help! phone wont turn on! - HTC EVO 3D

I tried pulling the battery out and volume down + power but it does nothing!

Did you run out of battery? I usually have to charge about ten minutes before it turns back on.

Ye its still not turning on

When you plug it in does the red light come on or stay lit all day long? Could be a bad battery that isn't holding a charge. If you had it plugged in all day and it didn't turn greeen.

I tried to flash a rom and when I came back I noticed my phone wouldn't turn on. It was fine charging the whole day. Now when I plug it in I get the red light for a second then it goes blank.

Nvm I ended to do some crazy random button and pulling my usb and it turned on? o.o

Ok nevermind. It won't turn on again...

Bit of a random 1 but put it on charge for about a minute unplug remove battery replace battery charge for a minute again and repeat this process a few times then unplug hold power and camera or power and volume down. Odd but it worked for me.

I had either the same or a similar issue a few months ago. I think I fixed it by pulling the battery while it was still plugged into the charger. I'm not exactly sure what it was because I was just trying everything I could think of when I got it to work again. Might help, might not, but it might be worth a shot.

This had happened to me a few times when I let the battery drain completely. Leave it plugged in for awhile before starting it.

did your phone flash on and off when plugged in?

Bricked

So, I did S-Off yesterday, flashed the SU binary yesterday. Did NAND backup for good measure. All great and all.
Today, I wake up and phone is off. Realized I forgot to charge it. Plugged into charger, and orange light comes on, turns off for about 2 seconds, turns on again. 10 minutes plugged in, Pune won't turn on. Took out and licked the battery terminals. It has juice.
Noticed that now the light doing quick flash of orange quick flash of green. None of buttons do anything.
Any ideas?
Leave it charge for about 1 hour, then try to boot up. If you have a battery dock use that, if not just plug in and let it sit.
edit.....i just seen another thread where the phone doesnt charge while off, what recovery are you using? I have the twrp (TeamWin Recovery) and it is charging while phone is off.

The team win recovery. I did a crude battery test (licking terminals) and it should have sufficient juice to boot up
Unplug it and turn it on, its not bricked. But it wont turn on as long as its plugged in.

Weird, did turn on, but power button was weird. Had to push it few times. Booted up, shows about 50% battery

that would be my thread.
It was suggested on that thread that I use a different recovery (using CWM at the moment), but I see that the person who is having this same problem is using TeamWin recovery and has the same issue, so I'm guessing that it's not the recovery itself but some other reason.

I think it has something to do with turning off fast boot. I checked it back, and it worked like it did before.

I bricked a 3vo before we had s-off and trust me you would know, when you plug into usb, ac, have a charged battery, or anything you get no indicator lights whatsoever lol glad its all good and working though

Now my phone all of a sudden won't boot into hboot. Yesterday it did but today it hasn't. And I have no system data so it just hangs at the splash.

It's because HTC won't allow charging with the phone off (trickle charge) due to the fact it kills battery cells fast and HTC doesn't like replacing batteries. Keep fastboot on in power menu and you will be able to charge with "phone off"...because it truly isn't off.....

pull battery then put it back in then connect to the stock charger and let it sit for 10-15min then start it up
in the future try not to let it get below 5%, i've heard the 3d has issues initiating a charge on fully drained batteries

Did not work, on the stock charger it just flashes the led light and doesnt charge, I'm still on my 30 day so ill bring it back and say it has a defective battery/charge system, no need to tell them I'm rooted
try plug in your pc and do a
adb reboot-bootloader

If the battery is completely dead the red led will blink for a little bit until it gets a little juice built up and then it will turn solid red. Definitely don't think your bricked. I've had this happen several times on the 3D and the 4G.
Hello guys, I'm experimenting the same issue! It was working like a charm, then I left without simcard in airplane mode, but with wifi on.
When out from wifi coverage, it turned off (maybe because of the battery drain) and can't bring it back to life!
This is just incredible, I can't believe there is no way to wake up it.
I'm trying to charge with its charger, with PC connection and nothing happens: red light for a little while and everything off again after a couple of seconds ... I'm getting nervous :-(
Take the battery out, plug it in wait till the red light goes off, 5 seconds. Now press the camera button... Phone will turn on

Everything was working fine...i know the battery is completely dead but like i said when i plug it in the charger the red light comes on for about 5 seconds then it goes off and wont come on again. He was gonna put a ROM on it and root it but i have to get it flashed to the metro network. He put it on mobilego i guess to backup my info but he had it on other programs, told me i needed it flashed first then gave it back to me.its been on the charger for about 2 hrs now and no charge still
Maybe he bricked it?

Did it boot yet? For me, if the battery dies, I have to pull it out, put it back and let it charge for at least 10 minutes before it starts up again.

Pull battery for a few put back in then charge it on a wall charger while its still off for 30mins...Mobilego is sync software so unless he actually went through the process of going into recovery etc etc then chances are its the battery

I would like to know if you can access recovery with the phone without a battery but with the charger on.
To access the boot menu, make sure the phone is off and press pwr + vol down. If you can access the recovery menu then there is still hope.

press the camera button + power button.
Sounds like battery issues... The phone thinks the battery is dead... Pull the battery out and leave it for about 20 mins or so, throw it back in, don't power it up and plug it in, let it sit for awhile(red led should stay lit) after like 20 mins turn it on

Had the same issue try plugging it into the charger for a couple mins remove the battery replace the battery plug it back in and repeat 6-7 times then hold power and volume buttons. If not leave the battery out for like an hour then try the first step. I know it sounds stupid but it worked for me. Hope it helps.

can't get Note to turn on

Help!
Had my Note a couple of months no problems. This morning I forgot to get it out of my bag to sit on the desk. When I remembered it had got very hot and had a blank screen. I now can't get it to turn on.
I have already:
- let it cool down and taken the battery out and put back.
- Pressed the power button for upto 30 seconds
- Pressed combinations of power+menu+vol up, power+menu for 10 seconds or more
- Tried the above with the SIM card removed
What can I do? Is my phone bricked? There is not sign of response, no vibration etc to indicate the phone is on.
did you try plugging it in? Maybe you fried the battery.

I agree, it may very well have lost its charge. Connect to charger and see if it works again. You may have to replace battery if it happens again.
That happened to me once, let the battery die out completely and couldn't turn it on... make sure you plug it in to the wall charger and not a computer or laptop, you'll be there for days trying to charge it.

For some reason, If my phone is powered down I can not turn it on while it's plugged in. Frickin weird, but who knows. So when my battery died this weekend I had to charge it for about 15 minutes, unplug, turn on, once I saw samsung on screen I plugged back in and was good to go. It just started doing that recently, no idea why. So yea, I would suggest charging that joker for a good 20 minutes, unplug, hold button (should vibrate once or thrice), and see if that helps. Batteries don't like heat and tend to lose a large bit of their capacity when hot (not perm). My laptop works for a good 3-4 hours under heavy use, but when I go to afghan it dropps to half that under comperable load, then back home it works well again. Batteries are a fickle thing.
