So I left work today at 5, paired my phone with the bluetooth in my radio, after I installed Skyfall last night. Pandora was supposedly playing and connected to the radio, but nothing was playing. I toggled the radio a few times and noticed that now only media was playing but no phone. I turned off the bluetooth on the phone thinking that was the problem.
The phone immediately disconnected from my pebble, expected. The bluetooth quick toggle was spinning like it was busy, so I waited. When the light turned green I put the phone in the cupholder. By the time I got to the next light the phone was off, not connected to anything and a bit warm.
The entire 40 minute ride home the phone was hot, and would not turn on or connect to anything. I tried holding the power button down for 10-30 seconds at a time to reset it, but it would not reset. I have tried this multiple times.
I'm home now, connected to the charger but have no charging light, and it still won't turn on. It has cooled off a lot in the past 10-30 minutes
Past couple days I've tried flashing a few things. After the last reset I installed Skyfall, power saver mod, faux kernel, set cpu (and changed some settings) and restored my app backups. Everything was running fine until I tried to connect to the bluetooth on my raido.
I can connect the phone to my computer, and windows recognizes a device connected, but neither ADB or Fastboot see the phone
Am I missing something on the hard power off?

Have you tried holding down power and volume up? When I was using the stock rom rooted with the insecure kernel my phone was running hot and I turned it off and it wouldn't power back on. Nothing worked until I pressed power and volume up - give it a shot.

I swear I was trying this in the car... and several attempts after... But that worked! Maybe it was because I had it on the charger when I did it this time?
Why would they ever make you hold two buttons for a hard reset ><
Phone is on now, Thank you for your assistance!
They gave us back our SD Cards... Now give us back our removable batteries!

My transformer has been my right hand since June and all of the sudden I'm without it. Was listening to a podcast via beyondpod this morning and paused the audio via my BT headset. Went to a meeting, then lunch. Came back two hours later and my tablet wouldn't turn on. I figured it was a sleep of death that randomly occurs so I held the power button in for 30 seconds or so to reboot, but that didn't work. It was still on because I could hear audio notifications for calendar appointments.
Tried the power button for 60-90 seconds, still nothing on screen. In the past I've been able to plug in the charger when this occurred and it would pop the screen on, tried that, but got no results.
I tried plugging it into my laptop to see if I could get ADB active and do a reboot. Windows saw the device and loaded the ADB driver, but if I tried adb devices it showed no devices. I long pressed the power button again and the windows device manager reset, adb devices now showed the transformer, but in offline mode. I couldn't run any commands.
Next I tried the "soft reset" utilizing the volume up and power button. This didn't do anything, except that the next time I attached it to my laptop it prompted me for an APX driver. I didn't know at the time this was for NVFlash (I rooted my device before the SBK was out with the initial blob tools from androidroot.mobi).
Now when I hook up my transformer I get no response from my computer and no response from the buttons on my tablet.
I'm at a loss and would love any suggestions or ideas to get my tablet back up and running.
This is resolved, I was finally able to get it rebooted via the volume down button and power while hooked to my laptop. I have no clue what was going on with it, but its still acting hinky.
Do we have any hardware diagnostics?
my tablet just started doing the same thing. O_O asus is trying to get us to buy their new slates, so they broke our current ones. /s
Something is seriously wonky here. My wifi keeps turning shutting down but being stuck at turning off. My power button is very inconsistent.
I think I'm going to fully wipe the system and start from scratch...
Been a couple months, but I'm back in the frozen state again. I charged my TF101 over night, pulled it off the charger and validated it was in a SOD. I put it in my sleeve and headed to the office. I turned on my BT headset to listen to a Podcast, but it didn't connect. I grabbed the tablet and it was screen on, frozen at 7:29am.
I can't for the life of me get this thing to reboot. I've held the power button in for 60 seconds, tried power button with volume down to boot recovery. I tried on AC power and off. I tried to hook to my PC, but the USB is not recognized at all.
I don't know if I just need to let this thing die (which will take forever) or what to do to get this rebooted.
Power button feels like it is catching when I press it in...
If you take off the outer bezel (be mindful of your micro sd card if you have one) you can push the actual power button itself. It should be a simple hold the button down for about 3-5 seconds and it'll reboot.
Hi, i have know idea what's going on, all I know is this settings app added all these icons on my home screen, so i deleted the app. An hr later i'm losing signal, so i went to turn on wifi to use the connection from my router. Soon as I turned on wifi (on the phone) my screen went black, but the bottom buttons (home, search, etc.) are all lit up, but the entire screen is black. I press every button, hold down every button, etc...it wont wake up. I've rebooted several times. It reboots fine, then 10 seconds later it goes black or the phone will reboot.
To make a long story short, i hated that i lost my info. But, I did a hard reset. BTW, my G2X is rooted, I've been running this same MIUI Rom for several months with very few problems.So I wiped data/cache, did the hard reset and my phone worked fine for a day! Sad about losing my data, but happy to have my phone back and not having to spend some money i don't have on a new phone.
Well last night, i fell asleep without putting phone on charger, I woke up and the battery was dead. I plugged in charger and the phone still wouldn't come on. I tried several chargers, so I just left the dead phone in the charger for an hour, still wouldn't boot up, finally after 2 hours it boots! It showed 90% on battery. So I think all is fine! I go to kitchen, come back and the screen is black again. Someone please help, Thanks
Hello,
I flashed the latest LRX22C image on my nexus 5 today.Had flashed it clean,wiping data,cache and system etc except the Internal Storage.Then I flashed the SUPERSU 2.37 ZIP .Everything was fine for about 4 hours.Then suddenly when I pressed the power button to turn the screen off,it was not turning off and the "Switch off" mode was popping up instead .Then, when I got a call,it switched off.The phone won't turn on again.It starts,the Google Boot Splash appears and the bootanimation starts for like 2 seconds and it switches off.Same thing for bootloader mode.
Please Help me!
EDIT: Now its turning on by itself and switches off in 2 seconds!
Sounds like a bad power switch to me, but of course that is just my opinion. :good:
sounds like a mech issue.

I have the same problem on mine now... Basically my phone powered down around 45%. Battery. At the time i thought it was dead... But it wasnt. When i would plug into external power, either usb or through wireless charging it would power cycle continuously at the android splash screen.... (1 to 2 second intervals - even if i booted into fastboot) Interestingly it would never go to the battery charging mode. But automatically boot on charge... It did this for about 6 hours then i gave up and left it unplugged for a day. I plugged it back in and it started power cycling again, however this time on its third boot it came back to life . thats when i discovered i still had 40% battery... I dont know what exactly made it boot but it did. Oddly also on boot, it started optimising apps and finishing install again. I checked the md5 before I installed the update so no issue there. Since it powered up i have powered the phone off using the power button long push and let the phone power down. After doing this when i plug the phone in to usb charge it goes to the charge screen. No issue. That said, if i try to power up while tethered and charging it will not allow it. It just stays at the charge screen. As soon as i unplug the usb the power button allows the phone to power up and work... When booted up it charges as normal when plugged in. Im convinced there is an issue with the power management drivers or drivers for the button controls. My phone worked fine until the 5.0.1 update was installed. On my nexus 5. Anyone else or just us two? Ive had a hard time finding people posting on this issue.
hello,
I had left my phone to charge at night, then this morning it was not responding. Power button was not waking up the phone. Then i forced to reset by power and volume buttons. Vibrated 3 times and completely shut off. Now it is not opening.
I already tried, reset button in sim cards slot. It is not working also. Please help me.
Did you try connecting it to PC Suite or FLashtool? Check that once and also try charging another hour and then force reset the phone. Also I think there is a reset button somewhere under the sim card slot. Try that one too.
Hold volume up and press power. Wait for beep three times. Give it a few seconds and then press power alone, should boot.
Thanks guys, i tried both but still i have sudden death. reset button and power+volume buttons not working. Also flashtool could'nt find my device.
Thats not good, any led when plugged in?
I had a similar instance after flashing unofficial cm12. Phone was cooling down from taking a run through an obvious cpu bug that really killed my battery. I shut it off to cool down with 20 precent still left in the battery. And the phone started to act this way when I went to power it on. No led power indicator or anything even with usb connected. My computer did respond to the usb being connected as if a device was there though. I waited about 10 minutes with the phone in front of some cool air and then did the volume up power button reset which worked then. Still quite a scary incident.
Hi!
A couple of days ago I got an HTC 10. First I unlocked the bootloader using the official HTC method found on their site. Then I rooted it and for a while it was fine untill I tried to put it in to download mode by using the holding down the volume down and power buttons for a few seconds. At first it would just restart in normal mode so I tried a few times and then decided keep pressing the power and volume down buttons until it goes into download mode. When I did that the phone buzzed three times and then just shut itself off. I haven{t been able to turn it back on since then. I tried all of the methods I was able to find on the internet with no luck. Here is the curious thing though, for the first hour or so after that happened the phone would very briefly buzz after I have been pressing power and volume down buttons for about 10 seconds but still wouldn’t turn on. Then I connected it to my computer and my PC would recognize that something is plugged in by giving me an audio notification but still wouldn’t be able to communicate with the phone. After that I plugged it on and waited for a few minutes, when I checked on it it was pretty hot to the touch, so I unplugged and tried to start it up again and this time it wouldn’t even buzz. Right now I am trying to charge it and it is not getting warm nor has any indication that it is charging.
Did I just **** up a perfectly good phone or there is still something that can be done?
Thanks!
Hi,
have you tried a soft reset? (Power button + Volume down button for 12 to 15 secs)
