I tried to load up the new gingerbread roms from my current one. I downloaded its content and tried to install it via clockwork.
I first deleted system, logo, and cache followed up by a restore format. When trying to download the new rom, I was getting a weird error that was stopping me from completing the full installation. So basically was in a chokehold because I didn't have any backup files or another working rom in the sd at that time. I just restarted the phone and it for a few times was stuck on the M screen, but now its just green led when I plug it into the computer usb. When plugging it into the outlet, it imediately turns on stuck on the M screen and shuts off when unplugging as if the battery isnt charging at all.
Sounds like ur going to have to sbf.

bootloader is such a rare occurance for me, i just had it come out but it was flashing low battery. the thing is, im not quite sure if its charging if i have it plugged into the computer. when i have it plugged into an outlet, the M splash screen comes up so i'm worried that draining the power..
edit: now it flickers for a split second, am i supposed to hold on to it til something shows up? been like 1 minute
i dont think bricking phone blows your battery. at least i hope it doesnt, was working fine before.
Plug it in without the battery if a question mark comes up you ned to use another battery cuz it won't charge in boot loader and the boot loader should pop up right away hold power volume down and camera button it takes about three seconds

well its basically the same thing. when plug into the outlet it shows the m splash screen with or without the battery.
when its plugged into the compuiter however, its just flickers once. when it is done with the battery in, the led is on forever
EDIT: OBSERVATION
when on the wall, it is actually charging, but REALLY slowly because of the fact that the splash screen stays on. found this out because i had it in for30 min and then tried to connect mit to my comp with bootload and it loaded for a few minutes with the low battery flashing.
is version 320 the latest?
Okay. so it isnt charging as I though because its not working at all... problem is, I dont know if it truly is a battery defect. If I were to Buy a new battery, how would i know if it is charging if it doesnt boot and just stays stuck on the M logo screen?
perhaps I should by a battery charger where i take the battery out and charge it through there? because my bootloader always gives me the same low battery.
Do you have any friends with the same phone? There is also a macgyver (spelling?) Method of doing this by cutting the USB cable open and attaching the cable ends to the battery. However I would only do this if you're really desperate
i just really need make complete sure that this phone is INFACT dead battery
when not plug, it doesnt turn on what so ever with a white spark on the led.
when plugged nto outlet the logo shows but i isnt charging because it isnt booting
when plugged into the computer it is a solid green which i think represent a dead or a low battery state(can someone back thisup?)
Your battery is dead, as in drained, but should work fine once you get your phone to a bootable state again. The problem is that, in the state your phone is in, there's no charging capabilities. Bootloader won't do it, neither will sitting at the M logo. So, you just need to find someone with a compatible battery to let you use it to SBF your phone. Then, boot the phone up completely, and let your battery charge to at least 50-60% before trying to install a ROM. Preferably, I'd go with a full charge, just in case you end up in a similar situation again.
This is nothing to freak out over, you'll be fine.. the only problem you have is that your battery has no juice, as confirmed by the low battery warning in the bootloader, when you successfully got it to load.

thanks for the reassuring comment, however, i think i need to bootload.
i accidently did the partition hat formats everything.. cant recall if it was under clockwork because it didnt have the same interface, i was all light blue text with an ok button on the left corner. Anyway, i've completely destroyed the phone as in no roms no factory.
can I possibly get a dock to charge this battery and then get into bootloader for an sbf session
? Even if I did have battery, im pretty sure i just hover at the logo screen

You definitely need to use the bootloader, and I was implying that in the first reply(SBF'ing requires going into the bootloader). If you had a stand-alone battery charging cradle/dock, that should do the trick. Just make sure to let the battery charge sufficiently. I've successfully gotten an SBF completed, starting with only 30% battery. SBF takes about 7 minutes on my laptop(not that I've timed it, but I usually light up a smoke when I start the process lol). So, as long as the battery is charged enough to no longer give the "Low Battery" warning in the bootloader, you should be fine.
You got your usb cable and put the ends where the battery goes that's how I got mine working try it

I got a HD2 from a friend and he installed Android on NAND and it worked after installation but after he tried to reboot it didn't turn on.
Now I'm trying to get it working but the screen stays black and there is no red led when i plug it into the power connector.
I hope someone can help me.
looks like a dead unit or dead battery?
if the batt, is OK try pressing the power & the reset red button at the back near the batt.
How did he make the restart? a battery pull?
If yes, probably the pins aren't making connection with the battery, try to straighten them delicately.
Okay i tried it with a different charged battery but nothing happened so i think its dead.

Have you checked the pins as Marvlesz suggested? Make sure they make contact with the battery, I very highly doubt that the phone would suddenly die after being turned off.
I currently have a stock standard SGS3, when i put the phone on charge, and leave it the green led eventually shows, i then press the power button to wake the phone and i see a green battery. At this point i cant do anything swiping doesnt do anything and the phone then shows a black screen. I then need to restart the phone. Has anyone else experiencing this issue?

It sounds like your charging the phone while it's switched off. Just put it on the charger without turning it off.

when the "green battery" shows, reclick (hold) the power button again, it should boot.
When the phone is off and you charge it , it shows that animation.

Thanks I have no problem booting the phone from the green battery icon. My problem is that i charge the phone while it is on and for some strange reason it switches off when it is fully charged, surely this is not normal.
I normally leave my phone charging overnight and when i wake it the morning i have to reboot from the green battery screen
This does not happen all the time, and i'm using the standard samsung charger
Your phone may have a problem due to excess charging where something freeze it down after the normal three hour charge .
See what happens on a normal charge .
Otherwise return under warranty .

Hello guys!
I'm an Ace user but one of my friend got a big problem with his an LG GT540. Once his phone chrarged down he couldn't ever Power on again.
Now, the phone is at me. If i plug USB cable or my samsung baterry charger to the phone, it works like a good phone but after 10-15sec screen goes to black and cant make it light again. (No anwser for buttons)
BUT if i plug out and plug in again the screen get light and works for 10-15sec again.
I couldnt get to Recovery Mode/ or make a Hard Reset. ( I cannot turn on the phone with the POWER button, so USB cable or battery charger the only way)
+ battery is fully charged.
Need help! Thanks in advance!
(sorry for my bad english)
Mods can close this im going to make a new topic.

An important question...Which rom do you use?
I was texting when suddenly my phone became very slow and I decided to restart it, since it didn't restart as quickly as it usually does, I took off the battery and put it back. Tryed to turn on the phone but it just lights up the central button and vibrates a single time, and the screen doesn't light up or anything... how do I fix it?
Try to use a different battery. My battery died in the same maner
