hi guys,
i got an O2 wda exec, running on tomal's rom (works fine ! great rom)
bye the way i've a problem with the phone, when i reboot it i can't start it again.
the battery is not charging when phone is down, can't start it by pressing the power button. When i cold reboot it if i try to load default settings or just exit, phone is going down again.
after waiting a couple of hours, with a lucky time i can start it but only when i'm olding the reset button...
when the phone is up i don't have any problems with.
what do you think about that ? i'm asking if the battery is not dead but my battery works fine, about 3 days with phone and a day using wireless and BT.
thanks for your help.

Welcome to the forum
That is very strange, never heard of it
Have you READ the Wiki? perhaps you can find a solution there
You can try reflashing the ROM...
Good luck,
Have you voted?
Okay, I finally had time to update my A500 to ICS I was at 3.1 and was rooted. I went through several updates to get to ICS. 3.2, 3.2.1, a small patch, then 4.0.3. After the update finished, saying it was successful, my tab will reboot itself no longer than 30 seconds after it gets to the lock screen I don't have time to uninstall any apps that might be interfering with startup, not that i could tell whats doing it, and i don't have time to do the factory reset through the system menus Not sure why but the recovery (power&vol boot) only displays a red triangle over a dead droid so, guess my actual question is, how could i go about correcting this issue? I have ADB if needed, but I don't know were to start. any help would be appreciated. THANKS.
[Edit]
Okay, so I managed to turn off the wifi on my tab and it seems to stop restarting. When I do turn on the wifi, several apps give an error that they have stopped. after the second one pops up the tab then restarts unless the wifi is shut off. Any ideas as to what this may be would be appreciated.
Hi, sorry to say that i have the exact same problem.
Updated today from 3.2 to 4.0.3 and after first boot started the reboot sequence that only stopped after I managed to switch off the wifi...
I investigated a little but it seems this is quite an isolated issue... and all ways are leading to the factory reset...

Hi,
Got that problem too. Did a factory reset and it works fine now.

Here's on direct from Acer Support:
(of course us old dogs already know this trick)
Note: Clean boot will erase all the data/information which is saved on your tablet. Recommend you to back up the data before performing a clean boot. (yeah, like you can get in there to save it
1. Shutdown the power (press the power button for long time to shutdown).
2. Press and hold volume up key (the key next to rotation lock) until you finish step 4.
3. Press power button for 3 seconds until you feel device vibrates then release power button.
4. Once you feel device vibrates, very quick to switch on/off "rotation key" many times (this activity has to be done very fast, otherwise it will not success). To ensure you success, switch on/off rotation key when Acer logo appears on screen.
5. Wait for a while (you will see Erase Userdata and Erase Cache on top-left corner on screen), device will reboot and start from OOBE screen.
Managed to get it to work. Appreciate the help. Runs like a champ now.

Hi guys,
After an Unsuccessful flash from RSD, my cellphone doesn't recognize the battery anymore and I cannot charge the phone to try to reflash the unit again. Is there any chances to fix it? Without using an external battery charger?
Thanks a lot
This has saved quite a lot of defy's, milestone's, and even my own Xperia U http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=892026
tks Lean, I did this procedure and worked as well...
I flash the phone with Retail Rom but always stuck in an infinite loop in Motorola's logo. found a post in xda that asks to format the phone and did work!
Now I rooted and back to tezet's CM10 rom.
Tks for all.:victory::highfive:
same problem here! after a SFB my phone stucks on motologo (it blinks every 30/40 secs.) But now I'm NOT able to go in STOCK Recovery! If I press X + POWER ON, nothing happens.
Any suggestion to come out of this "almost bricked" situation?

Take out the battery, press x, and while pressing, put the battery back on. I remember I had to do that once.
I'm not sure if it was X or both volume keys, or the camera key... I don't remember, it's been more than a year since I lost my milestone.
Good luck.
Hi, everyone! I in need of some dire help right now. My S4 (Jfltemo) running Mahdi Rom 2.7 Won't boot. Now I flashed the phone several times before: Paranoid Android, Cyanognenmod, Android Open Kang Project, and Stock. I tried Mahdi Rom last Night since it was new and since it was stable. I clicked on the Reboot option on the Power menu after flashing it because i was going to go into recovery mode. Now my phone won't even boot fully. It goes to the Samsung Galaxy Splash Screen then quickly boots off. I changed the battery to my other to see if it was a power problem but instead the phone tries to turn itself on when plugging in a battery. I tried putting it in download mode but it turns off within a few seconds of entering download mode. I cannot enter recovery because it turns off soon after.
I'm kinda screwed here. Help?
Much appreciated. Fast Help Appreciated
Your power button is probably faulty. Either you have to replace it or try to fix it somehow.

Its not that. I was able to boot into Download mode without problems after leaving my phone alone for a few hours. But now its the same thing again. I know its not the power button because i was able to boot before without no problems. Has anyone had this problem before?

Hi all,
I've received my S7 Edge today(Exynos), yay.
All was working flawlessly until few moments ago, I was running 3Dmark, and before I even start to bench, while i was downloading the first scene The screen goes all black, then after 10 seconds, there's a message on top (in the same way a rooted phone would display "kernel is not seandroid enforced..."):
Bootloader Exception
[RST_START = 0x100000000 ]
[...]
Exception: do_handler_serror: SERROR(esr: 0xbf00000000)
[...]
I didn't install any rom, root or else, it's pure stock untouched. I tried to reboot phone using volume down+power, it reboots I think (screen goes all black) but quickly the same message appears...
I'm surely going to call phone operator to tell them that phone is KO, but if one of you guys has any idea that would avoid me to send back phone to warranty, it would be nice
Thanks !
@mods : Sorry for posting in wrong section
Try this...

I'd suggest a factory reset if the above fails.
Hold Power + Volume Up + Menu
Then use the volume keys to scroll to factory reset and select using menu or power buttons.
Hi guys,
Thanks very much for you answers,
Unfortunately any key combination is not working can't get into recovery nor download mode ...
I don't want to try Odin, scared about potential warranty issues ... but it kills me to have to send the phone back to sammy and wait ..

The phone must be off for the Volume Up + Power + Home button combination to work. Keep those pressed for like 10 seconds, even after the phone powers on. I just tried it on my S7 Edge (which drops every call) and could restore to factory settings (but didn't solve the issue).

Thanks for your advices !
Unfortunately, even with this combination and a lot of patience I cannot manage to "bypass" this Bootloader error ...
I'm mad because it will take one month to get a new phone from my operator(just called them ...)
So maybe i'm going to try Odin ... but if I cannot put my phone into download mode, i'm f*ckued, right ?

Nope, the phone doesn't boot anymore... it only displays the bootloader error message...
And no possibility to access reboot or recovery...
Maybe I can try to check with ADB, but my problem is that i would need to active USB debugging in settings ... but i can't do that
Return it. Nand flash died.

Yep, I wanted to avoid it, but I don't see other reasonnable option. The phone didn't last more than 24h ... ok, it happens, I know ...
My previous (Still actual (sic)) Phone was a Note 3 and I installed so much roms, soft bricked the device so many times, but I could always restore it ... But not the S7 EDGE ... And I didn't spot any other user with same bootloader issue...
I've just sent back the phone for replacement, Thanks for all who replied to me in this thread
Oh and by the way : don't download 3DMark from play store , it will Hard brick your phone !!! (haha just kidding , i know it's not what caused my phone to die, I'm sure of it , however I won't try to install it anymore i think^^ )
Cheers XDA crew !!
Mine has done just the same. went to bed, woke up this morning and the same message as yourself.

Sorry to hear that bro
Try things to troubleshoot if you wanna, but my advice : don't lose one day of trying to fix it, send it back directly to warranty...
I tried lot of things, key combination to reboot phone in recovery or download, I tried Kies, Odin, ADB....
I believe it's a real samsung bug that will happen to many people, So send it now before sammy is drowned under hard bricked S7 phones and start to have issues to provide replacement devices....
the S7 edge is getting a "urgent" update on approx 3mb..maybe this is a fix of some sort.

That is to correct the Screen Edge sensitivity
For anyone else who runs into this issue, I managed to fix my phone.
Holding the power and VOL down buttons for about 5-10 seconds will reboot the phone; if you hold home at the same time you can get into download mode (might take a couple tries).
From there, you can flash a new bootloader (BL option in odin) and then get back into recovery to do whatever you need to do.
Went from soft-brick to full restore in about ten minutes--not even a factory reset necessary.
Hope this helps!
