I have a samsung galaxy S from T-mobile, It became unresponsive and it started for no reason.
It is a locked , never rooted no firmware or software updated ever. Just had some Apps from marketplace though no new apps recently.
this is what happened. I left it for charging and the battery was dry. i gotta a call, so disconnected a/c charging and I could not swipe answer button and the phone kinda went to freeze, then screen went black. I took the phone connected for charging and after some time tried to hit power button , it starts the flash logo and t-mobile logo screen and then to the home screen which was black except for some icons in the top toolbar.
so i started again and went on like 4 times and i gotta screen like ( i think downloading screen ) . thats it . THe phone never charged or started again, I tried 3 button combos and all the basic recovery steps for this and not worked. I have been hunting for answer last couple of days before deciding to write my own thread. I am now convinced my phone is fully bricked , what should i do now?
So you think your bricked... Well good thing is your not bricked.
The information you gave us is not very clear.
I would take a guess and I would say its the battery. Replace the battery with a new one.

same problem It's completely dead. Won't turn on at all, I've tried all the key combinations.
Charge light doesn't even turn on... Does someone know what to do? Is it even possible to flash with it not able to turn on?

dont think there is anything to do. have sent it back to provider.. Flash is impossible cause u dont get any reaction when u connect.
Same here !!!
I had this same problem with my device already TWICE..... in two weeks. I bought my phone, installed what i need.... in first week phone got dead overnite.... no charging light, no reset, nothing.... I put in on warranty repair.... after it came back the statement said that what I said did not appear so they reflashed it to newer ROM only....how I don't know when the phone was completely dead... I again installed all I need a next week after happened the same!!!! At evening phone was charged full and at morning it was dead. So second time i put it on warranty repair and they said that is my problem, that I should not install any another apps from MS store !!!! I mean what the F**K, I buy overexpensive phone and I should use it without additional apps from MS store??? then I need only Nokia from 1990 and I'll be set to phone and write sms My 8X is still in repair so we will see what will happen next time.... but to say truth, I'm fed up with this phone already...
Just happened to me few days ago with the battery at about 10%. after i totally gave up and ready to send it for warranty repair. After a day, it started again as the battery was fully drained. it seems that the phone freezed somewhere with the screen off and the only trick was to drain the battery. no key combination was working and no charging lite. It could be so easy if the battery was accessible, unfortunately it's not ((
phone dead

Hello,
I searched for died 8X Phones. I have the same problem TWICE with my HTC 8X.
The firstdevice is ran 6 weeks, then the repair center has replaced my phone with a brand new one. After 2 weeks exactly the same problem (no function, no loading, no reset, no connection) with the second one
Have anyone an idea which function or app the phone lets crashing?
I woke up this morning to my HTC 8X being powered down when I know it had at least 45% battery. When I tried to power the device back on it would not come back on. I contacted HTC and they told me to press camera button+vol down+power for fifteen seconds and when the device vibrates to let go of the power button but keep the camera+vol down buttons pressed, when I attempted this nothing happend so the HTC representative on the phone advised me to just send it in for repair. I've owned the phone for a little over a month and a half, was on the latest firmware, and had the phone protected with full body invisible shield and HTC doubleshot case.
Had this problem yesterday...suddenly phone died and nothing
waited till i got home from work and plugged it in to the laptop and it sprang back to life saying it was compleatly out of charge....was showing 80 odd % before hand
Its all in chronological order. As the title says my phone wont charge. USB CABLE from PC or wall charger it just wont charge. Following some threads i also removed the battery and connected it to main but no led would show up. Right now i've removed the battery and charging on universal charger fine,
So here is the history. I dont know what can cause it not to charge. While i was at university my phone fell on the ground. It was not from height as i was just sitting on the sidewalk and it fe ll down. Then I came back home. I have ICS Ruu Saga on it which i'm not happy about and wanted to go back to GB ever since i realized that my camera quality is worse than before and my Subway Surfer game is not smoother any more,
Seeing some threads I selected the recovery option in bootmode (vol down+power). After few second a red triangle came showing ! sign. I removed the battery and re-inserted as the power key wont work. When i re-inserted the battery and powered up but it was different boot method. before selecting recovery option the booting of phone was smooth..but after that it stucked for a few seconds first and then came the home screen.
After all this as my battery was getting low i decided to put it on charge. I connected USB Cable to charge it and realized after sometime it isnt being charged,,,there was no orange led that usually indicates its being charged.
So thats all. I dont know if dropping the phone was cause of it or doing recovery ( note: i never made a backup of my phone every..i dont know why i did it, in hoping that it would go back to GB itself) and the appearing of red trianlge with ! mark and me removing the battery did it.
Please help me. I spent entire night on finding the solution but couldnt find anything.
Phones warranty is over..Its not rooted or has CWM as i dont know that stuff.

that thread first,
there are a few hints
Hi, i have an s6 (non edge), i do have it insured so not sure if i would be best trying to get it swapped or see how it goes?
I have had no problems up to now, been using it most of the day fine, the last time i looked at my phone was probaby about 30 mins before this happened and it had about 75% battery.
before i took my phone out my pocket and it was completely off, i kept pushing the power button in and getting no response at all, i plugged the phone into the mains and nothing happened, no charge light etc..
So i just left it connected to the mains with nothing happening for about 15 mins, then out the blue i pressed the power button in again and it come on, at it was starting i noticed it said android is updating an app (as it does when you have just installed a new fw) but this was only for 1 app by the looks, i hadn't installed anything new i can think of, not sure if thats related or not important?
Anyway my phone seems ok at the moment but now im not sure if i should just take it back the shop and get it changed seems i have it insured anyway, the phone is around 3 months old now.
Sorry, i am just editing this, i have just remembered one main point which i forgot i done earlier when reading that it can help your phone, i did go into dev options and i changed the 'limit background processes to 4' as i read this can help it, not sure if this was a bad idea?
Any advice?
Thanks

Possibly a defective battery.
Okay so it may be a little redundant but I'm gonna start from the beginning I bought a pixel 2 about a year and 1-2 months ago on Amazon I immediately knew I needed root and a custom ROM so I put linage on it as it was at the time the only ROM being updated I then switched to 2 others pixel dust and it was great but was missing a few features so I tried another one I'm still on and terrified to turn my phone off I'm not blaming the ROM
I went to bed the other day charging my phone got up on 100 scrolled Facebook for maybe 10-15 and it was on 78 I figured maybe I was on it longer than I thought or maybe it was too bright idk but I thought ok I'll go out and take less than 5 and I'll be back to charge it but I never got a chance the screen went black and never came back on. I plugged it in for an hour and nothing. I tryed PC it didn't show up at all no device manager nothing so I took the screen off and unplugged the battery (hesitantly) as I didn't know if it would ever work again I then used my heat gun on it set at about 445 (I don't know if it's bad solder just trying something new) I then put it back together and when I did it was in qqm 9008 (hard bricked) so I unplugged the battery again and it reboot to recovery before rebooting to the os.
Now I'm scared on what to do as I don't want the device to die incase it won't turn on again cause I lost work and can't afford another but I need to know if there's anything I can do to ensure that it doesn't happen long enough for me to flash a new ROM incase it's the ROM so please anyone with this phone that can help me out even a little would be great
