[Q] power issues - General Questions and Answers

Good morning,
When I power off my HTC Aria and plugged it in for charging, it comes back on in the boot mode Why? and the phone has been rooted but not flashed with a new rom yet
GARIS001

Maybe a bad root or so?

The aria can't be charged when turned off. The phone automatically turns on and goes to recovery for charging to work. I would suggest not turning your phone off before charging.

[Q] Screen won't turn on.

I've been running the latest CM10 M release for a couple weeks now. Today I upgraded to the latest modems. Everything was working great for a few hours when my phone randomly shut off and now won't turn back on.
I've tried pulling the battery and charging. Can't ever see anything on the screen although it does vibrate sometimes when I hold the power button. LED will turn on when charging.
Any ideas or suggestions?
See if you're able to boot straight into download or recovery, thus will show intact boot and recovery systems.
One other test, pull battery and with phone off plug into your PC if it shows a red light its likely hard bricked.
I had the unfortunate experience of flashing wrong kernel and bricked my phone was not going to recovery or download. However if you can get to these then it may be a soft brick and restore with odin

Once my phone got stuck because I flashed a new recovery that wasn't compatible with my phone so each time I tried to boot into recovery or tried to turn on the phone nothing would happen. The only thing that got my phone working again was to go into download mode (Odin) by holding power, volume down and home buttona and than canceling it. from there the Rom started working again. I don't know if it will help in your case but you can always try.
That was a strange experience. Left it plugged in for a few hours. Came back, and was able to boot normally... although the battery was extremely low despite being plugged in for a few hours. No problems since then.
Congrats =)
Seems like disaster was avoided.

Do you know what percent your phone turned off at? Around what percent? Was it 23-25%?

[Q] HTC Inspire 4G maybe dead?

Hello xda-developers,
Long version: I have a HTC Inspire 4G device, a month ago i was doing a phone call for at least 10 minutes (the only thing I remember when I made the phone-call the battery bar percentage was 29% (according to GO Power Master app)), The phone shut down suddenly without notice. I tried to turn it on, it wont turn on, i went back home and i put it for charging, the LED was working (I thought it's down because power is low), then when I tried to open it, the phone was stuck on the HTC Logo and keeps rebooting.. I kept the phone for 2 hours in that case rebooting and rebooting until i touched it to find it's overheated. I removed the charging cable, the battery. Since that time whenever I want to turn on the phone, it won't. I removed the battery for 3 weeks now and i put it back, nothing changed. + no orange LED when putting the charging cable + it doesn't get detected on my PC + it gets OVERHEATED every time when putting the charge cable without being able to turn it on.
TL;DR version: HTC Inspire 4G won't turn on, gets overheated when putting on charge + no orange (charging) LED +can't be detected on PC
I don't know what to do, please let me know if there is something I can fix, Thanks for your time.
UP Please.
Can someone tell me what to do, please?

[Q] Phone automatically turns on when connecting it to charger

I have never had this issue before, if the phone was off and I plugged it in to charge it would stay off and charge and if I pressed the volume it would show a image of a battery being charged. Now when the phone is off and I plug it in the wall charger it turns off, if the phone is on and charging and I try to turn it off while charging it would power off but immediately turn back on. I am on stock at&t with their latest official update.
I have not changed anything in the phone or installed any new apps. What would be like to cause this and could it be fixed?

So that's problem? I don't see there any problem... When phone is in off state & you plug it in charger, it will show your battery charging (aka Charge only). Again if you will turn off charging phone it will always boot to charge only mode... So that's normal.

No the phone never turned on before like to the android OS, it just charged. Now it turns completely on when the phone is off and it gets plugged into the charger.
Try reflash AT&T 125 final ICS via RSD lite. That issue was on Cmdefy recovery customs roms & it was solved by installing BMM. I think you'll need to root & install BMM (aka Boot Menu Manager) to check if phone in off state turn yellowish led when connecting to charger (This feature is on BMM 0.3.4).

Phone crashed and won't turn back on

I have a stock phone HTC One (M8) that has never been rooted. Today I pulled my phone out of my pocket and it wouldn't turn on. I've tried:
pressing the power button along with the volume up
Pressing power and volume down
Pressing power and volume up and down
I took it to the Verizon store and they said they would have to ship a refurb out to me. I wanted to check this forum to see if anyone has ideas before I get a refurb.
Thanks in advance!
Simular situation - will not power up or hold charge
Im S-off and unlocked .... I downloaded the new RUU 4.4.4 and everything was fine. the next day the battery drained completely and I plugged the charging cord in. I got the battery icon in the center of the screen and 0% life. The orange light is blinking, but the battery level doesn't change. I cannot get it to power up or get into the bootloader. Once I unplug the power cable the unit doesn't power on. if the keep the unit plugged In for a power source I'm still unable to boot. I'm totally out off ideas ... can I get someone to respond to help me out in this desperate time.

Can you try a different charger and cable? The blinking orange light is what they do when they are completely dead. Starts out blinking and wont go solid until enough charge is present to actually boot the phone.
I just upgraded to 4.4.4 as well maybe 3-4 days ago. I had been able to charge the phone a couple of times without issue right up until it wouldn't turn on yesterday.
I left the phone off the charger overnight and tried rebooting again this morning, and nothing.

Same here .. Been on the charging cord for a few days without any change in battery %.
Dodat ... Is there anyway to revive the M8 to accept the charge?

Try this:
Battery is fully charged, but the device does not turn on
Plug device into the provided HTC wall charger that came with the device.
Press and hold the Power, Volume up and Volume down keys for 1 - 2 full minutes. The battery should re-calibrate and the device will then turn on.
or
Battery shows less than 0% charge level
Plug device into the provided HTC wall charger that came with the device.
Charge the device until the LED indicator glows solid red.
Attempt to power the device on as usual. If it will not power on, press and hold the Power and Volume up keys for 10 seconds while still on the charger.
I tried this just now, nothing.
When I hook up the charger, I don't get any lights to indicate that the phone is charging.
It's like the phone is bricked, but I haven't messed with any ROMs at all. I'm completely stock and locked.

I am unlocked but am having the same problem. I've had the phone since almost launch day and it's been fine until now.....all of a sudden it won't charge. I've tried many different cables and chargers that I know work, but nothing gives.
Were you able to figure anything out? Really don't want to have to get a refurb as I don't think I'll be able to get it rooted/unlocked anymore.
edit: After letting it "charge" for about an hour I was able to turn the phone back on. It said the battery was at 30% but was draining like 2% every 15-20 seconds. Looking at the settings it said the battery state was unkown (where it usually says not charging or charging). Something is definitely doing on here, but I have no idea what. I tried rebooting to recovery from the ROM but it just shut off. Now it's doing the same thing again (0%, won't turn on). Ugh!

[Q] Phone Issue,maybe bootloader

Sorry for the lack of clarity in the title. I'm running CM11 hopefully 12 after I get this issue resolved, and CWM. The issue I'm started after a CM11 Milestone and what happen is that when I have my phone plugged in off and charging, if I try to turn it on with the cable plugged in all it will do is vibrate and show the battery. If i take it off the charger the next time I go to turn it on it will turn on. If I don't have the phone plugged in it will still vibrate the first time and show nothing and then turn on normally after. Do I have to reinstall CWM or something and how would I do it? Thanks.
