on pressing power button it asks password so when i start entering it shows only numeric words NOT ALBHABECTS that screws up me totally

They will replace the motherboard. You have nothing to lose. You can ask samsung to give a phone for some time before the repairs is completed

Sorry bro but you're inability to read through sticky threads or even ask questions has failed you here. You simply have yourself to blame here
There are two ways I know however:
1 Send it to Samsung repairs, they will never know what actually happened. Your motherboard will be replaced.
2. Change your motherboard on your own or with a third-party repair centre. It's faster but maybe expensive.

Then I think Samsung repairs is the only option. You got to be smart too. If you present your case well, they should give you a smaller Android phone to manage, while your phone is undergoing repairs.

I have hard bricked my galaxy ace while i was in recovery mode( Rom Manager 4.0). i was trying to overclock it with CM7 Overclock but it got aborted, so i didnt persist with it n was getting out of the recovery mode when it suddenly switched off and till now now powering on. i tried to get in download mode but not able to. will usb jig be able to help me get in downloading mode?
i had the same problem too.you can't do anything by yourself,you need to go to an service.

Voila....Nice work..People just dont learn...First of all,I am sorry if i sound rude
Good work bricking your phone with ROM MANAGER..ROM Manager DOES NOT support ACE...There has been many posts regarding this but PEOPLE dont learn,do they..
Theres no rescue...A brick with rom manager is irrepairable..Some people were lucky though,they could get into download mode,but sadly,you are not...
Take it to your nearest service center
EDIT:I forgot to tell...THIS IS DEVELOPMENT THREAD NOT BRICK THREAD..GENERAL FORUMS IS THE BRICK THREAD
don't panic, mate. try to use a USB Jig first; DIY if deemed necessary! then if all goes well, then flash away
did you try this?

dont mess your phone much
you not read noob guid as rom manager brick ace if you run stock rom without cwm
anyway go to service centre tell its not turn on after factory reset
most of us get it live back from service centre but dont tell you use root or any thing
just tell its happen after factory reset

I agree!! I hard bricked my Ace once.. and nothing switched on. So all i did was take it to the service center, with a sad face and tell them that it suddenly switched off and stopped working.
When they asked what i was doing i simply said i was playing a game and it stopped. What is the game? NFS Shift (coz its quite laggy anyway)
And all they said was ''Alright sir, its a hardware faliure, i think its a motherboard short. We will have it replaced. Will have it for you in three working days.''
Act noobish and DONT say anything Smart!
They have no way of checking for Root/custom roms coz it wont switch on
***IMPORTANT - retain sad face until you exit service center! then go to the middle of the road and jump for joy (yes i did)

No they didn't charged me......my ace was bricked due to rom manager......they changed my phones motherboard ........I told them I was playing suddenly screen went off.......
$π®@£
I Will Not Charge You for pressing thanks.
I too fell in the trap of Rom Manager. I wasn't aware of the fact that ACE is not supported by ROM MANAGER.
I have been trying all methods // Download mode, Button combinations... Odin did recofnize it once but was stuck on 'set connection'... so I tried it again, but it didnt recognize it again.
Hence, now I am forced to take it to Service Centre. Would post my experice too once my ACE returns...
Thanks for the post guys.. this thread really helped..
Cheers !!

Lol, with me was easier, after two days that I had bought my Ace, I updated it to an europe Gingerbread firmware, but my Ace is a brazilian model, so, a few things started to happen, screen flickering, random shutdowns, 3G wasn't working. All I did was taking my phone back to my carrier store (the place where I bought the phone) and I told that the screen was flickering a lot. I wasn't into Android on that time, I really thought it was broken.
The phone was completely stock, the carrier customizations weren't there anymore, the language wasn't the right one. The girl who was helping noticed that my phone was a bit different from the others, but she said "no problem, we will send it back to Samsung" and then she gave me a new phone with the box and everything. Lol.

A friend of mine did that. He broke the mic on his phone with compressed air... Then he hardbricked his phone (i think it was LG optimus 2X, but maybe something else) and paid a little extra for SGS2.
Edit: I've installed dozens of custom roms and tweaks on my ACE. Never have i even gotten a bootloop (i've had some on other phones).. The main thing is to FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS and if there arent any than you should google a bit to find out if what you want to do works or not.
finally my O1 died,got stuck while flashing orignal v20c and the phone not starting at all so is there any chance to bring back life in it or if i give it to service center is there any probability that they can find that i was trying something fishy ??

Aww the main reason for this I guess is cos your phone did not have sufficient charge n so it died off while in emergency mode!

my advice for you is to tell them that the phone turned off because it ran out of battery,you plugged the charger but nothing happened so you decided to come to warranty.

I was flashing my O1 20C firmware, then mi usb cable moved a little, and disconnected, the flash stoped and the phone didn´t respond, so I unplugged, the O1 was on a yellow screen and I removed the battery, when I tried to turn it on it never did again, I taked it to my carrier, I said "it turned it off and never came back" and they gave me a new one.
If your phone is not turning on anymore you should say goodbay to him, I tried everything and nothing worked.

hi i have hard bricked my sgs2, it happened while i was restoring a rom from rom manager and my battery died. what i need to know is whether its worth trying a jig because from what i have read ,if the damage is in the emmc chip its un recoverable. and yes i have tried putting recovery mode and download mode but the phone is comlpetely dead , i have two batterys and a desk charger so i know that the battery is ok.. is it worth buying a jig and waiting for it to arrive just to find it wont work or do i put it straight in the shop.. the question is will a flat battery during a restore damage the emmc chip or is it recoverable in anyones opinion. thanks in advance guys............UPDATED ON MY LAST THREAD
Well since there is no such thing as a "soft brick" there is no such thing as a "hard brick". Your device is just "bricked".
Yes its probably worth getting a jig, they cost about £1 of ebay or you could even make your own so why not?
If it is your chip or bootloader then the device is most likely screwed and you will need to send it away for a JTAG or maybe mobo replacement.

Well, if you used triangle away to remove the yellow triangle and reset the flash counter, they wont know whether it was rooted or not. Plus, in a hardbrick, they cant access anything, so you're safe anyways.

It has happened the same to me,from rom manager,worst apk ever.
If your device is under warranty Samsung must fix it for free,they cannot proove that was rooted.
I was afraid for the same reason but in a hour they had fixed it with the last ics update,they dont asked me anything, the evening the device was root again..

when you revive your phone or get another please, run away from ROM MANAGER. that app maybe good for other phones but it's very deadly on our phone.

I know there are plenty of threads like this out there but the reason I am making a new one is because I am looking for a fix which I have not been able to find so far.
Last night my phone was working perfectly fine with no problems. This morning I woke up to a warm dead phone that doesn't start, go into download or recovery mode, different batteries doe not work. I want to be able to get this phone working exactly how it was without wiping it or cleaning the data out I want all my apps there, pics, contacts etc to be there in the phone exactly how it was before it died for no reason.
Is there anything I can do to make the phone start working again?
(I have already taken the phone to samsung with no use)
Sounds like sudden death syndrome..

I will get a replacement because it's still under warranty but I want to be able to get this phone started back to how it was so that I can save a few things. Is this possible? Why is this happening to the galaxy s3's?

Two reasons why we have dead SGS3 One a problem with some motherboards and reason two is users mistakes .
If its dead its dead end of story .

Can you clarify us on what firmware version were you running? Thanks.
First off al sorry for my english
I flashed the stock galaxy s3 firmware on my phone.
When i updated it and restored my apps from my backup
the screen turned blank en shut down the phone.
when i restarted the phone it only shows me white and gray stripes.
I can put it into download mode but can't do anything in odin because it fails (problem with cache partition)
So someone got an idea how to fix it ?

If you've just had your screen replaced It could be a faulty screen.
Take it back to where you got it replaced and tell show them, they should replace it again.
As for Odin not flashing and the phone just shutting down and becoming unresponsive, sounds like Sudden Death Syndrome.

Thanks for answering!
but it isn't the screen because it worked the last two days fine on my custom rom.
The original firmware worked fine aswell
until i was downloading the update and restoring my apps.
I can connect it with odin now en the phone isn't shutting down anymore.
but the screen will be on with the whit and gray stripes.
whats a Sudden Death Syndrome?
and what can i do about it?

This is why people should inform themselves about rooting and stuff before actually doing it. Imagine how easily you would be able to fix ur phone if u had a custom recovery right now....

I had informed myself.
My phone had custum recovery when my phone was rooted.
but i have flashed the original firmware on odin today.
After that my phone is unrooted, so my custom recovery is also gone.
Otherwise i could factory reset in a sec.
I have tried to root my phone again so i can use custom recovery.
but i will fail on odin..
and now i'm stuck!
Only opertunity i see is to replace my screen again for the cracked screen because i have insurance.
And the insurance company will send it back to samsung and replace the screen.
en factory reset my phone.
but it will cost me a little bit money because i got to pay for somehting called own risk...

Wellll.if u got warranty there is a little thing called fu**** up ur ohone as much as you can and destroying completely it's internal storage before sending it over to samsung for repairs. That way they wont be able to find out if it's ever been rooted and flashed (they have a flash counter, sad, i know) and will not onlt have to replace screen, but fix a system VERY difficult to fix if not completely damaged. And since its not a hardware component damage, they cant complain.
Result? they just send yku a completely new phone for free.
And before replying it wont work.....have a little faith in who KNOWS

I thank you!
Now got the following question
how to **** up my phone?
and is it normal when my phone i not rooted that i don't see the flash counts in dowload mode?
And samsung has to make it whenever i want because i got insurance (i pay for it every month)
So when my phone is broken and i call them they must come and get my phone within 4 hours en every country in Europe
But i was more phone iff i can repair it myself.
Because i'm bored all the time^^

Dunno about flash counter thingy, but if u wanna fix the phone urself and feel a pro, best method is fooling samsung
Plus what fun is there if you fix ure phone with xda's help? Try it yourself...if it doesnt work just go to the sammy team u pay and have em fix it up....
Just out of curiosity: how much do you pay each month?

I pay ProaAssist like 11 euro's a month
ProAssist send them back to samsung for repairs
For the 11 euro's i got covered for falling, water, fire or of it get stolen.
Don't got insurance for firmware problems so that's the problem.
but the last 3 times i had repaired my phone because the screen had a crack
they've wiped everything and did a factory reset.
So that's why i want to put it back the broken screen that i have replaced 2 days ago
I didn't wanted to wait for 3 weeks to get my phone back with a new screen^^
It took me like 5 minutes so it was alot faster

It's not totally a waste of money.
The new screen part costs here like 236 euro's with repair.
I got my galaxy s3 for like 11 months and the screen cracked 4 times..
so you can do the math.

In Holland it is normal to have a insurance iff you got a good smartphone.
And why would i wait 3 weeks minimal
Iff everyone can replace it by his self in 5 minutes?
it's all a click in system and so easy
and i had one new part at home that i have bought in China.
so why wouldn't i use it?
so you would bring your car with a broken muffler to the garage when you got a new muffler at home
and you can fix it yourself?

Thats a users choice though not every user throws money at insurance and prefer to stand the risk themselves .

Only problem with that is that self fixes voids future warranty and insurance if spotted .
