Dropped my Ray now wont boot past the Kernel screen?

Seems like a power issue almost.
The kernel screen will show, and then it shuts off. Sometimes it makes it to the bootloader screen if i have the USB cable in, then shuts off.
Guess its like it has been the whole time i had it buggy
Anyone wanna buy a half dead ray?
Have you tried flashing ftf files, another kernel, or something?
Nahh. Tired of messing with it. $100
It probably could be a hardware issue. Any ftf or kernel flashes can't help hardware problems.

Possible fix...
I had the same problem on my Ray, but i don't know what happened to it, all of sudden starts to bootloop... Sony logo, stands for a while and then reboot... tried flashing everything, but no luck... everything i did ened with bootloop... Now i'm a happy ray user again. This is what i did... Turn on the phone and left it boot-looping until it drained the battery, until completely dead (red blinking when try to turn on), then i connected it to a charger and suddenly it started working again!! but when i turned it off, it couldn't boot again... So i did the same thing, left the battery drain, but this time with SIM and microSD inside, and when i connected the charger, but this time it didn't boot... That'
s it, the phone stopped booting again so i left it on the charger bootlooping all night, and in the morning i disconnected it and left the battery drain, AGAIN... the time when i got home from work, the battery was drained, i connected the charger and it started again! I used the phone for a few days without powering off/reboot, and now it's all fine, it boots normally, i use PACMAN rom and it's wonderfull... Hope this helps...
What you did was exercised the battery !!!
This happens due to battery problem !!!
But in his case , he may need to try out a new or working battery !!!

Hello!
I have this problem with my s2.. I was browsing for my joy when suddenly the screen flashed couple times and my phone suddenly shut down (when battery was about 70%).
I already had this kind of problem but last time it was the battery (it swelled) but i replaced the battery and for a month or so everything was fine.
now with no warning it happened again!
I checked the battery its fine...
now when I boot my phone up it stays up for a minute or so and freeze or shutting down..

when its off and plugged to the charger its all fine looks like charging...
sometimes when it shows the samsung logo on boot I can see the the lights on the back button and menu button flickering and then shutting down.

ROM?Kernel?Did you try Factory reset or flashing stock ROM?
Are you using a genuine s2 battery or it's just a generic one?
It's a generic, isn't it?
Sent from the little guy
I did hard reset, now running Samsung's original ROM and stock kernel..
the battery is original..
somehow everything is now fine.. but I don't think that this is a normal problem.. it really freaked me out today.. I wanna know if any one knows what its all about and how to prevent it from happening.. thank you very much

[Q] s2 (gt-i9100) turned off without any warning / fault..

H-E-L-P !!!!!!!
someone help plz...
in november 2012 i bought s2 and after 10 months my s2 turned off without any reason.. i tried everything but my phone was not turning on... infact recovery and downlod mode were also not working... many posts on xda told me that my phone is dead and need a motherboard replacement... but the hilarious moment was " my phone turned on exactly after 48 hours".... i was too happy and i forgot everything that what happened with me...
then in october 2013 my s2 again suddenly turned off without any reason
everything was black and again exactly after 48 hours it turned on...
now today my phone is again turned off... and i hope it will again turn on after 48 hours...
can anyone of you plz tell me what type of fault is it????
why this **** is happening with my phone???
plz help me because i think one day my phone will turn off and will never turn on again or it will keep turning off on daily basis
show in service centre
Are u using stock rom? How did that happen in the first place? Maybe some screws need tightening or something.
Gangster89 that's pretty strange.
Did you ever let the phone fall hard on the ground and are the battery contacts still good? What ROM and kernel do you have installed.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
not at all... my phone never fall never contacted with water... first i was on biftor rom v10 but after 1st time issue i changed the rom to stock jelly bean but now my phone is again turned off... it has been 6 days passed and my phone is not turning on except going into download mode only when it is connected to pc usb
thanks for your replies and sorry for my poor english
about 2 months ago i put my phone on charging and i was out for some personel work... after 5 to 6 hours i came back and removed my phone from charging and i logged into facebook app, after 5 to 10 minutes my phone turned off and then it continues till yet
now whenever i connect it to the charger or pc usb i get an empty grey battery icon with 3 seconds intervals... i have tried a fully charged battery of another s2 of my friend but still failed to boot up... my own battery works fine on my friend's s2 that means its not the battery fault
9329638 32
Is the battery the original one that came with the phone?
Do you checked the voltage of the battery?
I recommend you to try with another battery when the phone will die again and see if it can start wiht another battery!
Good luck!
yes bro the battery is original... and i have tried another battery but the results are still same... phone doesn't boot up, its not about battery because my battery works fine in my friend's s2
now here is another thing... when i connected phone to pc in download mode, odin showed up this dialogue box... can any one of you plz translate this?? will be very thankful

Galaxy S3 dead

Hello friends,
Sorry for making a new thread but i am little bit desperate.
I have a problem with my galaxy s3.Last night i left it with 5% battery and in the morning when i wake up the phone was shuted down,nothing special i just thought that the baterry was discharced.I puted the phone to charge and i tried to start it after an hour and the phone was still dead.I left the phone two more hours and the symthoms were the same.
When i say dead i mean that it does nothing,no light...nothing at all.
I have to mention that i tried to start the phone with another baterry and it was still dead.
I tried also to start it in boot mode by pressing power button ,volum up and home button in the same time and the phone was still dead.
What can i do in this case?..
My main problem is that i can recover my phone number that was saved in the phone.I have to tell you that i had my gmail configured on the phone,google play configured but i didn t syncronized the contacts and i am curios if the syncronizatios it is made automaticly ?
What options do I have to recover my data?
Thank you

1.Take out the battery and check that the gold contacts are O.K. then try and boot.
2. Leave the battery charging overnight so it charges fully and try to boot.
3. See if your PC recognizes the phone when you plug it in via USB.
OK try this:
1- take out the battery ( make sure that it still have some juice in it )
2- Keep holding the 3 button combo for download mode ( Volume down + Home + power buttons )
3- insert the battery while holding the 3 button combo.
If this doesn't work then u might have some hardware failure , not sure though.
Good luck > this happened to me before when I was flashing a ROM while the phone was charging but apparently it wasn't and the battery died before It was done flashing.
Same thing happened to my dad's s2 he left it charging overnight and it was dead by morning.

Try keeping it connected for awhile... Like maybe 20-30mins and see if anything happens.
Its charging up to 3 hours... Nothing...

Hmmm, well I guess you may need to revert back to stock :c Doesn't seem to be any more option. Sorry
Just in case. Try pressing power + volumeup until it vibrate, 10-20 sec...
It not do nothing.... the problem i think its the battery is not charged and phone not charge it. So, any things i can do need battery...
Anyway thanks guys, i can do 2 things: or give it to assistance or buy a new phone
Ok guys, i found the problem: hold down the power+ vol buttons should fix the problem , but i have battery at 0%. The only thing that i non unterstand is that when a phone have 0% battery for real it have 5% that is saved for emergency and fox not damage battery. Why it not turn on?
Ok, i tried to disassembly, but i think i break something... i will buy a new phone... but i am really bad... Guys anyway i will develop for this device....
One thing i unterstand: NOT BUY SONY SMARTPHONE
Solved!!! Removed battery and reinsterted now its charging!
