Hi guys, I have a rooted samsung galaxy j5 model (J500h) and last night I was playing game using Xmod. Suddenly its screen got Black. I removed the battery, inserted it again, charged it, tried to do it in recovery, safe mode, and download mode, but no mode appears. Please suggest me any help.

Battery dead? Did you try flashing a stock rom on it? Did you try to do a full wipe?

First my phone was rooted. An error "custom binary blocked by FAP" occured and then i unrooted by going to download mode and again inserting the stock os. it was upto 900mb of stock os. pnce unrooted i again rooted it and then i was using it at night and its screen display went out. Don't know what happened. No display. No vibration. Nothing. Plzz help.
Was phone first hand or second hand? Some guys sell u phone's with a phones outside hardware but the inside is completely fake
It was internal problem with my motherboard. Got a new motherboard for my phone in warranty.

This is scary... Is it possible that rooting might have had an impact on the motherboard? I'm asking this because I casually test different roms and kernels and tweaks once a few days and I don't want my device to have your fate...

Extremely unlikely rooting or any kind of software modification could cause hardware to fail.
It's purely a coincidence.

Alright! So far I have been flashing things in a day more than any normal human would need : ))))
But that problem was at the time when i had stock rom not rooted. I am currently running a rooted j5 5.1.1 not upgraded to 6.0.1 and it is working perfectly fine. I also have changed the stock boot animation but nothing lags. No errors. All Ok !

That is fine my friend just a matter of time there are many things I too donno and take my other expert help
And ya i also can't say exactly what cud have caused bootloop may be some bad files £ apps etc
It won't be under clocking as u did stock flash and was stuck so device was trying to boot in new os u installed
May be something u removed after rooting could have caused boot loop

Yes, mate! I actually using no bloatware app to

But the boot loop when we turn off the phone ourselves
and when turn it back, it stuck seems no way to pass samsung logo. Maybe I underclocked the phone and it causing the phone to fail to boot past?? I am right or not

No you don't have to its already unlocked
Unlike sony
Just flash a kernel with all the feature u need and done
Infact there is a kernel with all that feature called perseus but still on alpha and some bugs are there have to wait for some more days that will be one of the best kernel

Bootloops are mainly caused by system files interfering with each others which cause instability and/or crash at the boot sequence. :good:

Hi guys,
I'm about to lose right now concerning this issue. I've had my International Version Galaxy S4 since mid July and it was all candy and heaven, until devil 4.3.3 version came up. I upgraded my phone via OTA. From that moment i have had the most obnoxious and stupid battery drain ever. my phone wont go to sleep mode and discharges over 50% in 8 hours overnight.
I called TechSup bur obviously they didnt do **** to help me, so i installed Gsam a few days ago and this is what happened (check the attachments)
Well. Without further ado, I present to you my stupid phone.:crying:
Great day everyone!
Ur phone suffers from wakelock issues which keeps your phone awake. Only way to combat this is flashing a different ROM (different KERNEL) onto your phone.

You get better info with three battery setting screenshots (little graph with main consumption processes, big graph tapping over little graph with partial wakelocks and other states, and screen total time on), please, post them.
Usually your problem can be fixed by over flashing same rom with Odin 3.09 (no data losing)

I had this drain in my old S2 when I upgraded from 4.0 to 4.1.. So to get rid of it, simply format your data (you can backup the apps u want via helium or any backup app)

Your problem seems similar to mine but in a bigger scale, you find more info at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557164
Right now the suggestion I have was given by the user maanz "L"
U might want to go to Google play store and select "do not auto updates".
Another thing to check is; got to Settings/MyDevice/Accessibility and unchecked Notification Reminder.
Next is; go to Google Settings app, open Android Device Manager and uncheck "Remotely report this device".
Reboot after making these changes and check BBS app after 4 hours.
Hope that these could bring down the high Android OS and phone awake.

Hi all
I bought a new samsung S4 i9505 ---without guaranty---
2 days ago the device started restarting and the sound goes dead and there can't be anything to make the device produce any sound neither from the front speaker nor from the main speaker nor even the headphones !!
I did a hard reset and voila -or i thought so- the device finally worked fine completely , until after about an hour when it started freaking out and not responding and the sound went dead again , restarting the device only sent it to a boot loop !
Finally today i installed a complete system using ODIN and it worked fine again for only an hour and then it went to the boot loop
I plugged the phone to the charger and powered it on and it worked smoothly but with no sound at all again :X
So can any guy help me sort this problem out please
Thanks in advance

Stores usually offer warranty.
So there's something odd at the middle.
Maybe you bought it from some dealer on the street..and those usually never sell you anything good.
Well the store did give me a warranty but only for software issues , and he said this must be a hardware issue.
So is this true ?

I asked WHEN, not WHERE.
When is time related. Where is location related.
Also, warranties usually are all-rounders. Meaning they offer service to software and hardware related issues.
So why did they offer only software?
Anyway. If it is hardware related then there is nothing you can do, except to change the parts.
LOL
My bad , i read it like where , and was like what difference does it make where i got it , my mistake
anyway as i said it is not a big firm or anything like that is just a small shop only providing software warranties
and as i said in the first post i got it about a month ago
i will try flashing with pit file
thanks for the advice

Didn't see that info
Anyway. What I am trying to say is that maybe they knew about the phone having issues and that's why they offered only software warranty (A bit paranoic, I know)
once the phone boots up try dialing *#0*# and let us know how that goes. This MAY be a kernel issue. happens when they probably have given you an S4 with a different model number, with a different firmware flashed. (sometimes i9505 vs. i9515 due to different chips) What is the model number shown in the download mode? i9505? And Knox Status?
The service tests all OK except both speaker tests
The download mode shows i9505
i don't know what this Knox is

So your bootloader doesnt say anything about knox? What version of android are you running?
KNOX cernerl lock : 0x0
KNOX warranty void: 0x1
i was on latest jellybean , tried flashing it with odin and the problem didn't go away
tried lollipop and it is just the same
when i turn the phone on it gives the booting sound hangs about a min or tow boots up , sometimes doesn't even complete booting, sometimes the sound stays functional for a few mins then stops sometimes it instantly after the boot stops
could it be some minor issue like battery malfunction maybe ?
or is it a big issue ?
i don't want to take it to samsung and pay the fix if i can fix it my self because i am not good at turkish and they speak so little english that i will not be able to make them understand the problem

First Charge your battery , your device wont be able to charge it but you have to charge using another A5 or any other way and then you have to try again to enter download mode. without battery you cannot do anything.

Hi! I think they can't verify if you have root your phone because the phone won't turn on, they don't have access to Download Mode to see if KNOX is triggered. So, Just send your phone to Samsung and wait... :fingercrossed: I think your motherboard is died.
Also, you may try to press the power button for 15 seconds at least

Normally, it's not good to downgrade your firmware. iPhone is different
I think you should send your phone to Samsung and they'll replace it. Don't Worry

Hard Brick
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-alpha/help/sm-a500fu-maybe-bricked-please-help-t3167400
Has anyone yet an idea how to avoid it (execpt not downgrading or custom recovery) ... seems to have something to do with bootloaders
when you downgrade lollipop from kitkat you must need factory reset in recovery mode.
hard brick

I only did it from touchwiz, but can anyone explain what happens that it hard bricks = no chareger symbol, no nothing. It seems to destroy both bootloaders, as even a JIG did not help ....

Did you slove your probleme?
You need to use debrick image to unbrick your phone. Get it from someone who has same device as you.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have seen videos for galaxy s4 and s3 but can't find one for our a5.
Bro, you need to run commands in terminal emulator. Google it, you will find it.

Have you ruled out battery issues? Get a new one fulfilled by Amazon, best way to avoid fakes.

If it always reboots when you battery is low, then it's your battery that needs to be replaced.
not always when battery is low
The reboot problem occurs any time....when the battery is around 30 it switch off n then i hv to charge again to start it
Still sounds like battery voltage fluctuating, hence your issues. Come back once you've tried new battery.
ok thanks...let me check
Its getting worse day by day...how to verify battery is original while buying
