My HTC fall down today and while, the message NO GSM is displayed.
I am not able to flash anything (SSPL.....), each flash freeze and I don't know why.
Any idea?
Please tell us if you have done ANYTHING AT ALL to the device, dropped it or installed any software.
I did nothing really, my phone just fall on the floor...
Now WM is booting but NO GSM.
I flashed my phone three month ago to Vodafone (SFR in France) firmware
Now I am not able to flash any firm, all say it is not "compatible" , i can not flash hard-spl, and when i use HERM-SPL, the flash freeze during the process.

This may have damaged the phone unfortunatly You may have to return the device for repair, however this would not be a warranty repair as the device has been dropped.....does anyone have an advice on this!??!
no other idea?
Well, you dropped it and it stopped working. I would assume you have a hardware issue so finding a repair facility is probably your best bet. How far did it fall? Any visible damage?
not any visible damage , less than a meter ....
the phone still phone after the fall, but Windows crashed, and when reboot :NO GSM
Pardon me asking the obvious, but: did you try taking the SIM out and reseating it?
yes , I did.... The thing which is strange is that i cannot flash it anymore, I would like to put the official HTC rom before to send it to guarantee. Any idea why the flashing procedure fails?
Could it be some parts inside the phone is loose? But unless you are 100% sure otheriwise taking it apart will void the warranty.
I bricked my phone (completely dead, the screen was not turning on even by plug the phone charged) after rooting and installing the custom recovery and try to flash a rom ... Brought to assistance, they repaired it (they changed motherboard i think).
So, if you brick your phone but still it does turn on, try every possible method to unbrick it, but send it to warranty only if is completely dead!!
I don't think they'll repair it in warranty if they found a custom recovery...
A few people here have confirmed that it IS under warranty if it doesn't turn on. There are also a few advices there on how to get it back to stock, such as shaking it (lol XD) and disabling the LG modem driver. Did you have to pay for the repairs?

no i did not pay, but the repair takes too much time... it's been a month now
if you cant turn on your phone any any possible way that you've tried. there is a big possiblity that LG service center can't too so they wont be able to know if you have rooted your phone. hehe. the trick is when LG asks you why you brick your phone, Just Lie...
Hi guys, i just bricked my phone after i tried to install the new update V10_00H. I send it for a warranty and i told them that the phone turned off after i tried to update. After 1 week they called me that the warranty is rejected because of unauthorised update. Sorry if my englosh is bad, i'm from Bulgaria. Can you please tell me what to do. Here is an another warranty service and the guy who called me, told me that he will write me a new warranty to try at the other service. Please, tell me what should i do?
Edit: What should i tell them: that the phone is bricked because of an update or it just turned off and it won't turn on.

It doesn't matter what you tell them, they will probably check the phone anyway. Stick to the story that you tried to update to the last software version using LG PCSuite and the update failed, bricking your phone. This is definitely covered by warranty.
But before that, have you tried the advices found here?

Здрасти, Крис Предполагам телефонът ти е от Виваком ...You should threaten them with the Consumer Protection Commission (a.k.a Комисия за защита на потребителите. Stick to your story in your complaint to CPC and VivaCom.
By the way have you tried to reflash your phone with the KDZ Updater using the EMERGENCY, not the DIAG mode? That saved my live. Just remove your battery and plug the phone into the PC. The screen should become yellow displaying "Emergency mode". If it doesn't turn on whatever you do, it could be a hardware issue and you will not get away without taking the phone to a service.

Да телефонът ми е от Виваком. But i took it once to warranty service in Vivacom and they returned it whit the warranty rejected and unusable anymore. The guy wrote me another warranty but i think that the phone's serial number is entered in their system and no matter i take it they'll find out. But i'll have to try. I won't give up. When they returned the phone they showed me in the warranty that point 4.3 is: "The warranty is rejected when you try to manually open, repair and change the hardware or you install updates and you modify the software". That was their excuse. That's why I don't want to say that i updated it. At the other service (not Vivacom's) I'll say that the phone just went off and it doesn't want to turn on. Hopes this work.
Any updates on the matter? My phone is bricked too. Happened last night, it won't turn one now. Took it to the service center & they said that high chances are that I will get a replacement.
they're not actually replacing with a new one..they'll replace it with a refurbished one.

So I bought Galaxy S3 2 weeks ago. I was installing nova launcher for my phone but then it just went black on me. My phone is on stock but rooted. Now i cant boot up the device and I dont know what to do!PLz Help :crying:
The device is not booting up just by installing a third party app? or it actually boots up shows status bar but everything else is black? At worst case you can try factory reset your phone from recovery (you will lose all your data)
Yeah! It just went black when i installed Nova launcher.
Doesn't make any sense, that shouldn't happen.
Can you enter recovery by pressing vol up + home button + power button when phone is switched on?

I doubt it is the main board as you've been able to get into recovery and flash back to stock, it was probably more like a software glitch during you're original update, if they are saying it is broke and they will exchange it for a new one then you do it if you want for peace on mind.

They said that I have to pay for it if the mainboard was broken! Oh by the way, i cant boot into download mode or recovery mode. I said that i returned back to stock and then used it for a day and a half. Then my phone just turn black when i was installing nova launcher. And it bricked, i guess!!!! :crying:
Probably your phone is dead. Don't you have warranty? Normally they should replace anything.
Warranties depend on the country but in many countries, during the first 6-12 months, the seller has to actually prove you broke it or caused a malfunctionin order to be able to refuse warranty.
Noth that the key is SELLER, Samsung has no obligation to you only the company you got it from.
Even proving that rooting caused your malfunction (should they be able to determine it was rooted) is impossible since rooting does not cause hardware issues. Altough they might try to make you believe it

did you tell them it was rooted?
maybe that's why they are not honoring the warranty
No, I didnt tell that it was root. i just said that i updated the new firmware! but they said that i must have brick it when i flashed some custom rom. And now i have to pay for the mainboard!
Yeah if you told them you were rooted best thing you can do is go back there and say that it broke on it's own. Since they probably don't have a way of finding out if it was rooted they won't be able to refuse the warranty.
OH! And by the way, i told them that it broke when i was surfing the internet but they didnt believe me. they said it was my fault cause I updated the firmware somehow wrong! But i doubt it could be the problem because I was still able to use for one and a half day!
Hi all,ok i have had a rooted samsung galaxy s3 i1900 for the last 8 mths and dont no what is going on but last nite it decided to switch itself of and stay stuck on the Samsung logo boot up screen, ive tried all the obvious like a soft/hard reset and taking the battery out and trying to put into recovery mode, but it doesnt want to no , also even when i plug in mains charger im getting no red light to say its charging, so before i take back to vodafone can i just make sure it is bricked and there is nonthing i can do, vodafone said yes they will send of to samsung for repair free of charge as its still under the 12 mth warranty, only reason im posting this is to definately check there is nonthing else i can try with the help from other members on here, many thanks and hope to hear soon from brian..
can you boot it into download mode?
If you can still access recovery then it isn't a dead motherboard, probably the system partition is corrupt which a reflash of the ROM will solve - or go for the warranty repair. The rooting shouldn't invalidate the warranty.
Thankyou

You said you don't have warranty?
At this point if the port is damaged, you can't do anything unfortunately. The only thing to do is get the Device repaired. At least the micro usb port. Then you can do something.
I got around 20 months of warranty yet, and even the bootloader is locked but the device itself is bricked.
In my country any modification = warranty voided.
I'm gonna try tomorrow to use warranty, but **** - 2 weeks without phone
