BIG WEIRD Fuze problem PLZ Help

Ok people let me tell you i love my fuze and i have followed all directions to updating my rom and i had a nice new cooked rom and everything was running fine until one day i go and take my phone off the charger and it turns off as if it had no power from the battery so then i try to turn it back on and still nothing :O "Sad FacE" then after staring at my phone for 20 minutes in complete disbeleive i started being creative starting with a soft reset to a hard reset , also take note when i put my phone back on the charger the light that breathes no longer came on, then i got my phone to boot to hard-spl olinox 1.90 and it said no boot image and sat there so then i turn the phone off and did a rom update thru my hard spl after updating the phone went to reset but only turned off and the only thing i can pull up is hard spl. plz help it would be so so so much appreciated and im not slow at computers so u wont have to explain everything to me i do programming but never cooked a rom or delt with this

Sounds like you may have a hardware problem; maybe there was a power surge or something and part of the phone got fried. Just a guess, but sorry, man. Could it have gotten wet somehow?
I guess the other possibility is that the battery is just completely dead. You can get into bootloader without a battery (pull the battery, plug it in, and you'll see). You can even flash, but you can't boot up. Try cleaning the contacts, and make sure they're contacting the battery electrodes. Now that I think about it more, I bet it's just the battery, or it's related to the battery (maybe the usb port is screwed). If this fails, go buy a cheap battery for the phone and try it out. If that doesn't work, just flash the stock rom and then the stock spl and return it for warranty. All isn't lost.

Thnx
ok thank you for you're reply. the battery is good i can flash rom off my micro sd card with out power source to phone also the phone had dropped about a foot from the ground onto carpet the same time i started having this problem im wondering if somethen is loose idk. im figuren if the phone can boot olinex on its own then it is still working as in the screen has full fuction as far as i know all buttons work, as i was looking into this phone im wondering if the thing that stops ur phone from charging and turning on when its over heating might be damaged. there is no warranty so im tryen to look into this as much as possible

GOOD NEWS
Ok I have no idea what was wrong with my phone but i found a htc service manual and disassembled my phone then put it back together and hoped for the best and press the power button and boom wala it came on to the at&t flash logo and problem solved all help was appreciated and i hope to help other peeps out as well and cooking up some roms eventualy

You were more help than AT&T i took my phone into the store and told them my problem and they went straight to the idea of a new phone and i kinda got mad and explain to him i dont want your phones i wanna fix mine and he told me it was bricked and i need to take it to a corperate AT&T n the closest one was about 6 hour drive so i left lol so thanks for ur help

That's i had the same prob. once and after a week of frustration, i noticed my reset button was cocked to one side slightly, after jabbing my styles at it a few time presto my POS started worken again

[Q] Please help, bricked Nexus S 4G

I did search, both here and google, and have not come across a similar problem.
I picked up a nexus s 4g recently and unlocked the bootloader using fastboot oem unlock, flashed clockwork mod recovery on, and installed cyanogen 7. I then found out I'm a complete idiot because that rom was made for the GSM phone, and the radio doesn't work.
Tried to use fastboot to load an original rom back on, which failed, so found a windows machine and installed Odin, followed a tutorial on how to flash back to stock, Odin reported a pass, but the phone will no longer turn on.
No amount of taking the battery out, button combos, or charging has changed this.
I had about 70% battery when I tried to flash with Odin, so I'm fairly sure it's not a battery issue.
I also tried to adb devices with the phone hooked up, and nothing was found, so it shouldnt be an unresponsive screen.
Help?

did you make a nand?

I did not. Not sure if it would help, because I can probably download someone elses nand but I don't know how to do anything with it with my phone not powering on
I could be completely wrong about that, not very familiar with nandroid.

You can't get it into download mode?

Correct.
Essentially the phone is dead, it will not respond to anything.
Very similar to the battery not being installed, but I know for certain the battery has a charge.

I just checked the battery, and I retract my previous statements. 560mAh and 3.08 volts. Would that be low to the point of it not taking a charge through the charger?
I have it on a special charger directly on the terminals right now, I will post results once its through.

Read in the fascinate forum that a guy purposely flash a rom from a different device ans used Odin to revert back, also he gave a tip that one should keep trying to use Odin if the first try didn't work. Not sure if this will help never happened to me...

Fully charged battery did not help

Try what they used to suggest with the epic when it was stubborn. Remove the battery. Plug the usb cable into the phone then into the computer. Try to put it into download mode. If that doesn't work, I can't think of anything else. If you have insurance, maybe they'll swap it when they see it's dead for a refurb. Be nice and play dumb. Tell them something like it froze one time and you pulled the battery and after that it wouldn't turn back on.

I could use my insurance, but its $100 bucks now. Sprint really changed their policy on that.
I also don't really want a refurb phone, when mine was NIB 3 days ago. I realize it's my fault but still.

my Nexus S won't boot up, but with battery plugged in it will heat up ...

:crying: any ideas ?
everything was working perfectly and i didn't do anything , just when my first battery ran out , i shut it down and switch second battery then it just doesn't boot up anymore ... even with data cable connect with charger or PC, because usually it will show a charging animation when system isn't booted up ...
and one thing strange is that when i plug in my battery , phone doesn't boot up but it still heat up like i am using it ...
a little help please ...

Same issue with mine. Yesterday, 8/20/12, I broke a sim card connector pin and Nexus S wouldn't recognize sim card after a reboot. Rebooted the device again after the warning message: Sim card not detected/found.
Now Nexus S won't boot. Computers (Windows & OSX) can't recognize it's connected and 5 different charges won't show that the battery is charging. Battery still has a charge as I tested it in another Nexus S. When the battery is in, the device heats up. When connected to a power source, the device heats up.
Used Unbrickable resurrector with no success. UR shows: Device not found, No device detected.
Finally, I was running Jelly Bean from OTA update and not rooted. I noticed that in the past week or two the stock Andoird keyboard would cause force closing of apps or exceed processor threshold of 35% even if there was no program running. Google Now was also sucking the battery after the JB update. Turned that battery drain off on the other Nexus. Also, the Android Media process was taking a drain on the processor. Usually running at 40-50%.
Bought this used from CowBoom and hoping the extended warranty will replace or fix the broken sim card connector and unbrick the phone.
Luckily I have an iPhone 4S and a 2 yr old HTC Desire to turn to.
I've read on another thread, perhaps?, that two other users in the past week or so have had this same problem.

Same happened to me. The Unbrickable resurrector also didnt detect the phone. so i made the Unbrickable Hardware Mod (httpxx://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566475) remove the xx from httpxx. now my phone is being detected and the tool is able to load its files. but still the phone is dead, no thing happens and the tool shows no device found after it loads the files. but when i picked GALAXY S from the drop down menu. the tool loads the files and now both the tool and the phone shows download mode with an android shoveling dirt. heimdall now detects the phone but it doesnt work caz its not a GALAXY S. So let us know what happens if u try this mod. cheers

The exact same thing happened to me. Strangely, it's happening with JB roms. And yeah, i told my problem in a very educated way on the ROM topic and they simply deleted the post, how nice.
Anyway, i just sent the phone to the warranty almost three weeks ago, i'm waiting for them to fix it or give me a new one.

well ... i don't have these tools to do hardware level of modifications ...
anyway , i just send to repair , i think , the motherborad or something should be replaced ...
i was thinking about buying a new phone such as Galaxy Nexus if my Nexus S can not be repaired or way too expensive to repair...

i had same issue a few days after upgrading to JB JRO03E. i got the main board replaced under warranty. took about 2 and half weeks.
the phone came back with GB installed but OTA'd to ICS then JB JRO03L.

I had the same issue running cm10-0823. Screen froze while sitting idle. Pulled and replaced battery, and phone won't come back.
Looks like cm10/jb is causing some burn-out in circuit board; cpu, memory...?

as i have heard is that new bootloader messes with hummingbird CPU ...

I have exactly the same problem I flashed Codename Android ROM 3.4.1, done some overclocking (only 1200 MHz) and the device crashed. Well, nothing unusual. But I removed the battery, I think it was just when the device was rebooting - I think display turned on, I noticed some flash when the battery was already removed.
I tried to turn on the device, but it's dead. Display doesn't turn on, UnBrickable Resurrector says device not found.
I can send the phone to the warranty, but it's unlocked. Do you think they will find out it's unlocked? Even if the download mod doesn't work etc?
What should I do?

Well, I happened to end up with the same problem. Installed latest cm 10 nightly, started rebooting my phone. The moment I restarted it from CWM I realised that I forgot to flash some mod in CWM so I pulled the battery to go into recovery. Phone bricked, no input at all. Sent my phone on warranty, I hope they won't mind it had unlocked bootloader and cm10 on it ;P

That's just a bit stupid to be honest, pulling the battery while booting why not just wait?

Now I know it's stupid. Do you think they will repair it even though it's cm flashed and unlocked?

i sent mine to repair and they fixed without paying a dime!

Cascabreu, you just made my day Well, I just have to wait now

The mainboard is fried. No way of knowing previous state of your phone. They will just replace the board.

I had the same issue back in August just after I flashed 4.1.1/JRO03E. It just died one day while listening to music. Took about 3 weeks to get the mainboard replaced under warranty. It came back bootloader unlocked and with Gingerbread 2.3.3 installed.

No response.

Phone was working fine this morning, screen flashed and phone vibrated, I went to unlock it, nothing. Tried to power it on, thinking it had powered off, nothing. No response at all. I had just plugged in a MicroUSB to USB adapter with a USB flash drive plugged in when this happened.
No boot to recovery, no boot to download mode. No charging light when plugged into wall or laptop.
Any help?

If I return it to my local store, and ask for a replacement exchange, what are the chances of them finding out it's rooted? If I can't turn it on, can they?

Verizon doesnt give replacement phones in store unless its under 14 days old. You just need to call them and they will next day air a replacement. As for the phone when you plug it in does it show a led light or the battery icon on the screen? Also was the battery extremely low when it went off?

Wasn't aware of that, thanks. This was my first phone to have an issue...
When I plug it in, there is no light. No reaction of any kind. The battery was ~90%, I had taken it off the charger and made a call or two.
P.S. Any chance a USB Jig would be able to get my phone into download mode? Once there, I would have no problem getting to stock and starting from scratch...

What recovery do you use?

TWRP, but I can't get it to boot at all.

does it vibrate?
Last resort would be something called heimdall or something like that. I don't know if it will work but supposedly on older samsung phones it is the ultimate last resort even when odin doesn't work. Just google it and try to find some info.

Doesn't vibrate. Isn't heimdall for Mac?

Just downloaded and ran Heimdall, no recognition of my phone with stock cord or after market cord.
Edit: I guess at this point I just want to make know if there is any way for Verizon to find out my phone is rooted, and the exact process of getting it replaced?

Heimdall wont do anything for you since it connects to the phone the same way odin does, and you still have to be in download mode. If it doesnt vibrate or react in anyway when pluggin it in then its safe to say its dead. You should be safe switching it out as a dead phone with verizon too. You should call them early in the day so the phone will get sent out that day too, if they dont offer to next day air it then tell them you need the phone asap and they will free of charge (you may just need to tell them you need it and you lost all ur data, ect and they will help you out). Sometimes they will say you will receive it in 2-3 days free of charge, which is unacceptable.

Alright, I'm guessing I just ship mine back to them in the same box or...?
Thanks for the help, too.

Ya you will get a replacement phone with no back cover, you keep your sim card and back cover. There will be a shipping label for the return shipping which you can either drop off at a fedex or usps location. You have 5 days to return the bad phone from the day you get the replacement. They will explain everything to you on the phone.

Alright, so I'm really nervous about making this call. If I send it in, and they get it working enough to run their tests, and it comes up rooted, I don't have the money to pay for the phone at full retail price. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do? I know a lot of people brick their phones by misfollowing instructions, or flashing things they shouldn't be, but I did neither of which. The phone just shut down, and won't turn back on.
Sending the phone to a 3rd party service is also not possible for me, at this time.
Edit: Just found this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1981582), which sounds almost exactly like what happened to mine. So I guess my chances should be good of getting a replacement, without any troubles. I tried to find other threads involving people who sent in bricked phone to find their experiences, but I didn't know quite what to search for..

[Q] Motorola RAZR HD XT925 Doesn't Start (Blinking Green LED)

Hello. I have problems with my device, a Motorola Razr xt925 HD. It doesn't start, it just keeps the green led blinking when connected to wall charger, and when I plug the USB, makes a sound of a new device detected but only for a few seconds then it makes a sound of an unplugged device, and so on. It doesn't respond to any combination of buttons. I let it charging overnight, even though the battery was nearly full before this happened. Don't know if this is relevant but before this happened, I was going to flash stock Retail Brazil firmware by fastboot and got a flash failure. I turned it off and then it wouldn't turn on again. I never had this happened, I had problems but I always solved them all. Not this time hopefully you guys can help me or tell me what it could be, because I doubt it was the battery. I leave you a video showing my case.

i dont know for certain but the only time i see that green light is when battery is ou and i put it to chrge. Could your phone be in apfastboot and can t charge. It is a bit of a tough situation to troubleshoot.
Did you try keys combo to put it in fastboot, and test it by flashing
or maybe use rsd lite see if it shows you device connected? maybe then you can flash stock
i am sure there are other possibilities, let s hear from you

There's no way to enter in Fastboot by key combos and RSD lite doesn't show my device :/ maybe I need a factory cable, just in case that the battery is empty. I need more suggestions please

me paso lo mismo
did you find any solution?

im having this problem after i start using KK 4.4.2 seems like the phone go to sleeping mood by it self while my screen is locked so i have to keep clicking at power and volume up and down to restart the device now im looking for an update or a fix for this problem, another problem is the device WIFI do not catch my house signal while im away 10 feet from the house the software have bugs

I've been using CM 11 (KK 4.4.4) with no issues. This is a flash problem or maybe the battery. My phone is still dead btw I see that two more people are having the same problem here... we need a solution please.

i think your your device is dead.
this exact thing happened to me.
it happened on september, i was forced to get a new device.
i love this phone but it was dead.
i hope a fix comes through i would like to have it back

I ll take one of your hand, I need parts if interested

Any update with this? Did you try with a factory cable?

I'm going through the same thing , I read the other day that and the driver installed and nothing more .
keep trying to revive my device.

I'm going through the same thing. When I plug it into my pc , under device manager it shows "Human Interface Device" then it unmounts itself then remounts itself then unmounts. Over and over..... I've even replaced the battery.

I was running stock rom with just root, phone was working great. phone rebooted, screen never came back on but when i connect it to my computer it sees it in adb..........
Any advice would be great.
Thank you

This thread for the droid Ultra might interest you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-ultra/general/droid-ultra-maxx-brick-recovery-t2830806
There is some discussion of the Razr HD in this thread. It looks like someone with an unlocked device would need to dd their bootloader partition for this method to work.

A few years later .... Any solution? rsrsrs

any update on this scenario?
i have this situation too and the time could give us an answer, i am searching again, i took my device to some 'phone repair stores' and in less than 5 minutes they told me that the phone was dead, but i have my last doubts

Just to add an update here
I ended up with the Green light only and blank screen after trying to fix a battery issue, despite getting a number of batteries my phone wasn't accepting the batteries.
I remembered a battery issue a long while back, so went to reflash my phone to see if it resolved it.
I ended up with the green light and blank screen and no matter what buttons, it would just make a noise then keep rebooting.
I ended up using the Unbrick bat file.
RSD Lite was briefly showing a Medfield device of something starting with Med, but since the phone kept rebooting I couldn't reflash it again.
I did the Pwr and Vol down and as soon as I saw the device, I clicked the UnBrick bat and it managed to get my Moto logo up.
I then booted to Fastboot mode and reflashed and my phone is back,
See this link for the UnBrick, but when you do it, you have to be fast to catch it while the device is seen, otherwise the phone reboots after 4s or soo.
