Question [Q] HTC Flyer wont turn on

I bought my HTC Flyer few months back. It works really well for me.

However, unfortunate things happen. I was restarting my Flyer when suddenly the power went off, screen blank. I held the power button, 2nd attempt with the volume up button; no go. I put it on charge, the LED did not turn on charging. I realised that when i held the power button for 10 secs, short red blink observed, but nothin happens.

I read bout how other HTC smartphones having the same problem. but they manage to restart it by pulling the battery off and put it on again. In flyer case, there's no way to do that, since the battery is well cased in Flyer.

anyone have the same problem? and solve it? appreciate your help guys. thanks.

btw, I love My Flyer.. huhu

hmm do you have adb setup? if so, try plugging the flyer into the computer, then type in "adb reboot" and see if that will turn it on. this happened to me on my phone once and doing that turned it back on

Hi Gumby63,

Its not working. it does not detect my device. I guess this must be an hardware issue..

are you positive you have adb setup correctly? that could be the problem but if it's not, i'm not sure what else there is you can try. maybe contact htc and see if they will repair it?

Have you tried a different charger or leaving the Flyer connected to a USB port on the computer for a couple hours to charge it? If the battery is not charging and its below 10% it will not turn on.
Days of free media are almost over as the biggies look for more revenue streaming from your wallet... ...Don't believe me? Take a look at all the flagship models now being sold WITHOUT microSD card slots.
