before my phone completely died, it randomly shut off a couple of times. when I turned it on, the battery said it was completely low and of course I had to put it in the charger. Now whenever I try to turn on the phone unplugged, it can't get passed the samsung logo. it just goes off and on intermittently. In fact it stays that way whenever the battery is in the phone. it will not just stay off. when plugged in, the battery sign flashes on and off and will not show progress of the battery being charged.
If you put the battery in without touching the power button, does the phone turn on?

Well, your power button is broken, then

I've been trying to reboot the phone to try to get into CWM so I can make a backup. But whenever I turn off the phone and then try to turn it on again it won't turn on. It eventually turns back on but after I pull the battery out and back again a few times.
Anyone else having a problem like this? And I'm sure the battery has had a charge before I powered off. Also is there anyway I can do a reboot or CWM with an app or something?
You know you have to hold the power button for a few seconds to turn it on, right? Not doubting you, just figured I'd put that out there just in case the solution to your problem could be that simple.

Haha yes, I've held it for much longer than a few seconds to no avail. I just keep removing and putting back in the battery and it eventually turns on. Could it be that I just have a bad battery?

Sounds much more like a bad power button to me. Do you have issues turning the screen on and off when your G2x is powered on?

When I was turning my phone on I accidentally had my other finger on the volume button and now it is stuck in download mode. I turned it off because it was saying it was plugged in via USB but it wasn't plugged in to anything. When I was trying to get it to turn on, a picture of the battery would pop up for a second but then it would just turn back off. The last time I tried to turn it on is when I accidentally had the volume button pressed too. Any ideas?
did you do a battery pull?

It said "do not turn off target." I just tried that and now it's back to just flashing a picture of the battery for a second and turning back off.
So you did pull battery?

Yes. I did see in another post with a similar situation that it worked for but mine's just back to flashing the battery picture.
I let my phone die completely and when I plugged the charger in, it finally turned back on but now when it's unplugged, it flashes " usb connected" and usb debugging connected" and the battery in the notification bar still moves like it's charging.

I had my phone charging tonight and it was at about 35% battery when all of a sudden it rebooted. Now, it's in a loop, vibrating every 1-2 seconds and when it's in the loop, the volume or power shortcuts don't work. If I take the battery out and back in, the Samsung logo flashes and then it goes into the loop. By inserting the battery and a USB connection at the same time, it'll go to to the battery charging screen for a moment before it goes into the loop, and if I hold the Volume up and down at the same time I put in the battery and plug in the phone, it'll go into download mode, but it only stays there for maybe five seconds before the screen flashes blue and goes into the vibrating loop again. Up until today it's been working perfectly. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated! I'm running SkyJelly with no previous issues. I think it's battery because if I plug in the phone without the battery it'll go into a loop until I plug the battery in, and then it'll go into the charging screen briefly until it goes back into its loop.

Nevermind. Tried the pin fix on the power button, worked like a charm. Thanks for the tip.
My samsung infuse is bricked. It will boot all the way up to the at&t logo screen, then keep booting the at&t screen. Now, I cannot even get the phone into the download mode; once in a while it will but only stays there for about 5 seconds then shuts off. I cannot get the phone to power up by pressing the power button or even allowing it to charge. Can someone help me to get the download mode to stay on and also to help me unbrick my phone please!
Edit: If I put it in download mode the screen says to download a custom os press up volume or down to cancel/reboot. If I press cancel it does not reboot, it only shuts off even when plugged into my computer; not even a charge. If I were to leave it alone when the message comes up, after 5 seconds or so the phone shuts off anyways. Is this phone finally done?? I am able to get it into download mode now just about every time I try..if that's a good sign or not idk.
Try and get the battery fully charged or use a charged battery if phone is not charging. Will shut off even plugged in if battery too low

You might be right actually because I just remembered my battery was a bit low before I began Unfortunately I do not have another battery and since I cannot get this one to charge. I will try what you mentioned and report back. Thanks!
My wife put her phone to charge as usual as soon as there were only 3% left and found it in an hour and a half turned off. now it does not turn on. What had happened? How to turn it on? I put it to charge some more, but nothing changes.
It was 100% stock recently updated to the latest FW via OTA.
What a hell???
What is the charge percentage?

It was 13% before we plugged it in... Now it does not show anything, I cant turn it on. I've tried to charge it a home for 3+ hours, but nothing changed.
First try holding down the power button for 2 seconds. Let go and count to 2 again and re-press the power button for like 30 seconds.

Try holding down the down volume button and power button for a few seconds at the same time and release it and check if u enter the bootloader menu.. If that works then press the Volume up button to confirm the normal power up...
I've tried all combinations, hold power, power + vol down, power + vol up, each up to 20 seconds. They were not able to turn it on in Verizon store as well. Luckily they just replaced it for me.
SO be careful with Droid minis...
Did they plug it in in the store?

They tried as hard as the can but none of them in Verizon store was able to turn it on.
And yes, they tried plugging it to the energy bank and to the wall outlet.
Hopefully by now you have a replacement.

Had a similar problem with my first maxx. After charging all night, unplugged phone and used it for 30 min. Picked it up, pressed power button and nothing. Plugged power cord to phone and moto icon would appear and disappear repeatedly. Plugged in moto factory cable from PC to phone and it booted up. Got a message saying phone would shut down in 10 sec. due to over heating. Either a bad battery causing problems or faulty circuitry.
Got a new phone overnighted.

I don't think you are supposed to be inserting the sim card while the phone is running.
