Hello guys ,
A few drops of water fell on the back of my phone when i was changing the battery . the phone ceased to boot at first. after that i dried up the phone overnight and it still dint work. I took it to the samsung service center and they could just clean up (Samsung India doesnt support Gnex) the parts.
Now my phone display is working inconsistently . it works perfectly fine for a while and then it goes of.
whenever i try to wake it using the power button , the display works for a fraction of a second and then turns off.
even thought the display is off the touch is working. I'm able to take pictures and unlock the phone when the display isnt working.
it receives messages and notification sounds are working.
once i tried to call the phone when the display wasn't working and the phone call suddenly brought the display to life.
Can anyone of u guess whats wrong and needs to be replaced?
since the display is working fine for sometime, i assume it maybe the problem with a connection somewhere which has become loose ?
The entire display and digitizer costs 190$ (doesn't include shipping to India which will cost a bomb), I'm not willing to spend that much since the new nexus's are almost here.
anyone ?? anything ??
Okay, so a little background. I was at the gym last night, warming up with jogging on a treadmill. While I was running, I was listening to music through these horrible, horrible headphones. When they are plugged in, sometimes the phone will skip tracks forward or backward for no reason whatsoever, even when I didn't press a button. This was happening last night at the gym, and then all of the sudden, I heard this static crack and my phone turned off. Now my phone won't turn back on. I have tried everything. The phone was charged to about 75%, was running the new unofficial CM12 ROM, and was perfectly fine before the headphones zapped the life out of my phone. I'm almost positive it had nothing to do with the ROM. I have tried almost everything to get it to turn back on, holding the power button for a full minute, the power up and volume down combo for a hard reset, letting the phone sit for a while, even letting it sit on the charger for a while. It won't even take a charge now. It's been a full 12 hours of phone inactivity. Any suggestions?
If it still does not power up, your choices are:
Instant replacement: Verizon store
If you have 6 days with another phone: get online with HTC and get warranteed
I've had better luck dealing with HTC directly. Third party refurbs have a bad reputation
on many posts all over.
Hope it suddenly starts so you can keep trucking...

So you think it's broken? It just seems weird for it to be broken after it was working perfectly fine. Plus, I am trying to buy a subsidized Nexus 6 through Verizon, but it's not in stores yet, so I don't want to get the phone replaced if I'm going to buy a new one. It's a dilemna

Hope it doesn't come to this: if it's dead, HTC owes you a warranty repair/replace. You don't want to be left
with a doorstop. Worst case: you get it fixed, treat new one like your Princess, then sell it on Swappa or EBay
when you get your hands on the Nexus 6.

I had the power button fail in mine. Drove me nuts too. In the end it wasn't all that terrible to replace and cost about $10. what happens if you sorta play with the power button and wiggle it etc...?
You are still getting the charge light too right?
Success! It finally charges now! It wouldn't charge before. For a whole day it wouldn't turn on with any button combo. For a whole day it wouldn't take any charge. Until now. I plugged it into my laptop and voila! The orange light started flashing, and it finally got to the point where the orange light is stable. It is currently now accepting charge from a power outlet, and I assume it will turn on. I'm not gonna push it yet though. But now it charges, so it will work! Thank god.
A valuable lesson was learned throughout this process (and it applies to daily life): never give up and always be persistent! Even if you have a good connection, and suddenly those connections break, you can still rebuild them again. You can still fix these connections (relationships in life) will a little hard work!
My phone just did this again. This time I'm guessing it is a bug with the unofficial CM12 Android 5.0 ROM on high volume. When my headphones are in and I'm playing music, usually at the highest volume, the phone sort of makes this weird static noise and then turns off. Hopefully this time my phone turns on, and hopefully it doesn't take a day and a half to accept a charge. I fixed it before by pluggin it into my laptop, but now that won't work. I guess it's a waiting game. Idk, I just hope it works
You sure its not your headsets causing the problems? I have ran the same ROM vol high using my klipsch earbuds and no issues. Will test again to see

I'm not totally sure. I mean it still could be. I hate these damn headphones. It's fairly annoying though tbh. I have no idea when it will be open to accepting a charge. I just kind of have to see if it'll turn on. I guess I can check again with another pair of headphones when groupon finally sends them. I'm just nervous that if it happens again, I'll have to wait again. Let me know what happens with your phone. Also, I'm open to any suggestions on how to turn my phone back on or charge it again. Thanks.
How many songs played before your phone dies?

It depends. Like the first time it shut off I was listening to one song on full volume. Then after it finally booted up, I was listening to the same song on high volume and it turned off again, but that time it booted back up. This time however, I was listening to a different song and it happened. It's not really a matter of songs played, but rather which song is played. I'm not totally sure though. It's just stupid.
OK I played 4 songs now and did hear a buzzing sound but phone didn't shut off or anything. Remember this ROM is still alpha build status. You could try backing up your phone and flash another ROM and see if you can recreate the issue. That way you know for sure if it was ROM or headphone related
I've heard this buzzing in practically every aosp ROM for the m7. It isn't often but does happen occasionally. It had never caused a reboot or shutdown. My guess is that the headphones are bad. I would stop using those lol.
I guess it was the headphones. Finally got new ones, and everything is fine. I think 5.0 definitely aided it though. My phone turned back on a few nights ago, and I forgot to mention it. Every time I've had to wait almost exactly 24 hours to charge it again. It almost seems like a defense mechanism. But alas, it worked!
Hello,
I just opened my phone to change the charging port with a new one because the old one was so loose that charging the phone was a pain in the butt. And after months of waiting I finally decided to teardown my phone just like in one youtube video. I took a lot of risk and time and did everything the way I was supposed to do and I had a success! The phone booted up everything was working as normal and this usb charging port was just like a new. But sadly I started receiving SMS messages because my phone had been turned off for some time and didn't hear any sound. Most of the times it is on a vibration mode but this time it wasn't. The only thing I could hear was a little tapping noise that you can hear only once before the sound goes on and that's it. There's a vibration jsut as usual there's just no sound and it definitely is a hardware problem because I have it on my phone and also can hear the person talking through the front speaker but the bottom one is definitely not working and I have no idea why when I made everything like it was supposed to be (I guess). What do you think happened and should I open it and tear it down again? Even if I open it what am I supposed to do?
Thank you
Hi guys
Ive been trying to choose a dasg cam but im tginkibg abouthing about getting one these instead.
I'm just wondering how good they really are or are they just a gimmick.
Some things that really need to know are.
1. How good is the front camera as in the spec it says that it's only 30fps where as I would have preferred 60fps.
2. Would I be able to hard wire it to the car and leave it on all the time and then view it over wifi from my phone using an android app.
Other than these two things. I really just want to know how food they are and if the mirror is really a good mirror and not just a dull reflective surface.
And help would be really good
Anyone ??
If you left it on all the time it would drain your battery. But with a 12v adapter to micro use would be possible with correct wiring.
I don't have anything to compare camera to other than the other mirrors I own. Which they said where 1080p but really 720p. Only my A33x5 is true 1080p.
Mirror works like normally mirror. The new a33x5 screen is big improvement over a23. But still hard to see in sunny conditions
My use is really only recorder and google maps. If you need other features I would suggest something dedicated or double din. If you just want recorder only, then buy dedicated one for same price.
Thanks for the reply.
I have one of those battery savers that would cut the power before it would drain or damage my battery so I should be okay on that front.
But are you able to view the camera from an Android phone using an app (most connect using a wifi connection )?
Like I said I was really just in the market for a dash cam but I can see the benefit of a mirror with not only a dash cam but also a reversing, fm transmitter...etc
Help needed
Hy guys
I am in desperate need of help, please forgive me if this is not the exact place for my request.
I own a full hd rearview mirror dash camera, that also has 3g and android. The problem (until three days ago everything has excellent...) is that it got stuck on...upgradin android, optimizing app 1 of 1. I saw that this happens on android, but the issue with my mirror-tablet-camera is that IT ONLY HAS ONE BUTTON! So I have no volume up button in order to start a recovery mode or something. It has a reset button, but it is useless...in this case. I tryedkeeping the reset pushed 10 seconds, 20, 30, also tryed pushing iti while booting, tryed pushing the power repeatedly while booting, keeping the power pressed 10-20-30 seconds....nothing helped!! Any idea? Help? Please? Thank you.

Hello Gents,
I have Moto G5, all was working since i bought it, after two years from buying the battery went crazy recharge to 70% and stop charging
then while I use the phone the battery suddenly drop and drop sharply maybe from 50 to 10 and then turned off
after that I charged It and turned the mobile phone on, it turns on and reaches to the home screen and all is good, after while it turns off and restart
this happened too much so I decided to change the battery, after I bought new battery and put it into the phone, The phone turned on with no sound no speakers no Sim signals (once work and once not)
Wifi Works camera work but camera video no recording it works but when I click on record it makes no recording
also mic not working, and finally the phone restarts again and again
i made hard reset, and same problems, unlocked bootloader and flashed Linageos sim cards once work and once not, and the degree of restarting decreased a little bit, but still no sound no mic and same problems as I mentioned
so i flashed again the stock rom and also same problems and sim cards didn't work
I went to a technician he cant detect the error but he cleaned the speakers after cleaning he heard sound but for once, once the device restarted again there were no sound
and so on.
so please if someone could help
Yes I think I understand. You might have forgotten to get all reconnected, or secure at least. I had an issue where a screen replacement took away the quick gestures for torch, camera and left screen shot. Also during calls it was like it was on my ear and the screen was black until I ended the call using the power. Look at the mic on the bottom, as that's where most phone share a common point for connection I if it's like any other moto they just sit in there nothing to screw in except that plate over it
