Hey, I have a problem with an old HTC Desire of my brother: Yesterday the phone was charging and then just crashed. When i power it on, the HTC-screen appears and just after that the screen turns black. Then I have to pull out the battery to be able to do this again.
The screen flickers when the bootscreen is displayed an gets darker before it goes finally black. I think the battery is empty, because the pins in the charging socket are twisted, so I think the battery wont get charged.
If I press the back button and power this menu appears, but then the phone also shuts down. If I press volume down and power the bootscreen appears but the phone turns off before I can see the bootloader
ROM: Cyanogenmod 7
S-Off, Root
What do you think? My brother says that the phone was almost fully charged when it crashed, but when I plug in the charger now the LED normaly shing red is not on..
Edit: I managed to get to the cyanogenmod screen, but then it turned off. Im pretty sure it is the battery
Any help?

ok so earlier today my s3 ran out of battery and shut off. I attempted to charge it, but noticed the red indicator light wasn't on. I tried to turn the device on, but all it did was vibrate and show the battery level logo with the circle in the middle as if its computing the battery level, then shuts back off. most of the time it will just vibrate and loop the samsung logo and then shut off again. sometimes it also shows that my battery is nearly fully charged after i left it on the charger while i was in class, but then shuts off. the farthest it has showed anything on start up was the at&t logo with the white background, then it shuts back off. i've tried to boot the phone connected to the charger and took the battery out, that didn't work. tried to take the battery out and leave it for 10 mins and put it back in, that didn't work. although it would vibrate everytime i put the battery in. i also tried to boot the phone in recovery mode. it would say recovery mode booting in blue letters, then it would go to the samsung and galaxy s3 logos, but then shut off again. also tried the download mode boot up, but i just saw the OS warning screen for a second, then it shut off.. i've ran out of ideas on what to do. hoping anyone could provide anymore advice for me. thanks in advance!
Hello,
I am having an issue with my S 3. It is not booting up as it should. The model is SGH-1747M.
I have tried the following and have had the following results:
1) The phone is non-responsive when attempting to power it on with the power button.
2) If I remove the battery, with the phone not plugged in, and then put the battery back in, the phone begins to power on by itself. It vibrates once and then loads to the Samsung screen and then goes off.
3) If I plug the phone in without the battery, the phone vibrates once and the red charging light comes on but then goes off after a couple seconds.
4) If I plug the phone in without the battery, and then insert the battery as soon as the red light comes on, the charging screen comes on but then the phone goes off after a couple seconds.
5) If I put the battery in with the phone unplugged and hold Volume Down, Power and the Home Button, the phone boots to the screen where you can push up on volume to flash new firmware. If I stay on this screen without pressing anything, the phone turns off after a couple seconds. If I push up on the power button, it goes to the screen with the green android man but then turns off after a couple seconds.
6) If I put the battery in with the phone unplugged and hole Volume Up, Power and Home and then release them on the Samsung screen, blue writing pops up in the top left corner (I couldn’t read quick enough what it says) while still on the Samsung screen and then it loads to a screen saying Samsung Galaxy S III and then the phone turns off.
These problems started when I attempted to connect my phone to my laptop to transfer songs over to it. I connected the phone and the battery was charging, but it wasn’t showing up as connected on my laptop. So, I turned the phone off to restart it but when I went to turn it back on, these issues started.
The phone was rooted and has been for the last 7 months without any changes to the firmware or updates to the firmware in that time period and has not encountered any problems prior. I’m not sure what firmware the phone was on prior to this.
If anyone could offer any assistance with this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
I'm no expert, but it looks like a faulty/stuck power button. It's normal for the phone not to completely boot up when it is powered off and then plugged in to USB. But it is not normal for the phone to reboot itself when in recovery or in Android. That's why I think the power switch might be the cause.
Hi,
My S4 SGH-M919 is having a problem where it appears to turn on, charge, and boot to the OS, but there is no response from the screen. The bottom buttons illuminate but the screen doesn't want to turn on. I've tried removing the battery and holding the power button down for an X-number of seconds, but this doesn't seem to do the trick.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
With the phone powered off, connect the phone to the charger. If you see the charging animation, sounds to me like the screen may be damaged or the LCD/motherboard connector is loose.
Was the phone every dropped or bumped?
Hey all,
I just helped a friend change the screen of his Desire 816. The old screen was badly damaged and we got a LCD and digitizer combo and I changed it successfully, or so I thought. When its off and I connect it to its charger, It lights up and displays the HTC logo, followed by the battery charging animation. All looks OK.
Then I press the power button. The screen goes off, phone vibrates and switches on BUT THE SCREEN STAYS OFF. I can tell the phone boots because the HTC boot sound plays and the phone vibrates a little after from some notification or other and my PC recognises the phone normally. But I can't use the screen at all. I have to do a battery pull to switch off the phone or wait till the battery runs out. And when I connect the charger again while its off.... HTC logo...
I'm so frustrated right now. My friend isn't saying anything but he's not happy. I'm hoping there's something I forgot to do or something. Can anyone help me, please?
Anyone? Please?....

yahoo mail app showed something like allow access to your contacts I clicked no
Android system briefly shows a message 'uh-oh, something went wrong'
screen fades to black, pressing power button will not bring it back
pulled the battery
now on power on LG then T-Mobile logo shows, but after that just black screen
green notification button blinks twice.
pressing power button, plug and unplug usb power does nothing.
plugging phone to linux PC it shows LG phone but when mounted usb folder shows nothing inside (usb debugging not turned on, phone is stock not rooted).
