Won't boot!

I just received my T-Mobile galaxy S2 an hour ago, no root... completely stock.
I powered it down and tried to turn it back on... but the screen is just black nothing will bring it back.
tried volume + power to get into recovery... nothing
is this thing dead? or am i missing a hard reset?
Help?

Take the battery out for 2 minutes. put it back in. Do not turn it on. Then plug it into the charger for 10 minutes and then power it on. Might sound like joke but I'm dead serious.
**EDIT**
Its possible the things battery just died. If its completely dead it wont do anything I've scared myself like this once as well. If this does not work try download mode. The fact alone its not rooted tells me it might just need some more charging time.

What about download mode? Maybe the thing wanted a custom ROM from the get go lol

No download mode either. Doesn't even show the green charging battery.

my phone doesnt turn on or shows me any indications of charge…when plugged into mac it disables the usb ports saying that some device is using large power so they are disabled to prevent computer from damaging…pls help me
i am going mad without my nexus feeling like i am in hell….
i even tried that pulling battery out then connecting and then inserting the battery but nothing seems to work…i am totally out of ind because i live in india so cant even get a new battery todo something it really hurts
NO USE OF A PC TOOO….THATS simply annoying i feel as if my fingers are cut god please help me:crying::crying::crying:

God this is happening quite a lot now...

I had the same issue for quite a time, but seem to have solved it just now.
My phone only charged when the power was off. When the phone was turned on it didnt charge. So what I did was turn off the phone > let it charge for like an hour > than turn on the phone while it's loading.
Let me know if it worked. Good luck!!

try a different charger before ordering the battery , switch off phone take out the battery and clean the golden stuff i mean the connector and of the phone using a cotton bud, connect it back and see if it charge well now

Try charging with different cable...I found that the original cable tend to get damage quite easily.

*FIXED* hi,i just unrooted and put original firmware back on and hey presto its charging,weird,thanks for help

Galaxy S3 wont turn on or charge but connects to the computer

Hello, I have an sgh-i747 it was running task650s rom and one day it just randomly shut off. I tried everything and was told to buy a jig to put the phone into download mode. I bought a jig, plugged it in, still nothing. When I plug it into the computer it shows up as QHSUSB_DLOAD #3 (im using a mac).
What should I do next? All I did was plug the jig into the USB but nothing happened.
This is the jig I bought

Is your warranty up? Did you try a different battery? Sounds like a hardware failure. How long were you running tasks650 before the problem occurred? Did you flash the ROM that is specific to AT&T? You could try contacting josh at mobiletechvideos.com. Head to his site and chat with him as he's quite knowledgeable. I don't use a mac so i'd have no idea what that error code means. Sorry i wasn't much help. Good luck

-Warranty is long gone.
-Yup tried a different battery and a different charger
-I've been running the rom for over 2 years
-Yes it was the correct one
-tHANKS ill give him a try
-I dont think its an error code its just what the device shows up in mac

When I plug in the phone without the battery the orange light pops up does that mean its not a charging problem?

It does sound like a hardware rather than firmware issue. Did you try another battery in the phone or try the current battery in another device? If it isn't something as simple as a completely dead battery, it could be a short somewhere on the motherboard.

Yup tried another battery and tried the current battery in another phone and it worked fine.
I did change the sim card reader when I first got the phone like 2 years ago maybe something is shorting out the MB now I'll check it out

I just got my phone back from Josh. My power button was shorted on the board so he fixed me right up. The symptoms on my phone were it would get to Samsung screen and subsequently power off. Same in DL mode so it could very well be that your power button is shorted in a manner which it just won't power on at all. Hopefully that's all it is. 40 bucks and you're back up and running

I'm thinking about getting away from Samsung next go around and thinking about the nexus. What do you think? You like nexus better than s3?

No complaints here. Its better in mostly every way (battery life, speed, looks etc). Best part is not having to put a custom rom on it since its a nexus. Only thing the Galaxy beats it in is that it has a removable battery so you could carry around two batteries. I got a 2amp car charger and the phone charges pretty quickly on the car charger and home charger.

If can't enter download mode anymore, you are left with two options:
1. Buy a USB jig and see if u can enter download mode.
2. If can't enter download mode even after that, you need to send it to your nearest service centre.
