Hey guys, I´m new here,
and I have a problem with my Nexus 5.
Today, I took it out of my pocket, and it was turned off. I don´t know why, it charged over night,
So I tried to boot it normally, and it worked. But upon reaching the pin screen for the sim card, a message popped up: Power off, shutting down.
I tried some more time, with and without sim, on the charger, and without, I even resetet it to the factory setting through the bootloader.
All these attempts did not work. My phone is on stock, and it´s unrooted.
What can I try to get it working again?
Cheers,
Timo
My first guess is that the plug was not fully inserted into the socket on the phone so that it discharged all night to zero. When that happens, I've found that you need to plug in the charger and leave it alone for a half hour before you will see any sign that it is in fact charging.

Thanks for the answer.
Had it at the charger for like 3-4 hours now, nothing changed...In the short time, I´m able to see the battery indicator it shows the battery on half load together with the sign that it´s loading.
Does the phone load on the bootloader screen?
Cheers,
Timo
Yup, the phone can charge even on bootloader.
Did you unlock the bootloader (and flashed a custom recovery) on the phone ? You should try to backup all data (recovery -> mount and storage -> mount usb, then connect to a comptuter using a usb cable) and to flash another rom/ fastboot and flash the original firmware

Nope, I did not unlock the bootloader. I will try to charge it at the bootloader over night, and I´ll see what happens.
Thanks,

ok, tried doing the official ota update about 2 days ago, but once it tried doing the update, my phone gets stuck at the (M) logo.
I cannot boot it up in anyway possible, and my battery is dead so i cant start it up while plugged in USB, but if its plugged into the wall itll start up and im able to get into boot loader etc...
ive tried putting a recovery img on root of sd card and applying as an update.zip file and getting an sdcard error status 7.
my phone was never rooted, all stock. any help>
power off your phone, plug it into wall charger and let it charge up. while its charging up download a 2.1 sbf,
SHOLS_U2_02.31.0_UCASHLSMR2EMEAB1B805C.0R_PDS003_USASHLS00RTEU_P042_A005_HWp2a_1FF.sbf.gz (google it)
Then download RSD Lite (google it)
Then when your phone is charged boot into bootloader (hold up on keyboard and press power button)
connect to pc via usb, open rsd lite, make sure phone shows up connected, load sbf you downloaded and press start and let it do its thing.
should bring you back to stock 2.1.
hope this helps
well thats the thing, ive let it sit plugged into a wallcharger for hours upon hours, the secon i plug it in, it turns on by itsself and sits at the moto M screen, and once i unplug it i cant do that.
i am able to get it to the screen where you can wipe/data factory reset, wipe cache, reboot and apply update.zip. if i had an update file, and i did a wipe and flashed it, would that fix it? because ive tried that, but idk if its the wrong file or what, but i get a sdcard error. like status 7 on the verification step
also on getting the batt charged, i noticed when plugged into a wall screen lights up with M logo. and when i plug into computer with usb, the white light next to charger lights up?

you don't run an update, u reflash the phone with rsd lite. choose the correct sbf for ur phone from here - http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone?s[]=sbf, download it, extract it, flash it. make sure the battery has a full charge
.i want to reflash but rsd lite cannot detect my milestonext720...how ?..FYI b4 this i run adb on same pc...but it can run...all driver for motorola hav installed ..ill use rsd lite 4.5.3
well the problem is my phone wont charge, it wont charge in wall or usb, when i plug into wall phone auto starts and just sits at (M). idk if it charges in bootloader mode? or in recovery? not sure

I actually had this problem myself fairly recently. I was able to partially insert the plug into my phone until the LED turned on, but not far enough to where the Motorola logo turned on. It'll either try to fall out or plug further in, so I recommend placing it on a surface which won't have much disturbance.
After about an hour, you should have sufficient charge to mess around with the software and flash a new SBF by the bootloader, or reflash a backup through recovery. I wouldn't recommend leaving it plugged in too long like this, because it might not be very good for the phone's health.

umm .. what's about charging the battery with another phone or external charger and put it back to ur phone?
i have just the same issue ... i am sure that the battery is fully charged, cause ive charged it with another milestone ... but that one simply won't turn on ... tried different combinations of sd/simcard/battery on and off .. still the same ... Any help would be highly appreciated.
pull out the battery get back and push d-pad UP and power buttons before M logo came up. so you can flash a sbf file with rsd-lite._a
HTC One S S4 16 GB
what I did:
1. Unlocked Bootloader
2. installed cwm
3. rooted
4. made backup
5. Factory Reset / Wipe before
6. Flashed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701314
which resulted into a black screen
7. Tried to use my back up---> no back up available
8. SD Card wont mount
9. Tried to put new rom via usb mount--->not possible
10. Tried to repair recovery via fastboot---> still not reading sd card
Situation now:
Now Battery is getting low and wont load anymore, only a red light is blinking for the first minutes when I try loading, so I cant get into Bootloader anymore.
What I am thinking to do:
Open HTC One S and load the Battery separately, then I hope to get into the Bootloader again.
Then I will try to lock the Bootloader and to use a ruu.
Is there anybody who had similar problems? Any suggestions?
Thanks to Everybody in advance!
Yeah, leave it charging for a couple of hours, then unplug the charger and try to boot into bootloader again.
Once inside bootloader, plug in the usb cable and fastboot flash the boot.img.

It has been loading for about 12 hours now, still it wont load the bootloader. So I am assuming that it is not able to charge the battery.
Still thank you for your answer.
I've seen a couple of threads about this but none of them have the same issues as I have or they remain unanswered.
My HTC Sensation (EU version) won't boot up at all. I can't boot it into recovery or bootloader and when charging the light doesn't turn on.
It recently started to randomly reboot and at one point it completely corrupted all files on my SD card. However, it worked ok after I bought a new SD card and the random reboots didn't bother me that much. Today when I woke up however, I saw that it wouldn't respond to me pressing the power button. I also noticed that the charging light wasn't on (it was plugged into the wall overnight).
I tried removing/reinserting the battery, I tried booting into recovery and bootloader, I tried connecting it to my PC and forcing it to boot into bootloader but nothing works. To clear things up, when I try to boot it up nothing happens. The screen stays black and doesn't power on.
The only thing that leads me to believe there's still a chance of it working is that when I plug it into the PC, my PC detects it (although it's unable to install the required drivers for it).
I'd appreciate any help I can get.

open a cmd window in your adb and fastboot folder and try this command
adb boot bootloader

That command didn't work for me and displayed a wall of text. After looking through it I found a similar command which I tried
adb reboot-bootloader
When I entered that it said that it was starting the daemon on port, that the daemon had started succesfully and then it gives me the error: device not found.

charge the device without battery,sim and sdcard for 4-5 hours
put them back and switch it on
see how it goes
if that fails then try to switch on the device with a different battery

I tried the charging method but it didn't seem to do anything.
I don't have a different battery that fits in there. Can I use a smaller and lower capacity battery as well and just connect the contacts? I don't wanna shortcut anything

So are there any options left for me? I've read some stuff about Jtagging but I'm not planning on getting a box or paying someone to do it for me.
Ok guys, i'm in trouble trying to fix this great mistake. I'm new in android programming, and i bricked my device a few times, but i managed to fix it out. But that time, i was trying to reinstall Cyanogenmod 12.1 on my device. It was working well, but i had to flash an app, and it bootlooped. I forgot that i had only about 16% of battery. In adb, fastboot mode, i erased /system and /boot, but when i tried to flash the boot.img, it haven't worked, because in the device blocks from flashing with low battery. So, im trying the .bat method now, trying to charge it, and the method of plugging in wall charger and connect to pc don't worked, because i disconnect, with "Battery OK" and when i connect in USB, it changed to "Battery Low (Charging)". But now, in wall charger, i didn't get even the "Battery OK". Today i noted that when i connected in USB, the "Battery icon" appeared with 0% , and the screen gone off. Initiates, and deactivated very fast. When i try to initiate device, the "Motorola" logo appears very fast before it go to the fastboot. I really dont know what to do, and i dont have the tools to open my Moto G, and i have no idea of where to find it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
PS.: Sorry by my english, i'm from Brazil.
PS²: Sorry if i don't have posted in the right place. It's my first topic.
Ok Guys, i've simply opened the phone and connected the battery to an old charger, and waited a few minutes until it had enough charge to reflash partitions. Thanks anyway, guys!
Hi Guys,
my phone is dead and i have no clue what the issue is.
My S6 just turned off out of nowhere and can't be switched on anymore. It will only show the charge sign for a few seconds after plugin in and then stops/screen turns off. It can't be started at all.
I bought a new battery but don't think this is the problem. i haven't installed it yet, as something else might be broken.
The phone won't turn on when connected to the usb from the laptop, but i can get it into recovery mode as long as it is connected and install a new firmware.
If i unplug the usb in recovery mode, the phone switches off right away so that might be a power issue.
Once i install a new factory rom through Odin, the black/white Samsung boot screen comes on, then the blue installing screen that counts up the installation percentage, and then the phone turns off around 2-6% and says erasing. Then the phone is completely dead again and i can only get a screen picture by entering recovery mode.
What can it be? Any ideas/suggestions?
i attached some picture and a video of the start up in the .zip file, as i can't upload .mp4.
Thanks

I also don't have a boot-loop or something where the phone continuously reboots.
Maybe something related to the memory of the phone?
try flashing firmware with "NAND Erase All" under Options in Odin, this will wipe /data/ partition, if you get stuck in a blank screen reboot in recovery mode and perform a Factory reset to recreate/format the /data/ partition again.

Thanks a lot for that tip.
I tried that and the blue installing screen that counts up the installation percentage doesn't stop at 2-6%, but it stops at 26-32% now, then says erasing, reboots into the same blue installation screen and then turns off.
When i unplug the cable, the phone immediately turns off, so there must be some battery issue as well. Not sure if this is related in any way. I can't get into recovery when only running on battery without a USB cable connected.
Anymore ideas what i could try or it could be?
I think, that because of battery your phone died while flashing in Odin and that's why you can't flash anything now

The phone is connected to the USB though. Wouldn't that provide enough juice to power the phone while flashing?
I can install the new battery i bought but if that is not the reason, i can't return it anymore.
Does the USB provide enough power when flashing?

This is 99% a dead battery, try replacing it. If you have enough time to disconnect and connect to your Wall charger you could try that.
Usb is not enough to keep the phone on, neither charge the battery at the same time
