I was listening to music on my x10i, rooted, 2.1 nordic yesterday and for no reason it turned off. I cant turn it back on, holding the power button just makes the little led flash red. Plug into power supply, led flashed red. Hold power button and back button, flash red!
Any ideas?
is it fully brick???
red flashing = battery error
Maybe you drained it to the point that it can't do anything anymore. This phone needs to boot to charge. See if you can charge it in a display phone if the store will let you.
thanks, thats a good idea, i was going to buy a charger from ebay that takes the battery directly
try to take out the micro sd card. maybe its corrupted.
Just leave it to charge for a while and it should recover after few minutes...
bro... maybe bad motherboard!! same happened to me... battery wont charge.. m 100% sure!! ur board is bad contact SE... no other option!! its the worst fault in X10
In my casse when I overdraft my battery it toke almost 30minutes to get it back to work

Hi there,
I have a special question to my G4 witch i do not get in operation anymore: The Problem is, that the device does not turn on, independent any keys. Either the ON-Button, Soft-Reset, Hard-Reset i do not get any of the "normal" screens. The display does not light.
Additional, the red power-charge-LED does not light when i plug in the USB-poer-supply. The same, if i disassemble the battery and plug the G4 to the power-supply...
The device has not been used for a couple of months. The last action a Upgrade to WM6.5 that worked definitively fine for a while.
Has anybody an idea? Or happend before?
Thanks in advance
Ernie
i think it`s easy
hey .. i doubt you have a problem with your g4 phone, i think you have a problem with the battery. since you left the batter inside the phone for alot of months and you didn`t use it, i think the battery is super dead, so dead, that the g4 cant power off and go to charge mode. 1 : you could try letting it charge more, like .. 1 hr plugged in , orrr , you could find an universal charger, which charges the battery by touching it`s + and - with it`s pins and putting electricity in it. (sorry for the bad explanation but i`m from romania). I think one of them two should work, if you know some other friend who has a working g4 just try with his battery. Good luck ! ^_^
Thanks for your reply.
But it happens without (!) the battery: If disassemble the battery and connect afterwards the power cable, the red LED does not flash, and no key has a function. As Soft-Reset "switch" and Hard-Reset (2-button on the left plus Soft-Reset-Switch)
First i mentioned the same as you thought...
Has anybody an idea what can be done here?
Thanks in advance.

I'm encountering this same problem. I let the device charge over night with no luck. It will not power on at all. The battery was working fine last week. its completely dead
My Universal turn on the red LED for a seconds and after that do not charge and do not turn on. Have you find any solutions?
Thanks
exactly the same problem here on touch 3g
i got my touch 3g in Jan 2009 in Shanghai,China. Now i'm in singapore.... it's bricked, i didn't do anything wrong, it's not dropped on the ground or into the water, yesterday it was fine, but this morning i just found that it's power off. plugging in the power cable , and i won't see the orange power led. it's completely dead, soft reset and hard reset can not be initiated, because it refuses to power on.
i'm going to htc care center at harbourFront next weekend ...

You’re in the wrong section this is the Wizard forum.
I use a universal charger. Its one which takes the battery not one which plugs into the phone ...
whenever I let my phone run flat I leave the battery in the charger for a couple of hours then put it back in the phone and connect the phone charger. Once there are enough electrons whizzing around in the battery there's enough power to drive the IC that manages the charging in the phone ...
if the battery is too flat it won't even open the gates for you ...
okay so i have a hd2 with 2.08 hspl and everything as of yesterday after my 2.12 radio flash everything worked fin. but when i started charging it i noticed it didnt show the usb connection when it charges. well it had 9% left and i fell asleep i wont up and it was completely off. im pretty sure the radio disabled the charging ability or whatever when i took my dad to the airport at 4 i looked up a little bit and saw i should take the battery out for awhile then try? i did that and i got it to bootloader with USB but it wont sync. i then reset it and tried to turn it on it started to turn on then died i think the battery is dead cuz of this whole radio thing
so i guess my question is how do i fix it? do i need to install a Rilphone.dll? or go back to my old radio? if so how do i go back to my old radio. then again i could be all wrong
***update i got it into bootloader with usb again im going to leave it for awhile and see if i can get a charge***
****update 2, i guess i can charge it enough in bootloader mode, so how do i enable charging again so i dont have to charge in only bootloader mode?****
No need to go to boot loader to charge. Just keep the phone switched off and charge your phone. The LED will come up in a few seconds. Leave it to charge full till it becomes green as usual. Try putting your device in boot loader & flash YOUR REGION STOCK ROM. Then flash any custom ROM if you wish.
you sure? cuz it never charged before when it was plugged in normally, it just went till it died
take the battery out, plug in USB, then re apply battery. It should shortly begin to charge without trying to turn itself on (which it does if you simply plug usb in whilst battery is in.)
I doubt it was the radio, i'd be more inclined to think you
1 - bent a battery pin
or
2 - faulty hardware.
wait bent battery pin that would make alot more sense.
*checking pins*
it seems as if the middle one (ground) is bent up a little i pushed it down so that it was touching the battery and it worked. im just curious if it broke completely is it possible to replace these?

Looks like it would be a crazy tight solder job if it did, probably just as easy to get the whole device replaced.
My Easy Fix
So my phone HD2 will not turn on or charge when plugged it in. I was freaking out. 2 days without, until i found a thread that told me to take out the battery. Hold down and press the Red power button for 30 seconds. While holding it down put battery back in.. careful you are connecting battery pins to battery when doing this. Then plug back into the wall power not PC. Walah like magic MY once bricked T-Mobile turned back on. ( worked after the 6th try)
Best of Luck.

Thanks for sharing this info. this trick worked for me too.
The phone went past the boot screen n showed me windows mobile logo.
It did restart again once or twice. Then I kept the power button *pressed* continuosly till the phone booted up completely
sorta helped

I received a HD2 in a trade, and it was set up for android. I couldnt charge it, and when I turned it off.. it would just restart by itself... so i thought maybe if I put WM6.5 back on it, it would fix it, nope. This trick DID fix my charging issue, but unfortunately, NOT its restarting when I turn it off. So.. anyone have thoughts on that? lol
Hi,
Yesterday I was lying on my bed, when suddenly my X10 Mini Pro died . I was just installing some apps, and then it froze for about 3 minutes. Then it shutted down. At first I tried to charge it, but it didn't do anything. The screen didn't even turn on. Then I ran SEUS, didn't work, used the flashtool, didn't work, because it didn't recognize the phone when I plug in the charger while holding the back button...
When I plug my charger in my phone the LED flashes a red light though (like when your battery is low), and after a few minutes the red light stops. When I try to power him up, the red light flashes faster (like it's battery is dead). So I thinkl it's not entirely dead.
Maybe this is a battery issue or something? Maybe my charger broke? Something else?
Please help me, I'm begging you. I can't afford a new phone, I'm broke as hell
heya, from the info you've given I don't reckon it's something obvious that caused this?
gordon's gate should force your pc to recognize your phone so it'll work with SEUS.
just install it, then open it so it says usb id's have been resetted, and connect your phone holding back button.
hope that helps you solve it
No, does not work . Really big thanks anyway.
I ordered a new battery, maybe that will solve the problem. Or is it possible my charging cable is defect or something?

If when your phone crashed battery was still good, then it is your battery. If it just went off because your battery was empty then it can be your charging cable but I doubt it.
judging from the symptoms, i think battery is the most plausible cause as well.
sorry i couldn't help tho

Battery was good when he crashed... It wasn't empty also. I'll let you know if the new battery works once I have it.
Nope, does not work..
Now I'm stuck with an extra 2430 mAh battery and a dead X10 Mini Pro. Hooray. If someone thinks he can help, please reply.
Oh wow, it suddenly worked! I'm a happy person again!
I've had this phone for 2 months.
I started up dead space, had wifi on and it was downloading the game data.
left the room to clean the kitchen (maybe 20 mins) when I came back the phone wouldn't unlock
pulled the battery and turned it on, phone booted but wouldn't get past the initial samsung logo.
after that it wouldn't turn on at all
I pulled the battery, left it for a few mins, put it back in, tried booting up, tried getting to recovery, download mode, tried removing sim and sd card
is this an issue other people have had? am i screwed? i left it plugged in w/ the battery in on the off chance it didnt have enough charge or something. but the battery logo isn't coming up
Try charging phone for an hour or so.
Question: when you connect your phone to the pc, any reaction on the pc side? Is Odin recognizing the phone?
If you can't get into download mode by holding down home+volume down+ power at the same time, you can buy a usb jig (or make it your self it's not that hard)
Just google for usb jig.
Other than that. I have no idea.
Good luck to you dude.
Sent from SGS II Running CriskeloRom V34.
no reaction anywhere. the battery animation isn't displayed when plugging in either.
can't get into download mode to use odin. i ordered a usb jig (figured it would be good to have it anyways)
the phone is currently plugged in, the battery feels slightly warm but it still wont turn on. i'm hoping it is a faulty battery.
my plan is to go to a phone shop tomorrow and ask to borrow a battery just to see if it will turn on, if not ill try a repair shop. if not that, then i'll start complaining about my warranty to the international seller i got it from on amazon.
Sorry to hear that.
Good luck.
hi if u have a tester test the voltage on the battery -/+ for dc voltage if it's zero u need to shock the battery.
i brought it in to bell and asked to use a spare battery. the girl took it right out of her phone and put it in mine, tried to turn it on, nothing. no download, no recovery, no reaction whatsoever except for a slight warming around where the camera lens is if you hold the power button for a long time.
looks like it's fried. i really hope I can get a return with the amazon seller. i've only had it 2 1/2 months
hey guys i have an quesion, yesterday my phone stopped working
but odly enough there comes power trought the phone when connect usb i get power on the battery part acording to the multimeter also what i notoced today was that the led at 1st started to blink red while device is off, and then it started to change to solid red and in 15 mins it was green, but phone won't turn on but there is reaction in the phone, i can't spot it on the pc either but i do see that the phone ask power by the hand of the solar charger i have the led turns on when a device ask power, but even if i pull out the battery the phone still ask power witch shouldnt possible when the battery is removed right ?

Take it to a repair centre, you have a hardware fault.
