Make sure your battery didn't died out. Put the charger in and wait a couple of minutes. What rom did you flash?

Hi guys, I originally had my S2 on MIUI, I tried flashing it to the original stock rom but it got stuck in a boot loop
I used Odin Master Clear, pressed start on it, it did nothing and when my phone turned off it wouldn't turn on again
I can't get into download mode or anything, what should I do?
The screen stays black

You mean THIS master clear?
It's for Captivate...
Use Odin 1.8.x

galaxy s3 cannot turn on!!!!

Hello guys.
Unfortunately my galaxy s3 cannot turn on. My phone started to freeze all the time and I got a message when i turned on that i have to wipe data because my cell phone can become unstable. Below the message it was a key which said "I am feeling lucky" :/ I tried to boot to recovery with the standard way of Home + volume + power and Android logo came on the screen like the way when I updated the firmware. When it stuck after 10 mins I turned it off and now the only thing I can see is a white screen with grey lines. nothing more nothing less.
I cannot do anything via toolkit because it cannot find the mobile...
Please help!!!!!!

Wow "i am feelin lucky" hackers are getting a sense of humor...
U shouldve understood immediatly it was a virus...if it cant find something its probably cause the virus flashed stuff on your phone. Try searching the internet for this sort of phone infection youre likely to find the "fix" immediatly..

i tried to flash a pit file last night and i got a message 're-partition failed'. anyone has a clue what to do next?
Guessing you need to replace the motherboard...

if the last firmware which was installed was the stock firmware and unrooted (i have reset the counter on the download rom) it can be replaced over the warranty?

[Q] S duos bricked Bcuz of Swapper 2

I NEED HELP!! S duos got bricked BCUZ of uninstalling Swapper2!
ANYONE HAVE TRIED?? OR HAS THE SAME PROBLEM!???
I NEED HELP PLS!!!
POST YOUR ANSWERS!!! PLS HELP ME SOLVE!! :crying:
i really need help pls post ur solution! S DUOS GOT BRICKED!!!
Are you able to go into recovery.?
If your phone isn't switching on and u desperately wanna get it back on.. Then go to recovery, do wipe data /factory reset... Don't do anything else.... Just restart and see if it works...
If it doesn't download the stock rom for your phone.. Download Odin... Go into download mode by taking of the Bantry reinserting it and pressing vol down+home+power buttons simultaneously... And then install drivers for your phone on my and connect it to comp and flash it... You'll get many guides for Odin flashing method...
If you are rooted and have a custom rom already installed then after wiping data.. Install the rom again which you had installed before or any other rom... And you'll have your phone working....

I was too lazy to watch the entire video, just skipped through it, but I didn't see you trying the button combo to get to Download Mode? It's Vol Down + Home + Power then Volume Up after the warning screen. There's no way it boots to the splash screen but can't get to Download Mode.
This should have everything you need to know to get going again: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2644462
If you're still having issues, would probably make sense to hang out in the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506692
But I'm quite certain just restoring your device with the official firmware via Odin in Download Mode will get you running.

That's crazy odd. I've worked on at least a 100 different kinds of Samsung's and have never seen that. Long story short : No Download Mode = needing a JTAG service unless there is a USB jig specifically for your device, which might or might not work to force it into Download Mode.

This looks like a working JTAG service to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=czIYeIyo8IU
But other than that, looks like you have a new little paperweight.
