I installed a custom rom a few weeks back, and now am having problems with it.
When I attempt to turn it on, the boot animation won't even start before my phone decides to turn of and begin a constant vibration pattern.
I would connect to Odin and fix this, but when I load boot menu and the download screen, it does the same thing.
I was running Slimbean on android 4.0, then after having problems running that, I changed to Cyanogenmod. I then attempted to go back to stock because I was having problems with that too, and this is how I got to the problem I'm in.
Is there any way I can flash a rom without having to have the phone on? Anything I can do to fix this?
Thanks,

Hi,
I recently rooted my htc vivid and i tried to flash a rom. However, the rom didnt work and my phone isnt working. The phone's bottom touch-buttons vibrate when touched, but the screen remains off no matter what i do. What's wrong with it?
EDIT: I got it to boot, however, its stuck on booting, the boot logo just keeps on popping up. What should I do?
any luck?
sounds like you need to try and flash the rom again. this may or may not be a know issue with the rom. check the thread where you got the rom. I had to flash twice with the same rom the last time i did it (unrelated device)
May have to hold the buttons in a specific sequence to get back to the debug mode.
also have a look through this thread:

Hello folks, first post, hope you can help.
My phone has a very specific problem that happens with every rom BUT with AOKP.
When the phone is on idle it just gets stuck, black screen, button lights are on. Only thing to do is pull the battery out. It also happened with the stock rom, so I tried to unroot it and give it to sprint but they couldn't take it because of a small crack on the screen(been there forever).
I came back home and tried to flash it with a custom rom again, and recovery was broken, so I flashed recovery on the device 3 times before it started working again.
I randomly chose AOKP and it was working pretty well, although it slowed down lately a lot. I tried to install JB on it recently and the problem returned, so I tried CM9 again, CM10 even tried Bugless Beast, same thing. I keep going back to the backup I have of AOKP and it's the only one that doesn't crash my phone.
I've attached the phone information so you guys can see exactly which built I'm running.
Bump.
Please help me fix my phone, I'm really at loss how to solve this problem,
Do you turn deep idle on? If so that could be the problem......when u flash a new rom, as your setting everything up, make sure deep idle is turned off.....the option is under advanced in the cm roms .......hope that helps

Hi, I recently got a certified like new replacement VZW GS3 which freezes 10-15mins after the screen goes black while at the lock screen. To fix it at that point I have to pull the battery and turn the device on again. Buttons pressed while in this state do nothing, not even cause the menu keys to light up
Here is the sequence of events since taking it out of the box
Recieved it as 4.1.2 stock jellybean
Rooted, CWM Recovery, Unlocked bootloader - followed this guide - 29256-tutorial-rootrecoverybootloader-unlockicsjb-verizon-galaxy-s-iii on rootwiki (can't post links)
Clean flashed Cleanrom 6 RC2, noticed the lockscreen freeze issue
Flashed lean kernel to see if it was a kernel issue
Clean flashed Liquidsmooth 2.4 to see if it persisted on other roms, it did
Odined back to full stock - issue persisted
Accepted new update that was released today - issue persisted.
The issue does not appear to happen when plugged into the charger.
I am now preparing the phone to send back to Verizon, but I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions. Based on google searches it seems that it is a hardware issue because changing roms/kernels/ going back to stock did not fix it.
Hello I am searching for help. The problem is that my galaxy s2 i9100 stopped working properly. It started like this maybe I took out the battery or something I don't remember and then I turned it on the phone wouldn't boot. I thought maybe my android operation system got bricked so I decided to re flash it but as I can remember the phone wouldn't go in to download mode but some how I managed to reflash the firmware but then phone booted it just froze and then I pressed lock button the phone screen would go black and reboot. After installing cyanogen mode 11 the phone would boot and it could be used again until pressed the lock button it would go black and reboot so I have been reading forums and found problems like boot loop corrupted mmc or something else corrupted and I don't know what the real problem is because the symptoms are like boot loop or corrupted mmc or soft brick. I have already tried other kernels other android versions clock work mode

I have found that my emmc has the insane chip bug. The phone boots normally with cyanogen mode 11 but then it goes to sleep mode or I press the power button the screen goes black and the phone restarts. I have tried siyah kernel to try dual boot but then I flash siyah I cant get into recovery.
I think you should flash latest STOCK ROM with Odin, and then follow available custom rom instructions on xda...
Test if the stock rom will work for you, boot your phone etc... Try to use it a few days. If everything is OK, proceed with
further procedures...

I have already tried this but with the stock rom phone boots but at the section where I have to chose language I jus freezes stops working
So I think it is a hardware problem. Phone on stock rom shouldn't freeze on language selection. Something is wrong. If you are on warranty, let them fix it for you, if you are not, try to fix it in some phone repair point. I'm sure you can stop your attempts. It will not be better for now.

Take it straight away to the official service centre
I think have bricked my Infuse! This is what happened:
I have been flexing different custom rom on my infuse 4g and the last one I flashed was AEON v1.4SL rom (so lovely:good. Now, am trying to go back to stock and I flashed this "SGH-I997_I997UCLB3_UC_ATT" through Odin but my infuse will always boot into stock recovery but the problem was fixed by flashing this "GTGs_Ultimate_Unbrick" and another problem arose; the phone will boot, and some messages will come up saying "com.google... is not responding, force close(button), Twh Launcher is not responding, force close(button) and so many pop up like that. At the same time, the phone back light will goes off and come on again and again with the "force close" messages. I flashed different stock roms like "I997UCKI4" "GTGs_Ultimate_Unbrick " SGH-I997_I997UCLB3_UC_ATT" again and again thinking its gonna fix the problem but still the same. I also flashed "ODIN-Entropy_DD-GB-zImage" Red recovery on Gingerbread stock rom, flashed custom rom through the red recovery and the custom rom would never boot finish but vibrate (sign of booting almost done!) with a dim back light and remain there forever.
I just hope someone could help me!
Am so sorry the long story. Thanks in advance.
