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

-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

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.
I've bought my phone for 1 year. Today i buy a new battery for t999 on samsung.com
I replace it, then i can't turn on it. I connected it to the charger many times and it just appear the battery icon
Sometime it turn on into the main screen (only charging and press the power button) then turn off in 2s . I can't do anything when the phone not connect to the charger.
What can i do now ???
P/s: Sorry about my English. It's quite bad.
Does the same happen with the old battery?

Can you get into download mode?

Does it try to turn on by itself when you put the battery in?

Yes, but it also can't turn on more than it turn on by itself. I have to connected many times !
I believe you have a bad power button. This has been happening a lot lately and the fix is to replace the power switch.

Plug it in to charge for a while (1 hr or so), then hold down the power button + volume up for 20 seconds or so and see if it comes back to life.

Flashing red led means battery is dead, needs charging.
Try a different charger.

okay i got my friend's charger and when i plugged it in it showed a picture of battery charging, i guess this is a good sign. Idk how it worked even though both chargers have an output of 5V and 2.5A... anyways thank you all
Maybe bad usb cable. The HTC charger should be 1.5a not 2.5a.

afaik it doesn't make a real difference. The phone caps it's limits at its max level so its no problem to use a charger with a higher amperage like 2,5
Hi people . I'm desperate.
I have a Tab S T800 and i still did not know what happened .
I turned off the tablet and when i cam and get it to turn it on again ... nothing happened .
Since , i tried everything to turn it on .... All the combinations of buttons and etc. Home + Power + Vol up , Vol down + Home + Power, Power + Menu touch button, Plugged on PC , unplugged , on the original charger , on a parallel charger .....
And NOTHING has happened to the tablet ... the screen is black .... and the tablet did not fall , did not got wet , did not got overheated ....
What Could i do ? I have very important data in it and i can not lose ... The tablet still under warranty ....
I appreciate all the help.... and i already looked on the forum for solutions...i didn't found one at least that works...
Thank you all.
Sorry for my bad english...i'm Brazilian.

Try home+power+vol up+vol down and hold it for 1-2 minutes or until something happens? Try it also while it's plugged in.

1. Home + Vol up + Power.
2. Home + Vol down + power
3. Home + Vol down and Vol up + power.
4. Menu Touch button + Power.
And i did all this connected on PC, Disconnected, Connected on a original Wall Charger and on a parallel wall charger.
Do you even get the noise on the pc to detect that something is connected?

Hi Gustavo,
Sorry I'm new member but may be able to help you with this.
I had a similar experience with my son's tab 3 kid's edition last year.
It just died and wouldn't turn on. I tried everything but no luck. I then decided to take the tablet back to samsung store and packed it. I was suppose to go the store 2 days later but after 48 hours of device dying I just thought of trying to turn it on and plugged it in to the wall charger.
To my surprise display came on showing red battery icon and after 30 mins approx, device showed green battery icon still charging. after roughly 10 hours I turned the device on and it works flawlessly since then.
Hope this helps.

Hi! Thanks for the help! But before i make this topic i waited for 3 days to put tablet on a charger.... nothing happened =/ But i'm gonna try again!
I had a similar problem.
Do you know how to separate the screen from the body? I found that the connector at the base of battery was very loose. I managed to push it down and it turned on right after.
Hope this helps!
Whilst I agree it could be a loose connector, it would void your warranty. I would see about going to your local samsung repair centre and see if they can have a look without wiping.
This happend to my 8.4 last week, no way to revive but i can feel warm at the back while doing all the first aid trix but no luck. So i decided to bring it to the nearest samsung store w/repair service they remove the back cover and battery, they told me they just ¿¿refresh start?? the battery? because it was drained!!?? wtf i remeber i left it with 30% charge... but anyway they fixd it in less than an hour. But yesterday the symptom returnd again i have to power+down+home just to turn it on :/
Plug in the charger then press power + vol down (not up). Hold for a good while until it restarts.
If it doesn't then it could be hardware related.
With so many people reporting battery problems, you might just have a bad battery and that's why it gets hot when connected to a charger. *I* would open it and check the battery's connection and maybe even replace the battery.
I saw some videos...but i don't want to void warranty :/

I'm gonna try this... but
How much is this "good while" ?
I have a Zenfone 2 551, 2GB/16GB. Bought it 45 days ago. I bought an Asus Fast Charger later on. The first time I wanted to use the new fast charger the phone turned off.
I change to a regular charger and the led turned on (I had 40% battery at the time). Left the phone charging (standard original Asus Charger) and the battery instead of charging is loosing charge. Even with the led turned on.
Eventually the battery died. I tried other chargers. 1 out 10, maybe a got the led back on, but the battery stayed on 0% and wasn't enough to even turn on the phone
I've read several people having this same issue.

In one of the post someone wrote this tip
Thanks for the reply. But after a long day of stressing, it worked by itself. I read from an article about another android with quick charging that the USB could have not been all the way in in the adapter which, in my opinion, it was but regardless I repeatedly unplug and plug(15 mins -30 mins interval)... did the same with the phone plug and unplug till I saw the battery level going up
It didn't worked for me!
I've already tried:
a. Changing chargers and cables
b. Pressing power for 20 seconds
c. Pressing volume up + power
d. Plugging and unplugging the phone every 15 minutes
I bought the phone while visiting the US (I don't live there).
Has anyone else had this kind of problem, and was able to fix it?
Thanks
Can you confirm if the ASUS adapters/USB cables work with other USB devices? Have you tried charging from a PC? If so, unfortunately this issue sounds like a hardware related issue and will require sending on for warranty service. Please feel free to contact me direct at [email protected] if you have any questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
ASUS_USA
my phone died yesterday like that. i connect my phone to my computer with Asus usb cable the one comes with phone. my phone screen cracked about 1 month ago but it was not disturbing me so i didn't repaired it. right now nothing works on the phone.. at the moment i connect my phone it turned off and for 1 sec battery screen appaired then nothing. can't see my phone when i connect to pc with adb or something like that too so i think problem is more then screen but any idea ? @Asus_USA @Asus

The guy uses a metal tip pin to release the battery connector? seems that is risky and may short something out. These asus phones have so many issues, that's for sure.
