[HTC Rezound] fernando sor:
That happened to my rezound. I was just charging it and it died.

I have four batteries. Tried them all. Removed sim card. Tried to reboot through adb. Nothing worked.

I reported it and got another phone.

There is elctromagnetic interference that goes on between cell phones and computers. My rezound makes my laptop screen flicker.

If software causes this then it's a first. Even if you brick your phone with a bad radio install the phone will still turn on
[HTC Rezound] Primevyl:
Try removing the memory card next time and then reboot...I have seen this thrice before on Motorola and Samsung...damndest thing

[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I tried it again and again at my desk at work and still nothing. The odd thing is when I got my replacement last night I was getting my accounts setup and decided I wanted to start fresh and completed a factory reset. My phone didn't reboot itself and it began to show the same symptons you described....Blinking orange lights and wouldn't boot on.

I finally got it to come on by removing the battery and plugging the charger in then holding down the power + vol down button to boot into bootloader. I then unplugged the phone from the charger, put my battery in and booted into bootloader and completed the factory reset. That at least got my phone to turn on.

Oddly enough, my GF woke up in the middle of the morning and checked the time. Oddly enough, the replacement phone did the same thing. Unresponsive and blank screen with no charging. I tried the above a few times without factory resetting and was able to get it to power on. SUPER weird bro.

As you can see above, this also happened on a completely stock and locked Rezound. Thank you for your meaningless comments. Re-read the first line in the OP. :p

Thanks for adding your situation in as well Fern. Hard to believe this is a software issue. My OG Incredible was my first smartphone & android phone (S-Off and was brickable) and I never bricked that which is why I was so surprised I was having these issues.

I tried this as well. Working in accounting office I had nothing but time to play with it and nothing. Thanks for the recommendation though!
[HTC Rezound] mike.s:
What charger are you using? The OEM one which came with your original phone? An aftermarket one? Did the new phone come with a new charger?
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I get all my chargers mixed up but used the OEM charger this morning. I only received a phone and backplate for my replacement.

[HTC Rezound] mike.s:
Were you using the same charger when the old phone had problems? Maybe try plugging it into either a different charger or your PC/laptop for charging for the next few days to see if the behavior changes.
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
I haven't been using my OEM charger for quite some time but I am going to use my OEM charger when I am at home and keep an eye on it. Thanks!
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
I had to do a return on my original handset as well. I tried every SIM/SD/backplate combo for an hour at a time on the stock AC charger and my computer, and overnight on wall with none of the items in. Light flickered on when connected but stayed off afterwards.

Was able to power it on a few cycles after it first started having issues by holding buttons down, but it simply froze on the HTC logo either on normal boot or recovery boot. That juice gave out too eventually.

Verizon Rep couldn't get it working with any equipment at the store either; replacement order was placed.

Been running second phone with that same battery pack, with the same ROM, kernel, and cabling an even longer time with no issues.

Now one thing I noted is the sticker (under the battery) on my original handset said it was hardware revision XA. (The last letter under the third bar code) This replacement model is revision B. I wonder if this problem has something to do with the components in each model.
[HTC Rezound] 4ktvs:
Never mind
[HTC Rezound] themusicmonkey:
Happened to me again. I tried to finish a game of Draw Something on low battery. It wouldn't turn on after it went black, and the charge light wouldn't stay on. So I let it sit for am hour or so, but it still wouldn't power on. So, I held the volume down and then power. Worked, but it said the battery was too low and to switch batteries. I ignored it and just restarted it. Apparently it's taking forever to notice the charge status change.

[HTC Rezound] phaedrus43:
Same here. Happened a few times. Two things i noticed: 1) the oem charger has slightly higher voltage than the extra "other" brand (don't remember what brand) i have at work. 2) usb charging has never recovered phone for me (suspect voltage is too low). I recovered each time by pulling batt for a little bit (reminded me of turning off pc and pulling power to kill and capacitance left in mobo) , putting back in batt, and putting it on oem charger for ~ 1 hour. It would then boot. Happened on several roms, ics and gb. IMHO the charging circuit doesn't see state change (voltage delta) correctly if batt fully discharges. Hardware problem, as the os and firmware don't figure in the equation if phone is completely shutdown. Will suck if it ever dies at a crucial time. Other phones i have had would boot almost immediately after plugging in and run off wall plug or usb. This charging ckt is finicky. My $0.02. :)
[HTC Rezound] phaedrus43:
Btw, the charging light would come on for a few secs and shut off while charging in shutdown state.

[HTC Rezound] MrWizzu:
Im kinda in the same boat, on Saturday flashed the ICS new leak, was loading everything up, and when i rebooted it, it went black, wouldnt power on, no charge light went on. Had to order a replacement.

today randomly I tried to power the phone up, and it magically works now.

What do I do when the replacement gets here tomorrow?
[HTC Rezound] themusicmonkey:
Up to you. Return it, clone your old one to it with a Nandroid and donate your old one to a dev, sell the old one... Lots of options. I'd prefer you send it to me though. Just being honest.

[HTC Rezound] f3liC:
This same thing happened to me. Nothing leftfor me to do but too replace it. Sucks because my lights are much more pink than red
[HTC Rezound] Marcismo55:
It really does suck and I feel your pain. Did you both have a low battery when this occurred?
[HTC Rezound] f3liC:
I forgot what happened exactly as this happened a month ago but my wifi broke so i attempted to reboot into recovery to reflash the kernel (dsb's to be exact). At that point the phone only rebooted to the first white htv screen and never went further. Removed the battery cover and everything but it never rebooted normally nor could i access anything. My phone at that point couldn't charge anymore. If i took another battery, the phone would power on but not charge so really like i said theres nothing that could be done but to return my phone.

I was rooted running the gb bamf rom and worked fine for more than 2 weeks. I had it underclocked as well. My new phone also has the same setup and has ran fine for these few weeks as well.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
New day, new issue.

I just activated 3G on my phone. I go to Wireless & Network> Mobile Network>Select Network.

Now, here is the catch.

WHen I click '3G Only', the network goes zero with a little Plus sign. Like the medical shops have.

But when I click 'Automatic' the network returns. BUT I still have a 'E' on top with arrows in both directions blinking.

Now, my question, how do I know if I am on 3G or not. The Speedtest app shows speeds as much as 2G still...

Any ideas??
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Aashrey99:
It does the same for me, but get a 3G signal after 10 seconds or so.

It's probably just trying to search for a decent 3G network, but it shouldn't take too long since you live in Bombay and its a major city.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
Thanx man..the thing is, I just activated it like half an hour back..the Vodafone guys told me it will take at least 4 hours..I just shut the data and am waiting...for a message I might receive..
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mobzter:
i tend to get that sign a couple of times, i usually wait like 20secs, any longer i just head back through towards mobile settings & further and somehow when i back out of settings i somehow get signal. if u have further probs with signal try this app, works wonders - FreshNetwork.

hope it helps!! good luck!!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
Solved!

Had to send the msg ACT 3G to 144. Now blasting through the internet. :)

Hi there,

My roommate owns a Samsung Infuse, and had to send it back after he threw it and it wouldn't turn on. Now he got the replacement infuse last night and he ran it over with his car on our way to the tanners.

My question is, what will AT&T do? Will they replace the second phone since it hasn't even been 24 hours? Or since he damaged it physically, will they not take it back?
[General Topics] votinh:
My suggestion is if you are not the same retardness as your friend, get far away from that person.

Just a matter of time he will throw you out and run you over.
[General Topics] theizzardking:
Right , sounds like your friend is as mentally damaged as his phone is physically damaged, I would suggest he just gets one of the old nokia brick phones if he wants to throw and drive over his handsets, haha
[General Topics] Kromatrix:
Well, stock Infuse is infuriating, so I can't really blame him. But it was on the roof of his car when we pulled out, and when we got back we saw it completely shattered. So he didn't run it over on purpose.

He just has some anger issues :p But he needs his phone, since we go out of town every weekend for work. Currently, he's using an old Palm with a shattered screen. I was hoping somebody with AT&T replacement experience would be able to help us out. We're considering just calling and saying the replacement arrived like that. But we'll see.
[General Topics] DavidSynergy:
Well if you are looking for a replacement I would def say go with the Galaxy Note. It's pretty much an amazing phone/tablet.... thing. I am waiting for it to come to Sprint
[General Topics] Kromatrix:
I do have the Note. But he needs to get through this phone to get a model swap. Now we just have to get AT&T to either model swap his phone!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AnthonyBogucki:
So I've been lurking on the forums for about 6 months and I finally decided to post my problem after not being able to find an answer for it on the forums. So here's my story. My infuse is currently running CM7. I had been running Infused v2.23 and the voodoo lagfix Kernal with it. I was enjoying it a lot when I decided to try out CM7. I had tried it before and decided it wasn't for me and tried to reflash Infused but it's was extremely laggy and the system kept crashing to the point where I couldn't do anything. It then bricked my phone and I had to get a new Infuse from AT&T. So I did this again because I thought it would be different and a change of pace. I'm not a huge fan of CM7 and I would like to go back to Infused but I'm afraid I will brick my phone again. So here's what I was thinking of doing. If you guys could tell me if this would work I would greatly appreciate it. I was thinking of wiping my system and cache and then formating the /system and then flash the voodoo lagfix Kernal. From there I would flash Infused again . I'm sorry if this is a nooby question. I just want some extra opinions before I do it. I use a Mac so I can't use Odin or the ultimate unbrick if something goes wrong. Thank you so much for answering in advance. I really appreciate any help you can give.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] treehugger38294:
bricked?

What do you mean by bricked? Was it stuck at the Samsung logo. You could always use Heilmdall or unbrick. i have noticed that most "bricks" are just bootloops.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
you're right, niral.

most of the "brick" here is software related from corrupt file partition or boot loops due to mismatch file system, etc.

The true bricks are rarer.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] teknhard:
This is news to me, and I was wondering about this (I just assumed the recovery tools were all for PC). Anytime I had to go back to stock with odin, I had to seek out a friend with a PC. Thanks qkster. Learn something new everyday!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
anytime..

here is a direct quote from Adam Outler's 1click page:

"Heimdall One-Click's job is simple; it deploys firmware with one click while keeping the user informed. Heimdall One-Click is an open-source cross-platform(win/linux/mac), dependency installing, easy-to-use, automation tool which can install firmware onto a device in download mode. Heimdall One-Click's operation is very simple from the outside, but the operation is very complex inside. See source code for more information. Heimdall One-Click has several safety features built in which make it the safest method of deploying firmware to any compatible device."
[Samsung Infuse 4G] teknhard:
Funny how you just get comfortable doing something a particular way even when it is totally inconvenient.. Wish I would have known about this before.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
I stumbled upon Adam's Heimdall 1click Sept/Oct last year. It's simplicity is incredible.

1click flash to restore(2 if you need bl's). 1 click kernel. CWM, flash your rom.

no root, no 3e's, no rom manager, etc...

With this tool, idk why ppl don't use it more.
[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
Hi guys,

It's good to be back on xda. Looks like we've got lots of updates regarding ICS ports..

Anyways, I just want to ask where do I mount the "lib" partition on my updater-script? I'm using the official hboot v2.

Long story short-I accidentally deleted ALL of my files(music, vids, images, phone files) recently on my PC. I tested out a ROM, forgot to do NAND backup thinking I just want to reflash my phone as new, so when trying to get back, i also forgot that I don't have any files anymore. (Note to self and anyone: NO mingling on the PC when drunk. :))

So then I need to cook out a new for my own personal pleasure. So thats why I'm asking where to mount the "lib" partition. I'm just going to cook out from an official rom.

Thanks guys..

Edit:

Where do I mount the "lib" partition?

Where'd you disappear man? I thought you were gone for good... Welcome back man!

[HTC Desire S] Skanob:
Thanks man!

I already forgot who the fellow member is also using the "lib" partition when the sense 3 update came out.. really can't remember..

And I think I'm the only one who still has an official rom? :D

Looks like everyone's up for the ICS update.. And me too.. :p
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Here you can find the lib.img, packed as PG88IMG.zip as well as the mount location (partition in question).

But IMHO use a custom ROM it is better than Stock in any way. For example proxuser's Saga3D is pure Stock but without the crap and optimized. Anyway it is up to you. Happy lib flashing :)

Thanks amidabuddha, looks like i haven't seen your post yet when I found it. thanks anyways..
[HTC Desire S] foX2delta:
@Skanob

Can you confirm that by flashing the lib linked by amidabuddha works? I.e. without it flashed your nandroid backup did not work.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
I have informed madmaxx82 about this issue couple of days ago. Now the new version of the 4EXT Recovery supports the separate lib partition of the Stock ROMs so it is restored also if backuped. For more info - there was a discussion about it in the 4EXT Recovery Touch thread...
[HTC Desire S] foX2delta:
@amidabuddha

Thanks, been watching the thread, what I am more asking is; does the lib in the thread you linked work, for those who have old backups not made with the latest recovery. I.e. nandroid restore then lib flash.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
It should work on a Stock backup. Also depending on the version you can always extract the lib.img from the corresponding 2.10.xxx RUU /rom.zip inside/ put it in a PG88IMG.ZIP.zip and flash in hboot
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
I can't confirm it, but if your talking about a backup of a stock rom, it should work flawless, at customs it's a bit harder to tell when you don't know if there also have something been modded (but in common it shouldn't really differ).

The phone should booted normally when running the sticky.bat (On the home screen),there is nothing to worry about just Complete the instructions normally one of the two scripts will fail since the name of the file differ in gingerbread and ics,try this rm /etc/install-recovery.sh and continue the instruction it should work and clockworkmod recovery would stick.

Argh, I seem to have successfully unrooted my Nexus S 9020t and had it rebooted back in, but while it was booting up again I accidentally pressed a button and it told me "error: device not found" twice followed by "<waiting for device>".

Unfortunately my phone has already been rebooted, but it still seems to be waiting for my device. I'm not sure if I can disconnect this device from USB while this is going on, so uh, what do I do?

Edit: Disconnected and reconnected the USB cable on the phone to see what would happen, and it seems to be ok. I'm still stuck on "waiting for device" though. Should I consider restarting the process again?

Edit Edit: Decided to just try to redo the process all over again...seems to have worked!
