Dead Moto X that revives every 3rd or 4th day - Moto X Q&A

Hello!
My sister had this smart phone but when she changed it she gave it to me, immediately after I received it I made a Factory Reset from the Settings menu and it went fine, no problem with it. The problem started after I turned it on and started downloading apps and configuring it, while apps were being installed i left the phone and when I came back the phone was completely dead, i tried a lot of things, charging it with the original charger, connecting it to the computer and car with the original usb cable. Nothing worked that day :crying: it was only after I waited for 3 days that i was able to turn it on after i charged it for a few minutes and since that day the phone revives for one day and then its dead for another 3 days (if i save it in my pocket it'll be dead almost immediately) I don't know if this is a SW or HW problem, so i'm here to ask if any of you've had this problem and if there was a solution in your case.
Thanks in advance

Have you tried a factory reset?

Is my phone dead ?

Hello,
After a few months without using my Touch Diamond (unlocked, as far as I remember the only "tweak" I did was a new radio rom), I've tried a few days ago to use it again.
Problem: I can't switch on.
Anything I try, (soft reset, hard reset) does nothing.
I plug it to charge the battery, nothing happen.
It worked well before. Is it bricked, or do you know another trick to swith on this phone ?
Thanks for your help.

Hi, welcome, sometimes when the battery is dead, you will not be able to switch the phone on, even when connected to the charger. Charge it for half an hour and try again. If it still does not switch on, then maybe you should contact a repair service.
Hello,
I've already tried to charge it one full night (even if the phone's button was not highlighting), and it changed nothing.
So my battery would be dead... At less, I know what's the problem, now.
Thank for your answer

Kaiser recovery

Hello,
i have a really bad week. First my PC crashed badly, then the HDD went corrupted, now my Tytn2 can't start.
Last night i was listening music before i went to sleep. This morning i woke from the vibration of the phone when restarting (when i softreset it vibrates). i didn't turn off the device when i went to sleep. it was on a charger. i quickly removed the battery. i waited 2-3minutes, then i placed the battery, turned it on, the same. it turns on for 2-3 seconds, then it softresets. i placed another battery, the same. i removed the sim and the memory card.... the same.
my question is: is there a way to extract my info (i have contacts in my phone memory)? then i will hard reset and i will re-flash.
Thanks!
I'm using Stylez rom with 1710801 radio
Well if you have sync your device before on another computer...you can have your contacts there.
Try again with another battery, seems like there is an issue with it.
i tried another battery, no change. i tried to hard reset it, but nothing happens... ?!?! i don't know why. i hard reseted my phone many times, but now it doesn't work. i tried to flash new rom (some times it boots successfully and works for 1-2minutes and then it resets) but in the middle of the process it resets again and now i don't have even OS on my phone...
Thanks!
edit: i managed to remove the battery, while on usb power (still on) and tried to flash, but the phone still resets. maybe its a electrical problem... i don't know what happened. it was only recharging.
What kind of " other " battery did you put in. This happened to me, I put in an extra , but still not new battery, and the same thing kept happening. After trying everything, I bought a brand new battery and it booted right up and has ran flawlessly for the last six months.
What kind of charger where you using? I used to see this all the time in the Wizard forums, people would use either over or underpowered chargers that would essentially break the phone. ALWAYS use the original OEM charger that outputs EXACTLY 1.0Amps. Don't use one that outputs more or less.
with a little luck i managed to flash new rom and new radio. for now its ok, its stable.
Thanks!
the other battery is 1600mAh Cameron Sino, and the charger is OEM.
Good to know that you solved your problem

Note 4 wont respond at all

Hey everyone,
I received the phone couple days ago and while its not new its in pretty good shape, i think. So when i started using the phone i noticed that there was a lot of lag waking it from sleep after extended times of inactivity so i decided to factory reset. The day after everything seemed fine with one incident where i left the phone for like 30min - 1hr and it took 10-15 min to wake up. The following morning i woke up and the phone lagged again for prob the same amount of time however the next morning i.e. today i wasn't getting anything after 30 min so waited another 30 min and realized something is wrong so i attempted the hard reset and other tricks (take out battery and hold power button[1min,2min or 3min], hold vol+/-, the home button and then the power button) but nothing happens on or off the charger, no LED, nothing....
Please help!

I suggest you return the device if you can.
Seems like Your device is hard bricked or maybe motherboard has some serious issues
Try connect to computer see if pc detects the device.
Try another battery maybe battery is dead
If you able to go into download mode then flash stock firmware with pit file.

Well, when i tried plugging it into the computer the only notification i get is the sound of the device being plugged in but the Note doesn't respond and nothing comes up on the computer.
As for another battery i dont know where i can get one to test it.
I cant go into download mode; the screen doesnt turn on, no led, nothing. Its like somebody poisoned the phone in its sleep, it is really bizarre for phone to die like this because you think u would see some signs

Phone is hard bricked and motherboard is almost dead.
You can still bring back to life if you able to find a debrick.image for your model in xda
Its complicated and need patients to do it
If you have enough knowledge then do it or otherwise you have to replace entire motherboard.

Mi5 Issue with phone/battery, brick every 2 weeks.

Hi,
I'm a Mi5 3/64 (black) user since 1 month, I bought it from Geekbuying.
Since 1 months the phone was hardbricked twice:
First time I left it overnight with 40% of battery and when I woke up in the morning the phone was dead, no life at all. I tried to charge it for couple of hours but it didn't help. Luckily I was able to flash MIUI through Miflash, so after that I was able to turn on my mobile and start again from zero. Terrible.
Second time it happened while I was charging my mobile. When it had 90% of battery I switched the mobile off. After one or two hours, still connected to charger I tried to turn it on but it was dead again. No life at all. I tried to charge it for couple of hours and nothing. So I left it and the next day I tried to turn it on by any chance and the red LED started to blink. Tried to charge for a while, but still without success. Connected to my laptop and it was visible in MiFlash, so I flashed latest Miui dev and now I can start again setting up my mobile.
What should I do now? Does it look like battery issue? I'm afraid that it will happen again after 2-3 weeks.
Somebody else had this issue? Did you ever return smth to Geekbuying and received item or refund back?
I wrote to Geekbuying and they just recommended me to flash this - https://goo.gl/jLBSsa I think it's bull****, just an old Miui ROM.
Thank you in advance for any help.
Was just going to restart the device and flash supersu binarys, tried to restart into recovery, eventually it died, couldnt boot it at all, doesnt respond while charging neither when plugging into the computer. I've no idea what happened but for me it feels like it was the battery failed. I was on lineage 170109 with brand kernel 3.3

Yes, so your issue is similar to mine. Terrible, no idea what's wrong with this phone and geekbuying support is terrible.
Use MiFlash to temporary make your device alive.

Using Mac but don't want to hassle, just bought a new battery from ebay instead and hope it will fix the problem.
On another community people told me that the main board is faulty, they say that it's the common issue in mi5.

Watch won't turn on even when in the cradle.

Hi, I decided to turn on my urbane 1st gen after 3 months. I used it for an entire day just fine, but the next day it wouldn’t stay on out of the cradle.
I did a factory reset but the problem persisted. Then I did a factory reset from the bootloader. I got the first time setup twice but now the watch won’t even turn on when sitting on the cradle.
Very rarely the LG logo appears but it shuts down quickly after. The computer does not recognize the watch at all. I tested the usb cable with my phone and it worked fine.
I’m thinking about replacing the battery, but I would like to know if there are others solutions for this problem I can try first. Thanks in advance.
I had the same problem.
One day it worked okay the next it stopped.
It only booted when it was on the cradle,but as soon I took it off it would go off.
I fixed it by buying a new battery and now it works again.
I payed around € 8 for the battery
Most probably needs a battery replacement. Same was happening with mine. Replaced and works normally so far..
