[Q] Need help: Unable to boot - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Need urgent help!!
I am new to Android Upgrade.. I am using Galaxy 3 gt-i5801. 2 days before when i connected my phone to laptop using samsung kies, it showed me that there is an upgrade available( froyo). I just thought of going for next android version and proceeded for the upgrade.. it went on well but my bad luck just before it completed, my laptop internet got disconnected and even after connecting internet it didnt proceed but failed..
soon after that, my Kies showed me the recovery console and i gave for recovery.. that too failed since my mobile was showing samsung logo but not the download mode..
so i just disconnected my phone and switched it off... now i am not able to boot my phone at all.,.
i tried all combinations like.., vol up,down,home,power etc.. nothing is working..
is this phone dead? as i can see in other threads that samsung service center guys will replace mother board n take 3000+ Rs for the same??
pls help me.. i dont want to spend so much for this now..! plss help me..
Thanks in advance!!

No ans even after one day
pls help me freinds !!
is there any way i can flash this using memory card?? my cell is not booting up at all

Does ur phone even shows the samsung logo?

No nothing.. i tried all the combinations but is not showing anything..

Maybe it hard bricked.
Try flashing stock rom manually via odin.
Do a google search for it.
Edit: connect ur phone to a pc without battery and try the button combos see if the pc detects ur phone.

Same Problem...
Same Problem here ... :crying:
After testing CyanogenMod 7.2 I flashed back to GT-I5800_XXJPU_XXJP4_OXXJPO_multi_xxx.7z via ODIN but after reboot I cannot switch on my I5800.
But maybe it's a hardware problem: About a week ago a line of (black) dead pixels appeared across the screen. :crying:

so no other way other than going to service center?

Well, i think u will be requiring a usb jig.Its a device which forces a samsung device into download mode even if its bricked.You can buy one online.
This is much cheaper than a new motherboard.Hopes it works.

where can i buy this? could you pls give me the link if you can?
edit:
I can see below lines in usbjig.com
Code:
If your phone screen is always black, turn it on and if it stays completely black, then sorry, but NO USB jig will help you.

well if that's true then you have to go for replacing ur motherboard.
but still if you wanna try you can buy one on ebay.

its available on ebay india.
i think that the one for s2 will work for galaxy 3 because they have similar micro usb socket.

You must use odin 4.38. I used odin 4.28 and the process just stop at MIBIB.
It´s Odin Multi Downloader 4.38 and stopped on MIBIB .. :/
Take it back to Samsung service center. don't tell them that you've flash your galaxy mini. Just tell them that the device suddenly unable to start.

Remove the battery
Plug in a usb to the mobile, with the pc/laptop ON
Now insert the battery when phone is connected to the usb
After certain flickering(may or may not occur), phone will switch on automatically.
Both the keys will now work.
this is not samsung galaxy mini forum...you must post this in correct place

Hello! Yesterday i tried to hard reset my phone then wanted to apply a custom rom, so i pressed volume up, home button and power key. The LG logo appeared and stayed there. Tried to remove battery and let the phone without it for the night. In the morning, the same sympthoms. Tried to flash with KDZ with a lot (when i say " a lot" i mean A LOT ) of firmwares or what are they called. From 2.1 to 2.3.3. Tried every options in the program. Phone won't start. The ANDROID logo appears but freezes there. I let it 30 minutes and nothing. Tried to flash with LGMDP. It's the same. Firmware is installed but the phone just won't start. If anyone could help me i would be grateful
Have you tried to install a recovery and flash a custom rom?
sometimes the most complicated problems have easy solutions
i finally managed to boot the phone with kdz
the custom rom i flashed is called "V20E_00.kdz"
after flashing, i pressed the home button+volume down and then the power button
after ~ 1 minute voila!
hope my post will help anyone with same problems
HardBrick ! Button not work , no thing work
My friend said , we can open phone , insert again fastboot .

You have only few options left.
1. If your phone in warranty then go to LG.
2. If you find any repairing shop, who can use JTAG.
As I got my phone repaired (P500 was in same condition as yours) through JTAG in just 800 inr.
Hi. I had the lg p500 but then I bricked it while using the kdz updater. My phone is out of warranty but I still went to lg service center. The told me it will take Rs 2000 to change the board but I know that a JTAG will fix it. I couldn't' find a place where I can JTAG the device so I am looking for some answers here. Can anyone please guide me to a repair shop near Kolkata? If it is outside, will it be safe to send my phone there via courier as I have seen in some ads from Delhi.

I recommend you forget the girl and move on because you screwed the phone like me. I went to LG service and abused them just for time pass. You can do the same.. Its FREE!!
else you can JTAG your phone which will cost you money or give it to service which will cost you money unless its in warranty

It is very hard to understand what your exact problem is, I can suggest a Galaxy III for an upgrade. As far as your current phone...
I;m sure someone out there has had a problem close to yours, try YouTube and Google searching as well as educating yourself here (XDA) on anything related to your phone or similar problems.
You might find the info. you need in an unrelated post or video! Check your pins to see if they are worn or possibly broken (connections). Ensure that you are getting a clean and solid connection.
Good luck

[Q] Samsung wave II bricked

Hi everyone!
A friend of mine found a samsung wave 2. Because it was locked with a password i tried to flash new firmware on it with multiloader.
It gave an error and now i can't get into download mode anymore, it appears on the screen for half a second and then the phone reboots.
I also can't charge it anymore because if i plug it in, the empty battery appears, and the phone reboots after 15 seconds. It doesn't seem to charge and i guess that's why i cant stay in download mode. Also it gets quite hot while charging...
Any ideas how to fix this? I've found numerous topics spread across the internet but none give a real solution :s
Thanks in advance.
Flash a stock firmware using Odin. That should help.
Press thanks if I've helped you
Sent from my GT-P5110 using XDA Premium HD app
No you didnt help, but i managed to charge the battery by wiring it to my galaxy s2, quite dangerous imo
but i succeeded and managed to get into download mode without rebooting, SOLVED

So... Looks like it's hard bricked ... So ... just go to an Authorised service centre, and Play Dumb. Just tell that suddenly your phone wouldn't turn on and that you donno what happened (don't tell about rooting or anything) .... So, depending on how well you acted and how dumb the service centre people are, you 'may' get a replacement under warranty ..
ndmicH perfectly

Hi guys!
same here! my note was charging and I've found it stucked in samsung logo without any reason. I've tried to install almost every version available of stock rom also from different country but no way. I can install also custom recovery but unfortunately I don't have any custom rom to try to install in my sd card. At the current time I really thinking to move to new note 10.1 2014...I'm afraid is some kinda hardware malfunctions. Any update from you guys with same issue?

Wow now I'm really start to think it is a Samsung and hardware issue I think these tablets weren't made to be usable for more than 2 years smh is anyone else with this issue running lollipop roms? Jc
The same here, My friend just conntect me, that SAMSUNG does not want to cover charges, due to bootloader says SYSTEM STATUS: custom.
And he never did anything with his tablet.
He got angry and Samsung check the hardware and they find that some chip is broken. But still don't want to fix it due to custom issue.
