[Q] Won't charge? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Well, I used my phone about the whole day. The thing is, when it died, I got home to try and charge it, but it wouldn't. Everytime I take out the battery and put it in while it's plugged in, it just shows that it's dead. It won't start. Help, please?

When this happened to me the way I was able to get it to boot was plug it in for like 30mins then boot into recovery, then select reboot from that menu.

Alright, I see what you're saying. So you think the battery just kind of died? Maybe I'll just leave it on the charger for a little while.

Well you said it died so thats what I am going off. When it happened to me I was at 20% and the phone just shut off. Once you get it back up and running you should grab battery calibration from the play store and charge to 100% then run it.

Okay, cool.. yeah. Thing was, I used it the whole day. Then when it died.. I charged it to about 8%. After that, I didn't use it much and I used it till it died. Ever since then it's been happening. Hopefully it works with the 30 minutes. I'd really like for it to come back. I'm on Galaxy 14.1 just in case that might help.

not 100% but might be your kernel. so if your rooted try a different kernel
No never heard of that. Will observe if my phone did that later

My Palm Pixi always did the same thing, when I plugged it in with a dead battery.
One of my previous Evos did that. The screen would freeze completely and flicker - if sound was playing it would continue on whatever note was playing when it froze. It started doing this about once a day, then it did it all the time. It would freeze on the splashscreen so it would take 15-20 attempts to get it to boot fully, and then only run for about 15 minutes before it would do it again. Sometimes when it finally booted it would say that the battery was at 0% despite a full charge. I then started to notice that if I put it on the charger while it was off, it would turn on as soon as I took it off.
The phone wasn't rooted - it was a replacement I had just gotten - so I couldn't try flashing anything.
The techs at the Sprint store couldn't tell me what was wrong with it. If yours continues to get worse then I'd take it in for a replacement.

Sounds almost like mine, Except mine turns on when I'm plugging it in... I recently tried a new phone charger and it Still did it just Not as much so its kind of hard to determine if its actually the phone itself, or the Cheap chargers that I have?
Also Anyone know what Car mode is? It's been Enabling itself Without me actually physically doing it myself, and when I turn it off its right back on very next Reboot!
Oh yeah by the way...
Thanx for Everyones input!

[Q] Battery died one day and phone seems to have died with it. WTF!?!

I was away from home for 2 days and forgot my charger. Naturally the battery died.
I came home and charged the phone (plugged in the USB cable), left it for an hour or so and tried to turn it on. I got a "spinning" black and white wheel (which is actually frozen). Next comes the grey image of an empty battery which doesnt show charging (filling with green) even when the phone is plugged in. The home, back, etc. etc. buttons flash white for a moment and the phone turns off. Try again, same thing.
I thought maybe the USB wast connecting or charging so i took the battery out and charged it on an external charger which shows that it is full. Put it in, same thing.
Tried hard reset but cant complete it because samsung logo screen doesnt come on, only "empty battery" image.
Phone doesnt show up on my mac. etc. etc.
I am out of ideas...
btw no kind of water contact or dropping.
I really hope someone has another suggestion or can point me in the right direction.
Thanks for reading.
oops didnt read full post
Try going to att and use a charged battery there. Your battery may just be dead from over discharging.

thanks. i plugged it in and will let it sit for a while. i did try to turn it on as soon as i plugged it in and still saw the battery which didnt appear to be charging, but i know from previous experiance that when a phone is really dead the battery wont start it immediately even when plugged in.
thanks for the advice. my fingers are crossed
edit: ok. i'll try that also. if i can get away with just replacing the battery thats fine
this happened to me several times as well. My fix was easy.
Plug it in and forget about it for an hour. Unplug it, power it up, plug back in as soon as you see it start to boot. Should boot and charge.
I don't know why, but when its DEAD dead DEAD, it won't boot while its plugged in, nor will it show charging.
I hope that helps!

Thank you for the advice. I am happy to know someones dealt with this before and I am not the only one.
I just want to be sure. When you say that it starts to boot up, do you mean the samsung logo or the b/w wheel with empty (grey) battery image?
I tried to plug in the USB when the empty batt. was showing but it didnt seem to respond. Also I am wondering, when it finally connects do you still just let it charge or do you fully boot it up? Also does the battery show that it was keeping a charge from the first hour you left idle or does it only start to keep the charge after youve done this process?
Sorry for all the questions. This is just a bit for me....
update: OMG! just plugged it and instead of an empty batt. it was 90% green! phone still shut off again but i am very hopeful something is going on. I am going to keep messing around
update2: thank you so so much. This finally worked. saved me a considerable amount of money and untold grief. Basically I followed your directions in hyper mode. Power on, USB (in/out/in/out/in/out), phone shuts off, immediately power on again, etc., etc., until it worked.
Thank you.
FYI, a proper charger (instead of a PC's USB port) will cause the device to go into a higher-current charging mode that MIGHT have behaved better.
You can only charge your phone when its off on stock. Being in a rom it will reboot hence your frozen spinner and grey battery. Try it now that your battery is fully charged a d it will just reboot.
Sent from Optimus-Prime's Samsung Infuse 4G
just had the same problem tonight, but when I pulled out the battery it had a fried electronics smell in the battery
Same thing happened to me driving home from Thanksgiving break. I've come to the conclusion that if you flash a non Samsung from then you have to have the infuse on to charge. Even with a dead battery I managed to get the infuse on, then immediately shut the screen off for about 30 sec before proceeding to quickly turn setcpu into power save mode before shutting screen off and leaving it off for a few hours. Should veeerryyy slowly but surely charge (stupid samsung ..... takes forever to charge and there are times when the battery goes down in heavy CPU apps or when on 4g, I noe its safer that way but its not like I'm going to have that phone for the next 5 years)

So glad I found this. My wife's "Infused" Infuse was "acting weird" according to her. Said there was a weird "DOS" like screen for a second, then the dead/grey battery logo. Take bat out and put back in. Nothing. Plug in and start up and it either goes from the Samsung logo to off, and repeat that, or show the Dead/Grey battery thing again. Well, tried the turn on while unplugged, and immediately plug in, and it started up. Even said the batt was 96% charged! Really confusing. So are there any other ROMs usable on this thing? Infused is OK, but man, just not nearly as good as my N1 running CM7.
Thanx again for the tip!

everything in development is.... obviously. Also, do make sure your read everything first lol it can really help you and other people at the end.
I got the infuse for me and the wife in early December. After the initial charge she used hers for about a day and half then tried to charge it.
Nada.
Tried different USB cables, swapped batteries. Turned out the USB port died. Talk about a PIA!!!
Best buy swapped it out no problem and let me keep all the stuff in the old box.

Am I Screwed??? Please help.

I am running CleanROM 2.1 with the CleanKERNEL and AOSP Blue Mod Theme on my GS3. It is overclocked to 1.70Ghz .It has been working great for the past 3 days or so I have had it set up like this. I took the OTA before re-rooting and reunlocking and before ever putting any ROMs on the phone. I had the phone on my car charger on my way to work this morning, after draining a bunch of battry streaming F1 practice. When I got to work, I pull the phone off the charger and we inside. When I went to check my phone, it was black. And still is. The phone was working fine while on the charger, but now I can not get it to respond to anything. I have tried to reboot, reboot to recovery, pull the battery, and have it plugged in. The only thing happening is the phone becomes warm while plugged in.
I have no flashed anything for 3 days or so. I don't know what could have happened. Any thoughts?? Please help. I am kinda freaking out right now.

So you pulled the battery out, then put it back in. Then held volume up, the home button and then the power button?
What about Odin mode? Volume down, home button and the
power button?
Make sure to unplug the phone while doing this.

This happened to me a few times but with a slightly different scenario. If i tried to power up my phone, it would give a brief vibration and then show me a battery sign with a big 0 on it (green battery image). No matter what i did it wont boot up. And my battery wasn't at 0% when it happened. I was able to get into recovery and restore a backup.
In your case, check if there is any power in your battery (or borrow someone's who has an s3) and see if you are able to boot into recovery.
Hope you are able to fix it. Good Luck.

Then it might be your battery as the other person mentioned. The bettery is either bad or the device is not charging it. Have you tired different chargers as well? It can even be your charging port...
Odin mode and recovery have nothing to do with your ROM when you boot into them. If you boot into that, it boots before loading your Rom.
Go to the Verizon store and just ask if you can try their battery from the demo unti or something if you do not know anyone else with an S3.

There is guy coming in later today with a GS3, I will try his battery when he gets here. I know I was at 99% battery when I pulled it off my car charger. But, I suppose it is possible the battery is fried.
My bet is battery. Put it on the charger for 10 minutes.

USB or wall charger? Weird if it was at 99% though. And you definitely unplugged it when doing the battery pull and trying to get into recovery.

Don't want to sound like a broken record, but have you tried keeping your power button pressed for 5-10 seconds? Its weird but the brief vibration I got in my case was when I had it pressed for a good 5-7 seconds and then nothing would happen. Just checking if you have the same symptoms.

Yeah, I have held it for 1 minute+. I am really lost on what could have caused this. It seems to me, and my uneducated mind, it may be a hardware issue. I just don't know what or why.
I just got home from work, still with no luck. I guess if I can't get life into it, Verizon can't either?

This is kinda where I am at. I feel like it is a hardware problem more then a software problem aka not my fault.
So what was the final outcome on this?
This happened to me a few weeks ago. I had my GS3 for about a month. Everything was stock. Never rooted or unlocked.
Its a hardware issue.
If you return your phone to Verizon they will give you a refurb.
I believe the phone gets sent to Verizon not Samsung. Since I wasn't rooted it didn't matter for me, but since you can't even boot into ODIN at the store they won't be able to tell that your phone is rooted so they will order you a refurb straight away.
Its possible that when it gets to the Verizon testing facility they will discover that its been rooted and expect you to pay full price for the replacement. I have no idea.
Good Luck
Sorry for not updating. I ended up getting a replacement phone from Verizon. Looks like some other people are running into the same problem.

[Problem] HTC Inspire will not work at all HELP!!

Hey all, I just got through with this hurricane sandy business and now I find my phone not working at all. First off I'd like to say that there is no water damage to this phone and it is NOT rooted. The problem is that it just won't turn on at all, and won't charge when I try to charge the device. The day before I charged the phone and it worked fine. I can provide more details if needed but I need to find a solution to this.
Did it run down on battery completely before it did this? You might need to charge it for a bit before it turns on. Also, see if you can get your hands on a spare battery to see if it's the battery's problem. I would also try removing the battery and putting it back just to make sure it wasn't jostled loose.

Two days ago I completely let the battery drain on its own because it was draining faster than usual and I was using it very minimally due to the lack of phone signal during the power outage. And yesterday I charged it until it was 100% in the morning and at night I charged it again until 100%. Before I went to bed, I turned off my phone and it was 90% and when I turned it on in the morning it was at 77% (which I thought was weird since the phone was not even on). Now the phone will not work at all. I took the battery out and everything. I even tried turning the phone on while trying to charge it (but it would not charge). The only feedback I got was that it vibrated when I tried turning it on this afternoon and after that was nothing. (it would either get stuck at the AT&T bootup part or I would get no display at all)

Nothing I can think of. It was fully charged by 9PM the other night and shut off before I went to bed. Next morning the batter is nearly halfway drained for no apparent reason. I think I will get another battery to test.
Also I let the battery sit out of the phone for a few days now and the phone still does not work.

Get a hold of a charged battery, then after 1 hour with no battery in the device, replace the battery remove the SD-Card and the SIM-Card, replace all covers. Reboot your PC and go to firewall tab in the control panel and turn of your firewalls, then reboot your PC, then using USB data cable not a charging cable.. with your device being OFF conect to a USB connection in the back of your PC, if it's a laptop use the one next to the intranet connection. Then wait about 1min. If nothing happwned, hold the volume down button then press and release the power button. if nothing happened, hold the volume up then press and release the power button. If nothing happened do the samething this time by holding both up and down volume buttons. If nothing happened with your device connected to the PC go to MY Computer tab right click on C>Properties then go to tools click on check disc tab check mark both options then restart your PC. Before windows tour OS starts, your PC will go through a self check. let it do its thing. it takes a couple of hours. then after its down check to see if it has seen your device. if not then do procedures above once again. GOOD LUCK.

Okay so I finally got it to turn on but in order to charge it, the phone must be turned off for some reason. Also, the touch screen is not working, even after I did a hard reset and erased all my data. I'm not sure if it is a hardware issue or a software issue because the display is working fine.

That same thing happened to a friend of mine. She took it to a technician tho and they sorted it out for her.
Hello every one, this just my first post here, but I have been follow the forum very very close since some days ago thanks to Mustaavalkosta and his new CyanogenMod Rom here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2533007&page=283.
I am having a similar problem with my HTC Inspire, here is my story. I bought it like it a year ago, the first thing I do was to rooted with AAHK and install CyanoyenMod cm-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-ace. Everything works just fine till a couple of months ago. One night I just leave my Inspire and go to sleep, the next morning I wasn't able to turn on, not charging, not turn on. Was not the battery because my brother has another Inspire and I check with his battery. I just leave the phone without the battery and Sim and SD for a day and them come back again, but at next day the same occurs. I try all that time, vol down+power. voldown+volup, every convination but nothing works. So I decide to dissensambly my phone... in the process I broke the ribbon flex cable http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-HTC-Desire-HD-Inspire-4G-Camera-Socket-Keypad-Membrane-PBC-Ribbon-Flex-Cable-/320925341841?pt=US_Cell_Phone_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item4ab8a41891 The phone was in parts on my table like a month till I was able to buy and recieve the ribbon (I live in Colombia). Finally the ribbon arrives 3 days ago, so I assembled the phone again and...magic! the phone turns on. My next step was install the Mustaavalkosta Rom that I mentioned before.... but, yesterday, my phone was dead again. So a try all steps again, put out the battery, Sim and Sd... and again try all the combinations of buttons, but nothing works... So I do it again: dissensably again my phone: Only disconnecting the display doesn't works... I have to disconect the display and the ribbon cable, assembled again and just turn on again.... Now I am waiting for the next black out...
I know is a weird behavior, but may be some one can point me in some direction to fix it.. I am not a developer or anything like that, but I like to investigate and solve problems... any help will be wonderful.
Cheers!
PD: I dont have any apps installed, just trying the Rom as it is.
PD: The next time it happens I will try the niavaran advises.

[Q] Sensation not working

Hello,
I am an owner of HTC Sensation, rooted with Android Revolution 7.3.
My phone has ~1,5 years, since its first days i was using Android Revolution ROM, never had any problem.
Today, my phone first lost signal. Itcould not connect to any mobile network so I tried to restart it, when i got back to it after 5 minutes, the phone was stuck on beats audio logo and when i touched it, it felt very hot, it was never that hot even I used it for hours playing some games or browsing internet. (I think it was processor, down side of the phone, below battery, but because of that battery got a bit hotter too) I had to pull off the battery, I've waited till it got cold and tried to run again but rom was not working so i reflashed it from my sd card, after the next restart (phone did not get hot) when phone was checking installed apps, it simply turned itself off. Before battery showed around 80% charged, after reinstall 30% and it happened in max 10 minutes ,but after that shut down I could not turn it on. LED was not working, I tried pulling off battery, charging it, charging without abttery then connecting it, trying to reboot with abs but PC could not see the device.
The only thing I noticed, when i was trying tocharge it for the first time, processor was getting hotter but LED was not working, but then, it simply went cold.
I have no idea what I could do more here, it looks like hardware problem but te only thing i could not check was putting a new battery and try it then. Is there anything I can do more about it?
For any help, thank you.
PS: When the phone 'died' it was using faux123's 1,5 GHz kernel which came with the ROM. AsI said, before this event, everything was working perfectly, no sign of this incoming event. No restarts, freezes or crashes.
*If it matters, i was charging phone every 4-5 days, never let it go below 10%, bettery is from HTC EVO 1730mAh (original).
can you boot to the bootloader?
if yes do it and select from there reboot
see how it goes

Re-tried these methods, hoped I had done soemthing wrong before. I saw the artice before, was hoping there are different ways to revive the phone. Tried this, says device not found. Looks like the only method would be this JTAG box but it's a bit expensive or try to send it to repair.
Anyway thank you for your time, I appreciate it.
-And if I might ask, any idea why the phone heated up itself on nearly last startup as I mentioned in my thread? It would be allright if the phone just died before this event, now it just makes me think there might be bigger hardware problem which just caused the death and it's not worth repair.
