Easiest way to make sure it's not a battery problem is just to buy a new one from ebay and eliminate the possibility.

But it sounds like an internal problem to me, not software related. You could try a wipe.

I did a factory reset ( I was on JB then) and didn't solve the issue. when the phone is connected to the charger it can go beyond the Samsung logo and the splash screen for a while but will turn off quickly. without a charger it will only show the Samsung logo and then turn OFF.

Can you go into recovery, plug the cable, and then power off the phone? leave it like that for few minutes.

I can go into the download mode but not recovery.... what does that mean???? Tried your other suggestion, but no luck...!!

Is your battery swollen if looking at the side and you say it will go past splash screen if plugged into charger so does that mean it will boot into the Rom if plugged in or does it just stay splash screen and also if not able to get into recovery could mean something happened with the kernel so flashing a fresh jb Rom with Odin maybe what you need. The problem with that is if your battery is bad it could cause more problems trying to flash anything with dead battery as in bricking the device. So you should start with new battery and let charge a few hours then see if your phone boots up if not then you could flash with pc Odin and go from there.

He should try kernel option you gave him, if everything else failed. I read around there were like 3 people with same situation. Maybe they used the same thing?

Search philz kernel, download one or two, and flash those in odin. Its a safe kernel, and powerful cwm.

He probably fixed by now. Hope so, for his own good.
