Hello people from this forum, I hope you doing alright and I hope I can find a solution for this.
I have a S6 Active that I really love a lot.
My problem start this weekend, my phone died at night, so I wake up and I plugged in to charge it and well.... I see the led of charging and everything was cool, I disconnected when was at 100%, I got my phone I left home so when I got out my car I drop my phone, so I crack the screen, bad luck when I comeback home I try to recover everything that I have, but the phone wont turn on, it have just a static white led and no response, no detect for my laptop, and obviously I cant see anything on the screen.
No combination on buttons works or something else.
When i try to turn it on a yellow led shows almost for half second then the white static one is on all the time, I don't know how much battery has because the screen, even I can tell if its charging cause don't show me any led.
There's a possibility that I can recover everything on it?
because I really need all my information.
Thank you.
Have you tried booting the device into download mode volume down + home + power?

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
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!
The title is pretty self explanatory. Noticed when i woke up that neither the power, volume or the camera buttons work. They still clicked when pushed but no function beyond that. The phone its self still worked before i pressed the yellow reset button next to the sim card slot. when i pressed the yellow reset button the phone vibrated and turned off, never to come back on. When i plug it into a charger it still has the LED light except its off so i cant just press the power button to turn it back on. When plugged into the computer, then computer recognises that a device has been plugged in (makes the dun-duh! sound) but the phone is not recognised by either the PC companion or Sony EMMA. Same deal with pulling it into a mac. The Sony mac companion program pops up automatically , it says it does not have any device connected, despite it popping up when i plug my phone in...Ive put adb on my computer and tried adb reboot but again it does not recognise the phone while its off. Is there anything i can do to fix this phone or at least turn it back on? I've spent enough on getting this phone prepared as it is so a DIY fix would be great.any help at all would be much appreciated, thanks
I too am having issues while restarting my z3 after switching power key does not works.
It boots only when I connect it too my pc (still dead) and then press the yellow button(try the yellow button before connecting the pc too),but all the hardware keys works perfectly except the power which is just functinal.

No luck unfortunately. When i plug it into the computer the Sony logo pops up and goes to the charging screen. When i press the yellow button just after plugging it in it just restarts and does the same thing. Thanks anyway
That's exactly what happened to my phone last time,managed to get it started after some random trials ( it started using the normal power key after removing it from pc & letting it rest for some time)
Keep me posted if u manage to solve it.

Will do, I've gotten in contact with the sellers and they are happy to inspect the phone for warranty claims to see if I've done anything to it to trigger the breakage, so ill be sending it off tomorrow . You may not be able to answer this but i might as well ask, I got a whole screen replacement for the phone a few months ago as i had dropped it and the screen had smashed etc. The screen replacement all went well. Do you think the re sellers will know/care that the screen has been replaced? Will it impact upon my warranty claim? I don't plan on telling them I've gotten the screen replaced but I'm just worried they'll find out and say my warranty has been voided.
I replaced my phone's speaker from 3rd party,right after that I am having problem to restart the device.
I think Your warranty is probably gone.
Try to flash Ftf file,i didn't cause I don't wanna loose my root.(changing between roms help a bit)
when you open the phone and remove the battery, you can see like some flat wires. those connect all your buttons, screen, loudspeaker and other things to the motherboard. I'd say that the problem is in this flat wires if the buttons do not work. It can be changed but don't try it if you do not have some practical skill since the z3 is not really an easy phone to repair, it's all glued >.<
ps.
this is what i'm talking about, to be clear: http://www.ebay.it/itm/FLAT-FLEX-TA...008493?hash=item2c9efe04ad:g:4QkAAOSwyQtVt5MY
hey,
all the sudden, my S8+ died but I'm not sure if it's bricked or the screen is dead. Please chip in your ideas.
Everything was fine and the screen got black, the phone was still working but the display didn't have anything on it. Top LED was OK.
I tried to restart the device from my memory thinking that it's a system bug and did it.
The phone didn't wake up after that, or maybe it did but I cannot see the screen.
Now, when I hold down the power and vol - key the phone vibrates but no LED or display
if I only hold the power key nothing happens, no led or vibrations.
the phone used to vibrate randomly when untouched with a blinking blue LED. I'm not sure if it still does.
my screen has a crack on top, what I'm thinking is that water got in and did stuff
I need to access my google authorization app, and that is the only reason why I want it to be repaired. But, if it's going to be formatted during the repair work, it just doesn't worth it anymore.

Hi there,
That happened to me too exactly the way it happened with you. I just had to change the display with digitizer that i bought online and now everything is working fine.
Sorry for my bad english. I use google translate.
Hello good day.
I tell you my odyssey.
A month or so ago, scrubbing dishes, my watch got very wet by the bottom of the bottom button. I go into a continuous reboot with an on-screen message that says REBOOTING ... It's as if it got caught. I dried it the best I could and it didn't give problems again. I did all this as quickly as possible so that no sequels were left.
After this mishap for a while if the clock runs out of battery at all and I put it to charge, when it reaches 100% and I remove it from the charging base, when trying to turn it on there is no way. It does not turn on. The only way to turn it on is to put it back on the charging base and press the power button.
Yesterday I put it to charge because it went off completely and when I was carrying a 4% load I turned it on again leaving it on the base. At the time I return and the clock off and the charging light of the base flashing in red ...
I already changed the motherboard and the battery in its day. It is no longer under warranty.
Any idea where to throw? Thank you.
P.S. It has given me to turn off the clock with the 92% battery. Now it doesn't turn on. That is to say that the power button leaving it pressed to exit the shutdown menu if it works but once the same button is turned off to turn it on it will not ...
My problem in a video. In spanish. Sorry.
Currently experiencing the exact same issue with my Gear S3 Frontier. If i keep the top button pressed in, it boots normally and stays there, but if i let go, it acts like its being constantly pressed, and thus, restarts the watch in a loop. Have you ever found a solution to this?

Sounds like you might need to buy and install a new power button connector? They can be ordered online and are quite inexpensive, IIRC. Edit: Yup, still available: https://rounded.com/samsung-gear-s3...ic-sm-r770-volume-flex-cable-gh59-14696a.html
