Hi,
few months ago we were on a holiday and my mom took her Lumia 920 as a camera. All was going well, but one day when she opened the app, the screen was dark. After closing and reopening it was super overexposed, almost white. After next restart it was dark again.
She got scared and tried to restart the phone, but after shutting down the phone didn't turn back on. We left it on a charger for quite a long time but it didn't take the charge. I didn't think much about it since the battery was almost dead anyway, kept it's charge only for a half of a day, so I ordered a new one with SIM card contacts that got stripped in an accident.
Today I changed the SIM contacts, everything seemed nice, replaced the battery with new one (old one has exactly 0V, which is a little bit alarming), assembled the phone and nothing. Won't turn on, and on USB charger with ampermeter it shows 0A drainage, so it doesn't charge at all.
What can I do to revive it? My mom loves it as a camera since it is small and has really great optics. Even if it won't come back, how can I restore the data that was inside? It has about 50 GB of photos so it would really suck to lose it.
Thanks for any ideas
Hi,
did you already reset by pressing on/off and vol-lower together for at least 20 seconds? You can do that also while trying to charge. It worked fine for my 920.
Best regards,
Joachim
Hi,
yes, I indees tried this method with no such luck.
Thank you for your reply though.

Hi there,
I know this is an old thread but I had a similar issue and it turned out that the cable going from the USB port to the motherboard was torn.
You can buy a replacement for just a few monies and fit it very easily if you still have the phone.
I hope this helps someone

I checked out a few other threads, on a couple forums and dont think anyone has been stupid enough to do this so far...
about 4 months ago, I was lost and my phone was dead, having bodged a car charger together I plugged it in.
The phone turned on, booted up and I got the SatNav software running, but before I could drive off it started flashing.. screen, lights, like a tiny disco....
Then it smoked, quite a lot for a second or two, by this time I'd took battery out and dis-connected the charger but it was too late, the phone was dead.
I got home, put the battery in a desktop charger til it was full and the phone has remained at it's current condition since.
So; it won't turn on, vibrate or flash any lights. The ONLY thing it does, is power up the right hand side bottom white light between the home key and back button.
I've been Ebaying since the day I killed it for a spares one, tried buying a main board but no joy anywhere without paying over £70 (and that's for a complete but knackered handset).
My dad's good with phones, his mate better also both of which said i've burnt out some chips. Some do kinda, have small 'holes' in, and I wiped a 2GB card too, wont work in anything else.
Without spending silly amounts on a new phone can I not do anything with this? Apparently everything except the main board should work (screen, digitizer etc)..
Help anyone please? -ta.
I suggest that you contact your local support team because I think this is something that needs to be examined at a repair center.

I dropped my X10a, and cracked the screen/digitizer. Is it easier to replace the whole housing or just the digitizer? Any suggestions on which company supplies OEM parts at the best prices?

I allowed my Lumia 800 to fully discharge overnight. Next day, I plugged into the charger. 2 hrs later, still dead.... later that day, still dead. Next day, tried all sorts (including all in the Seida website as below) Still dead. Took it back. Returned to Nokia.
Anyone else with the same problem - it seems it might be a problem associated with software version (ie a fatal flaw). When I get it back I'm gonna fully discharge again & try to re-charge. If it bricks again, it goes back for a refund.
I'm interested if others have had the same issue, so a picture can be built of the extent of the problem...
http://www.seidea.com/2012/02/14/no...e-battery-drained-devices-cant-turn-on-issue/
Thanks!
Mine has gotten discharged once. Though it turned on as soon as I put the charger in.
Hold power button 15 seconds+.
nope...
Nope.... tried holding power button for >30 secs, tried all other button combinations as recommended. No joy.
Are you using USB power or wall outlet power?
USB...wall etc
Tried both for extended period (several hours) - absolutely nothing.
When connected via USB to my PC, and with dis / re-connecting the cable etc etc (as advised) it started to do a restore, got to 80% then died. The L800 then UTTERLY was bricked. A further day of trying to kick it into life led to nothing so it went back to Nokia. Am told to expect it back / replaced within 7-10 days (this from T-Mob where it's on contract).
I had the exact same problem with my girlfriends lumia and after reading all the posts from Nokia forum and tried everything but the one with the heating of the battery , nothing worked.
So here is the solution that worked for me: I used the USB cable with zune and placed the device on my laptop right in a warm place ) ( by mistake ) after 5 minutes it started and now I told my gf to never let the phone discharge to 0%
Hope this is helpfull to anyone , thank you

Sounds like they had to plug and unplug a few times to get it going.

heating the phone works. Mine ran flat and refused to turn back on, I heated it with a hairdrier, plugged the USB in (attached to the mains) and it charged! Not sure how long I heated it for but it was HOT.
is it just me or....
... is it reasonable to have a device that:
(i) you have to fret about ensuring it's ALWAYS got some charge, or run the risk of killing it, and
(ii) you have to HEAT IT WITH A BL**DY HAIRDRYER to make it start... ?
The purpose of my post was to see if this is a random, could-happen-to-anyone, fault... in which case, OK, I'll have Nokia sort it... or is it a design fault that (i) I would expect to be sorted before (& certainly after) launch and (ii) means I would look to send the 800 back & select a different WP7 device.
Anyway I hope mine comes back in good shape & that's the back of the problem.
Still interested in other experiences. I'm NOT really interested in HOW people got over the problem (hairdryers, rapid plug/unplug / extended USB sessions etc) - that is now a moot point since I sent mine back. I AM interested in a straight poll on how many other people had this problem... ie is it a design issue?
Thanks!
... yes ccalpha!
Thanks for that anandtech url - that's exactly the issue. Nicely described as a 'reboot loop' - a Catch-22 where there's insufficient charge to kick start the boot / charging process so it shuts down. Exactly.
Just to add, I upgraded my 800 to the latest software version via Zune, 2-3 weeks ago, so I would say that this issue is NOT fixed by the current software.

It's kinda tacky of you to tell people that it's not ok to share their anecdotal experiences in a discussion based community.
You'd be better suited turning your thread into a poll rather than a conversation.
sorta a fair point... it is interesting to hear what people have to do to get their phones working again. But my point remains - i was clear i sent mine back and that I was interested in sensing the extent of the problem.
Thanks to all those who responded. I'm grateful. When I get my phone back and if it bricks again, I'll be sure to have a range of hair utensils ready...

battery
Actually a poll is what I wanted to establish. I'm interested in mapping battery problems to (eg) firmware or OS revision. It may be that battery problems are prevalent with a particular revision. As I reported, I had the latest OS and my battery failed me.
If there is a generic product issue, we owe it to ourselves to highlight it.
I agree that it's interesting to hear anecdotes of how people fixed (temp?) the problem but my point remains that we shouldn't have to go to such lengths to manage / resurrect / fix our nice shiny (expensive!) Lumia 800s...
battery itself is fine, try turning on airplane mode you will notice expected power consumption, iirc ~4% / 10 hours standby . either component related to radio is faulty ( and i doubt that) either nokia ****ed up something with power management ( and they are to stupid to manage to fix it)
I believe it's generally acknowledged that current crop of smartphones are pushing the limits of battery technology - witness the many forums (Nokia, LG, Apple, etc etc) where the issue of battery drain is debated.
While my L800 is in dock with Nokia for repair or whatever, T-Mobile loaned me a Nokia 2330 (not so smart-phone) and I've had it 4 days now, used it as I normally would use the 800 and it's still showing full battery.
Having said that, I suspect that the L800 is hungrier than many (for some reason) and/or there is a basic flaw that is still not addressed with latest FW...maybe I'm wrong.
So it looks like I'm suffering something similar:
Last night I was charging the phone, and it suddenly stopped being able to open any apps, attempting that just left it with a back screen with white 'loading' on.
Powered on an off, then the phone couldn't get any signal, and the app opening problem remained. Powered off, removed SIM and powered on. Phone shut itself down and has not powered on since.
Left it on charge for a copule of hours, both USB and two mains adaptors, nothing. Tried button combinations, nothing.
It appears to be a brick.
Great.
Rusty! Hmmmm sounds familiar. What version of firmware ? Did you update to the latest a couple of weeks ago?
Feels as though there's a bigger problem than just high battery drain with some devices.
Anyone from Nokia read this forum? ...And care to comment?
worst thing is that it seems almost every device is affected, this is really big fail from nokia. even their official forum has similiar threads
Hello nokia... Anyone there?
As many have said (& on the Nokia discussions) the 800 is a lovely phone, spoiled by serious battery problems.
I've had mobile phones for 20+ years (work and personal) and this is the first time I've had to return one for repair. The 800 IS a lovely phone & WP7.5 is excellent in the main BUT Nokia will suffer if users no longer trust this lovely device.
Mine is with Nokia for [repair / replacement]... I will test the one I get back very quickly after getting it home. If it fails again, it goes back for refund...
hi,
Thank you for looking at my question. I have a prime which is roughly 15 months old. rooted and running the new energy rom. I use this both for work and at home daily and I am totally happy with everything about it.
Over the past week or so I've noticed that it's hard to plug in the charger every evening and today when I plugged it in the display went dark. You can very faintly see the start up screen but no real lighting at all. I took a look at the charger and several of the cooper peices are bent over and you can see a bit of where on both sides from 15 months of use.
I just contacted Asus customer service and got the normal caveats you typically get when you attempt to return for repair anything by phone...it will take about a month, you need to pay for shipping, etc.
i checked this forum using keywords like "Damaged charger" and didn't come across anyone else that's had this problem. Is anyone familiar with this issue? There's no reason except the charger (and the possible short to the display I just caused plugging it in ) that I wouldn't be happy with this tablet for a few more years. I just don't want to put out, potentially, comparatively alot of money if the plug has been failing regularly for others too.
Anyone familiar with this problem? does anyone who's dealt w/ Asus care to guesstimate a cost?
Thank You for your help.
So I have seen several threads on this. Need your guys help.
This is what I had before **** hit the fan.
Droid DNA
Rooted/S-Off/Unlocked
CM 10.2 Nightlies
In working condition when I went to sleep....
So what happen, who knows. I was playing D.O.T before hitting the sack. Battery was at 48% before locking the screen. Thought about charging my phone but decided that my HTC One needed to be charged first. Fast forward 6hrs later, HTC One giving me the green light that its good to go but my Droid is not tuning on. NO CHARGE Light, NO USB CONNETION, NO LIFE. I thought that maybe phone must have died. Bit weird though as it was only 6 hrs and I have never seen any of my phones die in 6hrs and screen off.
I did all of the available troubleshooting as I can think of.
Hold Volume - & Power Button - 30 Secs NO GO
Hold Volume + & Power Button - 30 Secs NO GO
Hold Volume +&- / Power Button - 2 mins NO GO
No go... thought maybe system may have been stuck or super deep sleep.
Apparently i dont have warranty with Best Buy. they scammed me, screw them, for another topic... So
Pulled back battery cover...
Unscrewed the screws that hold battery cable. Pulled out and waited 10 min before replugging it back in. NO GO.....
Took apart phone, took MOBO out, USB chip, top chip that hold the SIM, left everything out for about 12hrs, took a break and put everything together NO GO
So I consolidated with some friends and they had some success on their about this matter.....
Connect USB into Computer for 10 min then battery reset by Volume -+ and Power Button for 2 min NO GO
Charged for 12rhs Via Computer and did above NO GO
Charged for 12hrs via Power outlet NO GO
At this point Im leaning towards hard brick but idk how, didnt really do anything last night. Just sat there next to my other phones. No auto updates or anything that would require system reboot of anything of the sort.
At this time I have no charge light, no sign of life, and im about out of options at this time. I would send out to JTAG team to get it fixed but I dont have the cash to send out. My concern is that I recently bought the phone back in July and now Im bummed that it deosnt work. Money well spent but now a brick. Reverted back to my Note 2 and Moto X for the time being but would like to have her back up and running as I personally liked the phone.
Anyone recommend any option that I havet listed above or is there a way I can JTAG the sucker at home?
Also, as you can imagine from the the above, I have no way to adb and try to force something in it if software related....
*sigh....

Tell verizon your charger port just stopped working and you tried multiple chargers and it still won't charge until it powered off. They'll replace it.

So called Verizon and told them that my phone has does not turn on at all. they troubleshooted with me on the phone.....
Nothing worked......
They said that they would send one out but I had to ask....
I have a small crack on the screen and that it didn't affect the phones ability to be used right. They said that well they could replace it but if the phone is serviced and they find out that the crack was some how the main reason that it was the problem (Keep in mind this is Verizon we're talking about) they would slap on the the full price of the phone on my bill.....
To my knowledge and experience sounds like the board took a crap and even if the replaced the screen, the board would still need to be changed out. If they say it was the screens fault, I cant say it wasn't it was the board because they'll question why I think that and how would I know, did you open it?
I did save the void sticker and it does show small signs that I was in there but I hate to risk having my account charged at full price for a phone.
Such a dilemma as its a brand new phone besides the crack in the screen. I talked to my coworkers about this and they said I could wait for a DNA to come in as a sale or total lose and try to snag the MOBO but who's to say that phone isn't blacklisted or worse.
All of the phones I have are what I call Frankenstein phones. I work in a shop that repairs cell phones/xboxs/ps3/computers and we pay for broken crap. Most of the time its a screen problem. They dont get insurance and dont take care of their phones so I scrap them and use different parts from other phones to build one. The only phones I eve bought was the DNA, Droid Razr, well most droid serious going back to OG..... just a Droid person.... stick it to IOS and Apple, lol.....
But back to the problem, I could wait for something to come in but again, they usual call VZW and blacklist it and then only good for screen, usb chip, and SIM/earphone jack chip.
What bothers me is that I bought the phone with my own money versus having parts come in and just putting them together so having a brand new toy break hits hard.....
I tried to see if there is any at home JTag is available but all i find is links to send it out to online place that services everyone....
Try a different battery. Maybe in those 6 hours the battery the battery discharged below the "point of no return". No battery, no nothing... Even a super bricked DNA will light the led when charging... But take out the battery and you dont get anything...

I have had similar issues. This has happened to me at least twice with the same dna I have. When I tried to charge it the orange light would not even come on.
My solution was to open it up and unplug the battery. If you have not done this yet you probably should. There are two tiny screws holding it onto the motherboard, take those off and pop the ribbon off the motherboard. After that, put it back together and try to turn it on. Make sure your power button gets lined up correctly. If you need to, check some tutorials on youtube on how to take the dna apart.

might try to PM @Zarboz .. beens is you fix stuff and he has a JTAG service maybe youll can work something out or if you read his profile he will do it for free with some conditions ... sorry .... and good luck
i have taken the phone apart already, down to the last bolt and sticker in there. nothing..... I tried a different battery from another DNA, no dice. So I can rule out that battery didnt past it point of no return but also means Im still stuck with a brick phone.....bwaaaaaaaa
To anyone who has this problem
I've repaired my DNA two times for this reason. I've try everything, I've taken it apart completely and reassembled and nothing. I end up buy one with a broken screen to salvage the motherboard and BINGO. Got it back to life. (about a year ago)
The second time I got the same problem and just ordered a salvaged motherboard from EBAY. Got it working back again (this was 3 or 4 months ago).
Today guess what happend again??... It died yet again. Same thing... No life whatsoever.
After this I'm pretty sure this is the same fault over and over again. Just a poor quality motherboard, it just dies after some time. For me it took from 1 year to 3 or 4 months. Every time the only component that I swapped was the mainboard, nothing else.
I'm tired of spending money on a phone that by now I'm sure i'll die again. :crying:
This is very sad because I love this phone too much just to let it collect dust on the bottom of a drawer. It reminds me of my old HD2.
I will probably try and find yet another board for it on EBAY.
I know it's stupid to fix something that will almost inevitably die again. But thats love I guess.....
This is just my personal experience with this issue. Please try every other solutions before you buy a replacement board.
PS: sorry about my english. It is not my primary language.
Its sad how common ive seen this issue around the Internet and still no straight forward fix or reason. Just casjy playing some og angry birds and my DNA just decides to turn off. RIP I guess, it was a good run.
My dna died today.
I have not taken it apart yet, but I guess I have tried all the other alternatives.
Hi, I have a problem with my T399n.
My phone doesn't turn on, I installed CM12 and it was good, then I flashed the stock ROM from metro again, everything was good about a month, one day I made a call, whatsapp, text and then I put it in my pocket, then when I pulled it out like 10 minutes later and it was rebooting, I didn't pay attention to this because sometimes my phone reboots itself, later It was power off. I pulled the battery, reinserted it and nothing, connected usb cable, nothing, tried to charge it and nothing, Its like my phone died. Looking for a fix, there is the usb jig that work with others galaxy's.
So I just want to know if I'm fried or if there's a last hope to revive this phone with the usb jig
Thanks!
Something similar to this happened to me, would love to know the answer...
just today...
just today, not 2 hours ago at most I was playing around with my galaxy light, deciced to root and mod it.. first step was to, ofc flash a custom recovery... well like most things I pursue I ended up fighting the damn thing for HOURS!! could not get it to register on my computer for the life of me.. now I'm far from a dev and probably one of the least experienced on/around here but something so trivial as lack of drivers, udev, faulty port/cords isn't my forte.. so eventually I whipped out my handy dandy usb jig and .... nothing... *head scratch* hmmm.... now its got my attention... so I get out the multimeter usb data/charging cable and it does show signs of life, easily registering 5.1v / 0.4 mah ... now I'm getting anxious.... so its time for the next test... usb-otg connected to dbl usb-type-A converter to connect to the pooter (it never works but I wish it would ) and nothing there... so otg to my main mobile, reverse it... hmmm seems this lil guy is taking in charge and no data xfer of any kind... since id already rotated various cables I turned my attention to the charging port.. under 6x magnification and too many lumens light I could hardly see any problems but persisted with the 99% isopropyl anyhow... end result "wtf is wrong with this garbage....?) and just as I went to throw it at the wall I spotted my personal "boneyard" where all of my former problematic/faulty devices end up and just in sight was another tmobile galaxy light, broken lcd but logic board intact.. so a quick flip of the wrist and a smack on the back and the 2 became one... fired her up, plugged it in and BAM.. instantly detected... and for some reason I cant quite seem to put my finger on, I had the urge to power it back off and insert my usb jig one final time to see if it infact would work with the galaxy light.... *device in left hand... jib in the right.... bead of sweat steadily sliding down my ruffled brow... time seemed to all but come to a screeching halt as the two came closer until the moment of trust had arrived... the initial contact, the penetration (lol) .. the pause... BOOM factory mode*
so, now that u read that half illiterate rambling from a barely educated redneck shut-in to determine if the usb jig works with galaxy light or not .. the answer is yes... it does unless its a piece of crap like one of the 2 I own is...

It does in fact work. If asking about the USB mount, from my knowledge you would've had to already installed them by turning the function on like I did in the first screen shot.
If you need them I can link them to my drive or mega. Whichever is best. Think I have drop box still too.
And yes. I have bricked this phone I'm using now for a solid 3 days when I first started with it. However cm12 has bugs, after the second time it rebooted and bricked on me I went back to Tigerlily I even had no SIM error but somehow fixed that when flashed back to stock. Cm12 caused me to flash back to stock about 3 times a day. Too much headache. Guess thats why we are not supposed to do this to our primary phones. on tigerlily ive Had a little trouble keeping super su in his place too, Got home last night and POOF, just gone for no known reason. finally got him to stick by installing him into the system with lucky patcher. Flashify, flashfire, and even rom installer all failed to keep him there. . I have also stripped down almost every file just for fun to see what other fine items I could damage, Finally found where they hide the dialer codes for the phone. They are not in any files that i have spent the last for years looking in. The codes are inside of the APK. The last place I decided to look. Everything I know is self taught and just recently started working with apps for windows 10 and merging android files into windows apps.
Now , I'm actually quite impressed with it's capabilities .
Really what's helped me dial everything in was the helped of an app called Mixplorer with all the ad-on's all of which are free.
Good luck with your brick. Myself, I have 3 other phones I'm currently working on unbricking. One of which is a hard bricked LG motion. Flashed th err wrong firmware to it a year ago. Just this week got the cup to recognize it. the code to get into the first service menu pictured here on the bottom left is *#0808#
