So I broke my screen kept it lying around for 24 months then finally got it fixed this week
After replacement my power button doesn't wake up the screen at once
prolly press 20 times before it wakes up
The capacitive buttons light up on each press and even vibrates with fingerprint but screen stays off
It works fine in twrp lock screen. Locks and wakes up properly there.
The repair guy said that it's a software problem so he'll software reset it for for me I send it back
just clean flash havoc os latest but still the same problem

nope because the system drivers are corrupt so it needs to be reset by unbricking the device
ok thanks, but can u explain me the steps , cause i don't exactly know how to unbrick. Cause I've never done so.
I don't want anything wrong to happen.

Firstly download the unbrick tool I have sent you through the link then switch off your phone and make sure cable is unplugged then hold the volume up button on your phone and then plug in the USB cable to the computer and phone then on your computer and open device manager and make sure under ports it says Qualcomm 9 and then extract the unbrick tool then run mam as admin then click start

This has a collection of unbrick tools and versions of OOS.
This contains detailed instructions also.
Hope you solve your problem.
If not and you still have warranty for the display (OnePlus gives atleast 3 months warranty on replacement), take the phone to the Service Center. In fact, if you have warranty, that should be the first option.
Thanks for the response.
But I don't think my device is bricked, cause the phone is on working mode, but it's just that whenever I lock my phone.. It does not gets unlock on the first attempt. I need to press the unlock/power button end number of times & the phone still don't responds. It gets crashed and the System UI error occurs & asks for force stop & the phone is lagging a lot. I can't even use it properly.
I would still recommend doing it

By this point you have two options get another device or get your op3 and take it to a OnePlus service center and get it repaired

Who think he/she can help me?
I was trying to completely clean my DHD for my girlfriend. So I wiped is all off via all the information on this forum.
Tried to flash ROM, RUU, Bootloader and Kernel. (after some advices)
Now I have a big problem I think....
I cannot get into my bootloader anymore, my DHD is starting with HTC logo and then continues with Android startup and keep hanging in there.
Vol. down + Power is not getting me into bootloader.
Flashing from CMD does not seem to work either because I cannot get the DHD to connect via USB. (cable is connected to DHD and laptop)
If you can help me.... my girlfriend and I would be much gratefull.
Greetings,

what i know is accessed to the phone bootloader it just have two optional way..
first...with pressing and hole volume down+power
second..with adb command while the phone is already booting inside the rom..and off course with already enabling USB debugging too in system settings..
if both way doesn't work to access your bootloader...i think the last change is you must flashing it again the from beginning with RIFF BOX hardware and JTAG software if you have it..or take the phone to services center of HTC..
sorry...can't help more than this..

yap..RIFFBOX is a flashing hardware..
yes i know..if you already broken your phone cause of changing software by your self..htc will not recover your phone under they warranty
you already had loosing your phone warranty.. but i think that's not mean they can't help and fix your phone..off course without warranty (if they already know or detected that you already fault your warranty) then they will charge you with some of cost..
if so..with the hope of luck..then you can try brought your phone to the htc service center..then let they're analyst your phone and make decision about your valid warranty..who knows you already lucky then they don't know what are you already do it previously to that phone..
note : this all mean that's if your DHD is still recover under warranty by time..right..
hopefully your DHD will fixed soon..and good luck..
Hi there. I tried to update my Elephone P8000 but to no avail – my phone stuck in a boot loop and I couldn’t use it at all.
I noticed it had happened to more people online so I tried one of their fixes of flashing the stock ROM...which didn’t work.
I have downloaded all drivers, followed every tutorial step by step but nothing! And now instead of being stuck in a boot loop my phone won’t turn on at all.
My PC still recognises the phone which I guess is good, except I still cannot flash the stock ROM.
It gets past the red bar and the purple bar but then gets stuck at Download Flash 0%
Is there anything else I could possibly try as I’m all out of ideas and I really love this phone!
Thank you!
Try again using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/elephone-p8000/help/how-to-guideline-install-mtk-drivers-t3334698
It is just the same exact thing that happened to me. I would thank any help.

Your going to need to flash a Rom to fix it. Follow steps in the guide I linked above to flash.
Updates will brick these phones if they are rooted.

The number 7 key. If you're using keypad and numlock is off you will be pressing curser left. If you're using a laptop with a monitor attached to it the monitor will be black and the display will be on the laptop screen.
Other methods, try here http://pcsupport.about.com/od/windows-8/a/open-advanced-startup-options-windows-8.htm
Posting in case someone has the same problems as me.
I finally could do it with flashtool and some generic drivers I found here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/5ff6s5bk1couva9/Compelte+USB+Drivers+PDanet+Adb+Installer.rar
These drivers are signed, so I could install them without issues.
I have installed a custom recovery and a custom rom (nexus).
However, thank you very much, thundermuppet.

yes it is its pretty easy... . file is big though... download kdz for you variant.. what android you are using.? MM or were you on stock LP.?
well i think since your phone is from 2015 august. that bootloop was supposed to be fixed by then. but newer phone are still getting hit by the bootloop.. but be aware unlocking the bootloader voids warranty.. some been lucky that phone were repaired some were denied repair..

Going to give this a whirl now mate, thanks.
So I was using my phone normally yesterday, until it shuts down randomly while using the camera. So I restarted it, but it still restarted as I got to my home screen. So I said to myself that there must be something went wrong in the rom that I am using (which is LOS 14.1), but I've got a backup before **** happened, not to worry, after I restored it though, IT STILL RESTARTED, but the weird part is, It doesn't restart if it is charging. So I wondered maybe the battery has given up, but in the TWRP, it doesn't restart even unplugged?
Things that I had tried:
1. Tried a new rom (this time using BORETS ROM), still restarts when unplugged.
2. Ran the backup again, still no change.
3.Drained my battery in TWRP, charged it up to 100%, still restarts.
Also, when I boot up my phone without a USB cable plugged in, It restarts when loading the main rom (the rom's splash screen, not the main splash screen), PLEASE HELP ME.

The problem just seems very weird to be a hardware problem , So, again, after charging my phone up to 100 percent, booted it up to Android and then unplugged it, and I had about a minute of activity now before it shuts down. Again in recovery or boot loader, it never shuts down.
Do me a favour , test with cable attached to phone but detached from charger to rule out USB socket , cable etc:good:

If its out of warranty , i would first check all connections inside phone ,
it could be battery
it could be main board or usb board.
If it were battery though , it should shut down connected to lower amp pc usb2.
Not much you can do really apart from above, usb boards are cheap`sh to buy, maybe worth the gamble ? Obviously if connections dont fix before ditching if main board. Try a discon of all connections and reconnect before ditching
I have the EXACTLY same problem.

Hello,
In the rush of flashing the january update I've flashed by mistake the Pixel 5 image bootloader (my wife's phone)
Yest that's stupid, I've done this every months for years with several Pixel phones, but I was listening to music at the same time and did dl the wrong image...
Anyway my phone is now hard bricked but I'm sure there must be a way to enter the other bootlader slot and/or entering a special recovery tool.
I cannot enter bootloader anymore
Requesting some help as I'd avoid to send it for a reflash...
Thanks !

No that's the problem.
But there are 2 bootloader slots (a and b) and I'm pretty sure there is way to switch from one to another with a special tool or button sequence.
I've already tried many button combinaison with no luck.
This kind of error is so stupid that I hope there is a way to force a rescue bootloader or something on boot.
yes but you need to be able to communicate with your phone from your pc.....if you cant access fastboot then how will you change partition?

The only special tools we have are either the pixel repair tool or the android flash tool. If both can't get you fastboot / firmware flashing, that's it. Hardbrick. Google Pixels don't have "special" hardbrick solving tools, like older OnePlus had. You need to contact Google.

Do you remember what went wrong?
EDIT: Uh, never mind. So you accidentally used the P5 fw. Why on hell would the device accept the P5 fw at all?!
Same problem here: downloaded from a blog the latest firmware. They have linked the pixel 5 firmware and named it as Pixel 6 pro full firmware. Just flashed without looking and now the phone wont boot. No reaction at all, no fast boot or whatsoever. Have filled in a repair request in my google account, because I’ve bought it directly in their store.
Do you think they have a way to find out what went wrong? I meant the phone is not giving any signal, regardless of which button combination I press. Worst case: I have to pay for the repair…

WOW. So even holding volume down and power until you see the fastboot screen wont work? sometimes you have to hold it for a while. I say that because when the December firmware came out I accidentally flashed the wrong region but was able to access bootloader and so was able to rescue myself. So sorry dude. That really sucks.

Yes worst case we'll have for repair but they could have implemented a simple device id check on their script prior flashing anything, especially for the bootloader.
Anyway, I'm alive, in a good health and it's just a phone

You can flash gobbledygook to your phone if you're not careful. You can flash a non-Google phone's image. Flashing just flashes what you tell it to flash.

That sucks. I'm sure you know now, always go straight to the source for everything if possible, firmware, platform tools, drivers, BIOS / UEFI (for computer).
SDK Platform Tools
Get the Google USB Driver
Pixel 6 Pro Factory Images
You can also Google for official pixel firmware and the top search result is what the want. I know it doesn't help you now. Good luck with your phone!

After having played around with the January patch (came from December Europe A4 firmware that was pulled), it seems that the FP scanner got even faster and more reliable, even though it's not stated in the patchnotes. Maybe it's just placebo.

So many folks have reported the exact same thing, I'm really, really curious just how much faster it will seem when I get around to updating.

I noticed how faster it was before I saw everyone else posting about it, so at least no placebo on my end. Hope you find the same.
I know that you tried to get into Fastboot. Pixel 6/6P also has a Recovery mode. I can get to it from a working phone.
I would think that there is someway to boot into Recovery mode from a dead phone via button combos.

Hello,
In the rush of flashing the january update I've flashed by mistake the Pixel 5 image bootloader (my wife's phone)
Yest that's stupid, I've done this every months for years with several Pixel phones, but I was listening to music at the same time and did dl the wrong image...
Anyway my phone is now hard bricked but I'm sure there must be a way to enter the other bootlader slot and/or entering a special recovery tool.
I cannot enter bootloader anymore
Requesting some help as I'd avoid to send it for a reflash...
Thanks !

Hy, how did you flashed? Via adb sideload or?

factory image with modified flash-all.bat
I'll do the exact same process when I'll get my phone back but this time I'll check the image name at least 3 times
