Half an hour or ten seconds is the same, still do that. It fixed mine but it was not because of flash issue, it just went off and never wanted to wake up again.

I had the same problem as you do and I fixed it with this guide. Also. be aware that theres a number of video tutorials on youtube, just type "zenfone 2 black screen" or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BboYFzgg7Jo

Be sure you've installed the correct ROM according to your current bootloader.
Cheers!

Did you use the search function built in to XDA? It is a nice feature that will pull up useful information like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1513359
Also watch this, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=211OzgB2xiE&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Also when did it start restarting? During the first boot, after a wipe was it working for a few days then started doing it?
How_Weird is to weird?

I did try that already. The phone was running fine until today. I'm not able to pass the loading screen
Sorry for my first reply, i had a bad day. Didn't mean to sound like suck a prick. You could be having the stuck power button issue some ppl are having. There are some that fixed it themselves, this link will help. If it is that http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1931310 . Let me know if that helps.

[Q] Help...Phone stuck, doesn't reboot

So my HTC One V suddenly got hanged when I was using it. I pressed power button once instead of holding it so the screen was locked. However when I pressed it again to unlock, nothing happened. Holding down power button doesn't work either to reboot. The low bat orange LED is blinking though but nothing else. In my previous phones I would just take out the battery & put it again but this isn't possible with this phone. Please post any suggestions.
I am using this custom ROM: ShenDuOS-v4.1.2-130607-Primou.
Any urgent response would be most welcome. I am worried about it. I tried taking sim & memory card but it didn't worked to wake up phone. Tried calling my One V from another phone but no avail. Please help!
Hold power + volume down button for 10 secs & it ll reboot

It didn't work. I had to wait for few hours. When the battery drained off completely it forced to power off. Then I was able to switch my phone on after charging. Still I think there might be some other method to resolve such problem instead of waiting for hours for battery to end.

I saw a suggestion in another thread that supposedly worked. Pull out the Sim card. Not sure why it does

Need help with dead phone

I have this M8 for awhile and out of nowhere, today it's just dead, can't turn on or do anything to it. I was talking on the phone then it just hang, so I turn off the screen and it went black after that. Tried to turn it back on, boot to bootloader, but nothing work, it's just black out. Any advise on this ? Thanks. Last I checked, the battery is on 40%.
PS. This phone has not been mod or anything like that, just got this phone for a few months so don't want to do anything to it yet. So basically, this phone still untouched with any mod.

Try a "hard reboot". Hold Volume Up and Power for 10 seconds.

Oh that's good then, was just about to suggest that you find Kisuke Urahara and make that device a Shinigami too. :silly:

Phone wont boot, what is the problem?

Today I was surfing the web and the phone locked up and restarted itself. Kept getting to the android screen with the red yellow and blue symbols then restarting. Left the phone alone to get back to work then the phone restarted finally went to use the phone and after about 3 mins froze up again. Now the phone won't get past the Google boot screen and if I want to try and power the phone on the power button has to be pressed in about 30secs to a minute of two.
Also i can't get into recovery mode reliably since if I select recovery the phone again freezes at the Google screen on reboot and never gets to recovery 9 out of 10 times other times I can get to recovery and then phone will then crash while in recovery or will allow me to use recovery long enough to wipe the cache and factory reset which neither has worked.
While Plugged into a charger and just sits there nothing on screen just a black screen.
Phone is on latest android unrooted and locked.
i had this happen to my SO's stock/locked/unrooted Nexus 6P.
Plug it into a PC, wait a couple minutes, then press and hold the power button for like 1-2 minutes.

What is this supposed to do? Where did you hear about this solution? Just curious.

I don't have any issues. I was just curious. I've just never heard of a fix for any phone that requires a button press for more that like 30 seconds.
So what is the expected outcome? Does the phone just reboot and simply function correctly? Do you have a link to the forum post you read this in?

Sure.
Here is where I read about plugging it into a PC and then pressing the power button:
https://support.google.com/nexus/troubleshooter/3337561?hl=en#ts=3337942,3339328
That didn't work (15 seconds hold). Then I found this random post on XDA where someone said they held it for more than a minute, so i tried that.
deanb1234 said:
Same exact problem. Phone was over 80% charged. Picked it up off of my desk at work to check the time and nothing. Just a brick.
Update*** I hooked the thing to power and nothing. So I just sat here at my desk for several minutes holding down the power button and the damn thing finally came back on. But I had to hold it for a very very long time, not the normal 10-30 seconds like it should take to do a hard power off. I'm talking minutes.

not sure why this worked, but it did. probably held it for 45s to 1m and it booted normally after that. honestly not sure what happened or why this worked.

I'm glad my old post helped! Just an update though, it did that a few more times and then eventually I had to have it RMA'ed as no amount of time would make it boot.

Yup same here. It can get to the boot menu but recovery only works 1/10 times and can't ever get through 54% of the boot log until it freezes and crashes.

Yup new one is getting here today. Anyways, before old one is sent off I am curious to see if the battery is even charging when I connect to the charger. Anyone know if I can use a multi-meter to check this?
