Hi
I have a Rooted S-on HTC EVO GSM, Flashed Rom : [ROM] Crypt0's RUU V.1.4 | FAST | STABLE | WWE [24 OCT]
Had the phone for just under a month and after a big night out my battery died. Put phone in charger and left over night. Woke up and phone wouldn't turn on. i have tried everything. also read all the other posts.
I have taken out the battery for 20min and put back in. i have removed SD card and done a battery drop too many times.
When i plug the phone to the charger the light comes on for 2-3 seconds and turns off again.
1)Was just wondering of solutions people have come up with that have worked!?!
2)Also if i send the Phone back for a warranty replacement will i get a replacement considering the phone is rooted and has a custom rom flashed?
3)does the CWR have anything to do with the phone not charging?
Am currently going to try to charge the battery manually by using the wires in one of my cords and attached them to the + & - point on the battery. this worked on my HD2 might just work for my Evo.
more than likely is a bad connection. try a new usb cable and i bet it will solve your problem
CWM 5.0.2.0 won't charge when the phone switchs off.
try plug in to pc and do adb reboot bootloader
My roommate's evo 3d died the same way today.

Hold camera button while turning on, works for me.. dunno why..
Then charge while on..

hey thanks for all your responses. have tired 3 different cables.
1. i bought from ebay
2. i have for my WD HD
3. my HTC cable that came with my phone and I still get the same thing. Wont boot.
I have found that when i have my charger plugged in my phone and do a battery drop and then put it back in the charging light flashes 5-6 times but that the only thing that's different. still doesn't boot.
Holding the camera button doesn't work.
To be honest i cant remember what version of CWM I have but i'm 99% sure it has charged before when asleep. i will check what version i downloaded when i get home.
just a little more information:
I had flashed a new rom the night i went out. Everything was working. making calls, sms and camera but when i flashed my rom i had a wifi error so i flashed a kernel that matches the rom. that's about it. phone battery died that now your up to date.
would still like to know if i could send this back to get a replacement? not too sure how it goes with the whole phone being rooted and a new cooked rom on it? i bought the phone on ebay and i live in Australia so if i was to send the phone back it would take ages. just want to make sure they will replace before i send it off.
however any other solutions would be much appreciated.
OK! So took the SD card and the battery OUT for 30min then put the battery back in with the SD card sill OUT and pressed the volume down button and power on button (i had done this before but didn't seem to work last time)...
Didn't boot up so got frustrated and kept hitting the power button with the volume button still held down. When i let go of the volume down button the phone finally booted up into recovery!! Problem Solved! its charging ATM but i dont understand what the SD card has to do with the phone not booting up? will keep it charged until I get home so I can back up my data and reformat my SD card!
If anyone know about what the the SD card has to do with the phone not booting please let me know pretty interested to find out why that is?
I would also like to know about warranty information considering phone is rooted and has a flashed stock rom. I'm sure people out there have a phone that are rooted and flashed but wont turn on! if the phone doesn't turn on can't HTC just replace the Phone as they have no other way to find out if the phone is rooted and flashed?
I know these are separate questions but if anyone knows the answers, would be much appreciated to find out.
Thanks to all who have responded! and remember if this solution has worked for you let people know!
same thing happened to me the other day I had CWM installed. Install Revolutionary & you should be good

Hi I just recently bought an HTC HD2 and I got it used. I checked out the phone pretty well and it worked fine when I purchased it. I got home and the battery was dying and eventually died before I got a chance to charge it. So I left it on the charger, the LED light came on and was flashing as if it was charging so I went out for a bit. Once I came back I noticed the LED wasn't on anymore so I tried to start up the phone and the phone wouldn't turn on. I took out the battery and put it back in still nothing. I've even tried using a different battery and still have the same results. I talked to T-mobile and they said to try going into boot mode by powering up holding both volume keys and the power button and I cant get it to start up at all. Anyone have any ideas as to what could be wrong?

When battery is charging the LED does not flash. Normally it just lights in orange. Are you sure that the second battery you used was well charged? Take a tester and measure the voltage on the battery pads - it must show some 3.8 volts. You may check also if your battery is charging on some other phone to confirm that it is healthy before to decide that phone is dead.

just shows what tmo customer support know, , , thats a hard reset they've described, not entering bootloader.
Ok so on my lunch break I went to the t-mobile store and told them my problem, for some reason they were able to get my phone to somewhat charge and start up. So its for sure the battery. I have no idea why the secondary battery I used had no effect on the phone. After work I'm going to go find a new battery and hopefully this will solve the problem. I'll keep you guys posted.
winner!

hi Guys
i recently experienced this problem after installing cwm 5.0.xx. i drained the battery down to 0% until it turned itself off. when i plugged in the charger, the red LED came on for like 3 secs and went off. no charging at all... it wont charge even after a battery pull.
any of you experienced the same problem?
You need to get another battery and flash the 4.1.x.x clockwork. Others were experiencing the same things, and my friends Sensation did the same thing and he thought it was dead. You will not be able to charge the phone with the battery in it. Sorry. This is when dock chargers come in really handy.

is there a way to flash previous EVO 3D GSM 4.1.x.x recoveries from rom manager's app?
phone want charge
take battery out and put it back in and hold down volume and then press power and hold both buttons down until it boots into bootloader and when it doe's plug in the charge then scroll down to reboot and if you make it this far what ever you do dont unplug it from the charger and download 4ext recovery i went through this my self and yes i thought my 3d was dead to
Hi,
My Evo 3D was working fine, and then all of a sudden (no physical or moisture damage) it shut off and will not reboot.
Tried battery pull, tried several chargers. The LED goes red for about 2 seconds, then turns off, screen doesn't do anything.
If I unplug the phone, the LED stays red for a few seconds but is incredibly dim, then turns off.
The phone is rooted, but I am not running a custom rom at the moment.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks.

Do youve got a custom recovery?

Yes on my sd, but I can't get into bootloader.. sorry i'm quite new at this.
Same thing happened to mine. By the time I took it to Sprint, the red light wouldn't come on at all. You'll need a replacement.
Hello,
I had the same thing.
You must conncect the phone to pc than go to the dirctory where you have installed adb and try adb reboot boatloder
You will see that the phone waked up.
Thats what i did and works for me.
sorry for my bad englisch
Thanks! I appreciate the help
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
some other help? the same thing happened to me today, but i cant open the mobile folder in pc when i plug it... it is here though
i updated clockwork recovery via rom manager today.. so its related?
edit: i already tryed another batterry and it didnt helped but it seems it is working now again just like that...
you have CWM which does not let charge while off (your battery is probably dead) flash revolutionary recovery...the only stable recovery for the GSM E3D out
i have the exact same problem, i am running clockwork mod (rooted) and with a flat battery the light will only come on for a few secs then drop out again, I did finally get the thing to charge and the best explanation i can give is a bit vague im sorry but i was so frustrated and trying so many things at once, just keep it plugged in , I know the light wont be on but there must be a trickle of a charge, eventualy I was able to boot holding what I remember to be the power and the camera button, slowly it crawled back to life, first just the splash screen (45secs) then the touchkeys lit, then a full boot, I then hit the wifi off button the second the homescreen loaded and very quickly turned the screen off so as to minimise the battery usage as it would have been only just bootable... the orange light remained and after 10 mins or so i was game enough to pop the screen back on (3% charge after 10 mins so be careful) and confirm that all was not lost... the date and time remained in tact..
so you can boot/charge from flat, but only just and only if you stuff about and trick it into life. I know this info has more or less been covered before but I hope it helps somewhat.
*my nokia 5210 stayed charged for more than half a week... grumble grumble
ok,adb reboot boatloder helped me. thanks for sharing. i knew that cwm recovery has this problem but i just thought that i broke my phone....pff...stupid recovery.
Had the same problem. Take battery out, put it back, hold power button and connect charger. A splash screen should appear.
What custom recovery are you running.if its cwm well that may be the culprit I had the same problem if you can get it to boot I advise you to use 4ext recovery that's what I'm using as my custom recovery and it works perfect and I no longer have the issue's that your having you should look into it good luck

Also see if you can boot into Bootloader if you can then you can flash another custom recovery like revolutionary version of cwm that will get you going

"keep it plugged in , I know the light wont be on but there must be a trickle of a charge, eventualy I was able to boot holding what I remember to be the power and the camera button"
This worked!
So I got my Amaze on Friday, rooted and installed Energy Rom on Saturday, and phone just died on me on Sunday.
I was in the middle of playing Scramble with Friends and phone froze up on me. I had to take the batter out to reset it since the power button was not responsive. After I pulled the battery and put it back in, the phone would turn on.
So i read and read and found out people usually bought new batteries since the most likely culprit was a dead battery. I have a friend with the same phone and tried his battery. I saw the HTC Logo come on for a brief second and then that was it, nothing else. Phone died again and did not turn on (under his batter). I recharged my battery in his phone and tried that as well, but no luck.
Any ideas what went wrong and what I can do to fix this?
The phone is completely dead and not turning on. So that means I can't get into bootloader and recovery.
About Phone:
Unlocked Bootloader
TWRP recovery
Faux Kernel
ENERGY Rom
Any incite on this would be great. Thanks in advance!
Plug it in to the wall charger for 30-45min. Unplug and pull battery again. Put battery back in and you should be good...
Don't be alarmed if the orange led light flashes... It's normal when the phone dies. Be happy you're using twrp and not an old recovery that doesn't have charging while off

Thanks, i actually read those threads before i posted. I think there are more threads about that but i tried all options and none seemed to work. I will try plugging it in the wall and pulling battery out but the battery is at a 100% charge right now (i can confirm from a friends phone). However, if its just a glitch, then i will try the wall charger trick.
Thanks.

Once you get it booted, I recommend 4EXT recovery... But that's just my opinion

Thanks - tried the battery solution but unfortunately it didn't work out for me. Phone just refuses to power up.
Assuming its an official brick.
i have a similar problem, well my battery had charged and running fine for several months, so i unplugged the battery to put my sim on it, and plug it back in when it was booting up it froze on the boot logo, so i took off the battery again so i can reboot it
and ever since it wont come back on, wont either go to the bootloader, so i let it charged all night and nothing happen no led blinking or on, so got my friends amaze's battery to test and it would not do anything at either, right now i am waiting for my replacement, but i hate the fact that this had happen to me
oh wow - well i ordered a replacement as well. I really hope it doesn't come down to a software issue and they don't end up covering the device since it has been rooted.
If the phone is completely dead and non-booting, there's no way for T-Mobile to determine if it's rooted or not. Only until it gets back to HTC to be refurbished could they (HTC) find out but at that point it won't matter to anyone anyhow.
And it couldn't possibly be a software issue. There's something physically defective inside the device that caused it to die.
htc amaze 4g refuse to turn on.
hi all, i'm a newbie here, though i have always loved the XDA. I unlocked my bootloader last night, downloaded and reinstalled my fav apps since i didnt do a backup. while i was downloading the XDA app, my fone freezed and eventually went off. When i tried to get it back on, it got stuck on the white htc screen and later went off after some seconds. It has refused to come on till the time of this post. i really need urgent advice.
I was yet to install a recovery software before the tragedy occurred.
Hi guys,
Very confused here!
I was running the latest AOKP Hydrogen rom and one of the latest Siyah kernels...
I recently moved onto the S3, so I was basically prepping my S2 to be sold. What happened was as follows:
I had my S2 connected to my PC to get some data off of it;
I went into the factory reset menu and it froze so I unplugged the USB cable (I assume it was waiting for the SD card to become available.
It displays the "settings is not responding. Would you like to close?" message, but I clicked wait and it seemed to work fine as I'd disconnected the USB cable;
At this point the battery was at about 19%;
I clicked factory reset with wipe SD card;
After a few minutes I check the phone and it's completely blank. I figure it's doing something and can't turn the screen on so I leave it for a few more minutes;
Eventually I grow concerned and assume the phone has crashed, so I hold down the power button to do a hard reset.
After this the phone does not turn on.
It does the following:
If I try to turn it on it displays the SGS2 logo (with the yellow triangle) for a few seconds and then turns off.
If I connect it to the power it displays the loading screen of the battery charge app for a few seconds and then turns off.
Sometimes if I mash the buttons it will flash on and off with a pure white screen until I hold the power button and turn it off.
Any ideas, guys?
My only idea is that something crazy has happened with the battery as I did swap my extended battery with my girlfriend's normal battery last night. As I work in a phone shop, I'll charge up the battery in another phone to make sure it has power.
But I know the battery has power, and the phone it doing exactly the same thing with my old 1650mah battery (which may or may not have power in it).
Any ideas? I was going to be selling it for around £200, so it was gonna really take the load of my shiny, new S3! 0_o

It's not just a specific kernel, more are actually faulty. The whole story is here.

your phone is ok as far as it shows u the s2 logo
you have 2 things to do , try to go to recovery or download mode and formate data/factory reset then flash another rom , btw what kernel u used before your phone go to this situation ? if you were using stable kernel "cm,neak,fluxi,syah stable" so you are safe from hardbrick bug , and the hard brick bug is done only if you have faulty kernel and wibed your data through recovery , and this isn't your situation , so don't be afraid

With a known good batter try hard resetting to download mode 2x in a row.. Hold the button config to get into download mode.. Hold it through two restarts.. Might work.

I've nuked mine a few times with buggy kernels, sounds like a similar situation. I got my device back by flashing CM9 resurrection, then flashing Siyah, and finally from CWM flashing an ICS-based stock ROM.
I'd suggest taking a backup of your efs unless you're selling it with stock.

i am having exactly the same problem.i did a factory reset after flashing siyah kernel (SiyahKernel v3.3.1) on Resurrection remix v2.2.let me know if you guys find any solutions
JIG
try to use a download mode JIG.
I'm not sure if a link will violate xda-rules....
google it
dont worry
if you boot up and are getting the sg2 logo then you have not bricked you phone.
to fix simply download a .tar version of any rom and run odin to pda reinstall if you wanted to you could go the whole hog and reflash a fresh cf-kernal (rooted or stock) and then flash fresh firmware. just remember to get the kernal that originally matches the (ithink) your correct baseband ie xxki4
there should be no worries aslong as you dont pull the plug.
could have had a worse error saying installation incomplete please use kies then you would have to had taken battry out reinserted and hoped the three butn combo for rec. mode worked happened to me awhile back lol
hope i helped you
ps never read your post fully just skimmd the jist of it although the above should be applicable
also try resetting your battry stats in cwm
finally fixed
thanks for the help everyone.i have fixed it now.it seems like the problem was with the updated version of siyah kernel .i managed to put the phone in download mode.(kept the phone on the charger for a while. than, i don't know some how when i tried to go to download mode it did).and flashed siyah kanel v3.2.6.4 via odin
