Hey guys.
I have an interesting problem. My Fuze battery drained a few days ago. After I plugged it back in and booted the phone, there is no light on the screen, keyboard or the button and no charging like shows up on the center circle.
After plugging it into the wall and powering it up, i can hear the phone booting. Once booted i can call the phone from another phone, the phone ring and I can press the talk button and take the call/press end to end it.
I tried doing a (blinded since there is visual light) hard reset (stylus/power button/volume button down/up combo) but unfortunately I have one of the EnergyROMs where the volume button functionality was not working so i dont think .
I also tried plugging the phone into USB to see if i can flash another rom, but the computer does not even recognize a device has been plugged in (even if tried searching from it using device manager)
Searching the posts have not yielded any information. Should I consider this phone dead?

Do a search on the MTTY tool, this might be able to connect & hard reset the device. Keep playing with it, you may get lucky or get some better advice soon ! Good luck
Please I need help, I was using whatapp when my nexus 5 froze. Then I hold the power button and the phone restarted normaly, but when it was showing the google logo it froze again turn off and now It does't respond to anything. I alreadu tried with hoding the power button or holding Volume up+Volume down+power and it didn't respond. Please help me!!I forgot to say that the phone was almost fully charged and wen I connect the phone to my notebook, windows doesn't recognizes the device.
Hold down power button for more than 30 seconds and see whether it boots up?? If not, hold down volume down button+power button together for 15+ seconds and see whether the phones goes to bootloader?
If above things fail, connect it to a wall charger and leave it for an hour or so and try to boot it up. If you still cant, it's probably a hardware failure and it needs repair.

It seems that is a hardware fail then, because I follow those instruction several times, and nothing happens. The phone remains dead.
When you connect it to a wall charger, the front LED become red ?
Well, I've never hard bricked any android (so far), but i think that this is it.
I tried some swap script in init.d folder on my vengeance kernel, but after reboot (or what should be reboot) my xperia tipo didn't boot at all. Hell, it didn't even try lol
So, I tried everything: removing and inserting battery, power and vol+ pressed for reset, fastboot and flash mode on pc with vol+/vol- pressed and connecting USB, but no feedback at all- no vibration, no green or blue led, no ˝device conneced˝ in flashtool log, not even red led when charging with wall charger!
Only thing that still gives me hope is 3 red led flashing when holding power button, indicating very low power level, I suppose. This is the one and only feedback and sign of life from my phone and it's not showing when pressed power button while connected on wall charger or USB.
I have this phone on wall charger for last 3+ days, with no changes in described condition and behaviour, it had 'round 20% battery when gone brick.
I've read tens of threads involving xperia bricks, but they mostly involve removing cable connnecting motherboard and battery in order for chips to lose power and reset as condition for flashtool and stuff, BUT i figure it's for phones which battery can't be pulled out easily- which is not the case with my tipo st 21i
So, guys, PLEASE help me revive my beloved phone, if it is possible.
Be saluted, and help meee
Also, it had:
-gimlo rom v2.1
-vengeance kernel latest version for tipo-tapioca
-and, of course, unlocked bootloader

I decided to try decharging battery completely. I did rubber band trick on bower button untill red led flashing 3 times then pause 1 sec stopped completely. Then I set flashtool for only kernel flashing - excluded everything but kernel - did rubber band trick on Vol- this time and connected with USB. Red led started flashing 1 time every 3 seconds for roughly 10 minutes, with no results. After that flashing stopped again, just like on wall charger. When removing USB and holding power button I can see 3 red flashes consecutively, then 1 sec pause and so on.
My hope is dying slowly, if there is anybody with any idea, please help me.
Be saluted all

If u have an incompatible kernel, the phone won t charge. Flash your ftf with flashtool. then leave on charge.

I would only if I could, but, as I said before, phone won't get into flashmode, nor fastboot. Please, read my previous posts
Tipo's lights indicate fastboot and flashboot but doesn't work
My case is also similar, i managed to flash one rom from my sdcard, which it asked for reboot, when i rebooted the phone , its not even going in CWM, even the sony logo is not appearing.
but when i connect phone in fastboot mode (Vol- button + power button and connect to pc), it green light can be seen. but the issue is, my phone does not detect on pc, even though i as sony pc companion. The same i tried by downloading pda.net drivers but nothing worked.
Please help...!!

And you tried with flashtool on your pc?
And if you have flashtool on pc and flashmode and fastboot drivers installed, and you connect your phone to pc while flashtool is ready for flashing stock rom, open device manager and see if there is any unrecognized driver. Then tell me. Also tell me if you have by accident windows 8 on your pc

I"ve got thesame problem like you bro last time after using a vengeance kernel latest version in my tipo,thesame problem like you told the only way that i can fix my phone that time is to install a ADB driver to my pc because when im using a flashtool it didnt recognize my phone in flash mode and fastboot mode but after installing a adb driver in my pc and im using the flashtool it recognize my phone but it takes time to recognize it for the first time so be patience and after that i flash my firmware and now my phone is working but i never try again to use a vengeance kernel to my phone
Long story short. I finally got brave enough to root my phone. I did it successfully. then I think I killed it . http://forum.xda-developers.com/dro...-droid-razr-m-xt907-183-46-15-t3030852/page58
Then, while trying to get the Verizon wireless hotspot hack to work following these directions, http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr-m/general/guide-faq-how-to-root-boot-unlock-t2869432, I got to step 2 and for some reason the changes wouldn't save. so after doing some searching, I read that another person had tried another superuser app and was able to save their changes. So, I downloaded the superuser app and took off the original super SU. Then I kept getting an error that said, I didn't have root access. So I downloaded the original app. I had before from the play store and proceeded to replace it. The app installed fine and then said that the device needed to be rebooted. I hit okayand the phone turned off.
It never turned back on. Pressing the power button for any length of time will not turn on the device. When I press the power button along with the down volume button and hold them after releasing the Motorola logo comes up and then the phone goes dark again. like it's off. It doesn't have any blinking indicator lights nothing. When it's connected or disconnected from the computer. My PC makes chiming sounds like normal, even though the phone looks like it's completely off.
When I plug it into a charger, it stays completely dark, with no indicator lights like it's off. While its plug-in if I push and hold the power button still nothing. if I push and hold the power button and the volume down button, while it still plugged in,the Motorola logo comes up and then nothing again like it's powered off. The second time I repeat that procedure. The battery indicator comes up showing that it's charging. And just to let you know that the first time when all this happened and I saw the battery indicator it was charged at 80% still, so that's not the problem.
so my question is, did I brick my phone? is it permanently bricked? Is there anything I can do about it? or should I just look for a new one?
thank you for any help you could offer.

Without access to the bootloader it is going to be difficult. I recommend you post your question in the dedicated help forum for your device, in case you can get some help from there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr/help
Good luck!
I have a Lg G Pro 2. Few days back it got bricked by its own( a crazy fact). That time it was showing QHSUSB_BULK. I figured it out as 9006. Took the phone to a local service shop. Today I got it back and found that nothing had happened to the phone, except worse. Now it is not detected by PC, only green light blinks for some time if tried to power on. And then everything is black and cold as death.
I think it have been flashed with wrong ROM. Anybody here can guide me with the test points of Lg G Pro 2 (D838 F350) ? So that I can force it to QHSUSB_BULK ? Or any step by step advice to get it up ?
I am in real need of assistance, and thanks in advance for any sort of help. Best Regards.
I would like to mention that the phone indicator blinks for sometime if I try to power it on, as it does on boot, but nothing else is there. No recognition by PC, no presence in Device Manager. Blinks for sometime, stops, again starts blinking... and this goes on at regular short intervals. The area around the camera gets warm after sometime. Everything loops till I pull off battery.
Now, am I missing something ? Is the problem not as deadly as I am thinking ? Is it soft bricked ?
Hi, I not sure how it got bricked I never brick LG device.
Normally if anything happen we try pull battery out and put it back in, try then to turn the phone on.
Have you try connect to to pc with USB cable, one end of USB connnect to pc and other end connect to the phone. Then try press Power + Volume Up or Power + Volume down, this is to try to get into phone download mode. If you can get into download mode you can flash the kdz file to make it useable again.
Or without the USB cable we want to get to factory reset mode by use hardware method try press:
- Power + Volume Up or Power + Volume down
- If you see LG logo come up release the buttons you press above 1-2 second
- Press again Power + Volume Up or Power + Volume down
- Until it show and ask to use volume up/down button to select choice, say yes
Caution factory reset will delete all data on the phone and reset it as when you bought it new.
- Again it will ask for factory reset, use Volume up/down to choose and select yes for factory reset
turn on the phone and when light is blink press volume up or down button for some time and see if it it is detected as usbhulq?
