Is my phone dead? Please help - Onetouch Idol 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, here is the deal.
I was in middle of messaging my friend on Facebook when suddenly, my phone went to a black screen.
Model: Idol 3 6045X
OS: AlekOS 3.1
Battery: around 15% (I think, can't be positive but it was low with no sign of battery saver turning on aka no orange mode)
Rooted: Yes
I tried to reboot it in several ways, tried to charge it(notification led lights up as indication that its charging). I am out of ideas, can anyone help and guide me a way to determine if its dead or can I somehow bring it back to life.

[Q] Can only boot by plugging charger????

Hi
Can anyone help please? Also, are there anyone having similar issue.
Issue: Pressing the power button is not starting my device. In order to power on I have to connect charger (not usb with PC) and then press power button. What I have noticed is that once I switch off my phone it gets in to "emergency/recover mode". I came to this conclusion because after I switch the phone off, take battery out and put back in and then connect usb cable with my PC. I can see OMAP driver loads and also in the PC's Device Manager I am able to see LG CDMA.... under "ports".
It was not like this until i started several attempts to flash baseband.
Sequence of actions
Here is the sequence of actions I went through and end up having my phone at this stage
1. Followed the procedure (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17177547&postcount=2) step by step using LG flash tool. The application was constantly crashing (PC is running on XP pro). Before flashing baseband I flashed GB hence I lost radio.
2. To bring back my radio I had to reflash 2.2 following the same procedure (emergency recovery method) in the link given in baseband flashing.
3. After finishing the recovery flash I could not start my phone using power button. I started thinking that I bricked my phone. I left it for a day. Then I thought that the battery is fully drained and is the reason for not powering on. When I connected charger I started seeing LG logo and also the phone was started. I was more excited and happy that my phone was not bricked. After this point I need charger connected everytime when i want switch on my phone. so, I am scared to swtich off my phone unless I have charger handy to me.
4. I removed all the application (LG flashing related) including LG drivers I installed before. Now I reinstalled all the necessary app and drivers for baseband flashing. This time baseband flashing was done successfully (though at 22%). Then I flashed GB rom and everything works fine.
The only issue i have is, I can not switch on my phone without charger connected.
If anyone knows solution please help me.
Thanks in advance.

I used to have the same problem,
I think its a problem about boot,
when I use lg tools it always gives error, because phone wont boot without charger, so it cant continue upgrading
I try flasing original kdz file from lg flash tool, and use emergency rescue mode,
I dont know but it somehow repair the boot
you can fix permissions before you use lg tools.
what error do you have while using lg tool?
can you post the screen capture

After i uninstalled all the drivers (incl. LG tools) and reinstalled and I am not seeing any more error while using LG tools. I even flashed GB baseband twice but no use. The link you have given explains the same issue I have.
I think you have to install froyo version of baseband and firmware first,
then try

But then my phone can't go back to the original ROM.
If u find help on the DRAM error please share.

Blu One Life XL - Stock ROM from Wiko UK

After searching endlessly to find a stock rom for my cousin´s Blu One Life XL, I finally found one that works.
Keep in mind that I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device.
The Blu One Life XL is exactly the same phone as Wiko Ridge 4G. (Do not get confused as I did. I flashed the Ridge Fab 4G and got an inverted Screen as the Fab 4G has bigger screen).
THIS IS FOR THE QUALCOMM SNAPDRAGON VERSION. DON´T USE IT ON MEDIATEK.
How to flash the ROM:
1. Download the rom from the link provided
2. Extract it.
3. Run the "RIDGE 4G_V17.exe" as Administrator
4. With the phone completely turned off and disconnected from PC, hold both volume up and volume down buttons and insert the cable while holding them together, wait till the phone lights the screen but not boot.
5. Drivers will be recognized automaticly.
6. Press the Arrow Down button (Download).
7. It will get stucked in 94%. Thats fine. Wait till it says "Download error"
8. Disconnect the cable.
9. Boot the phone and when it asks to erase everything because the encryption failed, says yes.
10. Enjoy.
Donwload the ROM and Flashing Manual:

Sony Z3 D6633 is dead , wiped system accidentally ,Led not Blinking, screen blackout

Hello There
I was trying to hard reset my Sony Z3 D6633 and I firstly wiped the Rom then after that I tried to install Stock Rom using "Sony Mobile Flasher by Androxyde" , unfortunately the power went of while it was flashing and now the phone doesn't even boot or show any thing on the screen , and the led doesn't even blink , I tried the following :
-pressing the volume down then connecting it to the flasher (No Response)
-pressing the yellow reset button in sim tray 10 times then connecting the charger (No Response)
-holding volume up and power together (No response)
I'm currently putting it in charger but it doesn't give any response , I think I deleted an important part in the system , is there's any software that could help me ,if someone could guide me I would be very grateful for him/her
Usually a normal flash with a flash tool shouldn't brick your device in a way that it can't enter stock recovery or download/flash mode.
Did you check the device manager when connecting with volume up/down?
You can try EMMA by Sony to flash full stock, but you need to follow a tutorial to set it up (there's a specific file you need to put in the install directory of the program to skip the devs login).
When connecting the charger does the red LED light up?
Resolved
Sorry for the long absence, after three days of posting this i was about to give up until I plugged my phone into the charger and the led turned on which was a good sign that now I know that the device is still working, after charging it for a couple of hours I connected it to the PC and used "Sony PC Companion" and followed it's steps, and the device was restored to it's original firmware.:laugh::laugh::laugh:

Weird Bootloop (not actually a bootloop)

Phone: J4+ (SM-J415F)
I wanted flash the stock ROM via Odin on pc and something went wrong (i don't know what) and now the phone shows "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the emergency function in the Smart Switch PC software." I tried to go in the download mode but the phone "restarts" every 2 seconds when i connect it to the pc or the charger.The recovery didn't work either.
Note: The phone doesn't start even if it is not connected to the PC or to a charger.
I'm also stuck in this weird .non. bootloop
Hey, I had this problem before. The Battery maybe depleted during flashing. You have to find a way to charge it.
Try to boot into Odin warning screen or the IMEI screen, it's where the device won't reboot while your connected to a charger, then give it some time to charge until you have enough time to flash your stock ROM.
Its what I did xd, just watch out for overheating. Using a GN variant.
I solved it by holding all 3 buttons and plugging into USB, it did the whole rebooting thing as usual but I kept the buttons held for about 15/20 reboots and then it FINALLY went into download and I could flash stock rom. If important or not, I'd left it charging all night but showed no sign of life whilst it 'charged'
Something to Try!
The issue seems to be with the HOME CSC is corrupted on the latest version - Probably something by Samsung to outdo the Combo files being produced.
PLUG-IN THE PHONE to PC (NOT WALL), Press and hold POWER + VOL UP + VOL DOWN to BOOT the phone to the ODIN message screen (with the warning), not the Download Screen itself > in this Screen release all the buttons at the same time, if you do this right you should still be on that same screen. Then simply press the POWER once. This should show a Barcode IMEI Serial, etc (Then leave for 5-15 mins on USB Charge then quickly swap with a wall charger).
Then leave it to charge for normally phone charging time. Later PUT INTO ODIN MODE and retry.
I have done this 3 times on this device to make sure this is the correct way.
You might get away booting it to ODIN and trying to swap the power but unsure about that.
After this Go to GOOGLE Search on your laptop/pc > search for SAMFIRM > Put in the model and Download the Combination for J415FXXU5ASK1 and then in SAMFIRM software click Download ROM > Tick the Binary Nature box and then Flash the Combination file in the AP button of ODIN then the on that ROM go to Orange Calculator (IME) type in *#0808# on the next screen select the option with ADB and RM & DMT (normally the bottom) then select PDA on the next and then SAVE and RESET then flash the SAMSUNG ROM with the CSC, not the HOME!<< Just a NOTE! Not Responsible for bricked devices if you do this wrong! Advice only! :good:
