Strange issue phone doesn't power on - Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

phone model is sm-g531h. Phone is powered off cant do anything with it. It doesn't power on nor can enter into recovery. but when i connect it to charger it starts showing battery icon and then disappearing battery icon. its like in a charging loop. Then connected with the charger when i Press volume up+home+power it goes into recovery. By factory resetting or wiping cache and rebooting it shows samsung logo and sometimes it goes further to setup but then it continues blinking that battery logo on and off.
Then charging port is clean there is no problem there. Should flashing the firmware would solve the problem or there is other issue like in the motherboard or something else. please guide me.

[Q] Help - Please

I'm not a noob and have tried everything I can think of - hooking my phone up to my pc via odin and adb with zero results. Tried plugging on my phone overnight, etc etc.
My problem - I was at work and took a photo with the camera app, the camera crashed, then I opened the gallery. I went to reboot my phone and nothing happens. Now when I try to power on the phone, nothing happens. I do a battery pull and then put the battery back in and it boots up for no more than 3 seconds to the Samsung logo and then turns off. If I try booting into recovery, same thing - just turns off and the same situation if I try to boot into download mode. Has anyone encountered this problem? Note that I am running a custom recovery - Philz CWM. I fear the worst; my phone is perma bricked.
edit; FIXED - Faulty power button. Power button will stay in and not pop out without prying at it.

Phone keeps restarting at recovery screen

Hi guys,
I have an issue with my phone:
Yesterday, tried to restore factory settings, since the phone was quite slow.
A second or so after I confirmed the reset, the phone turned off and wouldn't start.
I took out the battery and it was swollen.
I bought a new battery today, inserted and stated the phone.
What happens now, is that the phone boots, Samsung logo appears, then the TWRP logo appears, from this point, the phone stuck at this logo screen,
and flashes every few seconds (I can't post a video here, so I can share the link in private, if anyone can take a look).
I tried to leave the phone for about 20mins without battery at all, removed SD cards, removed SIM cards, no use.
Trying to boot to recovery or download mode gives the same result.
Tried today with an original battery of a friend's Galaxy S4 , same result.
Does anyone have an idea what I can do?
Thanks in advance for you help

Sound to me your power button is stuck/faulty. Does it reboot also when in download mode? If so, then it's your power button. Wiggle it loose or replace it.

It never gets to download (or recovery) mode...
It keeps flashing at the logo of the TWRP
Trying to boot to download or recovery modes, gives the same results
I don't think it's the power button. Otherwise it would turn off if it is stuck or not turn on at all if it's faulty.
Still, I wouldn't exclude it.
The screen flashing might related to a GPU problem. I don't think it is a problem you can fix yourself.

Yureka Plus - Not booting into recovery - Power button stuck?

It was working fine with RR Rom. One fine day didn't restart, stuck at logo. Tried to get into recovery, it failed. I left it for some days. Battery was dead. So I tried to charge the phone before flashing through Fastboot.
But I face a bigger problem now. When I tried to connect the charger, it gets on and stuck at YU logo and keeps vibrating. When I keep the Volume up and put the charging, it goes into Fastboot mode. I fear the power button stuck internally?
Can anyone faced the same situation? Can anyone help?

Weird S7 Edge Problem Blue LED Black Screen

Starting from the beginning: My phone crashed restarted several times and then black screen with blue led. Then I had t wait for the battery to die because none of the home power vol, power vol keys worked. Eventually got it into recovery mode selected wipe cache restarted same problem.
Now the phone even boot into recovery. It just stays on the blue screen saying "Installing system update" . The little recycling loading icon spins a couple times then its just stuck. Resorted to losing everything and installed smart switch and did emergency restore. Flashed a few times still no joy. Took it to shops they charged it turned it on and its reset to factory. Got it running again, only for it to go into a boot loop. Curious if it was actually fixed, i booted into recovery mode same issue and now back to square one. (I did let the battery die and started it up, came to the home screen and it started rebooting again to black screen and blue LED again.)
I do intend on sending it back but I am wondering could be that the recovery partition is corrupted?

Le Pro 3 - Stuck in a bootloop recovery mode and fastboot not working.

Hi guys,
After googling it I tried booting it in recovery and fastboot mode but none of them work, when I try to boot in those 2 modes I get a screen with "recovery mode" written for 5 secs then it goes back to the normal boot screen and then turns off and starts to bootloop again the only way I could stop it from boot looping was by pressing the power button + the + and - buttons, so yeah if you guys have any idea how I could fix this or how I could recuperate my data please help, also it started bootlooping during the night while it was charging it was very hot when I took it, last thing when I try to go and charge it there is not indicator that it's charging.
Thanks in advance for your help !
much love
Mathias.
Kind of the same issue here.
Yesterday, I was using my phone while it was charging (low battery), and suddenly : freeze then power off and stuck into a bootloop.
It did it all the night until no battery, now when I plug it the charging Led is not lighting, and stuck in a bootloop.
Tried to flash TWRP vi fastboot mode : success but impossible to boot into recovery mode, as you described.
Affraid of the battery has died...
Flashed wrong orange state zip
Same to mine, my device was x651 and i flashed an orange state zip file intended for le 2 x620 without wipe and after flashing it from recovery , I rebooted the device, now its powering on and off on a dead screen and only long vibrates, how can we fix this? Please help
Not sure if this will help, but I ended up with a perpetual boot loop on the phone and wrote it off as broken and got a new one....a year later, I plugged it in to see if it would even power on so I could trade it in and VOILA, it boots up! What the hell? So my suggestion is maybe to let the battery run ALL the way down and then a long charge first.
