[Q] Samsung Galaxy Ace not coming up

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.

P3110 stuck at Samsung logo, think it´s hard bricked

Hey Guys! Can you help me? Sorry for my bad english...
When I power on my tablet normally, it gets stuck at Samsung bootlogo, then reboots on bootloop.
When I press Vol + and Power button to acess Revovery Mode, the same thing happens
But if I try to get into download mode, pressing Vol - and power button, it pases Samsung logo but nothing appears on the screen
Charging icon appears normally, but when connected to PC, my tablet is recognized as GT-19100G! I´m sure nothing about GS2 was flashed to this tablet!
I´m not a specialist, so if someone could explain me in a simple way, it´ll be very helpfull !

Turn it off, and boot on download mode.
Then root and flash the system again.

what rom are you using?
i thinks it´s nothing bad beccause of the "GT-9100G", if you are using an older custom rom it could be because of a type wich got fixed ~ 6 Month ago https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/cb1c0315e65d3cdd4e9d799435edc400f2a60afc
Can you please tell what you have done before you got the bootloop?

flashed anything to your device before you faced that issue? a recovery?

Bootloop, Mi logo doesnt even show up

I've tried to install new system in my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 MTK.
From the system that I downloaded (I downloaded the correct version) I picked in TWRP to install from boot.img.
Unfortunately the system didnt boot but I could still enter recovery or fastboot.
Then I chose preloader.img and clicked reboot because I thought that at the worst case I'd jsut enter fastboot and fix it.
After this the screen doesnt lit up at all.
The only response is the vibration.
It keeps rebooting over and over again.
Is there any way to save it?
It seems to stop bootlooping when I hold all the buttons at once for a while but when I hold the power button the bootloop starts again.

Re-flash Stock ROM

Is it possible in my situation when I can't access recovery and fastboot?
Can you please tell how can I do that?

Have you tried: With phone off, hold volume up, and insert usb cable. This should turn the phone on and go into download mode or something like that.

I believe its called the fastboot mode and as I said I unfortunately can't go there :/

Yes, we are talking about Mi logo stuck problem during boot. ... OR mobile goes in bootloop where every time shows Mi logo on the screen and shut House Cleaning Services Dubai

While installing your stock rom for your mediatek phone using sp flash tool just click the format all + downlaod option. This may blank out your imei and personal phone specific info

guys plz, you're talking like if I had any access to my phone.
I think I wrote it quite clearly that the only response that I get are vibrations and I dont see Mi logo. It's on for like a split second. Can't go to fastboot or recovery.
I talked about it with a guy on discord and it's loading preloader before boot that should go first so it can't be helped without valid tools. Makes sense to me, already bought a new phone.

Bricked S7

Hi, so i was trying to install the stock rom on my s7 that was running android 9 (and the power button is not working by the way, it was just pressed).
by doing this it removed the twrp recovery that i needed for going in download because if i have the button pressed and i go in download mode it cant click volume up to continue.
when it rebooted from the flashing it started to load the samsung logo for aroud 10 minutes, then it started saying that it was optimizing 39 apps but when it got on 39, the phone didnt reboot but reloaded the boot animation and with the led blue, it still done the same thing. so i just get the phone and reboot to recovery but something strange was happening, the blue led was still there.
after litteraly wait like all day to wait for this phone to turn off i turned it back on and the phone rebooted on recovery and it didnt want to boot to android. now i'm stuck with my phone that can go on dowload mode and recovery only and from the recovery it says on my pc that the phone/device its not reconized and i cant go anyway in download mode, only the triangle and adb does not work.
Anyone that can help me? i just need to go on download mode

Please help.........
​

I tried to make root my a30s and after i used odin i got this error with the patched firmware: Verifying VBMeta Image OK_NOT_SIGNED(3), and i saw a video with a solution that was installing twrp but that process destroy the android boot like i am showing in this video:
After the black screen the phone appears in windows, and you can see the internat storage and sd card but i dont know if there is a solution for this problem.
If somebody knows how to fix this, it will be awesome. Thanks for the attention.
​

you have to install twrp on your phone with Android 10, cause with android 11 doesnt work

Im stuck in that problem. I flashed twrp and after it my A30s only turn on if I press volume down + power, and then show the logo and got a black screen. In my computer open the internal storage. I cant acess recovery mode and download mode, I dont know what to do and idk if the a30s has bricked

Exactly the same happened to me and I can't access recovery nor download mode, same model aswell. It's probably bricked but we can still turn it on and the pc reads the storage even tho is encrypted or corrupted. I'll see if I can find any solution and I'll tell you. We f*cked up big time....
If you have the same problem get to work and let's try to fix it lol

I JUST F**CKING FIXED IT LIKE WHAT IN THE ACTUAL JESUS FRICKING CHRIST F**CK HAHAHHAHA LIKE I JUST SAID TO MYSELF "oh.... would that actually work?" GUESS WHAT IT WORKED FIRST TRY LMFAOOO
I guess you want to know how to unbrick it lol, here's how + ur welcome
Press down vol- + power until it powers on and keep on holding down, as you can see it keeps on rebooting as long as u keep on pressing down the buttons, now we have to get in download mode, its kinda tricky tho -
First put the usb into the charger BUT not completely, halfway. Now press vol- + power and hold until it restarts AND as soon as the screen goes black
1- completely connect the USB
2- release the power button (dont release the vol - button) and at the same time press the vol+ button
Thats it, u should've booted into download mode - if it didnt work and the screen went green and crashed, keep on trying and do it as quickly as you can. If you cant pull it off, ask me. at least your phone isn't bricked, it's only tricky to fix it.
Once you're in dowload mode, use EFTSU flash tool and flash it with your firmware version (you can find it in etsu . com)
and this time around be careful trynna twrp flash, me too ofc, i wont even do it anymore, i was just messing around lol
