Hi everyone !
I need your help : my galaxy S2 (1 year and 4 months of age) is not turning on anymore...
I'm on rooted JellyBam 1.1 and have Siyah Kernel 5.1 w/ CWM Touch as a recovery.
I was noticing some problems since last month but I don't know if it's correlated : my screen would turn on and off randomly during the day without any notification or anything.
Half an hour ago it froze, so I removed the battery and put it back on, I restarted once, and was stuck on rom bootscreen, then I did the same, removed battery+restart and then I was stuck on siyah splashscreen. Finally I did this once more and that time my phone wouldn't start anymore...
I switched batteries, did a soft reset (holding POWER 10 secs with battery off) and a hard reset (holding POWER+HOME 10 secs with battery on), plugged it to a computer via USB but nothing works and I don't see the charging sign anymore !
Do you guys have a solution ? I'm no longer under waranty so I don't know what to do...
Thanks a lot !
PS : how can I retrieve the data from internal memory to back it up in case there are no solutions ?

Hello Everyone,
I have Noir A10 by Qmobile and since morning I am having this problem. I had installed JMP ROM v 8 and it was working super fast for atleast a month or so. When I got up in the morning, I saw the wait logo(that appears when I boot up the phone). I waited for a few minutes but phone was stuck there. I tried to restart but it didnt respond. I took out the battery and turned it back on. It did turn on but display resolution had a problem. I could not see whole the screen. For instance when I browse to Application drawer, I am unable to see some of the Icons. I reset the phone to factory settings and restarted but had the same problem with display. Then I tried to reboot into recovery but it simply resets the phone to factory settings instead.

Vol+ Vol - and power button, release power button after it vibrates but keep holding volume buttons and at last home button your phone will reboot into recovery.... and even if you flash another rom the start up logo ll remain on your phone so if you want to get rid of it you ll have to delete it from temp fold " logo.bin"
First of all i have no knowledge on how to fix my phone or flashing.
My question title are based on what i read from other threads.
My Problem Started when:
Connected Phone to USB to Charge
Removed Phone from USB
Lock Screen wont appear
Decided to Reboot the phone
Now my problem is:
After Rebooting, I got stuck at loading/bootloading screen
Decided to go to Factory menu by holding Vol Down and Power
Chose Reboot Option
After that, the phone rebooted nonstop like 5 times and turned off.
Now my phone won't charge, or power up, or even go to the factory menu
Now trying to find how to fix it for hours now
My phone has an internal battery and memory / non removable - cause all the threads about flashing and videos about flashing i watched was removing batteries (but i have an internal battery )
It is a rebranded china phone called Cherry Mobile Omega Infinity.
According to the SPECS sheet:
Mediatek MT6592 1.7GHz octa-core CPU.
How do i fix this problem?
Can someone or anyone help me in a step by step guide?
Thanks in advance! :good:
Greetings,
My device is probably about three years old, I was totally satisfied until I noticed sudden change in my phone's performance about three months ago, way too laggy even after doing factory resets and etc.. , battery was being sucked faster than it supposed (even with a new battery), heating up whenever it decides to, not being able to handle hardcore-use which it could handle in the past... etc.
So, I took all that as a sign that my phone needs to be replaced. Last night while I was on my pc and the phone was sitting in front of me, I caught the phone restarting by it's own. I noticed this happening frequently over the past few months, and usually nothing wrong happens, although I had to remove the SD card once.
But this time its a whole different issue, the phone was stuck on "Samsung galaxy s III .. blah blah" , pressing the power button wouldn't turn off the phone and it would turn itself on the moment I put back the battery. I surfed the web for info and found topics that called this "stuck power button issue" and they suggested to smack the power button with battery or smack the phone itself (without holding any grudge against the phone ). I did that and it fixed the issue of the phone turning itself on.
At this point I found out the next issue, the OS won't boot & i would still be stuck at "Samsung galaxy s III ..." screen. So I tried to boot into CWM (Power+Home+Vol Up) but it would loop me back to the same screen 'till death >_>
Then I checked if I could enter download mode and it was a success, afterwards I downloaded a stock .md5 for my phone (and specified country), Loaded it to odin and tried to flash using that, and it failed on me ... check the pic below if you wanna see the error massages

FAIL !! I tried it twice, I can't think of what to do anymore ... Being able to access BBM (I got a habit of making notes there) & Contacts (I am not sure if superbackup was being a good boy and made backups everyday) would be nice .. But I don't think it's gonna happen ... All I really care about is being able to recover everything from my Internal storage, I don't care if the phone becomes unusable or whatever.. I just need the internal storage.
+ My phone is rooted, I have some nandroid backups and the Rom I was using was Android Revolution HD
Update 12/10
I messed around with the phone, and found out that I can still get in cwm, but I keep getting stuck with "can't mount cache/recovery/..." "can't open cache/recovery/..."error
Since the phone is three years old the battery could be the culprit. Try with your friends battery to see if the phone is booting properly. Still if your phone stucks in boot loop then repalce your power button.
I faced similar issue. My phone went into bootloop even when in recovery. It would reboot while OS installation is in progress. Weird. Rebooting while in recovery could damage the recovery itself and next time it wont even boot into recovery.

thank god someone replied, I thought nobody would respond so I gave up on xda .. anyways I just updated my post.
I am positive that the issue is not the battery, since it's new and i did try the older one and nothing changed. I still get stuck at the same screen x_X
Hi,
So my S3 stopped working a few weeks ago while I was on holiday. It fell from my hand and turned off on its own. After that I turned it back on and it was working fine for a couple of minutes, then the problem started happening.
Every time I opened an app that used the camera, the phone would reboot. After a couple of reboots, it would get stuck repeating the Samsung logo (haven't been able to boot it since then). When I plug the charger in, it passes the Samsung logo and then stays on the Cyanogen mod logo. I've left it on for hours on the CM logo without any luck. I can't boot into recovery mode because the vol. up button doesn't work, and I can't get adb to find the device on my pc (though it does charge when plugged into the pc).
All I'm wondering is if there's a way I can save my media files from the phone myself, or if I need to take it to a service centre.
Tl;dr - phone loops samsung logo when on battery, gets stuck on cm logo when charging, vol. up broken so can't get into recovery mode, adb won't find the device so no recovery mode like that either, want to save media files.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Hello XDA!
My phone is an Alcatel One Touch pop D5 5038A. I rooted this phone 3 weeks ago and the only thing I did was partition my SD card. No customs roms etc etc. Everything was going well until one time my phone died and I had to charge it. I tried turning it on but it was stuck on bootloop. I entered recovery mode and selected "reboot." That seemed to fix the problem but then after a few days, it happened again and this time I can't enter recovery mode. I kept on holding the power button+volume up button but the Alcatel logo just kept on flashing. What I did instead was reinsert the battery a few times with a few attempts to turn the phone on. This fixed the problem but just yesterday, my phone died by itself again. I've reinserted my battery a lot of times already but it still wouldn't work. I'm new to rooting and I ain't so sure if my phone is bricked. Recovery mode still wouldn't work at all. Thanks!
Ps. No system updates were installed on this device.
