Dude, just REPLACE it!!
Hope you are on stock ROM.
If you are using custom ROM try other ROMs avail for your phone.
If its software problem it'll be solved else you need to replace your battery.

Yah! But first of all try connecting your phone to different PC. Also try using different USB chord. In case of avoiding replacing port.

What's your point? Your 7 steps are already included in the Overcome guid.

[Q] pls help boot loop and charging problem

I dropped my ideos once.
Now i m on official gb latest version
facing many problems .My mobile will get random reboots many times and i also faced charging problem that it does not get charged through usb or charger.
Is it hardware or software problem .
Anyone know the solution for this pls help thankyou
So if you cant charge it you cant turn on your phone right? Its most likely to be hardware, but you can try to find someone with a ideos x5 and put his battery in your phone and flash some rom. But wait for some more comments

The phone is used by my wife and we all know how much women like to talk on mobile phone, don't we!?
I have installed SVA ROM v.4.5 on this phone following strictly instructions on SVA's website.
The phone's battery has a life of about 1.5-2 days between chargings and my wife always or almost always put the phone on charging when the battery is under 5%.
My wife does not play any game on it.
The phone is used for endless talking, listening music, skype, yahoo, gmail and some photos.

If I were in your situation I would try the following:
1. put another battery in the phone but with the same firmware which is draining your original battery to be sure it is not a faulty battery;
2. flash another original firmware and after that install prefered apps one by one with some time between them in order to see how much of the battery it use.
Good luck!

No SIM Problem i9505

Hello I have a s4 i9505 phone and my problem is that sometimes (most of the times) doesn't seem to recognize the sim (it is inside) . Last night i installed the goldfinger ROM and it went good, i had no signal but the people could call me. This morning i tried to get rid of the signal problem too but i flashed the XXUGNE5 modem and now i don't have sim at all . My carrier is Vodafone , Spain. I tried everything , since this problem persist like a month ago when i changed my screen because it crashed. I changed too the hardware, the sim reader but no solution at all so my thoughts are that this is a software problem . Sorry 4 my bad English and thanks in advance for your help.
Edit: Sometimes i have no signal but the phone works , but after a certain time it says Sim card extracted , restart...
1. Do a full wipe in your custom recovery
2. Flash the latest stock rom.
3. If the problem is still there then it's a hardware problem.

Its not bricked.
If it's A UK device then download aUK firmware from Sam mobile and flash in odin. Then you'll be good to go.

You need to odin flash the firmware even if it takes you 10hrs. to download it because
there is no other way to get your phone working properly and running like new.
Also if your knox is tripped there is NO way to "un-trip" it, it will stay tripped regardless
of which firmware you flash.
If the firmware was UK then you need to download UK firmware from sammobile or you
can find and download it from Updato. Here is a link to "Updato":
http://updato.com/firmware-archive-select-model
It doesn't matter if you flash Marshmallow 6 or Nougat 7 firmware, that's a personal choice.
Good luck, have a great day!
ohk thanks but my question remains regarding battery, its not switiching off , should i keep it pluged into the charger while i download or even if battery dies i can plug into pc and flash firmware later, and also it was factory unlocked phone as per seller there are many versions of uk like vodafone etc etc.
can i flash any even if its 6.0

It does not matter, you can always charge the battery anytime
you like, if you cannot turn the phone off just let the battery
drain and then before odin flashing firmware charge the
phone for about an hour.
Good luck,
