Charge your battery with """external charger""" & make sure it's working.

You can either:
Keep searching for any signs of life
Get j-tag
or go to sony.
Those are the options i see right now

Soo what have we learned?
Flash kernel then ROM.
Don't forget to full wipe before installing any ROM.
Make sure you flash the right kernel for the ROM you want.

[Q] cant turn on my galaxy ace without connecting charger

iam using galaxy ace.. now charger is
needed to switch on my mobile.. now iam
using by this method connect the charger
and switch on my phone. . when i tried
without connecting charge i cant turn on
my mobile. yesterday i insalled cwm
v5.0.0.26 so wat was the problem? how to solve this?. friends
help me please..
Wel i think CWM can't be the cause. If it could be the cause, the phone shouldn't be turned on anyway. It's weird it switches on with charger but not otherwise.
Maybe there is a problem with the battery..

Exactly. Or may be an internal circuit problem. Make sure it gets checked by samsung officials
is the battery charged ?
Try to conect and flash a rom or a diferent kernel,some problems come whit a bad kernel or delete battery stats in recovery advanced,or is a internal problem whit a solded piece

Hi
Did you get this sorted and if you did would you mind telling me how you did it.
I have the very same on mine
Thank you
Flash a stock rom via Odin and send back the phone to Samsung. Safest way to solve the problem for sure.

Sony W8 Boot Prob

Hey every one...!!
I'm a Sony W8 user facing a big prob
I was installing a kernel to my mob, but flash-tool hanged in between upto 15 min, this happened to me first time & it gave me big headache!!!
My mob is not working.
Other than a red blinking led nothing is working.
i charged my mob upto 15hrs, yet when i connect it to a power source it shows red led only.
i tried to flash it but it's not going in flash mod only.
And it is not bricked as sometimes it vibrates.
i can't use any tool as mob is not coming in flash mod!!!
i can't use flash-tool,PC companion,sony update service.
Anyone help me who knows the solution.
im on win7.

Make sure you have unlocked your BL 100% sucessfully and then flash the kernel.
If you're stuck at SE logo flash original SE firmware via Flashtool.

There is no chance of SE logo as i was using diff kernel.
The Prob is Kernel was not fully installed.
Now im facing prob is because there is no kernel in my mob so it's not turning up.
neither im able to flash as their is no green light!!!!!!!!!!!
Can u tell how to get in flash mod as the back button system is not working!!!!

Hey guys, I'm having big problem and can't go to sleep
i tried flashing the new ROM (i've done it so many times that i wasn't scared of anything).... Rom installed the Kernel too and I cleaned cache after installation, but ! when i choose Restart Now option, it suddenly restarted (screen went black suddenly) and the BLANK___________________. :'(
Here are the things i did whole day :/

2-Can't go in Download,Recovery Mode
3-Can't connect to PC

try this to see if your phone can be forced to boot up..
remove the battery from phone
connect the phone to pc, and when the pc beeps put the battery right away..
I tried it on my mini since it can't powered on a few days ago. and it worked.

Doesn't matter if it beeps or not actually, my PC didn't beep too when I plug the phone but I just put the battery back on and it booted.
I'm afraid your mini is indeed bricked.
You can try a USB jig or "Jtag (correct me if I'm wrong)..

Dude its expensive (about 150 $)
And it might not work . just send it to Samsung repair center and they will fix it for a cheaper price .
N.B : I did that , my phone got bricked too and as u can it is working .

To me, it looks like it needs to be sent back to Samsung. See if you can get it fixed under warranty, if not you'll have to pay. Good luck.

Hi dheeraj, is it possible that an empty or totally dead battery could prevent your phone from "memorizing" the flashing you do with Odin, so to send the device always in boot loop? I'm asking this since I'm having the same problem that the user who opened this thread has described, even if with a GT-S6500. It can only go into download mode, but not into recovery mode (could it be soft bricked?). I don't know what the previous owner did, but I'm trying to resurrect the phone. Thanks in advance for your help.

thought your problem got solved
no it cannot happen that without battery the memory would be washed out as it is written on a storage kind of device
what you can do is just flash a four package firmware through odin (phone, pda, csc etc. slots filled)
let the phone reboots on it own, after rebooting the mobile will automatically go into stock recovery and will do some processing and you would be done

I want to get rid of the problem so i keep on checking it.
Is this problem related to Kernel or some chip problem?
If this is kernel related Plz suggest me kernel(not stock) and custom ROM (4.2.2) for my device.
I will revert back if or not i get my solution.
Your problem is the kernel.
Stock rom is the most stable.

I have tried everything possible on the software part i.e installing roms and kernels....but no result
I think this might be problem from hardware side(Battery, its connectors etc)
When does your problem started?
and have you tried to replace battery?

As i wrote i sent it to a support company thats is certified by SONY.
My problem is there for three or four days.
I did not try to open the backcover becaus of warranty.
I hope that the company repairs my phone quickly and i can report what was the problem at the hardware.
