Yeah probably just needs a charge mate. Plug it in and see what happens.

Is my phone updating to Jelly Bean OTA or frozen? (Virgin Canada)

Hello everybody
Strangest thing just happend. My two weeks old Nexus just froze up, and I had to take the battery out to restart it. I keep it in an Otterbox so it was a little bit of a job. I get everything taken apart, get the battery out. I pop the battery back in and turn the phone on. While the phone is starting up, I put on the battery cover on the back. It is a little tricky so it takes a little while to get back in place. When I turn the phone around and look at the screen this is what I see. (see picture)
The text in the botton left corner says:
OMAP-Samsung HW Information
Board Name: tuna REV 9
Board Rev: HSPA - 9
Boot Type: USB MMC
Device Type: HS
Build date: Nov 14 2011 16:56:21
TL;DR: Had the battery out. Now the phone is frozen on this screen.
The phone is frozen up and has been for about 15 minutes. What should I do? Restart it again or wait?
Thanks in advance!

It looks like you accidentally booted to Odin mode, should be able to just press the power button. If that doesn't work then try to take out the battery, put it back in and turn it back on. You get to that screen by holding the volume down button and the power button while the phone is off.

S3 doesn't turn on when plugged in

Whenever I try to turn on s3 when it's charging and powered off it shows the Samsung logo then goes back to showing the charging logo and doesn't turn on. Anyone else experiencing this?

Its normal. Acts weird if u try to turn it on when plugged in the s2 was the same way. U have to let go of the power at just the right moment. Best way to get around it is to hold the button combo for download mode(vol down+home+pwr) when the warning comes up just hit vol down and it will boot as normal
You have to hold power until it vibrates.
I do hold it until it vibrates but it still loops back to the charging screen

I had the same issue last week. Couldn't get it to boot at all, I was able to go in download mode but it quickly powered back off. I ened up taking it into BestBuy as i just signed up for their insurance. They gave me a new phone out of box after trying themselves to get it to boot.

[Q] Hard bricked or soft bricked?

OK so I felt my phone continuously vibrating in my pocket, so I held the power button because that usually makes it stop vibrating and start powering up. However, this time it just keeps vibrating. So I took the battery out and when I put it back in, the phone automatically turned on and the Samsung logo came on the screen. But before it could get to the cynanogenmod logo on the screen the phone shuts down and keeps on vibrating. It won't go into download or recovery mode without shouting off or vibrating. And more recently it won't go into the modes at all. But like three strange things are happening. 1. It will start up, show the Samsung logo, and then the cynanogenmod logo but will get stuck on the cynanogenmod logo and will go back to vibrating. 2. I got it to completely start up, I could see the home screen and everything but then the phone froze, turned off, and started vibrating. 3. I decided to try and charge it because it stop vibrating and I thought it was dead. And when I hooked it up, it showed the screen with the battery loading. But only for 30 seconds at the most.
So I was wondering is there anyway I can fix this?
Ok so if this were to happen to me i would kill the battery, plug chatter into computer, take out battery ands put back in plug phone into charger and hold volume up and down button and see if you can get into download mode. Iff you can then just use Odin to stock the phone. Off not then idk what to say.

Thanks for replying but I can't get into download or recovery mode.
Sounds awfully similar with this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1783404
If your power button is having issues, it can be repaired. So you are not soft or hard bricked. It is just a faulty button. Some people managed to unstuck the button with a small screwdriver.
Sounds like your power button is stuck, there was a thread about this issue and I think a fix, do a quick search on power button sticking.

Thanks for the suggestion. But I've tried wiggling the power button around and it doesn't work.
Thanks guys, I'll search around. But I'm starting to give up hope because I've messed with the power button and it doesn't seem to be stuck. But really thank you.
It's the actual switch on the logic board, it needs to be replaced. Cheers

Probably a decharged battery in the box. with the old firmware it wont charge while off and when you plug it in, it boots up and uses too much battery to keep itself on, so it shuts down. try holding Volume + , home button and then powering on. this should take u to the recovery, which uses less battery and might be able to charge up a bit.
Edit: HOLD (VOLUME + AND HOME BUTTON TOGETHER, THEN PUSH/HOLD THE POWER BUTTON) once it boots into a recovery mode, u can let go, MAKE SURE TO KEEP YOU TABLET PLUGGED IN.
If that doesn't work, take it back and demand a new one.

Galaxy S6 Black Screen?

Today in class, i was playing a game on my phone before we started the lesson, and i left it on my desk to start working and the phone's screen faded to black after a lack of usage for 2 minutes. After 5 minutes i went back to my phone but it wouldn't turn on. I tried holding the power button to reset it, i've tried holding down the home button, power button, and the volume down and up keys but it doesnt do anything. It doesnt even vibrate. It turned into a brick for no reason at all. The only thing this brick does anymore is have LED light blink blue every 5 seconds or so. I was on 77% power when it started doing this so battery shouldnt even be a problem. Anyone have any ideas why this thing started doing this?
Try holding the volume down key and power key, not home key. That is the general reset method method. If that doesn't work try taking it to the store. S6 is a phone with lots of bugs =(
