So my Samsung Galaxy Y unexpectedly turned off yesterday. When I try to turn it on it just turns on until the Samsung Galaxy Y GT-s5360 or the welcome screen but turns off again so I tried three times before it turned on. I was able to use the phone for like 5 minutes then it turned off again and from then on I can only turn it on until the Samsung Galaxy Y Welcome screen for 5 seconds only. Take note only 5 seconds or less than 10 seconds. This is not boot loop I am sure for the phone turns off. When I try the volume up + home button + switch button I cannot do anything with it since it turns off in less than 10 seconds. I've been asking around other sites and people told me that this might be because of the internal memory and I think they are correct because my phone has been saying internal memory almost full but I simply uninstall apps. But if this is true then how am I able to delete files if I cannot even access my phone. I dont wanna go to a technician and have it reformated because I would be paying much and I have important files that cant be deleted. Please help me. I need your reply thanks.

are ur important files on sd card or internal memory?
also the best choice is to take it to the service centre

Maybe it's just a small problem. Have you tried charging it? 'coz the battery might be down. If it still dosen't work, see if you can enter odin mode and flash stock firmware.

@Jeannuel I cant enter that mode because my phone shuts off between 5-10 seconds. and the link you gave made my cellphone turn on but its still the same.

@sadish.garg its in the internal memory

1. download odin packages from docky73's thread.
2.Remove everything from your
phone (SD card, sim, battery).
3. Plug your phone into your
computer WITHOUT the battery.
4. Press and HOLD vol. up and
vol. down.
5. As you are HOLDING these
buttons, reattach your battery.
6. You should be in Download
Mode.
7. Unplug phone from USB
now flash phone via odin...
it may work:confused:

the same problem occurred with me 3 times...the first 2 times what i did was remove the battery for 1 minute or so..then insert it and start charging the phone...after a few hours the charging screen appeared automatically and then i could access the phone...the 3rd time it happened..the above process didint work and i had too take it to the samsung service center and repair it there...when i asked them what the problem was..theys said it happens when u update something although that wasnt true
so finally my advice to u..try the process i tried first..if still it doesnt work..l got no choice but too take ie to the service center...and dont worry they wont charge u anything if your cell is in the warranty period even if its rooted as they hardly bother about it

First of all, is the battery charged??
Keep the device switched off and leave it for charging for atleast an hour.

system hardware will damage if you turn on and off ur phone many times....the main problem is the system hardware or the battery not the memory

    I'm just playing some music with my samsung galaxy y when it suddenly turned off. I tried to turn it on but after about 5 seconds it turned off again. i thought that the battery is dead so i charged it for almost 3 hours. after charging, I pressed the power button but the same happened, i tried to turn it on many times but my phone keeps on turning off after about 5-8 seconds. I watched some video tutorials and all of them talks about "boot loop" or being "stuck in the samsung logo". Still, I tried them. I've already downloaded Odin, Stock Rom and Samsung galaxy Y USB cable Driver but the problem is that my phone is not being recognized by the computer for a long period of time as it turns off after a few seconds. it turns off even when it is in the download mode. I think my case is different from boot loop. I really don't know what to do so please help me. Thanks. . .

    You have a power button fault - its stuck in - either try popping it back out so it's not stuck in or if you can't you will need a new power button - but a bit of wriggling & prising should free it
