Phone will not power on (Sometimes!) - Verizon LG V10

I am not sure if I should be concerned, but this has now happened twice. Sometimes I let the phone slow charge from my desktop PC. This morning, after turning the phone off last night, it would not power on. It was connected to the desktop when I shut it off last night. This morning, with the phone still connected to the USB port, I turn on the V10 and nothing! To get it to power on, I had to hold the power and volume down button for about 15 to 20 seconds. I have been connecting it to my PC and my work laptop since I bought it last May. I did not have the problem until the latest update that was just pushed to the phone. Has anybody else had this problem?

Mine has started doing the something, it shut off for 2 days with boot loop issues, just came back on after i brought a new phone.

Having the boot loop issue here. Verizon just told me in chat that the latest update is known to be causing boot loop issues. Maybe it's possible it also stops these phones from turning on at times. I'm hoping to get mine to start up before having to send it back to Verizon or LG.

I have most recent software. I turn the thing off and on constantly. Mostly by switching batteries. Hopefully this doesn't happen to me. As it is, I most likely WON'T be buying LG again.

Lumia not starting anymore

Yesterday my Lumia shut down, it had too less battery.
Now I charged it the whole night on the power plug but still no life sign
Is there a trick to get it back to life? with my other phones I removed battery and inserted again which worked. I also tried to USB-connect it to my Laptop.
issue is solved, I had to push the power button for 10 seconds (it felt lot longer...)
Had this same issue on my Galaxy Tab. Very strange.
had similar issue on first day with my lumia 800.
got into my car and noticed bluetototth did not connect.
I checked the phone and noticed bluetooth was off.
Tried to swith it on again - but failed.
Decided to restart the phone, switched it off and was unable to switch it on again!!!
I pulled the simcard out and managed to swith the phone on...
Same issiue here, but not been able to solve it until now. The Screen hangs at the "Nokia"-LOGO ?!?!
Any ideas? It has been charged for 1h now!
Hold down for 10 seconds release and then hold down again.... this is a bug of some sort... sure it will be fixed in a firmware update.

Mine turned off as well, it took me like good 10 minutes to get it working again. It's a really annoying bug. Holding it down 10 seconds doesnt work. It turns on and stays on a red one bar battery indicator...
i had same experiences, once i was charging my lumia,but I couldn't turn on. I plug in/out power cable, no sign on the screen, try few times later, finally it switched on

[q] need immediate help

After having the origional HTC Amaze i purchased sent back to TMobile due to my WiFi not working, they sent me a referbished one. 3-5 days ago my phone began to shut off at random times. But tonight it shut off, and when I went to turn it back on, it vibrated like it should but the screen stay black (No Tmobile splash or anything). I proceeded to remove the battery for 30 seconds (counting by mississippi's) and reinserted the battery. Again, it vibrated like it would turn on, yet the screen stayed black. I retried this process multiple times to no avail. I read on another thread that i should plug it in for 30-45 minutes incase the battery is dead. Upon plugging it in, the charge light booted orange like it should, but went out and the phone will vibrate like its booting, pause for 60 seconds and vibrate again.
I tried to factory reset it (Hold down the volume down key and press the power button) And it again stayed black and vibrated like it was trying to turn on, but the screen stayed black.
Im not worried about anything on the phone being lost or destroyed. I never tried to root it or anything, i just put music on it.
If anyone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated.

How long ago did you send it to tmo for the replacement? I would just send it in for another replacement if you are still within the time frame. If you never rooted it or modified it then it has to be a hardware problem or maybe try a different battery
Maybe 3 months ago? I don't have insurance but the funny thing is, it started happening when i downloaded a software update

If the device wont turn on, there is really no troubleshooting you can do besides trying a different battery. Call t-mobile and if they won't help you call htc directly, they have a 1 year limited warranty (i think it cant have any physical damage like its been dropped or anything)

[Q] Phone responds to nothing, not even a charge cable.

I wasn't sure where to post this, since my phone doesn't have a specific forum... I have a Motorola Razr V XT885 running Android 4.0.4 on Virgin Mobile. For the last week it has been rebooting randomly. Normally this would be a minor annoyance, but it has been taking 4 hours to finish booting back up. Today it just died, while charging.
I use the charger that came with the phone and I have tried 2 others, nothing at all. If I plug the phone into my computer it recognizes it and installs drivers. But I get no indication that the phone actually works. No LED light, no phone off charging screen, nothing. I have tried just turning it on, I have tried the power +volume button and I have tried removing the SIM and SD cards. So far nothing has worked....
Can anyone give me any indication as to what might have happened to my phone?
Might be a hardware problem. Take it ti tech service... From what i hear it seems it's not software related...

Got it to power on last night. It's now been stuck at the boot up screen for 8 hours.... If it's a hardware problem I'll just replace it, I've been looking for an excuse to get a new phone anyway.

[Q] Phone won't turn on (black screen) but it vibrates once every 34 seconds

I'm completely at a loss here. I was running a 4.3 rom for the past week or two with no issues. Pulled my phone out of my pocket 30 min ago, hit the power button and the screen wouldn't light up. I tried it again and still no go. I tried swiping to unlock, even with the black screen and i felt it vibrate.
Ever since then my phone is non responsive. I can't get it to boot, can't hard reset it, nothing. The vibrates stop when I'm holding down power and down volume but that's about it. I timed the constant vibrates and they happen every 34 seconds according to the Win8 clock (which i've heard in inaccurate).
I'm gonna let the battery drain and hope that it will boot back up after it dies...but until then, any ideas?
Try plugging it into your computer and see what comes up. Which 4.3 ROM were you on?

That's the first thing I tried. I get nothing when i plug it into my comp. Nothing pops up in device manager. The comp doesn't detect it at all.
And I was running the 8/23 release of carbon 4.3 and I didn't have one problem with it until this happened :\
EDIT: The phone's battery finally ran out. It stopped vibrating and after a bit i plugged it in. After a few min it just starting doing it again.
I disassembled the phone and removed the battery for awhile hoping it would somehow help. Didn't do anything. It showed the flashing charge light (like when it's really low) for maybe a minute then it stop lighting up at all. Sometimes if i leave it unplugged for a bit and plug it back in it will flash the light again. That's about all I'm getting out of it now.
I'm thinking something failed internally. It happened while it was on and I was using it so there's no possibility that it was from a flash or anything like that.
Took my phone to the sprint store. The tech wasn't sure either but he thought it might be the screen that died. The vibrating could be the phone trying to boot then realizing there's no screen. They took it apart to check for moisture/damage and said I'm good to go for the $50 replacement.
So my new Evo will be here Tuesday.

did you resolved it i'm having same had same issue as you mine is htc sensation but think is the same thing ive replacet the digitizer some day ago and it was working very good untill it start to vibrate and than died, now it flashes an orange light when i try to charge and after a while stops but i cant power it on nothing hapens when i press power button
Did you resolve the issue?
Did you ever resolve this issue? My Evo LTE started doing the exact same thing this evening and all of the Sprint stores are closed until tomorrow. I figure it's something internal that died and I can't see what it's trying to do... I guess you just got the replacement and didn't ever get it resolved with that particular phone?

Help Unbricking old LG V10?

My LG V10 died all the way back in July I think, due to the bootloop bug. Now it refuses to even bootloop, nothing comes up on screen. When plugged into PC while holding power Qualcomm 9008 comes up, which gives me a start. I am using an LG-H900. So can't flash that boot.img that only uses 4 cores. However, I do have an SD Card (idk how that would help just lettin ya know). Any way I can fix this? Right now I use a OnePlus 3 instead.
*edit* was playing around for a bit, and plugged it into wall and it said charge more before turning on. It has been plugged into the wall for a bit and still says this, and tries to turn on every time its plugged in instead of charging. Any ideas?
Yes annoying feature on many newer phones,
They try to turn on automatically when they think they've got enough juice.
Even tough once they start booting the battery level plummets and the phone just stops and goes charging again and repeat the story.
I've got no idea if it can be turned off. i don't think so.
Send it to LG. They've extended the 1 year warranty to 27 months from purchase or 30 months from date of manufacture.
