Hey all,
While I was watching a video 2 days ago, the screen started to glitch and the phone shut itself down. I tried to restart it by holding [power]+[vol up]+[vol down]. I got stuck in the boot screen, then it shut down completely. I tried charging it but it didn't work. I left it for several hours and tried again, this time it started to charge the battery. I immediately tried to boot it. It booted normally but froze at the home screen, and went black again. Now, I get no response when I plug it to my computer, I can't get into download mode, and it doesn't the charge battery.
I was using the latest Havoc OS if it helps.
Any help would be appeciated.

So, I have a Samsung SM-T230NU. When I tried to power it on, it flashed for a split second the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 logo and then went blank. I figured it was out of juice, so I plugged it in and let it charge for an hour or so.
When I came back, it was flashing and going dark.
I tried a different cable. As soon as power was applied, it flashed and went dark again.
Now, the boot logo is showing for an even briefer amount of time.
I am suspecting the battery or USB port. I don't have parts readily available to swap, however.
It may be worth adding, when I plug in the device, without touching any buttons, the screen starts flashing the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 boot logo. I would guess a stuck power button, but the power button travels freely. When I unplug the tablet from the computer, the flashing stops.
Trying to boot it with power + volume up garners no response from the device.
Any ideas?
Having same issue here
Tried hard reset, no dice.
Tried opening the back to see if I can identify some loose connection, didn't see anything funny. I am not an electrician.
My sister's having the same issue with her T230NU. It still boots (it'll boot to the Samsung splash, but then it flashes off the screen in half a second; this repeats every 7 seconds), but only if it's plugged directly to the wall charger. She let it sit overnight to charge, and it's still got this issue. I'm pretty sure her battery was drained when the issue started occurring last night, but it doesn't look like the battery has charged much (if at all) since then.
Today, my wife's completely stock, unrooted, OD2, Sprint Galaxy S4 phone stopped working. It was working earlier in the day (10 minutes prior), but when she went to check the time, the screen was black and it wouldn't respond. Tried holding power button, but nothing. Battery level was at 58%. I know this because I switched her battery with mine (85%). I discovered that after a battery pull, it will show the Samsung splash screen for 2 seconds and then nothing. After pulling the battery, I tried putting it into Download mode and the Download mode screen shows for 2 seconds and then goes black. Same thing with Recovery. I have tried to let it charge, but it doesn't show the charging screen or anything. Does anyone have any ideas on: 1) What might be causing this? 2) How to fix? 3) If permanently bricked, how to get first day of school photos that are stored on phone and not on card?
for the past two years im using note4 n910g 32gb. with out facing any problem and it was also rooted. In the past week suddenly the phone got stuck and went off. i tried to power on it but nothing happened, so, i removed the battery and tried again, power came back but when to odin mode saying " could not do normal boot ". i tried several times and same thing happened. i removed the battery again and kept it for several minutes then tried again but only the black screen appeared. after several tries phone opened but few seconds later it got stuck again. so i reinstall firmware after that it was good for 2-3 hrs. so i installed a higher version but same thing happened again. same thing happens allover again. so i unrooted it but its the same. phone got so slow it wont open an app and get stuck and turn off. i tried to restart the phone but after restart it wont turn on. so help me to get my phone back. now it keeps showing odin mode sometime, black screen and sometimes startup to phone logo stuck for hrs. have to remove the battery for several time otherwise it wont power up. please help me.
Good day XDA,
My phone went on a real havoc starting yesterday when it kept on rebooting in the "Samsung Galaxy S5 powered by Android" logo. It doesn't go past it without having the phone plugged into into a power source, either USB, powerbank or wall charger. After charging it 'til it goes full, it only takes few minutes to few hours before it goes to the same cycle again - and I have to plug it in again in order to use it properly.
What could be the problem? Your immediate response is greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone!
hi , i find when i experience this issue is when play store updates theme that i have in use at time , soon as i reboot i get bootloops ...i fix mine by pressing and holding vol down menu and power for as long as it takes for bootloader then press them same keys again but release before bootloader so that your phone boots as normal hope this helps
I know this is the combination for force reboot but sadly, that doesn't help. Thanks for the idea, though.
Tried clearing caches from recovery?
Battery still good?
I think the battery might be the problem. When I tried charging it, I went back and it was on 92% then few seconds later, it jumped to 100%. I tried booting it but with no luck, so I pulled the battery and upon putting it back, it dropped to 50%. I pulled and put it back again and it went to 84%. I'm thinking it might be the battery. I cannot boot into system or TWRP, only on Odin mode but I need to save the files saved on my internal storage as it has photos I haven't backed up yet.
my S7edge, with Stock ROM, never flashed or hacked it.
was working perfectly fine.
Last software update package was a week or 2 ago.
Today, the phone suddenly froze while I'm using it, then restarted and kept rebooting automatically in an endless loop.
I tried to force it to go to recovery mood... it would go to a blue screen saying : "Installing updates" and nothing happens.
kept rebooting into safe mode or recovery/download mode until it suddenly just went totally off.
The charger wires were a bit cut lately, so it would give a broken charging lately, not sure if that caused any kind of problems to the battery or mother board.
Since then, I am not able to turn it on again in any mode.
It also doesn't show any indications when a charger is connected.
So right now it is just dead with no signs at all. non responsive to any force power ON nor to charging.
I left it for more than 5 hours now without charging, nothing changed.
Update:
So I left it overnight. In the morning, I connected the charger and indeed it drained to 0% and started being responsive to charging again.
As soon as it charged to 20% I powered it on. It loaded into recovery, giving the no command screen. Then I went on and selected system reboot.
Then it rebooted and Android started, as soon as I tried unlocking it, it froze and started again into an endless rebooting loop until it blacked out again. Now again not responsive.
I will leave it to drain again. Does anyone know what I shall do when it gets to that endless rebooting sequence. It is obvious that Android had a malfunction... not sure what as I didn't do anything new last week..
Is there a way to get it through without factory reset?
Thanks

Bro flash latest stock rom
Solved !
It was already on stock ROM.
After lots of troubleshooting, rebooting in safe mode without the SD card worked fine. I then rebooted in Recovery mode, wiped the cashe, rebooted again normally with no SD card. Then inserted the SD card after.... got a message that SD card is not supported (seems it got corrupted somehow).
Anyways, now it's fine... let's see for how long...
