Is it dead? No boot or led - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hola! Last night my phone freezed for a few seconds before shutting down. I tried to reboot with no luck. No buttons combos no charghing,nothing,not even the red led that use to blink when it happened before after shutting down. The battery was low then ,about 15% and shut down but I managed to get it working . Now I had the same percentage ,around 15-30% on battery. I let it charge for about 10 mins and then tried booting again. Power+ vol up booted and showed "Download mode" . I don't know if it was me or the phone itself but it booted and Google appeared. Then Those circles appeared and after a few moments the have frozen and the phone shut down. Attempted again with no luck. I unplugged it and let the matter for today. This morning I again tried to boot up ,after a few attempts it booted but only got the Google screen before it shut down again... I let it charge for about 2 hours but still no luck with it. Connected it to the PC ,got the sound of a new device then the error sound and message of the driver. Disconnected and connected again and I got only the driver error sound without the new device sound if I don't change the port. Interesting is that if I press any button combination or just power while connected to the computer,after about 20 seconds of pressing I get the sound of disconnected and/or driver error. That gives me hope that it's not dead at all.. Might the battery be the cause? Replacing it would be a cheaper solution without losing data...Opinions? Tips? I had 3 different dreams in which I solved the problem...but the reality is a nightmare ( Heeeelp

Well it still shows signs of litttle life: If I let it without pressing anthing ,just leave it alone for a night or more and try to boot i,the red led flashes so I plug it right away get to the battery charging screen and that's i...I still hope it's because of the battery thinking hat the battery regenerates but cannot hold for too long.

Some kind of battery issue.

I've tried looking up a solution to this but can't find anything anywhere, I've also been trying to fix it all weekend.
Friday night my phone's battery ran out, yeah whatever, I'll just throw it on the charger. Plugged it in, and the screen that normally indicates you should plug your phone should come up. It's an empty battery with a lightning bolt inside of it. A few seconds later, the red "This Build is for Development Purposes Only..." stuff that comes up because of the custom ROM shows up at the bottom of the screen. After a few seconds, the screen turns off. It then repeats this from charge me icon, showing red text, then repeating. I'll be referring to this as Boltlooping.
So the first solution I found was to reset the battery logic by holding vol up/down and power for a few minutes. I rubber banded the buttons down and tried it. Nothing.
Second solution, plugging it in and immediately holding power button hoping it would boot. I tried this 5-6 times. Nothing. I've also attempted booting in to bootloader and recovery from this screen.
Occasionally, however, something that I can't identify or reproduce causes it to go to the normal charging screen. Trying to boot it from here from any battery % puts it back in to a boltloop. I've also tried doing the battery logic reset from this screen, but it doesn't work and puts it back in to bootloop. After trying to do either of these methods and getting back to the normal charging screen, the battery will be back at 1%.
This is as far as I've gotten with troubleshooting. I can get to the normal charging screen, though the battery will die and reset the charge % if unplugged or an attempt to boot is made. Most of its time, however, is spent in this boltloop state. I've tried resetting battery logic, booting in to recovery, booting in to bootloader, and booting normally from both the boltloop and charging states. Nothing. I don't know what to do.
Did you ever find a fix? Same issue here.

Galaxy tab S T705 not turning on without charger

hi guys,
sorry if i had to ask this i think i'm out of options that i'm aware of.
i have a tab s t705 which has been on stock firmware for the longest time(5.02, country PH) and a week ago it just died.
the tablet charges but does not turn on. i can get to odin and recovery modes but it does not boot to system. also it does not turn on when i unplug the charger.
what i've done so far:
. pressed the power button for more than 30seconds, unplugged - nothing
. pressed the power, home, and -vol buttons for about the same time, unplugged - nothing
. pressed the power button for the same amount of time, plugged - only charging icon with batt level, nothing else
. pressed the power, home, nd -vol buttons for a few seconds while plugged, gets into pdin mode but restarting it just goes back to charging icon
. pressed power, home, and +vol for a few seconds while plugged, gets into recovery mode and after trying factory wipe and wipe cache, still goes back to charging icon when rebooted
. followed a guide to remove the back cover and disconnected battery for more than five minutes and did the same steps - same results
. tried plugging in to computer where it was installed before - not detected, not even odin(3.05 - 3.11 versions) does not detect it
this tablet is absolutely out of warranty already and i sort of like this tablet. any chance i can still revive this, or were there some steps that i have missed?
seriously, thanks in advance for any help
If you have an DMM check the voltage of the battery it should be 4.35v fully charged battery, If the battery is faulty maybe that is what is stopping the tablet fully booting, maybe somebody else knows.
John.
unfortunately i dot have acces to such tool but i really am hoping that this could be just a dead battery.
i'll see if replacing the batt would fix this and reply back for the results. thanks!

Stuck in low battery boot loop

Hello, Huawei gadget friends.
My watch started to go in to a "low power boot loop" a week ago so I left it alone hoping a full drain would restore it back to working condition, but alas not.
So now this is the situation:
1) press button, nothing happens
2) connect to power shows the charging icon (white battery with power sign) and then after a few mins commences a boot loop as follows
3) from the charging icon, then gives the "Device software can't be checked for corruption..." message
4) followed by the red Huawei logo, then a single vibrate and then back to step 3 above
5) removing the watch from the charger stops the boot loop but then shows the low battery icon (white battery with one bar).
In one or two occasions, I saw it boot up to the colorful spinning 4 android wear logo, but did not complete (did not show "Android Wear" before rebooting again.
I have tried getting it to recovery mode screen or fastboot but without success -- I keep getting the second buzz without fail.
When the beta of 1.5 came out, I tried it, but since then, have wiped my mac and don't have the adb/fastboot software anymore. From reading the forums, there is now some new software called TWRP. Please advise what I can do.
Would I be right to suspect that it is some battery problem? Is it beyond help? :crying:
Thanks in advance!
MMM
Edit: I have also left it on for several hours charging (and rebooting constantly), thinking that perhaps it is just low battery -- but no success.
I'm experiencing the same problem, i turned it off yesterday at 17% and connected to the pc this morning to charge. I immediately noticed that it started looping with the white icon and it doesn't turn on, nor boots into download mode.
Have you found any way to restore it?
Mine doesn't show the red HW logo, charged for some hours and nothing.
I noticed that the pc see that there's something connected, but keeps saying "USB not recognized". I don't know what to do, i may open up and disconnect the battery
EDIT: SOLVED, it was just the cable that broke somehow. I soldered a new cable to the circular base but that didn't work, but as soon as i received this i connected to the pc and started pressing the button randomly till it showed the battery logo and started charging
I got this when I plugged it into my laptop. Plugging it into a dedicated USB charger solved my problem - I suspect the power rating on the USB socket wasn't high enough to charge effectively or that the USB socket is faulty in some other way. From what I understand, not all USB sockets are equal in that some are suitable for high-drain devices, some not so much. So trying another USB port on your computer may also help (Unfortunately at the time I was backing up to an external HDD on the other USB so that option wasn't open to me).
guyz, i have tried my method it actually worked on Xperia X Perfomance
When it goes to Bootloop for Drained battery, i just plug the cable and perform activity block method By pressing and holing power and both volume up and down and when it hits the 1st viberation i just simply release the key. (remember dont hold it too much long after 1st single viberation just release the keys ) and your phone will go to block activity mode. charging light will change it colors from red to blue.. after 2 minutes just press power button then you ll get another viberation and your phone will be seen as charged 2% and then it will be normal again...
i think it happens when battery drained and phone is unexpectedly trying to go boot in first place.
thank you

HTC 10 hard bricks, no warning, won't boot or reset, totally dead

This is a strange one.
HTC 10 2PS6500, Android 8. Has been working fine. Today I took the phone out of the pocket, to find that it's been turned off. Strange, I know the battery was almost full, so it's not a power down due to low battery.
Tried to turn it on with the power button, didn't work.
Held the power and volume up + down at the same time, a few seconds later the phone vibrated and powered up. Battery at 92%. No sign of what might have happened. Phone was working. I wondered what happened but soon forgot about it.
A few hours later, I charged the phone back to 100%. While using it, the screen timed out, when I pressed the power button again, a message popped up saying "HTC recovered from an abnormal reset, send it to HTC" or something like that, and it tells me to tap it twice to send. I tapped it twice, the screen came up. I have the option of Send to HTC or Cancel. I pressed Cancel. The screen froze after that.
Buttons are unresponsive. I pressed the power and volume buttons to reset it, it went black.
Since then I have not been able to get it to respond.
Power button alone - nothing. Tried even holding in excess of 1 minute.
Power + Volume Down - nothing. Held for 10 seconds, 20 seconds, over 1 minute.
Powr + Volume Up + Volume Down - nothing. Held for different durations of time, no difference.
Connected it to a charger, no response, the light up top where it lits when charging does not light up.
It's completely unresponsive. No boot screen, no vibration, nothing at all.
Any idea what else I can try?
well some new development...
I was trying to do the hard reset on the phone periodically. Sometimes with the charger plugged in (but no light on top indicating it's taking any charge). A day later, I was doing another hard reset (not expecting it to respond) but it vibrates and boots up. Since then it has been behaving normally. Strange that battery was at 21%, when it was at 80% when the screen froze. I charged it to 100% then backed up the data while I had it on.
I got about a day of usage out of it, then while I was on a browser scrolling down on a web page, the screen froze again. Battery at 75%. After trying to reset it, the screen went black. Since then, no response on attempts to hard reset.
I have a feeling if I leave it alone for a day and try it it will come back alive.
Doing a search on the net yield nothing except I did see a post someone made saying after the screen froze had to wait till the battery drains 100%, then charge it back up and it will boot again. Is this what is happening? If it's bricked how is it consuming battery?
Anyone has any idea sure would like to hear it.

One Plus-3 Black Screen. No LED No Vibration. Hardbricked?

So I had kept my oneplus3 on charge at around 10:00 Pm yesterday and fell asleep. Woke up around 12:00pm to see it was fully charged so I unplugged the charger kept the phone beside me and went to sleep. Today when I woke up I saw that the phone has a black screen and is completely dead. The LED light is not on. Plugged into the charger no response. Tried holding power button ..nothing. No vibrations or home button lights
Currently, there is nothing going on with the phone. No flashes on screen no LED. Absolutely nothing. Tried connecting to laptop (windows 10) dont see anything. It was working perfectly fine last night and i had used it for nothing but music then.
Question is.. is the phone hard bricked or completley bricked? what might be the reason? I searched youtube only to find 1 person with similar problem who had said that he kept the phone for 48 hours and when it was completely discharged he pluged in charger again and it started working.
I am confused. Have a lot of work documents inside and what if it stays the same after 48 hours?
Appreciate any help on the matter
update: Tried plugging in the charger a few min ago. The led turns red and Vibrates. Nothing else
Update 2: so after 24 hours of setting the phone aside. i plugged the charger and it went into charging. But now am facing a new problem. My bootloader is unlocked and the power button is busted hence whenever I press volume down and plug-in the charger it takes me to bootloader warning screen from where either it goes into charge or i press volume key and it goes into option which I again cant select cause power button is busted. Tried holding down the power button and connect to laptop(windows 10) no device detected and it works like normal charging. Tried to charge for a few minutes unpluged charger and start again .. it was stuck on oneplus screen. Any ideas??
