Hi,
While i was trying to reset flash/binary counter, i click reset counter n after some process, phone switched off.. i waited a little while to reboot but it didn't. then, i switched on by myself but when samsung galaxy logo appears, it died.. i tried many times but couldn't go after that.. then i tried to boot in recovery mode but it also didn't worked. thankfully i could boot in download mode and had root with odin [CMW 6.4] to run recovery mode n it worked. but after rooting my s3, i switched on n see pin code screen.. then, i realized the main issue "my touchscreen is not working" !! i don't know how it happen but phone looks fine, rom is working well but touchscreen is not working.
At first, i boot in recovery mode n wipe all data (factory reset), cache n dalvik cache and with a great hope, restarted my s3 but still had same issue. then, i remember i had a nandroid backup n i boot in recovery mode again. i restored it n restarted. but even i get back my previous settings, touchscreen still doesn't work. i can see wallpaper n then pin code screen but i can't do anything. it doesn't respond my touch n screen goes black. only vol. up/down, home n power buttons working. i guess
don't know to solve this mess. my s3 is a SHV-E210K n i got 4.1.1 JB. There're much people who use this device so that i couldn't find any solution. if somebody can help me to get out from this trouble, gonna be appreciated.
waiting your help guys, thanks in advance.
i think we already have 4 with identical case, all you can do now is to go to samsung service center for warranty, i think the touchscreen panel or digitizer had been damage. check the triangleaway thread in gs2 forum they report their problem and solution there.
Have u tried to flash the param.tar with odin?

my mistake as i did not see where you live, i think not the actual touch panel was damaged but some other electronic parts in panel assembly has been damaged, i also waiting and hoping for possible software fix before i go to service center for warranty. but i think it is possible, do you know the emmc brick problem caused by flashing firmware that is a hardware damaged by software.
other guy with e210k in another thread already went to samsung service center for repair and they replaced the touchscreen.

hi,
today, i get my phone back n didn't repaired cos they offered to change led screen + touch screen n it costs around 400$.. so that, i didn't but there's no way to fix it with a software.. i'm looking for a cheaper solution
do u think they will samsung gonna accept to repair your phone with warranty? cos if they see that u rooted your device, it's out of warranty..
i think you have no other choice then, you can't revive dead electronic parts by software, just take your chance maybe they will not notice it, just tell them that your touchscreen is not functioning. just went to samsung service center this morning for my s3 e210k repair and they replaced my front cover and display assembly to a new one and it is running smoothly again. lucky me my counter is 0 and status is official that why didn't pay any charge.

yeah, you are really lucky n im convinced that i can't revive it with any software. i will send my device to warranty but still couldn't reset my counter. everything is official on odin mode but just counter says yes (9 counts). i connect usb mouse to my device via on the go usb cable n control all functions with mouse. i tried to use triangle away again but when it needs to reboot the device, samsung logo goes dead or goes crazy with different colours. everytime, i install CWM again to get back my device.
pls, someone tell me how to reset counter with triangle away! i created a folder in sdcard directory which named "triangleaway" n put there triangleaway v2.3.6 apk n param.tar then run the application. but it doesn't reboot the device, goes dead. don't know how to use param.tar file. what should i do for a proper reset? i need to reset countern then i will flash official firmware to send my device to warranty.

i think you cannot reset counter now as your touchscreen is not working, you need to use triangleaway apk to reset counter. try your luck if you have usb jig to reset it maybe it will work for you.
i think the best you can do now is to flash stock rom and send it to a/s and pray that they will not check the counter.
Don't try your like. It can be done. Has every one of you forgot that sgs3 supports a wired mouse? Just get a USB adaptor and conect a mouse to your phone. Than you can start triangle away.

No you still have chance of resetting counter as you can use usb otg, dont use triangleaway 2.36 again after flashing stock rom and root instead use triangleaway 2.2 to 2.30 it will work im sure as i use 2.2 without softbrick.

Hello everyone,
I've just bricked my S2.
It won't start at all.
I've flashed I9100XXLP1_I9100OXALP1_OXA and tried to root it with cf-root-sgs2_xx_oxa_ki3-v4.1-cwm4
After the root it won't start up, it was showing SAMSUNG and the yellow triangle with a ! in it.
I've tried to re flash the XXLP1 and it won't start flashing, so I pulled the data cable.
And now it won't start.
PLS HEEEELP!!!
I'm from Romania, maybe someone from Bucharest can help me.
It is not mine, and the owner is anxious to see it, I just wanted to help her unlock it, and..... (
pls help!!
thx a lot!!!
try a usb jig but seems like its a complete brick if it will not turn, needs jtagging by the sounds of it,
can you go into download mod? flash stock firmware in download mod via odin by press volume down +home button + power.

1) You didn't read instructions... Why would you try to root a XXLP1 >> ICS << Rom with a KI3 >> Gingerbread << CF-Root ? It states in Chainfire's thread to find the matching letters and root it with the corresponding kernel... You DIDN'T bother to read.
2) Like the poster above said, try entering download mode, and flashing stock ROM again... If you can't, read >> 4)
3) You can try with a USB Jig, though i doubt it will help...
4) Seems like it's completely bricked, probably will need jtag repair, or maybe you can get lucky with warranty + samsung repair service
5) Learn to read...

@gr4ndm4st3r_bl4ck
yes, my bad
do you think that if I send it back from where I bought it and lie them that it didn't start at all, and that I didn't do anything they will replace it?
it is worth it to try or they will figure it out?
thanks
You could send it into your carrier/Samsung for repair & they might repair it anyway, but there's a much greater chance they'll charge you for it.
A jig is very unlikely to work, but for the sake of a few dollars is worth a try.
Do a search for JTAG repair on here/Google (here's one to get you started). This will probably be cheaper than having it repaired by Samsung/whomever does their repairs in your country.
Which option you choose is obviously up to you.
As MistahBungle said, you could try taking it to samsung and they might repair it under warranty,no questions asked...then again,they could charge you more likely than not... If that happened to me I would take the phone to samsung as i don't trust those shady guys doing jtag repairs... they fu** something up, you lose warranty, you get left without a phone...my 2 cents

Hey guys.
I made a stupid error last night when I tried going from ICS CM9 back to ICS STOCK LPQ.
I forgot to wipe data and just wiped cache and dalvik cache.
The connection broke whilst flashing through ODIN and now I have a blank black screen and the phone won't turn on...((( (It does technically as when I try pressing the on button later on the phone would get hot - meaning its on but BLACK SCREEN)
I have tried taking the battery out for hours and putting it back in...nothing is working.
I don't know what to do...I'm in uni where I have fast wifi. Please help. Any advice would be grateful
EDIT:
Ok.
So usb jig arrived this morning. Ripped it open. Popped my sgsII from charger (fully charged I think!) took battery out - 15 secs
placed battery back in.
Inserted USBJIG. . .
. . .
. . . . BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH
Nothing....Still the same. No screen activity...sad...
only way is either JTAG or Samsung service center right?
I used to have yellow exclamation mark + 4 counts....but they can't see anything so they won't know right?
or did the usbJig work but just the fact that I can't see anything on the screen??
...sad I hated seeing noobs flashing phones improperly and crying when it got softbricked....well even though mine is a straight hardbrick i still feel sad....noob
update.
I've taken it to SSCentre on tuesday. I called them yesterday and they said they couldn't fix it over there and had it shipped somewhere else...is that bad?
it could take upto 2 weeks!!!!!!
I rememeber the engineers working on my friends Galaxy S last year and they didn't have to send it to somewhere else. (he had the soft brick 3 yellow logo icons) and didn't have the version where the download/recovery mode didn't work) The engineer just flashed it with latest stock sgs firmware (ignoring that csc was orange lol)
Maybe my flash was so impeccable I fried the motherboard? I'm one kick ass bricker....

If you can get into download mode then there is still hope. If you can't then your only option is either warranty repair of Jtag service. If download mode then works then just reflash using Odin.
You flash i9000XXJVU to your i9100 phone? So you need JTAG or do service. Your bootloader is totally dead

Didn't even notice that XXJVU was an i9000 firmware.
To OP: Yup nothing to do, but send it in for repairs.
yeah sorry not JVU LPQ (I was getting mixed up with firmwares)
Yeah phone not going into download or recovery mode.
I think when I press the power button the phone does turn on but I get nothing but black screen....(the phone warms up)
So shall I order a JTAG to flash? or take it to repair centre?
Will they know I've been flashing this thing to death? Counter is on 4 at the moment..... so worried!

JTag is not Samsung warranty its a paid for service .
or take it to repair centre?
Will they know I've been flashing this thing to death? Counter is on 4 at the moment....
.
Warranty is void with custom rom root or rom counter above zero .
Will they know yes counter is on 4 .
Will they ignore it and put it through as warranty they may but dont count on it .
USB jig would be the starting point .
That fails you could go to warranty repair if thats rejected then pay for JTag repair .

if you have adb maybe you could try:
1. Connecting your device to PC while turned off,
2. CMD > adb devices
* If you see your device connected, proceed with:
adb reboot recovery or adb reboot bootloader
* If you don't see any device connected, try googling for qhsusb_dload driver for your device, and after you install them (and maybe a couple of PC restarts) repeat step 2
3. if you manage to get to recovery, i hope you have your nandroid backup so you could restore them.
my HTC sensation 4G had this situation few days ago, couldn't go to recovery/bootloader, blanked out when turned on and had fever
i fixed it using those steps, i wish i could remember where i got the qhsusb driver thingy from.. i'll let you know when i remember.
edit: it might work on S2, or might not.. i don't know this will help or not, but you could read adb/fastboot/bootloader/android 101, maybe you could get something from there

The bootloader death thing is not 100% true. When I first got my phone, (when there wasn't any rom for it) I tried flashing a I9000 rom. I was so stupid and luckily it didn't break my phone. After the flashing it turned on and stayed on bootlogo.
It was a miracle for me!

Hi
so I bougth this phone from a dude from college it was very cheap he says to me that the signal of the phone does not work.. and I believing that was only a locked phone I bouth the phone..
so here are the symptoms:
- Phone does not got signal but outside on some parts.. but only reach the second bar if you attempt to make a call the phone goes black and it needs to reboot.
- phone its not imei blocked
- phone its not sim blocked
the phone got some drop damages on the left corner of the screen but touch and everything else works..
phone info:
CM9 4.04
i9100uhkg4
if there is more information that I can provide please let me know
My advice. Get your money back. Yes. I'm serious.
Edit - Or...Go back to stock firmware & see if you have the same problems. If you do, definitely get your money back.
I had a smilliar prob here is what to do
Wipe cache and dalvik and factory reset then Flash stock 2.3.5 gingr bread
After u do that flash ice cream sandwich 4.0.3 lpQ stock
And ur prob will be fixed inshallah
If i helped please press thanks
Very cheap ??? cheap enough to keep as not a phone ???.
My initial guess is its the firmware as said flash stock .
Once flashed check phone has correct IMEI matching under the battery .

As stated above, youve been advised what to do, there is no magic cure.
You must flash it back to un-rooted stock, gb, then ics.
if the phone still doesnt work then you can give samsung a go, check the binary count is at zero, if not reset that to before you turn to samsung, i suspect tho that because the screen is damaged they wont repair it as its probably the owners negligence that its damaged, or if they do, theyll probably charge.
Do you have any phone insurance you could claim on?
either way you must go back to stock to at least see if it resolves it, and dont forget to check the imei.
thanks for all the replies
i'll try to make a video with the phone to show you whats the problem!
I just find out D:
the imei of the back of phone is diferent that the software one..
that could be the problem?
i need to recover my imei?
please respond!
Hello all,
a friend of mine had the bad idea to play a little bit with his S3, and he flashed a wrong CWM (the touch note2 i suppose)
i've reflashed a stock rom with Odin as the phone wasn't booting even in recovery, but at the first stock bootup the touch didn't seem to work.
I reflashed liquidsmooth but the problem remains the same - i think the higher voltage of the CWM crashed the digitizer badly - so it's not a software problem that i can fix.
Now the real probem is... how to reset the flash counter in order to send the phone for replacement? I have a self-made USB jig for my old S2 but it's not resetting the flashcounter - just booting in download mode.
is there some way to reset the counter giving the fact that i can't install anything or click on something as the touch isn't working?
thanks for any kind of advice

you mean they are not going to repair it or just that it's not correct to flashcount reset and send it for a warranty repair.... ?
Its user damage user pays .
User self inflicted damage is not covered under warranty .

well... you are right, but just being honest and explaining everything that happened in the post, has the effect of nobody helping about binary count reset?
whatever.... i think my friend should have guilty conscience if he is sending his self-inflicted damage s3 for warranty.. not you - nor i.
thanks anyway...
What i am saying is that they will spot its user damage .
I certainly don't feel guilty about it .
Follow the link in my signature for general - sticky roll-up.
In there are 2 guides to return to stock and use triangle away to reset the flash counter. The second one has more detail about triangle away so suggest you read both.
Just remember you need to use an OTG cable and usb mouse as a surrogate for the lack if touch input

me neither - i was indeed searching for a solution.
I don't really think they will be checking if the circuit really has received more voltage or stuff.
@rootSU: the mouse with an OTG cable is indeed a good idea - worth trying. Thanks!

well.. IT WORKED! the idea didn't even came in my mind as time ago i've tried the OTG cable with a mouse but never worked. Maybe a mouse issue.
Binary count reset was successfull (i did it on my s3 now too, you never know...., thanks chainfire!) and i've reinstalled the official firmware.
I'm just in doubt for the CSC / region as my friend imported it but not sure if from Germany or somewhere else. What if i install an official firmware with italian CSC? you should be able to do it using Kies too, so it should be safe for warranty.. ?
thanks! :victory:
I don't think they care

How to Unroot and Get back the Warranty of your Rooted Galaxy SIII.
My cell phone dropped on the floor, and the glass is undamaged and whole, but the display is dark, it doesnt't work i can't see anything.
I need to do unroot and reset counter to zero and get samsung orginial firmware back on the cellphone.
Can anyone explain me how to do that, or it maybe has some program to do that?
Please help, someone who knows.
Thx.

it'll be nice if you can see atleast some part of the screen
well just go into download mode and flash the original firmaware which is quite easy
and then i guess u have to wipe factory and cache to run it
this is a bit tricky but when to boot to the stock recovery press vol down 3 times den power wait for 1 min
den vol down 4 times and then power ( might be dumb but did it on my i9100g s2 )
hope this helps

If anyone else have these kind of problem, just download Samsung Galaxy S3 ToolKit V7.0.0.
It worked all job for me, without needing screen.
Thansk a lot.
