[Q] Unable to boot into phone - Desire 816 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have this problem for quite a while now. I had Lineage OS installed in my phone for about 6 months and suddenly , one day when I tried booting into it , it failed. The HTC logo appeared but then the phone shut down , it would boot if I plug the charger in. I took it to HTC service center , to get it checked. They told that it might be caused by faulty battery. I took it to a shop nearby to get the battery replaced , but replacing the battery did not work. The shopman told me that the phone is rooted , and they told me that they will lock it. After they did , now I am unable to boot at all. I unlocked the bootloader again , and when I try to open recovery (TWRP) it just shutsdown again. I will get the battery charging screen. If I press the lock screen , I can see a bit of twrp but I'm unable to operate it. I then flashed CWM , it works , but I have no idea what to do next. I only had TWRP backups , which unfortunately do not work any longer.
I have a5_dwg.

try to install twrp 3.0.0, probably from adb shell over the USB cable, in cwm recovery.
that should sort it out. hopefully. then you can try restoring a backup and see if switching the battery actually made any difference or not.

Unable to boot into phone
I have the same problem with me but i have twrp installed(3.0.0) and stock rom and bootloader unlocked. When i install lineage os in it it boots but only when charger is connected whereas when i restore my stock rom back up it couldn't boot into it reboots again and again...

Try wiping data with the stock backup to see if it'll boot. I had an evo3d with some internal glitch that would from time to time bootloop stock until I wiped data then it would start up again.
Sounds like your battery might be weak, ROMs like to shut down if they think the battery is too low.

Having the same problem right now, confused whether I should replace the battery or not, right now plugged into a charger, phone is fully charged nd removing the charger phone turns off.

Device strange issue will not stop giving problems!

This is a list of events that I have gone through today. I received a new charger because the old one I had became defective & was charging my phone up & then it would go back down to 0% & then shut off & it would end up in a problem where the phone would not turn on unless I pulled out the battery while the AC was in & then it was able to charge but still it would turn on, on its own to drain the battery when off & this was very frustrating. The charger I have now works but the device acts strange over the last few months doing a task29 & flashing the first ROM after would make that ROM not work & then I had to flash a totally different ROM to make it work. I was using Android & it had died a few times & also I experienced the same thing I did when it would charge up & go back down to 0%. please read below:
I got my new charger today & at 62% of charge I decided to flash to a custom ROM via mem card again well the ROM was a success but when pulling battery out to restart it didnt want to work. So I went to flash again in bootloader by memory card it shut off on me in the middle & restarted into bootloader again & shut off again right away. I did a task29 it worked got it out of bootloader & now the orange led flashes off & on when its off & now ive gotten that to stop. What exactly is wrong with this device?
it was @ 73% and finally setup a ROM NRGY however it ended up shutting off on its self & going into a power boot loop constantly restarting until that ROM can no longer start & now its stuck on the boot screen w/ its info.
I flashed the stock SPL on USB now im going to try to flash the carriers ROM back.
Stock SPL = Successful!
2nd Touch Pro 2 ROM Version Flash = Successful!
Its working for now. Battery is @ 80%
AHH! After charging to 100% idk what it did but when I went into the other room to check out its all possessed.
I have a black screen w/ white text that says:
The device is unable to boot because either you have turned off the device incorrectly or tried to install an application from untrusted source.
Press Volume Up to reset your device or press any other button to cancel.
This operation will delete all your personal data and restore the device to its factory default settings.
IDK how this happened.
When I hit any key it didnt do anything it was stuck until I did a battery pull. Then I restarted the device it was stuck at the boot screen w/ its red info. It erased the entire ROM. Then I tried to do recover mode & it did nothing. I tried to flash the stock ROM again & no results & then again & still no results. I think its now not accepting the ROM at all since from: in the ROM update utility is blank.
Now it decides to get past the boot screen but then it malfunctions again & restarts itself & it tries to setup a 2nd time then after it does & its on sense home for a couple of mins it reboots twice & now its stuck on the boot screen again.
Things that I can think of.
- Isn't your batterie just broken? You will break your batteries when you deplete them completely. Maybe try a new batterie, because you said that you let it die for a few times. It could be that this is causing your problems.
- Did you flash true usb when you were in the bootloader? Give that a try, because I believe that the customruu performs some sort of checks. Maybe this is nonsens, but you can try it.
The battery was fully charged & it was working better than before.
I reflashed the Stock SPL to flash the carriers ROM back & that worked but at anytime it just rebooted for whatever reason to make it so the ROM was unusable at any time I would reboot it would decide to actually go past it seldom. I experienced that at one point oddly it went into setup n it did it again after a while its just acting strange.
If you're back to stock SPL and stock ROM, can't you just send it back for a warranty replacement ?
IDK how old it is. I bought it brand new from ebay.

No warranty bro...
You can try but no warranty 9/10 times.
What ROM are you using? I used to have that issue with my betas.
It wld destroy itself after softreset and I would have to reflash.
Try to flash, turn off right after it boots, turn on and see how that works for ya.
Rep had told me I could get it replaced & they know I bought from ebay. But I havent called them on this yet.
It doesnt work. It usually doesnt go past the boot screen. Flashing does nothing to help it. Whenever it feels like it it may have to stay on for a few mins to go into setup but most of the time it will stay there & reboot, reboot, reboot, reboot each time its a different # of times & it will reset itself at anytime. Ive even had bootloader shut off on me & restart itself during flashing its a pain. I had another issue I didnt mention my device on any custom ROM when I had 0.85 olinex SPL the device would just freeze & not respond every time. Now this is a different situation. I am back of SPL 0.87 which is the default. I flashed the entire carrier ROM which 0.79 was rewritten w/ 0.87 & that was successful but its still rebooting & causing fatal problems including the black screen w/ white text.
UPDATE: I just walked into the kitchen. Somehow the device turned on by itself & now its sitting on the sense home screen. I know its not fixed but idk why it would turn itself on.
Moved as not ROM Development.
Try flashing task 29 1st... Might be because when you flash remnants of the older OS are still there causing trouble. Remember though, you need to have Hard SPLed it 1st....
I got so frustrated I just got done calling T-Mobile Tech Support & they are going to ship me a replacement.

I thought I would reply to you.
This is what started my problems is when I did a task 29 my device was acting funny afterwards. I did it again about a month later cuz I flashed way too much & it kept getting worse. But Task29 didnt help this time its what caused me to have to flash 2 different ROMs cuz the first one I flash after doesnt work.
I received the battery & it didnt do anything.
I'm still waiting on the replacement to come.

[Q] Samsung Note N7100 stuck boot loop when unplug,but when charging loads the KitKat

Hi Guys,
've flash my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7100 to 4.4.2 KitKat it was successful, but after a few days my note 2 keeps auto shutting down randomly and sometimes I can't turn it on from sleep. I thought I've just missed something when flashing to 4.4.2 KitKat, what I did was to re-flash it and check if I've missed something but not. After I re-flash it, I've encountered this problem. I'm stuck at boot loop, I've done the Wipe process it was successful, but it didn't fix the problem, what I've noticed is when it's NOT charging or plug to PC it is stuck at boot loop, but when I plugged it to PC or charge it it continues loading the KitKat, sometimes prompting that it's not charging.
I'm wondering what could be the problem here. I've google any possible problem, I can't find any similar problem to mine. Can anyone help?
I'm still try any possible way to fix... HELP!

I exactly encounter the same issue on my Note II. It seems that the automatic reboot (then the boot loop) when the phone is unplugged is generated with apps (or system) using internet connection or the camera.
Please help ! :crying:

I had a similar problem with my note 2 N7100.
It used to reboot every 30 minutes.
The best solution was to reinstall the firmware using ODIN.
First you need to download the firmware from sammobile and put the phone in download mode and install it.
Hope this solution helps you too.

Thank you anish. I already tried this solution (with stock firmware and Cyanogenmod 10.3 &11) but it didn't work for me
The phone boot only happens when I unplug the USB cable and launch an app. If I do nothing after unplugging the cable the phone don't boot immediatly.

Hi guys ! I finally found a temporary work around to avoid automatic reboot. After multiple tests I noticed that the issue seems to come from CPU usage.My phone never went to deep sleep and often stayed around 1600MHz.
The work around was to go to Preferences > Performances > Processor/CPU > Strategy select "userspace" . The CPU goes down to 800MHz but I don't have any more automatic reboot when the USB cable is unplugged.
After reboot the boot loop is still there (so I need to put back in the USB cable to boot normally). I was wondering if the boot loop comes from the boot.img file...

Ive literally tried everything .even repartioned the phone . it works fine in recovery and download mode but as soon as i want too boot to android unplugged it restarts . when plugged it has no problem
Funny thing. I have a factory Sprint Note 2 with the latest kitkat updat and I am experiencing the same problem. Phone has not been rooted or messed with. If anybody come across a solution let me know. I booted the phone and unplugged the power button to verify and it does the same thing. Only stays on when in airplane mode or charging.
One more thing. I tried somewhat to do what was posted above about performance / cpu power. I put the phone in powersave mode and checked limit cpu and is is fully operation. problem gone. If I turn power save mode off I'm back to square one.
To late. Took a picture by mistake and phone jumped into boot loop.
i have GT-N7100 and same problem phone is stuck on boot loop when unpluged
---------- Post added at 04:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------
i just tought maybe it needs new battery. cause before i unpluged it it showed 67% then bootlooped 2x then i pluged back in and it shows me only 5%. i think its battery cause it cant dishcharge in 1 or 2min
My initial problems were that it would drop signal and show an x with no bars intermittently. then i started having problems anytime the phone demanded use. Picture, internet, video. tried a few things listed above. Still would go into a boot loop when not plugged in. Battery would charge normally and show it percentage like normal. It would reach 100% with no difference in charge time. When battery saver is on it would not have a problem unless I use an app that demands more cpu usage, network connection, battery consumption. Put a new battery and problem is gone. some people say the battery show swelling but my battery looks identical to the new one. no swelling and it is not deformed in any way.
It also solves the problem for me ...but i dont know what to do after the restart ...have u found a permenant solution

I was thinking. If you flashed with a bad battery whats there to keep it from affecting the flash / update. The stock system doesn"t allow an update unless the battery is charged. It doesn't know if the battery is faulty. Try to reflash after a new battery has been reinstalled and charged to full. It's just a thought.

Where is the Preferences section? I am unable to find that on my Note 2 settings.
Experienced the same thing and this is the first time I had this. I was playing a game after I fully charged my battery and suddenly it turns off. So I waited for it to turn on where I noticed that it keeps on turning on and off and stuck on the " Samsung Galaxy Note 2" logo screen. Then I tried several things like clearing the cache and dalvik but it just do the same thing. I re-flashed the 4.4 ROM that I was using but sadly it does the same thing. I then noticed that if I plug in the charger it works normally and does not boot loop. And as soon as I remove the charger it will keep on restarting on and off on that screen. I was thinking that it might be a hardware failure or the battery itself. So I went to recovery mode and unplugged the charger, it stays on. Went to download mode without the charger and it stays on. Freakin' weird. I am about to flash a different ROM and will wipe everything and see what happens...
Fully charged the battery to 100%, unplugged the charger and it started to boot loop again. I allowed it to boot loop once and immediately went to recovery mode and saw that my fully charged battery went down to 3%. Tried different ROMS (Omega, DN3, and Phoenix), I still have this issue. Now can use my Note2 as long as the charger is plugged in...
Change your battery and solve the problem ?

And it was stuck.. After that battery got drained and phone is dead now.. what to do Im so much worried now.. Please help..
How to charge and switch the mobile to normal state?? cause its not charging with charger now, charging light keep on blinking..
So Im out of this misery now, I have managed to reboot my device via adb, and its working but now when I enter into recovery mode, it just shows a black screen, it does not give any option to select zip file, I have already put in the root of device.. How can this be solved??
If you have CWM recovery here is a alternate way -----> when I had flashed CWM recovery it was showing me black screen as u see. I don't know how to solve that. but you can flash TWRP recovery. I have successfully overwritten TWRP recovery over CWM...!!!!

D855 Stuck in Bootloop-- Light Sensor and Vibration Still Work

I'm having a weird problem. Yesterday I was using my phone as I normally do-- texting, playing simple puzzle games, etc.-- when I noticed the battery was at about 2%. I wasn't very concerned so I tried to send one last text before it died. Shortly afterward it died with the usual "Powering Down" alert. I thought absolutely nothing of it and once I had access to a charger, I did what I normally do: I turn on my phone, wait for it to get past the LG splash screen, and I plug it in once it gets to the boot animation. I do this so my phone will turn on instead of going into charge only mode. Also, like usual, my phone's screen dimmed seconds after the boot animation began (I assume from my automatic light sensor settings), and I could feel it vibrating a little (also something it typically does upon boot).
However this is as far as it got. I was very confused when about an hour later, the phone still hadn't completed boot. I removed the battery, inserted it again, and tried once more telling myself that I would wait as long as I could instead of just an hour. Booting the second time gave me identical results-- everything is normal (light sensor response and vibration indicating the phone is powering on) yet it gets stuck. The only difference is that this time I got to see the entire bootloop.
After the boot animation screen has run for a while, I get the usual "Android is starting.... Optimizing app ## of ##" (#= actual numbers). Once it finishes, instead of booting my phone, it begins the boot animation again. If left alone it will cycle between the boot animation and the "Android is Starting" screen indefinitely.
TL;DR:
1. ) Caught in bootloop between boot animation screen and "Android is Starting... Optimizing app ## of ##" screen.
2. ) The screen still dims and there are little vibrations that usually tell me the phone is about to turn on.
I have tried:
- a hard reset- this yields only a slightly stronger vibration and it starts the bootloop again.
- Download mode- this does the same as the hard reset
- Removing battery for a while- no results
- Full charge to completely dead to full charge again on charge only mode- no results
I am running CM13 Nightlies from late February (not completely sure which exact date). Which I flashed without issue about a month ago. I do have Xposed and run various modules, but I was using nothing at the time and hadn't for about a month. My computer recognizes my phone as an LG G3 Device, but refuses to access any files.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Phone not starting.
First remove phone battery, insert it again, do not start phone. Connect your phone to original charger and charge it, while charging with the charger start your phone. Your phone should start if yes/no report me immediately. Your phone battery is failing to start your phone (Due to Low Voltage in battery). Replace with original battery.

Alright, I removed the battery, reinserted it (without turning the phone on) plugged it into the wall charger (seeing the charge only battery animation), and attempted to turn it on. Whenever I try to turn my phone on after plugging it in, I get the LG splash screen followed by the battery charging animation. It never reaches the boot animation. I'll let it charge for a while and try again.
Thank you for the advice!
Okay, I let the phone charge completely and attempted to turn it on whilst plugged into the wall charger again. Unfortunately I had the same issue. The phone shows the LG splash screen and then the battery charging animation again-- no boot animation.

Yeah, I'm trying to avoid a full reflash/data wipe. Since I haven't messed around with any Xposed modules or root apps, I also haven't backed up anything for quite a while. No abnormal apps were running before the battery died, which leads me to believe this can be solved somehow without a full wipe.
Also, I tried to use my boyfriend's battery to boot up my phone. I thought it might be a bad battery-- as some people on-line have mentioned. Unfortunately, it still refused to boot and it produced the same bootloop.
You see , if and not and this and that dont help . te only way to save files is to get acces by recovery or boot, you cant boot but possible you have recovery so start saving your files you need. when you have or dont have your files . you stil need your system to boot for that to happen, it needs to work. so flashing a default rom with wipe sould work if it doesnt you flash original if that doesnt work its dead
Verstuurd vanaf mijn LG-D855 met Tapatalk
I think I forgot to mention, I cannot access recovery mode. I have the latest TWRP installed, but attempting to boot into recovery gives me the same results-- endless bootanimation/ "Android is Starting" bootloop.
So no acces at all . so what do you do ? Read above! Anyway good luck

Solved
I fixed my problem. It turns out I was being an idiot and got the method of entering recovery mode on the LG G3 confused with my Samsung tablet. I should be able to fix the bootloop on my own now. Thanks everyone for your help! Cheers to idiocy.
Hey, I have the exact same issue right now. Did you solve your problem, and how? I tried removing the battery and charging with original charger to 100%. I connected it to my PC, went into Download mode and clicked "Restore Upgrade Errors" in LG PC Suite. It successfully flashed the firmware update, then it said "Android is starting.... Optimizing app ## of ##". But after that it restarted into bootlop again. Also I noticed that sometimes it vibrates, and my LED (light sensor) doesn't light up anymore.
Any advice? I haven't tried replacing the battery yet.

Soft Brick from bad cable?

So earlier today I plugged in my charger into the phone, and it gave me an error messaging saying something about the cable being damaged, and System UI crashed. I unplugged it and made a mental note to buy another charger.
The device was having some issues with SystemUI properly rebooting, so I restarted the phone and got caught into a boot loop.
The device will not go past the HTC splash screen, just rebooting every few seconds.
It doesn't reboot when I go into the white screen bootloader, nor does ADB or fastboot oem detect it.
If I select download or recovery mode, one of two things happens:
1) It displays the monochromatic HTC logo for a few seconds and then reboots back into the normal bootloop.
2) It stays in the monochromatic HTC logo without doing anything else.
ADB does not work in any state, nor does trying to flash an RUU.
I've tried sticking an RUU with an SD Card and going into download mode, but nothing happens.
The device was running Leedroid at the time.
The bootloader is unlocked, and it is S-ON. It is a T-Mobile device with the Marshmallow Firmware installed.
I would very much appreciate help for this as I've been searching for solutions the entire afternoon.
I don't quite understand how a faulty cable would cause a bootloop but not completely fry the device.
Thanks.

No, it just brings up the same issue of it getting stuck on the monochrome HTC logo.
no idea as i've never had this happen, but when i've had issues in the past i'd let the battery drain completely, then charge it a little, then try booting to download mode. maybe you could try that? did you have twrp or any custom recovery installed?

I've tried that, and I have the latest TWRP.
