I rebooted after installing a mod and my phone is now frozen on the splash screen. I have held the power button down for 5 minutes. adb does not see the phone. Any ideas any one?
NM...figured it out

My Nexus 5 randomly started to lock and unlock itself, repeatedly. The screen kept flashing on and off and then it rebooted, or tried to. It came up with the google logo and then turned off. If I press vol-down and power, it goes into fast boot but then automatically goes to the google logo as if I pressed the power button to select "Start". Any help is appreciated as my phone is now basically a paperweight.
Take it apart and replace the power button with a new one ?
So I use Adaway on my M8 running CM11 M9 (I think it's m9), and I just updated the host files, and when it said to reboot, I said okay. Now, it's stuck on a black screen that is actually the screen being on, it's just showing the color black. Right now the plan is for the phone to run out of battery, and hopefully I can boot into the phone after that. Can anyone recommend something else? Because I might be stuck in a boot loop with a black screen.
Hold power and volume up until phone shuts off, it will then turn on again. If you get in a boot loop, hold power and volume up u til the screen goes off then hold volume down when the screen goes on and you will be in hboot
Hello,
I own a Nexus 5 (rooted, CyanogenMod11-M10, ClockWork recovery).
I had found a boot animation that I liked. I tested it but the images where smaller (768x1280), they had a black border around them which I did not like, so I decided to resize them to 1080x1920 also taking care to modify desc.txt with the new size.
But, upon reboot the screen went first crazy for a split second and then went completely black...
I cannot do anything now, I tried to access the phone with ADB but it tells me that I have to answer the onscreen question... I cannot even see the screen anymore
Is there anything I can do short of popping the back and disconnecting the battery?
Thanks
M
--- EDIT UPDATE
I tried Volume up (OR Volume down) + Power to reboot, it did reboot but the same problem appeared, then I tried Vol up AND Vol down + Power and it looked like the phone powered down (I could not see anymore the faint backlit screen)... Then I tried Vol up AND Vol down + Power to reboot in recovery but it does NOTHING... only the Power button alone works but it boots again normally and then again the same problem appears.
--- EDIT UPDATE SOLVED!!!!!!!
It just needed to rest apparently...
As I said I've powered it off by holding down volup, voldown and power... nothing was working: I could not boot into reveory and even the battery icon was not showing up, but after 15 minutes I've tried to reconnect the USB cable and this time the battery icon showed up... At this point I knew could reboot into recovery, so I did :laugh: then I have mounted /system and with ADB I've opened a shell so that I could delete the damned bootanimation.zip file... after that the phone rebooted OK (minus that glorious boot animation)
Yet, if someone has any idea why it had to wait off few minutes, please, add to this conversation.
Hi,
I am using my brothers HTC One Mini M4 (completely stock, never rooted or custom ROM never flashed etc) as a placeholder for when I get the new phone. However, I was using it earlier and the screen went black and the capacative buttons were flashing on and off. It then restarted and I thought it was just a crash, however now it's turned into a loop. It starts with a vibration, then the screen goes black and I am able to hold the volume down + power button to enter the FASTBOOT menu, which it does for a few seconds before just restarting again. I'm now leaving it to just run out of battery, but does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
My completely stock Nexus 5 has been stuck on a bootloop for 45 minutes. I've had this phone for 11 months from new.
My phone had the flashlight bug - I had the torch on, the phone went to lockscreen and the torch turned itself off, then it wouldn't connect to the camera. I restarted my phone and it has been stuck on the rotating Google coloured ball boot animation for 45 minutes.
The phone is completely stock, running the latest official version of Lollipop. It isn't rooted.
Holding the power button for 5 seconds reboots it to the GOOGLE screen then the boot animation.
Holding down the power + volume down button gets me to a screen with the following options: START | RESTART BOOTLOADER | RECOVERY MODE | POWER OFF
Choosing recovery mode just shows 'No Command'
I have tried fiddling with and hitting the power button (as suggested from Google searches) and this has not fixed the problem. Charging the phone, having it plugged in, having it not plugged all do not fix the issue.
What can I do?
Someone must know how to fix these issues
