RESOLVED: 2-day old Pavilion 13 x360 won't turn back on after putting it to sleep...

Laptop's been great, I love it, used it for 2 days with no issues. Today, the battery was getting a bit low and I knew it'd be awhile before I needed it again, so I selected the SLEEP option as opposed to SHUT DOWN or just closing the lid. Got home, took a look at it, power button flashing slow blue, so I thought, ok, I'll wake it up and get back to work. First I "wiggled" the mouse, hit space a couple of times, then resulted to hitting the power button. Nothing. Power button stops flashing. Hmmmm. Dead battery? So I plugged it in, the amber charging light near the power port lit up, so then I try the power button again. Nothing-no flash, not a glimmer. Is there some "secret" way to wake this sucker up or did I just buy a $499.99 piece of landfill? This is NOT my experience with HP PC's-I love HP. But what's up here? Someone PLEASE HELP! I'm using my ancient HP Pavilion zv5000 XP dinosaur to write this!!
Kindest regards, and thanks for reading,
Rob
@rob_conder
EDIT: After about 30 mins. of charging, it gives me a black screen with CHECKSUM INVALID, RECOMMEND REBOOT-HIT ANY KEY TO BEGIN. So I GUESS I'm ok? SORRY for jumping the gun-new hardware scares me... love you guys!

Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...

My iPhone 4S won't turn back on after I do the reset

Somehow my iPhone won't charged and I decide to turn off but now I can't turn it back on again... I try everything but still not working...

Reset, hold both the Home and Power buttons for about 10 seconds until the iPhone begins to start. If still problem, and your decide to Restore your iPhone, try DFU Mode Restore. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB cable. Hold both Home and Power button, after exactly 10 seconds release the Power Button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode, usually about 20 seconds time.

Laptop screen won't turn back on after being waked up from pm-suspend

I installed pm-utils and acpid to make my laptop sleep when the lid is shut.
To do this I altered my /etc/acpi/handler.sh to look like this
http://pastebin.com/9DgQQ30Z
Changing lines 57, 58 and 59 to:
button/lid)
#echo "LID switched!">/dev/tty5
/usr/sbin/pm-suspend
esac
The laptop suspends completely fine, and the power light turns from a solid light to flashing. But when I open the lid, the laptop wakes up fine, except for the screen which just stays completely black.
I can't do anything to get it back on, I even can't switch to any virtual terminals, forcing me to to a hard reboot.
This happens also when I just run "sudo pm-suspend" normally with the lid open and use the power button to wake back up. Wakes up fine except for the screen.

First thing that would be helpful to know would be to know what kind of computer you have (e.g. model).
I actually had an identical problem with my laptop. It ended up being an issue with the wireless drivers included in the kernel. Ultimately had to blacklist them and install the ones from the vendor's website. Anyways, start with the model, and we can try to help you from there

Display won't turn back on after battery dies

I have a Macbook Pro Intel Core i7 and am running OSX 10.7.5
Everytime I am using my computer and the battery dies, the display will not turn on after I plug it in again. I have tried to wait until the computer has charged up a good amount, but when I wake the computer back up after dying, the macbook startup sound plays and the LED light shines bright as if it were on, but no display. I have also tried click and pressing different buttons on the keyboard to see if this would wake it up, but no success. I have had to do hard restarts everytime this happens because it is the only way to get my display working again.
Any help is appreiciated. Thanks!

I downloaded iOS8 on my iPod 5th generation the other day and its been completely fine and now all of a sudden my iPod has turned off and it won't turn back on, i have tried charging it but nothing is coming up, what should i do?

the other day when iOS8 came out i downloaded it onto my 5th generation iPod, it has been working perfectly fine since, now today when i left it for a couple of hours, it turned itself off and now it won't turn back on. i have tried charging it but nothing is happening. it's not out of charge because the little battery usually comes up when its charging, but the screen is completely black and nothing is happening. i have tried turning it on by both buttons and it won't work. i don't know whats wrong with it. i haven't topped it or anything, so I'm assuming its the new download as it seems to be effecting other peoples devices as well. what should i do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Turned off iphone 5 to preserve its battery and now it won't turn back on

Hello!
I've got my iPhone 5 16gb around 1 year now and today, i needed to preserve its battery life (97% remaining )so i turned it off. A few minutes in i needed to make a phone call but it won't turn back on. I've tried the recommended tips such as:
holding both home and lock screen button
DFU mode
Charging it
Nothing seems to work, i do not know whether the lock screen is broken or not or just whether its a battery or ios problem. Funny thing is that a few days before this incident, there was an 7.1.2 update so yeah idk. Please help. It will be a pain to buy another iPhone

Hey there iDopey,
It sounds like you are currently unable to turn on your iPhone on or it is on, but the screen is black. First determine if the unit is on but has a black screen with this:
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
If this is the case follow the last step in this post. If not, then move on to this section:
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
If that still does not resolve the issue:

MacBook Pro Mid 2014 shut off randomly and won't turn back on.

Hello,
My MacBook Pro(Mid 2014) won't turn back on. I was just typing up my essay and it just turned straight off and won't turn back on. It has happen several times before and all I had to do was press the buttons(SMC method) and the PVRAM thing and it would turn back on. But now it doesn't turn on at all. How do I fix this issue? I had went today to the Apple Store and had a appointment at 3:15-3:25 and I was late by 2 minutes, so they couldn't help me and offered me to come back at 5PM, but will busy so I asked for 5 Monday. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Back when it was operating it would shut off whenever I was using it at the random times. This is my first MacBook so I don't know if it's suppose to get Hot and loud sometimes when operating and then cool off afterwards if that helps out. It shutoff last week wednesday and doesn't turn on at all, but will charge to fully green though. Anyone got any suggestions? I do have a MacBook screwdriver to open it, so if anyone knows anything about the inside and how to resolve the issue it would be great. I don't know how to remove the battery so if you do know please tell me or some keyboard trick would be helpful! All my data is on this so I would like to solve before Apple erases my data.

Hello untech,
I see that it has been awhile since you have posted with us on the HP Forums. Please let me take a moment to say "Welcome Back".
I see that you are having an issue with the printer shutting it self off and not powering back on.
By chance do you have the printer power cable connected to a power bar/strip? If so, please try connecting the printers power cable directly to a wall outlet. Here is a document that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
The printer in the document is a LaserJet printer but this document is meant for HP products in general and only uses the LaserJet as an example.
I am also going to include a document for when The HP Printer Won't Turn On or Respond When the Power Button is Pressed.
If by chance the issue is not resolved after doing the steps outlined, I would then suggest calling HP's Technical Support to see about further options for you. If you are calling within North America, the number is 1-800-474-6836 and for all other regions, click here: click here.
Please feel free to write me back if you have any other questions.
I hope you have a great Monday.
