Hi guys, having some trouble with my tablet. Started out of nowhere, but the screen doesn't light up until the device has been fully restarted, in which case once you lock the screen, the problem starts all over again and I have to restart it again. It also lights up when the device is off and the power cord is plugged in, but only briefly. Once it goes away, I can't use the power button or anything else to check the status of charging, only thing that works is unplugging it and plugging back in. It's still sensitive to the touch, there's haptic feedback, capacitive buttons work, it just stays black most of the time. Has anybody else had this issue and knows how to fix it? It came out of nowhere, the device is not rooted, haven't dropped it or anything. Thanks in advance

ok so here is the rundown
Device: HTC one on vzw
Rom: Slimbean 2.x
Gapps: Slim AIO gapps
had a weird problem with the display today if anyone has had this or know someone who has i would greatly appreciate the help. I just flashed Slimbean 2.x last night and all was good. no problems what so ever, got everything setup and was working fine. this morning around 10am i opened snapchat to view a video. i clicked on the video and as soon as it started the screen went blank and would not turn on. i tried holding the power button down for at least a minute and nothing. also tried power and volume down, power and both volume buttons, power and volume up and still nothing seems to work. when i plug it into the wall charger the red LED light does not turn on and screen does not wake. when i plug it into the computer the computer does not ever read the device and noting pops up letting me browse the files on the phone. i have no clue why this happened it has been working fine for the 3 months that i've had it. took it to verizon about an hour ago and they didn't know either but they are sending me a replacement htc one. all i really want now are my photos that i have on the phone.
does anyone have any ideas about what i could do?
thanks
I had something similar and think it was conflict related. After installing the "advanced power menu" with xposed, I had an issue when trying to use it to boot into recovery. Basically it had timed out and then went away without rebooting. The next time I tried it locked up and my screen went black. My keys would light up if I clicked on the power button (it was dark in the room so the sensor was still working), but nothing else. Nothing I did would make the screen turn on at all and holding down the power key to reboot did not work. I just planned on letting the battery die out. After about 45 minutes, the phone just rebooted and everything was back to normal. I really think it locked up due to a conflict similar to what a PC might do.
Hi everyone,
As the title says, my phone simply will not boot past the samsung logo. I insert the battery, a few seconds later there is a vibration. Then the samsung logo appears, and it shuts down. It does not reboot itself; it just suddenly dies. After it the shutdown, all buttons are unresponsive; holding the power button will do nothing.
I have tried plugging in the charger both with and without the battery inside the phone. When I plug in the charger, the red LED that indicates that it is charging turns on. After a few seconds it vibrates, then almost immediately the red LED light flickers off, and everything is just as unresponsive as before. Leaving the charger inside will yield no results or change.
I have tried to turn my phone on with the battery and charger plug into the phone with a few variations. First, charger first, then battery. The battery is inserted within a second or two of plugging in the charger. The red LED light appears, then the light turns off right before the vibration. The screen shows the battery logo that indicates the phone is charging. This image appears for a few seconds, then it becomes unresponsive as before. Second, battery first, then charger. There are two more variations for this. One is battery, then plugging in the charger right after the battery is put in (before the vibration is felt). After the vibration, the battery logo appears for a few seconds before it shuts down and becomes unresponsive again. The second variation is: battery first, then vibration, then right after the charger. Same result as before.
I have also tried to remove both sim card and sd card. No avail.
I have tried to boot it into recovery mode, as well as download mode. Nevertheless, the phone will shut down before getting into any menus.
I have tried to tap the power button multiple times in case the power button and home button were stuck or jammed. However, I doubt this is the problem.
My computer will not recognize my phone, since I cannot boot it past the samsung logo.
I have tried using different batteries, same issue.
I am aware that a factory reset may be an option that I may have to take, but I have some important data on my phone that is not backed up, and I would very much prefer not to lose it all. I would appreciate any insight on how to fix my problem.
Thanks!
Mine was doing this for a bit until I realized my power button was stuck. The button seemed to press fine and all and looked fine physically, but the contact was somehow stuck. Take apart the phone, direct some compressed air into it using the little 'straw' for the nozzle to focus it... Also try pressing the button a bunch of times hard, etc. And see if that helps.

Fixed it! Opened it up, jiggled around with the power button stuff. I had no idea what I was doing. I blew, with my mouth, really hard on it. Now it works. laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwll
You helped! Thankyou
Now would be a good time to backup that important data. A lot of the time, that's is just a temporary fix and it may happen again.

Hi,
My S4 SGH-M919 is having a problem where it appears to turn on, charge, and boot to the OS, but there is no response from the screen. The bottom buttons illuminate but the screen doesn't want to turn on. I've tried removing the battery and holding the power button down for an X-number of seconds, but this doesn't seem to do the trick.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
With the phone powered off, connect the phone to the charger. If you see the charging animation, sounds to me like the screen may be damaged or the LCD/motherboard connector is loose.
Was the phone every dropped or bumped?

please , i have same problem with my note P601 ( android 5.1 )
how to fix it
please help me
If I take the battery out and put it back in, phone vibrates once as if booting up but screen blank, nothing else happens.
A couple of times I saw the samsung logo or that it was entering recovery, but then the screen went blank and nothing happened.
If I plug the phone in to charge via usb the notification light is red for a moment, then flickers out.
Edit: I think something is wrong with the power button, it might need to be replaced, it almost booted into system and hung. If I even gently touch the power button it brings up the power down menu. I'm trying to figure out if it can be replaced, if anyone has tips let me know.
The power button can be replaced but you need to have the correct tools to desolder and resolder the button.
I'm not very good at board-level repairs but there are how-to videos on YouTube to guide you through the process.
