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!
Did you try flashing stock?

I already tried that. My battery works on my friends SGY. When I use his battery it's just the same problem.
Maybe it's a hardware problem.... Though u try flashing stock Rom using odin like he said..... If it happens again I think it's a job for the service centre.... Good luck

Maybe The problem is in your hardware, because if your phone bootloop your phone not turn off automaticaly after 5 second
I sugest you to take it to samsung center

If I'll bring it to the service center, will they know if I rooted my device and changed its ROM?
Btw, I have Hyperion 8 as my ROM

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!

If its a hardware problem and you are not interested in taking your phone apart yourself then i think no one here can help you...
Take it to a service center or take your phone apart and check what the problem is....
Good day to all XDA developers and members!
Thank you for the support you showed by sending your opinions. I already fixed my phone a while ago! It's the power button that causes my phone to shutdown on boot. So what I did is took a small scissor like tool and pulled the power button out!
Thank you again XDA!

Would be better if you stop using colors in your posts. It hurts eyes when using mobile app. Not complaining though.
And nice to hear that you got your phone fixed.

Hello..I am a newbie so please bare with me. I have a Galaxy Tab and i wanted to use LCD Density. So i rooted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=812367) .I change to the new resolution 130Dpi,and restart the device.But then it stock on the logo.I tried factory restore but didn''t work. Next i tried http://androidspin.com/2010/08/09/ho...msung-vibrant/ . Every thing worked perfect,but after i finished the device starts for 2-3sec then shuts down.I don''t know what to do.I am afraid i did something very wrong.But everything i did was exactly as i saw on forum and everything went exactly as it supouose to be. Thank you!
Today i woke up a little disperate and i tried http://www.techlivez.com/2010/07/how-to-upgrade-galaxy-s-to-android-2-2-tutorial/. Now it's not starting at all,and the flashlight(from camera) it's stays on).If i press the power button for a few second the flash goes out but after 2-3 sec it's back.
PS:i am from Romania,bought my Tab from Orange
Had the same problem here, your phone is blocking at the Samsung screen, your phone is actualy booted but not able to load touchwiz. wich app did you use? If you used one which survives reboot you have a problem otherwise hold the start button for more then 7 seconds and it should work.

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:

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?

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

DONT PRESS POWER,
PRESS POWER + HOME + VOLUME UP TOGETHER WHILE THE PHONE IS OFF

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

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:

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.
Hey guys,
First of all, I searched for my problem but couldn't find a solution anywhere. This is the most unusual kind of "bootlogo stuck". My phone shows the bootlogo for several seconds, then turns off. I go to the recovery mode (CWM), it appears ("reboot system now", "...", all that), but then again the bootlogo appears and after several seconds the phone turns off. I go to the download mode, it appears, but then again, I see the bootlogo and my phone turns off. So obviously flashing the stock rom turned out to be a failure in this case. I first thought that maybe I needed to recharge my phone. But when I plugged the charger, there was no display of the battery icon. I left it like that, hoping it was charging, but the same problem occurred after a while when I checked. Oh, and one more thing, whenever, I took out the battery and put it back again, the bootlogo showed up (even when I hadn't touched the power or any button!).
It's been several months since I detached myself from Android development. The last ROM that I flashed was Hyperion 8 four months ago, I don't exactly remember the kernel that came with it.
If power button seems to b the issue, you can fix it by *slightly* striking its side against a hard surface(may b table or wall). You might not believe but this method is 99% working.
But do this only when u r left with no choice. Don't get me wrong

i also had this issue... you can't catch up with recovery console or download mode because the phone automatically turns off..
Reason: The power switch is shorted... But sometimes the rubber between the power button and the switch in the circuit is jammed... i fixed it myself... replaced the microswitch myself.....
Same problem
HELP!! Same problem. Stroked against hard surface and flashed the ROM.
nothing worked. Help please.
Cool !!
It really did work! what a hardware i've got here.
Well mine S4 turned of last night it freezed and it turned off. I'm on Broodroms Pre Final 4.4.4. After that it turned on and shows only the S4 splash screen and then it turns off again and it won't turn on. After i pulled out the battery and placed it back then it boots but then again it shows only the S4 splash screen and then it turns off again. I've read some things on the internet that it maybe can be a dead battery that is causing this problem. Or maybe it is an another problem maybe that you XDA members can help me it would be great :fingers-crossed:

If u can boot to recovery, flash your stock official rom. Should be fixed after that.
Or you can also flash your official rom in Odin.

Check you power button, maybe it's stucked. I've read many cases of S4 stucked power button.

Is your phone charged? The very basic question.
Put it on charging for a while try getting in the download mode then.
If still no succes..then there is a way too...

That happened to me once and reason was because the phone was not charging (even if USB has power supplied).
To solve this, I first removed it from the samsung charger and charged it using a laptop or computer for approximately 10 minutes.
That will get it charging

try booting into download mode if at all possible and try flashing a stock ROM via odin!!
hit Thanks if it helped!!
I've tried to connect it to my laptop but it won't charge unfortunately. I'm also not possible to get it in to download mode it shutdown after a few seconds. And it wil only turn on If I remove the battery and replace it the phone will vibrate, show the Galaxy S4 splash screen for a second or two, then it turns off again. Searching on the internet people say that it's a faulty battery so i could try that method and if that is not working i think it's something with the mainbord (i hope not)

Change the battery AND/OR
Try a USB JIG then. The final thing that can be done. Heard it works with i9500 too.
Buy yourself a USB JIG from ebay or something and try getting in the download mode. It costs less than INR200.
Thank me if I helped

Sure.
Might be some moisture that is not letting the electricity pass properly too...
Clean the terminal of the battery and the connectors of the phone..see if this works?

Yes i will buy a new battery and try to turn it on again, And otherwise i'm going to use my mates S4 to flash a stock ROM onto it by placing my mainbord in that S4
Well i've received my new battery and tried it but the same result so i don't know what could be the next problem maybe you people have got some other ideas what the problem could be? (hope so)
I've made a video of the problem. Don't mind the screen it's broken for half a year so far and the phone was still functional. Last sunday this problem appeared and i don't know what to do so far...

Well i finally found the problem it was the power button that was jammed the whole time so removed the power button thing from the mid frame and the problem was solved so now i need to go to a phone repair shop and maybe they can solder a new power button switch on the mainbord thank you for your help and this thread can be closed now.
