Hi everybody
I have a problem with my Galaxy S5 (no custom rom, official)
I normally used my phone, I locked it. But, after about 10 mins I tried to unlock my phone, but nothing happens
I tried to reboot, nothing happens. I tried take out and put the battery - nothing happens. So I searched on Google and tried some keys combinations, but nothing happens. My phone has about 80% battery. I tried to charge it in the charger, but nothing is happening (black screen, no notiffication light). Also I tried to put off my SIM and SD Card, but nothing happens
Do you have some skills in it? Can you help me?
Few days ago, I faced the same problem..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2853472
Then I'd to take it to the Samsumg store.. And they return it back in 2 days and said me it was a software problem..
I wanted to do a recovery reset, but i can't boot my phone anymore, also the Kies doesn't see anything, so. Did you really think that is a software problem? Because my phone won't vibrate at boot. So maybe it can be a hardware prob :/
EDIT: Phone started blinking red light... (nottiffication), I tried to charge it, but nothing...
Mate as mentioned early, same problem I faced..
It'll be better, if you return it to Samsung customer care..
You seem to be saying that the problem occurred unexpectedly. So presumably this isn't subsequent to a flash error, newly installed app or a trauma (dropping the phone, etc).
First ensure that your battery is charged, plug in the phone to a charger as well and try turning it on. If at all possible, borrow a battery from a friend's S5 or go to a store and borrow a battery for 30 seconds to confirm that the battery isn't the issue.
If the problem persists, then remove the cable and battery. Then put the battery back into the phone and press and continue to hold in this order, the volume down key, then menu key, then power key. Hold all three until the screen powers up (about 5 seconds). If this doesn't work.. the most likely problem is a damaged power key - try pressing hard or "wiggling" it to see if that makes a difference.
If you still can't start the phone, then see if a local cellular repair shop has a "jtag jig" that you can borrow. Or you can buy one on Ebay for a few dollars. When this jig is plugged into the USB socket, the phone should automatically restart.
If all of the above fails (which is unlikely), you would seem to have a hardware problem or unknown origin. Which would be very unusual. If your phone is under warranty, make a claim. Otherwise get an estimate to repair it.
.
If I hold all 4 buttons at the same time and connect the phone to PC, PC recognises the phone for a few seconds. Well, maybe not recognises, I cant see it, but it plays the same sound as if connected flash drive to pc. However, everytime it disconnects within a few seconds...
I´m in the same case, but I was flashing the Galaxy S5 with the four files ROM and the pit file using Odin3.09. All the process ended well, but after rebooting there apeared one Screen sayin something like "Some files at this phone are encripted and there can´t be modified......." so I did a manual reboot and take off USB cable and from this moment the phone don´t do anything but giving a sound when I plug USB to computer cable and I can see new COM --> Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008, and there repeat a loop.
I´m still looking for a solution, but it gives me that there is time to change phone.
Possible Fix
This thread is old but idk if this was ever solved, so in case anyone else ever has an issue like this. My Gf is still rocking this phone so i've had a little experience with it. The phone wont turn on or charge. I got it to work by sticking a flat head screw driver and prying it fairly hard against the bottom of the battery (the side closest to the charge port) and forcing the battery harder against the metal contacts. While pushing the battery I turn on the phone and it starts right up and continues to run even after letting the pressure off. I've noticed this happens every few times i take the battery out, but this method has never failed for me turning the phone back on. Hope someone finds this helpful.

weird, youd think that bending the tabs out to force contact with the battery better would do the same trick fwif
Hi Everyone! I have a galaxy note 3 SM N9005 32GB. I've started facing a very weird problem recently that I cannot find described anywhere in quite the way I'm experiencing it.. My note 3 powered off by itself after running out of charge last night. Ever since then, the only thing that happens when I plug it in to charge is that the screen stays black and the phone only vibrates once. No charging LED indicator, nothing on the screen at all, just a black screen like when the phone is off. In order to get it to vibrate again, I have to do a power drain before connecting it back to a charger. There's nothing on the screen at all. Can't boot into recovery or download modes and it's not detected by a computer. Have tried multiple cables (USB 3.0 and 2) and have 2 batteries which were working fine till this happened.
Any idea of what's going on? And if I can back up any data from it like contacts and messages? Thankfully, I had transferred almost every app I could to the micro SD card (128GB Sandisk) and was able to at least recover my notes from colornote, but I digress. What is going on in my phone?
Additional info - the battery is probably still charging when I plug it in. I think this because the phone and the battery warm up after being plugged in for a little while just like they used to when the phone was working.
Even more additional info - I don't know if this is relevant, but I recently upgraded to the most recent OS version available. I think It's a 5.0 or something but I can't remember exactly. Also, the front camera stopped working some time after the upgrade. And 2 days before this, 2 apps refused to update for some reason. I don't know if this could be related.
TL;DR - Note 3 N9005 ran out of charge and is now almost dead with black screen and no LED but vibrates only once after plugging in or pushing the power button. To get it to vibrate again, a power drain needs to be done. The battery is still charging because it gets warm when plugged in.
I too had the same problem but when I connected the phone it would not even vibrate like completely dead.
Maybe try these:-
1)Connect it to the pc of it detects it then recovery would be easy.
2)Connect the charger properly.
3)remove battery for like 30 minutes and try the steps 1 and 2 again.
4) If still not working go to the dealer cause I had to go to him too. ?

I bought it off of amazon, any suggestions in such a case? Besides trying to send it back, I mean. Anything or tool I can try? I don't mind if it gets technical. Need to get my app data off the internal memory.
Though mine started with a different problem than yours, since today it seems like the problem is same like yours. Phone's display is totally black, yet I can go to download mode (cause phone is detected by Odin), I flashed the latest stock ROM of UK too, but now there is no change anyway. I want to be practical and think that this is a display problem, if not I will be more than happy. I have to send the phone to a local technician I know, lets see.
The only think I believe you can do is wait, for maybe 6-7 hours or so, with the battery detached, and then insert it back and see whether its booting with display on or not, if not its more likely a hardware issue, display possibly.
I have been unable to boot up my letv 1s device, I have tried everything listed on this forum and other forum to boot up my letv device. Including removing the battery and reconnect them back again.
Recently, I tried to repair it to local phone repair shop, they told me it needs a battery replacement. I bought the battery from aliexpress and replaced them, but it still doesnt boot up.
The repair shop gave up and gave me back the phone and told me the EMMC is weak (I'm not sure about this).
I disassembly the phones and try to figure out the problem, I am guessing the problem might be with the charging board, I am posting the video here hoping someone pro could help me solve the problem. I'm guessing its the charging board because everytime I connect the device to the PC, it kept reconnecting when I tried to FLash a new ROM.
Here are the video of the board kept reconnecting when I tried to connect them to PC

I really hope someone with more experience could give me more insight about this, thanks.
PS: Please dont ask me to charge the phone again with original adapter and cable, because thats the first thing I tried and I charge it for more than 24 hours already (I even tried to buy a new adapter and usb type-c cable). Oh and I tried connecting to PC with the battery connected also, and it kept reconnecting.
Hi, I also have same problem, but still no solution.
Hi @casper2201 , @softkans and any one with the same issue,
I too had the same issue. It started with the charging rate becoming too slow (1% increment in 25 minutes of charging). I switched off the phone and left to charge for around 35 hours straight and came to find it 79% charged. Then I tried flashing the LOS14 after LOS13 ROMs but in vain. I also fiddled with the Kernel Adiutor, still no help. The charge won't increase when the phone is on so I left it to discharge until it switched off. Then the main issue showed up with red light always on when charging and blank screen.
I also posted about it here, but no one replied. Then I took a leap of faith and went to a local repair shop. He confirmed that it was a hardware problem and the charging module needs to be replaced. Just now I am coming from the shop itself after picking up my phone. Its working fine till now *fingers crossed*. He charged me ₹1300 ($20) which is a little high for the service but it doesn't matter as he was the only one ready to open it as there was the risk of cracking the screen.
So, summing it up, if you have the same problem as that of mine then you need to replace your charging module and I think it will be fine.
Charging module replaced.
Current condition of phone.
The rubber bands will help the adhesive strengthen.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Yesterday when I was done with setting up my phone, I put it to charge and the same issue has come again. Its not charging and the "Red light of Death" is back. Today I'm going to the repair shop again and see what he can do now.
I think this is the end and there is no point throwing away more money on the device anymore.

Sir same thing happened with me....phone is not charging red light alert and display blank...please suggest me what can I do
I want my data back from that and its not starting my data is really very important I can't loose that
Help me and tell me what can i do so that my data will not loose and my phone starts
Remove display and disconnect battery. If it won't be alive again that's probably power management unit problem and you won't fix that way.
Hi! Similar problems have been posted on the forum before, but none of the solutions worked for me.
Stock Mi A1 with vanilla Oreo (latest official patch), everything stock & vanilla, no hacking, no rooting, no modifications etc whatsoever. All apps installed through google store, nothing fancy.
In short: put my phone into airplane mode about a week ago (battery at 90%), then a few hours into the flight the phone blacked out. Won't react to power button, power+volume up, power+volume down, all buttons, no buttons, any combination of buttons for any length of time. Phone was in my pocket, no physical impact or anything, just "died".
There are 2 signs of life:
- If i plug it to charge the notification LED blinks about 1 / sec
- If I connect it to a computer, it recognizes it as Qualcomm 9008 blabla device.
What I have tried so far and didn't work:
- All imaginable button combinations: no reaction
- Fully charging phone: doesn't help
- Letting battery deplete: doesn't help
- Disassembled the phone, disconnected the battery, put it in charger, reconnected the battery: this fixed the issue for some, didn't work for me.
I GUESS that since the computer recognizes it I could try to "flash" it or whatever, although 1) there are a lot of negative posts about it 2) I have no idea how to do it (which exact ROM, using which exact tool, etc).
I wouldn't mind not losing the data on the phone though, if that is an option: I was about to back up my photos on the flight, but it died before I could have done it.
There is no official Xiaomi support / service where I live, bought the phone while visiting a country which sold it.
Any suggestions?
Small update.
- adb doesn't see the device.
- Miflash sees the device, but dies at "ping via firehose" stage.
-A1 low level backup tool doesn't see the device.
After 2 weeks of googling I have found around 50 forum threads around The Internet with similar issues, but no solution as of yet. Sounds promising!
I had this problem 2 hours ago and fixed with the Disconnect battery, connect charger, reconnect battery (while charger is still connected just to clarify). you tried this fix like this? reconnecting battery while charger is still connected?
Maybe try getting a different battery and connect it, and/or maybe let the battery discharge itself.

Thanks for the replies fellas. I have tried this before. Now I have tried this again just to be sure. Did it multiple times. Disconnect battery, connect charger, reconnect battery. It doesn't alter the phone's state in any way. Doesn't react to buttons, flashes led on charger, shows up as qualcomm 9008 device on PC, but doesn't let me flash anything. Sad.
Qualcomm 9008 is sigh of faulty emmc chip. Bad soldering i guess. Take the device to the service center. My 1 cent op. Regards
Its very simple the solution. The problem is the cable. Try to change the cable, charging the phone and turn it on. I my case works

Have you had any progress? I'm having similar issues with my mi mix 2s.
The answer is to replace the battery. I have two dead batteries for my Mi A1. Both batteries were left in the drawer for several months and upon connecting them to my Mi A1 they showed the dreaded blinking light. After trying to fix this for a day I gave up. I disconnected the battery, the phone booted up right away. Bought a new battery and everything is working again. Hope this helps!
I too had numerous kind of hard bricks with my previous smartphones.
Here are the links that will save your life:

Try the ones that you think fit the most.
I had the same issue just today
removed the battery connector and connected it back without touch any other component
phones working fine now
its bricked and get into edl mode just try to flash with MiFlash tool i have faced this problem some time ago when i flashed an ota with twrp recovery then my phone went dead and when i connect it to pc led blinks and phone recognise in ports as "diagnostic port 9008d" something like that then i install the drivers and flash stock pie rom with MiFlash tool but after successful flashing phone wont boot but after pressing power button for 10 to 15 second phone starts. i have unlocked bootloader so it works for me but i'm not sure it works on locked device try it or use QFIL flash tool from QPST
This happened to me but all i did was charge the phone the whole time.
My Xiaomi A1 had the same issue, I think I have tried all available solution but unfortunately mine still dead, and when I connect the charger it blink.
I guess the ultimate solution is to throw it to a recycle bin.
Last night I've put my Mi 9t to charge and went to sleep. When I woke up, the phone was turned off.
I've tried to restart it and also pressed the volume + power button combinations to force the recovery mode - unsuccessfully.
No blinking lights, no MIUI entry, no vibration, zero response from the phone. (Is it bricked?)
I've started to research and since my computer can't find the Mi 9t (running Windows 10) the only solution seems that to disassemble it and do the EDL Mode Test Point, to acess the recovery mode and try to flash the phone.
Do you have other sugestions to try?

This is weird. Maybe it's not charged? Did you try another charger and/or cable? How can the phone get bricked overnight by doing nothing? Never heard of it.

I've tried today during all day with a different charger, no response.
It's the first time a thing like this happened to me as well. I've never flashed it before or did any major modifications. I was running MIUI 11 still.
If the battery runned out how can I revive it?
On another forum a user told me it could be the integrated circuit broken or a battery problem.

Then I really don't know. Like I've said, never encountered this before. You could try going to a repair service.
you could open backcover and charge battery directly to see if thats usb problem
You can make an EDL cable. is very easy to do and you have a lot of videos and pictures about it.
Dont worry if you have to open the phone is really really easy. With a hot air gun or a hair dryer you can do it in 2 minutes. You are going to need also a piece of radiography to separate the cover
Then the test point is really easy to do it, check some pictures in google, also you can check the usb port if it is damaged or not once the phone is opened, but of course if the phone stoped working from day to night is weird a usb faulty port
Pls don't open anything or try an trick. Just take it to a repair service so u don't make things worse
I've tried the test point and didn't work, as well
So I took it to a repair shop that accepts xiaomi. They are going to order a new battery and a battery connector (2-3 Weeks).
I'll post when I'll get more updates.
I had a lg g3 that did the same thing. Charged it over night and it didn't work the next morning, could be power surge. Ever since then I never charge my phone over night
So, I've picked it from the repair shop and they couldn't fix it. They changed the battery, the battery connector and the display. They said they don't have a solution for the phone.
My next step is to contact gearbest to see if they have a solution for me.
