So I just unboxed this tab, and booted it up, logged in, updated some apps from the play store. Charged teh battery to 100%. Then I attempt to open up hangouts and it freezes and then the screen turns off like in a timeout delay. It refuses to reboot, or recovery mode or fastboot mode. Plugging it in makes no difference. It's practically bricked and I think the warranty is done for. I had hoped that it was still on somehow and if I could just let teh battery run out and plug it in it would boot up again. 24h delay in plugging in, no response still.
How should I go about this?

Hi Guys,
I'm in deep trouble (i think)....I was updating my Sony C4 (E5333) dual yesterday night when suddenly the updating stops, the phone turn off and from then on, my phone is dead. When I charge it, the LED indicator is flashing RED light even after hours of charging. I tried to switch it on but nothing happen. I tried connecting it to my laptop (windows 8.1) but it is not recognize with red LED light on whenever I plug it to my laptop. The LED light only turns green if push the volume button down and plug it in my laptop, but it will stop after a few minutes the LED light turn red again. I even tried to repair the phone via PC Companion and it went well until after the preparation steps where it is in downloading step...on the downloading steps, it took hours saying it is downloading but nothing on the progress bar...seems like it is stuck there forever....
Is there any other way to get my phone back to normal state because I don't want to send it to SONY center (if can) because I know it will takes forever and I need the phone ASAP for work and study plus it is a special gift by someone before he passed away....
Please, please help me guys...
Thank You in advance....

So I had storage issues and I had to do a factory reset because apps were crashing due to lack of storage space. Did a factory reset everything went well, rooted my phone checked with root checker everything was fine. Then I decided to install Cyanogenmod 13 so I had to unlock bootloader. Tried to do that and I had some problems with that (pc didn't recognize my phone). After several tries I restarted my phone and then he just started vibrating with black screen. Tried everything cleaning the power button smacking the phone a bit etc. nothing worked. Left the phone vibrating until battery drained. Plugged it in and it just started vibrating all over again. When I hold power and volume up phone stops vibrating for a few seconds and the it starts again. When I plug it in without the battery screen shows battery missing message so I don't it's a screen issue. I'd appreciate if someone can help me with this problem. Thanks in advance!

I have a Moto G2 recently updated to android M. Since the last few days, I'm facing the following issues,
1) Notification Panel does not come down completely, the quick settings don't show up on the screen, only shows, "no notifications".
2)Home button does not work when an app is open, it only works when I'm on "recent apps".
3)Even though I have set up password lock, when i press the power button to unlock the phone, it unlocks without asking for password.
4)It won't let me factory reset. The "reset" button in settings doesn't light up (simiar to a button you arent allowed to press) so when i press t, there is no response. Resetting through recovery mode doesnt work, it shows the resting android saying "no command" and eventually starts up with the same files, apps and settings I had before.
These problems did not start immediately afer updating to marshmallow.

it used to be that when i plug in the charger there would be a green battery icon that fills up as it charged. Now there's just that 8 lines loading icon that disappears after a few seconds, then the screen goes black. I know There is power because when I press the home button in the dark, there is a very faint glow. I tried all sorts of cables, batteries and chargers. Nothing works.
There's no problem when charging when ON.
Additional Info:
S3 mini
rooted and unrooted a couple of times. Binary count is 6.
Now with stock recovery and firmware i8190dxamj1
battery is not original

This phone doesn't appear to have a way to factory reset it, by using the hardware buttons. I've tried pressing the power button and the volume up at the same time, as well as pressing the power and the volume down button at the same time. I've even tried pressing both volume buttons while pressing the power button at the same time, all that got me was into "safe mode", which doesn't do a thing for me, or the phone. I've even gone to "live chat" with Kyocera and Boost mobile, they have both told me that there is no way to get in and reset the phone. (Unless I want to send the phone and $29 to some address they'll give me, and they will load the "original software". ) I don't want to do that, I bought the phone for only $10 from a thrift store.
Is there any way I can find, and download the "original software", or whatever else might work on this phone, from anywhere?
thanks for any help you can give me!!
