it boots so it is just a soft brick.
did you try pulling out the battery for at least 10 mins before using odin?
some of my colleagues say that it automatically shuts down because
of hardware problems

Still no good sir shutting down automatically </3
It happened to me once i dont clearly recall how that happened but it was sorted out automatically. Try using a different battery from any other sgy user if you know any. And see what happens.
Edit: I just remembered It is most possible power button issue. Try to use a pin to pull out the power button. If it doesnt work then if you are okay with opening phones then rip off your galaxy y and push the power button out. Or else give it in any local repairing store they can do that for you.

Anybody knows what's wrong and how do I solve it? Here's the entire story (if it helps):
I went to Play and updated my apps. I press and held the power button and selected "restart". (I restart my device regularly) However, after shutting down, it does not boot at all and no matter how many times I press the power button it just wouldn't boot up!
I tried charging it too. Nothing happens even after plugging in.

Can you get to the boot loader, if so, try to wipe data from the recovery within the boot loader.
Or else leave the battery to drain fully , this will solve your problem and the tab will boot.
This happened to me couple of weeks ago and draining the battery solved this issue.

May I know how do I get to the bootloader? I can't even allow the battery to drain. The problem is it is not even starting at all. I pressed the power button a million times and NOTHING happens at all, the screen didn't even turn on.

You can get to the boot loader by pressing power button + volume down at the same time.
try it.

Nope. I wish it did.
Try to hold the power button in about 4 or 5 seconds. I doubt it'll do anything. It sounds like there's a problem with power button or hardware.
I had a thrive 7 before I got my gtab 7.7 and my first one I exchanged because of a problem identical to yours. It was very sketchy to power on.
Exchange or warranty if you can unless someone else has any ideas

Only alternative left to leave it till battery drains, if you can remember the battery percentage before this happens, otherwise i am out of solutions.
A service center would be an alternative choice.

I decided to give it another shot a minute ago and it miraculously worked! I have no idea what's wrong or what caused the positive issue but am happy that it is fine now. Thanks guys!
Hello, recently my phone has been having issues. The power button stopped work, it started first when I would unlock my phone, it would give me the power down screen then a few seconds later it would shut off.
Now it wont turn on... I have to pull the battery out and then put it back in then it shows the samsung logo and shuts off. To get pass the samsung logo I held the volume up button and then it will start up. I can only use my phone when I unlock with the camera which is very annoying.
I have tried just about everything and I have scoured the web to look for any sort of solution. I have hard rest, and I even tried flashing it with a rom. But the phone just shuts down.
I hate being a pain, but is there any solution?

Luckily, I think the button is easy to change and it's cheap. But I'd go to a phone shop to confirm first (like this one in US - no affiliation, found via search).
experiencing the same thing

Hi im actually getting the exact same symptom. Did you ever get to fix yours??
hi guys. today my galaxy s4 suddenly rebooted and now it cant get past the galaxy s4 screen on boot. it automaticly gets into this screen for several seconds, then a black screen and then again. also, when i put in the battery it automaticly starts, and gets in this loop.
i searched the forum a little and i suspect it is somthing with the home button. do i need to replace the whole display to fix thix? or what should i do.
And some important infomation, my home button is a little bent for the last 5 months, but so far it had no problems.
Have you tried to start recovery or download?
Remove the battery, wait half a minute, reinsert the battery and push at the same time Vol Up+Home+Power keys.
If that works you may wipe Cache and Dalvik Cache and maybe it will boot normally again.

Ahh...check your power button..it might be stuck for sure!
Try pressing it in various ways or open it up to see if it is stuck or not..

power button or home button..? power button looks fine but home is bent and not working for a while.
I agree with @DeepankarS. Seems your power button is stuck.
If so it is a good reason to have the bootloop. Please double check it.

there is a huge difference mate in being okay and looking okay
Thus is not the first kinda problem..the download mode rebooting is directly liked to it..because the download mode will never reboot without the power button being pressed (exceptions ignored)
Try tapping it on a flat surface too...not hard..but ya..
Or search..how people released the stuck power buttons here..

Greetings fellow geeks.
i have a problem with this i9500..
it was working fine, suddenly it resets.
it keeps resetting every 4 seconds.
won't let me go to recovery.
i can go to download mode. but it won't respond to volume button, and resets after 4 seconds.
i have a custom ram on it.
if i place a battery back in, it will power on and keeps resetting every 4 second.
what should i do?
Maybe your power button stuck in? But if you can enter download mode then not I guess. You can always flash original firmware if you haven't necessary data on it.

Ok sorry my friend, read that you can use download mode well. I think there is something with your power button. Did you drop your phone? It shouldn't reset every time in every state, that looks like hardware failure. You can easly open your phone with little screwdrivers, but you will lose your warranty. If your power button is broken you can always order new ones from China, I did it with $1,3 (power and volume).

TNX mate.
if i may say something, the button isn't stuck.. it's pretty clicky and sounds like working fine. is it possible the cause is coming from something else?

No it's your power button for sure.
I had that issue with my S3 LTE. It is indeed the power button since it does exactly the same that my did, try to use some alcohol in a swab and pass on the button (let it penetrate the button area, next click several times to try to clean the button from inside).
Good luck.

I have the same problem with my i9505, I always fix it like this:
1) remove the battery
2) let the phone rest w/o the battery for min. 10min
3) put the battery in and try to go in recovery
4) if you can wipe cache and try to turn it on
If the problem happens again:
1) remove battery
2) short the pins like this x/-/x/- , then x/x/-/- and then -/-/x/x (x is the connected pin) with something that conducts electricity like a metalic ring or high resistor or s/t
3) do step 3) from the previous one
(Anyways what you do is that you drain the capacitors in the phone, and on the power button, that capacitor is the main problem)
If that doesn't help, then try to leave it w/o the battery overnight
EDIT: well that is not a permanent fix, the fix is probably that you need a new power button, or in the worst case a new phone
I only use my S4 to listen to Spotify and Podcast, no other apps are present. I use it until I the replacement Headphone thingy comes for my Nexus 5x.
It's my old phone and it worked great until yesterday when my screen went completely pink and then my phone restarted. Now it's stuck on the first logo screen.
Not the Samsung animated logo screen, but the very first completely white text Samsung Galaxy S4 logo, I can't post pictures.
I am using a Cyanogenmod Rom because of the memory leak bug on stock rom.
I can't boot to recovery because it just boots for few seconds, then shuts off, vibrates 2 times and goes back into the boot screen where it's stuck.
The vibration thing happens everytime I try to boot the phone. The logo comes up, it shuts down, vibrates twice and then it gets stuck on the logo indefinitely.
I can boot to Download Mode and I can't boot to Safe Mode.
Any ideas what I could do? I really want to listen to stuff again.
Could be a power button issue. Open the phone, clean the power button contacts with a bit of pure alcohol, quickly press and release the power button several times in a row using a bit more pressure than usual, reassemble the phone, and see if it works.

It's still stuck the same way.
When I got to the Recovery Screen once, the screen turned yellow and phone restarted.
The power button may need to be replaced. Do you have a multimeter to test the connections?
@audit13: I've got a feeling the power button isn't his issue. On a properly working S4 the screen wouldn't flash a particular color before rebooting. Given that this happened to him suddenly, I think he has an issue with the SoC itself.

I have a almost dead S4 i9515 model here, it stopped working.
Here at home I plugged it in and it vibrated continue and nothing more.
Tried a couple of times to go to recovery (unrooted, so the standard recovery) and one time I got a Samsung logo with something blue in the top left side of the screen and nothing else.
Cleaned the power button and started the phone and got the Samsung boot logo, but it got stuck in the logo loop.
How can I check the power button with a multimeter? Is there a trick to get to the connectors?
You need to remove the back frame to access the power button connectors. There should be there of them. Without the power button pressed, touch the probe across the outer two and see if there is any current being passed.

Will try it this weekend, if it is the button I will just take it out, and try it that way till I get a new button.
Thanks for the tip!
Well, the button was not the problem, see next post
While starting it won't pass the Samsung logo boot,
while starting via recovery (power, home vol-up) I still won't pass the Samsung logo screen, but now with the message in the top left screen 'Recovery Booting...'
It's dead I believe, the power button is okay, but after a few difficult boots, it wouldn't pass the Samsung logo.
But now it doesn't respond at all anymore.
Is there a way to access this phone?
Via adb or Odin? I don't think so, if the phone doesn't startup I can't do anything...?
It is bye S4 I guess...
I am blocked here too with a GT-I9506, and can't fin anything, so yeah, i guess it's dead, mine too
Time for something new...
Anyone managed to revive his I9506? I have similar problem, if you can guys look into it and tell me that you have tried this already:

I think it will be the best way. It's third day of flashing stock firmware from 4.3 to 5.0.1 NEE an TPL. There ware two times that phone actually booted to recovery and green android appeared. But then phone rebooted and still can't get up.
