OnePlus One super hard bricked? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, I was flashing cm-11.0-XNF9XBS28K-bacon-signed on my opo and something went wrong on recovery, it was like rom flashing went wrong and it didn't happen, so I went to wipe and I'm pretty sure that I selected everything in wipe section, literally everything and hit the reboot button, and my phone won't wake up, no response, tried to press buttons in every combinations for maybe 1 min? My computer won't recognize my phone, nothing happens, no vibration, no sound ;x I think I erased everything, but is it possible to delete bootloader that way? Btw my battery was charged to about 90%.
I tried charging in for about 14hs and nothing happened, phone and charger during this time were cold. I tried to recognize it by Windows 10/XP and Ubuntu but no reponse from phone, so I coulnd't use this magical method with qualcomm port and drivers, and then this Color. Is it really bad hardware brick?

Have you tried this thread by any chance? Hopefully it works. Worked for me when I bricked mine by flashing hydrogen

I tried, but my PC can't detect my phone in any state.

Can you try long pressing the power button for 10 seconds or more to turn it off. Then long press the power button and connect to a PC and see if it responds

Ok I will try, but I tried before some combinations with buttons and connecting to PC, now I'm testing "dead battery" so 12hrs without touching and 6 hrs charging and then unplug and plug again. But I'm almost convinced that it's something with mainboard I talked to OP and they said that they will exchange my phone If it happened during flashing Cyanogen ROM.
//Still no respond from the PC and phone. Completely dead.

Dont worry, they wont know u had twrp if the phone is hard bricked. Just carry on your RMA process. Good luck...

Today's remote session went as I thought will be, did almost everything as this technician. Now awaiting RMA ticket.

[Q] Getting Out of QDL Mode

Followed absolutelygrimm unbrick/downgrade methods but made silly mistake and screen remains black after last step. the phone is stuck in qdl mode, can't spam also. So my question is, will the phone get out of qdl mode if battery is totally drained???? TIA:good::good:
Do you have another pc to repeat the process?
I had that issue as well and it was an incompatibility between ubuntu and the USB-chipset.

It worked only once on my desktop and i was able to perform the downgrade process to the end. However, it was failure and i was unable to repeat the process on the desktop. After that I tried it on a laptop and it didn't work. I will try more on my neighbor's computer and see how it goes.
Thank you very much for your response. :good:

During enumerating section, the phone goes form Qualcomm Gobi..... (qdl) to qualcom inc. and the spamming still does not work. what am i doing wrong?
Expensive paper weight?????
Did i break it??? :crying:
Identical thing happened to mine. I'm still stuck in QDL mode myself. I have tried everything, but nothing works.
I found someone online that will restore the phone for $50, guess I will need to try that next.
I also waited 4 days for the battery to drain, it did nothing to help.

In the same situation. Did you get it fixed? I've done this twice before and worked perfectly. Now this time I finished all the steps but the charge light never came back on. i tried to start from the begining but now it won't list the sd*12/sd*4 when i type ls /dev/sd*. i've tried holding power for 10sec, replugging, different computer, waited 2 days, etc. Is it completely bricked?

yes, unfortunately so.
You will have to take it to a JTAG service or carrier/HTC, who might bill you for it.

Can you get into recovery mode?
Hi,
I have the exact same problem.
I cannot get into recovery. I tried Power + Vol. Up but that did not work (yet).
Did you leave it plugged into the wall charger while doing this, Braddison?
Also it does not show up on PC.

If I remember correctly I had it on charge and held down power and vol up. It did take a couple of minutes continuously holding down the buttons. Been fine ever since
If that fails try power and volume down for about 30seconds, I'm sure that's meant to hard reset phone
Thanks for your quick answer. I will try once more.
Same dead HTC One Mini here...two days ago the phone suddenly turned off (with somewhat of 80%-90% battery) and since then its dead. No LED, no charging, it even doesnt get warm when its being plugged into the charger. Pressed Power+Volume down (plugged or non-plugged) more than 2 minutes, and also Power+Volume Up more than two minutes.
adb shows no device. If i plug the phone into an USB-slot in a linux-machine dmesg doesnt says anything. So its dead or not? Since its not more than a half year old it should have warranty, but i think i wont get my photos and stuff. So this is an advioce to myself: never ever buy a phone without micro-sd-slot again!!!
cheers, jennix

I would try again after putting on charge for a few hours, ensuring that power and volume down are pressed simultaneously. i have read that its best to do this while in a bright room or shining a torch on the sensor, seems strange i know but its worth a try
good luck

Its a bit esoteric, isnt it? But nevertheless i tried it (at least the bright room) but it doesnt work. I will send it to T-Mobile and then i will hope that they didnt find that it has a CM11 on it...

hi all,
i got rid of the problem by going to my carrier. (a1 - vodafone, austria)
htc fixed it on guarantee (although i flashed a cm11-nightly)
the problem was: a damaged mainboard, which got replaced - took about two weeks..

thanks! Just sent mine to HTC, hope they fix it within warranty. Can I ask if ur data on the internal SD is stil intact or did you lose it all? And again someone with cm11 installed. Anyone with Sense had the same problem?
I have the exactly same problem, my phone was rooted with CM11 nightly when it died. I sent it to my carrier, but now they want me to pay 200$ for a new motherboard, because they found it was rooted and the warranty is voided. Even when I pay 200$, i still will have no warranty. And I had more than 1 year left. Is there a problem with CM11? How comes that they replace it for some people for free, and for some not? Please, give me a tip how to proceed and do I really have any options from this point?
These horror stories make me wanna stick to stock based roms. I'm a big fan of CM, but not if there's a chance it could fudge my mainboard.. real shame
or is this another example of another design fault with this phone?....

As they have to replace the motherboard it is an hardware issue, where I live rooting doesnt void warranty if there is an hardware issue. They have to give you warranty. Could you ask your carrier what exactly caused it and why the motherboard had to be replaced?

Hey. I sent it directly to AVARTO (service center here in Germany) they too wanted to charge me (around $ 240). Then I asked what exactly the problem was and they revised their statement. Sent it back for free within warranty. On the repair sheet it than said "not turning on. constantly".
Hi.
Another dead mini. S-OFF, TWRP, CM11.

Nexus 5 DEAD - QHSUS_BULK

Hello everyone,
This morning while I was having coffee, my phone started playing jokes on me. At first it got really slow while doing the easiest things, like checking a mail, send a text and make a phone call. 10-15 After that I get a notification, Phone was locked, I tried to unlock it. I did spam the button like 5-10 times, Screen won't come up, but notification LED was working. At that point I thought that the power button was pretty much done for. Nope not the case. I held it down for 10 seconds, phone actually powered down. No chance in hell I could turn it back on. At that point I just went home. Got home plugged the phone into my PC. As soon as I did that, Windows started to check for a driver, had to wait almost 5 minutes to find QHSUSB_BULK.
Now, doing a bit of a search I found out that this could be the result of different problems, One that has to do with the memory just dying cause yeah, Nexus 5 and the eternal memory problem +Lollipop screw around with Data partitions, another that has to do with Roms, another that had to do with custom recovery.
What the hell is in my case? I run a custom Rom and a custom recovery, Atm I have Cyanogenmod 12.1 and lateste TWRP recovery.
I have a handful of tools at my disposal, a Cable, a good keyboard and a iron will.
In this case, Can I do something to fix my phone from home? Can't really send into warranty as I have custom software that's running on it and I'll just get a generic response that basically tells me that my warranty was voided due to custom software running on the terminal. We all love generic response like that, Don't we?
TLR: Phone died this morning, I couldn't unlock the screen and I thought it was the power button be cause, the notification led was still working. At that point I just powered it down by holding the power button down for 10 sec.
I wasn't able since to power it back on. If I connect it to my PC I get QHSUSB_BULK.
Hopefully there's some one who can point me in a direction ASAP. I have no backup phone atm and I really need this one to actually be ALIVE again.
Can't send it to Warranty because I run custom software on it. GSM Services/Fix Shops are out of the question too.
Pls halp ASAP
Will pay in Galactic Credits.
Thanks!

I have the exact same problem but this answer doesn't help. This solution requires that you can turn your phone on in the first place. He specifically said he can't turn the phone on at all. Same with me, no matter what I've got nothing. Need help!

Thanks to everyone.
I used the board diag - clicked Start and... it said "failed to open partition from EMMC". The test aborted. I think my phone is gone for good.
Oh and I had to take the battery out, plug it in, and sometimes re-attached to latch that goes over the battery several times before I could even get it to read anything in Device Manager. Before that it would say "failed USB connection".
This all started yesterday when the phone just spontaneously put itself into a boot loop while on charge. I tried to do a factory reset but it froze. After several hours I tried to cancel it. The Nexus went full brick.
Thanks again

blocked on black screen

Hello,
Ive tried to look for a similar situation in other thread but each case is different so i open a new one.
This morning, when i took my idol 3 the screen did not switch off when pressing power button. I thought it was battery but when i plugged charger,nothing happened except the led is on continuously. I kept power button pressed for 10 seconds. The phone vibrates shortly but still a black screen, no sound and no reaction from the touch panel. Power+vol+ did not led me to my twrp recovery. What can i do now to get it work again? The phone is rooted with Rom Eu 4.2 from murigny64 and it is the first time i encounter this issu. Thanks in advance for helping me
Tonight i disconnected the battery for about 30min then connect it again. Then i tried to start in recovery: Just a vibration but no display and no sound. I unplugged/plugged the battery again and try to start. Same problem. What the hell could happen? Maybe a deffective hardware
Insist on boot ( normal or in to recovery with vol + and power).
That is a hardware brick.
Happened to me to some times, insist, it will unbrick

I charged the phone all the night but nothing better and the phone is not detected on pc so no adb action possible.
Maybe the battery is dead...

Can be, can be to... To bad if is battery.
But still trying to boot, is very difficult to.
.
thank you for advise but it's still not working. I spend about 30 minutes trying different combination of button: power pressed until it vibrate, power+vol up, power+vol down, power+vol up & down, discontinuous press of power with charger and no charger....and so on. Its a complete failure.
If it is the battery, there was no sign of weakness before (short life, random shutoff, ....) . It happen suddenly: I lock my screen before sleeping and the next morning no way to switch it on again.
I thought I would avoid problems for long with a twrp recovery, a backup and adb tools on my pc.....but for hardware issues its useless.
How can I be sure it is battery before purchasing another one ?

If it was the screen the touch panel would work and i could sense vibration when typing the pin code no?
The led bright continuously when i plug instead of flashing slowly as it used to do when charging. That why i think its battery.
...and when i start in recovery the phone is not detected on my pc
That's hardware brick. Don't give up, try to boot, normally or in recovery, keep trying it will boot.

Therefore the back can be dismantle and we can access battery and that s what i did.
Yes i disconnected it for several hours and pluged it again but it gave me the same result. And now it doesnt vibrate anymore when i keep the power button pressed a while.
I purchased a battery on internet and im waiting for delivery to test if im right or not. Il feedback about the test.
Anyway its nice from you to look for any solution. Thanks

I guess you did everything properly, so just one thing: at first time when I did this, I choosed the wrong cable (which didn't 'reset' the phone), so I hope you pulled both out.

I think i choose the good connection: This is the one over the battery with 6 wires: 2 red, 2 white and 1 black (see picture attached). I just left it with a small screwdriver to disconnect.

Hello,
I received the new battery today.
So i unpacked it, i unplugged the old one and plugged the new one ...and guess what happened......the same bevahiour as with the old battery: when i press the button power, it vibrate but it doesnt start neither in recovery nor in normal mode.
I just precise that the new battery is charged at 50%........:crying:
So the problem is not the battery but it was the only thing i could test by myself before sending the phone to alcatel for repair.
Im still wondering what could happen to my idol 3: It had been woking perfectly for months and one morning with no warning, it refuse to switch on. Ok sorry for annoying us and hope it wont happen with yours.
I hope alacatel will apply the guarantee although the phone is rooted and bootloader unlocked....because its a hardware issue i think.
Hello,
Just to conclude. The phone got back from repair after 10 days. They have changed motherboard, battery and also the back that was damaged. Its a brand new phone .

Bricked OnePlus 7 Pro?

Okay, so I know this has been posted a lot but I am pulling my hair out!! :crying:
So this is what happened, I downloaded this app from google play. It had 4.8 rating, whatever. But it's purpose was to, keep your game playing in the background when your screen is locked. Everything was working fine, until my phone lagged and restarted, I got it to turn back on like normal. But then, random shut offs has been happening ever since.
I decided to do a factory reset on my phone, it was okay for a day, but when I played a game on the phone, it crashed
and shut off again.
Now it won't open, i tried everything! and when I say everything, I mean every basic way to restart it. Except flashing it. Because it can't even turn on on it's safe mode. it has been on a coma for 3 hours now, it is plugged now on its original power brick and chord.
My pc doesn't recognize it.
I have 2 questions, will I still be able to fix this? And, can a technician fix this. Like 100% fix it when I decide to go to a tech tomorrow?

Try after few hours and check if the pc detects it. Technician can fix it but try one time on the pc tomorrow before your leave for technician. Also change the usb cable and try.

Thanks! I already tried changing the cable, I will try again once I get home. But, if it won't work, I'll go for the tech. Do I have to go to a oneplus tech? or any mobile tech can do? I read that this is "Hard brick" and somewhat impossible to fix. I really just need something to calm me down. LOL! so you telling me that a tech can fix it for sure, made me a little less worried.

Best will be sent to oneplus if accessible either you have warranty or not. If that's a hardbrick then you can't be sure if you local technician can fix it.

Okay, so I know this has been posted a lot but I am pulling my hair out!! :crying:
So this is what happened, I downloaded this app from google play. It had 4.8 rating, whatever. But it's purpose was to, keep your game playing in the background when your screen is locked. Everything was working fine, until my phone lagged and restarted, I got it to turn back on like normal. But then, random shut offs has been happening ever since.
I decided to do a factory reset on my phone, it was okay for a day, but when I played a game on the phone, it crashed
and shut off again.
Now it won't open, i tried everything! and when I say everything, I mean every basic way to restart it. Except flashing it. Because it can't even turn on on it's safe mode. it has been on a coma for 3 hours now, it is plugged now on its original power brick and chord.
My pc doesn't recognize it.
I have 2 questions, will I still be able to fix this? And, can a technician fix this. Like 100% fix it when I decide to go to a tech tomorrow?

Did you try holding key combination while connecting to the PC or you just connected it to the PC and nothing happened?

I tried holding the key combination for a good minute, the power button embedded on my finger LOL! But yes, the PC did not detect anything.

Well, we don't have Oneplus "store" here, just resellers, and they don't offer warranties nor fixes.
I tried opening again, but it's still not responding.

Not the power button. Volume buttons. You can get in EDL mode that way and maybe it will be recognized if bricked. There are 2 possibilities, it's either brick or hardware damage. If bricked only, it can be unbricked. IF damaged, well, the Service center.
Try this:
Power your device off
Maintain volume up and volume down keys to get into Qualcomm EDL mode. So, Volume Up and Down together hold and plug the cable in while holding the buttons. If you get any detection, there is hope.
Use MSM Tool, of course with corresponding ROM for flash.
