Got my jetstream a few days ago and I carrier unlocked it using a code I found on ebay.
Been playing with it for a few days and the battery was depleted.
I have tried to charge the tablet but it just blinks orange and it won't turn on.
I have tried:
-20second power button press with and without ac power
-20second power+vol down combo with and without ac power
-Vol down and then pressing power button
Nothing is working.
Funny enough, when I plug it to my PC, it detects an android phone.
Any ideas?

I believe that you didn't charged with the original charger?
It happend to me when I didn't used the original charger which is stronger then a normal micro usb charger.
The normal micro usb charger doesn't have enough power to really charge the device if its empty.
Only original HTC tablet charger can charge this device properly. You can use Flyer or Jetsream AC charger only. Always use original HTC charger for best result and performance.

The red blinking means that the battery is to low to turn it on... Just leave it charging for a few hours with the original charger. Should solve your problem.

Hi Everyone,
About 20 mins ago, my Touchpad running CM7 Alpha 2 suddenley stopped responding (the touchscreen that is), so i held down the power button to turn it off.
However, it wont turn back on! I have tried Home + Power + Vol Up for more than 30 seconds about 3 times and nothing. I am charging atm and nothing on screen. I have also tried holding the power button for about 10 seconds. Nothing!
Any suggestions?

Home + Power button for around 20 seconds should bring it back to life.

Sounds like your moboot has some problems when you forced shutdown it, try go to the webos recovery statue (the statue when you install CM7 into your TP), connect TP to your PC and reinstall moboot, or the whole CM7 if that doesn't work.
Good luck

Same problem! Did you find a solution yet? I'm trying to figure out how to follow tigerdavid's advice.
Ok follow-up on this - I can't even get the TP to be recognized by my computer. What now?
How long did you leave it plugged in i had to leave mine plugged in for a couple of hours into the wall outlet before it would show the batter charging icon then turned on shortly after that

hi，when your tp is in the off statue，try holding both the power and the volume up botton， and then you can see a usb icon on your screen, that is the webos recovery mode.

When you are in the webos recovery statue, the one I said in the last post (there is a usb icon on the screen), you can connect it to the computer, and neglect windows' response as it cannot recognize it, because it is actually a false warning. Then try following the steps for installing CM7.
had the same problem yesterday. just held power+home til it said to release the buttons.(previously i released as soon as the hp globe came up and it turned back off) hope this helps
When all else fails try this:
Hold power, Volume Down, and Home until the HP logo appears. May take up to 30 seconds or longer. Release all three buttons and the Touchpad should then boot. Worked for me the one and only time I've had to use it.
I charged Touchpad's battery full and turned it off about a month ago. Now I tried to turn it back on, nothing happens.
I plugged in usb charger, button under display started blinking. After 10mins, tried to turn it on, display turned on and it said attach own charger to get best results... blaablaa.. and then turned back off
Now it has been on own charger over an hour, in the beginning button blinked again for a while. Now it's all black and nothing happens. Tried power, pwr+front btn, pwr+vol up, pwr+front btn+vol down. Nothing.
Maybe I just haven't given enough light treatment?? I'm getting worried..
edit: overnight at charger, no change... battery dead? This sucks.

Bummer. I don't think it's good to let a Li-Ion battery fully discharge. I've had bluetooth headsets and older spare laptop batteries die because they were sitting in a drawer for months. It sounds like this is what may have happened to your Touchpad. You should have left it plugged in somewhere!

Yeah, that's what seems to have happened. I just dont digest the idea that it died in 3 to 4 weeks. In standby, yes, but in off state.. if this happened after months, but we are talking only few weeks.
Any idea where to get a spare battery? Ebay show zero results.
Swyped from sgs2
It isn't likely its the battery, probably some kind of internal failure, but even if the battery is stone cold dead you should still be able to plug it in and run it that way.
You can change another microusb cable to re-charge again, b'cas the original cable quality is not good. Led blinking shows that battery is in low capacity, TP will bootup after charging to minimum battery voltage.
HP Back in life..
Got it working...
I let it be a week without any trying. Then plugged it's own charger on and the home started blinking again and after a while battery image came up! So it was in some sort of hang situation and needed to drain the battery again.
I did that also first time but at that time it just stopped blinking home and did nothing after that.
Now few hours later it's turned on and charging, 45%..

Thanks for reporting back on your situation!
I plugged in my razr before I went to bed. I've been using a HTC plug and cable for the last few months no problems. Woke up this morning and battery was at 5% and then the phone died completely soon after. I plugged it in using my original motorola plug and cable. The dual core screen came up and then the battery level said 0% and it looked like it was charging. It died again after about half an hour. Now nothing will get the phone going. I also tried the hard reset (Power and volume down). The phone is unrooted and hadn't been updated to Jellybean yet.
Any ideas what I can try?

Try using the correct charger and charge it for about an hour, thats the first thing I would try. How long is the htc cable you're using because the longer the cable the slower the charge.
I have tried multiple different chargers with no joy. I think the problem is with the connection. When I plug a charger in the white charging light flashes briefly for a second. I checked the connection for dust and it looks clear?
Try Booting into bp tool or hw diag (hold vol up and vol down then press power should see black screen with white text vol down moves cursor vol IP selects) the phone should charge if left in one of these modes (if you can even make it this far without the bat dying that is). if that don't work could try disassembling then charging the battery directly (never tried this its only an idea try at you own risk)
My xt910 razr maxx has suffered exactly the same fate overnight. Worked fine yesterday now it's dead with the only sign of life from the white led when attaching the moto usb charger. Phone wasn't run flat prior to this. Baffling

Yes I have and no button combination produces as much as a glimmer. I've had the back off and checked the battery for charge, it shows 4.3 volts so it's not that. Something has failed catastrophically I fear.
Check the battery's cable that connects to your phone.If that cable was broke,you can just see the battery level but without charging it.

I've read around this a little now and have invested £3 in a Motorola Factory Cable of fleabay which hopefully will resolve the issue. Due to be delivered next week so I'll keep you posted......
Well got the factory cable and tried it holding the vol down button. Nothing. Took the back off the phone and checked the voltage of the battery 2.75v. Removed the battery and tried the factory cable with vol down. Still nothing. Reinstalled battery and left charging off a pc overnight, this morning it had risen to 2.83v. Starting to think that this phone has had it
Cut the end off a micro usb cable, exposed the wires and connected the red and black to the battery terminals then plugged it into the moto wall wart. Left it until fully charged....volt meter read 5.1v, the output of the charger. Disconnected and checked charge, 4.2v out of the battery.
still dead. Nothing. No red moto screen, no recovery nothing. Something else must be amiss. All I get is a brief white led flash when I plug in the standard charger cable.
anyone have any ideas where to go from here other than the skip?!
Just resurrecting this thread in the hope someone has found a solution....
I still have a brick which is unresponsive to two factory cables plugged into my PC with and without the battery in.
Trouble is I've got pictures on there I'd like to recover if possible which causes me to persist with this troublesome device!

I access the boot menu by holding both vol up and down, and pressing the power button (hold for ~2 seconds, and release the power button, while still holding vol +/-. Volume down will only send you to APFastboot. Check out the post, I encountered the same problem. The final method I tried was the winner. Good luck, and let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks for that, I'll certainly give it ago when I get a free hour one evening this week. I am concerned though that the factory cable doesn't work, I was under the impression that the phone should at least respond to its connection in some way - it doesn't even when vol-is depressed when connecting to pc.
The only response I get from the phone is a brief flash of the white led as the usb cable (factory or charging) is connected to it.
That indicates that there isn't any power management remaining on the phone, and the battery is pretty weak. You'll need to get the battery charged up manually. After you flash with the last method I used, you should be able to reconnect the battery and charge the phone all the way up before booting. Sounds like you're having the exact same problem I did.

Really , Really wanted this to work but it doesn't look promising.
Made the USB charge cable as described (white and black twisted together to -ve, red on its own to +ve). Battery removed from phone, usb on charge cable connected to PC.
5 Volts found at the battery connection terminals. Original Moto Data cable connected to phone then PC. White LED flashed on for slightly longer than before then off. No response from phone - nothing on the screen or vibration with or without any combination of Vol- and vol+.
Battery refitted and charge lead attached to terminals as above to charge from PC. Now reading 4V across the terminals charge lead plugged in, 3.84V cable unplugged so presumed charged.
Still no response other than the brief white LED from the phone with either the Data or Factory cables and Vol-(or any other Vol configurations).
Any ideas???
I assume you tried pressing and holding all the buttons, for five or ten seconds, or even a little longer, to try a full reboot. Beyond that, I wish I could help more. I'm slap out of ideas. This was the last step for me (as the solution usually is). The main board might have had it, though I don't have a clue why.

I'm thinking dead mobo too. When it died it did so overnight without provocation - no flashing or tinkering, it was left on the kitchen sideboard and found dead in the morning. oh well I've tried. many thanks for your help:good:
Glad to try and help. I guess it's time to move on to the next device! Let us know if the phone sporadically decides to work, or you figure out a solution!

I am not sure if you already watched this video, its for droid razr maxx, charging a dead battery and works perfectly for droid razr too.
My droid razr was exactly in same condition, white light and no charging, did not power up, completely dead.
I popped open the back case, connected the modified usb cable wires to the positive (Red wire) and negative (black wire) ends of the battery and let it charge (stay connected) for one hour. Then i pressed vol up+ vol down + power button. And my phone switched on.
If only your battery is dead, this should work.

Try charging it with the wall charger and hold the power button. I left mine to charge via usb but when i tried turning it on it hadn't charged and wouldn't even turn on with the usb plugged in. I left it with the wall charger plugged in for few minutes then held the power button every few seconds. It might of ran out of battery completely and has no power to boot up. Hope that works for you.

Just received my ultra gpe last Saturday... Followed the direction to charge for 30mins..It will not boot at all. Tried charging overnight still the same, notice that when I was charging it, no indicator light comes on. I used the sony charger and cable. Tried pressing the off red button, hold power and volume down, still won't boot up.
Could it be DOA?

Hello,
My S6 turned off due to 0% battery this evening so I just plugged it in and let it charge. When I went to bed later, it was showing 97%, I unplugged it and tried to turn it on but it wouldn't. Tried all buttons combination (volume up+home+lock, volume down+home+lock for several sec, all four buttons etc....). When I put it on my wireless charger, the light of the charger turns on but nothing on the phone.
Also no water damage + phone was not hot when unplugged.
Any clue ? Warranty just ended on 27th of Dec
Thanks in advance for your support !
