My Phone all of a sudden restarted and now has a black screen and keeps vibrating. my battery isnt dead and it will boot into the ROM I have flashed for a brief second then reboot itself back into the black screen. It won't even boot into recovery nor will it boot into download mode. PLEASE HELP!!!

Sounds strange. What exactly did you flash before hand? From/kernel/mods anything.

Odin you noob. Why do you even waste time with posting such useless garbage? If you can't get back to stock from Odin then post.
I handed my phone to my mother to show her a picture and when she went to hand it to my aunt, my aunt dropped it. I didnt think nothing of it when I locked the screen but when I went to unlock it, my phone restarted and went to a straight black screen and started to vibrate over and over again. I tried to pull the battery and then re-insert it and boot into recovery but when recovery showed up and I went to restore to a previous ROM the phone rebooted itself and started vibrating again. Now I'm at the computer trying to place it into Download Mode. The screen pops up that says to either push Vol + for Download or Vol- for restart. When I press Vol+, the phone restarts and goes straight to a black screen again.
And I'm not a noob, I know what I'm doing my phone just started acting up
And I'm Running the AOKP ROM with Eugene's ICS Kernel with the Tmo_SGH-T989_LC8_Radio
What previous from were you trying to restore?? When you restore a nand back up you have to make sure that the rom you're restoring is the rom that's already installed. In other words if you wanted to restore a back up you would have needed to flash the correct rom before hand. Though I'm confused because if you did try and restore a previous rom say a cm9 back up and you have aokp currently installed it shouldn't work. Cwm will tell you there's a mismatch and it aborts the installation. My guess is this drop did some damage. Your phone isn't making it past post per say of your using pc terms. Can you try and boot back into cwm? You said download mode doesn't work. But does cwm?

I don't know what I did but thankfully I got it to boot into CWM and I'm restoring my ROM
maybe hardware problems if you dropped it, wasn't bricked, we usually say bricking a phone from bad flash, don't we? lol, i am not sure. try taking off sim card, micro sd card and battery then carefully put them back on next time if you have problems from drops etc........
Got to admit the whole "Brick" wording gets thrown around way too much for my liking and lets be honest if you are not a noob then you know all the steps to take in my opinion to try and restore your phone. If those steps dont work and you have researched the web then let Insurance kick in if you have it.
Not trying to flame or be an ass but just saying any non noob should know the steps to try and bring our phone back from the dead... I dont think starting a "Brick" thread should be on that list... Coming from the epic touch where the ICS kernel was bricking everyone its just makes me cringe when I see that word.... My bad man if you don't care for my opinion

Here is my 2 cents
Yes people jump the gun and post bricked phone threads but that's probably because they are panicking.. And yes I agree that people should use the search function and read whenever possible.. And yes people should be reminded to do so..
But if you have the time to criticize someone then why don't you try to help them too..
If you have nothing helpful to add then don't post anything
I like my Roms the way I like my women..... Clean and smooth
I had this same problem,when I tried to go in to recovery and do a restore it would reboot its self even while flashing a Rom.what I did was...go in to recovery and quickly clear cache before it reboot then go back and clear dalvik then go back and try to flash the same Rom you had installed. It did work for mange when I was trying to restore.
Hope this helps

so you tried..
1. remove battery.
2. plug in phone to usb on computer with battery STILL OUT
3. while plugged in hold down volume up and down.
4. Still plugged in and still holding the volume up and down, insert your battery.
5. boom choose continue and find download mode.
If this doesn't get you to DL mode then either something broke hardware wise when you dropped it, OR your not being honest with what you did to cause the problem..

i think i bricked my phone.. i installed vicious jelly.
rebooted.. and now it is stuck at the Google boot.. when i try and load the bootloader i get this:
http://i.imgur.com/eEf0H.jpg
nm.. working now.. wow.. that took forever.. even though my phone has booted completely before..
a) Wrong thread - This belongs in Q and A, not development.
b) "Brick" is when your device won't power on. Yours does. Yours even has a common image (described in bullet point "c"), so it's pretty functional. Brick means just what it says: It's a brick. It has no more functionality.
c) That is the fastboot screen. This is nothing unusual. How to restore your device, I am unsure (see the forums and use the "search" feature or wait for a reply), but your devices is going to be ok.
Sorry. If I knew how to flash a rom from the fastboot, I would tell you. Someone here probably does tho.
You phone is in download mode... also know as ODIN mode... look up the forums for ODIN flash instructions and restore your phone... it's definitely not bricked...

Are you able to get to recovery at all or does it go straight to that downloading screen?
If you can get to recovery just let it sit at the Google screen for a while. There are some issues with JB taking absurdly long to boot on the Nexus.
Edit: I should probably read fully next time >.< glad to hear it's working. Try JellyBelly 1.8 is working great. It's on RW.
when your phone goes to ODIN mode, call THOR and he'll bring you back from ASGARD. problem solved

So I thought I would give up my inexperienced life of flashing and possibly bricking my device(sent it in to get jtag repaired), so I attempted to put it back to stock. I got odin up and running, Downloaded(for the most part) the tar that would make it stock again. about 98% into the flashing it failed and made me a little nervous. I later remembered to flash the kernel, and with it, the phone booted up. Fine and dandy one day yadda yadda yadda.
Now comes day 2, and it just randomly turned off and booted again. it got to the little android boot screen, then shut down again, rinse repeat at different times of the boot process, add in some random shutdowns when I'm at the home screen and using my phone and there you have it.
I figured it was using an unfinished stock rom trying it's best to function, so I tried to put in clockwork mod. I did, but it was very difficult as I navigated through clockwork recovery, the phone would select things on its own, making the rooting process a giant pain. With that monkey on my back, I managed to root and install the juggernaut v.5 rom(which totally rocks) to see if the probably persists. The end result was it still happened, but when it didn't, I was able to work with it normally. At this point in time, I am trying to keep my phone turned on because if for a second the screen shuts off, the phone will start trying to shut itself down and game over. This is still very very annoying and was wondering if you fine people would happen to point someone thats green as grass with this stuff in the right direction

Hmm, try reflashing your recovery. Mount your USB (If you cant, take out your SD card, and mount it on your PC) and place this file on the root of your SD card( Just easier to find this way)

Lol, no its CWM 5.0.2.7 or aka, CWM non-touch, I got that link from TDJ's OP, he so kindly provided us a link for it. From your OP, it sounds like CWM did not flash correctly, you can flash a recovery within a recovery, you just have to restart it or reboot your phone for it to take into effect. Do you have the T989 or T989D?

Did you do a clean install? Darkside Superwipe, flash ROM, reboot, wait ten minutes, then reboot?
Sent from AOKP Goodness :-D
Yeah unfortunately it is still randomly rebooting....washing lol
An update to this: all the same symptoms occur, but for some reason when I flashed darkside rom 3 the symptoms occurred less! For example, last night I was able to use this device for 4 hours straight without it acting up. I really wonder what the problem is. I. Mean the thing acts like an angel when in Odin mode, but when it comes. To cwm or anything else it tends to spaz out.
I too have this happening now. I don't know why its been doing it. I was running the latest aokp and than it started rebooting and shutting off. So I went back to my nandroid backup and still continues. Running darkside v7, and problem is still there. Anyone know why this is happening?
It started happening while listening to music.
Here's a logcat, I used catlog right before it shut down. I cannot comprehend what it is trying to say, hopefully one of you can help me out. Thank you.

In the non touch clockwork recovery use menu to scroll down. Home to scroll up. Back to go back. And search to select. I figured it out by my power button clicking things.

the only way i know how is through odin. I've done it a few times. at the end of the flashing I find that the phone turns itself off or something which marks it down in odin as a FAIL..when in actuality it flashed....it just needs a kernel flash and it'll all be candysticks and lollipops.
At this point in my phones life though, however, it is increasingly harder to do anything in clockwork since the button is fudged up. I think I might have to pony up 35$, but if you can Odin your phone back to flash and tell T-Mobile/Samsung about it, you can probably get the repair for free
Ok, so I searched high and low and saw nothing about anyone who couldn't get there GS3 to boot at all . . .
So My rogers I747M was succesfully rooted with Odin root not trip. And then i flashed It with the generic rooted jelly bean ROM. Successful again everything seemed fine. So i was confident in shooting for CM10(even though ive had troubles in the past) And i put the zip. in the sd and booted into CWM recovery and did a factory reset, cache and dalvik. Went to install CM10 from sd and it gave me error 7. so i reboot device and loaded into the stock rooted jellybean again to try and put another fill in the SD. Tried booting into recovery again. Now nothing at all, I have tried pulling the battery, even for hours. And then button combos..Nothing. Leaving cord in with battery out,button combos,battery in...Nothing
I'm afraid of the worst ATM, i had the unbrickable Captivate before this with my JIG and all, I'd did this to that phone, but the JIG saved me.
So the phone doesn't boot and you can't enter recovery?
The error 7 was cause by you not having the latest version of cwm.
Now for the brick part: try pulling out the battery, put it back and do the button com to enter recovery , old it for like ten seconds. Then plug it to your computer to see if Odin dectects it.
Once you tried it give me some feedback and I will check for further help. But if you are sure you didn't flash a wrong ROM for your device or a wrong kernel. The error 7 shouldn't have bricked your phone

Still No luck, whenever i try to plug it in the computer, it just gives me three quick "DUH_DUH_DUH"s as is to tell me the computer failed to recognize. I'm afraid i may have to take it back to rogers, it's not two weeks old yet so perhaps ill get away with defective, i wonder if they deem that sort of thing in store or at the depot. Because i know they wont get it too boot there, so if they did it in store perhaps ill just get an exchange
Yeah go ahead with the replacement they will not check into it. Worst case scenario, they will fix it and send it back to you

Bleh just got my Optimus yesterday, came stock with zv9. Decided to root today and had no trouble, flashed TWRP recovery using FreeGee then updated to the newest TWRP version using GooManager. Made a backup using TWRP then used GooManager to download Lifeless ROM. Just downloaded, didn't flash. After the download was done I shut off my Optimus but when I went to restart it, it powered on, showed the LG logo for half a second then just went to a black screen. Can't boot to recovery. Whenever I try and turn the phone off it just restarts again showing the logo for brief period of time then black. Any ideas? It's gotta be bricked but I just don't understand how or why. Probably going to try and take the battery out and see what happens.

okay well your not bricked if you can get even a little life like an LG screen. hook phone up to computer and use adb to get into bootloader and try to reflash the recovery img again. it just sounds like you need to reflash your recovery. thats why it didnt flash. lemme know. ill keep checking back on the thread for awhile

You would need LGNPST. you can find it in the IRC if you can get to download mode you can flash back to stock and start over.

Just because the screen doesn't come on don't think the phone is off. Plug that sucker in. If you see the logo you should be able to get in download mode. Also, if the phone is on, you will eventually see some green android screen.
The same thing happened to my phone once. I only know of one way to hard brick this phone. I am not telling anyone how. But, I doubt you did that. It isn't something you would accidentally do.

Go to ebay or one of the other websites, and buy a Samsung Jig. Plug it into your phone, and you'll get into download mode. Best $5.00 you'll ever spend.

Use Odin, search next time. This has been covered various amounts of times.
