My phone just wont turn on anymore. The led does not turn on when charging. I'm rooted but it was running fine for months on the same rom. i thought it was battery but my friend has the same phone so we switched batteries and his phone worked fine with my battery but my phone was still the same with his. Not sure what else I can do. Any ideas?
Did you do anything to it recently? Flash a ROM, wipe, drop it anything? If not, I think your phone is just dead.

Try charging it from there and see? You could also try to use adb to reboot to recovery and see if that works.

check it out i flashed a rom right and it didnt want to boot into recovery so i took the battery out and it never turned on again????
Plug it in let it charge a bit. If the orange light blinks four times and turns off, then you need to do a battery swap.
If it charges then let it charge boot unto recovery and restore your backup. I hope you made a backup.
Which Rom were you flashing?

nothing comes on
Mate, you're really not helping yourself here. Can you please give a step-by-step of what you were trying to do and a bit more information as to what happened when it didn't go to plan?
e.g. I was trying to flash a new ROM. The ROM update completed successfully but upon rebooting it wouldn't turn on.
The above example gives a bit more insight as to the situation

Pop the battery out for about 10 minutes then put it back in and try charging the battery. Also try charging from a different power source like an AC adapter or via your computers USB port. If the battery light doesn't come on then your battery is most likely dead and you may need to find a replacement.

you said you didnt get any signal. dude you prolly didnt flashed the correct radios. some roms tells you witch radio you need before flashing the rom. not all the roms have the correct radios due of a lot of sensation worldwide. had you tried to go into fastboot at all by holding power and vol down at the same time.

Hi all,
My Samsung Galaxy phone is stuck on the Samsung boot up logo. I shut off the phone and it starts up again to the Samsung logo again. I am rooted but still had the stock rom and kernel.
I went to selections and wiped my cache and tried to format it like a new phone. The same thing still happens. I am not sure what else to do. Anyone know how to fix this?
Keep the instructions simple please, if you do know. (I'm a desperate noob)
Thanks for any help.
IF you ever did nandroid than just restore that otherwise.........
Hey first follow this steps to flash any rom. If you flash the rom properly than you can use any stock rom from dev section and use that.
OR
follow this step to go back to stock and it will unroot you.

Same Problem
My problem is that my Rogers SGSII LTE I727R, is stuck on the logo screen, which is flashing the boot screen. When I connect the USB (even after install of Kies and Odin), my PC does not see the device. I am really not sure what to do. I think I set the wrong phone ID when I installed recovery (I think I was supposed to use the T-Mobil SGSII setting), but I selected something else. I then tried to backup the existing ROM, and am now in this unending loop. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
Follow these steps it will help you go back to stock. ANd reroot your phone.

I did try the main process, but the problem seems to be that the my PC/Odin, don't see my phone. The USB drivers are installed, and I have the stock rom, but I can't seem to make the connection.

Try a different USB port. Avoid rear ports and hubs.
OK, i will try that on a different computer, as I have tried all of the available ports on my laptop. Any other thoughts?

Have you uninstalled kies? If not uninstall it from your PC. Put your phone in download mode and see if Odin can see the phone.

Try another USB port or another computer. If you can get the logo you are in a boot loop, the most common form of a soft brick. If you can get into download mode you should be able to fix it.

Another thought is to try turning off firewall and antivirus when using Odin. I've never had my firewall or antivirus block Odin but I've heard it can happen...
Can you get into download mode? Hold the two volume buttons down, then plug the usb cable into your phone, then you should be in download mode.
I cannot get into download mode. I just keep getting the flashing boot screen, with the corresponding vibration.

What he said. Pull the battery and put it back in. Hold volume up/down and plug in USB. Continue holding volume buttons until you see download mode. Careful not to press the power button during this process.

I like how u guys are really trying to help him. Let u guys know that on my first responce I gave him all the steps on how to go back to stock. So if he followed that and nothing happened than he should try USB jig if that don't work than its hard brick!!

Don't panic. If you're in a boot loop it's fixable. It's when you get nothing that you need to worry about a hard brick.
Try the button combo mentioned above to get into download mode. If that doesn't work, pull the battery again and try using just the volume down button button--I've heard people say this worked for them when they had a hard time.
If this doesn't get you into download mode, I guarantee you that a jig will work. You can buy one online or make one yourself for about 75 cents and a cut-up data cable (I had a car charger that I didn't need--car charges the phone through USB port, so I cut that one up). Always good to have a jig, at any rate...

Yup, when I rooted my phone, the only way I could get it into download was volume DOWN & power.

Not sure when it happened but I noticed it after I put a different ROM on. Flashed back to the other and nothing. I have tried every back up I have and still no go. It will charge but no usb access at all. If I could get it back to stock I would take it to sprint. Any ideas?

Boot in fastboot, then recovery, and mount your USB from CWM. When it's mounted, unplug and replug the USB cable to make sure it gets detected. If even then it doesn't work, something is fubared.
Hmmm... don't know anything about fastboot. How do I boot into that?

The same way you did when you rooted your phone.
Hi!
I had installed cyannogenmod 12.1 on my device and it worked, then I went on to install another kernel eXPerience and that made my wifi and usb port on the phone to stop working. It only connects via fastboot but I can't get it to charge. (Tried the reboot loop thing, it just depletes the battery.) If I do get it to charge, I could reflash a working recovery, format cyannogen and use it to push a backup i made on my PC via bluetooth (ADB doesn't work.) Solutions?
If it connects in bootloader mode then I think your phone should be charging simultaneously
If not try using different charger or cable.

Tried, it doesn't, powers off and won't boot afterwards (Only tried this with 2 cables, but somehow the battery magically gains a small amount of charge the next day.

So it seems either the battery is not working properly or the charging pin I is damaged recommend you to go to the mobile repairing shops.

It's cause I changed the kernel I think, I believe the hardware's fine
lost101 Yea I tried that too - in 2 whole days it got a small amount of charge enough to boot into fastboot but shuts off if I load the OS or recovery.

Did, but it's on my PC, and I can't transfer it(except via bluetooth, which will take really long). Battery's at 0% now so no.
I ve read that for someone work to turning it on in boot mode then plugging into computer
Every time I try it (no batt, up on vol) I get a missing battery sign.
When I try to do it with the battery and plugged in it shows up and I can assign ports but flashtool cannot see it!
Any ideas?
Do you have latest drivers installed?if not install them first.and always keep better in when flashing.

It's not really supposed to work with the battery out of the phone anyway.
You are using a USB 2.0 correct? USB 3.0 will not work.
What do you mean flashtool won't see it?
Your selecting the tot file clicking the yellow button and when it says ready you've unplugged and re plugged the device?

I'm using 2.0 usb.
How exactly do I get to download mode with battery in it?
Flashtool never gets a yellow go color. It just sits there. When I click go, it fails out.
