phone won't turn on unless.. - Captivate General

when my phone is off and i go to turn it on the only way it will turn on...is if i hold the volume buttons and power while attaching charging cable. That is the only way my phone will turn on!!! Any thoughts?
I'm running 2.2 rooted.

As long as that combo gets you to downloading mode then flash back to stock.

[Q] Phone locked when 100% charged

Hi, I have the Motorola XT926 with Android version 4.1.2. Something weird it's happening, when not plugged with charger the phone runs normally, but when I plug it to charge it at night, and unplug it, the phone seems to be blocked. Press power button but it won't turn on, then I have to reset by pressing volume up + volume down + power and the it start up. So, what you think could be?

Hello.
Try this:
- Disable or remove ALL smartactions. If same again, do a factory reset and wipe cache. If problem still persists take the phone back to shop and replace it. :fingers-crossed:

[Q] HTC one S wont start, no blinking, no led

Hi guys !
My HTC One S died yesterday just before going to bed.
It was 10% battery, I used it for 10-15mn and it went down to 3% and then 1% and shut down just before I plug it to the wall charger.
I let it there for 5mn and tried to power it on but nothing happened. I noticed that the charging led was not even working.
I let it overnight charging and this morning, still nothing. I tried to enter bootloader with power+volume down, nothing happen
This morning, I tried :
- 2 hours usb charging, not detected by the computer, no led, won't start even in bootloader
- 2 hours wall charger charging. Still no led, won't start
Any idea on what to try ?

Ok, simulated battery pull.
hold the phone under bright light (sensor see's the light and allows to power on, something about a feature to prevent resetting while the phone is in your pocket). press power button, press and hold power button if that doesn't work.

Maybe it is locked up, and really has been charging. Press and hold power button for 10 seconds.
Some have had success pulling the sim card, and then pressing the power button. Then when it turns on reinserting sim card.

Factory Reset option: would erase phone storage though.
If you can’t turn HTC One S on or access settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the hardware buttons on HTC One S.
Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then press and hold the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button.

Others have switched to trying to charge it connected to USB port and have it suddenly come back to life after a while.
Thanks for the answer

Will try this one !
In fact it really looks like it's dead : no led, nothing happen when I let it charge (it's not even hot) and nothing happen when I push all the possible buttons combinations :crying:
Read my post. Try to do with linux first.

Device only showing google boot screen

My device turned off and I can't turn it back on. Tried holding volume button but nothing. However if I put it on charge it vibrates shows the black screen with google on an then switches off and repeats without me pressing anything. If I hold volume down it goes to fast boot but quicky reboots before i can do anything.

Seeing that it is trying to boot when plugged into charger, I am guessing a battery issue. Try If u could Keep it turned off while connected to charger and let it charge for an hour. Then try turning it on. Hope it works after that
I've had this before. Leave it alone for like an hour being off. Then just hold the power button down. Just keep holding and it eventually comes back to life

HTC U11 Turned Itself Off and Not Booting

So, I am on the Stock U11 ROM unrooted and on Android 7.1.1.
The phone was charging by my side, on my desk.
It reached 100%, but I did not unplug it.
I had the keep screen on while charging setting, turned on.
After about 30 minutes it turned off. I noticed the green notification light (fully charged indication) had turned off.
And when I checked, the phone had turned off. By itself.
Now I am trying to turn it on, nothing happens.
I try to hold the power button (for ~30 seconds) to force a reboot, nothing happens.
Can anyone help me. It is under warranty though. So, I will contact HTC about this. But I wanted to check if there are others that faced this same problem.
Thanks
Try power button and volume down
