You need to put your battery off for 5 minutes and then you can try go to DN mode or recovery.

I used to have this problem and the culprit is the stuck and broken power button.

Why cant you enter the downloade mode / recovery? All you have to do is hold volume up or down with the home button when you put the battery in. You don't need to press the power button then.

IMO...maybe it called SOD or Screen Of Death and in simple word is "bricked"
But you said thay you can go to download mode right?
If yes...try to flash it one more time with your default firmware.
But if still doesn't work at all, try to contact your local service center...my friend also had the same problem like you and he brought it to Samsung Service Center...

Please tell me what to do, I dont have sound please please
Your phone is not bricked but semi-bricked. It happend with me as well. Just pull the battery out, while inserting the battery keep pressing buttons for download mode. You should see download mode and reflash.

I dont live in the US so I cant contact Samsung or ATT
I cant move to Download mode with voldown+home+power, each time I do it i see the ATT logo and the phone reset itself again untill I will stop trying to go to download mode or recovery mode
Are you sure you are doing it right?
Correct order of doing it is:
Take battery off, wait 10 sec, put it back on.
Press vol down
While pressing vol down, press home
While pressing both above, press power and release after it starts.

I think you don't release the power button after the boot. If you push for a long time the power button it reset like the power button of the pc.

if indroid is a tar file, open and verify whether there is bootlader and sbl.bin. You can use 7zip, winrar to open it. If they are not there, its good
Remove the battery
Reinsert the battery
Press volume down key + Press Home Key + press power button. This will take you to download mode. Reflash the ROM
During reflash leave the system idle till the time you dont see reset in ODIN. ensure that during idle process system doesnt go to standby. This usually happens with factoryfs.rfs file
To download mod I can not go. How can I get to recovery mod? I am not sure. Is any way how to go to root of mobile if mobile is switched down?
Please, help me....
recovery is vol up+vol down+home+power. but is the boot.bin and sbl.bin included in the tar of indroid?
NO, there are only: cache.rfs, factoryfs.rfs, datafs.rfs, zImage
To recovery mod I can not get too
So, what do you think about my problem? Can I repair it?
Please, do you have any ideas how to repair it?
Hmm if there weren't any boot loader files then maybe you might have ran out of battery. Try charging your phone and check if the charger animation appears also is the phone completely turned off or does it start then stop?
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App
It doesn´t do anything. The display is still only black. Mobile doesn´t react. But I have mobile conected to charge cable and battery is quite hot so mobile is probably charging.
Disconnect the charger wait till it cools down then try turning it on and remove the battery while its cooling down and what happens when you hold the power button down.

If you can reach recovery that means you can reach download mode. You are somehow pressing volume up + Vol down.... Try specifically pressing vol down key
If that fails, and your phone had usb debugging enabled....boot the phone, it will be stuck in the middle....Connect usb cable and use adb, command "adb reboot download" . I am not sure it will work but its worth to try
He can't boot the phone or go into recovery mode. Something tells me It is his battery
Sent from my GT-I5800 using XDA App
wait for some time...remove battery wait for 15 mins...plug it again n go into recovery mode or download mode! tell me and try!
And the rom is already flashed...indroid doesnt come with a bootloader...no custom ROMs these days come! :/
Thank you for your ideas. I have tried this one with adb but nothing. Now I a trying to remove battery and give it again after 15 minutes. I hope to it will be good.
Please what it means that rom doesn't have bootloader?
EDIT: This rom is with kernel but I didn't install this kernel on my mobile. Could it be the problem?

Hmm, basically bootloader is when you start your phone it says GT-i5800 samsung and if it's not there you can't start your phone. Also I need to know can you turn on your phone or not.
Oh I thought something like this.... I can not turn my phone on
So nothing happens when you hold down the power button?
nothing

[Q] Hard brick in Samsung Galaxy Y, any solution?

when i turn on my smartphone it doesn't stay on for many time a few seconds. Appears the samsung logo and turn off itself. it get in odin mode but turn off about 5 seconds after. I can install kernel, but it does not solve. When i try get into cmw it appears "can't mount system" I don't know what to do. Take a look in this movie to see it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0aAPbrsm2Y&feature=plcp
if odin does'nt solve anything,
get it to a service center to fix it
Odin mode dosen't stay for more than 5 secs? Recharge your phone and try again.

I had same case. Really same. If anyone got this case, the problem is power button.
my galaxy Y was bricked and while get in odin mode or recovery mode, he restarts automatically and continuously.
and after i tried to flash many times, it worked. but, after about 10 secs on homescreen, he restarts again and again.
i'm frustated but im lucky. bcause i was thinking about the power button. i checked it by remove and insert the battery.
i got strange thing, my phone starts automatically. voila! i was right. the power button is error. its like the button is pressed (but i dont).
so, i open up the casing, and i tried to knock knock (LOL) the power button and everything i did to solve the button problem.
then TADA, my phone is back!
sorry for bad english.

all the phone is doing is boot loop
Of course you can. i think that you should shutdown the device and just hold the three buttons, it should work if you on bootloop

a bit of a problam
when i press the power button nothing happen, the only why to shutdown is let the battery drain
from the bootlooping but in the moment I plug the phone to charge so I can do something he is bootlooping

Well that's deffinately weird.
Is it under warrenty? Because if you can't get to download mode I'm thinking that's a next step.
How about recovery? Can you get to recovery? Power plus volume up?

if I could get in to recovery , this thread was not exist because in "basic" bootloops
I know how to fix.
warrenty it's a bit of a problam because my phone is rooted and rooted phones disable the warrenty
but it's dont boot up so how can know he is rooted LOL, I think I'll go to the store i bought it from
and ask to fix this, but I prefer to fix it in my home so if threre is a solution I'll take it

[Q] Can someone help with the solution?

Hey guys,my phone will automatically turn itself on when i insert my battery. Then after the Samsung logo, the screen automatically turns black. I first suspected that it was a battery problem, but that did not turn out to be the case. I think it has something to do with the power button. I also tried to boot it up into recovery mode but the screen still went black before i had the chance to do anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Why you said that the battery is ok?
It's definitely a stuck power button

Try to let the battery drain and make the phone die, then try to charge it when its off and get to download from when its off.
Also have you tried a jig to get into download mode and stay there?
