I dont know whats wrong, but just because its rooted, does not mean you cant return it. If its a hardware issue it will still be covered. But it sounds like maybe a bad battery

No prob. I would try stopping by your local carriers store and see if the have a battery laying around to test, or it u know someone else who has the phone try theirs. If its not the battery, post back and we'll go from there

I have heard this issue alot on xda, and i'll say its pretty much bricked, if you can't turn it on or get into the bootloader or recovery tmobile/wind/htc wouldn't be able to, other people with the same issue said they got it replaced with no problems, so you got nothing to worry about

Buy a new battery.

OMG another one
Its not bricked dude, its a battery failure. See my thread, I've got the same issue, its solved by replacing the batttery..

You can call up HTC North America [email protected] 866-449-8358 if you are in US, they will ship you the battery free of cost.
When I called them up they asked me to ship the phone back, however I had also had unlocked the bootloader voiding the warranty, so I took a chance and told them I tested the phone at local tmo center it works with replacement battery (even though I hadn't)...they said no need to ship the phone then...we'll have the battery sent out to you...and it arrived in 3 business later although I had to wait quite long as there was weekend in between...
BTW what ROM/Kernel/recovery combo were you using before it died ?

We can't blame NRGZ's ROM for it, as its the most popular ROM for this phone and to my knowledge just the ROM can't cause such a bug, the kernel might (even i'm not sure for that but still)...can any devs (Adjust? ) give their opinion on it ?

[Q] Bricked my phone little help please

ok so i was running SH 3.9.1 and decided to go back to stock so i odined back to jfd and then tried to update with kies and now my phone will not even turn on anyone have any clue on what i need to do or if there is anything i can do
a)did you flash gingerbread bootloaders? If you so and you didn't flash back the froyo bootloaders before using keis your probally f***** up your phone. Need a jtag
b)if you didn't flash any bootloaders just call tmobile and tell them keis f***ed up your phone
c)you could just lie to tmobile and tell them keis f***ed up your phone
seconded... (holds up blank phone)
same issues here, odined JFD, all was working fine, went to update via Kies, and it completed, rebooted, and did not come up after waiting over a half hour
no lights, can't get to download or recovery modes..
Yes you need a jtag, I recently had the same problem. PM connexion2005 and he can hook you up for $50.

lol yeah i see that now and funny thing is i was actually coming from your rom EB.
The "Kies" effed up my phone has got to be the #1 over used excuse. Probably used more often then it actually does, but IT DOES! so its easy to get by with. I'd have to imagine in this situation its bootloader related. People should honestly fess up when they bork up their own device and pay the fee to get it jtaged. Just my 2cents.
As the old Chinese proverb goes:
"You break, You buy!"
I agree with you on that and it probably was my fault it messed up but im also broke otherwise i would of gone that route
one of these days there gonna catch on
Wow..... you guys.... bootloaders for vibrant are backward compatible..... even still.... you could have built a custom jig for $1.19, some scotch tape, and an old car charger. read the stickies yo.... I've had bad bootloader flashes at least 20 times now with odin and my cheap little jig has me back in dl mode in seconds.

Oh yea there is definitely a worse step than that screen. It's called NOTHING. Literally your phone is worthless at that point without a good JTAG technician. I see it over 100 times a month... . Not trying to be a smarty just letting you know that there are scenarios in which the JIG is worthless and you will need someone to JTAG there phone. Please remember me if it happens to you as I can fix that although I would never wish it upon you...

Your phone is alright. Take a breath and go in Sprint and download an ROM when one is available. You just installed the wrong stuff but its an easy fix. Might take days some time for a rom to come online though
Just return it to sprint when they get some in stock and get a new one.

Can you get the phone into download mode?
To do this, pull the battery out (to make sure the phone is completely off), plug it in, hold the volume-down and home buttons then turn it on while holding those buttons.
If you can get it into download mode, then it should be possible to reflash the proper firmware using Odin.
Or at least, that's how things went when I had my Samsung Vibrant. I've only owned my S3 for a day.

Sorry, you're qhsusb_dload (aka hard) bricked. I've spent about 3 days trying to fix mine after I bricked it flashing a kernel on a bad port of cwm. If I had a working S3 and another 3 days I might be able to un-hardbrick it, but yeah, will just be exchanging it as soon as they come back in stock.

Just take it to Sprint but don't tell em you was trying to download a custom rom.. Simple they probably don't know the issue yet until more people start taking they brick phones in because they tried to root..
I think you overpaid for your paperweight . Yes, I feel a little cruel for making a joke about someone who just lost $600, but you do still have a chance at exchanging it at Sprint. Bricking a phone is every custom rom users worst nightmare, but that's probably your best option. Good luck.
Same Probelm...Sort of
Yeah I did the same thing I think, tried to flash a kernel via cwm, said operation aborted...ok....so I reboot it and now it wont turn on, cant get it in download mode. Weird thing is though when i plug it in to my computer and hold down the power button, while nothing happens to my phone my computer will continuously make the connect disconnect sound like my phone is turning on for a nano second.
and if my phone is plugged in with battery out red charge light comes on, so I know something is going on in there.
any thoughts on how/if I can fix....
Yeah I may be a crook. But I would take the battery out and stick the headset in the microwave for about 3 seconds. You have insurance on it. Do what you got to do. They lie, cheat, and steal every chance they get.

Sorry, you're hard-bricked. As I mentioned in a previous post, your phone is in "qhsusb_dload" mode, which is a Qualcomm firmware flashing mode. If you look in your Device Manager, that's what you'll see your computer is detecting. There's absolutely nothing you can do at this point as no one outside Qualcomm/Samsung has the proper tools/files to recover from this state.

friend bricked his s3.....

Hello all, I was walking my friend through rooting his phone over Google talk. He rooted all went well a few days later he wanted to Rom it. He made a mistake and flashed the international omega Rom on his US ATT samsungi747. His phone is now dead. No way to get into recovery or download mode. Just dead. Bricked. What can I do to help him? As I am partially responsible cause I was helping him. I did not know much about the Rom he was flashing.
I was reading about a possible fix with a jig but can not find a jig for.the Samsung i747.
Please any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

A compatible jig may be your only solution if you can't get into download mode manually. A jig would force the phone into download mode, once in download mode you'd be able to flash the stock AT&T firmware through Odin.

If you didnt know a rom could brick a phone you shouldnt be flashing period. Theres always ALWAYS bold letters that says this may brick your phone an or we are not responsible if this breaks your phone... no one with there first android should be flashing till they know android smoothly... *sigh*
Usually 90% of the time your always able to get into recovery mode. From what I've read this only happens when flashing the omega Rom. People make mistakes.
I've rooted and rom'd 100s of phones, and never not been able to get back to recovery.

I understand telling him to read. And he did so for about a week. He succesfully used odin to root his phone. A few days later he said he wanted to Rom, and asked me how to do a proper back up with titanium backup. I ran him through the backup procedure.
I mean I totally thought that if he made it through the rooting procedure that he was good to go. Rom'ing has always been to me something fairly easy, and if something went haywire, just boot to recovery.
I've had people ask for help that flashed an incomplete or corrupted download, but have always been able to at least power the phone on, or at the very least have it recongnized in adb.
I have been reading and googling about a fix, but information seems minimal on this current circumstance. So I reached out to the community for advice.

can you boot into the bootloader to get into the recovery? i have flashed all the kernels here on top of each other without any issues....
p.s. incase you forgot, i believe it is hold volume down + power to get into the bootloader
When you install a kernel it replaces the one that was there.
That did not brick your device.
If you can get to recovery do a full wipe and flash a ROM
i doubt your bricked boss.. bricked is phone not turning on at all.. and charge light not coming on when u plug it in.. just a stright dead phone

Try running the Lazypanda unbricker, or the other Evo LTE unbricking tool. It might just be that it accidentally went into QHUSB mode even though nothing was wrong.
Did you check MD5 hash before flashing it? You should ALWAYS do this, I know it wont help now, but for the future. That ensures that the file is identical to what was uploaded. Also (and I know you're probably aware of this, but in case anyone else is reading) only flash files that are specific to our device. Another kernel for another device will most definitely brick you.
I would try to see if the HTC unbrick project helps you, otherwise if you have sprint insurance (not the fancy 11 dollar one) that covers software issues (4 dollars a month) will cover this since it is a software problem.

There are still precautions that shouldve been taken.
The kernel shouldn't even have it on the device, and if it was fastboot flashed he shouldve had seperate folders for each device

damn that sucks bro might be like way out there but did u try the lazy panda unbricker probaly wont work but its worth a try

[SGS3] very deep sleep and cant wake up

I am not sure this was posted or not, however if it has, please point me to the right direction as I am not able to find it.
Situation:-
Using the phone as per normal. It auto lock or manual lock it. Wanna unlock/wake up the phone it doesnt. This happened once in awhile not sure when as unable to determine the cause as sometimes running a game and I lock it and sometimes lock it without running anything i.e. back to home. To wake up, I reboot the phone by long pressing on/off button. Was using CheckRom ICS... And at one occurance the phone really died on me and unable to reboot no matter what I did. Sent in to SC and got back a new Motherboard.
Now it is happening again. Now in JB 4.1.2 (OmegaRom). The phone just fell in to a deep sleep and cant wake up unless I reboot the phone. I hope I dont get the forever slumber/sudden death situation again.
Anyone can give guidance or advise on how to check what is the matter or anyone having the same experience?
Flash back to stock and check if it occurs. If it does use triangle away and send it back in mate

Oh no... I like the phone and I hope I dont have to sell it off.... So I am hoping someone here woudl be able to help me out.... I am backing up nearly everyday with TiB....
Even I love my s3 but I love note 2 even more and I am buying a note 2....the main reason I am selling it is if it conk out one day here in India it's very difficult to claim warranty we really need to slug it out with Samsung India and I don't have the time or patience to do that...

happened to me too
I don't recall it happened to me while using stock touchwiz roms.
However, since I've moved to AOSP roms (first AOKP M1 and then JellyBam), it happened to me 3 or 4 times now.
Do you get it also on touchwiz roms? Which OmegaRom are you using?
Wich kernel are using my mates? Maybe that is problem, combination firmware and kernel...
Regards
using latest OmegaRom... as mentioned... first happened in CheckROm and even in Wanam...
Was using siyah kernel... so now testing Perseus and see wtr this happened or not...
Just happened when I have monster warlord running and locked it.. when I unlock... it happened again... must be something like not enuf ram or went into deep sleep... very strange indeed. Nevertheless change to Perseus to test out different kernel for now...

If u sell a broken phone,that is such a douchebag move no offence to u but really i wud feel sorry for the man u sold it..

Download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.vinagre.android.emmc_check&hl=en and post the screenshot. It might be SDS
Same happened with my phone. Go to see what it's up to and suddenly its not responding. The only option is to hold power down until it reboots.
It would also do it on in coming calls and managed to delete a text which arrived shortly before it froze.
Hoped upgrading to the latest firmware would help, didn't. Going without root, nope. Freezing apps in Titanium, still no joy.
Finally this morning I had enough and went for a full wipe. Very little installed but no problems since.
Would suggest doing the same, especially if you plan to sell the phone anyway.

Hi buddy, selling a dying phone at a good price and buying something u love even more is douche bag move....then I really petty ur retarded and douche bag thinking

Have the same problem with mine, using the latest wanam stock rom and every now and again the phone will either just restart or lock with the screen off (led notification will keep blinking however).
Just trying the official Vodafone rom now through Odin. If this doesn't solve it I think the phone will have to go back.
To note: issue appeared after installing some root apps. Notably adfree and beats drivers. Anybody else have either installed?

Please keep this on topic:
Seems like a common issue, I've now unrooted my phone and loaded stock 4.1.2 from Sammobile using odin, reset the binary counter, removed SD card and i'm still having crashes and hangs. Seems my phone is on the way out?

When did it happen? Was it around Wednesday last week? Just thinking that maybe an updated app or something?
I have now updated again using kies with the official 4.1.2. I have no problems with restarts when using the stock apps. I have however had issues with the google servers and now believe this to have been the main reason for the crashes earlier (Christmas new phone activation traffic?).
Out of interest, have you been running adfree or the beats audio driver? I had mine working all day yesterday, installed both and then the hangs started coming back again.
Also worth noting that adfree now states that a newer version is available when loading up, but non exists (that i know of?)

I am not selling it to some innocent 3 person I am exchanging it with note 2 by paying the difference amount at a local Samsung retail store (just sending back there own Frankenstein to them)
And about culture my friend I don't need a lesson from a person who doesn't even have the sensibility to understand that his comments can hurt others(u started It fIrst)..
As today Is my last day in the s3 forum I don't want to sign off on a bitter note so sorry if I have hurt u in anyway.

I can't say for sure, but around Wednesday isn't unreasonable.

I do run AdFree, and yeah, I saw the notice about the new version - it's a different app entirely... still called AdFree, uninstall the old one, and install the new one. Not sure why they did that.
I'm at a loss - I just reinstalled XELL4, and it's still doing it. Short of doing a full wipe and starting afresh (which I really can't be bothered with), I don't know what else to try. Was working fine up until now.
