[Q] TF Powers Up, but Touch Screen is not working so I cant get past the lock screen

I did a search but no solutions came up.
Basically, when I touch the screen to move the little lock icon over to unlock it nothing happens.
I powered it off by holding power for 10 seconds and then powered it on again.
No bueno, nothing happened.
Anyone else run into this and was able to solve it?

yes, i had the same problem, you will not like this..
do one step at the time and check if it works, if not continue to the next one
1. cold reboot (hold power button for 30-60 seconds),
you can try step 1 several times
2. turn it off, let it charge for 2-3 hours, turn it on
3. reboot to safe mode (this not really sure how i did it..lol.. i think is, turn off and turn on and quickly hold both volume keys until it boots up, if you did it correctly it will boot and say "safe mode" at the bottom left corner).
4. reset to factory settings, hold volume (-) and power key at the same time, (this will erase everything)
when i had this problem, i actually had to cold rebooted several times and reboot into safe mode after step 4 to have the touchscreen working again..I was about this close () to give up and return it to walmart..

I had the same thing happen to me, and all the rebooting in the world couldn't fix it. I don't know if you're still on stock rom or not, but what I did was reflashed the Prime rom and it worked again.

Nothing helped, even hard wipe.
Returned the TF.

I had this same problem... Unfortunately the only thing that worked was letting the power drain out. That was a huge pain because the Transformer has a killer battery and there are only so many times you can turn the screen on and off to drain it. It took about 4-5 days to fully drain. After that point I had upgraded to 3.1 and it has worked flawlessly since then... definitely a firmware problem not hardware.

[Q] Randomly lock and unlock (Power Button)

Sometimes my handy randomly lock and unlock. It's like the power button gets pressed automatically. also sometimes the APM shows up, and if i press back, it appears again and again, mostly 3 times, then the system starts new.only the system. If i charge it, the screen also randomly shows lock screen and a second later it's dark again.
It's like a ninja pressing my power button to troll me.
Could it be a voltage problem? Or a battery problem?
I'm on stock battery and OrDroid 3.0.1 and this problem appears since 4 days

Hi,
Sounds more like a problem with the actual power switch to me, but perhaps the following thred will be helpful for you. I haven't read through everything, but some of the posts report similar issues.

Moto G won't Boot after factory reset

I bought a Moto G for my little brother and it arrived yesterday. The first Problem which appeared was that I couldn't download apps. I started the factory reset and now it won't Boot anymore. There's just a black screen after the Boot animation and I can't even turn it off. Should I send it back to Motorola or should I try to fix it?

If you have only done this what you have described then i would say, yes, send it back.
Because only a factory reset should not bring your phone in this state.
but
Have you tried to press and hold the power button for 20 seconds?
Then it should be forced to switch off.
Sure......you have the option to fiddle around yourself.
In that case see the thread Restore Stock Firmware if above mentioned does not resolve your stuck system

I tried but the phone restarts. I sent a ticket to the Motorola support. Probably they'll tell me that I should sent it back.

Then lets see what Motorola says.

I have the same problem but it doesn't even let me turn the phone off

I have a the same problem, but i have a few more details:
It doesn't actually get to a boot animation, just to the Motorola logo screen that usually comes before the boot animation. it stays on that screen for 15 seconds, and vibrates 10 seconds into said 15 seconds, like the phone does when it goes into safe mode.
If you hold the power button for 20 seconds, it does turn off, only to turn right back on again and do the same thing
its is actually off for about 10 seconds, which is long enough to get into the fastboot menu, but every option that is selected from there gets the same old boot sequence i described before.
My moto g started doing this when i was using it on 14% battery, i went into the recent apps menu (bottom left button next to home button) when it just froze on that menu, but not showing any open apps. It then just turned off, no shutdown sequence, and when i tried to turn it back on the LED Indicator flashed like when it doesn't have enough battery to turn on. i then went into the fastboot menu (power+vol down) for no particular reason, and selected the QCOM option at the bottom out of curiosity. the notification light then did its low battery flash and the phone turned off. I then later plugged it in to charge and it has been stuck in that boot sequence with me running the battery down and trying everything in power, except contacting motorola. ( i didnt conatct motorola as my phone's screen got cracked about three weeks before all this started, so that would mean they wouldnt fix it for free)

My Moto g phone is not working even after factory reset ,, the error is it goes white or dark and i have to switch it off again..Sometimes it starts working and then again it gets switched off then again u have try factory reset or delete cache and just hope it work ..
Any one can help me with this issue please reply

I did factory reset to my Micromax Q350. Before resetting it was running Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 with July 2016 security updates. Now when I reboot the device, after language and SIM options, it asks me to select a WiFi. But it is stuck in "checking connection... this can take a while", even when the same WiFi is working with other devices. The Select WiFi and Checking connection pages can't be skipped as the Skip button is grayed out.
My device is not rooted and I don't want to root is as long as possible, so this answer doesn't help me.
I have tried various options suggested in forums and nothing is working for me. I have tried with and without SIM cards and Micro SD card as well.

Held power button, (or power+volume down) for a while, not too sure. Restarted after that. Just try all combination of keys for a while, might work.

Z5 hard bricked? Xposed?

So, phone was working great for a while. After the Camera 2.0 was working with xposed, I decided to flash xposed. Right after installing it, it started randomly rebooting, a lot. Like, whenever anything intensive was happening. About couple days later, I decided it wasn't worth it anymore and I ran the xposed uninstaller and cleared the caches.
It booted up okay. The launcher was pretty sluggish though. I opened up an app and I just got a black screen. Nav buttons were still there along with the status bar. Nav buttons were non responsive. Status bar could be pulled down though. I clicked settings, just to do something. Settings also didn't open. I hit the power button to do a restart, and selected restart. It just hung there for a couple of minutes. I forced a shutdown with Vol Up + Power. It did the three short vibrates and powered down.
Now, it won't power back up. Literally non responsive. It doesn't get to the Sony logo, it doesn't vibrate, screen doesn't turn on, and no LED status light comes on. I plug it into the charger, and no status light comes on. I tried Vol Up + Power again, and still nothing. I can't get it into fastboot or flash mode, or have it give any indication that it is alive. I tried pressing and holding the power off button by the SIM tray and get absolutely nothing.
Any ideas?

At least try plugging it in to your computer, see if it gets recognized

Ah, forgot to mention that. I'm on an osx box right now, but I'm seeing no indication of anything.

Have you held the power button for an extremely long time, like 15 seconds or so?

I'm not an expert in this area but I'd try to get to a windows computer and see if you can get the Sony software to recognize it. Might be able to reflash or repair

FOR ME, XPOSED ALWAYS DAMAGED SONY STOCKROM BEYOND REPAIR SO I ALWAYS HAD TO REFLASH,
but with you it seems extreme
1. holdin power and volume up button for 15 seconds should jerk device thrice and you device will go in to shutdown mode. try connecting to flashmode now
2. if (1) isn't working then old sony ion trick might do the magic, rubber band your z5 across screen horizontaly in a way that volume DOWN BUTTON is pressed for atleast 8+ hourse (over night) , this will DRAIN your battery fast and let motherboard clear the code. then put it to wall charger for over night! after 1+ day it should start giving you RED led / blink which means battery is extremely low. later you will get constant red led and finally you will come to stage where no led will be present. AT this point unplug and try connecting you device to FLASHMODE
3. Also remove sim tray during this process and next to SIM tray there is RESET button (musshy black or yellow soft button) , should be pressed with some soft pointy material ( see attached foto of my z5p)

Oneplus 8T bricked after dying last night

Was watching youtube videos last night before my phone died, now I can't get it to start boot into the OS. Not sure if this is relevant but my power button had been a little finnicky- rather maybe not the power button itself because it doesn't feel stuck or anything at all but I noticed that it would take an extra second or two after pressing the power button to get into my lock screen. I never really paid attention because it only happened once in a while and I would just restart my phone and be done with it. However I can't even get into the lock screen or anything now.
After my phone died last night I plugged it in right away and came back a while later to turn it on. I tried turning it on but noticed my phone just kept rebooting. It's still repeatedly rebooting and I can only get in the fastboot menu by holding down both volume buttons when rebooting. I get the options power off- which just reboots it after a while, start - which just reboots the phone, restart boot loader- which literally takes me back to the same menu, recovery mode- just reboots and show barcode which shows the barcode at the bottom of the menu.
I've tried downloading the qualcomm driver and trying to get into EDL mode but don't see it on my pc or msmtool, i'm also not even sure if i'm trying to get into EDL mode correctly. I've tried disable Driver signature Enforcement and then redownloading the qualcomm driver but still no luck. I don't know what else I should try. Someone please help me out, i'm pissed this happened just because my phone died, about to have ptsd whenever my phone is at 5% fml.
Also after seeing the 1+ logo and powered by android on the bottom, sometimes I would see like a line of color, which I would assume is text not being rendered all the way, fade out and then the phone shuts down and reboots itself.

Which OOS build are you on? And your device is unlocked or not?

Getting into EDL mode is tricky. Power off device completely. With the device powered off, hold down volume up and volume up at the same time, keep them pressed all the time, and during that time plug into PC (phone all the time powered off). Still hold both of the buttons. By the time you plug into PC, you should be in EDL mode, BUT it only lasts about 10 seconds. I mean you have to click start in this 10 seconds time bracket, other way phone exits EDL itself. After you click start, you can release button, obviously
