Hi guys.
I have a problem. My phone is bricked ( I think ). The phone was running, then i got into recovery wiped cache and dalvik chache. Then I clicked reboot and the phone neved booted. What could have happend? Sometimes when the phone gets laggy i do this and neved had the problem.
ps: I have a problem with the battery. Sometimes it show wrong % of battery status. It recharges by it self oO . Could it be the battery?
Have you tried flashing a new ROM? Are you able to boot into recovery by any chance?

yea, tried it, it restarts and then when I try to shutdown again later...Same issue
Sounds like a stuck on/off button. Unfortunately it's been fairly common. It's been discussed many times in the forums

I was recently trying to install a ROM.. in the process i usually wipe everything through the recovery but this time i wiped SYSTEM DATA CACHE and BOOT and then i powered off my phone and now i cannot turn on the phone neither can i charge it nor does it work after connecting to the computer... i cannot send it to the service centre because it is bootloader unlocked and custom recovery.. please help me ... also my battery went down so i thought maybe because of the battery this happened if i change the battery will the bootloader work because if it does then i will get it back to original condition and give it to them. please help me it is very urgent !

I was trying to flash a new rom. [ROM][VRBLK3][4.1.1][RLS15] GalaxyMod ¯`•._ Universal | Tweaks. I was using Rom Manager, I tried to instal the first time and the phone froze inside the aroma installer. I pulled the battery and restarted the phone. I went back to my current rom with everything wiped. I then tried to flash again. Everything went fine until the phone rebooted. I get a quick samsung screen. Then Samsung Galaxy S III. then the screen just goes blank. I have tried to reboot into recovery but it does the same thing. Also into download mode. Someone please help
If you would of read rls15 is having problems booting.
You have to pick developer's choice in Aroma.
And as soon as your phone boots up disable ripple effect.

I just told you what to do? Flash the rom with developers choice and when it's done booted up disable ripple effect before the phone goes to sleeps and locks.
And maybe you just didn't ewad enough because it there was about a hundred complaints of the same exact thing, I'm not kidding.

Your phone will evebtually recognize to get into recovery mode, keep trying since you phone can at least boot up.

That is because you didn't do a clean install (wipe data cache, dalvik cache,factory reset and system). Also you didn't choose developer's choice in the aroma installer. Also both recovery mode and download mode do work as I encounter the same problems as you it took a couple of battery pulls to do it.

I finally got it to boot into recovery. I am restoring now. Thanks
Phone is rooted with latest TWRP, Cataclysm rom, and Franco kernel. It started happening when I flashed r11 Franco kernel and when I reboot the phone, it shuts down instead. I couldn't start the phone holding down the power button and I held it for over 20 seconds. I thought I bricked my phone. After few minutes fussing with the buttons, it finally booted up. However, every time I reboot my phone, it'll do the same and I had to fuss around the buttons keeping them press down for several minutes before it'll boot up to system or boot loader. As far as I can see, it can boot to recovery & system with no issue. I'm wondering if I need to flash to stock and reflash it again. Anyone knows anything about this or had same issue, please help. Thanks.

Listen like the kernel is the problem. So flash another one (easy way) or go back to stock.
If it's working fine then, it was the kernel which made this happens.
Much success

This is what happens: it gets stuck in the rebooting process. It doesn't properly shut down, it just hangs with the screen turned off.
Try flashing the stock kernel. Does it do the same?

Flashed with stock kernel and it's still doing the same thing. I also restore back to stock 4.4 with stock kernel and it's still doing the same. Do I need to unroot and root again then flash rom, kernel, and etc? Don't really want to do that if I don't have to but guess I have no choice? Thanks again.
Yep, do a factory reset and see if it's working fine again... I'm thinking so.

Update: I've decided to just wipe it all and start over by unroot and root again which solved the problem. It's rebooting correctly and not stuck in that awful black screen boot loop. Thanks.

This means, going back on to the stock firmware. This will remove the root for sure.
After that starting with rooting again.
Hope this answers your question

You have a stuck power button. Pull the battery and then put it back in. If it boots right away that will confirm it. You can try to clean it or have it replaced.
