[Q] galaxy s3 boot freeze - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi,
last night my phone went out of battery and in the morning I put it in charge when I looked back at it was frozen on charging logo(the logo wasn't moving)
I had to take the battery out and after that if I put the battery in early it turns on by itself, If I keep the battery out for a moment and then plug it init keeps being off until turn it on and then freezes with s3 logo.
I tried hard reset it gives me an error of "failed to mount system invalid argument"
My phone is normal s3 with all automatic updates.
I had installed no programs recently just did an update of softwares earlier during the day.
Regards
Reza

[Q] My Note is Dead X_X // Privacy Question

When I send back my SGNote to Samsung, is their protocol deleting the DATA from the device [internal (sd)] first? Basically, what happens to my data?
WHAT HAPPENED: I was downloading an app through the Amazon App Store when my phone froze. I put it down and walked away to the kitchen when I heard the boot up sound a couple of minutes later. I walk back to see that my SGNote was stuck with the Samsung/N7000 logo. I left it for several more minutes and decided to pull the battery out.
I booted into recovery mode and just randomly decided to do "Fix Permissions" which I knew wouldn't fix the problem then it rebooted itself and was still stuck at the logo. I pull the battery out and waited a couple of seconds; I put the battery in and the phone would not turn on at all. At least I'm pretty sure the screen won't turn on. I plug in the phone to the wall charger but still nothing.
TL;DR It's definitely dead.

Tmobile galaxy s3 won't stay on

Ok so i spend 2 hours looking for a similar problem and potencial tricks to fix it with no aveil..... basically if i turn on my phone without being connected to a charger, the phone will show the samsung logo and shutdown after 2 seconds. Now if i connect it to the charger the phone will start but shutdown as i approach to slide it... then tried getting into recovery mode without the charger and it woul'd just show the blue guy ( clockwork) for 1 second and shutdown... then i tried getting into recovery mode with the charger connected and it worked so i wiped the cache and wiped the data.. so after the formating was done i disconnected it and turned it on and still same problem... so i plug the charger and turn it on again, now iam in the welcome screen and as it get to the setting up of wifi screen, it shuts down but if i stay in the welcome part it will stay on??? and never shutdown unless i finish the set up, after clicking finish the phone will shutdown!!!
- Tried everything, ranging from pulling the battery for 30 minutes to fully charging it.. which i noticed that it wont fully reach to top..
- However the phone does allows me to to get into download mode without the charger being plugged in
- Its a galaxy s3 from tmobile on 4.3 firmware rooted
- All of this happened because i left a game open while it was connected to pc.. it looks like the phone needed more energy than the pc was providing so it drained the battery.. when i woke up it was charging with a thermostat sign ( yes it was very hot)
battery lasted a whole day so i dont think its a dead battery
It should like a duff battery

[Q] n7000 doesn't power on anymore - out of ideas

Hi,
so I charged my Note (running some cm10 stable release) over night, using my ipad charger (5.2V, 2.4A) as I sometimes do, and the next morning the phone was stuck at the unlock pattern screen but didn't react to any inputs.
After rebooting the initial n7000 screen and the CM loading animation appeared. The phone never booted, though and reverted back to the n7000 screen and stuck there. Tried to reinsert the battery (also tried with a different one) but the phone only got to the n7000 screen the first 2 times and got stuck there. Now the phone doesn't even do that. Just black screen and no sign of life. Tried removing the SD and also getting into recovery and download mode to no luck.
Any ideas what else I could try?
Thanks!

Galaxy N7000 won't turn on

Hello guys! My Galaxy has turned off itself while charging. I've tried to turn on, it starts and freeze with SAMSUNG logo. I removed the battery, then I tried to turn on the phone again, in different ways, charging, recovery, bootloader, with no results... Samsung logo no longer appears. I checked the battery in another device that worked. May be the main board broken?

Samsaung Galaxy mini

I used my phone till the battery level was getting low. I charged it. But, when I reopened it. It stucked and did not reach its homepage. At the end of restart, samsung logo appears in mini. But, my phone stucked there and then restarted itself. Could any of you tell me what's happening
