I recently installed a root onto my S4 as well as Cyanogen Mod 12 (or 12.1). My battery has been draining quickly and I read that I just had to wait a few days. Still the battery just melted away like butter. So people (I believe on this very forum) advise to factory reset. I backed up and factory reset. When I did so, the Samsung logo appears, then the screen becomes grey, then black, then grey perpetually. I tried holding power, volume, and home, but they just make the Samsung logo appear again and it goes back to the loop of black and grey. This is the first time I seek help from this forum, so I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to post.

Hi Guys
Appologies if this has been asked before (I cant find) but my 2 week old S4 started playing up yesterday by constantly rebooting. It did this about 5 times whilst in touchwiz and then it would get as far as the Samsung logo with the blue glow, wait for about 10 mins and then reboot.
It now is stuck on the Galaxy S4 screen and wont do nothing.
Ive tried to get into recovery (Vol+ Home Power) and get the blue reboot top left and then nothing.
Hope somebody can help

You want this other forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2162
FYI, you posted this in the forums for the Galaxy s 4G, an older phone with entirely different hardware.
Oops sorry
My Dad brought the phone from Alibaba and after 3 months it was boot looping so i tried to fix it for him. When i got into the recovery mode i factory reset it and then it was flash nand or something like that. I stopped it half way through the process and after that the was dead. Not connecting to pc not turning on no lights to indicate signs of life. The phone is getting power because when it is left charging the back where the camera is located feels warm. If anyone knows a solution or is the phone unrecoverable please tell me

Hi, as mentioned it may be difficult to find support for knock-offs. I did find this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433709 where the last post the member gave some suggestions of places to look.
You can also try to post your question in the international S4 Q&A section here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/help
Best of luck to you.
Hello, I have an HTC Amaze for over a year now. It was working fine, I rooted it CWM 5. and I installed Android revolution custom ROM. Until 2 weeks ago my battery was giving me some trouble, so i put away the phone for a bit, I bought a new battery then I notice the phone wasn't coming on. SO i charge for an entire day it still wasn't charging. I carried it to the shop. They said, that they don't know whats wrong with the phone.
I came home and decide am going to fix it my self i tried powering it into recovery mode, hard reset. screen is still blank, at lease that is what I thought. I look closely and then i notice the phone was in recovery mode but no lights were on in the screen. So normally I thought what anyone would of thought, the bulb in the screen or some kind of wiring went bad. The i tried wiping cache davlik install new new rom. Nothing worked. and this was defficult because I had to use a flash light to see on the screen. Lastly, i just click reboot and then the phone lights up perfectly and HTC logo comes up and then it blanks off again. So can anyone help? any advise

I finally got the right digitizer for my LG-D802, and when I turn it on it will either go through the boot process, and then show 0% battery and tell me it's turning off because of the battery, or do a boot process with what looks like a buffering logo animation followed by a regular speed animation,led light flashes green and blue and then back to the 0% battery and turn off. If connect it with charger turns on by it self and the boot logo runs like slow motion,after some time reboot and does bootloop.
I can get it to firmware download mode, and cannot get it to factory reset. I also cannot get my win 7 to see the phone after trying tons of different drivers.
Please help

Restoring s6 edge wont work
I try to restore my phone and when I do it from settings factory data reset it turns off the phone and doesn't turn on until i hold the power button when I do a hard reset i turn off the phone held power volume up and home and it just keeps on the s6 screen where it says samsung galaxy s6 edge custom powered by android then after 10 seconds the home and back buttons flash like 3 or 4 times then it freezes for like 2 minutes then the screen flashes bright white with son other colors mixed in for a millisecond then turns off immediately and won't turn on but after holding the power for a moment and letting go the phone lights up 10 seconds after i let go and the phone boots up like nothing happened I tried before i rooted it and it wouldn't work my warranty is obviously voided since it's rooted and I'm mad that that's the reason I rooted is to get twrp or cwm and they don't support my variant its a galaxy s6 edge cellcom SM-G925R6 on android 5.0.2 and I want to reset since it's been having performance issues, anyone know what the heck I should do? Bottom line it won't go to recovery menu, but for some reason download mode works just fine. I feel like crap since it's not a cheap phone and I messed up my warranty trying to fix this thing. Phone still works as it did but it just needs to be reset since it gets slow.
