Please Help!!!!! i have tried to fix this problem and have searched for a new solution and everytime i find a new thing to try, it works and then stops working once screen locks. and now nothing will work, so if anyone knows any solution other than factory reset, soft reset, uncheck the screen rotation button and reset it and recheck it after restart or remove all apps and reinstall one at a time ( been there done that for all) and so on and so on.......i'm thinking i have to wait until new marshmallow update is available or get a new S6........ so if anyone has a permanent solution please help!!!!!!
thanks in advance

I have heard of that, but never knew how to do it. Don't want to brick my phone.

Ive been running a GTN7000 on rooted ICS for some time without any errors however today I decided to remove Chainfire 3D, after the compulsory reboot my phone shows no display after the initial logo. The normal jingles and vibrations take place and the buttons are lit but there is no screen output.
Does anyone know how to fix this without wiping my phone? thanks
It seems like you have a soft brick. Try a reset via Samsung Kies or look for a soft brick undo guide or something.
I am sorry I cannot help any further as I do not own a note myself and therefore have minimal experience with the device.
Would like to hope you can fix it.
Hit thanks if I helped.
i think you should try to soft reset it. you can use any reset method you already know....
sorry if i couldnt help you any further too. but as for me, when i face some error like that, i've always reset my phone (coz i already backup my data with titanium backup)
Hi guys, sorry for the delay.
I've finally managed to fix it.
After fighting through a whole heap of errors and reflashing the device at least 10 times I now have my phone back to a fully working rooted ICS state. I did however loose all my data.
I was having problems with the GPS on my Koodo Galaxy S2X phone that I decided to do a factory reset on it.
The reset worked fine and then I reinstalled all my apps, all good.
except that now when I want to restart or power off the unit, it gets stuck somewhere and the hard buttons stay lit and I have to remove the battery to turn it off.
If I keep the power button pressed long enough it will reboot.
Any ideas how I can solve this?
I thought of doing a new factory reset just in case something went awol in the previous one but in the screen to do the factory reset after pressing the button "ERASE" nothing happens.
If I select to format the USB drive, a message does come up saying that its formating and then nothing.
The unit is not locked because I can continue to use it normaly. And no reset is done.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The unit is rooted but has the stock koodo ics 4.0.4 in it.
Could this have something to do with the root?
Any help would be appreciated.

Ever find an answear to your problem? Having the same issue. For now I am simply not shuting down my phone because I am sure that pulling out the battery in the midst of a shutdown if probably not good for it.

I solved my problem by installing a new ROM (koodo v3 rom) but after doing that I think if I just had used the SUPERWIPE script might have been enough to reset the device.
At least the GPS works great now with this ROM.

Hi,
I've the same problem at the moment with my new s2x. I've tried restoring to the my original rom and I've also tried a different rom (Koodo v4) and the phone still won't turn off properly (the bottom button lights keep lit).
I was wondering if anyone could help. How exactly do I work the SUPERWIPE and what exactly does it entail? Sorry I'm quite new to all this just bought my first android yesterday. Thanks.
Superwipe is run with TWS or clockwork. I dont know exactly what it does but it fixed my problem.

Thanks Martelo, I used Darkside superwipe (link here), reinstalled rom and it finally shuts off now.
Hello
My non-rooted Xperia U (updated to ICS), was giving me problems being very slow and hanging out at moments. So in frustration I went right into the settings for factory reset with internal storage erase option checked (without any back up). The phone was wiped and started working again with the first few 7-step settings it asks. After that I restarted the phone again re thinking to boot it for customization, but the phone does'nt go ahead of the xperia screen. It restarts again n again to that screen. Any help is much appreciated.
P.S- Plz dont ridicule if I'm unable to understand the problem because this is my first time trying to fix cellular problems. Thank you
Hope to find some helpful answers.

My note will work fine after a fresh turn on or a reset but after I lock the device, the screen wont turn back on again until you do a reset in which case the same problem will persist if I lock it. It is a stock rom (just updated) never rooted. I just dont get why this is happening. I tried doing a factory reset but it doesnt solve the problem. Please help.
Thanks in advance.
This just started earlier today, n I thought it was nothing that a reboot wouldn't fix but it's persisted on & off all day... When i try n install any app, or a theme thru Substratum I cannot click the install button, I can click the cancel button but not the install... Tried everything, clearing cache reboots, rotating the screen then trying, cleaning screen & still nothing... any ideas or suggestions other than factory reset?
