Note2 kernel will destroy the touch screen of an SG3, sorry but you need a repair to fit a new screen.

First get an usb otg cable, connect the mouse to it, put everything back to stock, so everything in download mode says : samsung official and counter = 0.

I may be wrong, but if you made a nandroid backup of your device, you might be able to restore it using that. Ive never messed up my device before so, like i said, i may be wrong.

Yes. Nandroid backups cannot restore fried hardware.

If you read the whole thread instead of just quoting the first one you will get your answer. Honestly its only about 8 post and will take you all of 5 minutes.

Thank u but i did read the post many times. but though some one might as well know some thing abt the problem.
i've read more then needed. since it was not a hardware damage, i wwas expecting a genuine response rather then just a mock over the post i made.

The response was genuine, giving you the correct answer -you won't find a different one. If you flashed a Note kernel then your hardware is damaged and needs a new screen assembly.

100% solution
after root i9300 with wrong cft auto root.. touch doest work.. and i replace this chipset.. and my problem solve.. find this chipset from broken lcd.. good luck

S3 Won't start, no-led or start-up screen

Hello,
After rooting my phone I wanted to go to the recovery menu to delete all data on the phone.
So I shut down the phone and used the buttons to go the the recovery menu, when the screen appears it was there for 0,5 seconds and then I saw some text (Don't know what it was). I was not able to do anything so I decided to pull out the battery.
After waiting a while I wanted to turn the phone back on but it didn't do anything.
No led, no screen nothing, no communication with the computer.
Battery was 100% loaded.
How can this happend?
Is there something that I can do?
Thankss

Nothing to do with this forum why don't you ask the forum that gave you this method that has bricked your phone .
Suggest you flash with Philz recovery from Android Original Development .
That fails then flash your stock rom via Odin and try again .

Ultimately its samsungs fault for having faulty firmware on the emmc, but it certainly could have been partially your fault for taking a patched device and flashing it with an unpatched component. Without knowing exactly what you flashed/ recovery version etc its hard to say

When you flash stuff from a forum that has just copied bits and pieces its hard to know what went wrong .
However best response is to tell Samsung that it failed to boot one morning and you have read on the web about the emmc problem .
I have my phone back so now i'm going to try to root it again.
It's kernelversion 3.0.31 - 1314436
I'm going to use the XDA manual and rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2407407
Is this a good kernelversion? Not that my phone will fail again.
Thanks!
// EDIT:
Succesfully rooted / flashed my Phone .

you have posted the same thread twice, I don't think that is going to change anything. most likely a moderator will eliminate one of them. you had 231 views and only 2 people attempt to help.
did you try my suggestion of posting in the sub forum in the general area? I really think you have a better chance of a response there. as I said in your other thread, I read of others who had similar problems. cant do it for you, you have to help yourself first. I understand your frustrated, but a second post in same area will not fix your problem.
the sub forum is for your device specifically.

Galaxy firmware won't be installed

Ok a friend S3 started acting up I didn't back up so I lost anything
When I tried to put back the original firmware on the phone using Odin for no reason at all will it be installed. It will just stick on Nand writing in the bottom part of the screen and nothing on tp part of the screen that would usually show FIL, PASS etc.
Next thing with some other firmwares the blue loading bar on the phone will go to basically 100% but nothing will happen on the phone
I did get on 2 firmwares, one just kept booting to the Samsung logo then go in a revolving boot sequence with the animation coming up, the other firmware I got on seems like it belonged to some other phone company and after their boot screen comes up and the Samsung's logo come on the screen it will just stay there.
In both cases the phone was left after installation on both screens for hours with no success.
All I want to do is put back on the 4.12 JB T mobile version enter unlock code and give back to my friend
Can I get some assistance please thanks

Take out the battery and post the model number here.
Factory reset to get past the forever spinning Samsung logo. The Odin fails are probably due to incorrect firmware.
GT-I9300
I've been trying to get a firmware for that. And how do i get it to the point of factory reset option?

You should stick to that forum before someone doesn't read this thread and answers with a link to our firmware which will brick your device.
It should be in there somewhere. Did you read the stickies? Like aerowinder said, all tour future questions need to be posted in that forum. We know very little about your device here.

Touchscreen software issues

Hi all.
i am a n00b so please forgive me if i am doing this incorrectly..
i flashed CWM recovery touch to my GT-I9300 and the touchscreen stopped working.
i have read numerous posts about how if the touchscreen stops working, the digitizer is broken and needs replacing.. i am 90 percent sure that the software is somehow out of whack..
so, my question is...
Is it possible to reflash the drivers or software that the digitizer/touchscreen needs to work with ODIN or another way? If so, how would i do it?
i am currently using a USB adapter and a USB mouse to navigate my phone.
What phone what firmware what cwm details are missing

Recently flashed note2 kernel and the digitizer chip was burned (broken).
If you do a reinstall, stock or whatever and still find the touchscreen isn't working then you probably did the same.

galaxy s3.
not sure on the firmware as i was flashing all kinds of stock roms as i was trying to fix another issue (EFS / IMEI wiped).
and i cant remember the version of CWM.
If the digitser doesn't work in recovery AND android, its hardware not software because recovery and Android do not share "software" and by that I mean kernel and drivers.

but you wouldnt think that flashing CWMR would "Burn" the digitizer. which makes me think its a software issue

so if i wanted to check to see if it is a software issue, where would i get drivers from?
If you flashed say, the note 2 cwm like many people do by mistake then its definitely hardware.
If you have cwm touch / philz touch for the s3 and touch doesn't work and also touch doesn't work in android then its also 100% hardware.
Any drivers recovery uses are not used in the android ROM itself. You have 2 sets of drivers. If you flashed cwm and touchscreen was broken by driver / software issue, touchscreen will still work in android.
Simple and easy Test to do

My program looks like log program.
