HTC One M7 won't turn on or charge

Hi, five days ago I was watching Youtube on my phone but it kept crashing so I closed the app and restarted my phone. It got frozen on the startup screen so I let the battery drain. Once it powered off, I plugged it into the charger but it never took a charge. I have tried USB, HTC charger, car charger, generic charger and power/volume down/up buttons but nothing works. It is not rooted & when I plug it into the PC it downloads the drivers but says "Andriod Device unplugged" and "QHSUSB_DLOAD fail" I have contacted HTC but they say they will reset the phone after diagnosing it. I want to save all the photos I have on there so I don't want to do a factory reset. Any suggestions?:(
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
Forget your pictures, sorry. in QHSUSB_DLOAD mode you can not access these files. There is a fix here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2770684

But will require a little linux knowledge and might not work.

QHSUSB_DLOAD happen when your motherboard is fried or because you have flashed an incompatible firmware. If you did nothing to the phone then its probably hardware defect but it might worth a try before sending your phone.

good luck

my wife gave up her phone, so i can try to fix the phone and able to take some risks now. I am going to setup a linux computer in virtual machine.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wyrethewolf:
My wife's HTC One M7 just shut down on her. She says that it had over 50% battery.

Phone will boot, but immediately goes to a black screen.

Tried the volume - and power button trick. It will boot to the boot loader... but it immediately locks up with the screen lit up.

No charging light when it is plugged in, and because there is no SD card (and my wife is incapable of backing up anything) we are now going to be missing a lot of pictures from our first born.

There is one trick that did allow the phone to charge and to boot up.

Using a piece of tape and a Tylenol (dont judge) I was able to tape the power button down.

It took about 4 hours of the phone booting over and over to drain the battery. After the phone stopped booting we were able to plug the phone in and get it to boot completely up.

The phone ran for about 2 minutes and crashed again... sigh

The Sprint store is not going to be a happy place when I get off work this evening. Her phone is completely bone stock.

no power, no led, no sound when connected to computer

I'm curious if the people who have had success experienced all 3 issues (no power as in won't boot, no led when connected to charger AND no sound when connected to computer). Most who have had success only posted that it worked but not what the symptoms were initially and those who have have only mentioned 1 or 2 of the 3. My one is experiencing all 3 and I've tried everything mentioned with no luck, just wondering if anyone else was in the same boat and what the results were or if anyone had any suggestions.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Moewithhtc:
I experienced all the sympoms at my phone, it basically did nothin, no reaction to anything I tried (pressing combinations for hours ^^).

Customer service wanted to repair it for twice the price of a new one.

So opened it up and noticed that those two cables were touching each oter (the metal parts).

As soon as I separated them everything went back to normal.

I insulated the connectors with a piece of tape so that they cant reconnect.

I hope I'm now done with the problem.

But opening it up is kind of tricky, you do it on your own responsibility =)

Hope it helps someone=)

Best wishes from sweden

EDIT:

I took a picture of the cables but I'm not allowed to post it...

I mean the two shorter cables left of the camera.

I'm having troubles with my One X for some time. It keeps restarting itself in a loop, then it needs to be turned off via the HBOOT and usually remains dead. With some luck I manage to revive it by connecting to USB and pushing vol up/down and power button. Then it can work well for a day, but it always ends up with the restart loop. Can anything be done about it?

My phone won't charge and no LED blinking after battery drain till 0%. I tried power button + volume +/- under bright light (with and without connected with wall charger). But when I connected to PC, I can hear the notification sound. However it still won't turn on. So I let my phone charged for 5 days. You're right, is 5 DAYS (I tried button trick and PC connect everyday). then suddenly my phone gets warm and orange LED came out. Thanks everyone that shared out those tricks. ;)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m4study:
Hi all,

I have a problem with my galaxy nexus. Last week, I tried to install Cyanogenmod. First I downloaded cm-10.1.2-maguro.zip and save in /. After that I wipe my stock ROM. Unfortunately after wiping my zip file also gone. Now the problem is i can enter recovery mode with TWRP 2.6. When I connect my phone with recovery mode, in my PC(Windows 7 64 bits) device manager, MTP USB device is failed. So I can't see the drive letter of my phone in my computer. When I connect without battery, OMPA 4440 driver installation is failed.

Is there a way to install Cyanogenmod in my phone?

PS. After buying galaxy nexus i just use as a normal user.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Khizar:
Adb push ROM/gapps and flash via recovery, if you don't know Google it.. Or fastboot the factory image, if you don't know how read efrants sticky that's in the general section

PS- after "fixing" your phone read and understand how to flash ROMs before trying again
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] m4study:
Thanks Khizar.

I already solved, now I successful installed CM10.1.2. I used adb push romname.zip /sdcard/
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
So, I'm on my second Optimus G. My first one was rooted but then I decided I wanted a new ROM and tried to unlock the bootloader using freegee and I was bricked...now, I'm about to root my second one but I'm scared to unlock it because I don't want to get bricked again. Is there anyway other than freegee for me to unlock my bootloader? Is there anything I could've done wrong that caused it to brick my phone???
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Teeny bins. But you'll need to use them with LGNPST.

FreeGee has a special unlock in it's menu. Open FreeGee hit the menu button. It'll show an sbl unlock and ask for a code that'll be generated.

That's your 2 options.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
I'm pretty sure I didn't do the special unlock last time so is that what could've bricked me?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] engine95:
Possibly. From what ive heard, it's becoming the norm to use the sbl unlock.

autoprime says that FreeGee and teeny bins do the same thing. Just deliver it different ways.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] chrisryn:
Before I get flamed I have searched. I don't have the bad memory chip. Battery is good I have tried different charger and I have tried different and stock Roms. Seems my note charges when it wants and now it locks up to point battery pull is the only fix. Seems to be locking on any thing processor or GPU intensive. Also just recently the back and menu keys won't light up. I have searched but can't find any that have these issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] R1K05@N:
What ROM and kernel are you using? Have you tried a new battery? Do you use something like GSam battery monitor and see the temp of the battery when you do run into any freezes?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] chrisryn:
Actually locked up when trying to reply had to go to PC. I am on a new battery. I have tried stock, clean 5.0, uXylon, currently on the 3.99-RC1 PA. Battery doesn't seem to get hot. I can go two to 3 days with no issue then have 3-4 days where anything from receiving to sending text can lock me up and I have to do a battery pull. I was just curious to see if anyone else has had issues like this. It is mainly random but I can make it do it by opening minecraft PE(my kids play it all the time and just recently had issues). Its not just that app I ruled that out in the beginning. This is about week three of this.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] R1K05@N:
I'm assuming that since you've changed ROMs that clean flashing doesn't work... Honestly, the only time I've run into this issue (awhile back, mind you) was when I decided to experiment with clocking the cpu. Have you tried under-clocking the cpu in case you might have a faulty hardware issue where the cpu might be not able to handle defaults anymore?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] twanskys204:
it happens on all three of those roms?

if so.. id suggest its a hardware problem,,, try going completely stock,, if the problem persist, u will know where to go from there..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] chrisryn:
Ok I have been doing several test over the past couple of days. Each test started with a complete wipe and flash of the new PA Rom. No apps restored through Titanium. I installed apps that I use one at a time with periods of testing between each app install. Yesterday I narrowed it down to two things. Lockups seemed to occur either when using my car(both car charger and wall charger(car has 110 plug), or when using hybrid properties of PA to change DPI. To test even further I did a full wipe and flash haven't used my car to charge. I am at almost 36 hours with out lockup and I have changed DPI. Seems to be an issue with charging in the car which I think is causing overvolting of the battery. I'm going to keep test for a couple of days if I get no lockups I'll charge in the car to test my theory. I'll report back in cause someone else might be having same issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] nutpants:
if you think it may be a charger issue change the charger and test..

using a charger that may be affecting your phone is like playing Russian roulette.

buy a good charger and test again.

[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ch3vr0n:
First let me apologise if this is in the wrong section. I could not decide if this was the best place for it or q a&a. As the title sais. If i flash twrp will it prevent me from receiving ota updates from Google. I have an HTC sensation XE and if i flash a custom recovery i know from past experience that it prevents ota updates. This nexus 7 however is my first "Google" device you could call it and as such i do not know that.

Can any one inform me on this issue. Also if it will an ota cause loss of root on this nexus like it did on my smartphone or will it stay? If it is gone i suppose it will simply be a matter of using chainfires root tool again when it gets updated for it.

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] milestoneiii:
Q&A would be the best place for the post, but I can offer some insight. Any time you flash a custom rom you will forfeit the option of an ota update from your carrier or Google. This doesn't affect your play store apps as they will update when needed. The information that gets sent to your carrier identifies it as being non-official software so only a few custom ROMs that are well maintained will point the ota updates to its own servers. If you wish to receive official ota updates you should perform a nandroid backup of your stock rom to have a restore point for when a new release comes out. Aside from that, you would have to flash everything back to stock (probably stock recovery too) in order to be seen by the carrier as an eligible device.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ch3vr0n:
Who said anything about flashing a custom rom. I know i didn't. Sorry but that reply is no insight at all. I asked if flashing twrp a custom recovery would prevent ota updates like on my phone. Nothing else. I did not say one word about custom recovery.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Oliv3:
If you install a custom recovery like twrp, you wouldn't be able to install an OTA from Google. You need stock recovery for OTAs.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ch3vr0n:
now that's more of an answer i was hoping to get, can some other users confirm this? I suppose i'll lose root aswell but i imagine that would simply be a case of waiting for an updated root tool then. Say i do flash a recovery, does google have a page where you can manually download the update files to flash? But that would probably cause a lose of root as well but the custom recovery would remain intact, correct?
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Username invalid:
This has already been brought up many times e.g.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2404833
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ch3vr0n:
I thought as much. I'll stick with stock recovery then until i need a custom recovery for some specific reason. For now root access is enough. And if an ota comes out and i lose recovery well I'll just wait for chainfire to update his root tool :)
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] derlachendehans:
i received the jss15j -> jsl36c update on my razorg with twrp recovery installed.

after the update stock recovery was back.

you can boot every recovery or kernel image without flashing it using fastboot:

fastboot boot nameofrecovery.img
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] HowardZ:
I think you can have your cake and eat it too.

Instead of "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" to flash the custom recovery, you can "fastboot boot recovery.img".

Every time you want the custom recovery, use fastboot boot command on the pc. This way you can make nandroid backups and flash superSU to root. But, you will not be replacing the stock recovery.

I did this on my HTC phone, when I wanted to remain stock, rooted, yet able to receive OTA updates.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ch3vr0n:
Good to know.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Rirere:
I've taken OTAs using custom recoveries before on any number of devices. If you're not careful you can lose your recovery and have to reflash again, but sometimes you don't even lose that.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] mar_sss:
Well, there might be complications installing an OTA with custom recovery if it comes with a newer bootloader version/radio. Sometimes it works, but there were also reported problems.
[Nexus 7 (2013) General] Ch3vr0n:
Well i just had an ota update to jss15r and lost root as kinda expected. Now ill just have to find out if rerunning the root tool will be enough. Since it is already OEM unlocked i suppose i can simply modify that bat file and remove that line and run it again?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jrjbertram:
Has anyone tried rebuilding Safestrap for the bionic?

Source is here:

https://github.com/Hashcode/android_bootable_recovery

The readme.md points you to the TWRP build thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1943625

I have CM10.1 installed in ~/android/system. I've been building and loading it on my bionic, and that's working fine. Per TWRP instructions, I also rebuilt CWM recovery without error (make clean && make recoveryimage).

Reading through the TWRP instructions, it calls for replacing your bootable/recovery CWM image with the TWRP build tree. Rather than do this, I instead wanted to pull down SafeStrap's git repo into its own dir seperate from the CM10.1 build tree (for my own sanity), and use a symlink to make it look like I had.

I cloned the safestrap repo into ~/android/safestrap/android_bootable_recovery.

I renamed my ~/android/system/bootable/recovery directory (to recovery.orig) and symlink'd so that ~/android/system/bootable/recovery maps to ~/android/safestrap/android_bootable_recovery).

When I try to build (make clean && make recoveryimage), I get a couple of errors right away:

bootable/recovery/Android.mk:18: bootable/recovery/../../external/safestrap/safestrap.mk: No such file or directory

build/core/base_rules.mk:123: *** bootable/recovery: LOCAL_BUILT_MODULE and LOCAL_INSTALLED_MODULE must not be defined by component makefiles. Stop.

There is no ~/android/system/external/safestrap directory for that safestrap.mk. A find command shows that safestrap.mk doesn't exist in either ~/android/system/external, or in the SafeStrap source.

I have been assuming that CM10.1 targa branch was safestrap friendly, but I don't see any of the TWRP switches in any of the BoardConfig.mk files or anywhere else for that matter.

Is there a special CM10.1 branch that includes these TWRP-friendly tweaks, or are they sitting in someone's working copy...? If so, anyone care to share them?

In return, I'll write up a good build summary and perhaps we can get hashofcodes to add it to the readme.md...?

Thanks,

- Josh.
