HELP Phone froze now it wont boot up - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a stock iOcean x7 elite which is a good Chinese phone, its amazing besides this issue that has rendered it useless. I was rebooting my phone and then it started getting stuck on the boot sequence, I didn't think anything about it so I took the battery out a few times. It did the same thing and then it just wouldn't turn on at all. Black screen and everything.
When I plug it into the charger the light doesn't come on. When I plug it into the computer, I can hear it sync up and then unsyncs. Nothing shows up in the My Computer screen.
Is there anything I can do, or is it toast?
Thanks

by the time i had left after a good chat, i checked the phone back at work at it was turned off, i plugged in the charger, the little notification came on and i left it to charge, an hour later after a meeting i turned on the phone, it booted into windows and then after loading sense it crashed and restarted then got stuck on the splash screen
numerous battery pulls and the same issues, gets into windows doesnt load sense, freezes and blank screen, when i battery pull and turn on 90% stuck on the splash screen
installed a rom from the memory card (stock) worked for 10 minutes same issue

Check the three little 'fingers' connecting to the battery.

Had similar issue with my phone, random reboots after phone was working for a bit, stuck on bootscreen without displaying radio, partitions etc.
Called HTC, was a hardware issue obviously, the sent me a new replacement phon (warranty).
if you have HSPL
1. Task 29
2. when stuck in blank screen - pull battery out
3. bootloader
4. connect back to pc via usb
5. flash any stock ROM (not the latest 3.14 as it will change your HSPL)

Big uh-oh...

I have a problem with my x10i.
I was trying to use the flash tool for 2.1 from binary's thread but I failed and it was still 1.6. It got to the point where it said [finish] and then error message in the cmd. After that I tried using SEUS to update it again, the 2.1 update was available so I tried installing it.
Here is the current situation.
After installing 2.1 from SEUS, I followed the instruction to turn the phone off/take out the usb. After turning it back on, it's been half a hour and I'm still stuck at the blank screen before the SE logo shows up. I tried taking out the battery to boot into Flash Mode but that didn't work either. I was wondering if it was because the battery is near empty, but that's not the case since I was using the wallcharger for another hour on it earlier whlie it's in the blank screen state.
Can anyone point me in a direction for fixing it?
Forgot to mention, holding the power button doesn't turn it off either. I would have to remove the battery to turn it off.
Try a re-flash... use the repair function on PC Suite
the usb cable isnt turning on the phone by connecting to it while its off. i can't boot in flash mode either .
had somewhat a prob yesterday like it, my phone did turn on again. i got an other pc installed companion suite there and repaired the firmware(said it was up to date) and then after the boot i'am @ 2.1
was the other pc a 32bit? because the first time i tried using seus was on a 32bit then i bought 64 bit computer.
I'll try running it on a 32bit computer today.
Okay, so I borrowed a PC and installed PC Companion and tried to connect the phone to the computer. However the computer didn't recognize my phone at all. Perhaps this is a problem with window 7?
I also noticed that when i take the battery out and put the usb in then the battery back in, the green LED light stays on. It stays on until the phone trys to boot itself on then the LED turns off but the screen turns on. Only thing is that the screen is still blank and never went to any of the logo screens. And while the USB is plugged in, I can't turn it on by holding power. However if the usb is not plugged in, and I take the battery out and put it back in, I can hold power and it'll blink really fast for the green LED and then the phone viberates for a quick second (like it usually does when you turn your x10 on) and then blank screen and nothing else. The reason i can tell it's on w/ a blank screen and not a screen issue is because I put the phone under the table (very little light) and I can see the screen dimly lit by the back light. These are the only 2 indication I have that the hardware is working.
My biggest guess right now is that the firmware was F'D during the flash or the loader is now a goner since I can't boot into safemode or flashmode. My other conclusion so far is that while the phone is on (confirming it being on via the backlit blank screen) the usb connection goes off. Perhaps its stuck in a loop? Can anyone tell me how I can fix this?
I did searches as well.
I came across people who said their phone was stuck so they let it drain out the battery on it's own and it unstucks. Some say they waited 4-5 minutes and it worked.
So far the longest I waited was:
3 Hours(And counting) *usb & battery is plugged in but charging green LED light is not on*
or tried to leave it alone for 8 hours without battery or usb plugged in.
I'm hoping someone has come across the same problem and had a fix or one of the DEVS might've experianced this problem while trying to test their loaders/etc?
Nothing to do with Windows 7, I and others have no issues on Windows 7 x64. Run the attached file and delete anything to do with SE and try reconnecting in flash mode whilst running SEUS. Post a screen shot of the program if you're unsure what to delete.
Okay right now I am on the 2nd computer with the 32bit OS that I tried to connect to earlier. However i was unable to find a DEVID that was registered on Nov 1. which should be the case since I have never connected my phone with this computer ever before.
I was unsuccessful at booting into flash mode as well. I would put the battery in. then hold the back button and plug the usb. However the phone would not auto boot like it does normally when you plug in the usb so I held on till it did because I thought it might be lagging, however it still didnt boot into flash mode.
I have a baddddd feeling now
Did you read my post?
this is the screen shot of the program you told me to run. It was ran on the computer that I borrowed today, it was never connected with my phone before.
Thanks for helping me ^___^

No worries, but you'll have to post a better screenshot than that, can hardly see it.
Sorry about that, this is my first time uploading a image on xda.
I re-uploaded via imageshack

Yeah as you've not connected it before there is nothing there to remove, and seems like you've already tried everything. Not sure what to suggest, are you on a contract with insurance?
Nope, I got my phone in USA before it came out in NA. I had it imported via a dealer.

Samsung Stratosphere won't turn on, stuck in boot loop, please help!

My Samsung Stratosphere turned itself off sometime and now is rebooting to the Samsung logo, and then turning back off, and rebooting (a couple times earlier it booted to the main android menu, but turned back off immediately afterwards) and when I plugged it into the charger it acts like it's charging and then turns off and acts like it's charging and over and over again, even when the battery indicates that it's at more than half full.
Does anyone know what's happening? (no custom ROMs or anything, it's all standard btw). I took the battery out and everything and it still does the same thing when I put it back. I tried to do a factory reset, but the recovery mode screen always jumps away when I try to activate it (I press both Vol+ and Vol-, recovery mode screen comes up but goes instantly, then the phone goes into a boot loop again).
Please help, thank you!
Bump!
Bump please!

Hi, I'd recommend sending the phone into warranty, add the phone isn't rooted, you can't do much.

Had same problem on 3 phones. This is a connection problem within the phone. Disassembly & cleaning contacts often helps for a while, but problem comes back. Bumping the phone on the side or top, often allows it to work properly, for a short while, and so does squeezing it, in certain places. Get a new one, since the problem will re-cur.

[Q] T959 Phone doesn't load

I am pretty sure that someone has posted something similar to my problem, but I can't find anything that gives a straight up answer or seems to kind of deviation of the problem.
So I do have cyanagen mod 10 stable installed on my phone and it has been great... No problems what so ever. I'm not sure if something happened or if it was something that I had changed, but the only thing system wise that I had changed was under the ROM Tool Box, I had edited the screen settings to change the dpi of the screen. However, everything worked fine after it changed and rebooted. In fact, I loved the fact that screen was now "bigger..." Meaning that it made the icons and text smaller.
So, now the problem comes, now the phone doesn't load up. The battery died and I plugged the phone into charge it and it turned on like normal with the little loading image of a circle (like the one you seen when a flash file is loading) and then it blinked and did it again, but then nothing. Normally if you let it sit for a second and press the power button, it would show an image of the battery charging. But it doesn't. If I press and hold the power button, it starts to laod up and says "Samung Vibrant" then goes black, and then repeats Samung Vibrant again and again....
Now I am not a super genius on the android thing, but I have flashed many different ROMs and thought I had bricked my phone many times as well, but always have been able to bring it back to life. I am actually starting to think of my phone as "Frankenstien" since it has died and came back so many times...
Now, I have tried to reboot into recovery mode but doing the volume + and - and power, didn't work.
I have tired to boot into download as well...
The phone can be plugged into the computer and it recognizes it as far as sending out a charge to "charge" the phone, but it does not recognize it in Kies or in Odin. I reinstalled the drivers as well and still not recognized... I know the phone is "old" as far as that goes, but it was working fine and currently unemployed, so every penny counts.
Suggestions?

Possibly bricked phone.. Out of nowhere? Not even flashing

Been running the GPE ROM flawlessly since I flashed on the 12th... Until today. Don't know if this is ROM related but maybe you guys can help.
Out of nowhere, my phone kept shutting off. Couldn't use it for more than a minute after booting before it would turn off completely. Battery was charged so I was kind of like 'wtf'. Then all of a sudden it wouldn't even get to the swirling colors boot screen. It would shut off halfway though the Samsung Custom logo. ****.
Tried plugging it in and pulling the battery multiple times. I can't even boot to recovery! The blue text shows in the upper left but then it will go off again. It's plugged in now but not showing the battery charging screen.
I can only get it to turn on for about a second. Am I ****ed? Is this thing bricked? Super random because I changed NOTHING this morning and it was fine yesterday.

It could be a power button failure, it's actually quite common on the S4.
