work either. Eventually I had to send it to OnePlus who fixed it for free in under a week! They said the motherboard had failed.
I hope you get this fixed!
Thanks

Damn, that sucks, and besides being unfixable (doubt it), this is my biggest fear. I'm in the US and really don't want to have to ship my phone to china to have it fixed. If you are in the US as well do you know if there is a OnePlus branch I can send it to in the US?

There seems to be one in Texas. Anyway, contact OnePlus and they may try to solve it over the air.
Apart from that, did you install the Qualcom drivers properly? Even with your faulty power button, try to hold it down for 40+ seconds (for the phone to switch off) and then immediately hold down the volume up button for 10 seconds and then plug in the phone to the PC. I know I am merely repeating the instructions of Naman Bhalla in his Mega Unbrick Guide but it is crucial to do them correctly especially the installation of the drivers. Try these steps repeatedly because for some people, the phone gets recognised after repeated attempts. Or else replace the power button and then try these steps.
I had to use the Guide last month and successfully resurrected my dead phone.

Can you boot into recovery by pressing power+volume down buttons?
Update: Got phone to show on computer as qualcomm under coms and ports
So last night I went ahead and held volume up for about 20 seconds, then plugged the phone in, keeping the volume up button pressed the entire time. my phone stopped bootlooping and showed up as a qualcom device! So I have downloaded the new driver the stock os, and am going to proceed to try to unbrick my phone.
Wish me luck,
Mark
Yes, I did, and its working so far

I still need to turn off the signed drivers features ( a huge bi*ch, I have to use another computer to contact microsoft or something to get my computer to load when I turn off safe boot or whatever its called), but once I do that I can install the driver and attempt to reinstall the stock os. Hopefully everything will go well.

So far recovery has not been loading, just the bootloop, but I have gotten the phone to power off by pressing the power button for 40 seconds, and the volume up button plus plugging in does make the phone register as qualcom 9008 or something like that. Basically everything is going well so far, and the faulty vol button seems to have been a software bug, as it does work when plugging it in. I will try to get to fast boot, but it did not work last time.
Thank you,

Glad to hear that there is some progress. Best of luck and keep us informed.
So last night everything was normal when I just placed my phone on the table and opened an app (Telegram). Soon after it auto rebooted and ever since then it's stuck on the Samsung logo. It resets when I hold down volume down + power, but never progresses. Any thoughts on what I should do next after these steps that I've done / things that happened?
Flashed latest stock fw (SamMobile) for my device - March 2022, CSC Smart, PH - via Odin. I always updated my phone whenever it appeared so it was on the latest already.
First tried HOME_CSC, next did CSC when it didn't work.
Also tried an update one month down to see. Didn't work.
Cannot go into recovery - Waited until battery drained so it can shut down, I plugged it to my PC, held volume up + power until logo showed up many times. Didn't work.
Plugged it into the charger, lightning icon shows but no number. Only happened once and I never saw it again when I tried. When the phone turned off from 0 battery, plugging it into the charger will boot it to the logo again.
There were never any signs of slow down, crashes, reboots before. This was a surprise.
Phone is about 3 years old. Never dropped. Never used for heavy gaming or all day media.
Battery drained faster, but I'm still able to last half a day with normal usage.
Left it running entire night (4+ hours) when I gave up, I noticed some burn in but it faded after I kept rebooting.
I recently tried flashing the earliest Android 11 update but it would fail according to the Download mode screen so I did not continue.
Any ideas? How do I tell if it's a software/firmware issue or if it's already hardware related? If I cannot go into recovery, is that a sign that it's hardware or am I doing it wrong? Thanks.

Left it running entire night (4+ hours) when I gave up, I noticed some burn in but it faded after I kept rebooting.
I recently tried flashing the earliest Android 11 update but it would fail according to the Download mode screen so I did not continue.

Any ideas? How do I tell if it's a software/firmware issue or if it's already hardware related? If I cannot go into recovery, is that a sign that it's hardware or am I doing it wrong? Thaitit
