Since the problem started after flashing, your issue seems to be a software problem than a hardware issue, perform a flash again with a stock rom via Odin, and why do you want to swap the screen with a cracked one when you might be having a perfectly good screen?

Just hit the damn help button if I helped you.

I think it is problem with motherboard. Cause I cant flash via Odin . Seems to my pc cant recognise phone but I Can still flash custom rom via recovery. I did think about buy another phone with cracked screen but with good motherboard if my problem is related to hardware (motherboard) not software and then swap screen only with my working one.

Flashing a rom doesn't usually effect the touch hardware as we are just performing write operation on phone memory, it must be because some touch related driver's of your phone might have got corrupted, try installing a different kernel like Siyah, if you can't use PC Odin, try using Chainfire's Mobile Odin. Be careful though and don't make any more mistakes, if you mess up, your phone will definitely need a motherboard replacement.

[Q] Flashing failed

My luck is very bad. I failed to flash my 9100, and now I can not turn on my phone. No matter I press on which keys, the screen keeps black. And I connect it to my computer bu it can not be detected. I have tried the Counter Reset Patch to go to downloading mode, but failed. So what should I do now? If I sent it back to Samsung Service , how much will they charge me? Or If I can fix it by myself ? Who can help me? Thanks very much..
First, your luck isn't very bad, computers don't have luck, if you've bricked your device it's because you've messed something up not because you're unlucky.
Second, what exactly did you do to flash your phone? You haven't given anywhere near enough information for anyone to help you hence the lack of replies.

Thank you very much. U are right, I bricked my phone by my careless. I was restoring my phone to a previous system,then it got stuck in the recovery. I waited for a long time finally I have to take out the battery. Then it bricked.

As far as I know I am the first. U know under almost all conditions u can fix it by downloading mode , but now I can not enter that mode. So I am unlucky.
1 tip
Try charging the battery using another mobile or external battery charger.Then connect. By my experience usb drivers of android dont easily get damaged or lost until u ruin the rom heart and soul.

What did you actually flash? Firmware, Kernel or are you trying to Root your phone?
If you can go to Download Mode then flash Stock Firmware. To be safe, charge battery to at least 70% before flashing via Odin3 v1.85. Provide more details so it would be easier for others to help....cheers

Did you just flash the "Leaked - 4.0.4 I9100XXLQ5..???
If Yes then the only solution is Samsung Service Centre.

This leaked firmware had cause a lots of Hard Brick to other user not only you.

Bricked after factory reset, I can't even see CWM. Help!

So the thing is I'm using ROOTBOX ICS rom, and because I'm willing to gift my phone to a cousin I did a Factory Reset, then my phone turn off and when it tries to wake up, after Samsung logo, it makes like a blink on the screen... every 3 seconds.
I can't enter CWM Recovery using VolUp+Menu+Power, however I can enter Download Mode using VolDown+Menu+Power.
So guys, give me a solution here please.
Thank you so much.

If you don't want to flash a stock ROM, root, and flash a custom ROM again, you can use one of odin flashable files for custom kernels, not all have one but you can check (Dorimanx for example)

do you still have warranty on your phone?
if it has, follow this guide so that you dont have to pay any fee
1. flash stock firmware and root it
2. after rebooted connect usb otg cable with usb mouse attach to it so you can navigate the screen on your phone.
3. install triangleaway and reset the binary counter on download mode.
4. after resetting the binary to no or 0, unroot your phone using supersu.apk and uninstall triangleaway
5. after unroot factory reset your phone.
6. you have to use again the usb otg to pass the welcome screen after factory reset
7. you are now ready go to the shop and claim warranty.

So nobody solve this problem yet?
Ok i had this problem days ago, unfortunately after putting the wrong file for rooting, the touchscreen doesnt work at startup screen.. This is harfware problwm u have to change the lcd and difitizer... Hard to believe but its true after wrong rooting seen blue flicking, i think it damages the chips oh well it made my pocket burn replacing one lol.
I finally get back my charming s3 with the warranty claim! Tq very much chris.
Ironically,i ask my friend about my phone problem,he say that its not about the hardware damage,but software,specifically,kernel.he said that i can just flash stock firmware through kies (not odin) to get thing back normal again.i did not do this method coz i already got my repaired s3.. so anyone encounter this problem maybe should try the method,perhaps?

yes try the kies method first before sending for repair.
but i dont think it will solve by kies update if you got the brick by flashing wrong cfautoroot.
maybe if you got the brick from flashing rom maybe it can be fix,

i did this to my device almost 2 week ago and upgraded my HDD so unfortunately i don't have the back up and can't remember the kernel version or which file i used to root it
maybe luck is not on my side after all ... .
Ok....to recap......
Can you enter recovery mode?
Can you enter download mode?
Do you get the battery icon on the screen when you plug the charger in?
Does the area below the main camera get warm when you attempt to charge?
If your answers are 'no', 'no', 'no' and yes.....then more than likely it IS brickbug.......
Which brings me to my next question.......
Ignoring the fact that you rooted (this is now undetectable) are you under warranty?
Samsung are aware that *some* of their phones will fail if a wipe or kies update is performed on them. So as long as you tell them........
'I tried to update with kies and then the phone switched off and wouldn't switch on again'
then they *should* repair the phone under warranty.
Just DON'T mention XDA or rooting or odin or brickbug......or anything else like that and you should be ok.....

Had the same problem with my old s2.The phone doesn't boot into recovery or download mode if the battery is dead,Make sure the battery is alright and try again.I had to replace my battery.
If all is well,then its EMMC brick.

If it is the emmc brickbug (and it's looking like it is) not even samsung can bring that main board back to life...sorry mate. ..

Painful indeed . . .. . .. .
was there anything i could have done to prevent this .. . ????
From what I can tell 4.0.4 was the problem. Soon as you factory reset the phone dies. Sam knows about this that makes it even worst. Sorry to hear about your dead s2

Stay well away from 4.0.4 firmware and factory reset. Even with a custom kernel I think is a bad move to stay on it.

at least its good to know that its not my fault . . .. tnx bro. . .:good:
Some will say its your fault for not reading. Not me this is a dirty samsung problem and they should of recalled ALL the faulty handset's as I think they are faulty and pull the 4.0.4 from every were. Can I ask were did you get that firmware from?

Wrong forum, hence why you may have bricked your phone. As above try flashing the correct stock rom, else ask in the right forum.

A phone is bricked be the user new or not .
If they want to start flashing without reading and double checking then its likely a problem .
As said usual per this scene flashed wrong firmware on a totally different hardware is not usual recoverable . Blown digitizer blown motherboard all probables .

How do you know I'm not also a doctor? Kind of annoying when people make assumptions based on no evidence. I didn't judge you -just pointed out the likely cause and effect, your phone's 'diagnosis' if you prefer.
