My S4 won't turn on at all Help :( - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Today while using my S4 it just stopped working and it doesn't respond anymore I thought it was just a bug so I pulled out the battery and tried to boot it angain
it boots directly into the Download Mode with a message "Cannot do normal boot"
so I decieded to flash a clean ROM from SAMMOBILE.Com with Odin and while I was browsing through the ROMs the phone turned off suddenly and now refuses to turn on it doesn't respond anymore even if plug in the charger
Plzzz Help me

you can buy a "USB JIG" from ebay
or search on youtube "how to make a usb jig"

A jig won't help you here. My guess is that you have some hardware failure.

If it is firmware related, then you can download the OFW Firmware from the samsung site, and flash it with odin

if you still got warranty send your phone to samsung,they will repair for you..
from my experience,if you have flash custom firmware and you got 0x1 flag your warranty is void
but if your phone is completely dead just send it to them for repair
give it a try first

Pull the battery, wait 30 sconds. If you have a Jig insert it in the phone`s usb port to get into download mode. If not press volume down and the power button and you will get into downloadmode and then flash a stock rom with Odin. See item 1 and 2 of my signature.
It's Not Working !

Did this happen after using Kies? If it did (and you weren't rooted), you could either take it back to the store where you purchased it or get in touch with Samsung for a warranty repair.
pull of battery -->plug usb jig --> pull battery --> download mode --> unplug usbjig --> odin flash stock firmware

...sounds like an OTA bricked your phone. If that's the case (and you don't have a jig), you've definitely need to take it back to where you got it.
A totally legit brick by the sounds of it.
Take it to service for fix or replace. Easy

bro there is nothing to worry just go to the nearest service center & tell them you were updating your phone via KIES SOFTWARE of samsung but in between there was a power cut so update stoped in between & after that my phone was not starting ....thats it they would do the needful & repair your handset....hoping your phone will be in warranty...
@EthanDev : dude games like clash of clans and few others were showing huge framedrop and other performance bugs were there and also i was happy with my rooted 4.3 jb, thats why i tried that
@grohitsurana: yes have done that only, gave my phone to the service center few hours ago, hope those guys make it work again

Hi
My first suggestion would be take it back to where you got it , is on warranty right?
When you flashed stock rom as suggested on the thread you posted , did it all go ok? what rom version rom you had on the phone , what rom version you tried to flash?...you know you cannot downgrade, you should use same or newer rom to re flash your phone ( odin)
