My Rog Phone 2 won't turn on - ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers

I was playing with the phone and out of nowhere it freezes, I tried to lock the screen but it did not react so I had to turn off the phone then I tried to turn it on but it did not turn on.
Thinking that the battery had run out, I left 1h charging through both ports (side and bottom) but it did not turn on the screen to charge. I left charging the phone for a whole night for several days but it won't turn on.
I tried with the help of internet guides, the volume keys + power button but did not get any response on the phone.
I also tried to connect the mobile to my pc and see if it recognizes the phone but does not emit any signal on the pc (sound or file explorer).
Hope you help me, thank you.

Im facing this right now... it was charging, 77% and puff...went off and no signal of life...
I tried all button combination, tried to charge with different cables and both usb-c ports.
when I plug the phone on the PC by the side port, it shows as qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008, on the usbview...and thats all...cant start recovery mode.
I opened it to check the motherboard, seems ok but Im not an expert nor a professional.
any suggestion? my country havent any support to the ROG series, unfortunaly.

Any update on this with your phones?
Mine is now facing the same issue.
5 days ago, Was at 92% unplugged, browsing news on chrome and suddenly freezes, restarts itself, and when the ROG logo comes up it was all pixely and looks bugged, then it shut itself down and cant turn back on since then. No response from button presses or charging. Let the battery drain for 2 days, plugged the charger in and the LED light blinks red really fast for a minute and still nothing. Let it sit on charging for a couple hours, still wont boot. When I hold Vol Down with power button for 30 secs while charging the red LED blinks once. Nothing else.

My xperia doesn't take the charge!

Hey, dunno if some one had the same problem but my xperia doesn't take the charge.
Its appened when the mobile has terminated all his battery, and know the charge is not accepted by the phone
help me please
Something perhaps similar happened to me, i ran my battery completely flat and then could not switch the phone on even when it was on the charger. So I left it on the charger for ~1 hour and then it switched on fine! The other possibility is that you battery is dead. Hope this helps!
Its not the first time its appened to me, and the first time i had the problem i try a lot of time to recharge it, take out the battery, replace it etc.. and its worked.
But in 2 days, my phone is off :/
My battery is not dead i know, but how to recharge it
I have 2 computers from which I load it with usb cable. For some reason Mac Pro doesn't load the damn phone but Macbook does.
Try switching your "power" source. And sometimes when the battery goes really flat it needs many hours to even boot when loading up. One time I really thought the damn thing was dead for sure... But it came back to life
When you press the power button there's a red light next to volume buttons indicating it doesn't have enough power yet to boot up. If there's no red light then it's not charging at all.

Just leave if plugged-in and it will charge. It takes some time before it will charge if it is fully drained.
Ok thanks for reply
Have no real solution, but have the red light near to the volume button, or in the top of the phone.
But the phone doesn't take the charge at all...
The red light gave the battery charge, only that... have it sometimes and sometimes havent it...
Help me please
2 day less my phone know..
Ok i dunno why but the phone weak UP !
NICE
Ir was connected to the cpu and i presszs the button and it weak up
omg this phone
(Sort of) got it.
I'm not really an xda developer but id do have an xperia.
The same problem occured to my device about three weeks ago. I've noticed that the phone would still charge in the computer, but not by the power net adapter. (it must be broke i guess)
Today i've locked myself out calling the battery flat. I couldnt get it on anymore. After a lot of hassle this was the solution for me:
1) Connect the phone to a computer. Don't try to turn it on! Leave it there for about 15 minutes.
2) Disconnect the phone and pull out the battery.
3) Hold down the "on" button while inserting the battery back.
-- It should turn on now
4) Release the on button and quickly connect it to your computer again.
Hope this helps.
I just remember the red led lit on at the on/off button and the red light disappeared after 5 mins or so and i left for breakfast while it was still in the charger and by the time im back from breakfast, it turned itself on and was charging up

Odd frozen issue

So I took my charger with me to class today because my phone was almost dead. As it was charging I began to fiddle with it ex: go on reddit . Suddenly The phone began to lag and the screen shut off. I unplugged it and began to hold down the power button.... Had it held down for about a minute and still no results. The charging light is stuck green even when off the charger and the navigation buttons are stuck on. When holding down the power button the navigation buttons would also flash as it normally does but im not getting any feedback from the device. Anyone have any solutions? I need my phone to be working asap. If there isnt any hope i may as well upgrade.
Little update: I let the battery die out and plugged it into the charger. After half hour it still wouldn't turn on. Several hours after that I found it on and running. Very strange....

green light in atrix hd mb886 i cant turn it on.

it all started two weeks ago
the atrix hd suddenly started close the firefox app,
three days ago it freezed and black screen, i tried press the power button but nothing!
it only came back when i connected the charger, the green led blinked two times and it powered up normally with the red motorola logo etc.
i was feeling that this phone was dying so for security i made one backup of important files less one that i forgot,and i am needing this file right now.
today i was checking my emails when it freezed and black screen, tried press power button and nothing.
charger ... nothing!
so i checked in the internet and saw the " special modes/special menus"
so i pressed power and vol down and entered in fastboot mode,and pressed power so the phone restarted.
but it freezed in the home screen.
repeat it all over again and i could use it normally.
again i was using my phone and black screen.
but this time the phone does not even enter in fastboot mode.
the only signal of "life" is the green led when i plug my charger or when i connect the usb cable in the pc,
in the linux the terminal cant recognize the phone with lsusb command.nothing appears.
i tried disconnect the battery for two minutes but nothing happend.
the last time it freezed it was with 23% of charge.
it is more than two hours in the charger but nothing happens.
i am using an eb40 battery,it was hardly used,lately it only could 6 hours of activity.
i think months ago when i used to use an pirate charger it damaged my phone doing the things worse now in the present , because the pirate charger provided more current than my atrix hd could take. so the touch became nuts /crazy detecting more touches than the real in ramdon places of the screen. happilly i found an old n900 charger and the problems ceased/stopped.
sometimes the green led blinks two times
sometimes the green led continues "solid" only stopping if i disconnect the charger
sometimes it only stops when i press power and vol down buttons and after continues when i finished press the power and vol down buttons.
observation:
i loose the screw that hold the battery because if the screw is tight not even the green led appears,so i think it could be an bad contact of battery.
so if someone have a tip of improvisation i would appreciate.
except the fact that i unlocked the operator this smartphone is virgin, i do not touched in the software(rooted or unlocked botloader )
this mb886 is an at&t one, i am not an american citizen so i could not ask an repair from at&t
as i said i am needing an file, so nothing about hard reset or things that could erase the memory.

[Q] sony xperia T10 wont turn on, flashes red

Hi.
so the thing is, that even some time before this happened my xperia T10 was restarting while not connected to the charger.
I couldnt use it daily because it just kept restarting whenever somebody called me or I used the mobile internet.
Few days ago I left my phone without charger for night and I believe it kept restarting over and over again.
When I woke up, I couldnt turn it on, when its not connected to the charger it simply flashes red 2 times and thats it, if connected it flashes still red light as long as I press power button.
I thought its the same problem like I had with a tablet long time ago and it would be enough to let it charge for 2 days or so.
its 3rd day now and everything is still the same.
What should I do?
I dont have an acces to PC or laptops since I dont have one.
Any advice?

I opened the case and took the battery off for few hours and then put it in again, and ofc i attached all the cables and such back again.
Now when i hold volume down button and power button the led turns green for 5 secs and then fades. Then whenever i push power button the red led flashes still light but it dissapears after 10-30 sec and comes up again after few seconds.
help...
I know this from my xperia T. I hold (in holder not in my hand) the power button for long time (about hour) with connected power cable. And after this time it starts work. Try that

[Q] Strange (hard?) brick

Hi,
After many years of enjoying this magnificent phone the disaster came.
The phone discharged overnight and switched off. In the morning I had to send some texts, so plugged the wall charger into USB socked (a weak one ~500mA), after few moments a charging icon appeared and stated that battery has 1%. Ok, I really had to send those messages: I've pressed the power button and phone started to boot.
Sony logo: OK, purple wave, OK...
After 10-20 seconds it suddenly switched of, red LED started to blink.
I thought: OK, system startup needs a lot of power, maybe a charger is too week to keep up.
So I left phone for few more minutes to charge, but without success.
That was the last time I saw screen was on.
Phone is a C6903, running on a stock, rooted 14.6.A.1.236 with the recent XZRecovery.
Bootloader has been unlocked.
For the moment I've tried everything but opening back and doing the testport-trick.
When I connect the power only red led blinks (I left the phone charging overnight, no change).
When I try to enter flash mode: nothing happens but red blinking light.
When I try to start phone nothing happens at all.
But there is still hope:
I connected the phone to 2A charger using a magnetic cable.
Then I've connected normal USB cable to my PC, strange thing started to happen:
When I pressed volume Up (even after few minutes of connecting power+usb) the phone suddenly jumped to fastboot mode (blue led, it was discovered by PC, fastboot terminal was functional)
When I press power button, phone vibrates for a second, then the led pattern changes to: 1s red followed by 0.1s green, then long red, then it repeats...
I'm still unable to enter any recovery nor flashmode...
I'd really appreciate any help, have you got any ideas left how can I revive my phone?

Hi, this just happened to me, my phone has been dead for over 4 weeks with just the red led blinking. i tried the test point thing with no success at that point I gave up but last week i decided to get a new genuine battery and it worked it booted up. Your battery is just completely dead thats why it won't boot up!

Thanks for the info! I've ordered a replacement battery already.
I'll open my phone today and measure all voltages. I'll keep you updated.
Good luck

Yup! That was it (at least I think so, I don't have new battery yet)
The Al part of positive battery terminal was broken: I have no idea why, maybe because of age, oxidation and high currents that were drained from this LiPo cell...
Anyway I've managed to temporarily join two broken Al parts, kernel and recovery booted successfully.
Now I need to wait for a replacement battery.
Phone is alive again, thanks tilakpatel for help!
But the magnetic cable trick might be useful in other hardbrick cases: just connect magnetic charger, connect normal USB cable to PC and hold volUp. Phone should be able to enter fastboot even with completely drained battery...
