[Q] Spica doesn't turn on

I had Cyanogenmod 6.1.1alpha8.1 on my spica. Recently it got a little bit laggy so i decided to flash it with odin to restore the original firmware and install everything else from the beginning. I tried to flash it with I5700XXJH6. The flashing went fine, but when spica started booting, only the first, static bootlogo showed up and there was even no progress bar. After 20 minutes nothing had happened so i tried to flash it with 1.5, then install Lk10 to get into recovery mode, so i could get access to the phone's shell. Unfortunately, after flashing everything was the same - static bootlogo and no progress bar. Installing LK10 went fine, but the phone still wouldn't boot into recovery mode. I tried many different ROMs and one of them worked - the system booted properly, everything seemed to work at first glance, but when i inserted the SIM card and input the PIN code, the phone got stuck on "Unlocking SIM card". I tried rebooting many times but it didn't work.
Once again i tried to flash it with odin and everything was the same as before. I tried a few times, but now there's no download mode and when i connect the phone to the charger, nothing shows up on the screen.
Is there anything else i can try to do?

i had and solved the same issue yesterday.
I think part of the issue is maybe with a previous FileSystem conversion and another part with data/cache from previous Roms.
Try to make an install as clean as possible.
- I5700XXJH6 with Odin
- LK2.08 with odin
now you have an acessable recovery.
- boot the phone and put the CyanogenMod 6.1.1 alpha8.1 (found on 'forum dot samdroid dot net') on the root of the sdcard.
- shutdown the phone.
Important: disconnect the phone before booting in recovery, else it will boot normaly.
- boot in recovery (Volume down, accept call, on/off button)
- apply the downloaded zip.
reboot normaly, if it loads normaly, yay!
If it doesnt load (wait 5 mins to be sure) pull out battery.
reboot in recovery, and wipe data/cache (factory reset)
reboot normaly, if it loads normaly, yay!
If it doesnt load (wait 5 mins to be sure) pull out battery.
reboot in recovery, and make sure data,cache and system are rfs.
to change it to rfs 'advanced>filesystem conversion'
reboot normaly, if it loads normaly, yay!
if not send me a PM.

I already tried installing I5700XXJH6 and LK2.08 but neither the system nor the recovery mode would load - only the first, static bootlogo showed up. I can't try again because the download mode doesn't work any more and when i connect the charger, the screen remains black.
As I wrote in the first post, i managed to get it working once, but it had problems with the SIM card, so i tried different ROMs, which seems to have broken my spica entirely.
Is there anything i can do to restore the download mode?

im assuming you tried starting downloadmode without it being connected to a pc.
I dont know how to restore downloadmode, perhaps the guys at the samdroid forum can help you out.

AW: help black-screen boot-loader mod
have you tried to do a full wipe in stock recovery?
press power & x for some seconds. when you see the exclemation mark press vol plus and minus at the same time.
then do a factory reset. this will wipe all data. after that your ms2 will boot the flashed stock rom, hopefully...
plaese give feedback after trying...
edit: i saw in your video that you still have the froyo kernel. here you have to press the @ sign, when you see the exclemationmark...

[Q] Reboot & Power Off Problem

Hi,
I'm using SM-G900f with Fusion ROM.
I decided to reboot my device which normally worked without any problems. But this time it got stuck on black screen and I couldn't turn it on/off. I tried like 3 time and the same thing kept happening. Even when I just turn off the device it's still stuck on a black screen and doesn't turn off unless I remove the battery. I would really appreciate if anyone knows a solution for this or has information on what I'm dealing with. I tried wiping cache and dalvik cache but didn't help.
Thanks.

Got no answers here so I tested wiping cache/dalvik cache, system and install the same ROM on top with fusions TRWP.
I can now reboot to recovery atleast which lets me reboot/shutdown but I still can't reboot or shut it down normally.

[HELP!] After E5 bootloops and left it for a day, it won't turn on!

My device is E500H, it turned bootloop. But then, I am confident because I know how to fix it so I download the firmware to fix it throught ODIN. But when I try to fix it and switch to download mode, IT WONT SWITCH (After I left it for almost 24 hrs). I thought it's BATTERY IS LOW. So I charged it for an hour, and after it I check it again but there still no response. -_- WHAT HAPPENED? How can I fix this? This is my first time to encounter this and first time to post here because really need urgent help.

Solved
Since its a bootloop try draining the battery fully. Then connect your charger. Immediately before the boot logo apears hold the three buttom combo for recovery mode. Wipe data and cache and then reboot. Hope I helped

False alarm, yea you are right. It was drained. Haha. Though, after I flashed the firmware the bootloops still persist. -_- Tried many times flashing via Odin but when it reboots, the problem is still there.

You have to factory reset via recovery.

Remove cache from recovery.

When it stuck on the animation then press volume down+power+home button together for some time , it will again go into download mode , then flash previous rom which you were using earlier ,After flashing previous rom factory reset then wipe data /cashe . Now again flash rom which you want to install.

I experienced the same problem in my galaxy E7. I had 87% charge when i flashed the new update and it stuck in a bootloop.
Drained the battery. Connected charger and went to recovery before it started. Cleared cache and did factory reset. Started normally after that.

poco m3 not turning on

ok guys i know there are loads of threads about thois but ive got a slightly differen situation.
my daughter had this phone and then it suddenly tured off and wouldn't turn back on, i managed to get it to boot by disconnecting the battery and plugging it while holding the power down and reconnecting the battery which put me into fastboot then the boot to edl script made the phone boot. i have since unlocked the bootloader and flashed twrp and the reflashed the stock firmware which worked for a few hours but i tried to reboot it and now it wont boot, i can get to twrp but even if i flash the stock firmware it refuses to boot any idea on what i should do to try to get this phone to boot up?

Try to flash a custom rom, as far as i know this problem is caused by a MIUI update.

i have tried to flash a couple but every time i try it fails with error 7 and tried the normal fix but it doesnt help. then anything i do in twrp makes the system unmount and then it cant mount again. the only eay to get to get it to boot again is to take the back off and disconnect the battery and hold the power button down when i reconnect it but ive got no idea why it does this.
