I was on my way to work this morning with my vx6700 charging, and noticed about half way there that, not only was my screen was flashing black and white, but my camera's flash was flashing. Phone was not hot. I tried taking off the charger and soft resetting, but the reset button was un-responsive, along with any other hardware button, including the power button. I took the battery out for my 8 hr work-shift, and put it back in after I got out of work.. Powered on and same problem. Tried to hard reset unsuccessfully.. I'm stuck.. any idea how to fix this/what happened?

Ok guys, I'm in a predicament, I flashed the latest AOKP build 3 (clean flash) flashed IMOv.16 cache/dalvik/permissions and everything worked great. This was around 2pm. I spent the rest of the day just messing around with settings getting it how I liked it. even after several reboots. Now my battery dies around 11:45pm so I plug it up and it vibrates once, the charge screen shows for a second but the charging icon doesnt spin and then cuts off. tried it for about 30 minutes in the wall, 30 minutes from usb from computer, now its been in the wall for about an hour, if I unplug and plug it the phone does nothing, but if I pull the battery put it back in and plug it up to either power source the charge screen shows for about a second and then cuts off, but nothing happens after that any suggestions? has this happened to anyone else? what should I do?
Ok im not sure why that happened, but I fixed it. I pulled the battery, put it back in and instantly help VOL down + Home + Power and I got it tothe screen before Odin. So I was going to flash stock, but I figured if i can get into Odin I can get into recovery so I pressed down to restart phone instead of up to enter odin mode and it restarted and booted up, with a significant charge on it! Phew thought I had done something bad! :victory: My blood pressure is returning to normal now, but why did that happen in the first place? Will it happen again if my battery dies?

Outstanding work! My blood pressure is down now too.
Hello, I have a weird problem with my sensation, everything were working fine, until I fall asleep with my sensation in hands, I woke up next morning and my phone was off (it didn't fall on floor nothing, it was still in my bed) I thought battery drained out, so I attached charger to it, but no signs of charging, so I put my spare battery in, and phone turned on by itself, and after few seconds of turning on, all four soft touch buttons just started to flash with less then a seconds interval, but phone booted up, everything was working except power button, it just didn't respond, completely dead. I tried to do factory reset, cleared all cache + data + dalvik etc. but still got that problem with flashing soft touch buttons and power button. Does anyone have an idea how this two things can be related ? I mean if the power buttons is old enough and I am expecting that one day it will just die, then why the hell I got those weird soft touch buttons flashing ? I am lost, I did search about this but all I found was something similar, I guess software triggered problems, but this one looks hardcore. I tried few tips from information I found, but didn't help, I also didn't see anyone else having this kind of problem :/ if anyone have an idea, I would be more then thankful.
P.S
Phone is s-off (with wire trick) phone is also rooted and running Revelation 1.0.1 ROM
Thanks in advance.

Got a perculiar problem with the S6. The screen suddenly went black with just the blue LED blinking in the upper left hand corner of the sreen. I am assuming the phone went off completely as I cannot access it via the PC also. I have tried all possible button combinations for reset but no luck so far.
Anyone else experience this? Did you find a fix?

Well the phone is not off if the blue led light is blinking, I've never had it happen to me where the phone didn't come back though. I was using an app one day (YouTube I think) and the app crashed and bugged the phone out to where the screen went black but the led was blinking. I left the phone alone after several attempts of hitting home and power to get the screen to come back on and finally I think I plugged it into the charger and it kind of just fixed it self and has not happened again. This is the scary parts of not having a removable battery.

I've got the 128GB and yes I have experienced this as well, twice! I hold down both volume buttons the home button and the power button at the same time, this will put you in maintenance mode. It'll take a couple of seconds holding those buttons but just keep them pressed. Be careful because when it does come on it comes on fast and factory reset is the second selection in that mode. The first time I did it I wiped my phone, the second time it happened I lifted my fingers fast enough not to make a selection. Give that a try and see what happens.

Sounds like you have the same problem as stated in OP. You could try doing what was recommended earlier in the thread. By the way, this is an inappropriate location to put your problem. Read the forum rules
Never rooted.
I am having the same issue. I have tried everything. Factory reset. Reboot/wiped cache and even trying to install verizon's Fireware again as it come only up to the Samsung S6 logo then goes blank. This is now my 4th replacement with Verizon and getting sick of it. How do I fix this? Odin stops at Get Pit mapping then when I do that says it can not install NAND. Using Odin 3.10.6 and 3.10.7. Tried mutli cables and restarted computer as well. This is driving me insane these phones keep doing this.
same problem except nothing comes on. no led, no reset, no computer recognition...
Same issue. Boots into and displays recovery fine and download mode. I can also bring up the safe mode menu ... just can't boot into the OS. Blue light on. I get a response in ADB when powered on, just can't enter any commands due to not being able to authorize access via phone screen.
Update:
Well as strange as it sounds, as soon as I plopped it down on the wireless charger for my S7 the screen came to life. It was at 95% battery prior to. Whatever gremlins got into the gizmos within the wireless charging apparatus seems to have caused this strange occurrence.
Before you say "turn it off by holding the power button" I tried, like 6 or 7 times, maybe more. One of the times, I even had it resting on the power button, pushed down by a weight for over 20 minutes. I am thinking of just letting the battery die out, but I was wondering if there was anything else to do. Especially given it's at 50%-ish, and I don't want an image burned on the screen.
Power button alone won't be enough for a total lock up. A hard reset should do it, edit: it's power + vol down for 7+ seconds.
If it freezes again when I turn it back on, then I will try that. It died though, so hopefully that should help. Thank you though.

Flash stock rom again
Hello all,
on friday night my Samsung S6 Duos just died and it seems I'm not able to revive it...
it was running out of charge (was at 5-10% battery)...then suddenly the screen went black and the red led was blinking every second or so...
I thought it was just hung like it happened sometimes, so I tried to reset it pressing vol down+power or home+power buttons, but nothing happened....screen still black and red led flashing....
so I thought it was some kind of battery problem...tried to recharge but nothing changed...no battery icon on screen and red led flashing (not solid as when it is charging...)...
so, since battery cannot be pulled off I waited till complete discharge hoping that would reset it....waited till led was not flashing anymore, then I tried to recharge but nothing is happening....led not becoming red as when it's charing, nor display is showing battery charging....
actually nothing happens, I've tried to leave it charging several hours, both with power cord and with wireless charget, but it just doesn't charge and doesn't power up anymore...also tried to connect it to PC but nothing happens...
do you think that opening it and trying to disconnect and reconnect battery could solve? or maybe changing battery?
or is it probably a fault in the motherboard?
I just want to recover photos and other data saved on its memory but if it's motherborard issue I think everything's lost...right? 'cause memory chips are on it...or am I wrong?
thanks for any hints or suggestions on how to recover if possible...
