Charge light stays on after removal - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hi the LED charge light stays on after i remove the usb cable. Is my phone damaged?

Did you reboot to see if it clears it? Happened to me a couple times as well,..

I rebooted, wipedata/cache nothing. I thought it was intefering with me flashing to boost but all seems well. Its now plugged in at the moment and the led light stays on.

What is the color of the LED when you plug it in? Also, if it is an R800i (GSM) version, you could try unlocking the bootloader and reflashing the device with Flashtool. Check out the development forums for tutorials on both bootloader unlocking as well as flashing.

gsm version, how can i flash it when it wont come on or boot and the computer not recognizing the usb device connected. the led flashes red
If it only blinks, it seems that the battery was too low.
plug in your charger, after 1 hours charging try it again.
I remember reading a thread about blinking red light. Not sure what it was now though.

Arc won't boot

Hello guys,
I hope you can help. I'm having issues with my Arc running cyanogenmod 7 (.2 I think). I've been using cm on the device for over a year and one morning it would not turn on. I thought it's out of battery so I charged it. Later I tried to turn it on but it still wouldn't start. I further noticed that when plugged in to charge the LED was not illuminated. I tried a different battery from another arc device, but didn't change anything. (Mine worked on the other device.)
A week later or so, I tried to charge it again and suddenly the LED lit up and I was able to turn it on. Unfortunately, this was only temporarily. I checked the phone later and it was off again.
So I thought, I try to send it back to Amazon where I bought it, and maybe they don't get that I modified the software. But they did...
Any thoughts on what I could do?
Cheers,
Diophantus
Can you get the phone into flash mode or fast boot mode or have it detected by any computer?
Sent from my Xperia Arc S using xda premium
I tried flasboot (0.9 linux) and it did not work. I'll try to get a windows machine and test fast boot
Fastboot doesn't work either. Nothing pops up when connecting the device while holding the fastboot key.
Any other suggestions?
So the LED won't turn blue if you hold the menubutton and connect the USB?
And no green LED on flashmode?
Did you do something special with the phone before it happened?

Nope, it just happened over night. Didn't flash or anything. I had been using the Wifi a lot more than usual, but nothing else.
It is strange, that it turned on that one time.
Can they ask Sony if I unlocked the bootloader or how could they know this?

[Q] Bricked

So I guess I bricked my phone when I tried taking it back to stock... The phone will not turn on, will not respond to any charger, WILL NOT DO ANYTHING............................
Honestly I have taken mine to the point a few times. First time I drained the battery to the point it was there. See if u can get to dl mode plugged in with no battery.
Second time something weird happed at a strange point in the flahs...and I really thought I toasted it.I reluctantly did as it said in the "so u bricked ur epic" thread and un plugged it, removed sd card, removed battery and let it sit for an hour. I am not playing when I said it worked for some reason. If I read it I would not have believed it but that is the way it went. Give it a whirl....noot like u can mess it up more. There is a guy who will recover it if it is really toast...via jtag

Hold "1" on keyboard and plug it in, should get you inside Download Mode.

This just happened to me, after a bad odin back-to-stock trying to fix some problems the phone just turn off, no screen, no leds. The phone is dead, can´t access to download mode either. I change the usb cable but didn't show any sign of life. After about 30 min of giving up, I tried pressing the Turn On/Off + 1 buttons, trying to access Download mode several time just hoping it magically works, and suddenly there it is, Download mode. After that, phone is working.
Not sure is this would help, but it least I tell me experience. Good Luck.

That is what I have seen to. As suggested above... rip the card and battery and let it sit for a while (hr plus I would say) and try again with no battery to get to dl mode.

I've had this issue also. Idk the cause. But try resetting using just power button. When the blinking starts keep holding it until it vibrates or you see the screen come back on. I don't think you held it long enough.

[Q] Phone won't start, vibrates 3 times.

Hi. I'm in a bit of a pickle.
I took the phone in the shower with me (since it's advertised as water-resistant) and while I was in there it vibrated 3 times and shut itself down. Now whenever I try to turn it on it shows me a red LED light then vibrates 3 times as well. Same thing happens when I try to put it in fastboot mode or when I try to charge it.
Any ideas?
Can you get into the recovery? If you can I'd suggest a data wipe. Power button and then the volume up.

I ended up putting it in a bowl of rice, worked out just fine. Had to reset it though. Felt slow after it turned on.
Thanks for replying.
