One hour ago when i take the phone from my bag, i noticed that my phone was power off. I supposed that the phone was low battery and i decided to put it in charge. But the phone not charge normal. the google screen appear and disappear in loop. If i detach the cable the phone doesn't start. If i turn on in bootloader mode the phone shut down after one second.
Sorry for my bad inglish. I'm desperate :banghead::banghead::banghead: please help me, the phone is rooted and with non stock ROM.

I had same situation on my Xperia S. I Installed ROM, and when I had low battery I rebooted phone. Everything stopped on Xperia Logo screen and my phone won;t turned on and then battery was empty. Firstly I Could not to do but when I was reading something on XDA I found out that I should charge some power on my phone, then Flash a clean rom. Try to charge your phone, then use Nexus Root Toolkit and pick option to Install stock ROM if your device is on bootlopp etc.
Or if you have installed TWRP for example try to install ROM again after charging
Sounds like another stuck power button.
I assume you hadn't done anything before hand? All was up and working fine etc

Do you have it in a case? If so the power button on the case could be continually pressing on the actual N5 button. Remove from the case, and test.
No, no Keys, now i have no problem. The Phone works great and i have flashed factory image

I have had my S3 for about two months now and it has been rooted the whole time. The stock ROM finally annoyed me enough to try a new ROM. I installed Rootbox then Pacman, but they both just sat on the boot screen for about 10 minutes before I pulled the battery and gave up. I tried installing MIUI which went well but as soon as I hit the 'restart' button, the screen went blank and now the phone won't turn on. The battery is fine, I tried the known good one out of my wife's S3.
Is there any hope here? Any chance I will be able to get it swapped out at Verizon? Am I just f'ed?
Just for the record because I know it will be asked: I am have installed many ROMs on my old Droid X and I did follow directions for these installs. MIUI even had the wizard. I do have a nandroid but since I cannot turn the phone on at all, I can't get to it. I cannot get to download mode or react when I plug the charger in. I can't even get the thing to vibrate when holding down the power button...as far as I can tell it is COMPLETELY dead.
Thanks for the input.
Pull the battery and try again. If that doesn't work plug it in and see if it charges.

i fried a gsiii and got a replacement frpm big red. just tell them the OTA did it. if it can't turn on they can't check what you've done until it's too late. bring it in asap and have a sob story about how the update destroyed your phone... it worked 2 days after the jelly bean update for me.

No dice on both fronts.
Thanks Bear, that is pretty much the plan so far.
Any response booting into download mode?

Does the screen flash for a second or respond for any amount of time when you try charging it with or without the battery? Our is there no response at all when you're trying to charge it,?

No problem. They will give you a replacement as long as there is no physical damage to the phone... Good luck!!

Did you flash a rom for the i9300 version of the phone and not the i535? I did that and hard bricked my first s3.

So last night I plugged in my Verizon GSIII into the charger, and this morning, when I went to it to turn it on, it booted up, had the Samsung Logo, the Cyanogenmod animation... and shuts off. I tried to power off and power on three more times, and even put it into recovery, but the phone shuts off even before it allows me to do this. I tried again, with 3 different batteries to no results.
You guys have any ideas?
Should I try for a ADB connection?
Since technically my warranty is voided after root, I don't think Samsung will be too pleased if I ask for a replacement :/.
Oh, and since I'm sort of a noob, and if this is an obvious cause or something, I apologize
Thanks!
If you can goto download mode, then you can flash stock firmware. But just check the flash counter.

Hi guys,
I need your help, once again. This afternoon my phone fell on the ground, not from a big height, but it did. As I picked it up it was still working, but I couldn't pick up a phone call I was receiving, so I switched it off. Since then, it's in constant reboot. I tried to pull the battery, but as soon as I put it back in, the loop starts again, without even pushing the power button.
Unfortunately, when I pulled the battery I realized some had craved in, from a previous spill. Not much at all, in fact I was surprised to see it there, but as a fact there was.
I tried to access recovery mod, but with no success.
Thoughts?
Get into download mode and go back to stock.
Could be a problem inside the phone. But you should try going into download mode and go back to stock by using the one click back to stock tool.

No success. As soon as I pop the battery in it starts the loop, so basically I have no time to press volume and then plug the cable in.
If I plug the cable, press volume, and then pop battery in, it goes into a different "battery loop", but still loop.
I can't believe it got damaged for three drops of water...

Try this different method to get into download mode.
Take everything out of the phone (microSD, Battery, and SIM card).
Then hold both volume button up and down and THEN connect it to the cable.
Keep holding the volume buttons and then put the battery in.
It may be hard so you should flip to the back side of the phone and do tht. By doing tht, it will automatically go into download mode.
If that doesnt work it could be a battery problem or the phone is broken :/

Nothing, still goes to a sort of battery charging loop. Damn it...
Can you try to get into download mode without putting the battery in. Just hold the volume buttons and connect it to the cable and see if it goes to download mode. If it does then put battery in. Be careful.

That sucks. :/ Download mode is the only way to fix these kinds of problems. I dont see why you wouldn't be able to get into there. Try looking in other forums to see if it can help you.

I can't believe it... I realize water is lethal to these devices, but that was not much water at all...
I guess I can start looking for a new one. Suggested phones? Nexus 4?
That phone seems nice. As long as you can afford it then it would be great. Just make sure it doesn't contact wit water. Even doe it my seem like tht is a great phone to chose phones arent made to be water proof at this point

Unfortunately I can't really afford it, but now it's hard to go back to a dumb phone. At the same time I'm pissed at how fragile these things are..
Sadly i have nothing to add to this except i have this exact same problem happening to me right now. Now This is the second phone ive ever rooted so you know I'm a newb their. So Can someone shoot me in the direction of stock tar files and what Odin to use.
I believe that is what i need to do yes?
use Odin to (IDK) inject root access with some other programs needed to use custom roms backups etc, also this is doe using a specific file as this is the part of the process where most phones are bricked?
So sorry but for those following this thread I have searched but IDK the best way to go as they change and i want the latest. As when i first rooted this phone I first tried Superoneclick as it was said to be so easy. Well SOC froze on step 3 i think and never finished once so i ended up doing it with Odin which is the way i did it with my SG3 (for some reason way easier to use maybe more devs??) So i am trying ti pimp my mothers phone LOL She is in her 60s but she knows what shes doing lol. Anyway she hated her phone and i told her all she had to do was root it and load a new ROM and your phone will look and act newer. (wanting to save mom money too) This is my situation.
If you read all that i am asking what Odin version i need or better where to get it. Same with the flash file. IDK if any ICS or JB rooted flash files are made or if its better to use stock 2.3.6 (i think) whichever way results in easiest upgrading and how it should be done. I thank you a lot. I am sorry for the thread hijack but i thought it would be better one post here instead another thread (i hope to have found it from you or on my own before that) like i said i search but i cant find i know its their i found it before so idk.
I do know to thank you again and sorry again for the hijack

Hi,
Recently i bought a 16gb SD card from wal-mart and i thought that i could just use that to install apps with...boy was i wrong. Anyway, i decided to root and install cm11.0 on it, everything worked fine and dandy until i decided to install a mod that i saw that said "swap internal SD/External SD. It got me excited and so i jumped into installing it like normal (e.g. recover -> flash -> reboot) and my tablet started up at the boot logo for Samsung. i got excited and excited until i noticed it was taking FOREVER. it booted up and worked but the battery drained out because it was left with 5% left. it died, i tried turning it back on but nothing happens :'c. BUT although whenever i plug the tablet into a wall socket i get a battery logo and a little loading thing that indicates that its charging, BUT the indicator is frozen. It just doesn't move and neither does the charging bar.
I can send pictures of what it looks like but im no photographer Please helpp!!! :crying: :crying:
Can you get into recovery?

I cant really turn it on to begin with, like recovery or download mode. I tried to charge it but it just shows the charging icon and the a loading thing thats frozen. Cant get into download or recovery. Im pretty keen with getting out of hard bricks because i got out of like 3 but this one is pretty bad.

Hye guys, my nexus 5 suddenly shut down and refuse to turn on just now. Weird part of this problem is when i connect it to power source, it turn on but bootloop forever. I have been tried few tricks that i found but those trick didnt work. I suspect that my battery is now gone bad but would be nice if you guys had similar situation and share it here to me or confirm which part i need to replace. Thanks

It does sound like a bad battery to me. But just in case If you can connect to your PC with a cable I suggest you flash stock. That will definitely tell you that it's hardware.
At first, i thought the same too. I opened the back and took away the battery, it still the same.
When i tried to go into bootloader with cable attached to my PC or charger is plugged in, it shows the bootloader before self reboot almost instantly after that. It won't stay long enough to let me flash.
Is it completely broken? Motherboard or chips issue?

If your phone is off the charger and you cant turn it on and if it is on charger you see the google logo appearing and disyppearing then your problem is a broken power switch.
I've had the same problem and had neither a dead battery nor power switch. I would leave it plugged in for a few hours, then try to get into boot loader mode. Clear cache via fastboot and reboot.
Tried that, but it won't stay in bootloader mode, it will restarted itself almost instantly and repeated like that forever.

Then its a power button or battery issue.
What about if you unplug it as soon as the bootloader appears?

Why are you so sure it is not a Battery issue?
Maybe then a power switch problem. It may be sticky.
Have a command prompt window up and ready to send a new boot.IMG to your device. The second it hits BL mode try to flash it. See if it writes on the device.
I think this is recoverable.

If the phone is borked and needs an RMA, might be a last ditch effort. I'm comfortable doing something like that, but not all might. It would involve perfect timing.

Meh. Could try it but I doubt it'll do any good.
Thanks for all replies. Nothing i did (including all of suggestions here) can revive it. Trying to do RMA but the BL is unlocked.
I just tear it all apart (thats why I'm sure not a battery and power button issue) and already started selling all the parts. So sad to be one of the unfortunate N5 owner.
