Note:
One of the most annoying moments that our younger generations would surely hate is having their mobile phones bricked. For those who are quite curious, the word brick is defined as a not-so-big rectangular object or something that may commonly look like a block. Mobile phones do look like thin blocks from time to time. Bricks are typically made of clay, and mobile phones are typically made of pollution-contributing plastics.
Bricks cannot be used to call or send SMS to your loved ones while mobile phones can be. However, if your mobile phones would not power ON or boot anymore, they can be used to build houses like bricks. This should give some curious readers idea on how the word "brick" is applied in terms of electronics. The Non-Technical Technical Support decided to add this article on this crappy website because one of my colleagues' Samsung Galaxy Young S5360 got semi-bricked and approached me for some quick fix.
Below is a sample screen of what you might likely see if your Samsung Galaxy Young S5360 is semi-bricked.
