What the hell did i do?

Okay, so i had Infused 2.3.0 (i think that was the number, it's the latest one anyway). I followed the instructions to the T. I had no issues.
About 3 or 4 days later i woke up and my phone had 1% battery. I sent a text, and then locked the phone. I came back to plug it in, and tried to see if it had any battery. None, it was dead. No biggie. I plug it in, and i get the circle loading thing. Then the battery symbol appears (charging). Then the phone goes black and the circle loading thing appears again. Then it keeps restarting. and going back to the circle loading thing. Over... and Over... Then i tried charging it for a while to see if the battery was just really low. No dice.
I put my girlfriends battery from her infuse 4g and it had 90%. Did the same thing. Circle loading thing, restart, circle loading thing, etc. Then i tried to put it into recovery. No dice, it would just keep restarting. Sometimes the Samsung logo would appear, and then it would just restart samsung, black screen, samsung, black screen, then eventually back to the circle.
I got it in red recovery ONCE, i was able to scroll down twice, and then the phone restarted. I couldn't get it back into red recovery.
I thought i had bricked my phone somehow. So i tried to use GTGs unbrick. I loaded it up fine (i'd done it with my girlfriends phone before to restore it to stock). It took me about 15 tries to get it into download mode. It was in download mode for long enough so that the program recognized it, and it started the download to restore it, then the phone turned off.
Now the phone won't even turn on. I can't put it in download mode, i can't put it into recovery, i can't get it to do ANYTHING.
What the hell did i do? What caused the original issue?

Does your phone still have warranty?

What the hell didn't you do.

Ok well first of all it is not Infused 2.3 it is 2.2.3. Anyway that is not the point, did you have juice defender installed? I do not think it could have done anything, but maybe. What is the latest app/tweak/anything you installed? Finally, have you tried holding both volume buttons and power button when trying to turn it on? This problem you are having seems extremely odd. Try plugging it in.

2.2.3, thanks. I was too lazy to look it up. No, I didn't have juice defender. I used Lookout, that's all.
The latest thing I installed was the 2.2.3 update for Infused. I updated Pandora, and that's all.
Yes, i've done that with the volume buttons.

Yes. Won't turn on.

Well, best thing you can do now is see what ATT can do about it. The worst that can happen is they say they can not do anything, which you then can keep trying the ultimate unbrick over again. This helped someone on an earlier thread.

Same thing happened to me. Take the battery out. Make sure USB cable is unplugged. Hold down both up and down volume buttons plug in USB into ur phone and PC and put battery back in. This will put you in download mode and it will stick do u can return to stock. Good luck

I'll try this again, but it didn't work last time. No matter what i did.
EDIT:
Tried again multiple times. It just won't turn on.

I think you have a hardware failure of some sort... Take it back to AT&T for warrany service.
You probably didn't do anything to it - just bad luck and coincidence.

I'm at att right now waiting. Ill let you know what I say and what happens.
What rom were you using?

They're replacing it. No questions asked. The phone wont turn on. So they said its a hardware failure
The guy was really nice. Didn't ask me if I did anything to it
He tried everything I did. Download mode. New battery. Nadda

got my replacement today. all is well. now to root

Bootloop, nothing works. Please help!!

I have been running Zeus Rom for months now and everything has been fine. Until today. I was just on my phone today and it cut off. Then it went into a boot loop. Won't go past the Samsung screen. I can't find any solution to get the phone into download mode. I have read everything. Switched computers, tried different ports and even switched usb cords. Even tried several combinations of buttons to no avail.
Here is what happens when I try to get into download mode:
I hold down up and down volume, insert battery and then plug in usb cord. I see a spinning wheel and empty battery sign. Then it cuts right back off and does it all over again. Could this be a battery issue or what?
My phone has been bricked before I fixed it with no problems. This has got me stumped. Something is preventing me from getting into download mode and keeping me in boot loop.

To get to download mode, be sure to plug in USB before putting the battery in, and keep holding down the volume buttons down for some time.
If the battery isn't showing a charge, though, then let it charge. If it isn't charging, try another cable, and then maybe a new battery.

Tried another battery I had, not fully charged, and the first time I put it in the bottom buttons lit up and the phone booted up, only to cut back off and do the same thing again with the boot loops. It too showed this battery to be completley dead. I am not sure if that is so or not as I have't used this battery in a while.
I am charging both batteries now to try to get them charged. I have one in a wall charger and hte other in the phone plugged into the wall. The one in the phone is still showing no charge as the phone keeps cutting on and off and showing the battery sign witha spinning circle.
I have no idea whats going on but need to find out soon!

You dont have to plug it in before puting the battery in...i never do...
How i get in download
1) pull battery
2) put battery back in
3) hold volume up + down simutaniously
4) while holding volume plug usb cord into phone
it sounds like he is pretty much doing it the way i do except for the volume he does before putting in battery...should work either way
Could it be a problem with your motherboard/mainboard whatever you wanna call it? When did you get the phone? If its been under a year i would file warranty with samsung...not att. If it is the mother board they probably will never even know its rooted or anything since it wont even turn on...and no software will fix it...
There still is a chance they will find out its rooted and has a custom rom on it...but i think the chances of that are highly unlikely...so i would go for warranty...

UPDATE:
This is so weird. After nothing working all day, I finally remembered something. About 15 mins before my phone started this today, I dropped my phone while getting out of my truck. I didn't think anything about because I have a double layer case on it. But this evening, I remembered that and I thought maybe that had somethign to do with it. So what else could I do? Bang the phone on the ground again. So I tapped it a few hard times on the ground and sure enough the lights on teh bottom on the phone came on and it booted up and has stayed up.
Apparently the drop this morning has done something inside the phone. Do you guys have any idea what this could be? What could dropping the phone have to do with a boot loop and what could be solved by banging it on the ground again?
Maybe it is luck, but it is working. I just feel it will happen again soon as something is wrong inside the phone.

Oh, okay, cool. I always do it how I described, so it must work either way. I was just trying to help the OP not go into the battery charging screen.
And to the OP: Bummer, it sounds like you have some busted hardware, but hopefully it will keep working now.

loose connection insider vs corrosion issue I mentioned to you earlier.
if you're under warranty, flash a stock package and warranty.
if you're not under warranty, learn how to drop your phone correctly.

Oh my god. the same thing happened to me last night. I've been searching all day trying to figure out how to fix it and I came across your post saying you just banged it on the ground a few times and it started working. I did the same thing and sure enough, it started working again! It's so weird. What I don't get is that I didn't drop my phone at all yesterday. It just did it randomly while i was texting.

[Q] Can't Power down my Shift

Its not Really a problem as the phone runs fine, but i was wondering if anyone else has seen this, it happens on every rom i have put in since root and downgrade, if i power it off it reboots normally
Also if i Pull the battery and put it back it Auto powers on

Is your power button maybe recessed or stuck? Could be causing it.
You can follow me on Twitter - @NotSo1nter3stin

If it means aything it feels fine and passes CWM button test just fine.. It still has that slight click to it
EDIT: Ok upon checking again, as i haven't actually tried in a while it dosen't straight reboot, it reboots to recovery/CWM, the only reason i want ti to power down it to do a full charge on the battery, now i have been told this is frivolous but hey my battery is old, got the Shift when it first came out and it still last two plus days on a charge

You get two days out of an original battery . I would be very happy about that. If what your saying is that when you power down, and then plug it in to charge it reboots into Recovery. Then that is normal, it happens a lot on rooted devices ( not all but a good portion ). As for your device just rebooting as soon as you stick the battery back in. I'm going to have to agree with notso on this and say something is wrong with your Power button. It should not be doing that. I had that happen on a Shift that had been dropped. Turned out the Power button was damaged. It was stuck half in. Which caused a bunch of weird things.

Well then I guess I cant complain, but yes I get more then 48 hours from a charge, I charge it over night every other night and try to deep charge it once a month, seeing as i cant use mine to do it I use my wifes, my Full charges consist of Complete discharge, Charge to 100%, power down and leave on charger for 1 hour, then power back up and leave on charge for another hour once in a while during the Full cycle clear bat stats

I am able to get 2 days out of the the 2000mah or the original battery with drob's latest kernel.
Actually, a brand new factory battery seems to hold up better than the 2000mah batteries we got.

It's a htc charging while off issue if it powers itself into recovery once your phone shuts off. You'll need to talk to koush about it because the older recoveries can power while off but the newer ones can't because the older method no longer works on the newer recovery source code.

BRICKED! Never thought it could happen to me

Well I think I finally bricked my Nexus S. What's weird is that it's been working fine. Had JellyBro 20120817 installed for the past few days with no issues. Last night I plugged my phone in to charge and went to bed. Woke up this morning and clicked the power on button to see what time it is and it showed just fine. 20 minutes later I went to check the time again and NOTHING. Pulled battery, tried every button combo, everything. My wife has a Nexus S also, so I tried her battery with the same results. No lights, vibrations, nothing. Plugged it into my computer to see if I could get any response and still nada. Tried Fastboot and device is not found. UGH. If anyone can give me any advice on what to try feel free to chime in. I've been around long enuff to realize that I'm pretty sure it's toast. Either way... it's been a nice run.

Take it off charge and pull the battery out. Let it sit for a while (1 hour at least) without the battery. Put your wife known working battery in and cross your fingers.

No it doesn't show as charging at all. Won't find device in adb, no lights, no vibration when trying to power on, nothing. It does get warm when the battery is in it tho. And it is discharging somehow, because I tried my battery in my wifes phone and it showed 33 % when I know it had a full charge before it died. GNex is on its way.

i just have had same problem days ago , unfortunately i tried all , even Odin , just non-responsive
i also tried that unbrickable tool run under Ubuntu , still no good ...

Same Problem here. It was working fine on jelly bean and rooted with clock work recovery. I removed the battery out to change the sim and now it wont power on, fastboot doesn't work and the USB JIG also doesn't work, doesn't show the charging animated when plugged in.
i tried AdamOutlers Resurector tool, it didnt detect the phone, so i made the hardware mod and now it detect the phone, but still dead after the tool loads the files. but when i choose GALAXY S from the drop down menu, the tool and the phone, both shows download mode, heimdall detect the phone but doesnt work as it is not a GALAXY S.

At least now you have a reason to upgrade. But that sure sucks, if you still want to revive it you could give this a shot... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ecp8jKmm48k

Three people with Nexus S's with Jelly Been roms just spontaneously get bricked phones? Just flashed mine to CM10 Nightly yesterday...
Hmmmm

I'm not sure if I would call mine a true bricking since most bricks happen directly from a rom flash. Mine was actually working fine for a couple of days after my last flash and then suddenly stopped working. It was an almost 2 year old phone and heavily abused internally with almost daily rom/kernel flashes and overclocking. I think maybe it just got tired LOL. Oh well...we have 2 other Nexus S's in our house, so now we have a decent parts phone since externally the phone is flawless.

Try cleaning your the phone's usb slot with a toothbrush and medical alcohol. also after removing your battery, try pressing the power button for 10 Secs(without battery) this cleans any extra charges in your phone. Gd luck!

Sounds more like hardware failure than bricking.

i read something that is problme of bootloader that messes with hummingbird CPU or something , i don't know
i had flashed the latest bootloader and 4.1 once it came out , but then i back to 4.0.4 and decided wait for AOKP JB.
and , my phone was also unable to power up after i pull out and change a new battery ! , first of all i was thinking battery's unstable output current damaged hardware or something , but now i am more convinced it should be the problem of bootloader as i read before

So...How did I brick my N5?

I am not inexperienced when it comes to ROMs, rooting, flashing, etc. Been doing it since my Droid X, X2, Gnex and now n5.
So pretty much I installed purity ROM and franco kernel. I was really tired when I was flashing it last night so as soon as I saw it boot up I let myself fall asleep. The last thing I saw was the setup screen asking me what language to select. I woke up this morning and tried to turn the screen on. nothing. held the power button for 10+ seconds then tried to boot again. Nothing. FYI the phone was fully charged last I saw. I have the heat on so it's kind of warm inside. I left it outside on the patio for about 20 minutes to cool down. Still gets nothing. No response what so ever. No vibration, the backlight of the display doesn't come on....nothing. I tried plugging it in the charger, nothing. The battery icon doesn't show up. The backlight doesn't come on. I left it on the charger for about 20+ minutes. Nothing. Plugging it into my computer does absolutely nothing. It doesn't show ANYTHING connected AT ALL. So no fastboot no adb (cant even get to recovery or bootloader) odin is out too. Literally 100% unresponsive.
Didn't think you could do that to a nexus honestly. Especially after all the hackery I did on the GNex. I didn't even do anything funny. Just flashed Purity + Franco (r14) I was waiting on r15.

Try charging it for a few hours (overnight).
I've seen this happen to a lot of people in the nexus 4 section.

Doesn't sound like it had anything to do with flashing anything, especially since you saw it go tot he language screen.
You've tried holding the volume keys while turning it on?
I honestly may have just been a faulty battery in the device. ran out of juice fast and now won't charge or power it.
I'd still try more holding power button remedies, etc.
Not sure that Odin would have ever helped you anyways considering this is not a Samsung phone.
Worst case RMA it through Google..

Yep its happened a few times with people with the nexus 4 too. The battery is at a decently high charge and suddenly it acts as if the battery is dead.
I have seen people fix it by charging the phone for a few hours though. Do you get an LED light when its plugged into the wall charger?

Why do insurance when you can just do warranty claim at the store? Just take it back to them (especially since it hasn't been 30 days yet) and replace the device.

Did you try plugging it into a car charger in your car?
For some reason that sometimes works. I don't know why, maybe higher amperage or something.
You should try it!

This happened with my Nexus 4, All I did was leave it charging and that worked after quite a bit. At the time I re flashed it back to stock, not sure if it helped or not but I never had the issue again.

OP, have you solve your problem? my nexus 5 just dead when I rebooted my phone. now, i does not have any idea to turn it back on again.

before reboot, i'm flashing the new bootloader and radio that come with 4.4.1.. i got those two zip somewhere in the xda. but i think there is no problem with twrp. now I cant go into fastboot mode or recovery mode. there is no response when pressing the power button + volume button.
