Hey all,
I have an ATT Samsung Galaxy Note 10+. It was working fine, plugged into the wall to charge, and then all of a sudden it just shut off. The screen went black, I saw the ATT splash screen and then it turned off, and I cannot get it back on. When I try to start it like normal, all I see is a faint line that shows up intermittently. Any help is appreciated.
When you plug it in are you able to see the charging animation?

No... nothing.....I tried to hit volume up and power, and one of the splash screens appeared for a split second, but other than that I havent been able to get it to do anything.

I don't know sounds like a hardware thing to me probably will have to get up with Samsung about that.
Maybe someone else will chime in ideas. Sorry I couldn't help you more.
Sounds crazy but try using a computer to charge. It may need a lower wattage charger. And also see if the computer recognize it

Good point he said it was charging I just assumed it was. Are you positive the charger was actually working?

Yeah sounds like it. My fault I forgot the most basic rule of troubleshooting look at the simple stuff first :laugh::laugh::laugh: I should have asked the obvious questions even though you said it was charging. Glad you got it figured out

try leaving it on the charger a while... but I'm sorry to say that it sounds like a brick. If it won't take a charge, you won't be able to odin anything. I had a similar issue and the battery would get real hot on the charger but it wouldn't charge so I couldn't flash anything.
good luck my friend

I'm hoping its not a brick, i left it on the charger and was getting warm. This sucks how did it even brick
guys help me.
what the hell do you want help with? Find a way to way to charge your battery and Odin something.
Need more details than "my battery died".
Are you rooted, what rom, kernel and recovery? What did you do leading up to this point? What have you done to try to remedy the problem?
Cover the basics and you might get an answer
There could be two possible problem
1.Battery is not charged - maybe usb cable is bad. Try charge with another cable
2.Battery is bad or dead - replace the battery.
To test couple of things, try to use different battery if you can find. If phone boots up, then you don't need to worry about the brick.

Yes I am rooted. My rom is MIJJz BLEND ICS 2.5 and Im using Rogue FC18. I was at work and texted my dad that I was off and at that time my battery was at 1%, well it died and ever since then it hasnt turned on. I have flashed anything since the 18th

If you were in my situation you'd be desperate for help
Im not sure if our phones are even capable of doing this but take out the battery and plug the charger into the phone without the battery essentially bypassing the battery. Its strange that the phone would just brick, it sounds like something more than that.
I tried that and it didnt work this sucks bro
Take out the SD Card if you have one. And I assume you have tried accessing the recovery menu while plugged in?

Also did you try to just try charging it via the usb on your computer?

That was the first thing I did, I can get into Odin but it says my battery is to low
How long are you leaving it on the charger? I know with some devices like ipod touches and stuff if they are really dead they need to sit on the charger for a while so they can gain enough power to boot up. However I will say my epic has gone dead over night before too and when I plug it in it goes right on. I would definitely take it to a sprint store. Make sure they have a repair center though otherwise they will want to mail it to samsung and then you will be without a phone for at least a week or two.
I have had batteries/phones in the past where they would only accept trickle charge after they were fully drained. My theory is since these batteries take more current as they get more depleted, they are refusing to charge because the current is higher than expected.
I have no idea if that is what is happening here, but you may want to try low current charging sources .5 amp or less.
You can try an external battery charger....if you have one. If not, find an extra charger and strip the end. Take the battery out of the phone and put the bare wire ends on the appropriate terminals on the battery and reinsert it, now you will be directly charging the battery. Its not very safe if you dont know what your doing, but I have done it before....I actually have a charger set up for this. Another option would be to tape the wire ends to the terminals.
Ok so I just tried to boot without battery on my device while plugged into the wall. It doesnt power nor do any lights come on. I think it may be your battery brother. I would suggest order a cheap one off ebay and have it ship as fast as possible just to check it for a solution. Or go to your sprint store with the battery only and tell them that it is not working and that you want to replace it and see what they say.
Sounds like a bad battery to me. I would try what the guy above me suggested. Get a extra battery from Ebay. Or take it to Sprint..

This happened to me. It was a bad recovery/kernel.
Find a way to charge your battery, boot into download mode, Odin a stock ROM from sfhub and start over.

Hey all,
Three days ago my phone (Galaxy Nexus, GSM) stopped turning on, and I cant quite figure out the cause. The only indicator I have to go on is that when I insert the battery into the phone, the notification light turns red (mostly, it was purple and light blue for a bit). Cant find anywhere that describes what this means or how to fix it.
Suggestions?
Water damage? Perhaps try a different battery.

Very similar, except it persists even when the battery and sim card have been removed for over 2 days, sometimes the light is different colors, and to my knowledge I didnt short it with a different adapter (was using the cord it came with for the past month)...

I have a SGSII E4GT and the battery just stopped charging. I have SlimBean Rom on and i was wondering if they will check any of that kinda of stuff or if they'll give me a new battery. There is no way to access the rom and all you see is the battery charging symbol so the only way anyone could know if i have a rom is if they turn the phone on.
Did you try different USB wires? It could be the port as well.

You could always buy 2 aftermarket batteries with an external charger for $20... Then you have spare batteries if you ever want/need them.
Then if the USB port is dead you can just flash a stock ROM.

How are you trying to charge the device? A wall charger or using usb on your pc? Depending on the kernel, usb charging via pc may be disabled by default in favor of some other service. You most likely will not receive a replacement battery unless you buy one yourself, in which case they arent even going to see your phone.

Nope got the phone from someone I was going to port it to ntelos but Im thinking I might have to get the port fixed first. Did yours have the red light and charging symbol. But not take a charge. And i sub already just thought I'd say that just incase you got it fixed and did post how.

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

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.

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.
Hi Folks, I have a problem with my Huawei Ascend P1. I tried to change the internal battery but I think while trying that, I might damage the phone. After I did that. I wont start up unless I plug it in, it only boots up to the Huawei Screen, vibrates and the turns off.
The funny part is it even boots up in that way without a battery (always plugged in).
The question is the following, what do you think is the problem here? Something got disconnected? May I have broken the battery flex or maybe the power button flex?
Thank you in advance
You probably have something disconnected, take out the battery and examine the area for any small wires and slots. This is usually the case, because the device stills boots when plugged in.
