So I have been trying to fix my SGP5 USA and it has gotten to the point where it would act like it's charging, the battery would come up on the screen, then it would restart and go back and would start the process again. I did some stuff in Odin and now it doesn't do the battery loop, it now just stays on the Samsung screen or it has the loading screen before it goes to the battery screen. Any way that it can be fixed? Thanks in advance!

My S3 is unrooted and today for some reason, turned itself of then wouldn't reboot passed the boot screen.
It's not stuck on the "Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9300" welcome screen.
So far I've tried:-
Disconnecting the battery several times, even leaving it for 10mins before reconnecting.
Reset (holding Volume Up+Home+Power). It just reboots and gets stuck at the same point. Occasionally not even getting as far as the Samsung screen, it will stay on the battery charging logo/screen but the charging circle image doesn't spin.
Any ideas what, if anything I can do?

Have you gotten your S3 to work yet? My S3 did excactly the same.. I woke up and saw that it was showing the boot screen. I thought "That was weired" and didn't touch it for like ten minutes. I went back and saw that it still hadn't got passed the boot screen and then tried to reboot it. Then I once again was stuck at the boot screen and tried to reboot it again, remove the battery, plug it in to the charger and enter the recovery mode (without any success).
Have anyone else experienced the same problem? What did you do to make it boot properly?
Same problem...I can't get into recovery mode either =/
I had a similar issue. But never got stuck in boot screen. Phone was not switching on and connecting charger showed grey battery icon, not the green charging icon. Had to take it to service center. As long as it is unrooted and in warranty you are safe. They told me they replaced the charger pin on phone. But really not sure.
So i've had this problem with my i9300T SIII for a while now what happens is ill get to about 1 or 2% battery basically right when the phone is about to die. The screen will flicker not on/off but the level of brightness in horizontal lines, and either eventually lock up or turn off. If i even attempt to reboot the phone after this has occurred 90% of the time i end up with a boot loop.
I would then have to hold the power button until the phone turns off but even after i charge it after this point a lot of the time it seems this has corrupted part of the memory on my phone where the only way i can successfully boot again is by factory resetting. This has started to become quite frustrating :\ i am now having to force myself to charge my phone before trying to turn it on again lol
So my main question is would this be hardware related? I am running Cyanogenmod 10.1 Nightlies.
If this is hardware related would i be able to send it into Samsung and get it fixed?
If its not hardware then what can i do about this?
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.

Hello!
So today my phone had 4% left on battery, I switched it on to show my friend a photo and suddenly the screen turned into so many different colors and just stuck there. I took the battery out and turned it back on, tried to turn it on with no results at all, not even the looping samsung galaxy SIII screen! I thought it was the battery so I put it on charge, but nothing shows; no red LED nor battery screen. I took my battery out for 10 minutes, turned it back in and tried to charge it again, also nothing. I used a different charger, also nothing!
My phone is rooted with the newest CM 11, Kitkat.
Anyone has an clue what just happened? What was that colorful screen?
I would really appreciate some help, thanks!

We have 2 things here:
1. The phone turns on but no screen.
2. The phone don't turn on.
If it is No.1 then you can boot into download mode and flash stock it is hard but possible. Try holding power+home+volume down for 5-8 seconds and then press the volume up key(try volume down to not sure about this one)and then connect the phone to your PC and see if odin recognize and then flash stock and if you are lucky it will get fixed. I got such a problem with my friend's phone and fixed it this way. If it turns on and stock didn't help and if it won't turn on the only way I recommend is to give your phone to a Samsung service center.

Guess I'm sending it to repair, the method didn't work, Odin didn't recognize it
Thanks anyway!
I have s2 i9100 (international) working on dorimanX kernel and 4.4 AOSP NeatRom
yesterday i was using my device normaly, and it rebooted suddenly and stuck at samsung logo. i removed the battery and try to turn it on again many times but no change. i try to access recovery mode but i couldnt. I remove the battery and try again but now the screen is totally black. I removed the battery for a long time. and try to turn it on later but nothing the screen is still black and there is no sound or light at all. I noticed after pressing the power button the mobile is hot like it's working
Charge the phone for a bit.
If you can boot into Download mode, there's still a chance to save your phone.
there was no possibility since the screen was black
the motherboard was down. and i replace it with a new one. it's a bad thing that i lost my data :/
Yeah.....that's a classic symptom of a fried motherboard......no life on the screen and the device heating up when on charge......the chances of recovering data in cases like this are pretty much non existent.......
