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,
