[Q] phone cant turn on - Samsung Infuse 4G

Yesterday i turn off my phone because i want to save my battery but today when i try to turn it on show me the screen of charging but when its off but I didnt put the chargin cable, so everytime i try to turn it on show me this screen but then turn off again. I successfully reflash again but always the same error. CAN ANYONE HELP ME???

I know that you said that the cable wasn't plugged in, so did you try charging the battery?
Perhaps a bad battery. Do you know someone with an Infuse who's battery you can use to test.
Or the biggie that everyone seems to be running into, a bad/stuck Power Button.

Does it show the charging symbol on the powered down phone when you plug the charger in? Maybe your power button is broken.
Make sure you are using the AC adaptor to charge and not a usb cable.
Nope, nothing atall :-(. The only indecation its doing anything is that the battery is getting warm.
Try this with both of your batteries, separately:
1. Remove battery from phone.
2. Wait for 5 minutes.
3. Put battery back in and connect to AC adapter (not usb)
4. Wait 5 minutes.
5. Press the power button.
6. Re-try 1-5 with the other battery.
Same thing happened to me... it seems the phone is not recognizing the power adapter.. ARGGHHHHHH
If anyone as fixed this, please let me know!!
You may want to give this tool a try, see if it does anything.

Hi, did you find a solution to this issue? my nexus S won't turn on.
It's getting warmer when plugged in, but it has no indicator of charging, nor is the power button working :S
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi
I would start a new thread since this is one year old....
But please give more information:
Are u rooted or stock?
If rooted, what recovery, what ROM, what was happening prior to issue.. etc.
The more info the better for readers to help give advice.
Good luck

Complete death, wont turn on

I get my hands on a Desire S, that refuses to turn on. Now the battery is charging in a another one, there are no problems with the battery. Any suggestions what to try? When the battery will be at 100 %, i try to turn on.
When phone is charging, is there the LED orange/green? You can try the following. Plug in the phone, and while is plugged in take out the battery and try to start it up without the battery (but still plugged). I know that there was something like this written in a topic, when someone adviced to turn the phone on, then take out the battery while it was booting and the phone will still run even if the battery is out. It could be something similar with some laptops that can start regardless of the presence of the battery
Ok i now tryed to turn it on, even with the cable, nothing. Seems there is some hardware damage. Seems i have to buy new mainboard. Anybody got for sale a desire S with damaged screen ?

[Q] Bricked --> Battery Drain

Hi all,
So my transformer is bricked... completely been trying hard reboot, APX mode, holding power button, HDMI output the list goes on.
My only final resort is what I've read is draining the battery down and trying to recharge it? (Just need some confirmation here please if possible).
I've kept it in the dock, what I've noticed is, in the morning it was green LED now its gone to the amber so something is draining the battery I"m hoping I can get this down to 0.
How long do you guys think with both dock + pad and most likely on standby. Not too sure of the issue here
Anyway, I'm really reluctant to send this back to Asus RMA because in short:
1. First time I sent it, it got returned like a squeaky box. Every where you held it you heard a creak like it was about to snap. They didn't fix some things, and more dust ended up in my camera lens... + had to pay postage..
2. Half fixed, came back with wrong firmware (TW --> US). Could never update ever again, so microsd card updates FTW. No way was I planning on spending an extra month sending my TF back and forth... I paid extra to get the first batch B40 lol.. They replaced everything inside my TF motherboard, screen, Inside LED!?, buttons. Close to the works..
This happened right after I upgraded to ICS, it was the US stock rom booted up fine. my apps were updating, and as everyone else was saying about how some apps caused ICS to slow down I wasn't aware so I thought I would shut it down and power it back up. Since then it's not been able to come up ever again... Any suggestions?
What do you think?
Thanks in advanced.
One other thing, could someone check.. when tablet is docked and OFF. Do the usb ports still work?
Right now, when docked but "bricked" I can still charge my phone via USB.. If someone could test this that would be much appreciated as that could at least eliminate that my TF's battery is dead, right?
get it off the dock, hold volup+pwr, count to six and leave it for a couple of days. You can test if it's empty when you plug it in your pc via the cable. If you get the device plugged sound it means there's still juice there - unplug and press again volup+pwr. when you unplug it from the pc the tab shuts itself down.
if you don't volup+pwr before you plug in the usb it won't turn itself on. but it turns off automatically at unplug, as I said.
after the battery is down, plug the tab to the charger. I don't have the dock so I can only speak about the tab itself. Don't know why, but it works for me everytime. Hope it fixes yours, then, if possible, root and flash something.

Hi there,
Thanks, I'll that a try.
It's definitely charging and discharging, the battery brick is warm.. I've never had to connect my tablet to a windows PC. Today I did, it didn't make a sound.. Do I need to fully charge to be able to turn it on?
Normally not. I plug mine to the charger, I don't remember if it stats or I have to press power, when it boots the battery stays at 0% for several minutes.
Sorry for the late reply, did you manage to wake it? It's a long procedure of waiting mainly and can get annoying.
I'm still trying, earlier you had a thread about it poping up through the computer. What was the command you used in Linux?
Windows gives me nothign even when there was power in it.
Thanks.
Thank you sooo much!! It finally has powered back on, I hope this doesn't happen again.

[Q] battery

My Samsung infuse 4g from at&t will not turn on while plugged in. One morning I plugged it in to start charging . Once it was finished I unplugged it and turned it off.... Now it won't turn on even when plugged in! Has my phone crashed? Or has the battery gone completely dead?
Try pulling battery out and putting it back in.
When you connect phone to charger, does it show up anything on screen after about 5-15 seconds?
Try plugging into the computer. Any luck?

Moto G turning off itself

It's a long history.
One day, my Moto G stop charging. He charge until 1%, then turn itself on, and when it was on, it wasn't charging. I thought that was a OS/software problem, but nothing was sloving. I send to warranty and there they send me back saying that a piece was oxidated and was my fault, so they can't help me. When the cellphone arrive back, it was charging normaly. I really doesn't understand. But my PC wasn't showing the smartphone when plugged in the USB port. I started to use AirDroid.
I have a little struggle to update to Android 4.4.2 but I did it. The smartphone was really weird, but I let it go. Now I have the most annoying problem. It keep turning off by itself. I don't know if is software/OS, hardware, some app, something I'm doing wrong, but it's driving me crazy.
Please guys, help =[
P.S.: Sorry my bad english.
I had same issue where it turned off on its own and wouldn't charge. I plug cable to wall charger and held power button for 1 minute nothing happened so I kept pressing power button repeatedly until it vibrated and started charging.

So, it's charging normally now, but it keeps turning off itself. Another annoying problems is that it turn itself on when I connect it in the USB port on my PC, but not when I plug on wall charger.
Sorry for the double post, but I'm don't know what to do anymore! Please, someone help me! Any ideas!
Try this
Plug it in
Hold power button for 2-3 mins
Leave it charging for an hour then unplug
Hold power button for 30 seconds it should vibrate and boot

I guess you missing the point: I CAN charge and I CAN turn it on. The problem is that the cellphone keeps turning itself off at random. Random time, in random activites.

Hi are you able to connect the phone to a PC? If so I would transfer important data and then do a factory reset to see if that solves your issue sounds more like a software problem to me.
Already did a Factory Reset (the one in Configuration, the one the Fastboot just normally boot the device) and the problem persist.
So no one can help me? =[

does the phone fades purple then goes crazy then shuts down for a while then turns back on?
It did it when I did something different, trying to turning on or recovery, I don't really remember. I remember that I freaked out, because the screen was black, without changing, than I did a reset (Power + Volume Up) and then it reseted.
You already try charging with wall charger? Maybe your PC don't have enough power to recharge this phone
I was able to charge the phone, Anyway, the device stopped to turning off alone. By itself. I didn't do anything different.
I'm so confused.
Something is shorting out inside, probably due to the said oxidation, which will most likely result in such behavior.
If you know how to do it, just open the phone, take the pcb out and clean it well with a dry contract cleaner and a hard toothbrush to remove any oxidation and possible residue.
Later I was thinking that could be it. So if anything goes wrong, I'll do it or ask to someone with a little more experience to do for me.
Thanks.

Some Moto G's do turn themselves ON when you plug in a charger, I have 2 and both do it - you connect the phone when it is turned OFF and then it turns itself on! Sometimes if I plug in the charger and turn OFF the phone quickly it stays off.
It's a bug / feature / quirk but it's unfortunately normal so you can discount that as being a problem related to your other problem.

I'm having this exact problem too. The phone is less than a month old. Twice this week its happened. Phone was close to fully charged on going to bed, I still checked some emails while it was plugged in.. the charging symbol was also on, so I know it was charging ok when I put it down... then in the morning, wake up, phone is off, but the battery display is showing 100% (The big one shown on screen when it is turned off)
Potentially if I was only using my phone as an alarm, I'd have not woken up. I always use a backup, but now this Moto G worries me!
Seems a few people are having this issue!
