Phone doesn't boot anymore

My phone doesn't boot anymore, and when I try to turn it on nothing happens, I've tried to put it in download mode but that doesn't seem to work for me either. My phone is Samsung Galaxy Ace 2.3.5 and it's running stock firmware. Phone is succesfully rooted for one month, yesterday I put the file for a custom firmware on the sd card, but when I tried to reboot in CWM 5 the screen didn't show up anymore. One thing you should know is that i've been outside (it's freezing) but at the phone shop they said it couldn't be a prob. in the battery.
Is there a possibility for me to turn on the screen again or, with odin, flash the original software to make it work again.
I'm a bit of a noob in flashing and that kind of stuff.

Yes, I did. So this caused the bricking of my phone? So i'll just have to bring it to a samsung service point and hope the warranty is still valid.

YES root manager KILLS GALAXY ACE. U shouldve read other threads first -_- and anyway if your phone is rooted warranty is voided

try this
1.pull out your battery, sim card,micro sd care
2.set files in odin
3.connect phone to pc (still without battery)
4.hold power+vol down+home button
5.while holding put your battery (hold till u dont see triangle )
6.start odin flash
hope this helped u

Boot issue
even i have the same boot issue by rom manager so i tried this
1.pull out your battery, sim card,micro sd care
2.set files in odin
3.connect phone to pc (still without battery)
4.hold power+vol down+home button
5.while holding put your battery (hold till u dont see triangle )
6.start odin flash
bt 5th step i am not able 2 do it, it dosent show anything no triangle nothing,
no light of rays are shown the screen.
plzhelp for above & any other way for this problem.

have you try to reflash it via odin?

Nothing will work.....
You have to go to service center (if you have warranty)
Give them any excuse (did a factory reset and then phone didn't start )
They will never notice that your phone was rooted
They will change the motherboard and give you back
Next time think before you do something....

k - going 2 service center because its just 6 months past phone - with that excuse lets see what happens.

Hello. I am having this problem too, but pressing Vol Up + HOME + Power On, ODIn detects the phone, but when I start the process it stay in "<1> setup connection..."
What can I do?

Your Ace is officially now a 113g paperweight. You could only fix it by sending to service center. Usb jig might work for some cases

Installing doesn't make anything, but if you try to use it you will brick you phone.

Already got mine back from the service centre and it's working perfectly!

You have to try the software smartflash, with that you will return to the stock rom! Are you sure that you can not get into Recovery? In recovery you enter by pressing the power button and volume -!!

i have this, it keeps going LG. off on LG. off on?
just take out battery. put battery in. while pressing POWER + VOL DOWN.
it will boot into CWM. well should. Only way i got out of it. or i would have rage thrown fone at wall.

I have done that but doesnt help..... I did install smart flash and it says flash successfull but still gets stuck at LG Logo..... This is some weard ****.... plz help

i had another problem ontop of this. (bad baseband and ril) meaning the battery was like charging then saying 98% then saying 3% then no wifi no sdcard(ext) etc. i was like NOOOOOOOOOOO... battery draining super fast. phone heating up. then i emergency try to re flash. (have no access to put files on sd card) re flashed the only zip on the sd card (lucky cm9) which has aroma launcher, enable me to do a FULL WIPE. then once into CM9 (after it freezes on boot screen (animation) for like 2 minutes. furioiusly pressing buttons wondering if batt is going flat, get into menu. hold power force reboot into recovery mode. (sometimes its really annoying to get into recovery cause hold to long reset/reload no recovery. sometimes easier to hold power in boot into recovery via PHONE CM9 loaded.
i figured out it was the kernel was making my baseband read as UNKNOWN even tho it could tell me the version. ha. only fix was to do a full wipe.
the problem you probably have is. NO WAY TO PUT ANY OTHER ROM/STOCK onto SD CARD cause you have no other device with USB MASS STORAGE SD CARD???
if you can do that, then your ok.
if you cant then you need to go into cwm.
do a restore. if you have a backup. if the backup is ext3 and you have used ex4 roms like CM7/9 then the recovery will fail. and you will still be bad...
try doing in CWM recovery (full wipe/reset/cache/dav etc) ? silly question im sure you would have tried everything.
hmm. the only solution is to get another ROM (ext4) unless u can get backtoext3.zip.
you need the files on the SD CARD.. then you should be ok . right?

Try booting into recovery and wiping the dalvik cache and the other caches maybe?

HELP!!!! Stuck on Boot Screen!!!!

HELP!!!
Im stuck on boot logo and I cannot flash anything on PC Odin. And I cannot access Recovery Mode (Neither CWM or system recovery). I can only go into Download Mode.
I was on CheckRom NoteHD and I used the kitchen app to download franco kernel and one of the mods (Use camera flash below 15% to be precise) and as soon as I installed, it didn't let me boot back into Checkrom!!! And Now im stuck on boot logo no matter how hard I try. I did try flashing the wipe ROM (Pre-rooted Open Europe 2.3.6 LC1), I also tried flashing the CF-Root file but still no luck. PC Odin says failed in between the process!!
Please Help me guys.. I don't know what really went wrong as I have installed stuff from the KitchenPro App before.
What can I do now?
Thanks

First this:Turn off the device and pull the battery, wait for 30 seconds and try to get in recovery mode, if that works reflash CheckRom. If that doesn`t work pull the battery again and get in downloadmode and connect to the pc and see if Odin recognizes the phone. If it does flash any stock rom.

I tried the exact same thing you mentioned and no, it doesn't go into recovery mode. and yes, it does go into download mode but it fails to flash. I tried 2-3 different firmware versions of 2.3.6, 4.0.3 and I'm pretty sure the downloaded files aren't corrupt!! I don't know what to do...
The only thing working is getting to download mode but then thats no point since I can't flash any ROM.

There are threads about reviving recovery i think on xda, haven`t needed them so far but look around and you will find them. If you can`t restore recovery or downloadmode then it`s off to the shop i guess
Does Odin recognize your phone, what exactly goes wrong when flashing with Odin?

"Battery Too Low, Can't Download"
Now there's another problem.
Not only I Can't flash anything, I can't even get to Download Mode because the battery is low.
When I press the Vol Down + Power + Home key, I get "Low Battery, Can't Download" in red font.
I left my phone on charge through the AC port and I had no idea it wouldn't charge. The only thing was that my phone was exteremly hot but still with zero battery. I even tried plugging the phone through the USB cable but still no luck.
I removed battery for few minutes upto 30 mins and put it back in and plugged in the charger but all I see is the empty battery symbol keeps flashing every 5 seconds.
Is there any way I can charge my battery and get back to download mode so I could try flashing the stock kernel to get past the boot screen? I even tried plugging in the USB jig that I used with my SGSII previously, but it was of no use as well.
Please Help!!!

your only option is to use a universal charger external, or borrow another note to put your battery in.
once your battery is full you can carry on the previous steps
good luck

i will probably take it to best buy because i dunt know anyone that owns a note.. only I'm the cool one
hopefully i can charge my battery at best buy and then go on with the process!!

Hey,
I managed to buy an external charger and I was able to go to Download Mode again.
After that I tried to flash stock kernel (stockKernelXXLA4.tar) And Odin said "Pass".
After that I was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Logo again.
I'm not sure what to do now!!
Please help.
Is there anything else that I could flash?
Even though I flashed a stock kernel, I still see a yellow exclamation mark..
PLEASE HELP, I NEED MY NOTE TO COME BACK TO LIFE!

Sorted this mess out!!!
I flashed "N7000JPLPD_N7000OJPLP7_N7000XXLPT_HOME.tar" And the phone now works!!!
Stock kernels didn't do the work for me, but the official ICS release did.
Thanks to all that contributed in the thread.

is the new release can do ?
i'm using the LPT / LQ2, and the flashing process very long like stuck in firmware upgrade process. The bar just like never move for half our alrd.

Galaxy S I9000 no Power - Indian Model

Hi all,
I feel so stupid of myself for messing up with the phone..
Have an Indian version of Samsung Galaxy S I9000 with Customer ROM: Cyanogen mod 7 (2.3.7 Gingerbread) which was functioning perfectly fine.
I went into CWM recovery and chose the option reboot recovery just to see what it is...after which it kept booting up to the recovery screen and would not load the OS..
I saw a few threads on Google and XDA, downloaded the pit file from samfirmware website and installed it using odin under PDA post which the phone does not power on at all...
I know for a fact that the battery had 80% still remaining - Even if i plug the charger it still does not power on..
I'ts sooo irritating and i'm requiring your help - Please help me with this...

remove battery and reinsert battery,
since you only flashed Pit and NO ROM/Modem/kernel or did you flash anything else?? Phone would most likely not start
Try for download mode ( volumedown+home+power) and connect to ODIN, this time flash all, you can use rescue kit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29331775&postcount=1 or complete firmware meant for India from samfirmware

[Q] [Dead] Totally dead phone

Hi.
Today, after flashing a cwm recovery, I install the carbon rom 4.4.2 (and gapps) through the recovery, and everything has going fine, so i reboot the phone and... nothing. Absolutely nothing. The phone is always power off and it won't turn on. I tried to enter in download mode, recovery, change battery but neither is happening. What can I do now? Dump in the trash?
Thanks a lot!

One solution would probably be a "USB-JIG"
next time use TWRP recovery as novafusion suggests

Just return it to your seller. The contract of sales lies with the seller, not for you to send it to the manufacturer. I fully drained the battery of my bricked S3 mini before sending it back to Amazon (my seller) and they never found out it was rooted

I got the USB Jig; I remove the battery for 20 second and put in again, insert the usb jig... nothing again.
Well, i think I can dump it ._.

Hey bro ! Try this. Remove your battery and hold on volume down button. While holding button connect your phone to PC via phone. It must boot in download mode. I hope it will work, good luck
