My phone's LED is blinking red and green when i connect it to wall charger.
I'm using the stock charger but my phone just cant be charged. It's completely dead by now. Btw, it is not overheat.
Any method to solve it?
Please shut down, then press the volume down button while you press the power button to boot.
To confirm that you can enter bootloader.
If you can enter, re-brush into a custom ROM.
After an attempt at installing CWM my phone now only vibrates. I followed all the steps ,replace the recovery.img with the new one ,then unhooked from the comp pulled the battery then installed the battery and powered up holding both volume buttons down along with the power button and instead of a short vibration followed by start-up it just vibrates continuous . now the only thing I can access on the phone is the recovery folder via hooking to the computer.I cant access the download feature by holding down volume down plus power ,nothing happens .If I just try tp power up normal it vibrates untill I pull the battery and the same if I power and hold both volume buttons. Please can some one bail me out of this nitemare??
Hi guys !
My HTC One S died yesterday just before going to bed.
It was 10% battery, I used it for 10-15mn and it went down to 3% and then 1% and shut down just before I plug it to the wall charger.
I let it there for 5mn and tried to power it on but nothing happened. I noticed that the charging led was not even working.
I let it overnight charging and this morning, still nothing. I tried to enter bootloader with power+volume down, nothing happen
This morning, I tried :
- 2 hours usb charging, not detected by the computer, no led, won't start even in bootloader
- 2 hours wall charger charging. Still no led, won't start
Any idea on what to try ?

Ok, simulated battery pull.
hold the phone under bright light (sensor see's the light and allows to power on, something about a feature to prevent resetting while the phone is in your pocket). press power button, press and hold power button if that doesn't work.

Maybe it is locked up, and really has been charging. Press and hold power button for 10 seconds.
Some have had success pulling the sim card, and then pressing the power button. Then when it turns on reinserting sim card.

Factory Reset option: would erase phone storage though.
If you can’t turn HTC One S on or access settings, you can still perform a factory reset by using the hardware buttons on HTC One S.
Press and hold the VOLUME DOWN button, and then press and hold the POWER button.
Wait for the screen with the three Android images to appear, and then release the POWER and VOLUME DOWN buttons.
Press VOLUME DOWN to select FACTORY RESET, and then press the POWER button.

Others have switched to trying to charge it connected to USB port and have it suddenly come back to life after a while.
Thanks for the answer

Will try this one !
In fact it really looks like it's dead : no led, nothing happen when I let it charge (it's not even hot) and nothing happen when I push all the possible buttons combinations :crying:

Press power & vol.down for 15-20 seconds.
Press And Hold The POWER Button Until Touch Navigation Buttons Start Blinking, Then Press And Hold One Of Navigation Buttons Till Phone Screen Blinks And Navigation Buttons Stop Blinking, Then Release All Buttons And Phone Should Be Reboot.
The LED light is blinking (slow), i touch the screen, push the power button and volume buttons and the phone will turn on. I have to plug the charger or usb so the screen can come on. I swipe the screen, push the power/volume buttons and phone will revert back to black screen. Can someone please tell me what is wrong with the phone!

To force the phone to turn off hold down the power button (and ONLY the power button) for a count of 10 seconds....the phone WILL power off as it's a hardware function...however if you have the phone plugged into power it may reboot right after back into your rom. While disconnected from power it will stay off. You may need to do a factory reset to get rid of whatever is causing your rom to act that way.
