Help I killed my Tablet - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried to update my original shield tablet to MM. But I was stuckon the nvidia logo. So i decided to flash the factory OS by fastboot. From my view all went fine, then i typed a fastboot reboot and the screen went off.
Now i can't turn it on, tried to long press power button with an w/o volume down. But it doesn't matter what i try it won't turn on.
I don't if i should charge (LED works), or wait until it fully discharges an hope it comes alive again.
PS: battery was about 30 percent while i started the flash, i think it should stay about the same when plugged in to my pc.
Thanks in advance for any help.

No change function while in fastboot so if it took a long time it is possible battery is dead
Try a full charge and come back to it

Yeah, try to full charge it. since booting also consumes up battery juice..

Check if in your devices manager there is apx driver missing which mean you out of luck because as soon as you factory image the shield you unlock device . No lock bootloader no warranty , I find my self in the same situation <exactly> currently my tablet is also dead. HARD BRICK

I doens't change anything in the device manager when i plug it in.. Also it didn't fully charge since yesterday, it only got warm and still orange led. Guess i will try to RMA it anyway.

pls help: my phone is dead!

I was erasing a file (some movie), and all of a sudden the screen went blank and the phone died. Now it doesn't respond to anything. Pressing the power button doesnt turn it on, power + volume does nothing, and the led doesn't even light up if I plug it in. Its completely dead. Is there any way to remove the battery? Will that even help? Do you have any suggestions? Greatly appreciated!
ps.: I was running trickdroid, not that it's to blame, just for info.
Tried to boot into bootloader?

Thanks, yes. But the phone doesn't react at all.
Try holding the power button down for 15 seconds to make sure it's "off" and not just locked up. Then hit power again and see if it comes back up.

Nah that doesn't work either. Time to see if my warranty is really void. They have to turn on the phone to check the bootloader, right? If so they'll find out about it only after they had fixed the phone

(anyone here, know how to install Trickdroid v7.1 for htc one s with the s3 processor? i tried to install it, but it always failed, currently i'm using Trickdroid V1.0.0 for C2 )
I am afraid your phone may be dead.
The only reports I have seen about these devices getting truly bricked all involved deleting large files.

Htc One S dead

Hello guys,
I'm experiencing something bad with my HOS. Briefly, yesterday morning I plug the phone from charger at 06.00 am. Play with it for a while and then go to work. Used it at work for a few phone calls until 10.00 am (so 4 hours on fully charge battery). Then at 10.00 am I went into a meeting and left the phone out of my sight for 20-30 minutes. When I came back from the meeting I realize that the phone was closed. I try to open it (power button) but nothing. Press power for 10-30 seconds with volume down - still no effect.
Then I took the charger (the original one that I always use to cherge it) and plug it, left it for 2-3 minutes and press power. The phone starts but all I have is the white screen with HTC logo and if I press the power button + volume down the phone goes into bootloader. That's all I can do with it for now.
I have stock rom, bootloader is locked and I never try to root the phone. Is it any chance to repair it by myself or I have to sent it to the repair shop.
many thanks in advance.

try holding the power button for 10-15 seconds, until all 3 buttons light up and the phone restarts itself. Let go of power button when after 3 buttons light up 3 times and see if that helps?
I've already do that. When I press power nothing happen. I'll have to plug into charger, let it for 2-3 minutes and then press power. The phone starts, white screen with HTC logo appears and then phone restarts and same white screen and .... again and again. If I hold volume down key then the phone enters into bootloader,I can use the options clear storage or factory reset, and restart the phone then same thing happens (white screen with logo and restart by itself). All these only when pluged. If unpluged nothing happen when I press power button.

Might sound silly but have you charged it for more then a few minutes because last time my phone died I had to charge it for about half hour before it would boot right.
I'll try this, but is strange if the phone run out of battery since it was used for about 4 hours since fully charged. Will be back with a feedback. Thanks for the tip.

Ya that's why I said it might be silly but still give it a try. I have seen odd battery drain where it could drain it in a few hours.
I say it's strange because I was on stock rom with same installed apps for about 2 months. Anyway the phone is now charging and I see something different with the led for charging as it turns orange as it should be when charging. Yesterday, when I try to start the phone,plugged in, the led was blinkering somehow. I'll be back with feedback later, I'll let the phone charge until led turns green.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Good news, after keep it to cherge until the led turns green, the phone boot up. I perform a factory reset immediatelly and an sd card clean up and now I'm installing my favourite apps. I'll be monitoring close my phone for the next days to see if sudden battery discharges happens.
Many thanks for your advice @darknites:good:

Np dude. Not sure where the drain is I used apps to look and it showed nothing and only seen it on sense roms and mostly only happened after flashing and setting it up but if you see it just roboot and it should fix it.
my phone is now dead the same way.
battery was fully drained, when turning on it doesn't go further than the bootanimation ( stays at htc one s logo).
Now i have fully charged the battery (green led) and it still doesn't boot up the right way.
Any help? I don't want to run the RUU.

Could try reflashing the rom if that dont work think you going to have too RUU it but use one that has the same Hboot as you got now.
What do you mean by not boot the right way? Can you pass the white screen with Htc logo? Did you try factory reset? Was your phone rooted?

Its not a good idea for him to use factory reset in bootloader since he not on stock rom.

I believe (but can not back it up) that you could have just re-flashed the boot image only. Still 10x probably.. altho that may have been the charging time, not the flashing.. who knows.

[Q] Problem with screen/respond

Hi everyone!
First, thanks for a great forum :good:
I've had my Nexus 5 in some months, running on Franco Kernel and Purity Rom. It's been working flawless.
This morning when my alarm went off, I couldn't swipe the screen and stop the alarm. It was like whatever i did, the phone had it's "own life".
Then I pressed the power button for 10 seconds and it made a hard reboot. After reboot the phone went beserk, and without I touched the screen, it started to enter a lot of apps, close them, roll the menu bar down and up, enter more apps, close them again.
For the last 1½ hours its been like that. Only for a minute did I have control of it, then i rebooted into recovery, but then it went crazy again, like some invisible person is clicking everywhere on the screen.
Luckily the phone still responds on the power button, so i could lock the screen in recovery mode, before it did something nasty.
Any ideas on what to do?
I have ADB turned on, so maybe i could push a new ROM or something?
Maybe something via ODIN? (Idk if Odin works on the Nexus5, but i've had other smartphones that could be restored with Odin if everything went wrong.)
Looking forward to your replies.
Thank you for your time!
Have a nice friday
Was the phone connected to a charger when all these strange things happened?
I noticed that the screen somehow acts crazy when the phone gets charged. Only happens to me when I'm using my old Galaxy S2 charger though. As soon as I unplug the phone everything's back to its normal state - no lags/stutters/unwanted activities what so ever

Hi,
You could try sideloading a new rom... But this smells like a hardware issue to me...

[Q] xt925 brick, can't even fastboot

I think I really outdid myself this time, was installing an official firmware on my fiancee's phone(Blur_Version.98.50.26.XT925.Brasil.en.BR) trough RSD Lite (6.1.6) and at the end of the process the phone shut down and didn't finish the rebooting process. Since then I can't get it to turn on or access fastboot. Even connecting it to a charger wont turn the led on.
So, the hard questions to ask:
1. Is there anything I can do? Anything at all?
2. Even if I can't. What may have happened? I used RSD other times and I have modded half a dozen phones and a brick happened to me before.
Thank you so much, I am probably gonna get chewed since her work depends on it and we will have to get an other one, but any nudge in the right direction or cold hard truths will be appreciated.

It almost seems like the battery died while you were flashing. What was the battery at when you started?
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk
I would try a Motorola Factory Adapter or mod a USB cable to act like one. If it still fails to boot then your looking at a hard brick.

Quick update,this morning when I connected to a power source it turned the green light on(left ir connecting for the night). Tried connecting to my pc and it will play the connected/disconnected sounds over and over again. Still can't fastboot it.
I imagine it might have been some sort of battery issue but it was over 60% when I began installing the firmware and the process took less than 10 minutes.

Flashing will kill battery. You should always try to do it with a full battery. Anywho, does anything show up in the device manager on your PC when you connect the phone?
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using Tapatalk
Nope, my pc will make sounds as if it was being plugged and unplugged repeatedly.
Also when I press the power and volume buttons to reboot in fastboot or recovery (the cell was unlocked, rooted and had the latest JB philz recovery ) the green light will flash but the screen wont turn on.
Nothing shows up at all? That sucks. Hmmm, leave the phone on the charger overnight and then see if you can get into fastboot.

Dead?

Hi,
Been a happy camper since purchase. Am currently on fusionjacks's slimsaber omni marshmallow rom. All was normal today but an hour ago took the phone out of my pocket and it seems dead - won't turn on, doesn't appear to be charging...nothing.
There doesn't appear to be any physical damage and it wasn't knocked or dropped.
I've tried long holding on/off button, trying to boot to recovery and bootloader - nothing
Any ideas??
Maybe the battery is discharged. You should plug it in and let it charge for a while

I had the same issue, after searching in all the forums I found an odd solution.
Just press the power button for like, 30s or until it restarts.
I was scared because I'm a flashaholic, but everything returned to normal.
Hope it helps.

Hi,
Thanks, yes that did it. I'd held for quite a while prior, but yes a very long hold and voilà!
