Phone won't boot, vibrates

I cannot turn on my phone at all, the Samsung logo comes up, screen blacks out and the phone just vibrates once every couple of seconds. If I'm lucky the phone will sometimes boot up but freezes and turns back off. It's nearly impossible for me to boot into recovery and do anything as the phone shuts off seconds later. Anyone have any advice, I've looked all over and only found one other person with this problem and no fix

Are you doing the combo correctly, release power after vibrate continue holding volume keys? Did you drop the phone causing this? Try pulling battery first then try recovery

yeah, that thread had helpful info. i tried the one guy's suggestion of gently working a tiny flat-head screwdriver around the power button, and it fixed my issue.
hopefully it won't come back too often, but at least i know what it is (faulty power button) and can send it in for repairs if need be. at this point, i'm just relieved i have another chance to backup my data!

well, the issue came back, and working a screw driver around the button isn't solving the problem. it'll go away for a very short period of time, and then come back.
more recently, i've started losing settings for open apps when the phone reboots randomly. freaking awesome. just lost my handcent settings, and can't figure out where the config file/db is so i can restore it from a backup. looks like i'll have to spend another hour or more fully customizing the blasted thing again.

Its gotta be a bad motherboard I had same issue and Samsung warranty it out and fixed it for free or you can find em on eBay i just bought a used one for 90 and works perfect
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

Power button could be stuck again. I fixed mine my flicking it with my finger every second and finally my phone would start up again. Guess screw driver would have been easier, haha. Would work for a month then the same issue would start again. Do you happen to use a D30 case?

[Q] Keeps resetting, even on different ROM.

My phone started resetting by itself today. I was rooted on a ICS ROM I believe and now just unrooted to a JB ROM. Could this still be a software issue?

Did you flash anything? What rom /modem/kernel have you tried wiping and doing a fresh flash?

Take it to Sprint ASAP. This happened to me a few months after getting my phone and I got it replace right there the same day. If they try to screw you saying "the phone has a chip on the screen we can't test it out and take it apart" blah blah blah. Throw in there that the phone overheats while charging and when in use and they will change their tune quickly. When the S2 came out I got one that got extremely hot when charging almost to the point of blistering my hand without the battery cover. I took it back and they replaced it quick as hell lol. When I took it in for the power issue i had a small chip in the corner of my screen and they refused to replace the phone because they couldnt test the power button thing due to not being able to take apart the screen without causing further damage to the phone. They wouldn't budge even though I had issurance since day 1. Decided to tell them about the overheating issue and the tech told me hold on and came back in 5 minutes with a new white one (I had a black one) and I left the same day. Black was on backorder for 14 days and I was not going to have a phone that kept rebooting making it basicly useless for 2 weeks.
TL;DR Take it to Sprint ASAP. The Fix is free and mention it overheats to extreme temps and it'll be replace on the spot or when they receive a replacement from sprint. 3 days max.

Yeah it sounded like hardware for sure and if the fresh install didn't work your power button is jacked. "Graydiggy" +1

Nothing happens, the led doesnt even turn on...

Try this: plug in the phone, hold power and volume up and down for anywhere from 1 to 5 minutes and see if that works. When I got my One it was completely dead, no charge light, nothing. I was all set to return it when I found this solution in a help discussion thread. Took mine about 2 and a half minutes but it turned on.

I tried it with both volume up and down and still nothing?? Do you know if its common for things like this to happen or other problems occurring when a system reboot on twrp is done?

Did you do all three at the same time? That and the amount of time that you keep them pressed is the key here. Supposedly it resets the battery. No idea about the TWRP angle.

Yea i just tried both of em at the same time still nothing, ill keep trying though. And also im awake that rooting a phone voids the warranty but if im not able to even turn on the phone my provider most likely cannot either so do you think I could go get a new one if this problem persists??

If you're going to take it into a store, I'd think you're chances are pretty good that they'll give you a new one. Provided ,of course, that it's within whatever the return period is.

phone wont charge or turn on.
Hi,
I am having the same problem with my new HTC ONE. The phone ran out of battery so died, but wouldn't charge again - the charge light didnt come on, and so it won't turn on anymore. I didn't use twrp.
However I sent it to HTC Repair as they said it can be fixed under warranty and they sent it back to me in 10 days but it still didn't work. So I called up and they said send it to them again and now they said its a damage not under warranty. So they want £264 for repair! or £26 to return it. What should I do?
Is there any chance they'll fix it for free or shall I just pay £26 and try get it fixed elsewhere? I read online about how awful the customer service for the repair centre is but now its too late, they may have already purposely damaged my phone :'( I am so sad

[Q] Bricked my first GS4(^_^)

So I bricked a SGH-M919 :laugh: messing around an now it does not turn on. Hey I learned a lot.:highfive:
My Linux PC does not see it when I plug the phone in or windows. I tried Kies for the hell of it an it doesn't detect my phone either lol
The good thing is I have another one :good:
Last time I bricked a phone was my Sprint GS3 an i just took it in and they replaced it with a new GS3.
I am new to T mobile and I would like to know if anyone here knows how T Mobile would go about the whole my GS4 doesn't turn on now because of something I did? Or should I just say I lost the phone?
Anyways thanks in advanced.

Your best bet is to say you lost it, that way they will
not ask questions or even think about checking out
the phone or even looking at it.
It's a lot easier and faster to get a replacement that way.
Good luck!

I was messing around with this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install
Got it to work for a few mins an then it just froze on me and I had to pull the battery out to reset. After rebooting it just stayed on a black screen like if its not even on. I tried all that an nothing. Odin nothing. When i plug it in PC or charging outlet with original charger nothing happens either nor those it light up with charging battery icon.

First thing it says... "It is an experimental development snapshot that can potentially brick your device." Someone on xda already had a pretty good running Ubuntu rom released so you didn't have to mess around. From the sounds of it, seems you may have hard bricked it. Maybe I am being hopeful, but connect the phone to your computer and look for any hardware changes. Any sign of life? And to answer your other question, if it is indeed a hard brick, without a JTAG/jig you are screwed.

Send it in for repairs as the above poster said. It is better to drop some money on it than lieing to Tmo that you lost it... And I'm sure you would still have to pay the deductible. You are better off sending it in.

Phone died to 0%. Now it won't charge. Help?

My phone had strange battery behavior throughout the day yesterday. It discharged much quicker than usual. I charged it to 50%before bed and left it off the charger overnight.
This morning i woke up to a black screen, and a phone that won't charge. I tried a few different cords, outlets and other sources of power.
Anything i can try to fix this? I ordered a replacement, is there anything i can do to hide my s-off? I'm afraid I'm going to get charged for my replacement because I'm s-offed with a custom rom.

This sounds like a familiar problem with TWRP recoveries.... It sounds like you had an old version of CWM that may be broken with off mode charging.... Unfortunately your only chance may be to leave the phone on the charger for a day and see if it goes far enough tht you can get the phone to boot.

All they would have to do is put a new battery in it and turn it on, and then see its s-off. Which is what they WILL do in order to resell it as a refurb.

If you go through the carrier they can back charge your bill for voiding your warranty (exception being if this is an accidental damage exchange, in which case he will be charged a deductible). If he went through HTC he wont have a replacement by then unless he puts a deposit down on an advanced replacement, which he most likely wont get back when they see S-OFF/Unlocked.

If Verizon back charged for issues like this, there would be more than a dozen threads warning of it. Do a search. Many people have had phones unable to boot and have successfully gotten warranty replacements. Not a single one has yet to be back charged (or there would be a thread). If his phone boots he won't have to worry about it because there's no point in sending it in. If he sends it to HTC and they are able to get it to boot to see it is unlocked (S-off alone does not break warranty) they will notify him before any charges and send the phone back. At this point he will know the phone is able to boot up. Problem solved.
Edit: probably came off like a ****...not my intention at all. It's a community here and we're all just trying to help each other out.

So you weren't ever able to get it to boot by doing anything? There's been plenty of people on here who have gotten a replacement from Verizon because they've bricked their phone. I'm pretty positive you'll be fine. There would be threads on here already if Verizon was back charging.

Sounds weird but people have mentioned trying the power button and or power + vol down under a bright light. Something to do with the light sensor. Worth a shot at least.
