[Q]SGS maybe bricked ? i could use a little help. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys.
I used to have a phone like this now i moved to S3, i'm used with a lot of roms etc.. so i'm very familiar with it but my friend brought to me one what has some very strange errors ? first of all the screen didn't turn on but the phone turns on and the touch buttons on the bottom either. So we decided to use my old sgs and put the motherboard in it. Meanwhile we found out it has already opened and got a new screen ( who replaced didnt even glued the screen to the phone ) and who replaced it he succesfully broke the digitzer cable ( we have some spare parts so we can change). Anyway we gonna connect all the parts correctly and now the question. As i mentioned we put the motherboard in my old sgs it works but it have a strange problem. it can't turn on it always brings up the battery screen ( when you plug it to charger when the phone is turned off it), its like the phone starts to find out the battery percentage the little loading goes on the battery shows up and then imadeietly turns off. I can put in download mod it already got a new stock rom and if it's plugged to usb it turns on. It do this with an other battery too. So i appreciate any help and thanks anyway to reading this

Post moved.
I don't think you have a brick, and you definitely need to settle down. As long as you didn't flash a G4 IPL/SPL you should be OK.
1) Make sure you battery is installed correctly.
2) Hold down the power button for a couple of seconds before releasing it.
3) Try another battery.
Or take out the battery for like half an hour and then plug it back in
Good luck
thanks guys.i hope its work
but like anchilious did.i put another ohine without the battery.splash screen is goin on an off.but i i put the dead phone phone.nothing is happening.not even red light.but charging point is keep heating.its getting warm.help me plz

My LG p970 can't turn on

Dear everyone
My nephew just gor p970 yesterday
for the name of curiosity, i checked and tried the phone.
the rom is 10a
i did root using gingerbreak
it was succeed. i dont kno why i has to root anyway.
actually no need for installing the special app.
then i registered the phone to access to the market.
installing some media music player with lyrics lrc.
the phone then warns the battery just 15%.
i plugged it to the power AC, and continues selecting the music apps.
after several minutes somehow it hangs, the music is jammed.
i pulled the power cord.
i tried turn off by hold the power button not helped. then i removed the battery.and put in back.
restarted, the 4 low phone button was blinking, the screen was grey.
for several minutes, there's no sign froyo menu.
hopeless, i removed the battery.and put in back agin..
i tried to turn on the phone, and it just like no sign of life. no lg logo.
just quiet like corpse. oh dear, what i have just done?
i dont think it is bootloop case, and i dont think it is software issue, right?
charged for 2 hours without any sign of charging, no led indicating what so ever.
still like a dead mobile phone without battery.
Just remove Memory card sim card and flash ur phone with latest V20o or v20e firmware using SMARTFLASH tool. U will get it in development section serch for post [ROOT] v20b and v20o i hope ur phone will work again

There's no way to turn on the phone at least to software upgrade mode via hard reset or something.
no screen / beep / led that was turned on when i push the power button or even when i charge it. totally gave up.
Remove your SIM Card, SD Card and Battery. And Press Hold Volume + Key while Plugging USB Cable to your phone. Your phone should be in S/W Mode, then try Flashing it using SmartFlash.
Check your power cord,is it connected or not?
i mean, it happened to me once (the power is off )
Can't get into the s/w upgrade or what?

i checked the power cord with others also, nokia phone that has same power cord.the nokia was charging, where the optimus was not, not given any clue charging. no led. no sound. nothing. creep...
i just went to the store, and checked with the demo stock battery. it's dead cannot turned on, same. no sign of life.
i gave it back to my nephew to check it to service center tomorrow office hour. i am felling bad bricking his phone. i never bricked original rom smartphone before. it is so badly there's no sign of life.
the question is remaining in my head: this because of the not so qualified first optimus black stocks since it is using 10a, or my miss-use?
i did nt flashing custom rom inside it, i don't think i miss-use it.
it;s no sign of lg boot or minimal sound of turned on, i don't think sw upgrade manually in house will help, right? i did try the hard reset method, up/down volume button with power button pressed at the same time continuouslyand i think plugged in also with usb computer.
there's no new usb device detected.
there's no sign of going to s/w upgrade.
this is just not my day. maybe i have to many sins for jailbreaking
hopefully he can have changed for a new one, rather than serviced for weeks.
Just volume up and then plug in the usb cable. That's how you enter sw mode. But no sign of life at all, is really strange...

same thing with mine
i ve been usinfg OB for 4 months now, and ve used all sought of roms since then and no problem. presently was on sapphire rom 2.2, tried making a call and all of a sudden d screen was off colour, so i removed battery, placed it back in and can't even get the LG logo when switching on. On using volume up plus power key it entered software upgrade mode but this does not show on the screen, used smart flash and it even made it worse. i ve taken it to LG centre now waiting for reply.

It's okay
In this case, i think it's not your fault, it's a factory fail i think
If its guarantee hasn't been expired yet,sure he can get a new replacement

are u using the original cable because other kinds of cables won't work

Like agent205 said, it might be a factory problem. My phone died also like that. I put it to charge and in the morning I just couldn't turn it on. So I use the guarantee and they sent it back after 3 weeks, just saying that they replaced the motherboard (and also replaced software lol). Good luck !

Can you charge the phone?
Vol+ and insert USB does not work, no sw Upgrade Modus?
When yes, flash firmware again.
When no, its hardbricked, then send to service.

I9000 Spontaniously off.

I've never had any problems with my I9000, but now I found my I9000 dead in my pocket, tried to turn it on, and it went on but went directly off in the last boot screen, Like the battery got removed. I've found out that when I press the back of the phone a bit, the phone goes off. also when I normally boot it, put it on the table and don't touch it, it goes off after a while too. I have 3 battery's and the problem happens on each of them. Now I am wondering where the problem could be. I have removed the motherboard completely and put it back and didn't work. I hope someone can help me out
Thanks in advance,
Armazia

Okay, well a little update, I have removed the motherboard again and heated it up with a hairdryer, Now it actually works, but heavy shocks will also preform an instant death, I think it has something to do with the soldering of the cpu... I guess I'll heat it up again and more, see if that takes care of some things.

galaxy note completely dead!! help!!

hello everybody!! I have a GT-N7000 with stock rom and 3 days ago it has become completely dead! there was 50% in the battery, so after 10 minutes i came and found it turned off so i tried to turn it on and it turned on but it froze at the samsung logo screen and tried rebooting 3 times but it didn't work. and now its completely dead it acts like its water damaged but it isn't. So after all that I went to Montreal GSM for a fix but they diagnosed the problem to be water damage so I told them okay fix it, and when i came to get my phone back he told me that this wasn't the problem! so now i have my phone with me and dunno what to do with it!could it be the mother board?and if its the mother does anyone know how much does it cost to replace it in samsung service center in montreal? Thank you guys!!!
yeah and two more things I tried another battery but nothing worked
and there was a screen showing up during rebooting and something strange was written on it " some custom roms might fail the system" somthing like that. i'm not sure cuz it only showed up for 2 sec.
thank u again
Motherboard is pretty expensive. No download mode also? Make sure there is a charged battery. Remove the battery and reinsert it. Press volume down + home + power. Anything at all?

SAD DAY, is my Note finally DEAD? :(

Hi Guys,
So this morning, I woke up to find my phone had rebooted overnight. Not surprised by this, as it often happens randomly from time to time. This time however it was stuck on the Samsung splash screen, black screen with white writing, saying N7000 blah blah....
So I rebooted the phone, and it was still stuck on the N7000 splash screen. I left it like this whilst I drove to work, and it was still like it.
I took the battery out, and left it for a little while and put it back in, but NOTHING. black / blank screen... I left it on charge on and off through out the day, as I was trying to fix another phone issue (someone elses at work...)
Anyway, got back to mine, and still nothing. Still nothing booting or displaying on screen now, just blank / black screen. As our phones don't have LED notification light, can't tell if there's life there or not. The [Open Windows] and [Back] buttons don't light up or anything.
I've read about the famous "Samsung, Black Screen of Death" which appears to affect many Galaxy branded devices, S1 - S5, Note 1 - 4, and some other models, higher up without removable batteries.
They all seems to post positive remarks, getting their phones back from the dead, by holding power button down for 1x minute and leaving the battery out to drain phone of residual? power.... I've tried this, and still no life yet. They say it may not work first time... I've tried it a few times.
Do I keep going, or is it DEAD DEAD now?? Anyone else had this? Has it worked for you guys or not??
So gutted, loved this phone...
Thanks, Lister
:crying:Still DEAD:crying:
Have you tried using Kies to restore the OS? Or download the OS file from Sammobile and install it manually using Odin.
Hi @iceepyon,
Thank you so much for replying, I appreciate that... :good:
Sadly though, I think my Note is a little beyond that stage... It doesn't even turn on, with or without battery/mains power. I think either the eMMC chip is toast, or some other hardware failure now.
All these Black Screen of Deaths for Samsung video's appear not to apply to my device, and think my device is actually just a paperweight now. Gonna try one more time to bring it back from the dead, with a JIG and see if I can repair it that way... Otherwise, it will be going to the great Silicon Heaven, in the sky.....
Thanks again... Lister

Best of luck to you. If the eMMC chip is indeed toast then you would have to purchase a replacement motherboard. It is very hard to find a N910C motherboard.
