The same happened to me. I then searched the net and found this wonderful site. I flashed the original rom, then got bolder and started flashing froyo roms and am now happily flashing custom roms ! I can say I enjoy my phone more now!!. Flash your phone too!!
thanks for the advice guys ... the problem that when I connect to the pc I can not turn it on and then the computer does not recognize me ... then how do I flash the rom nn me if the computer recognizes it??

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.

Any recent application installs which might have caused this?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
if i remember correctly the last thing i installed is quadrant benchmark
is it possible that something on the root/data/app got missing or uninstalled?
this is the first time i encountered this problem. , havent seen it before in devices that ive handled
It sounds a little like the cache is corrupted (can happen if it doesnt shut down cleanly).
I had similar behaviour on my galaxy note.
The first time I did a factory reset and that fixed it (remember this wipes all data).
The second time I tried formatting the cache partition first and that fixed it.
When I did those I was using CWM recovery. I cant recall the stock recovery options.
If all is the same between phone versions, to enter recovery you hold down home-power-volume_up til it boots.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
from other posts from orher devices i have read they say its cache but the problem is when i turn it on it doesnt even boot the iniitial logo (samsung galaxy s4 gt-i9505)
it doesnt show up anything. . . screen doesnt lit up so also a problem how do i go now to recovery if the screen doesnt even turn on (the phone vibrates as a respond but the LED and the Screen doesnt lit up)
i know how to enter recovery mode. . . thats the only problem (softbricked)? this phone was bought on the official day of release
I'm having the same problem... Did you find a solution?
Anyone Solve this?
Getting quite anxious about not being power it on
Alex
Was anyone able to solve this? I'm experiencing the same problem. I can switch it on after removing the battery for a long time, but I can't seem to be able to get to recovery, or reboot proprely. Please help... thanks!
Do we have a fix?

having the same problem too
1. you still CAN go to the download mode even if screen is off (I flashed full stock but this did not resolve a problem)
2. I was able to turn on my phone after many attempts: (press power, after vibration release) - I did it about 30-50(maybe more) times and my phone boots up. But after rebooting it again doesnt turn on (again many attempts helps me).
3. I have observed - in my phone vibration turns on after 6s after power button is pressed, in a correctly working one - after 4s.
(sorry for my english)
Was anyone able to resolve this?
same problem here too !! but seem to have found a solution
My galaxy s4 was acting all weird one day, randomly it switched off and wont turn on but keeps on vibrating it was only 3months old I thought it had some serious hardware issues because I tried all the means to resetthe phone but nothing gave me a solution even tried another battery no effect it wont turn on even if it did turn on it would randomly shut itself up within notmorethan 15min I stay in india where i9505 is not sold so Samsung officials would not take my phone for service as they feel its different from i9500 in all means I got fed up and brought myself a new phone a 5s .
A few days before I badly wanted my galaxy so sat whole day searching the internet for fixes couldnt find one . I got angry and smashed the phone hard on the table .to my surprise it gurned on (was connected to the charger ) turns out some phones have a problem with there power button and mine was one of them
I didnt get my button fixed yet but after turning on not using the power button helps . Have been working for 4 days in a row now no problem what so ever . But if I lock my phone using the power button then it tends to get the same problem again ! So guys get your power button checked
Try to fix the button with WD40, worked for me.

when press volume +/-/power , did you take out the battery?
Hi guys , i currently have a Samsung Galaxy S4-I9505 (un-rooted) . Just a few days back , it started to shut down by itself for no reason and when i try to on it again it will get stuck in the "Samsung Galaxy S4" boot up screen and goes blank again . I have tried to restart it many times in safe mode and tried to wiping the cache but it goes blank as soon as i try to press something . Another solution i saw was to re-flash the firmware using KIES , but i can't even get it to work (no LED light when plugged in to charger or the computer ) . I did call Samsung service hotline and they think that there is a problem with the motherboard so they suggest i send it to get checked . So , any suggestion on how to fix this ? Any help would be greatly appreciated . Thanks !

Hi mate,
First thing i would do is a backup of personal data and apps
Check if any of the pushbuttons is stuck , specially the power button
Can you go to recovery , can you go to download mode?
Try first a factory reset and see if it help,if not i would reflash firmware with Odin...BUT if it is in warranty still take it to them and have it fix

Hi there , is there a way for me to do backup without turning the phone on ? since currently i can't turn my phone on .
I do not think that any buttons are stuck seems fine on the outside, but after going through some youtube videos i think there might be something stuck internally ? so maybe i will take it out and try to see if it works .
I can get to the page where it shows recovery and download mode sometimes but if i press a button to select an option it will go blank straight away .
Sadly it is not under warranty anymore , maybe i will open it up and give it a try first .
Thanks for the reply !

Thanks for the tip, but I really think I hard brick my phone, he just vibrate when the battery is on, when I try to turn him on just with the charger I get no response, my computer cannot ever reconize him. An since it's a national model there isn't much support for it on the internet (now I do regret getting him). I opened him to try force the reconization, but I don't find the force preloader mode test point and there is no way I can get a JTAG on Brazil.
TWRP Recovery Mode f*** me really hard this time.
Now if someone could help me finding the colo/kolo/whatever point on my phone I would really appreciated.

Am not much sure if ti is hard bricked since you sayed that it vibrates lets look how much characteristics of a bricked device of which it posseses so as to conmfirm that it is hard bricked.
Soft Brick - Struck inBoot loop
2. Super Brick - Stuck atflashing Factoryfs.IMG in ODIN . Also called as EMMC Bug
3. Hard Brick -Dead / Costly Paper weights
4. Dead Brick - No chargingbattery sign also - Mostly = Hard Brick; But there is a window of possibilityby a USB JIG for SamsungPhones.
5. OTA Brick - Encountereddue to updating OTA on a rooted Stock ROM
6. CM12 Brick - when CM12encountered a /data write error. Worst is ODIN Flashing Fails
7. Pixel Salad: This is a problemof the graphics unit or the screen which fails to display correctly the imageand put instead random colored pixels on some areas of the screen or the wholescreen. It’s hard to even let the other members know what you are facing sinceyour screenshots would be just clean as it would have been. This also requiresa need for hardware checking if reflashing ROM doesn't work.
Soft brick means a temporary problem, which could be fixed. Soft brick usuallyoccurs after installing custom rom(s) or incorrect installation procedure whichinstallation/manipulation of files like permission settings, erasing systemfiles that is not compatible with each phone.
SOFT BRICKED
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS TO MENTION FEW ARE
Phone struck on OEM logo.
Phone struck on a ROM logo "bootanimation"
The phone does not simply power up
or any other you can add up
HARD BRICKED
PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS TO MENTION FEW ARE
· No signs that can turn on directly
· The Charging won't work.
· Phone not detected when connected to a PC
· The LED's do not light up immediately
· No Sound / Vibrate
· Your phone completely off (Paper Weight)
Simply put it cannot be repaired using SEUS, FLASHTOOL, ODIN or even PC COMPANION.

Even if it's not hard bricked I had no idea on how bring him into life again, since the only signal of life he gives me is the vibration with the battery on.
It could make my computer detect him it would be much easier.

this may sound dumb but maybe your screen is broke i highly doubt it because of what happened but if you can feel the vibrations but not see the screen then maybe its the screen. There will probably be a way to fix it but im unsure. Its funny how you call your phone him

Ow, one year latter I don't think this will help you anymore, but just in case someone has the same question: I didn't solve the problem, I took it to the Samsung assistence and discover that the motherboard was damaged, they would have to replace it.
