Samsung Galaxy S3 will not turn on

I have a tmobile galaxy s3 (Sgh-t999). I was flashing Sonic Team ROM @ FreeGS3 ROM - TheUnlockr and after I installed it I cleared dalvic cache as usual and hit reboot phone now. When it shut off it never came back on. Home, up, power and home & down do nothing. If i take out the battery and plug it in i can get the red light to go on but thats about it. Do you possibly have any suggestions for me. I have flash about 20 different roms on it with no issues. Usually i use Jedi Invasion 5 as my ROM but tried this one/. I would appreciate any help you may be able to give.Thank you
 
My wife's galaxy s3 had a pop up saying unfortunately Samsung sync adapters have stopped. Now the phone will Not stay turned on. At&t said it is under warranty but she's trying to save all her pics to the pc but the phone won't stay on long enough to sync. Is there anyway to salvage the phone?

Hi I am having the same problem - after taking a video my Galaxy S3 just shut down and will not charge properly. If I put my friend's battery in it manages to get to the "Samsung" Logo start up page but then freezes on it and can't go past it. My only problem is, I have all of my photos saved on the phone memory. At CarphoneWarehouse they told me they can send it to repair as it's under a warranty but their repair service wipes out all the data. Is there any way that I can try and save my things? Would recovery mode mean that there is a chance of saving the phone or does it mean complete reset?
 
I sent my phone in after the power button stopped working, rooted and unlocked. They are sending it back fixed since it was still under warranty.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S1 will not turn on

So I had a samsung galaxy S tm 4G (module SGH-T959V). So one day I was installing a game on it and it crashed, I tried to install a new OS on it using ODIN but it failed during the process. So because of that the phone was stuck in download mode. I wanted to try again so I took out the battery and from that it hasn't charge or turned on. I tried almost everything: soft reset, tried the download mode combination again, try connect to PC, tried open factory settings to clear cache or something. But the phone won't show no sign of life. What should I do? Someone help me please
 
my phone just froze was completely unresponsive so i took the battery out an now it wont switch on ive tried pressing the power,home and volume up/down and nothing is happening has anyone ever has this problem???
 
To the last 4 or 5 posters: There are 125 or so posts before yours, many with suggestions on things to try. Have you bothered to read this thread, or do you expect someone else to do it for you?

If you've read the thread, and none of it works, come back and provide us some actual information beyond "my phone won't work." Exactly what are the symptoms (does the phone power on, but the screen remain dark? Does the phone receive calls and texts? Or does it not power on at all? Did you do anything different before the problem started (attempt to root, flash a new ROM, install new software, anything else? Are you positive the battery is charged?

Without data, no one can help you. If you're not willing to read what's already been said, and try to help yourself, don't expect others to do it for you.
 
I'm having this issue myself. I got a pop up saying several apps stopped working, one of them said Google.com.Android stopped working... that didn't sound good! After it freezing up several times and finally a call from my wife, the phone just froze up and started doing the boot loop issue of displaying the Samsung logo (flashed very quick) then just staying on the Galaxy logo until I pull the battery. I've tried getting to recovery screen (volume UP + home +power) but it vibrates quickly then absolutely nothing.

Everything I've read here it seems like Samsung is pretty good about repairing/replacing the phones but mine has cracks on the screen... think they'll do it?

thanks!

EDIT: just wanted to note, I tried the volume down+home+power and that option actually works but I'm not about to mess with the OS... especially if Samsung will replace/repair the phone as it's under the warranty timeframe.
