sorry for asking but where you bought it from,because i want one thanks
I have bought my device here in Switzerland at Digitec but the first charge is sold out!
You need SonyEricsson LiveWare to run it.
You could download it at the Market.
Installed it already? ;-)

Yes i think so.
I send it back!
I had the same issue today. my fix was
1 place on charge
2 press and hold the power button for 20 seconds
3 enjoy the boot up...
Yes it is in the Manual to hold the Power off for 15 seconds if anything goes wrong. I forgot this when it froze on the bootup screen one afternoon, so I had to let the batttery run out, then charge it, then switch it back on lol.
My one actually has a display death. I turned it off and put it on charge overnight, woke up and turned it on and the screen is all distorted and lines (similar to damaged lcd) and unusable. I have reflashed it etc but no good. Only had for 3 days!
In the 3 days I think it managed to hold a connection for nearly 2 hours...
Meh, Junk. They really failed this one up.

Hi, my phone boots up, but my screen doesn't.
Well it actually semi-work. When i turn it on the screen it show colored dots, and those dots lighten up.
Erlier the screen showed up but was laggy as hell(The display not actually the OS, i can feel it xD).

sounds more or less hardware related, if it is still within warranty, do send it away for assessment...

Watched ur clip. Apart from the screen , I'm hearing the default ring repeatedly. I used to have this ringtone issue everytime i started my phone up. A factory reset and sd card format solved that for me. i agree that screen issue looks hardware related and something that should be covered under your warranty. new digitizer and amoled screen.

Oops mistakenly thanked your post! Lol
Well you could send it off and gamble that they might just fix it even though you have tampered with it.
If I was you I would be tempted to flash back to a stock rom first though.
Yea flash a stock rom via odin, i suppose it gets recognized via USB.
Also use a Jig if you have one.
Just turn the phone off, boot into download mode and hit the volume up rocker after a few seconds. Should work.
I'm on a stock rom, i flashed only a custom kernel..

Can anyone make a video on how to Hard Reset from Recovery?
I know how to, but i can't see, so i need to know the number of button press.
Exemple:
Boot into recovery
2 times volume down->ok->3times volume up->ecc..
Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my english i just came back from school(slept 4h)
@xx1182
My phone died in exactly the same way this morning. Lucky for me Vodafone UK are giving me a replacement tomorrow (I expected them to say I had to send it in for repair, because it's 3 months old).
I will be so angry if it turns out that this phone has inherent build-quality/toughness issues. I haven't mistreated it at all.
Hope you get your problem resolved.

I cant make a video, so i'll just describe.
Wipe Factory reset => 2 clicks down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button
Wipe cache => 3 clicks down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button
Wipe Dalvik => 3 clicks up, home button, 1 click down, home button, 5 clicks up, home button
Then turn off with power button and reboot to download. Flash stock kernel, use usb jig, and go over to the service station.

I tried the different methods or hard reset, Power + Volume buttons, Power + touch screen, still nothing; I let it charge for several hours still nothing, blank screen. The product IS under warranty but I have received it as a gift and don't have the receipt, plus the person who bought it paid by cash and can not obtain the receipt from the store, what can I do , ? Thanks
Am I correct in guessing that you haven't contacted samsung yet? If not, give it a try.

If I get it correctly, you can't obtain the receipt because you received it as a gift. Ok. What about the person who bought it? He/she must have the receipt. Just ask it.

I recently switched from LG G2x to this new HTC Amaze 4G.
I got tired of the bland O/S and decided to make a drastic change over to the O/S that is full of crazy bloatware.
Ok whatever I can deal with it....
In the first day that I bought the phone (2 weeks ago) I decided to check for updates. Surely enough, there were updates for HTC (NOT ANDROID) .... So I decided to update...
I updated the phone and everything seemed fine, seemed as if nothing has changed. A few hours later I started seeing my phone go sluggish, normally when this happens on any Android device I choose to just shut the phone down and turn it back on.
I long press the power button and nothing happens.
WTF?
I short press and it shuts my screen off.
I panic and take my phone back to T-Mobile the next day.
They gave me a new one.
So up until today, I have not updated because of my fear of having to factory reset on my phone.
(Like they did on the first one at the store)
Surely enough, my power button is GONE AGAIN!
WTF HTC!?!?!?!?!
I did backup my phone before updating.......
BUT CAN SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO GET AROUND THIS PROBLEM WITHOUT HAVING TO RESTORE MY PHONE?????
Has anyone else had this problem!???
I am so frikin pissed!
first of all, is your phone completely stock? second, did you try a basic phone restart/battery pull?
Htc amaze doesnt support the long press to power down your phone.

us people are talking about those people whose power button options do not come up. good to know yours come up though.
That happened to me on a few ROMs. I used Extended Controls Widget and made a restart button. You have to remove the battery instead. You can also install NRG's ROM. I never had that anymore.

Hi, have you update to latest rom? I have call the customer service. They say the newest update will fix the power button issue. You have mention your screen has become sluggish after update. Maybe the sluggish make the system abnormal.

You are absolutely wrong about that. Long press is suppose to make a menu come up and ask whether you want to restart, shut down, or go into airplane mode.... Are you telling me that your power button does not do long press???? If so, then you probably are going through the same thing as me.
So this is probably the 3rd thread I've made for this device.
After returning my first Z2, I got this one a few (maybe 4 to 5) days ago and now I'm having issues with it. First time, the screen froze at my lock screen pattern entry; no response whatsoever but the LED light was blinking as I had a notification. I had to hold volume up + power button to soft reset. In the same day (today) I've just had to reset it again for the second time but this time, the power button would not wake the screen! No matter what I clicked, it would not work so I had to press volume up + power again till it vibrated 3 times and reset. I'll be going back to return the phone tomorrow and getting my third Z2! Anyone else having issues or anyone have any ideas as to why it's/what is happening?
Thanks in advance for any responses
EDIT: Are there any built in logs I can have a look at or anything of that sort to determine what went wrong?

Is your phone bone stock at the moment? (locked BL, no root, stock rom, stock kernel)
I had the issue initially - the phone wouldn't wake up a couple of times a day and I'd have to soft reset. But I was rooted with a custom kernel, etc. and learning to use the tools for Sony phones (coming from Samsung phones). But now it's perfectly stable. In my case, I suspect it was a combination of how I was flashing things,etc.
Otherwise, completely stock, i don't recall the phone freezing. Have you done a complete wipe and repair via SUS or PC Companion?

Hey, yeah the phone is pure stock. I've not messed around with the software nor downloaded anything I shouldn't have. I've not done a complete wipe and repair but I'm thinking about factory resetting. Obviously this is not a hardware issue but I don't want to have to keep resetting my phone twice a day because that is stupid. Hopefully it was a one off and I guess I'm not too bothered but I may go in store tomorrow and just see if they will replace it. Silly reason to do so, I know, but I guess I'm within my rights if the phone isn't working properly. What do you think?

I only bought it a few days ago and manufacturer's warranty is 12 months here I think I'll keep it and see if a firmware update helps because it is perfect hardware wise and I won't be happy if they give me a new one and it has gaps etc. Would you happen to know if the new update helps with the camera/overheating issue?

Ah man. In a way I'm glad to see I'm not alone at least! For some reason mine is mostly random but I've kind of noticed it happens after I pull the charger out. Have you tried to go in and exchange it? If it's the camera causing it, it seems easily reproducible.
@shaf46
Hey Shaf, sorry to bother you mate. I just don't understand what is wrong with this phone! My estimated time on with stamina mode is down to 1 day a few hours again. It is a brand new phone I only got it yesterday. Is it the way I am charging it or is it just buggy software? I don't have any apps I don't need and even tap to wake is off. The battery works normally I guess although it is draining a bit fast (5% in 20 minutes while using it) but I don't understand what could be causing this to happen!

It's happened to me once where the phone wouldn't switch on after sleeping, turned on after about 2mins, but only when I received my magnetic charger and started charging with it. Not sure if the magnetic charger is the problem since I only had that problem once and never happened since.
Are you charging it with a magnetic charger?

Did you manage to sort it out? No I'm using the standard charger provided but after charging it last night, the estimation of battery time in stamina mode has come down significantly. The estimation assumes stamina mode is not on but it is turned on in my notification bar. This time yesterday the estimate was at ~5 days.
Well, I maybe should have listened. So I had just flashed a ROM on my 6P, set a few things up, it was charged 98%, I downloaded an app, checked an e-mail, then walked away. Then after 30 minutes I went to the phone to check e-mail, and it was dead. I mean, wouldn't boot in any way complete black screen. Hooked up to computer, nothing. No buttons will boot the device.
So ridiculous....a $500 paper weight. Now I have to find a decent Verizon phone with good development to buy.
Well, had fun for 2 months!
Bye Nexus 6P forums!
OK - I held volume down button and power button for almost 3 minutes and it finally booted. This never happened before. Scary, but if this happens to you take note! :silly:
So my phone is unusable and I have to find a new Verizon phone that has good development. Good luck to me - guess I'll have to sacrifice my unlimited data I've had for many years for a phone with a new carrier so I can root it with good development. I hate Verizon.

Unusable how? You just said it booted.
Is your bootloader unlocked? Can you get into bootloader mode? If so, you could try flashing a factory image.
Don't give up so quickly. Your issues might be related to the ROM or something else you installed.
Jeez... Jump to conclusions much? Can we get more info please?

I almost want to say just send it to me because I could almost guarantee I could help get it booted. If when you plug it in to your computer does the computer recognise it at all? Edl mode? Can you enter bootloader or anything?
Since your 6P is only 2 months old, why not use the warranty?

Thanks guys. I was able to revive it again and flashed a different ROM. It would not boot in any way - plugged into my computer, bootloader mode, nothing. Then it went into a bootloop. Finally I got it to boot and flashed an older ROM after transferring the appropriate vendor image to internal from my computer. I'm nervous it will happen again. I will switch to a new ROM now and hopefully won't see this happen again. Very frustrating evening.

i know this is a old post but do you by any chance remember how you got it to boot again. I am having the same problem and after shutdown i was able to turn it on one time by pressing the power button for 30 sec but now it's dead again and wont turn on after long power button press.

Have you tried volume down and power? Hold it for up to a few minutes...

did that too. But nothing seems to work.It doesn't even get noticed by pc.
Would you recommend a battery swap.
I remember freaking out when that happened to me. My 6P was dead for like 20 minutes. I kept plugging it in, holding power and volume, etc. I got so mad I banged it against something and created a small dent near the power button, which I lived with for the rest of the year until I bought my OP5T.
Hope you were able to fix it. I kept trying and trying to resuscitate it and finally it booted. :good:
