i8190n not charging when powered off - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone,
I got the phone from my brother, in order to give it to my father so he would leave his iphone for this phone.
it's running resurrection remix and twrp 3.
the problem my brother had with this, and he said it was ever since he replaced the stock rom, is that the phone does not charge when it's powered off.
I've searched everywhere, and there's nothing that helps my situation, anyone had this problem and fixed it?
thanks in advance.

Anyone?

Help: My HD has suddenly gone dead

My hd has suddenly gone dead. The battery light does not turn on even if plugged in. I have tried to reset while plugged in but nothing happens. Connecting to the pc also doesn't help. Also tried to put it into bootloader without success. This does not feel good. Any ideas what might be the problem?
might be the usb connection. could be loose or bad
Have you tried to remove the battery, and put it back in..had a littel problem like (during unlock) that would turn on, removed the battery for 10s and put it back in and it turn on.

HI Bro Iknow ur pain, this happen to my diamond also, one day just didnt turn on after unplug from my vista machine. Only thing I could think of is that maybe there was a short circuit somewhere between pluging to the computer with usb.
You will have to send it for repairs unfortunately

The problem is that I have installed a custom rom...and no way of reverting to original...does this void my guarantee?
Came back ...for now

I tried this and it magically came back. The strange thing is that I had been taking the battery out and putting it back in many times ...but perhaps I had not left the battery out long enough.
The battery also seems full which is kind of strange since I had been using the phone all day without charging.
In any case, I will leave it charging over night and report back tomorrow.
Thanks for your help!

You'd better reflash a stock ROM and keep it for a while until you are reasonably sure that it was just a case and won't happen again.

Hi again,
I am also trying to use the same soft, but no luck... could you please, eventually by PM, tell me the steps that worked for you?
And it can be in Portuguese... ; )
Thanks,

Dead again
Well...it did happen again. This morning I found it dead again while plugged in. Unfortunately, I did not reflash it to stock rom. I can now only hope that I get a second chance to reflash before sending it off. Any other ideas are welcome.......

Looks like my hd has to take a trip to the factory.
Quick question: since I didn't manage to revert to initial rom does anyone know what the policy is on repairing an htc with custom rom?
That is indeed unfortunate...
What custom ROM have you installed? Have you checked in the thread if someone else had similar issues? And have you installed any particular program?
Also, you had no such issues while you were on the original ROM?
If you have this type of issues, trying to flash a stock ROM without being sure about the cause for the issues might be a little dangerous... There would be, I suppose, the risk that something might go wrong during the flashing process. And you would risk having a lovely brick...
Regards,
P.
I have installed Panosha's light version. No one else seems to be having this problem. Is there a chance that the battery is faulty? Can I have it repaired even though it has a custom rom installed?
Hi,
It might be a problem with the battery, but you could only try this possibility if you used other HD... by the way you have been using the wall charger or the usb cable attached to the PC?
Regarding the possiblity of having it repaired, under warranty, it could depend on the repairer itself. At the limit they could refuse to repair it under warranty, because a non-official ROM has been installed, and, specially, because a non-original HSPL is in place... but they could also overlook this, or do not notice it.
I would make sure it can not be "ressurected" and properly flashed before going to HTC service.

P.

If you do, then please tell us. That's exactly what I was wondering.

I have tried several times to resurrect it without success. On one ocassion I had the power light turn on for about 2 seconds then dead again. The only thing I have not tried is to try another battery. I will probably find one by tomorrow to test. Otherwise on Friday it will head to the repair shop...and fingers crossed. I will let you know what the repair policy seems to be here in Greece.

Your phone is not broken!
Duttys ROM does not have this problem. I have had the same with Panosha's ROM and with Touch of HD ROM. The screen goes black and only removing the battery brings it back.

I wish this were the case, but even after removing the battery I cannot get it to function. Even when plugged into an outlet the power light does not turn on, so it's clearly more than a blank screen.

[Q] boot issue

hi all,
after a research almost all the web and forums including this too, i didn't find some1 that had or have issue like mine. sgs turn on to download without any key press or combinations,every time!,to turn it on i connecting it to a charger and when the battery charge meter shown i press the power button and its working. how i fix this?
another problem that when i turning it off it vibrate to indicate that its complete turn off(not really) and then the battery meter flashing without any charger or usb connected.(wtf?) how can i resolve this? its comes after flashed cm7 mod stable and nightly...in stock rom it's not happening.
with this problems have more big one : NO IMEI NUMBER at all! neither 000x15 or 000xxxxx. so for now it's just like a palm handset ^^ and "live" replacement parts ^^
tnx for reading this...hopefully u will post any comment that can help me solve at least 1 of my issues.
sorry for my english if it's not good enough
Hey man,
for the first issues, it sounds like a bad flash or a kernel issue,
Have you tried to flash a new kernel?
There are a lot good ones out there, just google for ex, "Glitch i9000" or "Platypus i9000"
for the imei problem, does this aply with a stock rom?
I've read somewhere that some people lost their IMEI number at some of the newest samsung firmwares, they got i back when they flashed back to an older firmware.
You can grab an Stock rom from http://Samifirmware.com
then you look up a good guide on how to flash!
Then you'l get a clean flash and things should work as they should.
Hope this helps you out!

Hello. I'm experiencing the same issue, which I detailed a lot here. So far, not a single answer. But the more I Google, the more I find people with the same issue, but still, a bit rare...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35018530#post35018530
Additional symptoms before this unusable state: after a phone call, when removing the phone from your ear, screen stays black. You have to press any button you can to finally switch the screen on again.
Crazy !!
If you read my post, you'll see that I can use the phone as long as it's plugged to a power source...

Hello. I have been looking this forum from long time and thx to the developers and everyone who brings to us all the stuff.
Soo about my problem. Its similar to the first post, but with one exception.
My phone display cracked and so i give it to be repaired. Everything was working more than perfect then, but after the change /ofc display works fine/ but keeps shutting down when i try to use applications/games or even when i open the camera/. When i try to turn it on it goes to the sony logo and then nothing... /bootloop/ turns off again. I have to plug the charger and then phone comes back to life when i turn it on. It heats abit more /i think/ than before. Ofc before was heating too but i didn't face problems like that. Soo my question is... can be a software problem or hardware problem? Im using the last stock rom as it was given from sony.
Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance...
Best regards.

[Q] Help Please, My M7 is Unresponsive

Hello all, thanks for taking the time to look at my thread.
Last night I put my M7 on the charger and when I woke up it would not turn on. Also the indicator LED was not on, neither orange or green. I tried several cables, wall warts, car chargers to no avail. After a bit of googling I came across an issue where the device shows up in Windows device manager as QHSUSB_DLOAD, and this is exactly my case. I am in the process of trying a fix that uses Ubuntu, but I would like some input, or any ideas I could also try to resurrect my phone.
It was rooted and running ViperRom, on their last version of KitKat. I have not flashed anything to it since that update came out. Also it had the stock kernel to that Rom.
The phone has not responded to any button press combinations, nor the bright lights on the sensor.
Finally I did notice that my PC, as well as my aftermarket car stereo, were able to connect to the phone but were unable to interact with it.
Please if anyone has any input I am open to all suggestions, also if you need more info/details about the situation I will answer any question as best I can.
Thanks again!

QHSUSB_DLOAD issue happens for 2 reasons
Hardware failure (most likely the motherboard)
Bad firmware flash
Cause #2 can be fixed using the unbrick project with ubuntu.
Cause #1 requires a motherboard replacement.
Since you didn't flashed anything that directly resulted with a qhsusb_dload brick then its #1.
i was afraid of that, thanks for your reply!
