[Q] Triumph Vibrates is it a Brick or new toy for girl friend?

After an attempt at installing CWM my phone now only vibrates. I followed all the steps ,replace the recovery.img with the new one ,then unhooked from the comp pulled the battery then installed the battery and powered up holding both volume buttons down along with the power button and instead of a short vibration followed by start-up it just vibrates continuous . now the only thing I can access on the phone is the recovery folder via hooking to the computer.I cant access the download feature by holding down volume down plus power ,nothing happens .If I just try tp power up normal it vibrates untill I pull the battery and the same if I power and hold both volume buttons. Please can some one bail me out of this nitemare??

6+ Power Button broken, phone off, how do I get it on?

So Honor 6+ my power button had been kinda stuck for a while and sometimes it would take holding it in for 20-30 seconds, but I always got it on eventually and used apps like 'Volume Power' to use the volume buttons to unlock the screen if the power button was stuck.
The key was basically to try to avoid letting the phone go off, but last weekend I'm on a plane no plug and it happens. I knew it was a matter of time before the power button simply didn't respond at all and that's what has happened. I've been pressing and holding it in hope constantly but nothing.
Phone is only 6 months old so I contact Huawei (in UK) to arrange repair. They offer me a new one but obviously I would rather my own fixed. Here's the killer - as a policy they wipe every phone that comes to their repair centre. I mean are you serious?! They send me detailed instructions on how to back my phone up before sending it out. However, obviously no instructions as to how to get the freaking thing on without the power button to back it up.
I would be hugely appreciative if anyone has any suggestions as to how I can get it on without the button, even just once, and back up tons of vacation snaps and a lifetime worth of contacts. I'll try anything before I give up and send it off to them to get back blank . Thanks!

My phone(PE-TL10) is similar now. Its power button is not working. I think it's broken because I changed the region code (CHN to EU).To switch on when the phone is switched off, I connect to the PC with the data cable while the volume up key is pressed. I use the "titanium backup" application to turn off or reset the phone. I press the volume down button long to open the screen. Disgrace :angel:

Nexus 5 Hard Brick situation

My Nexus 5 was drained off battery and was not taking charging suddenly. I entered the hard reset mode( power+volume down button) and accidently did a "restart bootloader". Since then my phone has been hard bricked! I cannot enter into recovery mode as well( power + volume down button). But I am sure that if I can get the bootloader running somehow, my phone will be back. I am sure it does not have any grave hardware issues as such. But the maintenance (service) center says , they will need to replace the motherboard, which is too costly for me.
Can anyone give me any pointers of how can I get my phone working again?

Have you tried connecting it to a computer and seeing if it gets detected by the computer in device manager? If so, it should still be possible to bring it back.
What exactly happens when you try to power it on? Does the screen turn on at all? Does it vibrate once, as supposed to, when you press the power button? Or is it completely unresponsive? Also, when you plug it in to charge, does a red LED light up where the notification light normally is?
Also, try various combinations of powering up sequences. You want to try the following:
Hold power
Hold power + vol down (this should bring you into bootloader)
Hold power + vol up
Hold power + both volume buttons
Let me know what happens when you try this, and maybe I can help you out!

G Pro 2 ... Wrong Flashing. Pls Help.

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?

Galaxy S6 - Cannot proceed past download mode warning screen

I have a Galaxy S6 with a faulty power button.
I took it to a Samsung Repair Centre.
After "diagnosing" the problem (which I had to pay for), I was told that the faulty power button was due to "liquid damage" (it has never been in water everything else works fine).
They said it would cost £180 to repair and would require they replace the whole motherboard.
I refused as I cannot afford that repair and would rather consult a third party shop or purchase a brand new phone.
Unfortunately, the state I received the phone back in unusable.
Before the phone was sent in, it was at least in a state where I could at least use it (providing I kept it charged and did not power it off).
Now its just stuck in a recovery mode => restart => no command (boot loop), and I cannot select an option from the recovery mode screen because the power button does not work.
I planned to flash the stock firmware to try in order to get it out of this loop, and I can get it to boot to download mode as the volume buttons and home button work fine.
However, now when I'm at the cyan warning screen it prompts me for volume up to continue.
I press volume up and nothing happens. I know that these buttons work for a fact as in recovery mode I can navigate up and down.
Any ideas whats going on? or what I should try next?
Videos of the issue
(Tinfoil theory: Did they purposefully lock down download mode after inspecting it?)

If you have time, continuously keep pressing volume up and power until it gets you into Odin. Best of luck.
We're on slightly different devices, but mine has the same defect. The power button failed overnight, it worked to start the device but afterwards, the power button became stuck in the pressed state and I couldn't lock the device (not mechanically, it is still clicky). The volume down button still worked (I don't have to hold power to force a restart because it's stuck in the pressed state), I wanted to take a look at the knox status in the download mode, it didn't respond to volume up, this means that it's dependent on not having power pressed. I somehow got the restart confirmation to show with the power button, twice, so it's not completely defective. The volume down button cycled through being stuck and non-clicky, working normally, and being stuck while being mostly clicky, like the power button, though it doesn't seem to be stuck in the pressed state. It's likely because I kept pushing Volume Down for hours in a terminal emulator. Today, it takes 5 mins of torturing Volume Down to restart the device. Eventually, it might fail completely. This device seems to be able to ignore volume up / down if those buttons are stuck and work almost completely normally.
