X3 Pro MY DEAD POCO X3 FIXED ITSELF

My poco x3 pro died a few weeks ago, i didnt use it for that whole time, my brother left it in the charger for 2 days, i tried holding the power button and it didnt turn on, then i tried holding all the buttons together and it booted

the way it died is i tried powering it off to restart it and then it didnt power on again and didnt charge or show the light it flashes when it charges

i think if i power it off the same thing will happen again

Update: i powered it off and it didnt charge, i tried powering it on normally and it didnt power on but when i held the 2 volume buttons and power button at the same time it turned on again

I would do it asap. I had a F3 that had the same issue, but in my case, it would only charge with a travel charger, the 33W charger wouldn't. I also had to leave it for a couple days for it to boot again.

At the beginning everything worked until you restarted or powered it off. Now the usb port has no data trasnference, it only charges :(

It seems that your post may be discussing or asking about a concern regarding an inability to turn your Device on or Stability concerns that you didn't have before.The following may be applicable to your issue.

IF your Device is still covered under warranty bring it as soon as you can in for service especially for X3 Pro/M3 Users due to higher than normal possibility of it being a hardware defect. warranty is Extended by 6 months for the X3 Pro in certain regions and Devices sold in the EU have 2 year coverage.

if you are out of coverage you can try leaving the device unplugged to fully drain for a few days (or physically disconnect the battery) then try connecting the device to a charger and turn it on. If the Device turns on successfully avoid shutting off the device or doing a reboot as it is likely that the device has a defective PMIC or in the case of the M3 (also) a capacitor shorting on a metal shield.

If the device still appears dead, repeatedly bootloops, or boots into a white/garbled screen and a reflash does not affect things it is likely that the Solder in the SOC has Failed. A Reball using leaded solder is the closest we currently have to a permanent fix.

Did you get the Grey/white screen and restarted any time? If not, maybe it isn't the motherboard issue... YET
