LG Cosmos 2 Won't Power On After Update

Yesterday, I flew into Phoenix, AZ and upon turning on my phone, was asked to install an update. My phone was on a full battery, which I can usually last on for a few days unless I'm using it excessively. After getting to my apartment, I exchanged a few text messages and everything was working fine. But when I woke up this morning to the sound of my phone turning off, I was a little surprised since it was on a full battery. I went to turn it back on, got the "Verizon Wireless" screen, and then black. I thought the battery may have miraculously died, so I plugged it in -- still nothing. Also have tried removing the battery multiple times. Now, my phone is plugged in, and the Verizon Wireless screen is flashing on and off every 1-2 seconds.
This is a serious issue for me, especially the day after moving into a new place. I need this solved quickly.
Thanks,
Ben

    Ben,
This is not the experience I'd want you to have upon returning home, and especially not after just moving into your new home!  I would love to help!
I see you've already tried all of the troubleshooting steps I would have suggested.  When did you purchase this LG Cosmos 2?  Is it still in warranty or did you purchase the Extended Warranty coverage?  Does the device have any physical or liquid damages?  I would also recommend taking the device into one of our corporate store locations so they can test the battery and charger.  Here's a link for our store locator: http://bit.ly/TnUkMM.  Let me know so I can further assist.  Thanks!

    Hey laurelletoo,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    From what I gather, there’s an issue turning your iPhone 5 on after updating it. Take a look at the article below and try running through the suggestions that it provides.

  • My mbp won't power up after update.

    after running an app store update, (Xcode) my mbp won't power up and the battery lights are showing flat even though it was on charge over night.
    the update was taking a long time, and it had a message saying something like deleting old files.
    i went to bed and left it over night.
    when i went back this mornng it had powered down, and the drained the battery even though it was plugged in.
    now i can not power up, and i have tried the smc reset.
    please help.
    many thanks.

    This is the standard Apple support article for your situation.  If you cannot try another adapter to try, I suspect a trip to an Apple store genius bar is in your future.

  • Airport won't power up after updates 5.5.2 and 7.5.2

    I updated this afternoon via Software Update: Airport Utility (to v. 5.5.2) and Airport Extreme firmware (to v. 7.5.2). Everything seemed fine, noticed no problems and later I shut down my main computer for the day.
    When my wife came home later, she couldn't get an Airport connection on her MacBook Pro. In the process of troubleshooting, I went back to the Base Station and found it was off (no light at all). It simply won't power up at all. Unplugged it, replugged it, etc.
    Seems like too much of a coincidence that my unit would have just flat-out died after these updates.
    Anybody know what's up?

    Thanks Bob, I'm afraid you're right. I didn't know that a firmware update could fry hardware like this! It's just too much of a coincidence to be a... well, coincidence. (Especially now that I see all the other people having problems today after this update.)
    I've also reported the issue to Apple via the link you posted in another thread: http://www.apple.com/feedback/airportextreme.html

  • Macbook Air won't power up after update

    My son is on an internship in Alaska with his Macbook Air -- bringing the Macbook Air in to a "Genius" is not an option.
    His Macbook Air (about 2 years old) has been working perfectly, but then this morning Apple pushed an update so he downloaded and applied it and now his Macbook Air will not power on. At all.
    Is there a reset hole / button or anything he can do? Or is he just out of luck for the next several weeks until he comes back?
    I cannot tell you which release the Macbook Air is, given that he cannot power it up to see, but he, like all of us, is running the latest OSX.

    Thanks to Loner T and others in that thread I linked to above, my son's Macbook Air is now working again.
    Doing the following 3 times brought it back:
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected
    3. On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time
    4. Release all the keys and the power button at the same time
    5. Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

  • My ipad will not power on after update. I have tried connecting to computer which doesn't recognize it. I have pushed top and circle buttons at same time. It had a battery charge before it died.  I tried to stop the upload and am afraid it 'crashed'

    My first genteration ipad will not power on after update. I have tried connecting to the authorized computer which won't recognize it - does not acknowledge a device is plugged in. I have pushed top and circle buttons at same time. It had a battery charge before it died.  I tried to stop the upload midway and am afraid it 'crashed'

    Try putting it into recovery mode.
    Connect iPad to your computer via USB while it's turned on.
    Open iTunes
    Hold the iPad's Sleep/Wake switch (power button on the top of the iPad) down until the "power off" slider appears.
    Power off the iPad completely (wait for the progress spinner to disappear).
    Hold the Sleep/Wake switch AND the Home button down for a full 10 seconds.
    After 10 seconds (the second time you'll see the Apple logo on the screen) release the Sleep/Wake switch while still holding the Home button.
    Continue to hold the Home button for another 10 seconds until the USB connection image appears on the iPad's screen, then release the Home button.
    A pop-up message will appear on iTunes saying it has detected an iPad in recovery mode, you must restore...
    Click on the "Restore" button and the process will begin.

  • Aluminium iMac won't power up after shutdown

    Hello All,
    I have bought a 20" aluminium iMac for my parents a couple of weeks ago. It went extremely well in the first few days, but I got the complaint from my parents that it cannot power up after the proper shutdown.
    It is very strange that it won't power up after it has been shutdown for a couple of hours, unless I unplug the power cord and plug it back in after a minute or so (reset the SMC)
    Oppositely, I can power it up normally right after it has been shut down for a few minutes. But never overnight.
    I have tried everything I know about like reset SMC and PRAM, as well as running apple diagnostic. Symptom still persist (though the diagnostic says nothing wrong with my hardware)
    Is there anyone facing the same problem as me ?
    Thanks
    Jimmy

    Thanks Guys.
    I haven't called Applecare yet. However, I have reinstall the system and done a software update EXCEPT the latest imac software update v1.1 released recently.
    See if anything good happen tomorrow and will let you guys know
    by the way, it's really great that Mac retains everything including the Apps and Desktop setting after the reinstallation......... nothing has to reinstall except the OS itself

  • Mac OSx won't boot up after update to 10.6.7?

    Mac OSx won't boot up after update to 10.6.7?

    Hi Mike
    This is called a kernel panic, similar to s 'blue screen of death' on Windows. When you say you reinstalled 3 times, do you mean the OS or the Update?
    When does this kernel panic appear? You may have a hardware issue if it's happening on boot.

  • Q10 Won't Turn On After Update

    I am currently on Windows Phone and wanted to try Blackberry 10 as I am fan of my old Blackberry. I wanted to try it out cheap so I bought a Q10 on Ebay for $50 even though the seller said the phone had a water damaged sticker thinking I could fix it. I also bought a brand new battery from Amazon to go with it.
    So my issue is when I got the phone, it was having trouble connecting to Link and reloading the OS would fail due to connection loss, so I nuked the phone with a program to clear the phone. I also soaked the phone in isopropyl alcohol after reading that soaking it could get rid of mineral deposits on water damaged phones. After the nuke and clean, the phone does the two quick blinking red lights which (I think) means the phone has no OS on it which is what I wanted after the nuke.
    So, I plug the phone into the computer and Link recognizes it as a Q10. I have BB OS 10.2 downloaded and went to reload it. It completes the update all the way with a green LED on the whole time it is updating. When Link says to unplug the phone to let it reboot, the phone does nothing. Holding down power for any length of time can't turn on the phone. Plugging the phone into a wall charger causes the orange charging LED to flash on like it's going to start charging before quickly turning to a red LED while it stays plugged in.
    I nuked the phone and tried Autoloader which does the same thing in the end as the phone won't turn on when it unplugs from the computer after updating. Seeing as how the phone is recognized by Link, seems to update correctly with the green LED on, and can be nuked fine, is there any way I can get this phone to work? It seems as though the battery isn't charging because once I unplug from the computer / wall, nothing seems to do anything and the LED doesn't flash. It is a new battery, so could the water have caused an issue on the circuit board which is not letting the battery charge?
    Any help is appreciated, and I am willing to try pretty much anything and have decent knowledge of software / hardware. I have done tons of searching for similar issues to no success, but have not found this exact problem. Thanks in advance for any help!

    OK, you bought a new battery which I would recommend, and it still is NOT charging or powering on.
    You've done this already >> Make sure you let it charge with the wall outlet charger for several hours and then with it still connected to the wall outlet charger, remove the battery and reinsert... what happens?

  • Rand new iPhone 5s black, dead, won't power up after ios 7 upgrade...held down top button, held down home button...dead. Was fully charged, working fine tell said yes to upgrade. HELP!!!

    Brand new  iPhone 5s dead, black won't come on after ios update...is fully charged, was working fine till said yes to upgrade. Did not watch process beyond seeing Apple logo appear, left it alone, came back, dead. Tried holding top button, tried home button, nothing...HELP!!!

    If iTunes does not recognize your iPhone even if it’s plugged in, you may need to put it into DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode. If you have to put the device in DFU mode, you will most likely be unable to back it up.
    Hold Power button for 3 seconds and then the Power and Home together for 10 seconds (exactly).
    Release Power but keep holding home until the your iPhone shows up in iTunes.

  • Iphone won't power on after screen replacement

    So I've dropped my Iphone 4S once and screen showed blue vertical lines. I replaced the screen for about $120. After 6 months or so I dropped it again and the screen cracked. I decided to replace the screen on my own so I got a new one and replaced it, but the phone doesn't power on after the screen replacement. I plugged it on charger, did a hard reset but still nothing. I plugged it on pc and it was recognized by the itunes! As it was plugged on pc, I did a reboot again and it left itunes as if it was powered on and suddenly powered off. Still plugged in I tried to power it on again, it was recognized again by the itunes but the screen still wasn't working. Another thing is that it burns a lot without even being on charger or on pc, and I need to take the battery off.

    Sorry. There's not much we can suggest. Apple won't touch that phone now.
    Try looking for advice someplace like ifixit.com.

  • IPhone will not power on after update

    Dear Apple,
    I currently have your iPhone 3GS which I received approximately 18 months ago. However, after updating the OS Software the device has decided to not power on. After speaking to your Apple Support Centre, they booked me an appointment at Apple Bentall Centre, Kingston, London, UK.
    My device was looked at by a representative named Vanessa Baldwin who claimed that the device would not power on and that seeing as it is out of warranty, the only option I had was to replace it costing £139. I then asked to speak to the Store Manager Leigh Baigent, who reiterated Vanessa Baldwin's suggestion. He also added that the device would not power on due to a fault on the motherboard and had nothing to do with the battery. I proceeded to explain to your staff that I would expect a £400 iPhone to last longer than 18 months and that under The Sale of Goods Act 1979, a retailer is responsible for the items they sell for up to six years in England and Wales regardless of warranty. Your staff expressed a blank look towards me as if I spoke a foreign language and dismissed my claims.
    I am therefore making formal contact with Apple directly to sort the matter.
    Any help would be appreciated, please do not give me a story about warranty / insurance guidelines
    I look forward to your response.

    I would probably advise you to e-mail, or make contact by phone, rather than making a complaint on the Support communities page.
    I hope your lucky in succesfully getting a new iPhone however

  • PowerBuilder won't reactivate License after update

    Current;y have PowerBuilder Classic 12.5.2 build 5006 installed on a Windows 7 64bit machine.  This was licensed and activated properly.  Went to run the install again to add a missing database driver.  After updating, when I ran Powerbuilder, it came up as unlicensed.  I reapplied my license file with no success.  I then went to the SAP site and regenerated a new license key for my machine (based on my host id and computer name, which didn't change) and applied it.  Still won't activate.
    Has anybody ran into this issue and how was it solved?
    - - Shane - -

    Hi Shane;
      I have never seen this situation ever.
    What I would suggest though is
    a) Try this first ...
    Locate pb125_sysam.properties in C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Local\Sybase\PowerBuilder 12.5
    Right click on the file and select "Properties".
    Click on the "Previous Versions" tab. Wait a bit until the File Versions box is populated.
    Select a version from a restore point when you knew PB to be working OK and then click the RESTORE button.
    PB should start normally
    b) running a SySam trace ...

  • KT3v MS6712 System Won't power up after RAM upgrade

    hello this is my first posting to this forum and I hope someone might be able to help on this as I am totally stumped.  I have been running my KT3V MS6712 mobo with 256MB since it was built. The manual for this mobo says it can handle up to 3GB RAM in any order or size. I have 3 DIMM slots and thought it would be more cost effective to just
    purchase 1 DIMM leaving the other 2 slots free.  So I decided to  upgrade to 1GB and I bought a Kingston 1Gb PC2100 266MHz DIMM and installed it on my system.  Now my system won't power on at all. When I press the power button on the PC, the CPU fan spins for like 1-2 seconds then stops.  The system appears to be completely dead.  Cos I thought the problem was down to the new RAM installation I thought better put my old 256 DIMM back, however I still get the same problem. I have tried swopping both DIMMS into different slots but still doesn't work. The system was working fine until I did the RAM upgrade. I tried resetting the CMOS by moving the jumpers around in case it was a BIOS issue, still hasn't made a difference. Dunno if its the PSU which has suddenly gone, however seems strange. There are no beeps from the system or lights flashing to indicate anything.  I don't have
    the D-Bracket installed either. I have also never upgraded the BIOS on this system as it has always been stable. The CPU is not overclocked. Has anyone had this problem before after a RAM upgrade?  Hope I have given you enough information 

    Suntek is perhaps not the best of PSU makers, but a sudden collapse is not so common. You normally notice problems earlier.
    I took a big beating last time I said this , but it is important that there is no power in the system when changing memory sticks.
    It sounds a bit like the processor went away for holiday. Have you any data on the processor temperature? Is there any activity at all? Does the processor heat sink get warm?
