[Q] Freeze at start up

Hi,
I have an Xperia X10 with Cyagenmod 6 (gingerbread 2.3.3) but it's broken. It won't boot any more. Some days ago it just went out, and it won't start up again. The phone behaves as if it freezes the moment android should load. Like if your computer would freeze in bios, unable to load your operating system.
I'm also not able to repair it with SEUS because although it recognizes the phone, it can't reset because the phone freezes just before the stage in witch it can reset.
I am kind of a noob with these things and therefore hope one of you guys could help me out. I'm not really looking foreward te buying a new phone already
Thanks!

kinda same problem..
i'm removing battery, put back and after holding power the phone shows green led for short time and vibrates for a sec and that's.
add:

This is what happened to mine what country u in

umm.. Do u move your mobile when the flashing process is going on? The xperia USB slot is pretty sensitive. Moving the phone can cause it to lose connection and abort the flashing process

i always receive this error if i move my phone.
Notice if you hear the USB device unplug sound from your PC before this error occurs.

it doesnt seem to be a connection-problem (no usb unplug sounds).
it seems that the phone is in a state, where bootup is not possible
But the phone is not required to boot during flashing. Did you try changing the USB slot on your PC? The one you're connecting your phone to? Try another slot. Sometimes that works too.

same result. can't flash
Me too. Can't flash with Flashtool (latest version), even without moving my phone. It starts flashing, but the progress bar shows of no progress. After a while it just says Error - Abort Flashing. I tried all of my USB port, but nothing changes.
after doing and trying my battery got completely drained (red led blinking) so i left it on the wallcharger for ~1day..
then at sometime it managed to boot up itself.. i left it for charging till 100%
after that i did a few "wipe battery stats" in xrecovery and now it seems to work stable again..
is it possible that messed up battery stats could cause the problem?
Wow, that would be nice.
A question! Was the little led on while charging? Because when I put my phone in the loader, it turns green (as if the battery is completely empty) and after a while it just goes off (when it would normally turn red). Do you have that to?
Putting my phone in the loader now, and waiting till tomorrow! Hope this helps!
yea, i've noticed this with my phone too..
strange led behavior..try to plug the charger first (green led turns on, cant say whether its charging or doing anything else) and then put in the battery and wait
maybe you're lucky and the phone will boot
and report pls
I didn't work. I've put my phone in the loader for over 24 hours, but nothing happened.
But my phone wasn't completely drained. Perhaps that is a condition to make this work. The only question is, how do I drain my battery when I can't turn on my phone?
i have used an 5watt light bulb ^^
connected on + and - and then waited till light goes out
Wel, I connected a little lamp and waited until it went out. Then when I put my battery in my phone and pressed the ON button nothing happend, not even the green light flashing shortly.
When I put my phone in the loader the LED started flashing red. And that whent on for a while until it stoped, and the LED did nothing. Then I waited over 24 hours, but nothing has happend.
When I put my phone in the loader now, it's just like before, the green light burns a little while, then nothing..
it happened to me again.. freeze and then no boot.
but i think i know whats wrong. for my phone i can say, that the battery is ok and the rom/os aswell.
its hardware problem. something is screwed up inside the phone.
when i press the phone at randomly places and hold it + then pushing on-button it boots up
i will open it tomorrow

[Q] S2 slowly dying

After a night time charge, my phone started to perform strange and I can't seem to get out of the situation.
It started with the temperature display showing on the battery when turning on. I am unable to start the phone, without it being connected to a powered on charger.Without a powered cable in, it just powers off, then goes back to the battery / temp display.
Upon starting, the phone runs fine, apart from the fact that it thinks there is something plugged into the USB port. This sometimes shows itself as the phone thinking it's still being charged to it thinking it's plugged in as a USB data connection.The USB port has been cleaned with the same outcome.
The phone can go from showing 0% charge to being flagged up as fully charged in under 10 minutes. Power the phone off and it will revert to charging as normal.
I'm unable to connect Odin to reflash as the USB port is detected as "unknown" device and I've tried this on numerous machines with the same outcome.
I'm unable to boot into recovery mode with clockworkmod, this coming up with the standard samsung boot options.
Is there a rom that I can copy over the phone, that will pass the Samsung validation check for ROM installation with the Down / power / action button combo.
I getting a bit frustrated with this at the moment, so any help advised will be great.
Cheers
Same thing happened to me, kinda, flash hyperdroid 4.0,you won't be sorry and it'l fix your. Problem.

Different battery
USB port cleaned with isopropyl alcohol with both Qtip and new tooth brush.
Numerous factory resets
Battery left out for an hour for full reset
Wipes with CMW recovery with SD card in and Out
I am unable to connect to a machine, so I am unable to use Odin to reflash.
I've just ordered a Jig, so will try that as soon as it arrives.
I'll try the hyperdroid 4.0. Does that flash ok with the stock bootloader as the CWM recovery does not boot, even though the phone is rooted ok.

Well an update to my issues.
The Jig turned up today, after two inserts the usb port occasionally was detected correctly. This gave me enough time to reload the kernal.
After another Jig reset (successfull this time) I was able to connect to Odin and reflash the handset.
The battery is still reporting funny things (goes from 60% to full in 5 minutes or charges normally) so I'll be doing a few more resets / wipes and reinstallations to see if I get to a normal place.
Thanks for all your help.
I have the similar problem as yours.
From time to time the phone thinks its connected to USB.When this happenes I get a "Batery Overvoltaged" reading using Batery Spy App. And I can't connect to my PC using USB. The other thing happening is the phone is waking up as soon as I turn it off and if I try to turn it off again it freezes and u need to reset or pull the batery out. I though I solved the problem when I left the phone off without batery for 12 hours but that only worked for a day and now it started again this time it switches to driving mode on and off, and USB connection. I tried Hard reset ,reverting to a stable ROM with CWM , cleaning the port with alcohol, puting the phone without the back cover and the battery in a bowl of rice for 12hours(water damage?) , cleanng caches, battery stats, different kernels, removed the SD card.
I don't know what trigers this but it drains battery fast and I too had the batery going from 30% to zero in a flash and the fast charginng atleast once. Couple of times the phone even started by itself when inserted back the batery...
Please keep me posted with your progress, I surfed google and found this particular problem several times in other places so it happens more often than I though, but no one posted a fix, or atleast what is causeing the problem

[Q] S2 cant run at all-runs to recovery only.

Hi, I have Galaxy s 2 i9100. When i was looking in my facebook app and then Flipboard app the phone just shutdown in my hands. I had 60 or 70 % batery left and when i tryed to turn in on it just booted to the AOKP rom of 4.2.2 boot logo after the galaxy s2 logo and didnt wanted to boot in to the rom.I forgot my origina charger and charget the phone trought a nokia data cable from the USB 3.0 and i dont know is my batery or the software. I turned the device whaile charging it with the other USB 2.0 but my laptop running Windows 8 Pro Says Uknown device and shuts down the power to the USB and the phone just shuts even when i managed to boot it to the starting setupe screen of the oficial Samsung rom-4.1.2 after flashing it with Odin 1.85. And still doesnt work. While the device is turned off and charging it i ( i had only the nokia usb/data cable) the batery indicator says the battery is full but turning it it says its only 9% full. Ok i whaited it turnned off and charging it still saying its full for a 3-4 hours and when i turned it on it said it have 99% battery olmoust full, but it still had the problem when the usb is turned off it shutsdown... I flashed it again to the stok official rom i got the rom ( that is 2.3.4) and after that the same problem. I left the phone for a day without a battery out side the phone and tryed it with my original charger ( when i got home ) and starts the batery-loading- shutsdown- after 3 times self turning selft shutngdown it boots`s its self to the recovery menu.I tryed reboot phone---nothing, again to recovery. Ttied full wipe full chache clean ( dont have the dalvic clean or battery statts clean in the original recovery) and again nothing, again it boots to the recovery and stays there for ever. Turning off the charger of the device after cleaning everything it cannot even turn at any logo not to talk forr the rom. I need help becouse i dont know should i buy a new battery or a new motherboard for my s2 ( That is Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 16GB 1.2GHz CPU. And the rom i had was AOKP milestone 2 with Android 4.2.2 i think, very lite on apps.) Thanks in advance.
Seems like a battery problem. Soon as flipboard came on it died.? Flip uses a lot of power so that may have bin the last straw for the battery. Did you notice any problems before this happened? Go to a local phone shop and ask to test a battery.
Don`t know did i mentioned but on charger the phone boots and after 3 flashes of battery charging logo going on and off it boots to recovery and if i remove the cable ( charger or usb) the phone stays on for ever. But it must be plugged to make it go to either recovery or download , but only in download mode if i remove the cable the phone shuts down instantly.
Have no success in rooting, flashing, clearing roms and nothing, I even tried the galaxy s2 usb jig for reseting the flash counter to give it for a repair in a warranty, but still with no luck.
Hopefully wiping cache and factory reset under the factory recovery will let it boot

Does any one read the first post. i all ready did that with the 2 stok recoverys the come from official samsung s2 rom for my country with android 2.3.6 and 4.1.2
Test with new or borrowed battery and see if it stays on. Take it to a local shop and ask nicely to try one out. I'm sure they won't mind to just test. If it stays on great news. Before you go to the shop Put neatrom 4.1.2 on an ext SD and philz kernel also a cm rom +gapps and try and flash one or the other while your in the shop. If all is well and it works pay for the battery and smile if it doesn't stay on then you may want to look while you're in the shop for a new phone.

[Q] Empty Battery Bootloop

I had a recent soft bricked due to some "unknown" problems which I couldn't figure out.
Anyways,I was able to boot into download mode and successfully flashed the stock jellybean firmware via Odin.
Now the problem is that my battery is empty and the phone is stuck on an what I think is an "Empty Battery Bootloop" was the battery icon blinking every 5 seconds or so.
Any ideas how to revive it ?
PS : I am unable to boot into recovery as well.
I have attached a screenshot of the issue I am facing.
Ur screenshot says... 404 error
Re-linked.
Maybe something went wrong while you were flashing the ROM via odin. First of all did you tick Only the right options while flashing in odin?
Supposing you did,
1. Maybe the ROM file which holds information for your battery might be facing curroption.
2. Maybe the kernel (the default one coming with the stock ROM) was not flashed properly.
In either case, I would suggest trying to boot into download mode and try to flash the whole thing all over again. If the problem persists, flash a different kernel/ROM or both.
II'm pretty sure that should fix the problem though.

Tried flashing via Odin for like three consecutive days.Still no luck.
I have googled it and found out that some users were facing the same problem when their battery was completely empty and the phone wont start because it didnt had enough juice to boot up.You know how to solve that problem?

Just keep it on charging wid 0.7mA or a 1mA charger for few hrs... if still it doesnt work..use a usb cord to charge via lappy...
Also use someone else's battery to boot up... and make a wipe data via stock recovery
Charged with USB for about 4-5 Hours.I cant get hold of a 1mA charger here.Using another battery is nearly impossible for me since none of my friends seem to have a S2.
Any other phone which has a battery identical to ours? (Or a Samsung phone with 4 pins possibly.)

Nope. Don't try a battery not designed for the device. Asking for trouble.
Time to change it with a new battery or hook up with an external charger?
PS : Took it to a local mobile repair shop and asked for a universal battery charger.
When I gave him the battery,the first thing he asked was if the phone ever got wet.
He said there's some I don't know what on the battery due to licking it.
I recently replaced the charging circuit from a trusted Samsung shop and he says it's totally fine.
Seems like some kind of corrosion on the battery.Any ideas on how to remove it ?
Anyone ?

Guessing it's time for a new battery, did you try more than one wall charger, they can go bad too.
You do not need a sim card, you can by pass setup
