So my Samsung Galaxy Y unexpectedly turned off yesterday. When I try to turn it on it just turns on until the Samsung Galaxy Y GT-s5360 or the welcome screen but turns off again so I tried three times before it turned on. I was able to use the phone for like 5 minutes then it turned off again and from then on I can only turn it on until the Samsung Galaxy Y Welcome screen for 5 seconds only. Take note only 5 seconds or less than 10 seconds. This is not boot loop I am sure for the phone turns off. When I try the volume up + home button + switch button I cannot do anything with it since it turns off in less than 10 seconds. I've been asking around other sites and people told me that this might be because of the internal memory and I think they are correct because my phone has been saying internal memory almost full but I simply uninstall apps. But if this is true then how am I able to delete files if I cannot even access my phone. I dont wanna go to a technician and have it reformated because I would be paying much and I have important files that cant be deleted. Please help me. I need your reply thanks.
Can you enter to odin mode? ( volume down + menu button + power button).
Try installing a stock rom via odin.
If you cant, try this:

are ur important files on sd card or internal memory?
also the best choice is to take it to the service centre

Maybe it's just a small problem. Have you tried charging it? 'coz the battery might be down. If it still dosen't work, see if you can enter odin mode and flash stock firmware.

@Jeannuel I cant enter that mode because my phone shuts off between 5-10 seconds. and the link you gave made my cellphone turn on but its still the same.
@sadish.garg its in the internal memory
@anasdcool71 I cant enter odin mode since I cant turn my phone on. the phone is charged too
You mean to say that it turns off 5-10 seconds in download mode as well?? & if that's the case, then fella!! you've to give it to samsung service center.

1. download odin packages from docky73's thread.
2.Remove everything from your
phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your
computer WITHOUT the battery.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and
vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these
buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download
Mode.
7. Unplug phone from USB
now flash phone via odin...
it may work
Is your problem fixed?

the same problem occurred with me 3 times...the first 2 times what i did was remove the battery for 1 minute or so..then insert it and start charging the phone...after a few hours the charging screen appeared automatically and then i could access the phone...the 3rd time it happened..the above process didint work and i had too take it to the samsung service center and repair it there...when i asked them what the problem was..theys said it happens when u update something although that wasnt true
so finally my advice to u..try the process i tried first..if still it doesnt work..l got no choice but too take ie to the service center...and dont worry they wont charge u anything if your cell is in the warranty period even if its rooted as they hardly bother about it
simply
TURN OFF THE PHONE,
DONT PRESS POWER,
PRESS POWER + HOME + VOLUME UP TOGETHER WHILE THE PHONE IS OFF
there...
power switch problem
change power switch 100% working
I had the same problem,charge ur phone or while it's plugged in charger press (vol up+main+power) their clear ur internal memory no other way have to format internel memory..or try flashing a custom from.

What was the app, and where did you download it from?
And if you hooked your phone up to kies and it saw it....then the phone must be powered up. Remove the battery again, wait 10 minutes, then replace it.

From the silence I assume he realised he hadn't actually turned his phone off at all and sorted it out...or the app killed HIM as well.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Nope im not dead and im a she not a he.
Yes the phone has power but only shows a black screen.
Yes the battery has actually been out all night.
No Kies did not tell me anything i got a box up on my phone when it conected saying could not connect as application open.
The application was called Kids mode by zoodles.
They have sent me 2 ways to reset my phone one of which to hold down the volume button then press the power button which shows a menu choose clear storage using the volume button and the phone should be restored....it doesnt do any of that just turns on.
The other way is this
a) Install the Android SDK from a website they mentioned
b) Connect the phone to the computer with a USB cable
c) Type "adb uninstall com.zoodles.kidmode"
of which i am currently attempting to understand.
If you know any different then your help would be appreciated.
oh and the app itself i found on the android market on my phone
try getting into recovery by pressing vol up+home button+power and release when the S logo pops up
Thank you for that. It didnt work.
Have been defeated all this messing about so have taken in to have system rebooted.
I had the same almost and am still locked in the "Logo of Limbo" ( the big S) after 10 days and dealers trying this and that. Can't say it was an app that caused it, but it seems resetting SGS is a task and a half sometimes

Well, it's not pressing but holding:
Shut down the phone
Hold Vol-Up+Home and power
Release power when you see "Galaxy S, GT-i9000, Samsung" blinks
if this doesnt work, try Vol+Down instead of Up, and update the status here with what you see.
Hey Guys I need some help please!
I have a friend, which will be joining this thread soon, that has a samsung tab 2 GT-P3113 7" .
He is not able to power on the device, I suggested holding the power button down for 30-40 seconds but that didn't work.
He charged it overnight and he can see the charging icon, he then tried again holding the power button for 30-40 seconds...still nothing.
He informed me that when he connects his tab to his computer it says:" I should install OMAP3440 driver for connection".
Sorry , this is all I have, I'm not familiar with the tab 2 .
Thank you!
Isnt there a reset button/procedure? Like hold power button and volume up or down?
My P3110 will not arrive till next week so i can say for sure.
Try holding the Volume Down button and the power button. Keep holding them and you should get a warning about running custom software. If you get this, then you could download an Odin restore package and flash it to the tablet to get it back up and running. The fact that it shows the charging image is a good sign, Hopefully it can be fixed from there.

Yes, I did, but it doesn't work for this tab. Only there is a good sign I can see: the charging icon come up when I plug tab to wall or pc, and when I try to connect to pc, I get a message from pc saying I should install driver for OMAP3440. This is the driver for Texas Instrument processor that come inside tab.
I don't know if this tab is bricked or not, so I'm stop just at this step.
Thanks & thank you so much to spagman72 for his valuable help

Yes, I did exactly as you have said, but it doesn't work, nothing warning about custom software, just black screen. Also, pls note that when I try to connect to pc, I get a message from pc saying I should install driver for OMAP3440. This is the driver for Texas Instrument processor that come inside tab.
Thank you
It is for omap4430 driver (not omap 3440)
Correction: when i have connected tab to pc, message is for install drivers OMAP4430, not OMAP3440 as I have said before. Very sorry for this mistake. :crying: :crying:

Love your rom btw try volume down, (for download), or volume up, (for recovery), First then hold/engage power button and hold, then release power button after boot screen blacks out and continue to hold up or down volume for recovery/download.

If you can get into download mode it may be a good idea to try flashing firmware through Odin to rebuild it back to factory.
I had the same issue after flashing the wrong kernel/ Rom combo while trying to get ubuntu touch to boot.

I had this same problem with one of my Samsung tab 2 GT-P3113 7.0's. After trying everything I could find online I decided to open it up and have a look inside. Opening a 7.0 is different than a 10.1 so check a YouTube video to see how it is done. After removing the back cover I immediately noticed that a small ribbon cable had some how become disconnected. I simply snapped it back into place then checked all of the other ribbon cables I could see and then tried to turn the unit on and it worked! problem solved!
If you have tried all of the other methods posted then you should give this a try, because at that point you have nothing to lose.
My Tablet gets handled by a lot of people daily and most likely it was dropped which caused the cable to be knocked free of its connection.
Good day to all!
I am experiencing a problem with my Samsung Galaxy Y and I badly need your help. This is what happened.
This morning my phone shutdown and kept on opening only until the Samsung Galaxy Y logo. So what I did was removed the battery and put it back again. At around 12 o'clock, I kept doing the same procedure and my phone opened. I was able to send messages to my friends. After 30 minutes, my phone died again. AFTER THAT INCIDENT, THE ONLY WAY TO OPEN IT IS BY REMOVING THE BATTERY, AND BY PUTTING IT BACK AGAIN, IT BOOTS UP TO THE SAMSUNG GALAXY Y LOGO ONLY! then it turns off. In order for it to open again, I'll have to remove the battery then back again. But it keeps on dying. It only reaches the Samsung Galaxy Y logo for around 5 seconds.
I tried putting it on Download Mode, but after 5 seconds it dies again.
Thank you,
Hoping for you replies, ASAP!

Yes. And rooted phone= warranty exploited. So, as far as you have a stock rom( non rooted) you're good to go.
Just tell them you tried to update using kies and it got stuck.

I'm not using SGY's stock rom. I'm using Hyperion 8. What will they do to me if they found out that my phone is rooted?
If they find out and your phone's under warranty then they will not consider the warranty. Since you can't flash the stock rom just tell them that your phone got stuck in between the process of updating the firmware via kies. They will try to flash the stock rom via other methods and i guess then they won't know. I'm not really sure but am telling of what all I've read on online forums.
Good day fellow XDA developers and members.
I got an update with my phone. I think the power button got stuck. Why?
1.) I can access download mode with just pressing Volume down + home button
- *it boots in Download mode but closes after 5 seconds*
2.) Once it boots into the Samsung Galaxy Y Logo it closes after 4 or 5 seconds.
- I think that can only be triggered if you are still holding the power button.
3.) Every time I insert the battery, my phone turns on by itself BUT only until the Samsung Galaxy Y logo then it shuts down.
What do you guys think? As far as I know, you can't access download mode with just volume down + home button.
Thank you for your support! PLEASE KEEP ON HELPING ME! STAY TUNED FOR MORE DETAILS!

i have a galaxy y 5510 (the one with the qwerty keyb)
which won't go past the "samsung galaxy y" screen when it boots. it just shuts down after 2sec after i turn it on.
i can't go into recovery mode.
i managed to get to download mode pressing vol down + home + power, i manage to press vol up tu get further into the menu, but it will just turn off. It actually looks like i can use odin to do something from there, but i can't because it turns off, it just won't stay "awake" for more than 2 sec.
i also found a guide ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465800 ) which let me flash what i want from download mode, but since it will not stay on for more than 2 seconds i can't do anything...
i tried with another battery, but it's the same...
if i plug the power it won't charge and the pc does not see anything attached to the usb port.
what can i do? is it time to throw it away?
Bro connect with charger ur phone then wipe data/cache ...hope phone will be fine

as i wrote before i can't turn on the phone, how can i go into settings or dial the code? i can also access download mode, and for a very short time, and i don't have time to let odin run.
i also tried with another battery and it will still turn off after 2 seconds, so i'd rule out the battery as a problem.

it did not work...
i read some stuff about the usb jigs... since they are quite cheap, it wouldn't a bad idea to try it out... but i just found this http://www.xda-developers.com/android/need-a-samsung-usb-jig-build-your-own/ but i am reading it now... i hope it's not too hard...
maybe you have problem with your Power Button same to mine.
Try to pull out your battery then take it back again press volume Up + Home button (yes its recovery mode but dont press Power Button) if your phone enters to recovery Mode you have Problem with your Power Button:good:
Try to Press your Power Button Continuously and Hard as you can until you get in your Home Screen
Hello everyone,
I have an S3 neo, it's 6 months old. About 2 months ago i started checking in this forums, and then i flashed cm12, and started adding custom roms to my phone. Everything was well, phone was working fine, and so on.
One morning i woke up and my phone went off, and when i turn it on, it's black screen. I restarted few times, took out memory card, and poof it worked. Was all good.
I left it like that and next morning it happened again. And since then i tried all the ways, like take out battery, hold power button 1 min then try to turn it on after few minutes, and so on. Nothing worked. Pulling out memmory card or sim card didn't work either. It's like this for almost 2 weeks i can't use the phone.
I cant get in download mode or custom recovery i i don't know why it won't react on that. It turns on each time like normally, led notifiaction works, the lights on home and back button works, only screen is black. I can unlock it, and such things but cant see anything.
I even succesfully did a factory reset over play store from pc, but that didn't help either..
Biggest problem is that its under warranty but since custom rom i can't take it to service unless i have money to pay... which i dont
I have NEVER DROPPED it, it was never in water, and so on. Doesn't have a scratch at all.
It even has sound, and everything. Just freaking black screen ....
So what i am asking is if anyone here knows how to remove custom rom and custom recovery over pc,is it possible, without the screen? Any way to do it so i can get warranty back ? All i need is a freaking stock rom and stock recovery and a binary reset i guess. Just freaking would need screen to work for 5 mins eh....
If anyone has any ideas please post them, thanks..

I think you can boot to download mode or revovery. The LED notifi and backlight buttons won't turn on if you boot to download mode or recovery.
Just try to boot to...
1. download mode. Just press and hold for 2-3 seconds power + home + volume down
2. then wait 3 seconds. After that press volume up.
3. Connect your phone to pc, open odin and check if a device is connected.
4. If a device was found by odin - flash a ROM (stock or something else) and hope that this will fix the black screen problem.
Good luck!!
Hi, thanks for ur reply but... My phone turns on when i click home + volume down + power button. I hear sound, blue led notification and so on.......
But when turned on, when i connect to usb odin recognizes it, says connected, and when i try to install the rom i it takes really long and on the end i get fail..*attached the screenshot of fail) I guess because its not in download mode. Any other suggestions how i could get in download mode more?
More suggestions please?thanks
Anyone has any ideas ?
So what all i tried is
Remove battery, hold power button for 1-2 mins, let phone for few mins and turn it on. didn't work
I tried with adb,but usb debugging not on so cmd cant find my device
Only thing left i guess if someone has idea how to get in download mode in some other way or some program that doesnt reguire download mode but can flash rom and etc.
@Crazeh
Take it back to the nearest service center and act the dumb ("I don't know what is wrong with it")
I have done that many times
They are prob gonna call me and tell me to pay for fix
No one has any idea what else should i try ?
try link2sd app form play store. it has the option to boot to download mode. I think titanium backup has the feature also.
My screen is black so i can't do anything on it.....
try to disable ambient screen. report if problem persist
How should i disable ambient screen ? While i can't see anything on phone cause of black screen ?thanks for reply Rox
Anyone?

ok so i think your problem isn't due to any rom but hardware problem
power off your phone remove the back , look on the left you see a little trap , open it , now you see connector it is the one of the screen try to see if you can disconnect and reconnect it
power on your phone and see if it work :fingers-crossed:
Where is that little trap?
btw if i do this will i loose my warranty completely ?

If Odin recognizes it, it means it's in Download mode. The device has different interaction with the host over USB when it's not in Download mode.
I don't see the screenshot of the failure. It may be that something got broken in your hardware, so the flashing fails. There's a known issue with the S3 called "Sudden death syndrome", I don't know if it applies also to the S3 Neo, where some of the memory of the ROM fails suddenly. If that is the case (I'm not saying it is, but it might be), there's no fix other than replacing the hardware.
Odin doesnt go over setup connection. cant post screenshot bc im new to the site. btw im sure the phone is on but recognized in odin...
