I know these questions never usually get anywhere but my phone is unresponsive. Whether I try to turn it on, plug it in, connect it to the computer, or try a hard reset with buttons, I get nothing.
Last ditch effort here but any ideas?
sorry to hear that
what happen?
try volume down with power on see if that work
I think I've tried every possible button combo to turn it on and nothing.
I woke up this morning to it like this.
I took it to Verizon and they said I could get a replacement but not for 5 days, and I kinda need it for travelling tonight.

Wow, 5 days? I had a problem with my speaker and they sent me one overnight. Try calling customer service and tell them your situation, maybe they will do you good. Just a thought. Good Luck

I don't either, and actually I bought mine on New Egg and the company they deal with has declared bankruptcy so they said my only resource to get it fixed was through Verizon. So I called them and it fell under the HTC 1 year warranty so they took care of it right away. Sounds like yours is more than likely hardware failure so it should be the same situation. Heck I even sent it in with S-OFF still and it went ok, I did run the RUU to remove root and re-set everything tho. But if yours wont even turn on you have nothing to worry about
Your phone *will* always turn on with using a combo of power and volume up. Its just a matter of actually holding the volume up so that it is recognized.
How long it stays on after that is up in the air.

My Atrix 4g was working fine and then I set it off the the side while I worked on some homework and when I came back and tried to unlock it, nothing happened, the screen remained black although I could flick the volume up and down switch and get a vibration and a sound, it seemed to me like the device was still on and working just the screen was black. I pulled the battery and when I put it back the phone refused to boot and showed a red LED. I waited 5 min and pulled the battery again and this time the phone booted up perfectly and is still working right now, is this something I should be worried about? Should I bring it back to the store for an exchange?
Definitely bring it back for an exchange

Do you happen to know the exchange policy at AT&T? I have no warranty, but I've only had it for a week or so.
Also how do you know its just not a small software glitch or something that is insignificant and was a one time thing? Or do you think I should bring it back just in case.

If you bought it from AT&T then you have 30 days to return/exchange it. Tell them there is a software issue where it forces your phone to turn off. To be safe, you could call their corporate customer service at "611" and tell them the situation and they will note your account about the situation that way the reps in the store cannot turn you away.

What if I bought it from RadioShack though? They had a sale where it was only $150.. xD
Btw mine is rooted and everything, how do they check for root anyways? And in order for me to exchange it I'm guessing I have to factory reset, would that undo the root?

Radioshack should have a similar policy. You should be able to check it online.
No, a restore will NOT remove root. Which root method did you use? I believe SOC and aRoot both have unroot options. I had to return my first Atrix as well and I used Root Explorer to uninstall SU before I ran the unroot script to make sure it would be removed.
I returned my bricked atrix to radio crap and they swapped no problem

I used aRoot, out of curiosity what was wrong with your first Atrix?
I did a quick google and no one seemed to have experienced the problem that I had with the blank screen, although there seem to be no other issues and its snappy as usual. If I decided just to keep this Atrix and not go through the hassle of returning and then downloading everything and setting my theme back up and a million other personalization things I did, do you think I would regret it later?
Oh and do you think it would have anything to do with the fact I dropped my phone? I was just chilling in class and it fell out of my pocket. Lol it was like a 2 foot drop onto tile face first, although there are no visible damages aside from a scratch in the corner thats minuscule and took me like 5 min to find.
Also, the issue didn't occur until like a couple hours after I dropped it.

I brought mine back because of software issues like the battery monitor displaying the phone as charging even though it was unplugged, screen brightness was changing even though I had the auto turned off, little things that I haven't experienced on my second phone.
With yours, if you feel comfortable enough to hold onto it for awhile longer I don't see any harm in that. Radioshack gives you 30 days. There have been random reboot issues on some of the Atrix's so it might not be anything serious. I've had a couple issues with the screen freezing on me, which what could have happened on yours.

Well mine didn't randomly reboot, and the screen didn't freeze, it just blanked for awhile, I don't think its serious enough to constitute my phone as a "lemon". I'll probably end up holding on to it and seeing if anything else happens and if not then just keep it. Thanks for all the help though! :]
And if anyone else has experienced this issue or something similar, it would be awesome if you could share your experience.
For the last two days my phone has been anything off at random... nothing has been changed... I'm on the cm9 nightly from the two days ago... this is the thing tho... If I gentely tap the phone it will shut off or shake it... so I figured maybe after time the batter is lose... but it also is turning off if it sits completely still...unless its playing music. It has not turned off since Round 8 ad I have just had it playing music this full time ...any ideas??
I already did a full wipe and re install and when I get home I'm going to Oden back to stock and redo everything.

My only suggestion at this point is odin back to stock 2.1.
Unfortunately this sounds like symptoms of hardware failure. I had a phone (cliq) which would do the exact thing as you described...the phone would vibrate shut off and reboot unexpectedly. I would open the physical keyboard and it would also shut off...this is totally hardware related from my understanding. But that is the worst case scenario.
Hopefully it is a software related issue in your case. Not much else i can say.

Overclocked? Voltages changed at all from default? If you have anything set in voltage control or setcpu, get rid of them and try it. You could also try booting into recovery and see if you can reproduce the problem. That should also help determine if it is software or hardware related.
If the phone is plugged in it does not seem to reboot. i have not had time to mess with it i will check it out this weekend. Weird because it only seems to be doing this at work? I have not had it restart on me at all while at home.
Also if i have the music playing it will not turn off. This weekend im going to oden back to stock and see how it goes. otherwise gonna try to deal with it long enough till the gs3 comes out, ha.

thanks for the response. and I found my problem already too, I had a bad power ribbon inside the phone that was torn.
I was in the bathroom yesterday and my Evo 4g LTE started buzzing a lot. I had no idea what was going on, and the phone was just flashing screens. It was going between my homescreen, and a long-press on the home button(that shows all the screens together). At this point, I figured it was a hardware problem, and I still think it is. The problem is, my phone is unlocked, and it's running CM10 on it. I have no idea what I should do. It always has it's case on(otterbox), and I also have only dropped it a few times in the last month, from only about 2 feet high max. The last time I dropped it was a few nights ago. Once again, it just randomly started doing this. I tried flashing CM10 again, and it didn't help, it still acts like i'm pressing the home button non-stop, even in TWRP. I really need ALL the help I can get. I cannot afford to get a new phone.
Did you flash the stock rom, that would probably let you know if it a custom rom causing the problem? If it still does it, you might need to take it in to get looked at.
Take the case off and see what happens.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
I took off the case, did not fix it. I flashed stock rom and it did not fix it. Where do I need to go to get it looked at? Sprint i'm assuming?
Yeah, make sure it's a corporate store that does repairs, don't go to some third party store, they normally aren't any help.

Okay, sorry it took me so long to reply. The phone might go a day and do the homescreen thing, but the next day it might work. It hasn't done it since about 2 pm yesterday and now it started up again. I also noticed that when I press on the right side of the screen, it makes a clicking noise. Can I get it repaired even though it's s-off, unlocked bootloader, and has a custom rom on it?
So this is probably the 3rd thread I've made for this device.
After returning my first Z2, I got this one a few (maybe 4 to 5) days ago and now I'm having issues with it. First time, the screen froze at my lock screen pattern entry; no response whatsoever but the LED light was blinking as I had a notification. I had to hold volume up + power button to soft reset. In the same day (today) I've just had to reset it again for the second time but this time, the power button would not wake the screen! No matter what I clicked, it would not work so I had to press volume up + power again till it vibrated 3 times and reset. I'll be going back to return the phone tomorrow and getting my third Z2! Anyone else having issues or anyone have any ideas as to why it's/what is happening?
Thanks in advance for any responses
EDIT: Are there any built in logs I can have a look at or anything of that sort to determine what went wrong?

Is your phone bone stock at the moment? (locked BL, no root, stock rom, stock kernel)
I had the issue initially - the phone wouldn't wake up a couple of times a day and I'd have to soft reset. But I was rooted with a custom kernel, etc. and learning to use the tools for Sony phones (coming from Samsung phones). But now it's perfectly stable. In my case, I suspect it was a combination of how I was flashing things,etc.
Otherwise, completely stock, i don't recall the phone freezing. Have you done a complete wipe and repair via SUS or PC Companion?

Hey, yeah the phone is pure stock. I've not messed around with the software nor downloaded anything I shouldn't have. I've not done a complete wipe and repair but I'm thinking about factory resetting. Obviously this is not a hardware issue but I don't want to have to keep resetting my phone twice a day because that is stupid. Hopefully it was a one off and I guess I'm not too bothered but I may go in store tomorrow and just see if they will replace it. Silly reason to do so, I know, but I guess I'm within my rights if the phone isn't working properly. What do you think?

I only bought it a few days ago and manufacturer's warranty is 12 months here I think I'll keep it and see if a firmware update helps because it is perfect hardware wise and I won't be happy if they give me a new one and it has gaps etc. Would you happen to know if the new update helps with the camera/overheating issue?

Ah man. In a way I'm glad to see I'm not alone at least! For some reason mine is mostly random but I've kind of noticed it happens after I pull the charger out. Have you tried to go in and exchange it? If it's the camera causing it, it seems easily reproducible.
@shaf46
Hey Shaf, sorry to bother you mate. I just don't understand what is wrong with this phone! My estimated time on with stamina mode is down to 1 day a few hours again. It is a brand new phone I only got it yesterday. Is it the way I am charging it or is it just buggy software? I don't have any apps I don't need and even tap to wake is off. The battery works normally I guess although it is draining a bit fast (5% in 20 minutes while using it) but I don't understand what could be causing this to happen!

It's happened to me once where the phone wouldn't switch on after sleeping, turned on after about 2mins, but only when I received my magnetic charger and started charging with it. Not sure if the magnetic charger is the problem since I only had that problem once and never happened since.
Are you charging it with a magnetic charger?

Did you manage to sort it out? No I'm using the standard charger provided but after charging it last night, the estimation of battery time in stamina mode has come down significantly. The estimation assumes stamina mode is not on but it is turned on in my notification bar. This time yesterday the estimate was at ~5 days.
Well, I maybe should have listened. So I had just flashed a ROM on my 6P, set a few things up, it was charged 98%, I downloaded an app, checked an e-mail, then walked away. Then after 30 minutes I went to the phone to check e-mail, and it was dead. I mean, wouldn't boot in any way complete black screen. Hooked up to computer, nothing. No buttons will boot the device.
So ridiculous....a $500 paper weight. Now I have to find a decent Verizon phone with good development to buy.
Well, had fun for 2 months!
Bye Nexus 6P forums!
OK - I held volume down button and power button for almost 3 minutes and it finally booted. This never happened before. Scary, but if this happens to you take note! :silly:
So my phone is unusable and I have to find a new Verizon phone that has good development. Good luck to me - guess I'll have to sacrifice my unlimited data I've had for many years for a phone with a new carrier so I can root it with good development. I hate Verizon.

Unusable how? You just said it booted.
Is your bootloader unlocked? Can you get into bootloader mode? If so, you could try flashing a factory image.
Don't give up so quickly. Your issues might be related to the ROM or something else you installed.
Jeez... Jump to conclusions much? Can we get more info please?

I almost want to say just send it to me because I could almost guarantee I could help get it booted. If when you plug it in to your computer does the computer recognise it at all? Edl mode? Can you enter bootloader or anything?
Since your 6P is only 2 months old, why not use the warranty?
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Thanks guys. I was able to revive it again and flashed a different ROM. It would not boot in any way - plugged into my computer, bootloader mode, nothing. Then it went into a bootloop. Finally I got it to boot and flashed an older ROM after transferring the appropriate vendor image to internal from my computer. I'm nervous it will happen again. I will switch to a new ROM now and hopefully won't see this happen again. Very frustrating evening.

Thanks guys. I was able to revive it again and flashed a different ROM. It would not boot in any way - plugged into my computer, bootloader mode, nothing. Then it went into a bootloop. Finally I got it to boot and flashed an older ROM after transferring the appropriate vendor image to internal from my computer. I'm nervous it will happen again. I will switch to a new ROM now and hopefully won't see this happen again. Very frustrating evening.

i know this is a old post but do you by any chance remember how you got it to boot again. I am having the same problem and after shutdown i was able to turn it on one time by pressing the power button for 30 sec but now it's dead again and wont turn on after long power button press.

Have you tried volume down and power? Hold it for up to a few minutes...

did that too. But nothing seems to work.It doesn't even get noticed by pc.
Would you recommend a battery swap.
I remember freaking out when that happened to me. My 6P was dead for like 20 minutes. I kept plugging it in, holding power and volume, etc. I got so mad I banged it against something and created a small dent near the power button, which I lived with for the rest of the year until I bought my OP5T.
Hope you were able to fix it. I kept trying and trying to resuscitate it and finally it booted. :good:
