let me know your phone was recently unlocked? this is "dead phone after unlock"- known problem after unlock a phone also could be hardware faulty
also check battery voltage also a problem with ipaq series is that not to many tools leaked from HP
most important check battery voltage blinking indicates low battery phone can not start also use a battery from another ipaq by example 6515 they are compatible
I know this phone it's nice
by the way what did you do to reflash there are instructions check link above

this is how to reset
1. Press the power button to turn off the HP iPAQ.
2. Press and hold the Voice Commander button on the left panel of your HP iPAQ and the power button at the same time.
3. Hold the buttons for 2 seconds.
4. A Clean Boot message displays, indicating successful restoration of factory settings on your HP iPAQ.
I can't say exactly because it's not in my hand but try this tutorial to see if phone is software bricked

Hi, i am having a similar issue. I just received a brand-new battery for the HP 614c and no matter how much i charge it (even after the green light turns-on) it switches off seconds after being disconnected from AC saying "low battery voltage detected, switching off within 10 seconds, YES/NO" (while you can't actually press any option), is there anything to do with this problem? I bought this battery cause i thought it was due to the old one but the same thing is happening.
Thank you.

Weird problem with Nexus S...is it dead?

Hello everybody,
recently my brother's Nexus S started having problems. The battery life was awful and 4 days ago the power button stopped working. We were out, so i disabled the lockscreen. That way pressing the volume button would turn the screen on. This "trick" worked quite fine until yesterday, when the phone shut off, I don't know why (maybe the battery went out?). I tried to turn it on again, but there was no sign of life whatsoever. Not even volumeup+power button produced any effect. I then read on this forum and it looked like the motherboard is gone. Thinking that the phone was gone, I searched a way to recover photos and text messages from the phone(always remember to set a periodic backup). After a couple hours of pointless research, I gave up and went to sleep. I turned off the lights and I saw a flash. It was the Nexus S. So I filmed it and uploaded to youtube. Here's the link: http: // youtu.be/oGSVjElAwq0 (remove spaces) You can see the screen blinking a couple times(around 0:07 and 0:27). Maybe the phone is not completely dead and there is a way to recover that files or even save the device. Unfortunately I'm not expert, so I don't know how to proceed. Any help is appreciated. A big thanks in advance.

Hi, please try to answer these questions. Might help solve your problem.
When you plug the phone in, do the capacitive buttons light up?
Does your phone get recognized on your PC when you plug it in via usb?
Are you 100% sure this is not just a battery issue?

Hi, thanks for your time
-No, the buttons do not light up.
-No, the phone does not get recognized by the computer(i tried Windows and Ubuntu)
-I can't exclude a battery problem, but ,even that, it should power up when connected, shouldn't it?

Moto G LTE completely bricked

Hello everyone ,
One month ago i broke my screen and ordered a new one, meanwhile i bricked my phone like hell, it means that i can't go in any recovery mode (with the volume and power buttons). I repaired my screen last week but i still can't have access to any menu. The screen is working (but i only have gray or green colored screen) and it seems that some functions too, like making a print screen (that's weird?!).
I'm posting here to know if someone can explain to me if it's still possible to reflash any roms in my phone via my pc (it stills appear on my pc when i connect it, but the phone seems completely empty when i access to it).
Many thanks for your answers,
Tuti

Sony z5 update. Now phone does not turn on.

Purchased brand new Sony z5 ( E-6633) dual SIM , which was brought back from Dubai by a friend who works out there. Gave it to the mrs for christmas 2017. Great phone worked fine until a week ago when I checked to see if there were any updates available. There were at least 2 possibly 3 that the phone down loaded. These brought the phone up to date with what was available from Sony. I'm afraid I'm not sure of the version but 7.0 rings a bell.
I noticed that when touching the fingerprint scanner the phone said that the hardware was not available also there was no reception dispite standing within spitting distance of mobile phone antenna. I decided to press the power button and reset the phone in the hope to reset everything, no chance, this is where it all went down hill. The phone no longer turns on.
I have tried:
Power button.
Volume up and power button.
Volume down and power button.
Charging phone ( it was at 50% when trouble hit)
With the above button presses the red led was blinking when on charge.
Tried Xperia companion.
Then I tried short press and long press(120 sec) of the off button under SIM card cover. No joy, but what has changed now is no flashing red led when the charger is plugged in.
Also when connecting to a pc the computer does not acknowledge anything being plugged in ie mass storage device detected etc.
Can anyone explain what has happened. And options to fix it.
The phone is not rooted.
I am keen to retreave the photos and contacts etc.
Ideas so far are:
Send back to friend in Dubai which is quite involved, will probably lose photos.
Send to forensic lab to retreave photos etc. Will this damage the phone? Haven't made enquiry yet.
Go to local repair shop to flash/ repair operating system but believe this will erase photos if it works at all
Or
Ask you guys for a solution.
Hope I've given you enough info if there is anything else you need let me know.
Ps the phone had a 2gb sd card in it which was full and phone memory was at around 80 % full.

u12+ black screen after PIN unlock / Device unusable

Hi everyone, I'm throwing this out there because I've run out of ideas about what has just happened to my U12+ (64gb) today.
I woke up and used my phone as normal, caught up on Twitter and the news, the usual apps etc. nothing untoward. The same routine I've had with my phone for the past 18 months of owning it with zero issues. My handset is stock OS (Android 9) and so not rooted or anything like that. Virtually all the apps I use are standard issue from the Play Store, nothing really "out there" and I have BitDefender installed to look after security. Same setup I've had for over a year. The battery was around 35% so I plugged it into my wall charger while I went off to grab some breakfast. When I returned a couple of hours later the light on the handset was green, I unplugged the charger and attempted to unlock it with my fingerprint.
The phone asked for my PIN, no big deal so I entered it. Black screen. Tapped the power button again, it requested my PIN again, I entered and... black screen. Okay, I was a little bit concerned now. I held down the power button so the haptic buzz occurred, held for 10/20/30 seconds, a minute... nothing, no restart. Tap the power button and it asks me for my PIN again and shows yet another black screen. I held down Power + Volume Down but again, nothing and no restart.
I asked someone to call me, the screen came to life and I could take the call but each time I tried to pull down the system tray in order to try and reach Settings to restart it asked me for my PIN, I entered it = black screen. The call was unaffected.
I removed my SIM + microSD card tray = same deal as above.
The phone is clearly responsive in some way and the screen does display to ask for my PIN but I can't get into it in order to reboot it. Extremely worrying.
Does anyone have any advice? At the moment I am faced with the prospect of simply allowing the battery to run out so the phone shuts down naturally but that is going to take the best part of 2 days.
I'm really disappointed because I was planning another 1-2 years use for this handset as I just bought a 1TB microSD card which has been fine in the phone for weeks so I don't think that's the cause. It is also genuine SanDisk.
Any suggestions or advice? Thanks in advance.

Hello, I hope you have made a backup with google backup recently... This does not happen often on android, but sometimes the system could have a problem. You can try this go the bootloader with the power and volume buttons , after recovery.. after apply a wipe data/ factory reset.. is will make a factory reset of your phone except the sd card. You should by fine after that and profit again.

Thanks, I appreciate your reply.
At the moment I am running the battery down until the handset switches off naturally. When it comes back on I will try to launch the phone normally, if that doesn't work I'll run the battery down again and attempt to reach the bootloader.
My photos are backed up to the cloud, I may lose some text messages but I managed to transfer the majority of my 2FA over to another Android device bar one.
At the end of the day if it's a choice between wiping it or a bricked/unusable handset then I don't really have one. What a pain.

At the moment I am running the battery down until the handset switches off naturally <----- why that??? Even on a bootloop or a black screen you can reset it hold the buttons power and the volume, you can go on the bootloader.

The first thing I tried to do was hold down the power button or the power button in tandem with the volume buttons but the handset won't restart. I tried loads of times holding it for different amounts of time and... nothing.
Trust me, I tried.
The only way I can get the device to switch off is by draining the battery. I'm almost at 20% so it shouldn't be too much longer.

Well I already got a black screen after flashing a module magisk.. I have holding the power button and the phone have restart no problem, same thing on bootloop. You need to be sure to hold the button correctly.

Yeah, I'm certain I was holding the buttons correctly. I tried about 20 times using different combinations just to be sure but the device would not restart. The haptic shock buttons are one of my least favourite features of the u12+, it's got to be said.
Anyway, the phone ran out of battery about 15 minutes ago. I left it alone for few minutes and switched it back on. It allowed me back in and the device appears to be fully functional again. I can unlock by thumb print, face or PIN without issue.
Basically, it's fixed. My only concern is I have no idea what caused it or if it will happen again.
Thanks for offering help though, I appreciate it. I'm not sure if this thread can be closed/locked now? I'll look into that.
Cheers.

Yes.. i love the buttons too i never got a problem with this. Great if is fixed! Maybe make a factory reset the next time.
I am wondering if the new flagship have haptic buttons too.. htc will announce it Tuesday.
