hello
are you sure the battery is charged? have you tried the dowload mod (vol down + home + power)? can you listen the boot sound?

the battery was 75% when i was trying to move the app.. Now also i connected the charger to the mobile, but no indication is showing up on the screen

Lol.. Finally its working.. What i have done is- i touched tip of my tounge to the battery terminal.. and inserted the battery.. lol it worked..

Help, my Steak won´t power up

Hello Community,
first of all please excuse for my bad english. I´m trying to explain my problem. Today I wanted to root my Dell and wanted to flash the newest DJ Steve ROM. All startet fine and there were no problems. I have successfully rooted my phone. After that I tried to flash the Clockwork recovery. Also this went successfully. Then I cleared the cache with fastboot. At this point my phone stucked and nothing happened. I removed the batterie, put it back in and now my phone won´t power up. I tried several opportunities I found in the World Wide Web. But nothing helped with my issue.
Somebody had the same problem and can help me out?
Thanks in advance
Did you try factory reset yet?if no!remove battery,put it back,hold the volume up and down button and press the power button(hold it at least 10 seconds)and choose factory reset.goood luck
Use a bit more peanut oil.
I tried all the things that are supposed to do. I tried to factory reset, I tried to get in fastboot modus but nothing happened. The phone didn´t even turn on. It get´s no power.
What do you mean with peanut oil? Are you kidding?
trie with repairtool at

I've just done exactly the same thing, any tips on getting it working?
Tried holding down various combination of buttons to turn it on. Plugged it in to laptop to use qdl tool but nothing being detected on usb.
try keeping it connected to charger for sometime and switch is on , when connected to the charger.
If possible test that the battery is working
I've tried that but will give it another go.
Also tried connected to mains & USB with battery removed but still nothing on screen.
same situation
i sorta have the same situation but my goes to the dell screen but it doesnt go anywhere else the home and menu button lights up continuously and then stops flashing on the menu button and then it reboots what does that mean?
That doesn't sound too bad, do a factory reset with the volume buttons. If you still have no luck use clockwork mod to reflash the rom or go back to stock.
I'm getting a new one tomorrow, mine is toast.
Hey guys, the end of the story in my case was, that I had to sent my Dell to the Dell Support in Hungary. They fixed the problem quikly and today I became my Dell back. But now I´ve got a new problem. It is locked. When I bought it on ebay it was unlocked and after Dell repaired and probably flashed my Dell ich have to purchase an unlock code. Or is there another way to unlock my Dell?

xperia p no charging lights, no usb detect,does not boot (not even the kernel screen

hello everybody,
i used to be active on the x10 forum.
but recently i switched to xperia P.
i unlocked the bootloader,
used fastboot to flash custom boot.img,
fastbooted custom kernel (FreeXperia),
installed cm10.zip with the CWM included in kernel,
everything works except wifi and bluetooth (which i guess is the rom's fault, so i dont really mind)
and then i installed apps from the cm10 file manager.
it detects my 16gb internal memory.
but my titanium backup and some other apps says it cannot access my internal memory, so it doesnt show any apps. (usb is disconnected)
so i thought mayybe some apps dont have access, so i thought i should mount my internal memory (although it already works for my cm10 file manager).
that was a very stupid decision because i used this code from this website which i got after i googled and used it on my terminal emulator.
guess what happened? my device got stuck/hang/frozen.
then when i pressed the power button, it was totally blank, no response and the screen went off.
i tried force shutdown by pressing and holding the volume-up & power button at the same time for a long time, that didnt work either, it had no effect, there was not even a vibration.
and when i charge it, there is no charging light.
it doesnt boot, it doesnt show me the kernel screen, or the CWM screen.
this is worse than a bootloop.
anyone who has previous experience with this?? or has a suggestion on how to repair?
any advice will be much appreciated :crying:

I think you've posted in the wrong forum - should be in Q/A.
Is your phone able to detect in flash mode? (while it is off, hold DOWN volume key and connect USB - check for LED illuminated)
Is your phone able to detect in fastboot mode? (while it is off, hold UP volume key and connect USB - check for LED illuminated PURPLE)

Hi.
1. Have you tried to charge it through the charger, instead of the usb por of PC?
2. If you tried, did you let it charge for at least 30 minutes? (Sometimes the battery drains so much that the phone needs time even to show it´s charging.)
If the battery charges, you should try flashing a Stock Rom through Flashtools.
If it doesn´t, then I can´t say you should do it but if I were in ur position, I would surely open my phone and try to charge this battery somehow. Google a lot to learn how it works, the wires, what is positive and negative and bla bla bla because your biggest problem NOW is not having power to work with the phone.
Hope you have good luck!
=)
Sorry please post your thread at Q&A

i have reason to believe it maybe related to the battery. maybe the battery is still running. how do i physically shut it down? the holding power button and volkume-up button trick doesnt work.

Use this guide to open the phone up and just disconnect the battery for a few minutes. Then try connecting in either fastboot/flash mode. The phone may need to be repartitioned and reflashed.
Same issue
Hi Davin-J
Did you finally solved this problem? I have the same now. And my battery should be good.
...............................
1/2 day later:
It was the battery. I managed to get it back to life as copper62472 told us. The strange thing was, that the Sony charger didn't charge the phone battery; may be because I bricked the phone before with system/data/cache wiped and formatted. I was not even able to restore it with SUS, because the phone was not detected at the USB.
Then I charged the battery outside the phone with a current limited power supply. After putting the charged battery back into the phone, restoring with SUS worked without a hitch.
Help

My xperia p is also in dead condition now. I'm thinking like it's battery is fully drained. It all started with flashing of a custom kernel.
i could take the battery out. i need to charge it by external means. How can i do that? Please help me.

[Q] Galaxy S iii Boot loop not even odin is working

Hello Guys,
I am facing an uncommon issue.. Yesterday i was using my phone normally and suddenly it started to bootlooping. I thought it is a normal boot loop so tried to enter into recovery mod but no luck.:crying::crying::crying:
Then i tried To start odin to flash stock ROM. but after i enter into download mode it asks do you want to continue... Nothing happens when i press up volume key and after few moments phone reboots. At first I thought it was a Volume key issue. But even if i keep it on the confirmation window the phone reboot in sometime..
One more thing when i kept phone for charging it shows charging icon for some time and then it shuts down and shows charging icon again..
If anyone have any solution please help..
Thanks
Sounds like the power button is shorted out, warranty repair required.
What rom are you on? More details needed..

[Q] [HELP!] GT - I9100 bricked

Well I was undervolting and underclocking my i9100 for a few months and it would suffer from freezes and stuff like that nothing much as I would be able to perform a hard reset and reboot with my phone completely working everytime that happens. However today, I just locked my phone after taking a picture and I could not unlock it after that. I pressed the power button and home button but the screen would not turn on. So i just took out the battery and tried booting the phone. It was stuck in a bootloop where the boot animation would just keep on playing. So i force shutdown it and booted it into recovery. I had CWM 6.0.4.6 installed and when i booted into recovery, it gave me the message it cannot mount something and cannot load last kmsg and blah. I took no notice and tried to format cache. During this point, the recovery hanged and i force shutdown my phone again. After which, I could never turn on my phone again. No splash screen no nothing. I think it is bricked. And yea btw my usb port is not working anymore and it can only be used for charging. And i was running cm11 infected. Can you all please help me thanks!
so no recovery nor download mode?
Sadly, no

Yep i cannot even boot into anything no splash screen no nothing pressed the power button for like so long i even removed the battery for 2 hours and popped it back in not working
Try this - take out battery,then press and hold volume down+home+power and put battery back without releasing buttons.This may get you into a download mode where you can flash stock jb via odin.
