Plug in the charger and hold the camera button, volume up button and volume down button, then hold the power button. This will be like telling your phone the battery was just pulled and replaced and should re initiate charging
Thanks! - fixed my phone
Thanks Mate, I was worried there for a moment,
nothing else would get my phone to start - now though that is the ONLY thing that will start the phone!
if I power up and choose restart, it turns off and only camera+power turns it on
tried vol.down+power for fastboot, nothing happened, and camera+power wouldn't work after that, had to pull battery, then use camera+power.
now i'm worried again - is it hardware failing or recovery image problem (as hellescape claims) ?

...next time just press n hold the camera button then the power button too - should boot then

EDIT: Was having similar problems while trying to downgrade... Light wasn't on at all, panicked... Tried to finish tutorial, and it fixed the phone.

Thanks, this worked for me. Just holding the camera and pulling the battery did not.
couldnt be more correct
I had this issue a while back letting my phone be off the charger for too long. When the battery dies cause of overuse, the phone wont recognize that there is a battery in it cause there is no electricity running through the phone. You may have to find an external charger to charge you battery, or removing your battery for 10+ seconds should allow it to build up enough amps to push enough amperage through so the wall charger can reach the battery.

When I do the «adb reboot-bootloader» commands the computer don't find any devices, but my cell is plug but there's no orange light on the cell
And my phone won't turn on, charge or connect to pc and the volume - and power won't do nothing
Help me please!

I had the same problem, left it plugged in for awhile. Then I held the camera button like j4n87 suggested and it booted. Don't know if the 3d switch position makes a difference. Thanks for your help guys.
best answer!!
and yes .. 3d does effect .. u need to switch it to 2d > hold camera button > and press power button ..
cheers mate!
After my battery was empty and my phone turned off, I could not charge or restart it.
Then I tried this, and now it works-
But why does this happen? Is there any way to avoid that this happens again?
My phone is s-off, rooted and I use KingCobra3D-ICS 1.2 ROM

Your battery got to low I.believe idk if you have the 2.17firmware installed but one of the updates was supposed to stop it from doing that I think

1. take out battery
2. hold down the power button for 15sec with battery out.
3. place battery back in phone and put the back on.
4. try to turn on. If it doesn't turn on try a different charger (this worked for me a few times. this worke dfor me a few times i remember back on at&t when i had the slider windows phone htc 8250 i think it needed a charger with more amperage to start the charge.)
5. If the above doesn't work maybe take it in to sprint if you have the warranty.4Plug in the charger and hold the camera button, volume up button and volume down button, then hold the power button. This will be like telling your phone the battery was just pulled and replaced and should re initiate charging2Tuesday night, I was charging my phone and I left it alone for probably 30 minutes. I checked it, pressed the power button, and it didn't turn on! Today is day 3 of my phone not working. No, it is not rooted. My screen is cracked if that matters. It used to restart it a lot.
Yes, I've tried pulling the battery multiple times. Hard reset won't work either. I've tried volume down + power button, both volume buttons + power, even the camera button + power, charging with the computer, using different USB cords, and it still won't turn on. I took the battery and SD card out, waited 30 minutes.. put it back in, no luck.
Could it be a battery problem? Will a new battery fix it? Is it a hardware problem? If I need to replace it, could the Sprint store still retrieve my text messages and contacts? I hate not having a working phone and Christmas is coming up.1it WORKED!
It WORKED like a charm.
I have no words to thank you...
I LOVE YOU DUDE! hahahahaha:laugh:
