I have a Samsung W which is not rooted, with Stock Rom as i bought it. Everything was ok until yesterday. I put it in my pocket and the phone was Suddenly turned off. Since then the phone won't turn on except that the screen sometimes flashes when pushing numerous times the power button.
When i press the Vol+ + Center Button + Power Button to enter Recovery mode nothing happens.
I will charge it overnight to see if something changes tomorrow.
Need Help please!
Finally Turned it on, But Samsung Kies and ODIN seem not to working at all. Samsung Kies stacks at "Connectind" & ODIN detecs the phone successfully, but when the phone restarts it won't turn on, i have to remove battery and Open it in Download mode again.
Try to enter download mode press vol down + home+ power button if you can enter download mode flash it with odin

maybe the power button has the problem.
I disassembled the phone and the power button is working fine. I can't enter Dwonload Mode. the phone won't turn on at all :/
Since it is not flashed / rooted & with stock rom, just sent in to a service center, it's the safest thing to do right now i think.
After that you can do with it what you want
Hello! I cant sent it to a service center as it has a big mark on the top of it and they will ask me to pay in order to fix it. I finally Managed to Turn it on in DOWNLOAD MODE. I tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1467128 this thread with ODIN and Samsung KIES. Samsung KIES stacks at "Connecting". ODIN detects the phone, downloads data , but when the phone restarts is dead. I have to remove battery and turn it on in Downloading Mode

What 'big mark' making it cannot be sent back to Samsung lol? Maybe you should install CWM and do a full wipe first before you flashed the ROM with Odin (anyway sending it back to Samsung will still be the best solution as you may accidentally void the warranty when you are trying to fix it)
Well, i believe for ODIN to work first u have to kill Kies Process using the Task manager or you will get some conflict between the two.
Also, if your phone has a scratch on top of it, then your fine. However, if it has a big DENT or if it is broken somewhere, then they will probably assume it was a problem due to a fall or something. However you can always try and send it to the service center and they will probably sort it out or replace your phone as a last resort (even if it has a scratch on it xD).

Hi,
yesterday i got my sgs and first i wanted to update it to JM5.
Because 3 of my friends have the same phone i know what to do.
First i tried to get into download mode but it doesn´t work.
I found here in the forum (thread 749470) "Australia Optus Galaxy S no download mode!" that i´m not the only one with this problem.
Someone told me to use "adb reboot download" to enter download mode - and this worked fine. The working android appeared on the screen.
Odin now found the phone and i tried to flash but it always ended with "file analysis....". So I found help in this forum - restart pc, start odin as admin, use another firmware, try other usb port - nothing happened - last thing: remove the battery for 30sec and try again.
NOW: SGS alway shows the same pic: a phone + ! + PC - but PC can´t find phone, phone can´t be switched off - nothing!
What can I do now except taking the phone back to my dealer?
I appended a pic from my display.
Thanks for your help!

if you can not get into download mode, then there is no way to fix it
you'll have to send it back to the store, to have it repaired
hmm, you can press at least the power button for 7-10 seconds, then the phone reboots, mybe you are able to go into download or recovery mode, with those button combinations.
but isn't that icon his screen shows, meant to connect the phone to pc and start kies so kies can fix it? (at least i read sth like that on forum) but if this all doesn'T work i don't know
You can always switch the phone off, pull the battery out. ( Avoid doing so when flashing though. )

This guide is really not all that useful.
Take out the battery, and reboot by first pressing voldown+home and then power and wait until you see the yellow download screen.
I'd recommend not doing anything with a phone that you can't get into download mode from a cold start with. Too much can go wrong. Leave it on stock.
I remember seeing that screen when I thought I had bricked my phone, I think I managed to pull back by removing the battery and trying again.

that is only because your 3 button combination was working
in his case, his 3 buttons are not working
there is a batch of samsung phones that came from factory with the 3 button combo disabled
Having the same issue. Think the stores will replace it under warranty like this?
(I did the international root version first time. ANY HELP?)
I tried this rooting thing of putting ics on my phone and went into download mode on my Samsung Galaxy s2 from T MOBILE and the write failed on Odin. So I unplugged and restarted my phone and it was stuck at the Upgrade problem encountered on my phone. So I plugged my phone back in again and tried it again and it failed yet again.
I unplugged my phone. Turned it off.
When I turned it back on, or at least tried. It wouldn't. It won't turn on now and is completely blank. It still won't turn on.
I have tried:
Soft reset
Removing battery for ten minutes.
Booting into recovery mode.
NOTHING WILL HAPPEN.
Please help!!!!! This was my first time to root and it went for the worst. This was my christmas present
If you can still get into download mode, you are fine.
Odin CW recovery and flash a compatible rom.
There is no ICS for the T-mobile version of the SGS2.
Look here.

[HOWTO] ROOT T-Mobile SGSII via ODIN -- Updated Recovery
Open Odin on your PC.
To get back into download mode pull the battery, insert the battery, press and hold Vol up and Vol down, plug USB cable into phone. Do not press the power button.
ICS is not available for the tmo sg 2 yet so you'll be waiting like everyone else. There are a few Nice ROMs in the dev section though.
If you still can't get into download mode then warranty exchange, jigging, or paperweight are your only options. Good luck.

Hey guys. I have a samsung galaxy S3 SGH-i1747M Running ICS on Bell.
It asked me to do an update today, a full software update (Not jellybean clearly). I accepted it. It automatically turned off saying that it was going to re-boot. It never re-booted. Now it wont even boot. When I try and turn it on, it vibrates, splashes the samsung logo, says "Recovery Boot" in the top left corner, then just gives me a black screen. I cant get into download mode and Kies wont recognize my phone when plugged in. Im pretty stumped on what to do.
If you guys could help me out that would be great.
Thanks

Don't panic simple to recover, what you need to do is flash your ROM manually using ODIN.
1 Of course you need to get ODIN
2 Since you already have kies, it should recognize the phone as soon as you plug in to PC when you get in Download modem you can only tell if it gets recognized in Kies you will see COM PORT number ON (Yello) or Blue
3 download the ROM from Bell...Here: http://samsung-updates.com/get/2569/Samsung_Firmware_SGH-I747M_BMC_I747MVLALH1_Android_4_0_4.html
once all all the files are ready, while phone off get it in Download mode
How to get into Download Mode (For Odin)need to extract the zip
1. Unplug the USB cable.
2. Shut down the phone.
3. Hold down the 'HOME' + 'VOLUME DOWN' buttons and press the 'POWER' button for about 2 seconds until a WARNING! Screen appears. Press the 'VOLUME UP' button to enter Download Mode
Open odin, CHECK ONLY PDA and direct to file (rom) you downloaded (might need to be extracted first)
Plug the phone, which by now should be showing the Download mode screen, WAIT until the computer is done recognizing and installing then Hit start button and wait be patient it might take some time, and the first boot will take a long time...
The above information is solid. However Bell has a 30 day "DOA" policy. So, if by chance you've only had it 29 days, you should rush to the bell store and tell them your newish phone couldn't handle a stock ICS update and they will swap it out. I tried updating mine (stock rom via kies) 5 hours after I bought it and I could never turn it on again... Complete brick. Bell store swapped it out no questions (I did not have the optional insurance).
If your past 30 days... See above post

Ok so, Galaxy note 2 Gt-n700.
One day randomly turns off (not rooted/flashed). Go to turn the device back on and it gets stuck in a boot loop on the first screen, keep rebooting till it ran out of battery.
tried to go into recovery mode Vol up +middle +power. Nothing.
Then tried the other one.. Vol down + middle + power
hit continue at the firmware install and get RPMB: INVALID RPMD Data
Now googling this comes across alot of advice for PIT files and ODIN. when i tried to "install" this it comes up with an error that i cannot remember at the moment on ODIN basically saying cant its broke.
I have now got the phone saying that there is a firmware update and to connect to KIES and do emergency recovery. The damn phone will not connect to KIES and i have reinstalled KIES and all the drivers 500 times. Tried all usb ports.
Now im about 5 minutes from throwing this phone off a wall.
Can anyone help.
Much helps needed.
What ROM did you use before that happened?
If you not on 4.3 bootloader, try to flash oldest stock, one file, firmware through odin.

Is your phone still going in bootloops?Try to enter download mode by pressing volume down+home button without pressing power and see if still goes into download mode.If it does then your power button is faulty.Two scenarios to that either power button is stuck on "pressed" mode which you can resolve by taking out the cover and screws and pushing out the power button (look up youtube video) or worse the power button needs to be replaced totally.If power button is working fine try what the above user stated flash the previous working stock version or flash the latest 4.4.2 stock ROM and see if it bootloop is resolved.
im having the same problem how did you fixed it ??
Hello Everyone!
First of all, let me say that i'm desperately in need of help with my phone. Here's what happened to it so everyone knows.
My Phone was bought in UAE and was given to me, i live in the Philippines and it was working fine, i can use it on everyday tasks Until, a few days ago my phone performed updates (auto updates) which made it froze, i tried to press and hold the power button but it doesn't turn off. I removed the battery and restarted my phone then all i get is the Boot screen. I went to recovery mode to perform a wipe/factory reset. it returned with a lot of errors about files missing, etc etc...
At that point i thought that my phone might have been updating the OS when it froze so i DLed a stock firmware because i can still go to download mode.
After a day (crappy internet + limited download speed from sammobile) i finished the firmware download then tried going to download mode on my phone but now, my phone doesnt turn on at all. when i press and hold power+down vol+home nothing happens. i tried going back to recovery mode and still nothing happens. Even if i just press the power key nothing happens at all. I tried charging the phone but its not charging as well, The Battery Icon is not showing on the screen anymore but after minutes f charging i can feel my phone getting warmer.
Anyone experienced this issue before or knows how to fix it? i do not believe that the battery died because it was working just a day before.
Any help and TIPS would greatly help.
again: I cannot go to download/recovery mode nor go to the boot screen.
Hello there,
Try to connect your phone to PC and press power button / vol / home button simultaneously, if PC still recognize your phone, then you still got chance to recover it using Octoplus software?
