Hello,
I have a problem. I rooted my SGS and want to enable Paid apps. But i have made a mistake and renamed the build.prop tu build.prop.bak and didn't copy the modified build.prop. Then i restarted the device and now it starts just with the galaxy logo and then nothing is shown on the Screen. I can hear the boot sound but nothing apears on the screen. Pls. Help me what can i do ?
You can try to re-flash the firmware.
I have the same problems, my situation is that i reset the fone and whilest the fone was resetting i dropped it and the battery came out, now the fone does not go past the intro, i just get a black screen, i have tried the hard reset by holding the volume button down while pressing the power button, but it does the same as above, pls help

I've got no idea how to flash to stock australian rom any help would be most appreacited....
Turn the phone off.
Check then if download mode is working(volume+,home then power).
If this works then use odin to change the firmware.
Search the development section for this.
Hope you fix it.

It started as soon as I received a phone call from my brother and we were in the middle of a conversation when the phone suddenly goes off. I tried to restart it, I even removed the battery and replaced it but when I press the power button I get the initial boot sequence showing the htc logo and then the phone would just go of. I thought that maybe the battery is low but when I plug it to a power outlet it keeps trying to boot but keeps switching off and it just does this over and over.
Please I don't know if anyone has encountered this problem before, I really don't know what to do.

Try a Hard Reset using the device buttons:
1. With the phone off. If it’s frozen or unresponsive, pull then replace the battery.
2. Press and hold the Volume Up and Volume Down buttons and power the phone back on.
3. Continue to hold Volume Up and Volume Down until a factory reset screen appears.
Hope this helps!

Well I just did that but the problem persist. I should note that occasionally it does complete its boot up and I can use the phone but it can go off at any time and once it does this, i cannot get it to completely boot up. Once it attempts a boot up and goes off I cannot even restart it by pressing the power button until I replace the battery or plug it into a power socket or the computer at which point it will just keep booting up and shutting down.
Something far wrong there. Get a replacement device.

Hi, I have got the same problem on my HD7 and I am completely noob to many new words Goldcard, jailbroken, etc. Would you please advise me exactly what you did (i mean flahing procedure) and really appriciate any help.
Well if you have got an O2 HD7, then I would advise you to get one of the O2 ROMS from ansar, download it then press and hold the volume down button when booting up your device, connect the phone to your pc and start the app. More instructions in the HD7 development thread.
There's nothing wrong the phone. Don't hard reset or flash it. It happens from time to time, just give it some time and eventually you will see a battery icon appear. Then after awhile it will boot up.
Again, do not flash or hard reset just be patient. I believe it just needs to drain all the way down as it doesn't have enough power to fully boot.
Not booting up

Hello all,
For some reason, my Galaxy s with froyo does not start anymore since this morning. It stays on the start up window, "GALAXY S, GT-9000 SAMSUNG" all the time. Perhaps it is installing an update. i do not know as i have not downloaded anything.
What are the steps for fixing this if it stays all the time.
Should i do a manufactyre reboot? if so, how to do this?
Thanks for your help

i take it you are on a stock samsung rom ??
if so boot into recovery menu, Holding volume up button + home button + power button all at the same time
this should bring up a menu with the option to do a factory reset. navigate it using volume up and down. and home button to select
you will lose all your data !! but this might fix the problem.
if not report back and we will consider some other options
this is strange.. 2 days ago my phone started experiencing similar things. I have stock UK rom, unlocked, no rooting, everything official, no damage..
I pulled the battery out, and it did it again. What i did in the end is just leave it there, and it eventually switched on. What could be causing the slowdown?
Still blocked on start up window
i did the rebood
vol up + home + power
wiped the memory and factory reset
and when i restart it still stays on the first window (at least 1 hr now)..
any other suggestions?
thx
Same story here, stock UK rom...no rooting etc. Has happened to me in the past. Luckily the factory reset from recovery mode had worked.
Phone back to normal now, still not very reassuring with others similar stories.
Can anyone shed any light on this issue? I'm no expert myself.

I would flash a new custom rom

No hacks no cracks then its under warranty Samsung Service centre .
If the fault is hardware then custom rom may not help at all .

I had just installed the latest ics fw on my note previously running gingerbread and never had a problem. After i downloaded the 316mb update( approx size, don't remember the actual size) and installed it the phone was on the packet installation screen with a bar on the bottom. The bar filled up in half an hour and i kept waiting for another hour but nothing happened. After that i shut down my phone and restarted it again. It showed up the galaxy note n-7000 screen and then the android bot with diamond on the screen for a couple of seconds and then the screen turned black. Then i took out the battery and tried to restart the phone again but to no avail. All it shows is the galaxy note screen and then a black screen. I have never modded my phone and it was absolutely stock. What is wrong with this phone, and any chance i could fix it up myself rather than going to the service center because i am out of city for a month and need my phone for work real bad. Thanks in advance for any help provided.
PS : Tried the home button + volume down button and power button trick that does bring me to a caution screen of installing custom OS.
PSS : And now when i start up the phone with charger plugged in it just keep displaying the battery on the screen.

how u are using three button technique. first press volume up then home button and then power button all one by one as mentioned in the same order then just hold three till u reach boot menu.
^
Tried it again thrice again exactly in the same order you asked to but same thing happens. The galaxy note n-7000 screen flashes twice and then the android bot with blue ball/diamond for couple of seconds and the screen goes blank.
Though i can access the download menu by pressing volume down + home button + power button
try instal new rom using odin and download menu.....have u tried the same by removing battery also.
What Rom where you on before this problem happened? Were you rooted?
Best to follow this to the letter
Go into download mode.
Pc odin stock rom from www.sammobile.com for your countries phone with pit file for your phone.
Exact way is in dr Ketans thread in sticky section of development.
Do not do factory reset or wipe data on ICS period

Hi to all the xda members this is my first post here :laugh:
About a month ago i decided to fix the screen (black screen no image) of my S3 mini, so i buught a replacement on ebay. after a few days and some youtube videos i change the screen and the protector glass and the phone was working again then i take the phone and install it the CWM recovery because a read that is a good tool to have on a android phone, after a few days of use (no hits no water no fallen) the color of the phone was incredibly oversaturated and too much bright but to be honest i keep using it like that. few more days later the screen suddenly turn green.
The phone boots normal you can hear the noise and even answer a call if you know where to touch So i think in trying to wipe the cache using the CWM (entering using the volume up + home + power method) calculating how many times to touch the volume down button and the power button to get it done, btw it's 3 time volume down 1 power button 7 more times volume down and 1 another power button. But when i touch the first time the power button the phone just boot up normally so i put more attention and when it turn on using without releasing the 3 button the phone makes a little vibration but after a few seconds there is no second vibration.
In this point and just out of ideas, i don't have warranty for the phone here in my country, so i think the big question here is should i buy a new screen or is another kind of problem???
P.S: sorry for the long post and my bad english
no ideas with the problem???
i little update with my problem:
after reading a lot looking for a solution (or at least understand the problem) i try to install a custom rom using odin but still nothing change, after that i use the aokp rom from maclaw page and still nothing, so i say to myself you should try using the kies, so i give it a chance to the kies but it fails so i went back to install a stock rom using odin and after the reboot the phone screen shows a boot logo (a X with the sames color that the windows) so there it was the screen working like it should. after like 15 min the logo was still there so i remove the battery and try to enter to the recovery to make a wipe, after pressing the 3 combinations button shows up the first logo in white letters but after that the same screen problem from the begining showing just artifacts.
after all that i try to flash everything back to stock and make a repartition (using a pit file that i found here on xda) but this time using heimdall instead of odin and still no change.
at this point i am out of ideas, i would listen to any recomendation no matter how crazy it sound just want my phone back to work
it is possible to make a "nand erase all" to the phone using odin and after make a repartition flash stock files using heimdall???
will the phone be able to boot into download mode after a nand erase???
