Hardbricked, not even edl mode. Hardware issue? - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Friends,
First I apologise for the WOT.
Background:
My OP 3 died on me last week. It was working at 3.00 pm, I went for a nap and at 4.00 pm woke up to see my phone with a black screen. My volume down key isn't working from even before. I use Havoc OS, TWRP, rooted with Magisk and no modules. Since I am bootloader unlocked, I use the startup screen using the volume up key to navigate between recovery, fastboot etc because of the volume down key not working. My device had roughly 70% charge when it died. Fortunately I had completely backed up my data from the phone to the laptop the previous week along with a TWRP backup.
What I tried:
Connecting it to the charger starts the screen but after the OnePlus logo it starts bootlooping. So not charging even if left on the charger for extended periods of time. Starting with the power button results in identical behaviour. While connected to the charger, from the startup screen, I am able to choose the bootloader and sort of boot into bootloader. But if the charger is unplugged, the phone dies. So not able to use fastboot.
Using the charger, from the startup screen, I am able to choose Recovery (TWRP) but after the OnePlus logo, the TWRP screen flashes and then the phone starts to bootloop. If charger is disconnected, phone dies. So not able to use recovery too.
When trying to hold volume up button for 10 seconds and connecting to laptop, the 9008 driver flashes for a second in Device Manager and vanishes. Phone is not otherwise recognised on laptop even as a charging device. When trying to charge on laptop, the phone behaves as it did on the regular charger ie. bootlooping.
If the MSM tool (version 3.0 and 4.0 as Administrator) is running (with the start button clicked) when I connect the phone holding the volume up button for 10 seconds, it starts the download and then (in one second) in the Tool, I get the message "Try Firehose communication handshake". Then the laptop freezes and I can switch off the laptop only by holding the power button down for 8+ seconds. I have tried both USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports with the same result.
The fact that the laptop freezes makes me suspect a short somewhere. I have ordered a new OP 9 Pro and it was delivered today. Now is there anyway of resurrecting my OP 3 without changing the motherboard?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I remember such behaviour from my OnePlus One back in the day. I solved it by trying numerous different drivers, A LOT of trial and error. But considering it's a 6 year old device and you were still using it as a daily driver, I'm afraid it's not software – as you've also hinted at. I hope it'll be a fun hardware project though! Not my cup of tea ^_^

Update:
Visited OnePlus service center. They initially said that it was only a question of flashing the software and asked me to wait while they flashed it. One hour later, I was informed that an IC in the motherboard seemed to have shorted and that they no longer stock the motherboard of OP 3. Even if they had stock, I was not going to buy it since it simply is not worth that much money to revive a 6 year old phone. Using it as a paper weight now.
End of story.

Sorry to hear that, mate...
Spoiler: RIP

I'm sorry but
not problem, i supposed it , i will send to htc by warranty
Hi,
I had similar situation.
Whent I did flash from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 RuuEurope_2.13.401.3, Wildfire S stopped working. Black blinking screen with power on, without any vibration. Doesn't work service menu, hard reset etc.
I send HTC to service on the warranty. They Repaired it for free.
Service's Raport:
They replaced the motherboard (with new IMEI), memory and the LITEON module.
Phone befor this accident was on Official HTC 2.3.3 without Root.
So, I hope that, the HTC will repair Your Wildfire on warranty.
Good luck

My phone will not power on or take a charge. And it does vibrate 3 times when trying to turn on. I hope I asked this question in the correct area...

It's in Qualcomm Diagnostics Mode, there is a tutorial on how to get out of it but I need to look for it.

Problem - USB supplying power to attached device

I'm getting this notification even though nothing is plugged into the phone. It will lose about 50% battery overnight just because of this. I can tap for more options on the notification but nothing changes. Reboot, factory reset, nothing so far has fixed it. Anyone else seen this?
i have a similar problem too. I tried to charge both of my phones 5x and 6p running nougat via usb c powerbank but my phone transfer the power to the powerbank instead. Tried to change option in the notification it wont work.
I can charge the phone no problem. For some reason, it thinks something is plugged into the USB port. The notification won't go away, and I'm not able to choose any of the options. There are a couple other posts online but no answers yet.
#4
Same here. I can charge the phone, but when I unplug the charger I get a notification that says "USB supplying power to attached device."
I'm running NRD90M on a clean install from factory image. Problem popped up after a few days on new firmware. I have wiped data, cache and dalvik to no avail.
Sounds like a usb port hardware failure...
Just got off the phone with Google and they didn't have an answer either. Nothing helped. So they are replacing the phone.
I was getting the same notification. I'm on O dp4. I was able to fix the problem by downloading ForceDoze from the play store and turning my screen off with the power button. After 30 seconds of my phone sleeping I can wake it up and disable the force doze app and the notification won't return until I plug it back it. The app needs root and you have to enable the notification.
Plugging any cable in whether it was connected on the other end or not would also stop the issue , so you could probably also by a magnetic charger and leave the type c end in.
Same problem here. There's always a notification on screen saying that the phone is supplying power. When I plug in wall charger (original LG), I have to manually select "charge this device" for it to charge.
Hi, has there been any updates on this? I recently purchased a motherboard from here and it is working fine apart from these issues, here are some SS

It obviously discharges battery so fast. Hardly stay on for 10 hours (with no use) It also charges other phones when connected via usb-c usb-c cables.

lenovo p2 stuck in boot made is charger

My Lenovo P2 had 20% battery charged. I plugged the charger and after making sure that fast charging has been started, I left. After 2-3 hours I came back with certainty that the battery would have charged 100%. But unfortunately what I faced was a dead mobile. I unplugged the charger and re plugged it and found a white display with the note Boot mode is ‘charger’ . Now every time I connect charger I face the same note (sometime repeating sometime once) and cell phone does not go beyond this state.
How to fix it?
I am waiting for your response please.
try holding power and volume up and connecting cable just before you press the buttons to go into bootloader mode with the charging status shown...this is the only way i charge my P2..sometimes it doesnt work the first time...so make sure you connect cable just a split second before pressing vol up and power button...try it
In 1st attempt nothing happened. In 2nd attempt the white display with the said note "boot mode is charger" didn't appear. Red led is blinking and screen is black.
pressing and holding the power key + volume down key gives the following page attached as image. click this link

the soft button "start" faced the power key so when i pressed the power key the same loop resumed
click this link
1) press power button for 10mins
2) try to boot into fastboot and from there boot into system
3) fastboot flash twrp and flash any ROM of your choice. Or fastboot flash stock

Thanks for your kind advice. I have done it already . Stock rom was tried. But it stucks while flashing systemchunk4.img . So finally admitted in hospital i mean submitted to the company Lenovo for solution....
should charge
the image that you sent earlier of the bootloader is actually charging the phone...just leave it like that and see if it charges...i hope we talking about the same issue here.
No bro. Its not charging rather its a restart loop. Any how thanks for your time and reply. I have submitted the phone to service center. Let C what they do.. !!

Touchscreen works only sometimes, screen flicker

Hello,
I have a problem with a Galaxy S9. It started acting up today and not registering touches.
It took me many many tries to access the recovery because it just wouldnt let me power down and all possible volume down /up, bixby and power combinations didnt seem to work and the screen often just stayed black while giving vibrations. So I finally were able to access recovery after 20 tries with vol down, bixby, power and then quickly change it to vol up.
Now comes the questions what I should do to troubleshoot. The recovery menu seemed pretty laggy as well.
I wiped cache and restarted, but no improvements. Touchscreen works every 30th press, screen sometimes flickers.
Issues:
Touchscreen doesnt work (every 30th press approximately)
accessing recovery is a game of luck
screen flickers (sometimes bright flashes) I attached a picture of one of those seizures
random vibrations
Last resort is a complete wipe but I'm hesitant because it seems likely to be a hardware issue and replacing the screen wouldn't require the need to delete all data.
I hope someone has an idea. What confused me most were the issue accessing recovery.
Thanks and Best Regards.

It's a issue with samsung. They dont know what it is. Either the screen or hardware. If it's under warranty that's your only option. Look up samsung green screen and you'll see

I'll check if the warranty is still valid. I dont know if you can help with this question as well:
The screen has had a little unobtrusive crack in one corner for a while, I suppose when they do a hardware repair they will have to replace the screen as well and charge for it? Or is it irrelevant in a warranty case?
Thanks and BR

If its damaged in any form you will have to pay

Galaxy a50 data recovery.

Hey, so i broke my phone, because it fell from a high place, and it broke the display completely. The mainboard is okay.
I really need a way to acces my data. luckily i have twrp installed, and i am able to reboot it there, and the touchscreen appears to be working.
I have to blindly touch the screen to enable MTP in the twrp. i have the older twrp, where you have to manually enable it, but dont know where is it. Can someone guide me?
Assuming that touch still works try entering recovery mode , then connect it to a pc and then try to do the swipe to unlock in twrp
It should be about .5 to 1 inch from bottom to top , maybe even closer to the bottom of it worked and twrp is unlocked you should see the phone being dectected , then try get to touch mount , it should be a little more up and to the left than the swipe to unlock , then on the bottom right corner you should have the option to monut . Attached a picture I found that may help locating the buttons

You could also try a usb hub and connecr your phone to a hdmi display + mouse and keyboard , but those can cost 25 USD and upward , good luck!
Edit:typo
Sadly, it does not show up in my computer. But i know i did enable mtp, because twrp freezes for a sec or two when i enable it. The usb datalines might be damaged, as i see it, because with the official charger, my usb diagnostic thing reads 5.13 volts, with 0,21 amps. RIP i guess, or i dont know what to do other than pay someone to fix it.
I tried ADB sideload too, but it didnt work either.
Guess i have to buy a new phone, or pay half of the original price to get it fixed, wich is not something that worth it.
I think im gonna buy a new phone, and let this puppy rest for a while, then i'll buy a cheap LCD screen for it, then repair the screen myself.
Edit: the phone is a little warm, if charged. hope nothing is wrong with the battery. It seems to be bootlooping, but when the system startup finishes, i could hear facebook's notif sound, so data is probably fine, i'm just unable to get it out from there.
Assuming if there's any problem with the USB port, i wont try the hdmi, mouse, keyboard method.

Can you boot system if so put the latest smart switch on you PC an backup your data .
if you have twrp .. then you don't have to worry .. just press and hold volume down and power button for 6-7 seconds .. when the phone vibrates release the volume down button only and press and hold volume up .. (don't release the power button yet) wait 2 seconds and then release the power button.. so now you're only pressing the volume up ... press hold it for 7-8 seconds... your phone will get into twrp ..
connect your phone to your pc.. and voila your internal storage is on your pc..
p.s- don't forget to install Samsung drivers before you do this...
p.s - it's too late for this solution thou but if you're still searching for solution... this will help and only works if twrp is already there.
