Screen won't turn on... only see blinking blue LED - Honor 5X Questions & Answers

Hi all,
Something very weird just happened to my phone
The phone was fully charged when I unplugged this morning and I was using it on my way to work as usual
However, when I look at my phone now... the screen is off and there is only a blinking blue light that is indicating the phone still has battery
I know my way around an android phone, so i've already tried the following:
- plugging to PC, but did not recognize the phone
- hold power button with any combination of the volume buttons for 30sec (or longer)
- plugged it into a charger for the past hour
All my attempts have yielded no results. The screen is still off and the blue LED is still consistently blinking
Oddly, when I am holding the power button, the blue LED will blink 4x, followed by a 5sec interval where nothing is happening... and then blue LED blink 4x (rinse and repeat)
and when i let go the power button, the blue LED light will resume blinking constantly without any breaks....
This is very strange and I hope it isn't a hardware failure because up until 3hrs ago, this was a perfectly working phone
more details:
- phone has bootloader unlocked
- phone is rooted and running PAC-rom
- phone is protected by case and it was not dropped recently
any suggestions? help?
thanks

I don't know how this happened either.... it happened so suddenly while the phone was perfectly functioning
I sent a couple messages... turned off the screen.... and a few minutes later, the screen was off and i couldn't do anything
the phone has been charging for multiple hours now, I finally decided to unplug it... however, no changes... still blinking blue LED and no response

they will support, but they will charge , (remember, no free repairs even under warranty, if you even unlock the boot loader )

I too have this problem. But my mobile gets booted up in around 20mts after this issue.
Not sure about the cause. I'm using stock EMUI 3.1.

no, thats very unlikely, because he said, he even hard rebooted the phone, but display doesnt turn on. so, i think, its a faulty display

yea, it turned out to be a hardware issue
good thing I am still under warranty, so I got an exchange from Huawei (very good customer service, btw)
the replacement phone is working like a charm now... hopefully it doesn't happen again

Possible Bricked Xperia X10a (not booting up)

Hi Guys, I have an unrooted Xperia X10a that had the rebooting issue where it restarts itself if I do heavy applications. I thought this was a software issue, so I tried to update the android software from 1.something to 2.something. However the phone rebooted in the middled of the update so now I have a dead phone. It no longer boots up (I don't even see the sony ericsson screen) and the only thing that works is holding the back button and inserting in the usb which gives me the green solid light and I hear the computer detecting it usb sounds. There's no light that turns on if I connect it through the power adapter so is there anyone who have experienced this issue that fixed it? Thanks and hopefully some of you guys will give me some solutions
use seus and repair..
this is a common problem
seus requires me to fully boot up the phone. As of right now if I try and turn the phone on, it just vibrates once(the normal power on vibrate) and the screen remains blank. If I plug the phone in on the pc I get a green LED light.
i have thesame problem here... i have search every day but it seems theres no SOLUTION for this kind of problem... developers please help us here

no you don't..
it is recognizing your phone.
you doubt have to fully boot to use repair in seus, how would that make any sense?

hmm.. try running the repair again.
could be a motherboard issue.
are you still under warranty?
I have exactly the same problem ,I flashed it with flashtool an PC compagnon many times . it works but when I reboot it about 4 or 5 times the problem come up again (vibrates once but no turning on)
It's seems like the flash memory losts its containing .
I've also notices then when this problem occurs the battery is not chargin ,so the charging is software-dependant .

download this http://www.filesonic.com/file/1998392364 install it and just follow the instructions and it'll boot up.
k now my phone doesn't even turn on after I tried to root it with the flash tool. No red light led nothing. I know there's atleast 30% battery before it fully died and refuse to restart.
Just try another repair BUT first charge to 100%.
Pull out battery plug in wall charger put battery in an leave off for 30 minutes then turn on and let charge to 100%.
Can't charge it to 100%. Phone refuses to turn on... no red light nothing happens when I plug in the usb through wall charger and the computer.

Have you tried the flash mode ?
Get an independent battery charger from SE, charge it to 100% then use it to help you flash a firmware back.
The SEUS works for me..thank you all..

Hello, try flash Kernel+Baseband. You probably lost that Kernel, if blackscreen all way long.
Whitefang
From all the phones I've used this usually happens when the battery is completely busted.
See if you can get your hands on another battery and try?
Good luck!!!
This happened twice for me.
Try leaving your phone in wall charger (not in PCs USB) for at least two hours and try again,
Hope that it will help.
Flash the Kernel and the Baseband

If its SDS take to a service centre if you are just guessing that its SDS then post exact problem
I'm not just guessing.. I've read about it for like 2~3 hours and tried to find a fix.
but the only fix is by flashing the 4.1.2 + roms but it can't even recognize my phone
when i worke up today, my phone wouldn't respond and the blue light just flickered. (i mean i couldn't turn the screen on.)
then i just took the battery off, and when i put it back and tried to boot my phone, nothing happend.
and now my phone is probably just dead.
so.. anyone can help me please?
You are guessing .
Their is NO FIX .
You require a new motherboard no ifs and or buts .

1) Complete eMMC failure. This usually happens over night whilst on charge* - The LED may be lit but the phone will not wake. Subsequent removal of the battery will turn off the LED. You will never get the LED back on. The phone will never turn on again. It needs to go to a service centre and have the motherboard replaced

Will it show recovery or download mode on screen.
thanks for all the replies. I can't see ANYTHING on the screen... it's totally black. no samsung logo, no recovery menu (which I guess is there but the screen doesn't display it)
very strange it happened all of a sudden this morning while I was crushing some candies

With your phone? That might explain it...
Seriously, though, I would suggest taking the phone apart (it's not that difficult, just look up the service manual for disassembly instructions), and checking the display ribbon cable and connector. Reconnecting it might help. If not, it's probably a service centre call...

[Q] Flashing red light when on charge, blue light on recovery but black screen!

I recently decided to root my Xperia Z Ultra and used a modified version of towel root to successfully achieve this, but had no custom recovery. Then using an app I flashed a ROM, the Google Play Edition of android kitkat, which afterwards I was asked to reboot my phone. It just shut down and on charge the notification flashes red, when I hold down power and volume up to reboot it buzzes three times but nothing else, and if I hold down volume up while plugging it in the notification goes blue and stays blue but my PC doesn't recognise it. In Sony PC companion I would be able to repair it by resetting everything, but I am unwilling to do this as I think that it might be a battery issue and it requires an 80% battery to reset. I really don't want to pay someone to fix this so any light would be appreciated. I can give more info if needed.
Thanks
You still have a locked bootloader. Flash a FTF to get back on stock and then unlock the bootloader
Thanks

Thanks for the quick response, when using a Sony tool to reset my phone it said I need 80% + charge to do so, because the screen won't turn on I don't know how much charge it has so I didn't use that tool. Does flashing a FTF require much charge? Because I'm not sure if its charging at all at the moment. I'm glad it might be such a simple solution and if I don't need much charge then hopefully I can fix it!!!

Hey, I have flashed an FTF but the phone still will not boot and now has a continuos red light on charge. I'm thinking this is a battery issue so how would I go about fixing this?
EDIT: The phone has now booted and is working fine! thank you so much!

If you do plan on unlocking bootloader be sure to backup your TA partition beforehand.

Yeah I did that but it was still 'stuck' I fixed it by holding down both volume buttons then also the power button for about 10secs. There was a small vibration and the light went off. After that just switched it back on and bow it's all rooted and running perfectly. Thanks guys.
