does it boot up completely so that, you can use it?
or does it simply show the boot logo.
if its the latter, it is a normal thing from flashing kernels and roms.
so it mins its the kernel problem? and by the way when i turned off my phone and pressing power button it doesn't turn on rather when removing the battery and place it again it automatically boo up..just like plugging the charger..is there any chance than i can repair it by myself for not booting automatically so that i can enter recovery and downlaod mode?
my phone also completely boots when usb is plugged in without hitting power button and its a stock 2.2.2 rom. maybe theres some way to hack it to stop it if it bothers that much? i guess it would charge faster if it stayed off tho

Hmm, thats werid, its definietly a kernel problem, but I don't have your phone, ask in your kernel thread instead and see if you can change to another kernel. But it has nothing to do with the hardware and shouldn't be needed to bring your phone back to the service center.

Hi everyone,
I've got a BIG problem
I have a Galaxy Ace. A friend of mine played with it and Since then the phone is kinda dead
When I press the On/Off button, a series of vertical color bars appear on the screen (filling 2/3 of screen) [See attached]
Screen reduces the brightness in 5 secs
Then nothing happens and phone does not respond to any key combination
When I combine volume down with power buttons, the same thing happens although this time the phone camera flashes once!
Using the Volume up button gives me two flashes!
By the way, Odin recognize the phone on a COM port, but I don't know what I can do with that?
I also tried ADB REBOOT RECOVERY command in Android SDK as recommended by someone in here. It says DEVICE NOT FOUND
Does anyone have any idea how can I restore the phone to a normal state?
Appreciate your help

any Ideas? I'm very worried about the phone
Try holding homescreenbutton and on key. Recovery menu should turn up. Then perform a hard reset
I just bricked my ace today and there was no way I was able to fix it, the closest I got was getting the device into a 'connecting' state in the samsung kies software but didn't got any further, no screen no nothing..
Eventually I went back to the store and they replaced it without asking too many questions, I told them it died while doing a factory reset.

Yes looks like the ACE still got problems, my friend's ACE also hangs alot.
My problem is that I can't see anything on the scree (see pic above) I dpn't know what state the handset is in!!!
Any one has a link to a recent firmware for ACE that works?
Weird, don't know if the resistor trick that works on the Galaxy S could also apply on this model ?

Rom manager? If so your phone is dead. Do you honestly think selecting software meant for another device will work? Rom manager does not support the galaxy ace, yet. You've now ruined the partitions and so far noone has managed to get a successful unbrick. Make up a bull**** story and hope you get the phone fixed in warranty. Tata.

Keep the battery out for awhile and try again. If not, maybe invest in a jig (google it).

I am using a S3 HTC One S with stock 4.0.3 rom, rooted and unlocked bootloader. I was not carrying my charger with me and phone battery is finished to 0 and phone is closed. After I come home, I connect original charger to phone. Indication led is not flashing orange. I wait around half an hour. It does not flash now also. When I press power button around 7-8 seconds touch buttons blink 5-6 times and indication led begins flashing orange for 3-4 seconds and turns off. What should I do ?
Are you using CWM recovery? That's one fault with CWM, it will not charge the phone when off.
I am using TWRP. I entered recovery and reboot device from it. Problem solved but I still dont know problem.

how did you make it work? cuz i have the same problem... and since i cant charge it.. i dont think it has anymore battery left..
how do u go to recovery if you cant even open the damn phone?
Still orange led is not flashing, I kept my phone on charging. I pressed volume down and power buttons. It didnt open in first try. When I finally boot my phone normally it shows battery is 30%.
Phone is A3LSGH-T959V.. Will power on and start to boot into recovery mode, but will shut down and start that process over again.. What do I need to do to fix this phone??

Confirm the model of phone you have. If it is indeed a SGH T959V, use the guide in the second link of my signature.
It is confirmed that the phone is in fact the SGH-T959V.. I'm using a Windows 7 PC, and the phone won't stay powered on long enough for the system to load the drivers for it.. Any other suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated...

Could you provide more info on how the phone got stuck, were you trying to flash a new ROM. Lumins guide is excellent( it has gotten me out of multiple self induced boot loops) but after installing one click, windows will not show you, on the pull down, a samsung composite device. you will have to look through the different drives that are shown to determine which drive your phone is on.
If you can get into the recovery mode, have you simply tried reflasing

If when you say shut down you mean bootloop, you need to read the guide as it says to put the phone in download mode. If your battery is dead, I'm sure you can figure out what you need to do to charge your battery on your own.

First make sure the battery is charged as Lumin suggested. If the battery is charged then my bet would be that you have a stuck power button. Try this. Pull the battery and put it back in. If the phone powers on by itself then your power button is stuck.

Put in a brand new battery.. Phone is powering on by itself, but the power button doesn't feel like it's stuck.. Not saying it isn't stuck IJS.. It goes into recovery mode for a split second and resets.. Drivers won't load because the phone won't stay on long enough.. UGH!!
Definitely stuck

Without a doubt. Take the phone apart and clean the power button.

I did, and seems to be working fine.. EXCEPT when I try to charge it or plug it into the pc.. It goes back into the boot loop.. Thinking the charger port may be the culprit here..
So while trying to put on a new ROM (I've rommed and done custom recoveries and radios on this phone before) I had TWRP recovery on it and the ROM I was going to wanted CWM on it, so I flashed that and on battery it will show Samsung logo then go into a 2 second vibrate boot loop.
None of the button combos work. I ordered a jig on ebay and it flashes download mode for about a second before it flashes again and goes into the 2 second vibrate mode again. I tried to go from jig to Odin and it saw it for a split second, but disconnected/failed as soon as it started looping.
I read about the power button issue and the behavior matches, but I know I was the one that messed this thing up.
Is the JTag repair service my only option at this point?
I got an S4 so I'm just trying to get this revived to get rid of it so too expensive and I'll just sell it for parts.
thanks in advance for the help!

The reason I dismissed that was because I actually did it twice.the first time I was able to get into odin.
So of course the next time I did it, I told it to reboot into recovery and that was the last command I gave it. Since recovery is hosed I think that's why it's just looping.
I guess it could be the power button but I think because I hosed recovery, it's just not booting.
This phone has a separate recovery partition. So even if you hosed the recovery it would still boot. Theory here, like I said I've never seen anyone report a recovery bootloop. I think it's just a timing issue. Power button happened to get stuck when you where flashing something. The fact that it won't hold DL mode further leads to the simple solution.
You got a stuck power button.
Isn't the sop for this problem a battery pull? If you take the battery out and put it back in and the phone tries to turn on by itself(lights or vibration) then it's a faulty power button.

makes sense guys, that's what it does. Guess it just so happened to crap out right when I was messing with it. Thank you all, I'll head that route and see if I can get it revived.
It indeed revived with a take apart and some power button fiddling. Thank you all very much!
