I haven't actually tried it in a wall charger but I have tried it with both the extended battery that was in it as well as the original OEM battery.

I'll try plugging it directly in to the wall next.

Thanks.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swing4thefence:
It's plugged in directly to the wall using the actual Sony charge/sync cable. Still nothing. No charging animation. But I do have a Red LED.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swing4thefence:
Now, No LED.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Actually, i tought it was battery fault, but you test it with second battery, so i don't think battery is the problem.

Power it normally with power button (and get that single vibration), then, when you connect it to PC, is it in fastboot or flashboot mode? Maybe back or search key is stuck (short-cutted, so it's like always pressed)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swing4thefence:
Tried that:

"Device Connected with USB debugging off"

"For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode."
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
That message is just because you flashed stock firmware. But it means it start to boot normally.

Unless you know how to open phone and clean it inside, it's maybe better to go service. Good news is that is working (partially) and maybe only flex cable is damaged/short-cutted
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
I would highly recommend to take apart the phone have all the pieces in a bag of rice for 24 hours.... let it absorb all the junk, or at the least take it apart and use aclohol pads to clean it all up... then let it sit and air out for a while, the reassemble... retest.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] i_like_chicken:
Maybe try taking it apart and look for something that might be damaged

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Streiff353:
I am having a similar problem

On Wednesday, instead of making chicken I was helping a friend move on a nice, hot day. I was sweating like a filthy pig and my phone was in my pocket and would not turn on when I tried to do so. That night I really didn't know what was wrong and the next morning I tried to turn it on and the red LED would flash 3 times in succession. I looked this up and they said "dead battery." Sure enough, I charged it and it took a minute for the LED to turn on, and as it charged it was red, then orange, then green. But even once fully charged, when I tried to turn it on it would only vibrate, but no screen action whatsoever. Note: the battery was at around 60% when the phone quit responding. The next morning it was dead. I have had the phone for a year now and the battery will last me at least 2 days if I don't play games and such.

The next morning, when using the flashtool it would go into blue LED'd fastboot and green LED'd flash mode. I flashed the original 2.3.3 firmware and still nothing. I used PC Companion and it said "Problem: The phone/tablet contains modified software that cannot be updated. Details: Sony Update Engine failure (error 2003)." I contacted Sony and I am still awaiting a response. So, on friday I'm ready to take this turd into the Verizon shop and I turn it on and wait about 30 seconds and I get the SE logo. It loads just fine. I set it up and try to update, but it won't allow me. I'm thinking, great, I'm stuck with 2.3.3... until I turn the screen off and try to turn it back on. And again, nothing. No response. So I'm thinking I will bring it in Saturday. I re-lock the bootloader in some attempt to hide that I rooted the phone, and flashed the 2.3.3 again. Note: I rooted my phone in December and have had no problems. I didn't flash any ROMs or Kernels. I am a simple man.

Saturday morning, after my phone has been off for 10 hours, it turns back on again. Same thing happens. Also, I spent a while on Thursday, Friday, and today trying to research and solve this problem. My brain hurts. But alas, I only had it off for 3 hours and it turned back on, and it did the same damned thing when it turned off. It simply doesn't turn back on. I don't know if it's the screen, or if there is moisture under there, and I haven't researched taking it apart yet. Any advice? Sorry if I'm butting in on your post, but your problem is so close to mine aside from my phone actually coming back to life, partially.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swing4thefence:
Ryan I think you're as screwed as I am. Still I wouldn't expect your phone to be ruined by Butt Sweat. Yeah, putting your phone in your hip pocket to help someone move is a bad idea but I would expect Mechanical damage, not moisture damage.

At this point I'm thinking of just putting it up on Ebay as As is/For parts to see what I can get out of it. It's painful to think of giving up my sweet playstation phone but looking at it logically, in the year that I had it I only used the playstation controller 4 times.

The question I have is how to be sure that all of my personal data is off the phone since I can't boot it to verify.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Since you manage to flash stock firmware, all data is erased. Erase sd card on pc with some adaper, if you want to sell that sd card along your parts
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Streiff353:
Yeah, I figured it was mechanical, but I have a heavy duty trident case and I'm only assuming it was the butt sweat. This morning I tried to turn it on and nothing happened, so I said screw it and brought it back to Verizon. My main fear of bringing it back was them seeing that it was rooted and not being able to swap it out. But alas, the guy behind the desk just processed it, dropped my phone on the floor, hahaha, then set it up for me to get a replacement. It is under a year that I have had it, and I'm only paying for expedited shipping. I wish you the best of luck.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartmw:
Hahahahahahahaha!!!! :D

You need to open it and replace ribbon connecting dispay with board.

I fallen with my phone to river (look for my posts she is alive after swimming), I removed battery on site by stripped down after back home. For me that ribbon started falling appart. I had same symptoms, pushed power button and feeling vibration, sometimeswhen reconnected I had whole white screen.

Bought that ribbon on e-bay, replaced and all working fine.

Good luck!!!

[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] gsmyth:
Use a root file explorer to copy the files in the zip to the corresponding audio folder under system/media. Or flash the zip in recovery to replace the stock ones.
[Galaxy S 4 Themes and Apps] Agent:
Use the zip file and flash it with CWM or TWRP. It's the easiest and safest way to do it

Just wondering if one of you flash-a-holics can test this rom and report back, its a beta, though it runs pretty good on the t-mo s4, I need to see if loki works and if somebody has an ir blaster app besides watchon, make sure irda works.

Its at&t but I assume it will work on the Canadian version too.

Thanks,

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Noobla_Khan:
Can't believe i'm the first one to bite.

OK so I quickly tested phone, gps, headphones(google music), camera and youtube and all are working as expected. I downloaded 2 IR blaster apps, one did not support my tv(sharp) and the other I could not get to work so not sure there. I will see if I can find another IR app to try.

Everything seems really snappy and the theme is pretty cool. Keep up the good work!

EDIT: I see we got halo and pie controls along with a host of other settings for tweaking things, everything I tried seems to be working as expected.

EDIT 2: Forgot to mention, flashed from OUDhs recovery so not sure if that invalidates the loki test.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] toxicpaulution:
A good way to test your IR is just use the apparently but if you face another camera at the IR diode and you can see it light up when you press a button then it means it works. If the light doesn't light up at all then it doesn't work.

I shall test this on Sunday :) love the collective, ran it all the way back on my inspire :) looking forward to seeing how well you put it out here :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] wonner:
I'll be testing this today. I'm a big fan of all The Collective's work since the Captivate days on to the i777.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] Noobla_Khan:
So I tried another IR app and I still can't seem to get it to work. Tried on my TV, cable box and receiver. The app had the identical cable box listed but still no go.

Going to load a stock based rom and test out the app as I have never actually used IR on this phone.

EDIT: Found out nothing wrong with the IR app or my phone, works fine on a stock based rom.

Ok thanks, its working fine on the S4 for t-mobile so I'll dig in and see whats up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dihnekis:
So I tried following the guide at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2195283.

Got to the step where I try to get TRWP on the phone through Odin, but instead of Pass I get Fail. Re-partition was unchecked.

Kies was running in the background also trying to connect to the phone and I really hope that didn't mess it up. I didn't notice. Right now the phone is just sitting in download mode, I'm not sure what I should do at this point.

I have a T989 running on 4.1.2, everything stock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] meekrawb:
Re-download TWRP and try again.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dihnekis:
the spam protection on this forum is absolutely atrocious, i couldnt reply to you with a quote because it thinks I'm a spambot.

Well I held down the power button on the phone and it turned off, then booted properly. This has scared me off from rooting, the guide just doesn't explain what is happening enough in each step and I'm not comfortable just blindly following a guide where something like this has already gone on. I followed the guide perfectly, something went wrong and I don't know why.

If you can suggest a bomb-proof guide that is updated to apply directly to a T989 on 4.1.2 I might try again, but at this point it's just not worth the risk.

Thanks though!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] gc84245:
Could be due to kies running. A lot of guides specifically say to not have it running at the same time.

Sent from XDA app
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] meekrawb:
You probably can't quote because you have less than ten posts. That's the only reason I can think of for it to do that.

If you can get into download(Odin) mode (turn phone off, then hold volume up+down+ plug in usb)and flash the file I posted it should work. After that, just boot into TWRP recovery(turn phone off then hold volume up+ power button until you feel vibration then let go of power button) and click on reboot and then system and TWRP will ask if you want to install SU. Slide the slider to the right and you will be rooted.

If you have more questions just ask. It's not as hard as it sounds.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dihnekis:
Ok thanks for the help (you too meekrawb). I'll try again with the more recent TWRP and no kies running. If it works I will tell the author of the guide to include a note to not have kies running.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] dihnekis:
Update: Root was successful following guide. I had to use the open source superuser and the TWRP 2.5 though

Your phone has a simlock if your carrier locks the phone so you can only use the sim your carrier provides. If you unlock it (ask your carrier or try Wotan server) it could be your rooting status may change :)

Why should he be rooted? The rooting status has nothing to do with root, but with the bootloader ;)

Its a dump from the Dev Phone and is made for the Dev phone. But see post #2 ;c)

The ROM is NOT loki'ed!! If you dont understand what that means then dont download it!

This is pretty much an identical base to the Standard phone. I dont believe there is any advantage to this unless you have a Dev Phone!

Hit Thanks! Its free!​

Flash the modules attached.

Once again, these instructions are for people who are going to ignore me and try to flash this to the standard phone.

If you are on a Dev phone just flash and go...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lancem71:
Is this what you will be basing CR 2.0 off of? I have the itch to flash but all the warnings above say not to. 1.6.5 is running solid for me but the itch is there. Damn.....see how your mind loves playing tricks?!?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
Its the same thing as the regular phone but its a newer build by three weeks.

Its just as bloated.

Read post #2 to understand how to flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] lancem71:
I see that but how would I get back to regular loki if needed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
You dont understand how Loki works. It just modifies the boot.img of the ROM file. So your not really changing Loki... Its this ROM was not created with the loki patch.

The patch that I linked to is a file that signs the boot.img with the loki signature tick. The Dev Phones dont need this because they are unlocked.

So if someone wants to run this Dev Phone ROM (which I know they will) they just need to falsh the proper modules (because of a slight difference in radios) then flash the loki patch because it will loki the boot.img which is part of the ROM.

I dont know if that made it more confusing or less... lol :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Scott:
File is up!

If Anyone wants the odex version let me know. I may post if the demand is high enough.

If you want to go back to "regular" loki you just flash which ever ROM has it.
