[CLOSED] Dead S6 - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
recently my old galaxy S6 is dead with all my datas inside, no response on charging cable, no response on power button combinations, it's completely dead.
I've buyed a new battery and this does not solve the problem.
I've tried to connect and disconnect the battery and, sometimes, after i touch the power connector on the phone with my finger and connect the battery a white battery with a lightning bolt appears, or if i'm lucky the green charging battery appears: in this case, if i try to boot the phone the boot begins, but the phone freeze during the boot. For example, last time the screen froze with the SA of SAMSUNG appearing and the only thing i can do is to disconnect and reconnect the battery.
With this in mind i'm thinking about two possibilities:
- The motherboard is broken
- The battery connector on the phone is broken
Am i correct?
How do i verify if the battery connector is broken?, i was thinking about trying with a multimeter, but i really don't have idea how to use it and check, what do you think about this?
Thank you in advance.

Samsung i780 - BRICKED IT :( :( :(

I've BRICKED my device
All of a sudden, when the device was connected to the charger and was in standby, I tried to power it up....and it wouldnt turn on. I pulled the charger cable out....the LED was still glowing. I pulled the battery and put it back in.....and that was it. Completely dead....no response
Plugging in the power, switching batteries (fully charged), pressing all buttons, hard reset/emergency mode key combos, punching the reset hole a million times, pulling the batteries in/out with the charger in/out....all sorts of crap tried. Even the power LED doesn't glow when the charger is connected. NO sign of life from the PDA in ANY form. Completely dead = paper weight. Also tried holding the power button for over a minute or two...nothing happens. Also tried using Mirage and pluggin it in....doesn't detect anything.
Now I need some help guys -
1. My i780 is just 2 weeks old. Will my warranty be void if Samsung finds some other rom? If so, how do they process this? Can they fix and I pay for support?
2. If the device doesn't power up, they anyway cant figure what rom's in there...so i should technically qualify for a replacement....am i right?
3. Anyone here have bricked and dealt with samsung service? your experience?
4. Any other ideas on what i could do to unbrick?
Thanks....sucks guys
Shame to hear that
Have you tried to ask in off topic in thread regardnig samsung?
Good luck,
Hey orb!
I guess mine's a total brick here....looks more like a hardware failure. I plug the charger in, the LED doesn't glow....nothing happens no matter what i do. Its just a dead chunk of plastic at the moment. Guess its going back to the service center.
You'll be happy about this though.......i'm back on my trusty universal once again! It still is simply the best device out there! Only gripe is that it runs on just 64megs ram.
Cheers
is that able to flash rom or enter emergency mode ?
i guess may be rom problem ,
i780 propably will like this if you are using the oldest rom ~

[Completed] LG G2 No power...Constantly Vibrating

Hey everyone 2 weeks ago I was using my lg g2 verizon model running android 5.0.1 lollipop and it felt from my bedside. Note this is not her first time the phone had fallen. I have a tpu case on it and it usually fears very well against occasional drops. That fateful night however the phone fell and when i picked it up it went blank and was switched off. I tried to power it on by pressing the power button but the phone just vibrated continuously on a second by second basis ( literally counting mississippis). I then tried to plug the phone into my wall outlet to force a boot but it just vibrated too.
Later that week i opened it up removed and reattached the battery cable and IT CAME ON!! Two short days after i rebooted the device for a new app but then it didnt power on. The same problem occured. I tried my fix again and after a couple of tries it finally worked. A week later and forgetting my phone problems i restarted ny phone again only to find out that the problem had returned. After trying my quick fix over and over again, nothing seemed to work so i decided to try troubleshooting the device myself. My results have left me baffled.
Ok so before you guys start shouting out solutions, heres what did and found ;
1) Tried a new battery and the phone still vibrated.
2) Unplugged the battery from the motherboard and plugged in my charger and the phone still vibrated. Lead me to believe that its not a battery problem.
3) Removed all un-neccessary components from the phone ( camera, screen, mic, antennas, etc...) the phone still vibrated.
4) Removed the power button module from the phone and it still vibrated when the charger was plugged in.
Note: I disconnected the vibrator behind then motherboard and held the phone to my ear while I plugged it in to my wall outlet. I could hear a faint clicking sound in a cycle.
Im completely lost sorry for the long thread but if anyone can offer some advice please help me i have no money to buy a new phone atm #life
Thank you in advance xD

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist
Unfortunally for your phone this is indeed an hardware problem and i doubt it may be a software one...
If you didn't "worked" on the device from the software side i think the better way is to take it to an assistance shop or something like that in order to fix your vibration problem.
But for futher assistance i suggest you to ask overe here: Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Or here:

Good luck!

[Completed] Strange behavior of phone because of bad battery

Hello all
I dont know the right place to ask about my problem so I apologize in advance.
I own an Leeco Le X600 phone and up until next week it was working fine.
A new marshamallow came out and I updated it gtom lollipop without an issue.
This weekend everything changed.
I wanted to copy some pictures to my computer so I plugged the USB cable and nothing happened.
The phone vibrated but didnt recognize the usb connection nor the computer recognized the phone.
I decided to reboot the phone hoping that would fix the problem when I first encountered the problem
The phone would boot to the logo screen and then reboot again in a continuous loop.
I tried to get into recovery mode thinking that I would reinstall the firmware 15s but the logo would show Recovery but it would just reboot.
I finally figured out that plugging the USB cable to either the computer or charger the phone then reboots normally (in recovery too).
I have since done factory resets, reinstalls of the firmware with no change in behaviour.
The phone was unusually warm all the time and today I charged it to 100% and basically just let it sit unplugged without using it all day and the battery was empty in about 7 hours.
So its safe to say that the battery is busted.
I can order a replacement battery, they are not very expensive but my concern is that while that should fix the battery life would it fix the other problem with the USB connection and booting issue?
When the cable is plugged the phone vibrates which indicates to me that it recognizes it but it just goes into charging mode and doesnt give the options for data like I simply plugged into the charger.
I have tried different cables and different computers.
Anyone has seem anything similar and know if a battery replacement solved the issue?

[Completed] Note 10.1 won't start or detected by pc,usb debugging is not on, by mistake!!!

I have the worst problem, it began after i upgraded GT-N8000 to kitkat,by UAE ROM, but it works for few months, and USB is not debugging enabled, by mistake...
Until i forgets it on the power fro four hours, then i discovered that it is rebooted and rebooted and rebooted and stuck on the samsung icon, i took it for samsung to fix it they told it is motherboard, and has a price more than the device itself, so i took it from them, and tried to start it, it is failed to start after... i removed the cover and removed the battery for a minute, useless, i couldn't turn it again, i did all the things on the internet, useless.
The PC is not detecting the device.
The device is not starting on.
the battery is removed many times, and plugged again.
Even i tried to charge the battery using its poles by a direct charger on it, while it is unplugged from the motherboard.
The device can't be started or give any power on the screen...
Kindly help... Thanks always in advance.

Dead S6
