My Galaxy S turns off randomly. It wont turn on until I remove the battery and put it back. It is running Android 2.2.1. Has this happened to anyone of you? Is there a solution for this?
Happening to me as well... Froyo Update screwed my phone, Planning to flash a custom ROM now... Lets hope that solves some issues...
Are you using Launcher Pro ?
It was causing the same thing to me on my i9003

I had done that a few days ago. The problem had stopped, but then started today again.
Are you running stock ROM? If yes I'd try to replace the phone.

Month old = back to service centre .
Flash rom = no warranty and possible bricked phone .

I'll flash a ROM and see if it solves the problem. If it still stays, I'll flash the factory ROM and take it to the service centre.

haha if it's me, I would not even try to flash a custom ROM. If everything is stock and it acted that way, obviously it is problematic. Send it back
I flashed Gingerbread. Problem solved. Its not happening anymore.
Well, I had exactly the same problem when I got the phone originally. I actually called my provider and got an RMA. However I decided to try and install a custom ROM and haven't looked back since.
I started with Darky's ROM and all those problems disappeared. If I were Samsung, I'd be giving Darky a job very fast. Lol!

my phone for some reason i turned it on and the phone app wasnt there so i cant dialer a number to call.I am running on DC 2.09.1 is there anything i can do?? If not could unroot my phone and take the davilk-cache and they not know my phone was rooting,rommed, partitioned, or overclocked??
damage rom is pretty outdated. try to flash a different current rom. taking the phone back because of a faulty custom rom is stupid.

do a full wipe before you flash a new rom.

I flashed via CWM MUI v.3 cuz the v.4 needed v3 due a bug but it hang on flashing boot.IMG. so i had to took out battery. Since then no charging / detection / download mode by buttons. Possible Ultimate brick?
Can access recovery mode?
Thanks

Dr. Ketan,
Black screen no detection no recovery
First make sure your battery is not completely empty. Try to charge with external charger or manage for other battery
Still nothing then manage for JIG as last option
Dr. KEtan,
I bricked the note with 95% then removed battery to prevent drain while briked. Will try JIG tonight., Will let u know

What do you think it is related with brick? Is it your fault of kernel or ROM fault. It is really annoying situation... Im sorry for your loss man...
Im not really an expert on android, but i would consider myself an advanced user so correct me if im wrong....
Couldnt it be, that the boot.img from the rom got corrupted somehow and thats the reason why it hanged while flashing it? Coz as of how i understood what the boot.img is used for, it would explain why u cant boot in recovery/dl-mode. Simply coz there is no bootloader on ur phone. Just an idea...

Well, im not a pro too to understand that since CWM erased bootloader and did not replaced it with the other version. How about SSC? Will they notice since my counter was not reset?

I have warned in hydracore thread that CWM 6.0.1.2 caused me and another user from a different thread to softbrick.
I got bashed by the fanatics in return.
Sorry to hear about your incident.

@jeroen180 send it in, they wont notice, just tell them ur phone got slow sow u did a factory reset and now it refuses to boot send my sgs in that way, before the jig was know, and my gf sent her sgs plus in abot 2 weeks ago with the same story

Yeah, I agree, if you tell them you just had to do a factory reset because it got really slow and laggy than they shouldn't have a problem. They wouldn't bill you either unless they had prior authorization.

First off before you start quoting other threads in other fourms, take a minute to get your facts in order.. Miui for the note has not been released to the public as of this date because it has the possibility to brick you device as it has the unsafe Samsung kernel (yes the same kernel as your stock note ), so if your running Miui on your note than your running a leaked version (then in that case you should know the risk involved) that is either running the stock kernel or it has one of the hydracore versions as it is the only option miui has at the moment unless your on one of the cm versions. So not defending either the rom/kernel he was trying to flash or what he was coming from as he really doesn't state either .. it would help if he provided such information. Sorry to the owner but before you get your device JTAGGED you may want to check with a samasung service center because the JTAGGED will void your warranty..

No ,CWM will not erase or even touch the bootloaders ,only PC ODIN can do that ,boot.img refers to the kernel ,I've had a corrupted boot.img flash once ,easily solved via PC ODIN ,the phone would start up and show the logo but nothing more if that happens .I doubt that's the case here but you could try a blind flash in PC odin and see if that works .

How you explain the phone stays black screen after hanging in CWM with boot.img? U suggest my board broke by accident? Someone can explain?
Could it be,
that,,,, i forgot to reboot after flashing the Hydrakernel... and eMMC bricked the bootloader perhaps? since the bootloader is stored on the chip as well?
Guys i have a big problem. Every time i turn of my phone or try to put it on download mode or recovery mode it stucks in black screen and dont responding like it's been bricked. But when i remove the battery for 2 min and place it again it's opening normaly. Im in stock filmware and just rooted. Can u tell me why this is happening? Maybe i have to flash the official filmware again or somethink?

Are you on stock kernel? If so then flash some safe kernel and try full wipe, if that too doesn't help, then flash stock firmware using pc odin.
I am assuming you are on ICS, as you didn't provide any info. You should have mentioned the method used for root and everything.

Now i cant even get to download mode to use odin to flash GB rom. I tried flashing abyss kernel using srock ICS recovery and that's the main reason for current situation i think. Any help?

Take it to a samsung service center and ask them to reset the phone. Tell them its too slow after the latest update using kies. If there is a problem with the motherboard they will report back and replace under warranty.
Else they will install the OS completely new and you can start from scratch to root and install other custom roms.
Try using USB jig to go to download mode, try it first. Jig is not expensive.

No it's not bricked. Yes you lose your warranty, but you can unroot your Note. Don't warry Note is so good phone, that you don't need warranty

Then if it's not bricked why i need to remove the battery for 1 hour and wait an other 2 hours to finally open my phone after a simple turn off? Thats why i want the warranty so i can take the phone to samsung and fix this issue. And im afraid to unroot it cause when ever i try to put my phone on recovery mode its stucks and take for ever to open againm\
Hello, good morning, I apologize for the Google translation XD, I have a N700 which only works well with android 2.3.6, when I install the official 4.0.1 or 4.1.2 works only for a moment and then locks , the screen freezes, forcing me to remove the battery, anyone has any idea that can be? those same files with other N700 update without problems, this device might have a hardware problem.
Good evening..how do you install it? using PC ODIN?

yes , every time I did it with odin, this device only gave me problems, update and downgrade several times and still the same problem
I'm too, excactly in the same case! But right now, when I come back in 2.3.6, the phones do the same thing, freeze and reboot all day, when calling, when in menu, when playing, etc...

if your rooted.. try to back up your apps and data with titanium back up (if not rooted just redownload all your apps)
try factory reset under 2.3.6..
then flash with 4.1.2.. see the difference..
do not do reset with 4.0.4 firmware.. too risky.. might cause your phone in a brick!!

try factory reset.. see if there will be improvement..
When I come back on 2.3.6, I do in this order:
Factory reset
Flash on Odin the Firmware
Boot the phone
And do another Factory reset
But now, the problem don't desappear

same thing happens to me, and not to do, because it only works relatively well with 2.3.6? hard reset when 2.3.6 starts very slow for a while but not frozen as when in 4.1 or 4.0 :crying:

Well I have the feeling you might have flashed something not correctly. But I'm not sure what you could have done to get the phone into this state.
If you're running stock try a factory reset. If your on a ROM update it or use another.
Do you have this problem with all ROMs?
