Troubleshooting
No Power
Step Check point Result value Defect point
1 Confirm the defect symptom - -
2 * * Analyse reasons of No-Power using the
Power & Current test jig Power test mode.
PASS Battery, Battery terminal,
Physical Key
Leakage Current fail Go to the step 2.1
Power On Current fail Go to the step 3
2.1 Check the Resistance between JIG Power V_Battery / VPH_PWR/ V_BAT and Ground.
(C701,C805)
Normal (Over dozens of KΩ)Go to the step 5
Abnormal Capacitors for ESD protection
3 It’s possible to enter the download mode? Yes Go to the step 3.1
No Go to the step4
3.1 Check if it’s rooted. Rooted OOW
Normal S/W update
4 Try to do the boot recovery. Pass Go to the step 3
Fail Go to the step 5
5 Check the voltage of C5023(=IFPMIC Output) C5023 = Power supply voltage
Go to the step 6
If not the correct value Replace the U5003(=IFPMIC)
6 Check the voltage of C5006(=PMIC Output) C5006 = 1.8V Go to the step 7
If not the correct value Replace the U5004(=PMIC)
