how can they check about stock rom either its motherboard is dead a jig that works perfect on my bro galaxy s2 but not getting into download mode on my s2
in one post on this forum i see a reply from a member that if jig is not working then motherboard is dead that only way to send it in warranty to service center.
Just take it to Samsung Care... Theu wont identify anything...
And if you are from India/Pakistan/Philippines then they don't even know about Root

If jig doesn't work then most probably the motherboard is dead(if it doesn't turn on at all it is a hard brick), and by replacing the motherboard by warranty they won't be able to tell whether you had a custom rom.

I thank people who write helpful posts, so i expect the same.
Yup take it to care - in all probability they won't know what you did the thing is you'll now have to make up a believable lie , which ofcourse is fairly easy, in case they ask you - what happened
clearly,god is a democrat!
thanks to all of you friends and for your good opinions........
thanks again and hope for next help

hmm you can switch back to old orignal rom
but I don't know about SPL did we want to change our SPL also ?plz some body answer
Yes, the SPL needs to be flashed back to original. I think any original rom which also flashes original SPL and is according to your phone's firmware (old gene or new gene) will make it servicable. If you can find it, good, otherwise, forget the warranty. And lemme tell you one thing, 1-4 dead pixels do not qualify for a phone exchange, so be sure that you have atleast 5 dead pixels before you do all these hassels, and dead pixels is the main cause for you to go to service centre.
original rom

Dont hesitate to contact the service center ...guys frm svc center are very much aware that we can upgrade the devices ourselves....
Do i need to install the previous version ??
No ...i feel its not necessary for you to install the older version...i once bricked my phone and took it to service center ..my SPL was changed and i was not asked anything about it...all it costed for me was just rs 100 for them to install the company shipped ROM to my device...so dont waste time searching for original shipped ROM...i doubt if it is even available in the forum...I forget what was the SPL version or rom version i had before so kindly help in that also

new gene original rom & spl
Its really hard to find. I think you should try to give it to customer care as it is. They may not say anything as it is extremely common for Windows Mobile owners to come to them with their mobiles in patched condition.

I think, Sumit is right in saying that, becoz I remember myself submitting my Vox to HTC Service Center, with a 96 DPI cooked ROM, as it had some issues with keys. I was given warranty, without any objection. The issue was fixed and when I was getting the device back, they had also flashed the original ROM for Vox. So, I think, there is no harm in giving a try by submitting the device as it is.
gene is now not available
@ Rocky
I think u should give ur device to service centre without caring for the warranty....they won't even bother to ask u why u flashed ur device and also the gene device is now not available in the market...so better do it as early as possible.....might be a chance they won't provide any service later on....
good luck buddy...get ur device rectified

I agree to you as they dont even bother which rom you have installed or what have you done with it, its in warranty they will just go for it.
atlast ......I am going to HTC center with my fingers crossed hehe ... ...am damn lazy .....but still if someone can provide original SPL then i will be thankful to him {last try} ...I got the original windows 6
HTC service centre experience...delhi
well for all the delhiites am here sharing the sarcastic boring and soporific xperience of me and my friend rakesh....{user name ;;rakesh_4utoo}
we went there to get our HTC repaired ...my handset is in warranty but his handset is 1 and a half year old ....well first in my case they were so damn irritating that I am here sitting at my home without getting even the handsfree replaced at two of their service centres ...REASON {non availabilty..as i know it was a stupid excuse} and and and most interesting case is that they were charging 7500 bucks for rakesh's handset who they havent even touched properly.... ...new handset is costing 9500 and rakesh's handset is working properly but only problem is battery drain.......phew thats it ....

If he doesn't know which ROM to install why did you let him? Only a JTAG repair would help since you don't have warranty too.

Why on earth have you created this topic when we already have plenty of this 100% exact same subject????
All you're doing is adding to the flood on needless topics that plague this forum. You have no need to simply clone topics for fresh replies that are same answers that have already been given before.

You cant just order Jtag from ebay. Jtag is made with RiffBox, which a very expensive piece of hardware. You also need some other skills and generally, Jtag is used only by professionals who know what they're doing.
What you need to find is a Jtag repair shop in your area. Jtag repair is much cheaper than getting a new motherboard.

ROM flashing is not something to joke around. Flashing a ROM without knowing what ROM is it could lead to the bricking of device. I bet your brother don't even know whether that ROM is compatible with the S2 model.
Could it be that he flashed a non-G version of ROM to a i9100G, or vice versa that leads to this condition?
Thread closed
Hopefully you can fix it without replacing the motherboard. No need for another thread on the subject.
It seems that I have hardbricked my phone. It's not even showing the Samsung logo when I hold the power + volume down + home screen button. I am a total noob at this and don't understand a thing people do to unbrick it. Is there a video tutorial somewhere? Do I need an external SD card? Should I just return this to the AT&T (my phone is AT&T carrier) store and hope for an exchange (Just bought it 5 days ago...yeah shouldn't really be rooting and things yet...)?
Can anyone help me please?
One last question: Does rooting violate the warranty and will void it making it so I can't return/exchange my carrier? If so, how much will it cost to get the company to unbrick or change phones?

Brother, I think its recovery problem . find attachment and flesh via odin . may be its help u
What did you do before it hardbricked?
If you have done absolutely nothing, it maybe the phone's fault.

Hi Friends,
Recently i got my new i777 and while flashing the slimbean rom via cwm from a stock kernel got my i777 hard bricked. Guess what i never thought that my device could even get this worse. More over as it was hard bricked ( as it looked completely dead ), i live in india so no device warranty or support was found from samsung officials. So thinking that i would get my deivce jtag from the professionals, but after approaching three of them, they all said that my device could not be jtag as its BootIc is corrupted. So the jtag option is also out of reach. So i am asking is can the SOC or motherboard can be repalced by new one to get my device ressurected. Any professional advice is appreciated. Thank you guys for reading this. And by SOC i meant to say this ( look in the attachments ).:angel:

First of all, hi there. Im a new member and also a noob hehee..
Ok, direct to the questions.
I just upgrade my s3 gt-i9300 to a custom rom and it got softbricked.
I search anywhere to fixed the problem via odin and ota, but still cant fixed it. Pit problem and so on.
After all of the time i wasted, it still not solved and still stuck into samsung logo.
So, i decided to repair it to the technician. The technician said, my phone cant be repair using software , so he's gonna change the 'ic' of the motherboard. The cost is RM250.
The next day, my phone is done repairing.. but now, my phone version is only ics 4.0.4.
So the technican said, my phone cant be upgraded anymore. He said whenever u change the 'ic' of the motherboard, it wont be upgraded anymore.. so i got angry and said, why didnt he tell me before .... so, anyone can help me??? Is that true? Or the technician just troll me so i can send my phone to him and he got money more? Im confused about this.. anyone pls.. thanks a lot..

First of all welcome to xda. I've requested this thread to be moved to the troubleshooting thread cause this is the General thread and not meant for questions such as yours.
As for your question... I don't think he changed your ic just like that he may just have flashed a stock ics rom on your phone so he may had charged you quite a bit. You can always upgrade the 4.3 when you use ODIN if you want to know more there are stickies you can start here http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/frequently-questions-t2148708. Also be careful on flashing custom roms always make sure that it's for the GT-I9300 model that you have.

Thank you for your answer. So, can i upgraded my s3?? Coz the technician said that my phone will be damaged if upgraded. I still worry about this. By the way, is it really true that whenever the ic of the motherboard changed, the android can't be upgraded anymore??? Pls help me..
Maybe he changed the motherboard, maybe he didn't. It wasn't repaired properly, leaving it on 4.0 and telling you not to update it means the efs is patched to get it working, this might be your old motherboard with a bad fix or a 'new' motherboard with a bad coding of your imei and serial number.
Either way the technician isn't capable of repairing the phone so best try getting your money back, use the update excuse as a lever.
Leaving the phone on 4.0 will mean sds happens, as that version has a bug that kills the nand memory.
Thank you for answering. Here another question more. So,are there any way to fix my phone? If i upgrade my android to 4.3 will it be damaged?
