Hello members of XDA Developers!
Okay so I`ve had my Galaxy Ace for less than a year.
Now I have a problem. The power button one day suddenly stopped working. I don`t know if it`s caused by costom rom which I installed some months ago. I haven`t dropped my phone or anything, but maybe some water got in there.
Now as the phone is turned off, I can`t turn it on. When I connect it to a charger it shows the charging screen.
What should I do. Is it possible to fix? Or is it at lest possible to turn the phone on using computer? I`m planning to give it to service centre so they can (I don`t know if actually can) fix it.
Help?

HI First time here for me.
I was surfing the net on my t989 and the screen went black. I try to restart but the phone vibrates for one second and nothing happens. I took out the battery and SIM card and put back the battery, push ON button, phone vibrates but do not start. I try to charge but it vibrates every 5 seconds, but it doesn't start. The phone is new - one month - just install 9-10 aplications. Please help. Thanks
Same thing happened to my SGS..power IC was damaged in mine.

Have you underclocked/undervolted it at any stage? If so, try using ODIN to restore to stock, if you can even get into Download Mode. If not, send it into a Samsung Service Center.
Yes it sounds like it is not charging and the battery is flat! With the phone OFF you should briefly see a picture of the battery when you plug the phone into the charger.
Try putting in a fully charged battery from an another S2.
Can you get to Download mode (Powered off, press Vol up+Home+Power at the same time) or Recovery mode (Powered off, press Vol up+Home+Power)? If not, then you're in really bad waters...
Hi,
Thank you for your answer. I did't do anything to this phone since I bought it. Just 9 apps dowloaded. Worked fine and yesterday it got dead. I just do light web surf and some emails. Do you have any idea, please? I hate to have to returned since I'm in Canada and I couldn't even register this phone with samsund.com sice it is allowed only US addresses.

If you can't even get into Download Mode, as detailed above, really you're out of options for the most part. Looks like returning it is your only option.

Luckily for you, as you haven't messed with it, you still have warranty.

Hi guys,
My Galaxy S2 will not respond, will not power on at all.
I put it on AC charger before I went to bed (like I been doing for a year) and in the morning I was not able to power the beast on.
The phone is rooted, it's on 2.3.4 stock, 8 moths ago I flashed an insecure kernel so I can use BLN, I had the yellow triangle for about 3 weeks and then it suddenly disappeared. Since then I been using the phone with no problem, I haven't made any other software "adjustments".
I tried another charger, I tried other battery, I tried Download mode, Recovery mode, computer USB, nothing works...
What could have happen? I haven't installed any apps lately either.
I forgot, once every like 4 weeks the phone randomly shuts off and will start vibrating, and it's unresponsive until I remove the battery and power it back on.
THANKS

So I had a bug in my phone? How? I never had ICS ROM.
If I buy a screen broken SGS2 and take the motherboard from it will work? I mean it's compatible with camera , mic, sensors , etc?
Today pressed the home button to turn screen of as per usual, and went to turn it back on to get into phone, and nothing happened...
ive tried taking the battery out, plugging into power, booting into recovery.
nothing...
it does have custom rom installed (omega 33.2)
help would be grand right about now :/
cheers,
Are you sure it didn't run out of battery ?

As you have no warranty its worth trying a USB recovery jig .

cheers guys, took it into vodafone yesterday and their sending it off to samsung, sounds like the ultimate sudden death issue, but cracked the screen a few weeks prior so hopefulyl samsumg dont try pin it on user error, see what happens i guess

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
Hi guys I would have (not me directly but a friend) a problem that has been literally driving me crazy for 3 days.
A friend gave me the indicated tablet asking me to do a miracle but basically I'm not God. The tablet in question is literally dead. Installed all the drivers, I started RKtool and it is not recognized, even the pc does not give the slightest signal of recognition of a connected device. It doesn't go into download mode, it doesn't go into recovery, it doesn't turn on. I left him in charge all night and nothing at all, shows no signs of life. The red LED while it is charging is there, pressing the reset button vibrates timidly once and then stops ... dead! Anyone have any idea what could have happened? Could anyone help me short-circuit it? I need to know which pins are right. Thanks
