S4 mini infinite boot loop

[orangecat]

I have a Samsung galaxy S4 mini and it is stuck in a infinite boot loop. I was using my phone this morning to play Grand theft Auto:SA and check some stuff and all was good then I got in the car to go somewhere and i tried to unlock my phone only to discover the touch screen was not responding. I put the phone to sleep a few times then the screen would not come on. The 2 led buttons beside the home button came on but the phone would not turn the screen on. i restarted the phone and attempted to boot it but it got stuck in a infinite boot loop. I can't plug the phone into my computer and recover the firmware because the phone wont boot enough for the kies software to detect it.

 

Anyone know of something i can do to fix this?

 

EDIT: It wont even enter recovery mode.

sounds like GTA stressed it a bit too much and it went pop....

 

There are many many many people with the S4 range who get the "stuck in boot loop" issue and have to get sent replacments

(two of my mates in college have both had to do it, meanwhile im on but i am on a custom kernal/recovery/ROM)

 

 

If you are into phone moding and ROM's etc check if ODIN will find it

I think you might be right maybe it overheated or something.

Have you tried to connect is to a PC and use the samsung KIES software to reset to factory?

i dont know much about this but, when you turn it on hold Lock screen, Home and volume up button for about 10 seconds and it may go into "download mode" or something like that.

if you get into that you can try to root your phone and it MAY fix it.
