[Q] Soft, or even hard brick? Oo

Hey guys,
just flashed purexaduio over CM10.1...worked fine so far so i went under the show and let my One do my entertainment and then...all of a sudden...music stopped. Phone powered off. Battery is full, but no LED appears when plugged in. I can try to power it on/off (down't know in which state it actually is)
adb devices - shows nothing....
does someone has an idea?

Hold down the power button for 30 seconds. Does it reset or the capacitive buttons flash. Try the power and the volume down for 30 seconds.
Doubt you bricked it

nope...the only thing my One does is nothing....
no charging LED, no capacitive buttons, which flashes...no vibrations....
the only thing i can face is, that my phone is quite warm, given the fact that it actually does nothing

Happened to me too, complete hardware failure. Im investigating now. Not too happy

Yeah, I'm having the same issues. No pureaudio flash, but was using CM10.1. Hoping someone finds a resolve soon!

actually i'm not at home this weekend, so i cannot try around. but it would be great if somehase has a solution until tuesday xD

So far a solution seems distant. It seems to be complete hardware failure hence the lack of charging led and capacitive button emits. I would suggest going through the process of replacement as a fix is unlikely without a jtag device.

I spoke with an HTC employee today - the power supply in the phone appears to be destroyed. This apparently comes from using third party cables, but it is covered under warranty...
This appears to be a complete hardware failure. Not software related, sadly. Really turns me off from getting another One, I may see if Telus will exchange an S4 for me instead. :/

Device Will Not Turn On, Hard Reset Not Working, No Lights Working (LED & Soft)

Hey Guys,
I apologise for the long Title but I coudlnt figure out a better way to to title the thread...
anyways I went to bed and plugged in my phone as per usual with an alarm set for 1230pm. come 1230pm, alarm goes off, i snooze it until 1pm. The next time it goes off, the alarm sounds for about a split second and then its off - I didnt turn it off.
So obviously i am a bit concerned since this has never happened before. I check the device and its off. Mind you this entire time the phone is plugged into the wallcharger from HTC.
I think its a random reboot (which i have never had before) and try to reboot the phone - nothing happens.
I try the hard reboot - nothing
The lights, both soft keys and LED for power will not even turn on or respond. Plugging it into a computer, it isnt recognized. Its as if the device is just dead. The power was at 100% too.
I would like to add that it is currently plugged in. I am hoping it simply, inexplicably lost power (happened on my Xperia T) and i have to give it some long-term juice. It does get a bit warm while plugged in right now.
it was running CM10.1 nightly 5-20.
does anyone have any insight or advice for this?

This is the 3rd incident that I know of a phone dieing. Mine was one, then there was another, and now you. All running CM 10.1. When Mine died I was transferring files via usb with the computer so I figured something fried in there (weird but the only explanation at the time). I came here for help too. That phone is long gone at this point. The thing is that I was told it's very very hard to brick a phone like that with S-on.
I don't know. I do love CM but i'll be waiting for a stable build before I go back again. GL to you. I had it it returned under the pretense that it was a hardware failure.The other guy who's phone also bricked said that there is some sort of issue with the batteries or something. I haven't confirmed that with anyone.

You can try to scan the cm 10.1 forum. they are pretty unforgiving if you brick your phone. Try to get a logcat to them so they can take a look at it (sarcasm). They completely ignored my post (I had the alpha when it crashed and burned). He the other guy also posted there and they did go back and forth for a few post, but they squashed it pretty quickly. I haven't checked any of the AOSP forums, so it may not be CM 10.1 at all. It could very well be hardware issues. Either way, with S-off its very hard to do something like this and I'm really more convinced its hardware. But unless it can be confirmed that AOSP didn't cause the issue, then i'll hang on to my doubts and wait for something more stable. I give maybe a month or 2.

custom kernals running sense based roms and a launcher should tide me over till then. With desense version coming out and s-off soon, it should make AOSP roms more solid.

Thanks, I am dead certain its hardware related myself. I am going to leave this plugged in, maybe it really needs to get properly charged (its happened to me with my old Xperia T where it went into deeeeeep sleep due to power loss), so i will be keeping it plugged in until Monday and then taking it Rogers, thankfully i bought a warranty for just this sort of crap happening.

after you let it charge for a few hours unplug it put it under a bright light and hold power+volume down and see if it boots to bootloader. i know a few people have had this issue and the phone came back on. all said there was no charging led and wouldnt do anything

well when I had mine I tried leaving it plugged in for a day, but I didn't put it under bright light. I didn't notice a fast discharge with mine either. It was plugged into the usb port to my computer and I was transferring files. I could have missed it though, I mean I was around 90% at the time and wasn't too worried about the charge.

I'd try all the tips first. especially the bright light trick. Other than that it's off to your carrier or HTC for repair/exchange

OP here...
I have a new one in the mail for a swap...I have had no luck whatsoever with any tricks.

...and they sent me a device with a scratched up screen :/
does anyone know if a similar issue to mine was fixed? either on XDA or somewhere else? i really just want to get back to my own One

I had this happen to mine. No fix I've seen works, they just replaced mine with new one. If they sent you scratched replacement all I can say is complain and demand another one.

So you guys have cm10.1 installed when it happened? just want to confirm it occurs only with phones with cm10 installed, and not with Stock rooted sense! I don't want to end up like this, so I'll avoid cm roms for now, I'll stick with Sense only, and If the problem occured with Stock rooted sense, I will not even root my phone
Can you guys confirm this?
Thanks in advance,
cheers

[Q] Flashed a corrupted hboot.img... bricked

So... I was trying to revert my M7 to stock so I could send it in and get the camera fixed. At the time it was bricked, it was S-off.
I followed this guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44080767&highlight=model+id+check+fail#post44080767 and downloaded the hboot they linked. I didn't realize it, but the download completed with only 100k or so completed of the 2mb file. I wrote it in fastboot, rebooted and BAM. Black screen. When I plug in the USB, I get a sound that the device is recognized, but that's it. ****. What else can I do? Holding the power button doesn't even make the lights flash, because I have somehow written a corrupted 100k hboot to my phone. Is there any way to fix this? Should I just give it to the courier who was going to pick it up to fix my camera and tell him some story about how it suddenly bricked?

Can you still boot into Bootloader.
If so can you post a fastboot getvar all..

Can't get into bootloader-- the screen doesn't turn on. I just hear the USB sound when I plug it in/unplug it. Can't seem to turn it off. Computer recognizes it as QHSUSB_DLOAD

That is bad, have not seen a single person who was able to fix QHSUSB_DLOAD.
Sending it to HTC will be the only fix as far as I know.

oh jesus... is there anything I could tell the courier/HTC that would make sense? I bought this phone 2 months ago...

They probably won't be able to tell if the phone was ever rooted. Dead motherboard.. Just hand it in.. and if under warranty they will replace it.

QHUSB_DLOAD issue sometime happen for no reason (dead motherboard) even if the user have not tampered with the phone. In this case you did but they will not know.
So better to tell something like: I let my phone charge, when I woke up in the morning it was dead instead of telling them you droped it on the floor (as it could void the warranty)

[Q] ATT HTC One, Non-Rooted, No Issues Suddenly Non-Responsive in HSUSB-QLoader

Hey all,
I've had an HTC One M7 from ATT for a year and two days. I know it it is that time, because I according to ATT and HTC, it's my problem now because my warranty and insurance expired.
It has been a wonderful phone. I have not rooted it or ran any non-Play Store apps. I have not dropped it or exposed it to water. It was working normally, and sitting at 70%, when it powered down.
Power button and holding it down didn't do anything. No response from being plugged in. I ran through power+up vol, then power+down vol, then power+up vol+down vol (for five minutes). I will let it charge all tonight, but I don't know if that will do anything.
When plugged into my computer, it registers as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM5)," which from what I read, is the sign of a hardbrick.
I am currently abroad and don't know if I will be able to find a JTAB (from what I gather, that can help). Are there ANY other ideas of how to get this phone running again? It happened so randomly, I can't imagine that the HW would suddenly die; it must be SW.
My only thought is that it doesn't like the HTC European charger, and it Borked the charge data. But HTC Tech Support said as it was OEM, there shouldn't be any problem.
A few important work SMS and the phone number of a date I was in the process of confirming with are on this phone. Please help.
Heartfelt thanks,

your phone is bricked, this tool is the only known way to recover from qhusb_dload mode, read the guide carefully and follow instructions.
the only other way out of this is to send your phone to htc so the can replace the motherboard.

This just happens without any signs or warning? I feel like a critical software problem like this would be taken care of in debug. The only change to my phone was an OTA to Sense 6 two weeks ago, but it hasn't had any problems software or otherwise. Sure looks like HTC screwed me over with this one.

In your experience with this, can you run it in a virtualbox? I can see my device, and it's recognized as it should within Ubuntu and Fedora (both virtual), but the .sh can't seem to locate my phone. Since it is pulling the correct code, I can assume it is not a hardware issue.
I'm sorry if you're not qualified to answer this question, but being new, it won't let me post in Dexter's thread.
