Samsung S4 MINI (i9195) wont power on - GSM-Forum

brybry92 · 09-23-2017, 03:56

Hello to all, I'm new on this forum, and I am panicking since a few weeks.
My phone (a Samsung S4 mini GT-I9195) has DIED all of the sudden. I was charging it one night, and the next day.... POOF it died. It won't turn on, it's all black screen, doesn't vibrate, PC doesn't recognize it... I've tried reloading the software and all but it doesn't work, as I said before, the PC doesn't recognize it. I'm seriously beggin' for help, I know it might not sound right, but I don't know what to do. This is the only phone I got in YEARS. And I can't seriously afford a new one.

Do you have any power supply or multimeter ?
If you have power supply connect with power supply and. Press the power button and check the Amp meter. If it's consuming more than 14mA that's dead boot
If it's taking full power means that's short circuit .

But you may need the tools like multimeter and power supply for check that.

Awww, hi. Thanks for replying, I don't have a multimeter

Any other way to check if it's dead or something?

No problem , did you try to enter download mode ?
Does it show something on device manager menu ? Com or modem on device manager ?
If it's recognize let me know the details or screen shot .
If it doesn't do anything better to give to a mobile technician.

All the best

I can't go to download mode, the phone won't even turn on.
Device Manager shows up (sometimes, not all the time) the device as QHSUSB_DLOAD (or something like that).
I've already tried the debrick method (found in this forum on another thread) but... no luck :/ nothing happened.
I can't get my phone to a mobile technician because of money issues

I can't get a new phone even if it's low specs...
