Hi all,
I have a LG G2 from AT&T. Had it for about 1.5 years now. No issues until now.
I was just watching some YouTube videos and the phone suddenly shut off. I tried the power button and it won't turn on.
I plugged the G2 in to a power outlet, but it was just stuck on the "LG" screen. I unplugged the cable, and now, even when I plug in the cable, the phone won't turn on.
Can someone please help me? Thanks in advance to anyone who can.
I believe it's due to the motherboard, but I'm not sure.
Really would like someone's help!
Bumping. Really need help with this.
Can you put it in download mode?
Plug in your usb cable from pc holding vol down button, if nothing happens, try at the service centre because it can be hardware related.
The phone doesn't do anything when connected to the laptop with the button held down. :/
The other morning I woke up and my phone would not turn on after being on the charger overnight on the night stand.
I removed the battery, power drained the device and still the device would not post.
So I grabbed my spare battery and tried that, still no post.
I plugged in my device and noticed the charging light was not coming on, so i tried a different adapter and yet again no change.
I disassembled the phone and swapped out the USB flex cable with a new one, still no change.
So I plugged the device into my computer and I received a battery gray battery image that flashes away almost immediately.
I unplugged the phone held the power button down and plugged the phone back in. I received the Samsung writing with the model number but the device just goes back to the grey battery and flash away,
I attempted to boot the device to recovery mode but it just loops back to the grey battery,
I had then decided to try download mode with odin and restore the stock ROM. I can get the device into download mode but no computer recognizes the device in device manager or odin.
I have removed and re-installed the battery while in download mode and any computer will still not recognize the device.
I noticed one strange thing. If i remove the USB cable from the phone while it is plugged in the phone powers off and will not turn on until it is plugged into a power source.
It is almost as if the phone does not recognize that the battery is even plugged in!
If anyone has any ideas or could possibly point me in the right direction that would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks guys in advanced if anyone can offer any information on this issue!
Also, the phone is out of warranty!
Hi! I managed to hard brick my galaxy s7 edge and i wanna see if someone here knows if its hard bricked or soft.
Got root and had renovate rom 2.0 ( n7 port) then i wiped my phone and flashed renovate 3.3 (s7 edge stock)
my phone worked fine on startup and i started to restore my old apps through gmail. i thought it would take a while so put my phone in my pocked and let it be fore about 20 minutes then when i took it up it was complete dead. i had about 67% before it died i tried everything (vol up down home all together) for at least 15+ sec. had it charge over the night ( i noticed that the phone didnt get warm or any leds shown) in the morning i tried everything again and nothing. when i connect my phone to my computer i hear the connect sound and then it disconnect a sec later. if i hold power button down and connect it ( and dont release power) my computer recognize it as onyx8890 and if i release powerbutton it disconnects. cant boot it in any way whatsoever. so what do you think? its only a week old thats the worst part of it!
I have left it to the store I bought it from for warrantable but its still rooted and have a rom on it. well if its complete dead they cant see if its rooted so thats one good thing.
still want to hear you opinion
sorry for bad english
so, from what I understand, u cant boot into any mode, are u even able to see something on screen? (logo, boot screen, etc.) U can try JIG (it somehow make any samsung device go to download mode). otherwise idk.
Hi guys, I have the same problem with my S7 Edge.
Can anyone help?
OK. So I managed to recover my phone.
The phone was dead because of a software crash(nothing on display, no LED light, power+vol. down for reset not working) and when connected to my PC - nothing (just a connect and after 1 sec. a disconnect sound).
But if I kept the power button pressed without letting go, my PC would detect the phone as exynos8890.
I tried to keep pressing the power+vol. down while connected to PC and I realized that the combo worked because after ~7 seconds the phone would disconnect and reconnect itself (but still as exynos8890).
But I tried a different approach. While connected to the PC I tried to keep on pressing power+vol. down. And I could hear that it disconnected and reconnected. But I did not let go of the buttons. And again a connect and disconnect. And again. And after literally 5 minutes of the buttons kept pressed down without letting go and countless reconnects there was finally a change. The disconnect sound was not heard after the connect sound. At that point I stopeed pressing the buttons and when I looked at the phone I could see that the battery icon appeared. Since the phone was connected to my PC, after 1 min. the battery started charging (it was charged 31%). And after that my phone booted fine.
wow
Hi I have just bought an s7 which turned out to be a Korean G930L but I cant get any response out if it apart from the 2 bottom leds and and the blue one. No response from trying to get into recovery or download mode, basically a black screen though it does vibrate on what i think is start up. It is found by pc and Odin and charges ok, I can tell as I can see properties on pc. But no other response. Is it possible that the previous owner tried to root it using non korean rom or TWRP? Any advice on how to fix either getting TWRP on or screen to light up. I am sorry for being so vague I have pulled it apart and checked all of the connections, screen, motherboard etc but nothing. Or chuck it out or put back on eBay. I tried your idea but it only booted once in that 5 minute period so I tried without it plugged in and rebooted several times but still no screen response.
Hi all, and merry Christmas to everyone.
My S7 edge has started to cause problems with charging up, for some reason when phone is turned on, it will not recognise the USB cable. - I have tried a different cable and plug and it still does not work.
When my phone is turned off, each time I plug in the cable I get a battery with a white lightning symbol and then it just goes off nothing shows as charging . So I suspecting the USB port is OK?
I have erased Delvik cache and erased data this does not change anything.
I do however get VERY VERY slow charging when I leave my phone is download mode.
Anybody got any ideas on what to try before I end up getting back in touch with vodaphone?
Thanks all.
UPDATE :
My phone is now completely dead on 0% battery. When I try to turn on the phone nothing happens as expected with 0% battery.
If I then plug in my charger, I get the lightning symbol for 3 seconds and then it goes off. It gives it some kind of a "charge" and I can turn on my phone.
Once it boots back up, their is no indication to say my phone is on charge and the 0% stays their with a red explanation mark and then my phone turns off. back to the stage I cannot turn it on unless I replug the charger cable and then it goes back in the loop.
sounds like the battery has failed.
check your usb plug if theres any missing pins.
Have you tried using a different charger or charging from a PC USB port ?
Looks to me as if it's your charger or your battery which is faulty.
Yes, I have tried a different Plug and lead we have several in the house. too many samsungs haha.
Sounds to me the battery is faulty as well :/ . Im curious as i thought if the phone is plugged in maybe it should stay on and if i then unplug the phone it would turn off instantly?
I contacted vodaphone , i need to pop into their shop on Monday (i think their open) . they have their own repair center in store which sounds good so no need to send phone off for a repair and they give your a courtesy phone to use as well. If they cannot repair it i should be entitled to a replacement.
Worst thing about these phones when you cannot take battery out :/
Thanks Guys . Hope you all have a nice Christmas Day and get what you all ask for !
on 2nd thoughts,
Although this sounds like a battery issue, of course my phone is totally dead wont turn on. but when i plug in my phone to either, the wall or PC. it will turn on and then back off as if the battery has just died.
If i plug the phone into my PC in DOWNLOAD mode, the phone will stay on but my computer doesn't even respond as if nothing is plugged in. This tells me the problem may be more than just battery?
Just a thought.
So recently my SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 EDGE volume keys broke and now my battery just died and i can't get a new one. I want to recover my data but the only way to do that for me is to enter Download Mode. I'cant enter download mode because my phone wont start because it doesn't have a working battery, sometimes my pc recognizes it when i plug it in. Is there a way to enter Download mode without the phone buttons and without a battery, i tried Smasung 300k tool to force it to Download mode but it doesn't work. When i plug the phone to the pc the LED indicator is red meaning that is charging but i don't have a battery on it but when i try to power it on it shuts down.
PLEASE HELP!!!
