Hello.
I installed (via apk) a new Google Play Services version on my N5, the Google Play Services kept crashing every 10 seconds. I tried to reboot it to bootloader by holding down all 3 physical buttons but I let go of one to soon. The device turned on immediately and I immediately repress the button I had released just after the device turned on. Now my N5 is off and won't turn on. Please help!
Does it not even reboot into bootloader, from where you can restart? It might jog it into action.
Presumably it has enough battery? Have you tried charging for a while just to be sure and then trying to restart?
Clutching at straws here, but I know how frustrating no answers at all can be.

In fact I've just booted my N5 into bootloader from off, using only the power and volume down. No 3 buttons needed. Give it a go.
Press power off for 8-10 seconds till it reboots. Then all u need to do is hold the power button down and your BL will be up

Hey everyone, for some reason my S3 decided to take its last breath (hopefully not) today.. I had flashed Mastamoon's CM12 build for my Straight Talk S3 (SCH-S968C) today and got all successful messages as it was flashing but when I restarted it my screen did not want to come on for some reason. I have left it on the charger for the past 8 hours and there is no LED lit up to show that it is charging, the screen will still not come on or anything. I have tried to put it into download mode, recovery, and safe mode to no avail.. Connected it to my laptop to try and use ODIN to go back to factory defaults: no luck. Tried Kies and the Emergency Recovery: still no luck. Does anyone know of a potential fix or atleast a way that i can get the screen to turn itself on so i can attempt at ODIN again?

(For ****s and giggles I also pulled the battery and held down the power button to drain the power remaining in the phone and that has not done anything either when i reinserted the battery) :crying:
Edit: Sorry forgot a couple things. When I connect it to my laptop, my laptop will ding at me saying that it is connected. but it will not show up in my computer or disk management. It also went through the initial driver setup and still wouldnt show up.
I know that this is the Verizon S3 forum, but for this phone only the verizon roms have been working..
Take out the battery for like 20 sec hold down power and volume down until another screen pops up then press volume up
Or plug it in your laptop hold the buttons I told u until ding let off buttons and really quick press and hold them again

Hi,
Hope you guys can help.
I've had my Nexus 5 phone for 16 months now - generally worked great. Occasionally it dies and wont power up, but tends to be fine once you leave it charged for 10 minutes and give it a go a few times.
However, now, it wont boot up at all. It has a mind of its own of turning on and off every few seconds, and then just staying on the Google logo before switching off again.
Very occasionally it gets to the 4 circles but again shut offs after a few seconds.
I've read a few threads that suggest pressing Vol button and power on button. I've tried that and get to the android robot screen, but it switches off like 1 second after, so im unable to select any options.
Any ideas very welcome?
When I have connected to a charger, it constantly boots up and switches off the google logo after couple of seconds all by itself.
but if not connected to a charger, then it remains off unless I press power button or give it a little knock.
Thanks a lot
I had the same problem and what I found is that it is a power button that is stuck. What I did to get the phone back on is to continuous press the power button until the phone fully finishes booting. After that it should be OK, if not a good smack to s table can also help, no joke. I set my volume button to power on screen and use an on screen button to turn of because its hit or miss with the power button for me. Thought about getting it fixed but have no time.

I have this problem to. I sent it to service, but since its rooted, the wont repair it if I don't pay. It's baught from dustin.no, not Google Store
They say the motherbord is broken because of overload, because the rooting..... I have ordered a new powerbutton from Ebay, and will try to replace it if this solution doesn't work.
Can this be true, that the motherboard got broken because a rooted the phone?? I have never did anything else that rooting......
s5 has black screen, lcds lights up on boot then goes black
the touchscreen is responsive after boot. I can hear sound when pressing the screen
does anyone have any suggestions to fix this?
I tried some fixes I found, held power 1min unplugged battery 5min, not working
bang power button a few times - not working
updated firmware and rom - not working
the lcd comes on for a seconds but turns off. the phone fully powers up and i can access by PC
Are you on a custom recovery? You should do a full wipe and Odin the factory rom from a powered off state first.

Also try booting up without the sd and sim cards installed.
My S7 was on the charger last night and worked fine. When I woke up, the screen is black, and the only sign of activity is a flashing blue LED. I've tried all the hardware keys to reset the phone, and nothing changes. Plugging the phone into my computer, no device shows up at all.
Any ideas to try and fix? This phone was stock, and not modded in any way.

I've had this issue when my phone was in a deep sleep state and wasn't able to wakup, but a simple reboot fixed it... So I'm hoping you have the same issue

If nothing else works like pressing power button home button and volume down and then waiting for your phone to vibrate twice, if you don't see anything you have damaged the display... If it works then good news screen isn't damaged

Worst case scenario is the systemui was modified and now keeps force closing, you'd have to reflash the stock rom through Odin. I found a wipe data factory reset in recoery doesn't work.
thanks for the reply, unfortunately no matter what i do, the device will not reset. the display remains blank, and the blue light remains flashing. I am familiar with using Odin, and my PC does not recognize that anything is being plugged into the USB ports. Right now I have the phone in the freezer trying to drain the battery to see if it will start up upon being recharged.

Try connecting the MicroUSB > USB adapter that came with the phone to a power hungry USB device such as a USB fan, see if it is working enough to power the fan or whatever you connect, which will drain the battery quickly
Hey there.
I recently bought a OnePlus 7 Pro that was locked to T-Mobile second hand. I went to go and attempt to unlock it using this method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/help/how-to-convert-tmobile-op7-to-t3935947
I went to go and do the step where you hold both the volume buttons when plugging it in but nothing happened (probably shouldn't have done that because MSM showed that there was no connection although it was there in file explorer). I noticed that nothing had happened and when I tried to turn on the phone, nothing would happen.
I have tried turning it on with the power + volume up/volume down button to see if it would respond but nothing would happen. When plugging it into the computer, the computer made a sound as if something had connected.
I would really like to get my Oneplus 7 Pro back
Thank you for your help in advance and I will try and be helpful by answering any questions that you have.
Edit: The phone was also factory reset when trying to unlock it. Well I’m pretty sure that I reset it accidentally and kept pressing the power button which just led to it restarting and opening at the factory reset screen.
Sounds like phone is in edl mode but you missed the short window for msm to pick it up. Also on windows pc you need to have it in test mode for the edl drivers to work since they are not signed. St least on my windows 8 machine. Don't know about 10. Since i switched to linux on all but 1 machine

Sorry forgot to mention you should just be able to press and hold the power button to reboot. Hold it very long time until you feel it vibrate then it should reboot to normal long as you didn't wipe it
