Hi guys !
So, the problem began with the power key. Stop working and sometimes the turn off or reboot menu appeared randomly.
When I take off the battery and put on again, the phone turns on by itself. It's like a "keep phone alive" thing.
I tried to flash a rom, but there was an error because the phone turns off and on by itself.
Now theres this error message, “Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. blabla”.
Looks easy to fix, but the thing is that the phone reboots by itself. I cant flash or use Kies cause it only takes a few seconds to reboot again.
Thank you, hope anyone can help me with this.

Without fixing the power button, I can't think of any good solutions.

I was able to fix it.
If theres anyone with the same problem, I just took the battery off and waited like 5 minutes (also pressed the batery terminals).
After that, put the batery (now the phone won't turn on by itself), enter download mode and flash the stock firmware.
Thanks anyway

I'm trying to load the Unofficial 2.2 ROM onto my phone and I'm using the Odin method. I got into Download mode, got the pit and the ROM and put it all in place, the process starts but it just keeps getting stuck at "Do not turn off the Target." Now if I restart it, it won't even go into my phone.
Any suggestions why it keeps stopping at that point?

My advice is to repost this question in the Q and A section and then edit your OP, to indicate you've done as much... Add a link in THIS OP to your Q and A thread. You should get some help after that i'm sure.
does you phone just sit at a black screen? mine did the same thing black screen to where i doesnt look like its on but if you turn the lights off in the room your in you will see the screen is actually lit! no idea on how to fix this myself... on mine if you press and hold the vol up, vol down, and power buttons for a while, (until your fingers hurt) you will eventually see a black screen with red writing with some stuff i was unable to understand! but thats all i could get out of the phone... called t-mobile and they sent a replacement... but i would like to know what i did wrong because i will be flashing froyo alot and i dont want to run into this problem again... btw can get odin to recognize the phone at all!
If your phone is not Hardkey locked.
1) Remove battery from phone and put it back in again
2) Plug your USB into your computer (and make sure it is not in your phone yet)
3) Push and hold down your two volume keys (DO NOT HOLD DOWN THE POWER BUTTON)
4) Plug in the USB cable into your phone
This takes me into Download every time. I did what you did. I had problem with Odin my phone and it just got stuck. I unplugged the phone and rebooted it. Or I should say I tried. It was dead to the world. Black screen. Power button did not start etc. Ran into a note from Kazer and he suggested the above procedure and it worked every time for me. Holding down the power button did not work for me.
Try it out and let me know if it worked.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I have a YP-G70 US version, was running CWM with SlimKat 4.4.2 and everything was going great. I went to power it on today and it seemed like it wouldn't respond to anything. I can get it into "download" mode, and Odin sees it. I've installed the kernel (both DD_01142012.tar and YP-G70-Kernel-r14.tar) about a dozen times and it always succeeds and reboots, then sits at the Samsung loading screen. Holding the power button for 8-10 seconds powers the unit off.
I can't get into recovery mode at all, just download mode. Another thing to note, when I plug it into usb power, it turns on to show the battery, as soon as the battery appears the bottom three buttons light up and it reboots. The power button will work to turn the device off, but not on. For instance, if I'm in download mode, or the battery screen is appearing, holding the power button will turn it off.
Any ideas what's going on or what I can try?
Thanks!
I've made a little progress. If I let the device charge until it's full, then the power button will boot once into recovery. Now when I try to install the rom I get the following error;
E:Error in /sdcard/Slim-venturi-4.4.2.build.2.5.RC1-unofficial-20140129-1514.zip
(Status 0)
Installation Aborted.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Ok, sorry this is so crazy. After formatting the /system it looks like the rom finally installed without errors.
I still have the strange battery reboot issue when it's powered off and plugged in. If anyone knows how to fix that I'd love to know how.
Thanks!

Did you flash a ROM after wiping the system? That's why it's bootlooping.
I finally got slimkat back on it, but it won't startup, it just shows the slimkat logo and sits there forever.
The battery issue still exists. I have another YP-G70 and I've done all the same installations on it and it's working great. I'm not sure why this one is so wonky.
Thanks again for the assistance.
I flashed the rom again and now it booted into slimkat. The battery still seems to not know what's going on. I know in one of the original boot roms I saw something about erasing the battery stats. Would that help get the battery reading working again? or anything I can do inside Slimkat to fix that?
Thanks!
The bootloop while the device is off and charging is a known problem.
Thanks for the response. I left the device off and eventually it charged and many of the issues while running went away, however the battery bootloop is still happening. Good to know it's a known issue.
My device is getting restart automatically and it gets restarting in boot screen only
The samsumg logo comes up then suddenly it goes in restarting mode
And if i press the power button the phone gets start.
& meanwhile i have changes 2-3 roms but the same problem is occuring again and again.
Can anyone help me out to get rid of this problem?

Once same thing happened with me, it was issue of power botton i replaced power botton and then everything is fine. I think you should get your phone checked
Thanks , Problem solved , it was the power button
Hey all
Bought this phone because it seemed great on paper.
Sadly I had very huge trouble getting twrp and root on it.
Tried the one post on xdevelpoers and got my phone finally bricked.
It starts up and resets all the time. It doesnt get past the "orange state, your device has been unlocked, please wait 5 seconds for boot"
It just crashes after 3 seconds and restarts all the time. Im unable to get into recovery or fastboot or anything.
This ****ing **** is driving me crazy. Ive never seen so many false information on the internet.
I had many phones bricked but still easy fixed. This is completly new for me and never happened before.

Thanks for your reply
If I try power button + volume up: Phone vibrates. Stays black for 3 seconds. Then (I think) it resets, vibrates again and simply tries to boot the phone.
After that the phone just resets after 3-5 seconds forever.
Before the bricking, this usualy lead me directly to a screen where I could choose recovery or fastbood mode.
Power button + volume down doesnt do anything I believe (neither did it before)
Alright I got something else now.
Read about some unbricking ways.
One suggested launching SP flash tool, clicking on auto format and starting it. Then plugging the phone in.
I did that. It said formatting success after like 3 seconds.
Now my phone doesnt boot at all. Its just black. Nothing happens when I power on. No vibration.
LED still shows when I try to charge. PC also now says unknown usb device or something detected.
Is it all over now lol?

I don't think so but a lot of devices In situations like this require either a unlocked bootloader and USB debugging. I will try to see if I can help you. I know if your frustrated. And this is not really my area but I try to help as many as possible

To be able to fully help you right, I would have to know your devices name or build number( example sm-a510f) and just possibly if you are able to access anything

How did you solve it, I have the same problem
Today I tried to turn on my tab but it was without battery. So I let the battery charge but I immediately realized that once the battery logo appeared, it would restart every 2 or 3 seconds without the possibility to charge the Tab.
Then I tried to access the recovery but although it allowed me to access it, but It restart again and again. And now that I try to access the download mode, pressing volume down+power up+home but after i press volume up to continue on the blue screen immediately restarts again.
I leave two videos of what happens to me, I hope someone can help me.
Thank you
Info:
Tab S3 SM-T820 Only WIFI

Did you try accessing it by the recovery as in restart to bootloader. I don't know much, but there is a lot less writing if you do it that way. Oh well good luck!
Hello there. I'm having the exact same problem! Were you able to find a solution?
