Hi Guys,
my phone is dead and i have no clue what the issue is.
My S6 just turned off out of nowhere and can't be switched on anymore. It will only show the charge sign for a few seconds after plugin in and then stops/screen turns off. It can't be started at all.
I bought a new battery but don't think this is the problem. i haven't installed it yet, as something else might be broken.
The phone won't turn on when connected to the usb from the laptop, but i can get it into recovery mode as long as it is connected and install a new firmware.
If i unplug the usb in recovery mode, the phone switches off right away so that might be a power issue.
Once i install a new factory rom through Odin, the black/white Samsung boot screen comes on, then the blue installing screen that counts up the installation percentage, and then the phone turns off around 2-6% and says erasing. Then the phone is completely dead again and i can only get a screen picture by entering recovery mode.
What can it be? Any ideas/suggestions?
i attached some picture and a video of the start up in the .zip file, as i can't upload .mp4.
Thanks

I also don't have a boot-loop or something where the phone continuously reboots.
Maybe something related to the memory of the phone?
try flashing firmware with "NAND Erase All" under Options in Odin, this will wipe /data/ partition, if you get stuck in a blank screen reboot in recovery mode and perform a Factory reset to recreate/format the /data/ partition again.

Thanks a lot for that tip.
I tried that and the blue installing screen that counts up the installation percentage doesn't stop at 2-6%, but it stops at 26-32% now, then says erasing, reboots into the same blue installation screen and then turns off.
When i unplug the cable, the phone immediately turns off, so there must be some battery issue as well. Not sure if this is related in any way. I can't get into recovery when only running on battery without a USB cable connected.
Anymore ideas what i could try or it could be?
I think, that because of battery your phone died while flashing in Odin and that's why you can't flash anything now

The phone is connected to the USB though. Wouldn't that provide enough juice to power the phone while flashing?
I can install the new battery i bought but if that is not the reason, i can't return it anymore.
Does the USB provide enough power when flashing?

This is 99% a dead battery, try replacing it. If you have enough time to disconnect and connect to your Wall charger you could try that.
Usb is not enough to keep the phone on, neither charge the battery at the same time

ok, tried doing the official ota update about 2 days ago, but once it tried doing the update, my phone gets stuck at the (M) logo.
I cannot boot it up in anyway possible, and my battery is dead so i cant start it up while plugged in USB, but if its plugged into the wall itll start up and im able to get into boot loader etc...
ive tried putting a recovery img on root of sd card and applying as an update.zip file and getting an sdcard error status 7.
my phone was never rooted, all stock. any help>
power off your phone, plug it into wall charger and let it charge up. while its charging up download a 2.1 sbf,
SHOLS_U2_02.31.0_UCASHLSMR2EMEAB1B805C.0R_PDS003_USASHLS00RTEU_P042_A005_HWp2a_1FF.sbf.gz (google it)
Then download RSD Lite (google it)
Then when your phone is charged boot into bootloader (hold up on keyboard and press power button)
connect to pc via usb, open rsd lite, make sure phone shows up connected, load sbf you downloaded and press start and let it do its thing.
should bring you back to stock 2.1.
hope this helps
well thats the thing, ive let it sit plugged into a wallcharger for hours upon hours, the secon i plug it in, it turns on by itsself and sits at the moto M screen, and once i unplug it i cant do that.
i am able to get it to the screen where you can wipe/data factory reset, wipe cache, reboot and apply update.zip. if i had an update file, and i did a wipe and flashed it, would that fix it? because ive tried that, but idk if its the wrong file or what, but i get a sdcard error. like status 7 on the verification step
also on getting the batt charged, i noticed when plugged into a wall screen lights up with M logo. and when i plug into computer with usb, the white light next to charger lights up?

.i want to reflash but rsd lite cannot detect my milestonext720...how ?..FYI b4 this i run adb on same pc...but it can run...all driver for motorola hav installed ..ill use rsd lite 4.5.3

I actually had this problem myself fairly recently. I was able to partially insert the plug into my phone until the LED turned on, but not far enough to where the Motorola logo turned on. It'll either try to fall out or plug further in, so I recommend placing it on a surface which won't have much disturbance.
After about an hour, you should have sufficient charge to mess around with the software and flash a new SBF by the bootloader, or reflash a backup through recovery. I wouldn't recommend leaving it plugged in too long like this, because it might not be very good for the phone's health.

umm .. what's about charging the battery with another phone or external charger and put it back to ur phone?
i have just the same issue ... i am sure that the battery is fully charged, cause ive charged it with another milestone ... but that one simply won't turn on ... tried different combinations of sd/simcard/battery on and off .. still the same ... Any help would be highly appreciated.
pull out the battery get back and push d-pad UP and power buttons before M logo came up. so you can flash a sbf file with rsd-lite._a
So i recently got an atrix 2 that was preloaded with 4.0.4. I used a one click root method program to program it, and installed this recovery app, and tried to install mokee-rc4-july 14th on my phone. i managed to back up my data before hand but when i wiped the phone and installed the mokee all the phone kept doing was restarting. I have read about recovery mode but all I get when I press and hold the vol. down and power buttons is an oversimplified screen that looks like when I plug into the computer. The backup doesnt even freaking exist anymore on my sd card so I cant restore what was backed up.
AP fastboot flash mode (s)
0A.72
Battery LOW
Cannot Pogram
Connect USB
Data Cable
I did the wipe user data/cache, and ried to reboot but, it ether gets stuck on the red motorola boot screen or gets past that and the screen stays black and reboots over and over.. Please don't tell me I have to go through all that splicing cables n crap just to charge this battery. THERE is no way I CANNOT charge the battery? even with the phone off? How can I resolve this? this is an absolute nightmare. I'm not messing with this rooting/ custom rom stuff after this
You'll need to find a way to charge your battery. You can use someone else's phone or get an external charger of you don't want to do any wiring.
Brought to you but time and relative dimensions in space.

Hi,
You will have to find some other Atrix2 phone or some charger.
something like this one...
http://www.ebay.in/itm/1950mAh-Li-i...Mobile_Accessories&hash=item43b9b11f5c&_uhb=1
Or the macgyver method of hacking the wires and jumping straight to battery terminals.

Hey guys, I´m new here,
and I have a problem with my Nexus 5.
Today, I took it out of my pocket, and it was turned off. I don´t know why, it charged over night,
So I tried to boot it normally, and it worked. But upon reaching the pin screen for the sim card, a message popped up: Power off, shutting down.
I tried some more time, with and without sim, on the charger, and without, I even resetet it to the factory setting through the bootloader.
All these attempts did not work. My phone is on stock, and it´s unrooted.
What can I try to get it working again?
Cheers,
Timo
My first guess is that the plug was not fully inserted into the socket on the phone so that it discharged all night to zero. When that happens, I've found that you need to plug in the charger and leave it alone for a half hour before you will see any sign that it is in fact charging.

Thanks for the answer.
Had it at the charger for like 3-4 hours now, nothing changed...In the short time, I´m able to see the battery indicator it shows the battery on half load together with the sign that it´s loading.
Does the phone load on the bootloader screen?
Cheers,
Timo
Yup, the phone can charge even on bootloader.
Did you unlock the bootloader (and flashed a custom recovery) on the phone ? You should try to backup all data (recovery -> mount and storage -> mount usb, then connect to a comptuter using a usb cable) and to flash another rom/ fastboot and flash the original firmware

Nope, I did not unlock the bootloader. I will try to charge it at the bootloader over night, and I´ll see what happens.
Thanks,

This is slightly unfortunate.
Today, my phone decided to say something about the NFC process not working, like it crashed. Over and over. The moment I hit OK, it appeared again. I couldn't even unlock my phone.
I then went to TWRP and went to factory reset, and the problem was still there. Odd. I must have messed up the NFC apk.
I then went to TWRP and tried to wipe the whole phone. I can't remember which button I hit, however it was either wipe or format. I don't think I hit format, but that's all that I can think I did to cause this.
Basically, at this point, I can turn my phone on to either fastboot mode or TWRP, but normal boot gets me stuck at at the 1+ : powered by android screen.
My phone isn't seen by my PC in adb devices or fastboot - presumably because I deleted my OS, and it can't be in USB Debugging if there's no OS to be in the mode? It's either this, or I can't get my PC to see my phone because of a driver issue. If anyone can direct me on the next step of getting my phone working, I'd be greatly appreciative. I have no cares for any data on the phone, I just want it working.
UPDATE : The phone will no longer turn on. Holding any button combo for three seconds makes it buzz. Nothing changes that. It's plugged in using a Nexus 7 charger to an AC outlet.
What did you expect to happen by wiping the whole phone? Stop trying to turn it on, charge it for eight hours, then try booting it into fastboot mode and getting fastboot to work.

Help here:
OP6 + unlocked+TWRP+Magisk+ Pie9.0.9 xXx Rom.
Yesterday i replace the battery, and it was after one year, wish was without energy. Before assemble rear, i charge a little and test everything.
However i have a strange problem:
When charging OFF, the phone boots and appears the information of telephone unlocked, and stays there.
It should appear the symbol of a central battery + percentage and then go black.
Apart that, everything seems ok with the phone, i can turn OFF, reboot normally, enter TWRP and then system...
Is this normal? Or maybe is something wrong with battery?
Someone?
Can your phone charge in unlock interface? Maybe your phone's boot partition is broken, and it can't show charging interface. Try to use mem tools to flash a full package.
Hi.
It charges normally. On or OFF. Last time i erase and flash ROM 9.0.9, i did have some problems in fact....
And i did flash 9.0.9 Autoinstall from Maurofrio, full package. Everthing seems normal and ok....TWRP, Magisk, etc,etc....
Edit:
Turn off, conect cable, vibrate, and get unlock message.
Press power button + 6 seconds, gets black.......vibrate and again message.....something is weird....
Does not show red light of charging, but i think its hardware here, not software.

Try to use MSM Download Tool to restore phone, it will fix everything except the hardware problem.
