Hello guys,
I am in a big trouble!!
I have a galaxy s4 i9500. I installed prism barebone by aliraqi and left it for chanrging and after sometime when I looked into my phone it was looping at the intro screen (i.e. the screen which shows galaxy s4 i9500 in white on a black background).
I cant even go to recovery or download mode.
When I connect my phone to charger it shows the battery logo with a bolt in it and it gets really hot and it doesnt show any charge in the battery.
Please help me ASAP.
EDIT : It was a problem with the power button.
please try this .. daring to reply you .. remove the back cover .. remove battery .. remove sim card .. remove memory card .. keep the phone in open for 40 mins ..
u can buy a universal charger to charge the battery.. then reinsert everything back.. then try to check if you are able to go to download or recovery mode .. u can also try to go to safe mode and check if you are able to charge ..

Tried it but when i try to boot into download mode, in the interface which appears before the download mode when I press volume up, nothing happens but when I press the down button it reboots and I get a loop.
I even bought a new battery and tried booting but no luck.
EDIT : FIXED!!! IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE POWER BUTTON. THANKS ANYWAYS FOR REPLYING.

when i flash a rom with odin..a min later.i saw the odin ProgressBar still not move ,so i pulled out the usb and the battery.then put the battery in the phone again,and wanted to go into the download mode to flash the rom again..but when i wanted to power on the phone.,my phone can't power on any more..try many times..it's still dead ..do anyone know what's the problem with my phone?
Take the battery out and press the download mode (three buttons) and insert the battery. This worked for me and I got the download mode back this way. Used a flat table to push the bettery in.
Good luck.
Do you get anything on screen at all or is it just black?
Try leaving the battery out of the phone for over an hour then putting it back in and see if you can go into download mode, this worked for me after I semi-bricked my phone before Christmas. Otherwise you may be able to get it into download mode with a USB jig if you are lucky

which rom were you flashing? did it contain sbl.bin and boot.bin? if they were contained, the luck is lower than the others. if it didnt contain them, it is like 99% you will rescue your phone by download mode.
my tmobile vibrant went down few hours ago ,i was rebooting clock..recov an it reboot into the open galaxy s logo an wont do anything . it wont boot back into recovery an it doesnt even show the battery charging .thats the only other screen i can get .....what have i done an plz tell me there an answer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Try plugging one end of the usb cable while holding down the volume buttons now plug in the other end of the usb cable while still holding the buttons. This should get you to download mode and subsequently you can odin back to stock.

You can try to factory reset it... Follow the following
Press Vol Up + Vol Down Key (Press in middle so that both are pressed)
Press Home Key
Now Press Power
GT I5801 logo will appear
Leave the keys and your phone will boot into recovery
Try wiping cache first and if not working factory reset it
If after this it doesnt work, Install Kies...It will install drivers
Follow the above steps except press vol down key instead of both
Phone will go into download mode.... Plug in USB and flash it
hello guys ... I then tried the key combination .. but nothing to do., or any sign of life .... other ideas ... damn it bothers me back for assistance!
Just flash your phone with new rom. For this use Odin and OPS file and rom .
Boot into download mode of gt-5800 by using vol - , power and home button all at a time. Then you can flash new firmware from Odin , use one package or other option specific to rom and your phone will start working again. Hope this helps.
Post any problem while flashing.

Did the phone hung during upgrade process or Kies hung during download process?
If phone hung during upgrade process and now you cannot boot that means your phone is hard bricked. This is because when you upgrade the phone through kies, it updates the boot loader and when phone hung during the process means bootloader is corrupted. In this scenario, you need to take the phone to service center and get hardware replaced
then I guess I'll have to bring your cell phone service ... damn ..
Grazzi guys for the help anyway .. I just know you know the developments of the case ..
hello
have you ever tried anything like flashing before? if not take it to samsung service centre and say it is not switching on.
The phone was working fine until recently it started rebooting automatically ever 2-3 hours...I didn't do anything about it and now it boot loops at startup
It's different from other problems as phone boot loops in download or recovery mode so i can't flash a new ROM or a official ROM. Phone is rooted and out of warranty so I'm not sure if i can give to the samsung service centre.
This may sound stupid but i think maybe the power button has been pushed a little deep and hence the phone reboots continously...but not sure of this...any way of removing it and inserting it back..
Or my phone is just bricked
Sorry if repost i tried searching but no results came with our phone
Flash fresh stock ROM via odin. For instructions and your firmware pack go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465800
Then root your phone and reflash your ROM, Kernel bla bla bla.
There is no possiblity that a phone will boot loop in download mode..
U sure u in download mode.??
That is power+ vol DOWN + menu button.?
** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**

yep i go in download mode and i press the up button (it takes few sconds for it to reboot). After this, screen goes black....
If i dont press any button..same thing happens...
@Uchooseme...i can't flash anything..as i cant remain in download mode...
I removed the battery and sdcard from the phone last night, and kept it that way.
In the morning when i booted the phone it stuck at "galaxy y" screen(no boot loop)[I had to press power button].
so i went in download mode and this time it worked(meaning no black screen)
then i went to recovery mode and did default wipe and cache wipe..rebooted the phone again..
while rebooting it showed something like this
"...log_files_...cant find dbRbooting\..." [...] something was wriiten but i could only glance the screen for few secs so couldn't make out what was written
-After this i thought maybe i should insert sdcard and then boot the phone.So i inserted the sdcard and booted.
-There it was again the boot loop. I didnt even press power button,the phone started as soon as battery was inserted
-The phone started and then restarted.(from galaxy y screen to black screen and back again to galaxy y..goes on like this)
-when it restarts (i.e. from galaxy y screen to black screen) i went to recovery mode but as soon i select wipe cache, it restarted again.
-Then to download mode..as soon as i tried pressing UP button...black screen(don't rember if it restarted atuo or i had to press power button but definitely the "downloading..." screen didnt appear)
I again removed the battery n sdcard (this time for 5 mins around)
-Again the phone stuck at logo screen (this time when i inserted the batery the phone didnt start automatically but i had to press power button)
-Without inserting the sdcard i went to download mode and flashed >>> S5360_DDLF2_ODDLF1_DDLF1_wipe_by_SplitFUS2 (the file i had used earlier while installing ussr i guess)
-This time it went thorugh the logo screen and the "samsung animation" came.....but the it rebooted again..went like this 3-4 times and went off
- now when i start it,it automatically goes to recovery mode and shuts off (doesnt restart)
[Only thing i can see here apart from the recovery options is ----applying Multi CSC----
Copied the default wallpaper file](in blue color and the bottom)

Hello i have been freaking out and researching this for hours. (found nothing)
What I did
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9gL_4KNs_Q
I have T-Mobile.
Now when my phone boots up it keeps shutting off. stays on for 1-5 seconds
I then did a factory reset and cleared the cache.
I can some times get it to the home screen and flip back and forth on the different screens then it shuts off. I have seen I have superuser on in the apps but don't get a lot of time to check root before it shuts off.
I do have red text on the Samsung logo screen that says "kernel is not seandroid enforced" (Spelling)
What do I do?
Safe mode also shuts off.
I can get to download mode and recovery mode
I just cant get it to stay on .
Any help would be great thanks.
Additional info
Update more info: When I factory reset. I do get an error failed to mount /preloader (no files or directory) wording might be a bit off but that's about what it says.
does it restart in recovery/download mode?
does it restart when the plug in into a charger?

I guess I should have changed the wording. Its not rebooting it just shuts off.
No It does not restart when I charge it. But it does show the battery image and charges.

me too, if it doesnt reboot while charging means possible battery issue.

Sorry for the miss communication.
Lets try this again.
I can plug the phone in and it charges while its turned off. you know the battery screen.
I can volume up, home and power For down load mode
I can volume down home and power (factory reset, cache delete so on)
I can get ODIN to connect but I cant flash the firmware I found. Maybe its the wrong firmware? Could you point me to what I need?
But when I just turn it on either charging or not it shuts it self off a few seconds later. Seems to happen after a message about auto time and date pops up. And when I say shuts down it just shuts off no like shut down screen or anything.
ok start again, please put all info so it wont be confusing:
what initiate the problem?
did you install a custom rom?
are you rooted?
what phone model are you using?
odin version?
have you tried flashing thru samsung switch? if not, try it

Update:
I just got my phone back from Samsung. On Friday they told be they didn't fix it because it was rooted and said they are mailing it back. Well now I don't have a phone so I Saturday I went and got a new s7 edge from t mobile. Its now Wednesday and I get my phone from Samsung. I open the package all bummed wondering what I am going to do with this phone. I then see the phone is in a small blue draw bag thing I thought it was cool so I open it to look at it and I see my phone light it. The sim card and tray on taped to the back of the phone but my phone is on! I then sat here looking at it waiting for it to reboot. I put my sim card. Then a screen popped up saying reboot? and I click yes . I was so mad at myself but then it restarted and everything was ok. I installed root checker and I have root access. the phone has now been on for the last hour or so. Not sure if it was something Samsung did or taking the sim card out did something.
But now I have a rooted s6 edge plus rooted and a s7 edge. and out like 600 bucks
Best solution, use Samsung's Smart Switch software (download from their site) and restore to factory ROM and kernel (official Samsung version). If it is anything software related, this will definitely fix it.
in case you dont know the steps: open smart switch, connect device (make sure its detected), got to more > emergency software recovery & initialization > Device initialization > type in your exact model name at the bottom > then serial number (make sure you type it correctly > type ok, follow instructions, and let it do its thing .
Try this and let me know how it goes. Good luck.
its kernal issue try to flash a different kernal available for edge+
