Hello Everyone, I have a Samsung Galaxy R, I bought it a week ago, I haven't rooted it, and have no intentions of rooting it in near future. 2 days ago, the phone suddenly got switched off, and wasn't booting up.. and after trying 3-4 times, the problem was still there.. Then yesterday, again, the same thing happened, and the phone did not boot back up again. Can you please tell me what can be the problem? I have loads of apps installed and really need help regarding this problem my phone is facing.
Thanks in advance!
It could be some hardware problem with your device. Do you still have the warranty?
Have you tried an hard rest to see if the problem will disappear? (you will lose all your data thus..)
Ya i have full warranty. I wanted to clarify one thing, this problem occurs only during the night. I am saying this because it has happened two nights in a row..

During the night? Do u charge your phone normally trough this period?
I still suggest to try an hard reset first, if nothing change, luckily, you still have the warranty.
I went to the service center, they re-installed the firmware, and now the phone is working fine.. I guess..
If it is connected to a charger during that time, it could be related to some over charging protection.
The Phone, connected to the charger or not, automatically switches off on its own. Today I went to the service centre again. they tried to re-install the firmware again, and came to a conclusion that the motherboard of the phone needs to be replaced. :'(
I am really disappointed!
Hey i also have the same problem with my samsung galaxy R i9103 . Earlier it was switching off and it only booted once i removed its battery and then placed it back again . But about a week back when i got up i found that the phone was switched off and didn't start no matter what i do . I took it to sevice center and they are now in the pocess of eplacing its mother board . Keep me updated about your phone.

Exactly my case! I will get the phone back, today. They have replaced the motherboard, lets see what happens now..
So, did u get your phone back, or is it in the service centre?

Since, Galaxy R was released to compete with LG Optimus 2X, now that LG have discontinued 2X, there is no reason for Samsung to compete at the same price point and subsequently have discontinued Galaxy R.
same problem
Same situation, hard reset procedure does nothing. Pressing volume up, power and home key. How long should you be sitting like that?

While re-installed the original ROM, entered into emergency-mode and crashed with an error (p = 500). The cell phone is dead and the screen stays black.
I apologize for my English .. help me ..!!!

i;ve read on a couple of other forums and more and more come up with phone dead error.

Hello, I do not know how to help you .. My LG phone is at the center-service .. from about 10 days.
umm.. I had a similar problem. My phone was rooted and I had tried ROM Manager & clockwork mod. After running RM, the phone restarted and after the LG screen, a black screen comes up with two code lines and then nothing happens. Man, that was an *oh sh*t* moment for me! Sat in front of this site for about 10 hours, no help! Finally, went to the LG Service Center today. They promised me a new phone within a week so I'm happy!
Basically, I advice you to go to the service center.
Good luck!
Man, this happened exactly to me.

Hi .. all under warranty?
But I have been more unlucky than you .. because I brought the phone to the service-center for about 10 days .. but the service center re-opens after the Epiphany (January 6, 2011) ..
and I'm not sure if I have adjusted, or not ...
Happy New Year to all

Hey.. Happy New Year to you too!
By the way, I'll be getting a new phone on the 6th of January only, at least I am hoping to get it by then. They said it would take about a week. Fingers Crossed! Take your phone to the service center as soon as it re-opens and just don't let them know that it was rooted. If they ask what happened then just say that you tried to upgrade to a newer firmware or something like that. And also, keep all the accessories (box and other stuff) ready with you!
I think I'll be doing the same too if I cant get it fixed by Monday. This sucks btw.
i had the same problem at start
yo phone is bricked!!
##solution
remove the battery
put it back
boot in emergency mode, i guess [(back or home)+(volume up)+(power)] hold all 3 buttons for some time bout 5-10 secs
connect yo data cable
open LG software updater[KDZ] -> used to update phones firmware
then select the kdz update file ->eg. v10b_00
thats it!!
didnt workout for me...it says phone not found

Works perfect....Thanks
Guys, i've seen alot of threads about boot looping and Randomized rebooting. i too am a victim of this error as well. it started one day withing the first week of april, when i left my phone on a table, then when i was going to get it, it was on the bootanimation.... so it was weird. the next encounter a day after, my phone did it again, but it was on my pocket at that time. it kept goint till 2 weeks later, i got my new laptop and now i can reflash to stock. when i flashed it, nothing happened the problem was still there. took me another 2 weeks to bring it to the service center since it was far from where i live. within the 2 weeks, the problem got worse. the phone said "usb storage unexpectedly unmounted then, poof. bootloop. i didnt see the go launcher's home anymore... aaaand ODIN no longer detects my phone when i plug it in... when i sent it to the service center they first thought it was just a software/firmware problem... but when the tried flashing to stock, they got an error. he said that it was a main board problem... so they'll need to take it in to change it...
i made this post so people can talk about the problems related to this. and when ever random reboots, and bootlooping happens and is not fixed by flashing to stock, then dont bother flashing it... BRING IT IMMEDIATELY TO THE SERVICE CENTER!!!
i see your from phil. what city you came from? me too im in bulacan. Where is the service centre of samsung here?

i wasnt convinced so i gave it to other svc, they tried a power ic and said phone started but then next day they demand rs 6500 for new motherboard,
phone has no os now, and doesnt start, so i cant flash stock fw and pit files

The track of Power IC in ur Galaxy R motherboard seems to be broken.
I think only trick is to check every track of IC & place the jumper.
NOTE : ONLY MOBILE EXPERTS CAN DO THIS!

Probably the problem is in cpu/gpu chip and its loosing contact with mb while heating. You can heat the motherboard in electric or gas stove for 6 minutes at 200-220 degree by Celsius. It could help but 50/50. At the end if you're phone is working before svc and after svc its completely not responding its not good at all, then it's should be repaired for free. If they do something that i described and something goes wrong, probably you never repair you're mb.

thank you guys, you've really helped me tho i couldn't get my phone to work, it was gonna cost lots and still it'd be giving same problems it did earlier, battery problems and irresponsive touch, so i decided to sat goodbye to galaxy r

hope your sgr's stay with you for long :angel:
this forum is amazing btw, never thought i'd get jellybean on my sgr lol, you're awesome

hello
i have a samsung s6 920f that i bought from samsung.
one day the bottom buttons stoped working (somtimes they did) and i gave it to samsung lab that said to me that the phone cannot be fixed and that they noticed the charging is not good also.
there was no problem with the network or signal before i gave to the lab and just got it back from them with the buttons not working and the lab said there are water damges etc.
after i got my s6 back i checked youtube and saw that the problem is with the charging and buttons moudle.
i got to anothe lab and they said that the fix could brake the screen because of the glue in the back of it so that the will not take the blame if they brake it.
so i got the parts and broke my screen myself while trying to replace the buttons
after i nroke my screen i took the device to a lab and they installed a new screen and buttons and charging port - now the buttons works well as well as charging - and the lab did not see water damge
the problem is that from that point the device has no network but it recognize the sim itself and whats on it. i cant search for networks or somthing like that.
i rooted the phone, i restarted it a few times i installed new rom old roms deleted imei restored it when i installed the original firmware, tryed differnt roms but nothing.
in all of the roms there is no network at all.
now the lab told me that they cannot find somthing but got another phone like mine that was "untoched" but same problem.
my phone havent been repaird and bought from samsung itself in israel.
does anybody knows a technical soloution to the problem (not go to samsung) or the phone and address samsung main lab in korea?
i have a new phone but i want to solve this.
i will mention that the antenna cable is attched and the sim works in my new phone and had tried the phone with a few sims.
for the s3 i saw somthing named ariza patch but it didnot worked on my device.
any ideas apart from not buying samsung phone again?
bump
got the phone back from the lab today
they gave up.
all good but the no service

how it started?
i am trying to understand what the problem is.
i flashed a new pit and 6/0/1 firmware but no change.
i have noticed that the signal strength is -113db in the phone. - dows it says somthing to you?
it cold be a reception unit in the phone? does anyone have clue about it? do you jave a link for the part?
it turned out that samsung dont deal with parts only with boards and its ashame.
anyone knows a lab that i can send the phone to that repair electronics and not just play with plug and play parts?
baseband is ok
fyi - i flashed new pit and original firmware to try if it's a software issue but nothing.
also custom firmware not working.

i want to downgrade from 6.0.1 but wuth no luck.
i noticed a bootloader problem on updates. and ! mark.
no chance to downgrade from 6.0.1 to 5.1.1 and even if you can what's the point?
i belive this problem came from certificates error and will not be solved by downgrading or upgrading software
