[Q] HTC TD2 Power On-Off - Virus?

My TD2 keeps wanting to turn off - the power off screen comes up (do you want to turn off your device?). If I select yes, it shuts down and immediately restarts. If I select no, it pops up again within a few minutes.
The device doesn't respond to the power button. I can't perform a hard reset, soft reset works OK, but problem continues. IF left sitting, the phone goes to sleep but wakes up soon after and the power dialog comes up again. If I remove and replace the battery, device starts OK but problem continues.
It may be coincidence, but this started hapenning the day after I (stupidly) opened a strange MMS and tried to play the attached "video" - which didn't play.
Haven't tried to reflash ROM - not sure what ROM I should be looking for. Current ROM version is 2.31.841.6 (64646) WWE. Should I just look for that? (This is a Telstra TD2 that I have had for bout a year - bought online)
Thanks.

[Q] Touchscreen not responding - stuck TF101 tablet - what can I try?

OK - since the recent ota upgrade to ICS we've been having a few problems with the table touchscreen freezing - unfortunately now it seems to have got stuck almost all the time. Just at the moment, it is not responding at all to touch - just displays the lock screen when powered on, and then times out a little while later to black. I have to push power to get it back on - but the touch screen simply won't respond to unlock it. So far I have tried:
Holding down power until restarts - no effect - reboots still locked.
Using Vol-Down power on and doing factory reset - no effect - reboots into android setup screen touchscreen not working.
Draining power until it won't turn on. Then recharged. This worked! However...
After going through the setup process, resintalling apps etc., I hit the power button to go into standby. I then thought I'd go straight back in, but as soon as I hit the power button again, it wouldn't respond! Left it charging for a couple of hours, and turned on, this time got in - but same again - hitting the power button and coming straight back in, it's not responding again.
So I'm now back with a fully charged tablet that won't respond to touch at all. - perhaps if I leave it a few hours it might respond again - until it goes into standby!? The device is fully stock with WW_epad-9.2.1.11-20120221 (according to the screen at boot up when you hold down vol-d).
Is this likely to be software or hardware related? Do I need to send it for repair/replacement, or is there something else I can try first? Any help much appreciated. (Oh - I don't have external keyboard btw - so without screen it's pretty limited what i can do!)
Cheers,
Colin.

I have already encountered the same problem but with a cutom rom. to find my touch, I had to do a full wipe and new intallation.

I did full wipe using the Power/Vol-D but the touch screen didn't start working again until I let the battery completely drain.
Then I reinstalled everything (screen was working to begin with), however after I'd set everything up and reinstalled all my apps it stopped again.
Yesterday I managed to get an ota update to 9.2.1.17 (it started working for a short time). But then aftger rebooting again, it stopped again.
This morning it is working again, and I have uninstalled all my apps - just the core stuff on there now. For the moment it appears to be working (which is the longest for a while!) - going to see if it stops again while there aren't any extra apps installed...

[Q] Virus or Bricked it ?

Hey Guys, I'd Like to ask a question , very weird going on about my device... Only one time I got that Lovely Icon (exclamation mark) with a phone sign followed by a computer, yes that means that i am in download mode, i fixed it but once i got passed that small error my phone has been acting up.. I've tried CM10 keeps restarting by itself once in a while, I had tried going COMPLETELY going to stuck by using a Youtube video on how to unbrick it... NO luck. This time it freezes up and all applications become unresponsive, Facebook FORCECLOSE and other apps& and restarts, once is in the home screen i hold the power button and i only get one option "POWER OFF" its very weird because I remeber there was "DATA IS SET "ON" ETC, other settings in the phone had been re-enabled for ex. haptic feedback vibration. i had that turned off and it came back on by itself, second setting is the lock screen i cant set up a lock setting because once i press the unlock button and wait about 5 seconds it would go directly to the home screen W/O asking to enter to any patter. I tried gingerbread 2.3.6, with this rom all apps are UNAVAILABLE.. YES they dont open up.. EVEN facebok.. I took out the battery, turned it back on, and once it gets to the "rethink possible" keeps restarting the att motion until it finally restarts the whole phone and it keeps doing this.. I wanted to ask you guys if my phone is bricked or something because is really annoying. Thanks !

A brick would be where you wouldn't be able to boot up. A virus would be wiped out when flashing a new rom. When installing a new rom, did you also format /system? Sometimes that irons out some bugs. Maybe doing a wipe on your dalvik and cache seperatly could help.

Yea, once i last flashed CM10 yeah i did and the problem persits... Right Now im in stock FROYO 2.2 with no luck... I had to switch to my old Mytouch 3G Slide until i fix this issue...

S7 crashes on boot. No response to input. Drain to 0% to power on again.

It started a few days ago, I was testing a cardboard/gear vr unity game and the screen would turn black but the buttons were responsive and I could get it to hard reboot or make it come back again after plugging it back into the gear. I looked around but couldn't find anything that resembles my issue.
Now as soon as it boots it goes into a black screen after samsung and carrier logos show, i sometimes get a glimpse of the lock screen and respond to some input.
The phone is still on, I can feel the battery warm.
-No response to any input. Not even pwr+vol down.
-PC won't detect it when plugged.
-No lights on charging.
-I need to let it fully drain for it to shut down and try anything again.
-Did a factory reset from recovery mode, wipe cache. Still the same.
-No root.
-There was an update that may have installed overnight but can't confirm because can't access system info.
EDIT: New find! when booting to recovery, goes into "Installing Update" and then "No command".
Any thoughts??
Is there some pc software that i can use to try to reinstall firmware? Something like SEUS for sony phones back in the day?
Is odin safe or should i look into a samsung official tool? I've never used odin so i'm not sure of it's capabilities (this is my first sammy phone, I had it to get to test gear vr apps)
Sorry for the long post but wanted to get all the info out there.
Thanks!

Can you enter "Download Mode"? (By rebooting and pressing HOME + VOLUME DOWN)
If yes, I suggest that you try, as you suggested, reinstalling your firmware.
You will have to know your carrier, or specific phone model (G930X, where X represents carrier letter (Example: T for T-Mobile) )
Modified Odin (by PrinceComsy): https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24591023225177749
Then I suggest downloading firmware from https://SamsungBay.com as all other sources restrict download speed (So it takes a minimum of 13 hours).
https://samsungbay.com/download-firmware/?device=&model=sm-G930&firmware=
Once you have Odin and Firmware, load the correct files.
(AP_G930X), (BL_G930X), (CP_G930X), and (CSC_G930X) into Odin.
Power off phone, and boot into download mode (Pressing HOME + VOLUME DOWN)
N.B/ You will lose all your phone data, sadly, but it seems you've already wiped it.

[Resolved] Black Screen on LG Max x155 with TWRP Recovery and AOSP custom ROM with Xposed

Yesterday I put my phone to charge over night and when I woke up today's morning I was met with a Black Screen with a status bar and Software Back button, that doesn't do anything. Rebooting in recovery doesn't work (TWRP just stuck on loading screen). I can receive notifications, but can't interact with them. I can Turn on and off Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS etc. through status bar. I can't open Settings or any App. I can't reboot with out removing battery, can't hard reset and if I power off phone from Power menu it won't start again, when I hold down Power button, unless I remove battery.
Some Details about phone:
LG Max x155
Android 5.0.2
Custom AOSP (installed long time ago, never faced this problem)
TWRP 3.0.3.
I searched internet and tried some things:
Rebooting (didn't work at all)
Hard Reseting (didn't work at all)
Removing Battery putting it back and then powering on (didn't help)
Entering Safe mode (didn't help, it shows same issue, though it briefly shows my Home screen before going black)
Doing anything with Recovery, like wiping, reinstalling ROM etc. doesn't work, because TWRP won't load
Some other details:
I am using different charger (but I have used it for several days already). Phone was overcharged over night.
Now I am trying to drain the battery to zero and then charging it again, using my old charger. If it won't help I don't know what can be done.

Do a google search for:
"Return to stock (your model number)"
Then reinstall TWRP, then flash your 5.0ROM and Gapps. Don't forget to factory reset, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache when you flash the ROM.

I figured it out. My SD Card burnt and caused this issue. I removed it and the phone's fine.
