Need help
Yes this is in the wrong fourm but its hardware so it may help
@Mod please do excuse me
I just got my friends ray and it has a display problem
The thing is ; The display lights up but nothing can be seen on screen :/
After shaking it a bit it SOMETIMES shows the display
No cracks or anything on the display:O
Any fix ?
Im guessing its hardware but ill just use wotan server for a try
EDIT; Used wotan server flash .238 didnt work >_<
EDIT: Sometimes when I remove the battery when the screen goes dark and put it in again
And it works fine :O
But then it starts again :/
So its hardware for SURE 100%
Any fixes ?
Has he damaged it some way (dropping it?)?
If possible, use warranty, else open it yourself and seek for loose wires.
There aren't any visible signs :O
What i was thinking is Deliberately brick the phone during Software update and say it isnt starting
Should work

What if there is some sort of circuit shorting? If the problem is physical...u can check the battery terminals for any fault...or may be it is due to moisture...now don't think of me as a fool...its just my thought...so try some kind of drier to demoisturize...hope it fixes the problem if my assertion is correct.
Weird advice...isn't it?

I think most moisture problems are permanent. Everything is worth trying though.

I dont know whats wrong, but just because its rooted, does not mean you cant return it. If its a hardware issue it will still be covered. But it sounds like maybe a bad battery

I have heard this issue alot on xda, and i'll say its pretty much bricked, if you can't turn it on or get into the bootloader or recovery tmobile/wind/htc wouldn't be able to, other people with the same issue said they got it replaced with no problems, so you got nothing to worry about
Buy a new battery.

Its not bricked dude, its a battery failure. See my thread, I've got the same issue, its solved by replacing the batttery..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561104
You can call up HTC North America [email protected] 866-449-8358 if you are in US, they will ship you the battery free of cost.
When I called them up they asked me to ship the phone back, however I had also had unlocked the bootloader voiding the warranty, so I took a chance and told them I tested the phone at local tmo center it works with replacement battery (even though I hadn't)...they said no need to ship the phone then...we'll have the battery sent out to you...and it arrived in 3 business later although I had to wait quite long as there was weekend in between...
BTW what ROM/Kernel/recovery combo were you using before it died ?

We can't blame NRGZ's ROM for it, as its the most popular ROM for this phone and to my knowledge just the ROM can't cause such a bug, the kernel might (even i'm not sure for that but still)...can any devs (Adjust? ) give their opinion on it ?

Hello all,
yesterday something weiiiird happened to me.
i was changing the screen protector on my phone, once done i notice the phone was off (i changed the screen protector with phone on), so i thought i might have swiched it off without noticing it, but it doesn't turn on anymore.
tried to leave the battery out for a while but nothing
tried to put on charge but nothig
tried my wife's battery but nothing
no lights on the screen at all, completely dead.
just for info i was dualbooting cm9 and official 4.0.3 three operator ics with success, had no problem at all used it for a few days.i removed yellow triangle and reset counter with triangle away app about a week ago, not a sigle problem bu this weird this yesterday.
any suggestions ?? i have a jig but it doesn't do anything (maybe it because i'm on ics??, don't know)
please help guys..
It sounds like a hardware problem and I don't think that you are able to solve it yourself! The SGS2 is a tough phone and very hard to brick and when you haven't changed anything there is no other option than a hardware problem.
Have you tried to enter download mode? Volume up + home button while booting. When this doesn't work there is no way out and you have to send it to a repair service. But that shouldn't be a problem, because they won't be able to boot your phone, too.
Hope that helps!

Be aware if they manage to boot it up and see cm on there it probably will void your warranty and possibly be a costly repair if the fault isnt hardware just a thought. Hope it doesnt come to that for you though

Hey, everyone.
I'm trying to fix my brother's Active and not having much luck. I've been doing intermediate level android stuff since the HD2, so I'm not quite a rookie at troubleshooting. He said that he was at school, checked his texts, then the screen went out. So, that's where I'm at. I can't even really tell if it's a software error or a hardware error. The phone turns on, vibrates and the LED lights and that's about it.
Thanks for any help
Looks like it's bricked... but I'm not expert enough to say that for sure.

If you had unlocked bootloader: Flashtool
If you had locked bootloader: Update Service and try repairing the firmware.
Both ways, you lose your data.

See my tutorial to root (Check Signature). There in the first step, you will learn how to flash a ROM using flashtool. Choose and firmware of your choice, and taking help of the tutorial flash it using flashtool.
For another tutorial you can check someguyfromhell's sticky at this forum.

No, thankfully I didn't make THAT mistake, or my previous post probably would have been my last ever. I charged it and, unfortunately, am back to square one. Same as the original problem

The phone does absolutely nothing except vibrate a tiny bit when you turn it on. So the most frustrating part, to me, is I can't really tell if it's a hardware error or software. I'm leaning toward software because even after I let it boot for a long time, I can't get the screen or any of the buttons to cause a vibration. BUT I also don't know if my brother had it set to vibrate on the lock screen like I always do.
From messing around with Flashtool I found out the bootloader is unlocked, but nothing custom has been done to it.

Okay,let says the screen got problem.the screen just have blank display right?

After turn on wait for a few minutes and the try to call it.if the phone rings.the display surely defective.

Hmm I think you can open your phone (DON'T DO IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH HARDWARE) and take the LCD screen and take it to nearest service shop to check whether it's working or not...and other possibility that your phone screen cannot be turn on is the screen power might got shot and burnt (like black out in a house,the power supply is shot )

Hello,
I have the following problem and I'm wondering if it is solvable:
My Galaxy S2 (actually from a friend) was rooted and working fine on ICS.
Then I wanted to install a custom rom (Resurrection Remix 3.0.9 Jelly Bean).
It is not my first time doing this as I've did it a multiple times on my own S2.
The same ROM is working fine on my own S2.
Somewhere around 50% of installation, the phone turned itself off.
We did make sure that the battery was fully charged before proceeding with the installation.
Now I cannot Start it.
Can't enter Recovery Mode.
Can't enter Download Mode.
The screen just remains black as if there is no battery in it.
Swapped battery, but still same issue.
It doesn't even show the charging animation when power cable is plugged in.
I have ordered a USB JIG to put it in Download Mode from MobileTechVideos.com but I don't think this will work because there is no sign of life.
It is obviously hard bricked.
What could I do to fix this problem?
Thank you
Sad to say but you have to avail JTAG services to sort this out

Which method did you use? Also, do you have your firmware/baseband/version of ICS the phone was running when this happened? If its the emmc brickbug, dont waste your money on a jig or JTAG. Neither will be of any use.

That's not very good news but at least I know now.
btw yes, it was ICS 4.0.4
I've rooted a couple of android phones without any trouble.
I honestly didn't know that this bug existed even though I searched on the net for the risks before I started it.
I guess Samsung will not fix this under warranty?

Thats why everyone keeps screaming to read up before rooting, mate. Its kinda hard to miss, every third thread seems to have a mention of it. And a sticky in the general section.
Anywho, whats done is done. Bad luck I guess. If you're under warranty, theres hope yet. You can take it to them saying it randomly died out and you have no idea how or why. Since the motherboard is toast, they have no way of figuring out you rooted it (or tried to). Say it happened when you kept it to charge or something. You could get lucky. :fingers-crossed:
Use the thanks button instead of typing out a post.
Hope it works out. Good luck. :good:
If your still under warrenty they usually repair it for you, had mine repaired recently. they will replace the motherboard. Good Luck
I am not sure this was posted or not, however if it has, please point me to the right direction as I am not able to find it.
Situation:-
Using the phone as per normal. It auto lock or manual lock it. Wanna unlock/wake up the phone it doesnt. This happened once in awhile not sure when as unable to determine the cause as sometimes running a game and I lock it and sometimes lock it without running anything i.e. back to home. To wake up, I reboot the phone by long pressing on/off button. Was using CheckRom ICS... And at one occurance the phone really died on me and unable to reboot no matter what I did. Sent in to SC and got back a new Motherboard.
Now it is happening again. Now in JB 4.1.2 (OmegaRom). The phone just fell in to a deep sleep and cant wake up unless I reboot the phone. I hope I dont get the forever slumber/sudden death situation again.
Anyone can give guidance or advise on how to check what is the matter or anyone having the same experience?
Flash back to stock and check if it occurs. If it does use triangle away and send it back in mate

I don't recall it happened to me while using stock touchwiz roms.
However, since I've moved to AOSP roms (first AOKP M1 and then JellyBam), it happened to me 3 or 4 times now.
Do you get it also on touchwiz roms? Which OmegaRom are you using?
Wich kernel are using my mates? Maybe that is problem, combination firmware and kernel...
Regards
using latest OmegaRom... as mentioned... first happened in CheckROm and even in Wanam...
Was using siyah kernel... so now testing Perseus and see wtr this happened or not...
Just happened when I have monster warlord running and locked it.. when I unlock... it happened again... must be something like not enuf ram or went into deep sleep... very strange indeed. Nevertheless change to Perseus to test out different kernel for now...

Same happened with my phone. Go to see what it's up to and suddenly its not responding. The only option is to hold power down until it reboots.
It would also do it on in coming calls and managed to delete a text which arrived shortly before it froze.
Hoped upgrading to the latest firmware would help, didn't. Going without root, nope. Freezing apps in Titanium, still no joy.
Finally this morning I had enough and went for a full wipe. Very little installed but no problems since.
Would suggest doing the same, especially if you plan to sell the phone anyway.

Have the same problem with mine, using the latest wanam stock rom and every now and again the phone will either just restart or lock with the screen off (led notification will keep blinking however).
Just trying the official Vodafone rom now through Odin. If this doesn't solve it I think the phone will have to go back.
To note: issue appeared after installing some root apps. Notably adfree and beats drivers. Anybody else have either installed?

When did it happen? Was it around Wednesday last week? Just thinking that maybe an updated app or something?
I have now updated again using kies with the official 4.1.2. I have no problems with restarts when using the stock apps. I have however had issues with the google servers and now believe this to have been the main reason for the crashes earlier (Christmas new phone activation traffic?).
Out of interest, have you been running adfree or the beats audio driver? I had mine working all day yesterday, installed both and then the hangs started coming back again.
Also worth noting that adfree now states that a newer version is available when loading up, but non exists (that i know of?)

And about culture my friend I don't need a lesson from a person who doesn't even have the sensibility to understand that his comments can hurt others(u started It fIrst)..
As today Is my last day in the s3 forum I don't want to sign off on a bitter note so sorry if I have hurt u in anyway.

I can't say for sure, but around Wednesday isn't unreasonable.

I do run AdFree, and yeah, I saw the notice about the new version - it's a different app entirely... still called AdFree, uninstall the old one, and install the new one. Not sure why they did that.
I'm at a loss - I just reinstalled XELL4, and it's still doing it. Short of doing a full wipe and starting afresh (which I really can't be bothered with), I don't know what else to try. Was working fine up until now.
