[Q] No longer bootable after phone runs out of battery. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I've noticed a strange problem with my phone and I'm just wondering if anyone else has the same problem.
This has happened twice now.
When my phone runs out of battery and turns off by itself and then I immediately plug it into a charger and try to boot the phone. It will go into a boot loop at the second loading screen.
I've recovered it by flashing via Odin.
Does anyone know why this happens?
Thanks.

It happens me two times. I tried to pull out the battery but it didn't solve. At least you need to enter in recovery mode and do a wipe

[Q] Stuck on Samsung logo + previous flickering problem

Hello.
About one month ago I rooted my Galaxy Note and flashed Phliz kernel, but kept the original ROM.
A couple days ago my phone started to have some screen flickering and battery drain issues. The screen started flickering and the battery drained till 15%, when the phone completely shuts down. This happened a couple of times. I always put the phone to charge after this, and was able to power it on.
But today this happened and when I tried to power the phone on, it stucked on the Samsung logo screen. And stays there forever. I tried to restart and even do a factory reset (I dont care about my data since its everything on the cloud). The problem persists.
When I put the phone to charge the battery charging icon appears and apparently it charges normally.
I am able to enter the Recovery mode (CWM Touch) and the Download too.
What should I do? Can the problem be the battery? Maybe I should unroot it? Flash a stock kernel?

Can I follow your video step-by-step even having a custom kernel (Philz) and CWM?

I did it. I followed your step-by-step video. Everything seen to be ok. Unfortunately the same error is happening, the only difference is that it's stuck on the Nexus welcome screen (the X), not the old Samsung screen.
It kept this screen till the screen started flickering again and the phone shut down, as before.
So, I changed the recovery to the normal 6, the kernel to the CM and the ROM to the Nexus 4. None of these solve my problem. What to do now?
So... I tried to flash a stock ROM (JB XXLSZ) through Odin. I did everything according to this video ?v=nmLm2pTdxk0 from youtube.
I also changed my battery to another (non-original) that I arranged. Now the flickering stopped.
Now I'm on a bootloop (like he was at the first try), but I tried the second time and it continues on a bootloop. Also, when I go to the stock recovery, it says:
"e: Failed to mount /efs (Invalide argument)"
It appears I bricked my phone? I do not have an efs backup.
Can anyone help me?
No one? Common guys, I don't know what to do...

[Q] Phone not booting

Hi all,
I use CM12 from MacLaw in combination with TWRP 2.8.1.0 recovery for about 3 weeks now.
Yesterday the phone didn't respond properly, was very very slow and I basically couldn't use the phone. It felt like the CPU was at 100% all the time, so unlocking the phone, calling and so was nearly impossible. A reboot (battery removal) didn't solve it, also the pin code for the sim card came after a few minutes while usually this will come right after starting.
So eventually I did a factory reset from the menu as I did on other occasions just to get rid of this kind of problems.
Well, right after the Samsung s3 mini logo I get the TWRP logo and it will be stuck in there, I see it blinking every few seconds and that's it. When I connect the phone to USB I hear it connecting-disconnecting every few seconds (bing-bong, bong-bing sound).
After a while I flashed TWRP using Odin again, this didn't give any problem but it will still hang in this TWRP loop.
I found some references to this problem but no real solutions. Someone suggested to use ADB but I don't know how to do that, nor could I find a suitable guide on this.
Can anyone help me? Or is it bricked somehow?? I suspect not, download mode is still working.
Thanks for any help!

Phone stuck at boot, continuously restarts... even after flashing it several times

Hi! Couple days ago, my phone just turned off on its own. I couldn't turn it on, nor could I charge it. Nothing happened when I connect the charger. I didn't touch it for a day or two and then when I tried to turn it on, it tried to boot up, but it just vibrated shortly and only showed initial Samsung logo and then it restarted. That loop of showing only the logo and restarting then happens continuously. I can't turn off the phone using the power button, I have to pull out the battery. When I re-insert the battery, phone automatically turns on, shows the logo and then restarst again and again and again...
I have found some suggestions to try to flash the phone with custom ROM. I tried flashing CyanogenMod using Odin. Odin displays the message that everything went OK, but phone again just boots up to the Samsung logo and then restarts continuously. After that, I have tried several other ROMs using several versions of each. Same thing happens. Odin says that process went OK, but phone again won't boot.
Does anyone have any suggestions what else should I try?
Maybe try to flash all stock files via Odin?
I tried that, too, but same thing happens. Anyway, it looks like it might be some hardware problem. I took the phone to the repair shop and they also tried installing stock and custom roms, but the phone just won't start. They said it's probably some falty hardware that's causing the problem.
Try to turn it on plugged to charger.
Something similar happened to my phone so I followed this guide, then did a recovery of my back up

janota241, same thing happens when it's on charger, after Samsung logo, it turns off and then it turns on, then it turns off at Samsung logo and so on and so on...
IsReal8a, I tried that guide, but I can't access recovery mode, though I can access download mode. When I try to access recovery mode, phone just get stuck at Samsung logo for about minute or two and then it turns itself off.
I have the exact same issue as you do.
Maybe you can replace the battery, i just suggest
*sorry for my bad english

Phone memory seems to be read only

As I said in the title. The phone's memory seems to be read only.
I can access the fastboot mode of the phone and issue commands like flashing the recovery but it doesn't seem to update anything on the phone even though I get the "OKAY" message.
My phone is unlocked and until last night I was running CyanogenMod on it just fine. But now I can't flash a new recovery or access it. I have TWRP installed but everytime I try to boot into recovery the phone gets stuck on the logo screen and flashes every couple of seconds.
If I try to start my phone normally I get the cyanogenmod logo on start up (even after flashing stock) and the phone never actually boots up.
Anyone had the same problem before? If you need more details I'll reply ASAP.
My phone is the retail European XT1068 Dual Sim. Thank you in advance for any help.
Same issue here (I'm MrPowerGamerBR on Reddit), the more I read about trying to fix this issue, the more I start thinking "this phone is dead, move on..."
There isn't no fix for this, the only way to fix is replacing the logic board.

Phone keeps turning off

Guys my phone has had an issue which I was unable to solve https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/need-help-rectifying-my-phone.4320589/
But finally I have handled to fix the issue of the boot loop by flashing miui 11.
I was trying to flash AOSP image using TWRP and everyone I wanna format it start the process but my phone turns off before completing it and idea on how to solve it and what could be the fault component additionally my phone would show full charge and when disconnect the cable it will turn off, but if for example I put it on fastboot the screen will be on for hours.
Any help would be appreciated!
