Hello. Today when i was at the beach, i pulled my z5 from the bag and it was HOT, like 50°C on the outside, barrely holding it. When i pressed the power button it turned off. 3 short vibrations, like the vol+ and power burron combo.
I pressed the volup+power button and let the phone cool down.
After ~1h it was cool and i tryed to power it up.
After the power button press it vibrates ones and the screen doesn't turn on.
After a little 3 short red light led blinks and 1 long red led blink (around 10sec) and then the led notification turns off.
What could be wrong with the phone?
p.s. when i plug it to the charger the same thing happens... 3short red led blinks and 1 long, and then nothing.
Just send it to service, they will recover your device under guarantee.
Long story short, today i received a new device with 2years guarantee.
Thumbs up

How do I turn the phone on?
OK, not as stupid as it might sound; when the battery gets to 0 and the phone powers down, I have real problems powering it back up again. Even after it's left plugged in for a while, I just have a flashing orange notification light.
Pressing the power on button does nothing.
Pressing and holding the power on eventually makes the screen flash (hard reset?)
But the phone wont start up unless I unplug it.
Should the phone vibrate/blink/flash to show it is starting the boot up process?
For how long do you charge it after dead?
Is it with the original charger?
Sent from my HTC One S using XDA
it is totally normal for htc phones to do that. blinking yellow light means the battery is too low to power the system but it is still charging the battery. after 10-15 minutes of charging, the blinking yellow will change to stable yellow light after which you can press the power button to turn on your phone. hope this helps
Well its new and nothing happens when pressing power button, holding. Plugged in to AC and now has a orange light next to button. Guess 100% dead battery. 2nd time.. I gave up. Yeah nothing lol. Press on while plugged (left plugged in) in just blinks orange.

Just let it charge for 4-5 hrs, then try again, if you go, then exchange for another one. There is no trick to turn on a brand new device, possible bad power button, mainboard, battery what ever....or if you feel a very vibration while holding down the power button, possible screen issue.
So my nook HD is not even a year old i had it on charge all night long and it is not chargedthe light turns on green then goes to Amber collar for 10 seconds turns off then nothing then I've tried holding down the power button for 20 seconds nothing I hold down power button and end button and the charging indicator comes up and shows my tablet is dead what do I do
I bought my Zenfone 2 about 3 months ago and it had been working perfectly fine. However, on the day before yesterday the phone appeared to lag more than it usually does but I didn't pay much attention to it. Later in the evening I noticed that the battery was not reducing and it remained constantly at 50%, despite me having watched at least an hour of youtube on it.
Later, when I was watching some videos online, the phone suddenly turned off - I thought that was because I had used up all the battery, so I plugged it into the main using the original cable and charger, but the phone would not charge and the little light on the top right of the phone never came on. I could not turn on my phone and all the phone would do was buzzes every few minutes. So since then, I have kept the phone connected to the charger (and it carried on to buzz twice every few minutes). I tried to turn the phone on yesterday morning by long pressing the button on the top of the phone but it would again not turn on at all.
When the phone is being charged, it buzzes every 1 and a half minute regardless of which charger or cable I'm using, and when the phone is not being charged, it doesn't buzz
Someone tried to help and suggested me to do the 3 following things:
1) Hold the power button for 15 minutes then let go and press for another few secs to try to turn the phone on - I did this, and the phone did buzz when i tried to turn it on, but the screen is still off, as well as the small light on the top right
2) hold the volume up + power button for 5 seconds, then release volume up before releasing power button - my phone buzzed after holding both volume up + power button for a few seconds, but still the screen did not come on and neither did the small light.
3) hold the volume down + power button for 5 seconds, then release volume down before releasing power button - nothing happened. The phone didn't even buzz.
I don't really understand why I was asked to do them, but i did them anyway
I am currently in the UK and I bought my phone from abroad so I cannot get a warranty fix in the UK.
Please kindly help if you know the the problem is and please give me some advice.
Much appreciated. Thank you.

Let me explain.
About 2-3 months ago i woke up and my galaxy s6 was completely dead,
i tried booting in safe mode, dowload mode, i tired everything in my power but it just wouldn't turn on.
I went to a chinese shop to get it checked out (it's not under warranty) and they said that the motherboard was kaput,
so i just brought it home and put it in a drawer and forgot about it, and used some old galaxy fame i had laying around.
Today i was looking for something else and came across the galaxy s6 again, so i thought to myself that i might aswell stick the charger in it, just for gigs, the phone is already trashed so why not try, and to my surprise i the LED turns on, but it's not red, like if it's charging, it's a white-purpleish color and its just stays there, no blinking or anything, i tried unplugging it and the led stays, wich leads me to believe that the battery and expecially motherboard actually aren't completely busted. I tried plugging it into my laptop but no responses, i even tried having ODIN open while plugging it in, but 0 response.
So i tried the usual troubleshooting:
power button, power button + volume down + home button, power button + volume up + home button
but nothing worked, i have googled a bit and haven't really found anything about this, so i suppose the purple led is some sort of "red ring of death" telling me the phone is just done for? (it is 2 years old and it has been used to s*** so i wouldn't be surprised.)
update: i've fiddled around with the phone a bit more after writing this and i noticed it was getting a tiny bit warm, wich indicates either one of 2 things:
-the battery is just fine and it's charging;
-there is a short inside of the phone, wich is the cause of its death.
Update2: i saw with the corner of my eye that the led changed color, so i turned around and saw that the led turned to a magenta color (again not the red charging led) and then just turned off completely, i guess it's beacause i charged it for 2 minutes and uplugged it right after.
Update3: And i'ts gone, led's dead and it won't turn on anymore, RIP!
