I was running my phone perfectly fine, and when I turned off the phone to replace the battery, it won't turn back on at all. The Samsung logo just loops repeatedly, and I can't get into Recovery mode at all. I can get into download mode, (sort of), by the conventional means, but when I press volume up to confirm download mode, I can't do so. The phone hangs for a second, and then restarts its self. Is this SDS? How do I get it fixed? I am in the USA, and I have a SGS III i9300. My phone information is below in my signature.

If it is sds, you wun be able to turn it on at all. Best if you can just send it to the service center for them to have a look.
Kernel problem maybe? Try a different one.
OK, it appears that I can get it into download mode if I run it off of USB power, and pull the battery as soon as I'm able to get into download mode. It will run in download mode if I keep the battery out, but as soon as I put a battery in with it plugged into a USB, it resets the phone. I was able to flash XXUGMK6_BTU onto the phone, but upon resetting the phone with the battery in it, it will not start. This is with both ZeroLemon batteries, and the stock Samsung battery.
Is there a way to fix this?

That's what I was afraid of. I called Samsung, and they said that I would have to send it to the UK in order to get it fixed. I would rather not have to send it halfway around the world for repairs if I don't have to.

I don't think it's that. Otherwise, how would it work running off of USB power? If the power button was stuck, I don't think it would run at all.
Sounds like a motherboard issue, double check that the battery connector pins are undamaged, but otherwise you need a new motherboard.

before you open the phone, try with another battery
When the SDS happens the phone is able to get into the download mode, but doesn't flash by Odin, if yours cannot get into the Download Mode, try a JIG USB

Well, $hit. That's what I was afraid of. It costs just as much to buy a new MB as it does to buy a new phone from what I've been able to find. It also costs almost as much to mail it off to UK as it does to buy a replacement SGS3. ($20 difference). Is there a cheap source for a new MB for the phone?
I can only boot into download mode if I pull the battery after I get into download mode, and run off of USB power. If I leave the battery in, I can't do anything in download mode, (such as confirm it), and it restarts in 5 seconds. Also, if I have the phone plugged in, and insert the battery, even the charge indicator bootloops.

No, the i9300 isn't a USA model and was never sold there, Samsung USA won't be able to do anything, probably won't even have any parts for it.
OH MY ****ING GOD! I FIXED IT! I used a combination between a new USB cable and a Samsung Emergency Recovery. IT WORKS!! God damn, I'm so happy I could cry! IT WORKS! **** YES!!! It doesn't seem to be able to take a custom ROM though. How can I get back to OmniROM?

Think I bricked my phone somehow. To the story, I had phone in download mode to flash the leodroid rom which didn't flash at all, as I waited for 10mins to see if it would flash, but to no avail. Anyway, after that I disconnected the phone from pc, removed the battery, inserted the battery again then BOOM! Nothing, no download mode, no recovery, no boot screen, just a blank screen, a brick.
Dunno, if anyone else has had this problem, but if you managed to somehow get yours working again please tell me! And if you can't, guess I'll have to send it back. Anyone know how to deal with online shops, when returning phones?

have you tried using one of these 'usb jigs'?

it should force your phone into download mode
i think you can either purchase them from a member of this site, forgotten his name :\, or there are plenty of options on ebay

Leodroid, I am guessing this is not a SGS2 rom ?
Well hopefully a JIG works, I have ordered one from ebay earlier this week, hope it comes soon. And yeh the 3 button combos doesn't work. Although I thought the jig won't work if you're unable to power on your phone. Guess I'll give it a go regardless. It wouldn't hurt to try.

it is, although its under investigation right now.
i had this issue but i was able to go back using 3 button procedure.
i would suggest you take battery out and pop it in and immediately hold the 3 buttons and don't let go until you see something on the screen.
Also, i made my usb jig the other day .. it literally took 10 minutes cutting thru the usb. Just go to any electronics shop and get 300K ohms transistor. put the usb you made in your phone and connect the transistor with your hand on the correct pins .. no need to even solder anything .. just make them touch for few seconds.
My brother held the phone and i held the transistor ... poped the battery in and i was at download mode.
best of luck.
Hi,
I have exactly the same problem here with my phone, a brand new Samsung Galaxy S II.
After trying to flash a new firmware I rebooted my phone into "Downloading mode" and starting (i think) a veery earli version of Odin3 software. But when I didnt know what to do I just shut down my phone and closed the applikation.
And then: Totally stone dead, as a brick. I have ordered a USB-thing from ebay, but I'm pretty sure it aint going to work. No response on either powerbuttons, combos or anything else. Just a black screen. Is the only solution to send it in to Samsung service center or is it any else more possibilty? (Excuse me for bad grammar.)

Why would he need to do that? He can't even see the Download mode screen. How is anyone at Samsung Service center going to see a counter that won't even come on.
Samsung Service Center is going to just jtag flash it, then send it back. Which also wipes the counter, and even if there is a hidden counter, it's erases that as well.
Anyways, I don't think the USB Jig would work. USB Jig will only work if the bootloader is still intact. The USB JIG uses a 300k or 301k resistor, not transistor.
The reason the thread is closed is because it was based off someone else's work, and not giving any credit.
Anyway to fix my brick? I used Odin to restore my phone back to stock, and then used kies to update it back to the latest (none rooted) build, after said it was done and needs to restart but my phone was black screen and now wont turn on. No matter how long it charge/hold down any combination of buttons / anything it does no turn on not even light up black its like if it is completely dead, can anyone tell me how this could have happened everything updated fine.
I don't know how it could have happened, we take your word for it. I know you said you tried different button combinations, but have you tried to get into download mode? If that doesn't work, try using a jig to induce the phone into download mode. If that doesn't work, you can probably have it jtagged. Or buy a nexus s )

Yes I can't get no response not even download mode, ok how do I jig and jtag? any guid so n how to do it, i'll try anything before having to run to tMobile and saying an update broke it lol
It sounds like you destroyed the bootloader. I was in the same situation when I flashed the GB bootloader by checking the reboot checkbox. To get back, I removed the battery, hold vol up + vol down + power, launched odin, plug usb, and slide the battery in.

Hi
My power-button is broken.
Do you know any way to tun the phone on without it?
Any "trick" and special-combination to press?
Thanks a Lot
Francesco
A jig should get you into download mode (assuming there's nothing else stopping the phone from booting) which should enable you to flash stock firmware & get the phone back to a somewhat 'original' state. From there you can send it in for warranty service (assuming the busted home button is a hardware issue) & hope you get said service (definitely possible, but never a given).

My phone is in "original state".
The button doesn't work 'cause I broke it!
I know I can get it back to the warranty service, but I would like to turn it on without doing it
OK. So I take it you've never flashed a non-stock rom or kernel & that your flash counter isn't 1 or more ? Ahhh. You broke the button. Well I guess you're going to have to send it into Samsung & take pot luck as to whether they fix it under warranty. Or pay to have it repaired.
There's no way you're going to be able to easily switch that phone on with out your power button working. You're asking the impossible. You might be able to repair it yourself given screens can be replaced & other repairs can be carried out by users.
Do a Google search & see if there's a tutorial on how to replace the power button & what parts you might need.

It's stuffed. Get it fixed under warranty. I'm not sure what the situation was when the button broke, but I hope that it is still solid in 1 piece so that it gets fixed under warranty. If it looks smashed, then they probably won't fix it under warranty.

Did you lose the actual button? If you have it it should still fit in the grooves on the back housing.
For now like I said earlier, download Odin and flash a modem and your phone will boot. Takes 30 seconds.

Ok. I thought you said you lost the button. Good that you haven't.
15 day wait is a long time wait. You have a few options here:
1) in the meantime make your own jig. There are instructions for it all over the internet.
2) most phone repair shops have them so maybe pop past and ask them to do it for you.
3) There is a thread in the general.section where fellow members will allow you to use their jig. There are plenty of users in most countries. Check it out.

I would also suggest buying one off eBay. Costs about $2 delivered.

Data on your sd card like pics, music etc on the memory card remain if you factory reset or flash a new firmware. Only your apps and settings get wiped.
Or you could flash a no-wipe rom like the current ics lpq. That way everything stays as is.

Glad you got it sorted. For future reference, internal memory is split. Approximately:
1gb system
2gb apps
11.5 gb other stuff like pics, media etc.
Factory resetting will wipe the system and apps. The other stuff remain on the card unless you format it from settings or recovery.

Hi,
I think I may have bricked my phone somehow.
I have an international Samsung galaxy S3 I9300.
I'm using SiyahKernel S3 v1.7rc1 for dual-boot.
ParanoidAndroid 2.51 as primary ROM and Stock Samsung JB as secondary.
I have used the battery mod that comes with the kernel to speed up charging.
Here's what happened:
I have been using this setup for quite some time without any problems, but I have noticed lately that the phone have been rebooting automatically a few times. I didn't think too much about it. Annoying, but didn't happen often. Yesterday I put my phone on charging before I went to bed, and the phone was on. When I woke up the phone had turned off (alarm didn't go off either, so I missed work..) and the green charging notification light was stuck on permanently. I couldn't turn on the phone, it didn't react at all. I took out the battery to reset it, put it back in and tried again. The charging light was gone, but still couldn't turn it on. No sign of life.
I tried my battery in a friends phone and it worked fine. Also tried his battery in my phone, but no change. So seems the battery is not the problem. I have tried to keep the battery out for some time, holding buttons to drain all power, but no change.
It doesn't respond to any cable being plugged in either (USB or charging), so can't flash anything.
I'm lost here really. The phone doesn't respond to anything any more so I have no idea what to do to fix it. And I'm guessing if I send it back for repair they're not going to accept it as it's not stock. Would really appreciate any help.
Hi,
Are you able to put your phone in download mode at least? It happened with my old Galaxy S and the only thing worked was download mode.
If download mode is possible, try to flash a new rom via odin and than install siyah kernel to remove the 2nd rom partition.
Good luck.
Cheers

Send it to a Samsung Service center.
Overdriving the battery charging circuit comes with a cost. That is it and now your phone is FUBAR.
Have you tried shouting at it loudly and calling it a few names? You're out of luck, it seems (needs returning to Samsung) but at least it'll make you feel better!

If they can't boot the phone, they'll simply replace the defective board, restore your original IMEI, wipe your phone and send it back to you.
At least that is what has happened to other users whose phones had the same fault as yours, and for the same reasons.
I guess your phone is still under warranty, isn`t it? If so, just get it repaired under warranty and let this be a lesson that nothing comes free, including fast-charging the battery.

Just a note to OP: you cant Jtag it yourself, you have a to find a Service center in your area that does Jtag repairs.
