I went to sleep last night with a Pixel 3 that worked perfectly well and woke up to a Pixel 3 that won't charge or turn on. I've tried two chargers with different USB cables and nothing changed. I'm running stock Android with a locked bootloader. Holding the power button for 20 seconds does nothing and I also get nothing from holding the power button plus volume down.
Did you check it was charging the night before? Try restart the phone when it's plugged in, and see if that enables it; if it does, it probably needs the usb interface replaced. Also wipe out the USB-C port from any dirt or dust. If it's hard to charge or any usb interfacing things don't work, it probably needs the USB-C port replacement. There is also 'wifi charging' but if you don't have access to one already I would say it's a waste of money to get.
Same and for me, doesn't charge and turn on by holding power button. If I'm pluging it to PC there is a sound from Windows of connected device and CODE 10 on device manager for ADB. My PIXEL 3 is from Verzion, and bootlocked...

Hi, All,
I was charging my phone in my car using the original charger cable but the car charger was not OEM. At some point, the phone stopped charging and it was still on. By the time I reached my destination, the battery died out and the phone switched off and hasn't switched back on ever since. I think the charger slot has stopped working.
1. Could that be it? Will a simple charger-slot change fix my phone? Or could it be something serious (motherboard, battery, etc)? I personally think that it could be the charger slot since the battery died out and then the phone switched off and it wasn't abrupt—which would be the case if there was an issue with the motherboard.
2. If it is bad news, is there any way to access my data? I have some important documents and photos in the phone that I don't want to lose so any way to extract the data from the phone would be useful.
I tried holding vol up + power button, tried connecting the USB cable to PC and switch it on, tried leaving it on charge for 4 - 5 hours and tried switching on, but all in vain. However, if I connect it to the charger and leave it on, the camera part will get heated up. The LED light indicating that the phone is charging will not light up though.
Do let me know if you guys have seen a similar issue. TIA!

I forgot to charge my Gear S2 last night so it made it about 37 hours'ish and now after completely dying my charger does not recognize the S2 when being placed on there. No lights on the charger turn on, not able to hold power button to turn watch on... kindof at a loss as to what i can do...
in case this happens to you... try setting the watch down on the charger and if the light turns red holding the power button until it comes on then hit and hold the power button again to turn it off. It made my charger stay on for some reason.
Are you trying with the original USB cable? I once tried with a generic one and didn't work, then I tried a lg USB cable, and didn't work either..
Maybe is just that
the problem is just that, the phone boot just when pugged to charger, original or any charger, or PC USB, or just anything that give current via he's own osb port
power button doesn't work anymore (from near 3 years I need to go out with a emergency charger and a short usb cable)
this problems starts near 3 years ago, some day the phone goes crazy and boot loop several times, from just LG logo to scanning multimedia files, or start perfectly, but shutdown any time, or just work good several days (and with the power button working)
I was thing on humidity or moisture, but the mainboard seems to be ok, one day I was soldering two wires, and when de power button was working putting together the two wires acts like power button, but when power button doesn't work the wires the same
some day recently I was cut away the power button flex, test it and it's broken, but the two wires doesn't work
the very problem is that now the shutdown is most noticeable, no matters if I put just the original stock battery or other original, those batteries are ok, old but ok, charged and the voltage are ok
there is some with expertise to guide me to find how to resolve this?
So it was on last night and when i woke up this morning it was dead,but i powered it on to see what time it was, then it turned off again right after, i figured dead battery no big deal. So i go to charge it and go back 15 mins later to turn it on as i'm expecting a text message and it won't turn on just a red light flashed once. i tried 4 different outlets checked the connector for lint or dirt nothing, its been charging? for 45mins it should be almost done but it wont turn on. i tried pwr+vol up, pwr +vol down nothing. Sucks cause i don't have any other USB type-c chargers or cables and everyone elses phone is Micro usb and my other family have ****inn iphones. Also it's new years tomorrow so no stores are open. Sigh any ideas?
Had the same thing happen. For some reason once the phone is completely dead the oem charger does not charge the phone. I had to use a USB a to c cable I bought at Walmart (for data transfer) and plug it into my oem nexus 6 wall charger base to get it charging and turn on...

Mine Pixel 2 has just died today. Had 30%+ of battery. I was using gmaps and suddenly found screen switched off. Tried to turn it on but since that moment, no signs of life at all.
I had similar problem. Morning no alarm and Pixel 2 totally dead. Now I have new piece.
my factory charging cable quit charging my phone as well
Hi there.
So i tried to connect my Y700 to my Dell U4320Q to see how the PC mode will look like. All i got is a replica of the display on my big screen, and then it kinda turned off.
Now, it won't turn on again... Pressing the Power button for a very long time doesn't make it turn on again. No reaction at all, not even a vibration.
I maybe fried it with the Power Delivery being too strong?
I plugged the original charger, with an USB power meter, and it did charge with a decent speed. So the power section seems to be alive still.
Not sure what happened, but it's scary. Brand new expensive tablet and dead already just by plugging an external display on the USB C port?
Anyone knows how to eventually factory reset it? Or enter recovery mode?
i'm updating my own thread with an own answer.
So as said before, i plugged my Y700 to my Dell U4320Q using USB-C and this has killed the tablet.
Actually, it did not kill it, but it hanged in such a way that it was impossible to reboot it. Even long press on Power button did not help.
So i hoped that it indeed just hanged (it was still responding to adb commands, but since USB debug was not active, i couldn't do anything with it, not even an adb reboot), so i decided to try to deplete the battery by connecting it to another USB-C display that doesn't have battery or power supply (taking power only from the connected device).
This indeed depleted the battery in two days. Then when i tried to turn it on with power button, it did vibrate and show battery empty logo on screen! First sign of life since i connected to my main display.
So i just charged the battery again, and boom, tablet is back to life!
So happy now
