[Q] Hard-bricked Rezound! WTB cheap unbrick service. - HTC Rezound

After three years of reliable service, my Rezound is now hard-bricked. My extended battery case tends to shift around a bit as the battery heats up (the locking tabs are worn down) and the phone lost power DURING EMMC formatting, due to the cover popping off enough for the battery to come disconnected. After putting the battery back in place, no power, no charge LED, no USB connect sound in Windows, no ADB or Fastboot response.... JUST DEAD.
I was preparing this phone to give to a friend since I just got a One M8, but I doubt he wants a brick. I looked online for unbrick services, and it seems that a $50+shipping JTAG/RIFF unbrick is just not cost effective (the phone goes for $60-80 on Swappa).
Can anyone here find it in their heart to unbrick this thing at a VERY low price so I can give it to a cash-strapped friend? If not, into the lake with it! :crying: :crying:

this happens to me all the time....not exactly same but similar...I have android on my touchpad..whenever i dont charge it untill the battery dies...and i try to charge it again..it show me same screen...boots for a sec..then sticks at 1%....
I don't know about your case...but if you android on it..then try charging it on the WebOS....if it never boots up again then return it.....or talk to HP..someone is Classicnerd IRC got it repaired for free recently...
Turns out I have to use the Hp charger. Got it up and running. Now I will stick android on utility as I don't know anything about web Os. Thanks!

Yes, when it gets that low, you HAVE to use an HP plug to charge it. Otherwise, you sit there and play plug-unplug for about fourty-five minutes or more to get enough juice in it to boot it into Android and charge it.

[Q] What phone is this?

Was walking home, and found this on the floor. I've always wated to find a phone on the floor, but this isn't exactly what I had in mind.

All I'm able to tell is that it's a Samsung device, and it may be GSM because of the microSIM slot I see on the back. The back had no battery, no cover, no SIM, the screen is clearly decimated, two capacitive buttons missing (it takes talent to break capacitive buttons) and most buttons are pretty much loose.
I may spend a little money to get this thing fixed up, assuming it even turns on. I planned on getting a battery to test out first, then if it worked, fixing up the phone and keeping it or selling it. Not anytime soon, since I just bought a Nexus 4 while already low on leisure money, but it would be nice.
From the picture you provided and the detailed description it appears to be a Samsung Epic 4g.
If your interested in some replacement parts for the device I would recommend taking a look at these parts www.globaldirectparts.com/Samsung-Epic-4G-Replacement-Repair-Parts-s/6425.htm.

Severe Drop/Fixed my device

Was testing out my Desire X's camera and my butter finger'ness came back and it slipped, smashed the ground. The screen looks fine, it just smashed open st the bottom. The battery doesn't really fit in properly, but if you push it in hard it fits in properly, but the device doesn't turn on.
There is also this two clips, does it have anything to do with proving battery power?

My question is, can this device still be recoverable as its not as bad. And I had paid money for it. Cheapest way to fix this? I've tried pushing everything into place but it just flings out.
When connecting the device to the PC it has a blinking led at the top which is red. Which blinks on and off.
Edit - the device turns on just fine oo freaking strong device.
Yeah, should be fixable. I think you'll need this as replacement and hopefully it will work fine then. Didn't test myself, I only had to replace screen assembly some time ago, but this part is easy to replace, provided that you've got the right screw driver available.

[ask] charging problem

help guys i can't charge my phone in the OFF position, when i plug the charger on the phone, my phone ON again and start charging, i using miui v5 14.1.17 in my ktouch lotus 2 (titanium s1 , kiss u86),
so, I always charge my phone in ON position, whether it shortens the life of my battery? any help will be appreciated!!
From my own personal experience, charging while the phone is on should be no problem at all. The only thing that could cause trouble is if you use it frequently while it is charging.
oke thanks, phenom2122
but anysolution regarding my question above? whether the problem is in the kernel? or what?
sorry for my bad english, i use gtranslate
I would have to say yes, although that is an educated guess. Does it boot up completely all by itself when you plug it in? There was a trick to do this with Nokia smartphones. So when you plug it in, it does boot up certain services..
I would suggest that you look for information on MIUI in particular, it will have something to do with them. Or if you are comfortable with it, try a custom kernel.
Solved
program solved
just add this to build.prop

Starting a phone that hasn't a screen

Hi all ! Mods please move the thread if its wrong place, excuse my inexperience
I have an old phone made in 2014 , LG-P705 . Recently i have realized i had much much important files in it .
Whatever.. The problem is the phone's screen was cracked completely tried to fix it , bought a screen from chinese market then i gave up on it in 2014.
So we have a phone that LCD screen won't work at all. But the motherboard has not taken any damage. I charged the phone and it is alive. It vibrates when i turn it on and off .
i want to boot this phone and take the important files out. Is there any possible ways that we could start it guys ?
I have some ideas but not enough knowledge nor i am geeky about this stuffs. I think we could do a kind of a "mirror" between the Computer and the phone so that we will be able to see the files from the computer. Will it work ? Will we be able to see the files in it from the pc without using the screen ?
I am open to ideas. I need some geeks around here
