Galaxy only boots on usb/adapter - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys,
I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s i9000 it won't turn on.. When it is turned off and i press the power button a short animation of a battery comes up (2sec) and then it turns off again..
When the phone is connected to the adapter or usb it boots fine and works ok also when the cable is disconnected. Problems starts over again when the phone is turned off.
Im running froyo atm flashed official with kies..flashed it.. Clean install.. Before flashing the phone had the same problem. Problem started with the notification usb connected when the cable was not connected. That notification is gone.. But problem with booting remains..
Someone have a solution or just send it in for rma...

same problem here
I'm also having the same problem. Maybe something is wrong with the sgs usb driver. I think the charging symbol should only shown up, when usb is connected. Sometimes my sgs shows usb connected, but the cable has been removed far ago....
Any ideas how to fix this?

Phone bricked itself?

I have no idea what happened. I turned my phone on, it booted to the OS no problem. Nothing was wrong until I noticed that my network said Verizon Wireless, when it should have said Rogers (I live in Canada and am using GSM). So I went to the "mobile network" tab in the settings menu, and my phone just shut off. It was at least at 80% and just shut off. I can't even turn it on now. I have no idea what happened. I can't even turn it on by pressing vol down + power. Plugging it in to the charger does nothing either. I am running the 4/7 build I think of AOKP/ICS leak on 6.16.213. Also, if I plug it in to my PC via USB, the green LED comes on but nothing else happens.
I have the same problem !
Any ideas ?
I exactly the same, when I plug my phone, only instant green led ...
Help !!!
Could an electrostatic discharge of some kind damaged the phone?
What was your battery level beforehand?

My phone did this as well tho I was only stock when it happened... it was I'm guessing a bad USB cable and charger I tried 4 which work just fine on my RAZR but do not on my d4... I finally found one the works and I only use it...

I have find my bad :
When my phone is in fastboot mode, is discharge, and I left it in this mode = no battery ...
I have find one thing : Apple Wall charger can boot the phone, but never whit PC and same USB cable ...
I have making an Factory cable (just connect the PIN5 to +5V USB) and now my phone can be run fastboot with no batery (I think the PIN5 emulate a good battery)
Thanks a lot
Now, I mus unbrick it !
My phone did this today..... No idea why, it starts to boot up and it says "Droid", and then shuts down. It was plugged into our Mac laptop overnight to charge. No idea what is going on. Only thing I can recall changing was turning on Roaming Data in the settings. I am on the current stock rom, and rooted on the Verizon network. I have to unplug it again and replug it to boot up again. I really hate this non-removable battery deal.

Is My Ace Bricked? SOLVED

So I have a S5830D, and it's been working fine for the past while. It's rooted and I have this ROM on it. It was working fine, and I haven't removed any apps or installed anything for a while, but I noticed that when I tried charging it, my phone wouldn't respond to the charger(it wouldn't show as charging). Using a new outlet, and trying to charge it from my computer via USB didn't work either, so I tried turning it off, but now I can't turn it back on. I get no response at all. No Samsung logo or anything. Is my phone bricked, or is there something wrong with the hardware?
Would this work for a 5830D, or is there something else I can try to unbrick it, if it is bricked?
EDIT:I can put it into emergency download mode, and RAM DUMP ARM9?
EDIT2: Managed to turn it back on, it seems like the battery drained, and I wasn't able to charge it through my stock charger. Had to connect it to my PC for a few minutes. However, now I can only charge through my PC, and not through the normal wall outlet charger. Any clues as to how to fix this?

I can charge Ace only when it's turned off (more inside)

Yesterday i managed to resurrect my Ace after it's been bricked for months using a usb jig. I've installed cm-7-20130608-UNOFFICIAL-cooper and everything is perfect except for the fact that i can only charge it when it's turned off. Then i simply connect the charger, battery icon appears and i can turn on the phone. It will keep chargin. But only if i turn it off first, then plug the charger. If i just plug in the charger while Ace is on, nothing will happen. The same goes with usb connection. It's not a rom issue, because i had the same problem with the old rom. I tested it before i installed the new one. IMO usb port is not damaged, because otherwise it wouldn't charge at all, would it?
Hopefully someone will come with the solution

Why don't you flash a fresh stock? You could test this trouble on it and then you could try it in Cm7 again
Do you have original Samsung charger?

[Q] USB Connection not detected - Strange charging bahavior

Well this problem drives me crazy.
My phone (i9070) doesn't make any sound when I plug it on my computer or charger and no charging indication appears either on the phone.
On computer side device appears under the storage devices.
However is seems that the power connection is working since if I restart the phone while the power plug is still connected the charging indicator appears. In addition after the restart the battery seems to reach 100% extremely soon (which is not normal at all). Unplugging the charger (or the computer) doesnt detected either by phone, the charging indicator is still active until restart.
I tried to factory reset the device and still "no juice".
I have tried 3 different cables with two computers where the device was connected few days ago without any problem.
I don't know what should I suspect.
Faulty battery? Faulty data connection on phone plug? OS based issue?
Any ideas?

What ROM and what kernel you are using?
Sent from my GT-I9070 using Tapatalk
Sorry forgot to mention these info:
Kernel
3.0.31-CoCore-EP-8.2
Updated to 8.2 after the problems I had CoCore 8.0 until the problem appeared.
ROM
LightJB v1.2
I used to work with JellyMod v4.0 until the problem appeared and I switched to LIghtJB v1.2 to test if the problem fixed but the same behavior here.
Should I replace my battery?
Is there any way to check if the USB connection gets detected by the phone hardware (a diagnostic procedure)?

Put the phone in download mode, connect to PC via USB cable and open Odin. If the phone connects, I recommend a reflash with one firmware.

Drives are already installed.
The phone is not responding on the cable when it is connected to its usb port.
Computer doesn't detect any device either.
Any ideas?

Is it charging? Bad cable? Change USB port on PC, put it in some other.
You said you have charging problems? It is not shown (in phone, procentage is not going up) or it is not charging at all?
Luckily for u it's a broken flex (cheap) it costs $10 including tools to fix it yourself on ebay
