Hi All,
Australin Optus GT-I9305 (4G/LTE Ver).
Android 4.1.2
Download mode: Binary dowload 3 - Current binary Official - System status Official
I tried to root my SGS3 today with Odin however I used the wrong root from my old Note 2 which caused the screen to do weird things and then the screen would not boot up or respond. I have reinstalled the stock software on it with Odin and now the phone starts up but still does not respond to my touch's.
I can boot into recovery and download mode no problem. I have cleared the cache and performed a factory reset still no response from screen. I am stuck in the first set up screen atm the menu key, back & home key all make sounds when I touch them.
If I unroot the phone will it fix this issue? if so how?
Is the phone gone/dead/unfixable?
Or can I use USB OTG to control the phone so I can use triangle away and return for warranty?
I also think USB debugging is off as well as I cannot get into the phone.
Any help will be really appreciated thanks guys.

You will just have to get a new screen (i9305) as theres no way to fix via software! This also happened to XDA dev tv presenter Erica.
Thanks rayner123 but thats not what I wanted hear....

flashing note2 cfautoroot to your s3 will definitely brick your touchscreen and you cannot recover it by unrooting and flashing firmware your only choice is to bring it to warranty and before you do that follow the guide i posted here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2145908&page=2
you can still use otg even usb debugging is uncheck.
Thanks will be trying that today
Thanks just done it everything is back to stock now im go to the store yeah.

I punched in this code: *#*#2663#*#* to update the firmware for my touch-screen and touch-key.
When I hit "Touch Key FW update" it updated really fast and everything was great!
When I hit "TSO FW update" is said "Now Updating... Warning! Do not turn off!" And it STAYED THERE FROZEN...
It said "Do not turn off!" So I left it until the battery died!
Then I plugged it in to charge it, and now the back button and menu button BOTH don't work at all! I tried two more times to "TSP FW Update" but it's totally permenantly frozen!
I tried flashing the stock firmware!
I can't get to the menu to do "factory reset!"
What do I do??
Have you tried using a USB jig and reloading firmware using Odin?

I have completely reloaded the firmware twice since then from a stock rom. I used Odin for it. My operating system works fine, generally, but the menu and back keys will not work.
But, are you saying that I can use Odin to specifically reload the TSP firmware? Because I haven't done that. If that's what you're saying, do you know where I can get TSP firmware?

Never heard of that and you dont need a uSB jig anyway as you are loading firmware ok .
I would download correct stock firmware .
Clean Slate for those that balls up the firmware .Or need to return to service or decide if its hardware/firmware problem .
Backup data first if phone is working .
Boot CWM recovery
Mounts and Storage
Format cache data system sd card .
Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .
Still problems use usb jig to set rom counter to zero if rooted or custom roms used ..
Return to service centre .

Hi,
So this issue has been fixed??
Hi all. Well... It happened to me too. I followed an advice to remove 4.3 lag by updating this, and lost all touch.
The screen won't even turn on now, but I know the phone is powered up because when I plug in a usb cable I get the windows popup.
Wow this sucks so much and I'd like to ask for any advice if there's a fix for this. I'll try to check if I can enter recovery and reflash the rom, but I think all my buttons are dead.
---------- Post added at 06:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:59 PM ----------
Update: after maybe an hour it came back to life. I had good battery so I guess it was downloading/updating stuff, during which I had no control of the phone.
As far as the experience enjoyment, I give it a 2/10, would not do again.
So it was in that "Now Updating... Warning! Do not turn off!" mode for a hour and after that all was normal again? Is the wakeup problem solved with that?

Hi there pattmayne and particularly anyone still getting mileage from their GT-I9000M,
I had this issue with Galaxy S Vibrant (North America) - GT-I9000M (the M is significant). I thought I would explore the *#2663# option and hey, why not update everything while I am there. I lost the use of my Menu and Back soft buttons and no amount of flashing or factory resetting seemed to help.
I found a promising solution on an obscure board (to me : forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/2181386) as follows :
- Run the TSP FW update,
- Although it may appear to be stuck, wait a good number of minutes to be sure it has done what it needs to do,
- Interrupt the « update » specifically by removing the battery,
- [wait a few seconds for memory to discharge],
- Insert the battery, start up again, and run the other update, TS FW,
- Voila !
In order to access the special code, I had to flash back to stock and for some reason, I decided to flash back to Froyo instead of Gingerbread. The result being that from 2.2-Froyo, the TSP FW update actually worked, so I did not have to bother with pulling the battery. I am very happy to have my phone back in one piece !
I much prefer Heimdall over Odin, however I did have to do some research to find a decent Heimdall tutorial.
You should be able to find the stock files for Froyo by searching for GT_I9000M_UGJK3_UGJK3_BMCJK3.
If you can't, ping me and I will get around to providing a full write-up on how to mod your GT-I9000M (with many thanks to those that have gone before me).
Hi, i have more or less the same problem with my Galaxy S4 GT I9505. After updating to lollipop (5.0.1) the back and menu buttons were not working anymore so i started searching for some solutions, and i saw the updating touchscreen firmware option and now the fit touch is not working anymore as the buttons. I read that making that i could have fried the LCD Touchscreen. I dont hope so, the LCD is new, I've re-flashed to 5.0.1 as a reinstall. And theres no solution. I need help, i cant afford another 65€ in other LCD

There is a 26 page long thread over on the S4 forum about exactly this problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3250132
It is doubtful that anybody on the S2 forum will be able to help you as anything that works for the S2 probably won't work on the S4......
Sorry fella, your best bet is to post in the thread I linked you to.....
Good luck.

Recently i tried to install firmware on my Galaxy tab 10.1, but it resulted in a bootloop, and now i am on the samsung screen. I tried to install the firmware with mobil Odin. The firmware i used is P7510XEULPH_P7510XXLPH_HOME.tar. I dont know what to do to get my tab working again, because when i try to boot into the recovery, i get the flicker screen.
If anybody could help me i would greatly appreciate it.

Sounds like you soft brick your tab. Looks like your gonna need to whip out the PC and find PC version ODIN even though the screen stuck on flicker it will still connect well at least it did when I soft bricked my SGS 2. Well good luck guy I knw I had a few days of fun when I was trying to fix mine.
Oh ya one more important thing check in your device form in Q & A Chechen sticky always a lot of useful stuff or might even find a quick fix from fellow XDA fanatic like me.

To bad for me, i use Linux. My computer is now just flashing the Samsung logo, but what happens when it runs out of battery, and can i charge it like this?

Not sure if you are still stuck, but if you boot into recovery and then clear cache and user data it stopped the boot looping for me...

In theory you can switch off the tab and plug it to charge. It should charge as you do not hard brick it. If you can slash your tab via Odin, try to flash it two times, one by one not letting it to boot android and samsung logo after the first flash. After the second flash, reboot and hold the volume - button till you get into stock recovery mode. then wipe data and wipe cash. then reboot again.
Okay so I've had my s3 for quiet a while but never actually used it properly until today.
First issue was it didn't get past the samsung boot logo, it showed the carriers boot logo( three UK) followed by the samsung one but didn't go any further.
I thought oh crap I guess it's time for a reset. I do the usual factory reset through recovery mode. But noticed that it started saying E:/ removed or something.
Now not only no network carrier to be seen but stuck in samsung i9300 screen. Boot loop.
Next action fire up Odin and see if I can use the (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610) to get back and downloaded THREE different firmware as I wasn't sure of which one to download as I couldn't access my settings.
Next thing I know Odin says pass but it is on this constant loop of green android man and samsung!!!
I removed the cable and closed Odin but still stuck on it. I can't access recovery mode only download mode.
What do I do guys?!
P.s all this time I had no root installed
I would suggest warranty claim as you have never rooted i

Hey guys,
Phone has just broke, powers on and works but display is blank. Want to get it fixed under warranty but first need to flash back to stock ROM.
Sounds easy enough right, even with a blacked out screen? Well, for some unknown reason, I can't get into download mode using the three button combo...the only way if you can't see the screen, right? I have ODIn all fired up, stock ROM loaded but it won;t pick up the phone because of this issue.
Really need your help this, otherwise I'm screwed.
S3 GT-I9300, DarkyROM
Thanks in advance!
You could try android commander. If it recognises your phone, there is an option to reboot it into download or recovery mode.
Excellent, will give it a go.
Thanks for quick reply.
No problem -download - http://androidcommander.com/
you would need to reset the flash counter first using triangle away.

possible to do so with screen broken ?
if the touch screen works, you can set up a video out and control it
just a quick question...
i had previously installed lightening rom on my samsung galaxy s2 gt-i9100. recently i wished to upgrade to jellybean however as my home button is broken/recently stopped working i cannot enter into recovery mode to use odin. kies does not recognise the os so it will not allow any upgrades.
could anyone advise me on any options i might have, im new to all this so i would really appreciate some assistance from the more knowledgeable members on this site. is there any way of breaking into the recovery/download mode without having to go thru the power/volume down/home key route?
thanks in advance for any assistance
Yes there's ways of booting into download mode. I'd advise against it though. Why? Because messing with the software with no escape route is playing with fire. If something goes wrong and you need the key combo to boot into recovery to factory reset, you're toast.
Moral of the story, get the hardware repaired before you continue to mess with the software.

Adb reboot recovery?
And there's a home button fix for certain kernels..

Hopper is right, 'messing' with the phone with busted hardware is asking for a 116gm plastic paperweight. Do the smart thing & fix the button first.

Do you think it's really broken? If I remember right, it's a problem with litening Rom, it had a feature like "enable home button" so it could be a software issue, full wipe before flashing new Rom should fix it...afaik..
Flashing a touch recovery (dorimanx kernel) can also work around this.
