Hello, I have a I9300 that is not starting at all. I have checked the hardware and it looks like it want to start but there is no image on display, no nothing.
Do I need some special tools to program it, where should I start?
Thank you,
Caius

Hello,
unfortunately nothing, but I just checked it today again it looks I still have a hardware problem, I left it charging over night but the battery is 0V this means it was shorted any some point and now the battery is in safety mode.
Thank you for the posting, I need to solve this and will come back after I solve the hardware...

No, nothing happens no lights, sceen is totally black!!
I'll give this phone to service center in coming working days, because its the only option left now.
Yeah, my friend also had the same problem, we searched the net for full day tried every thing and finally came up with the service centre as the last solution.

You "broke" your phone mainboard
Go to LGE Service.
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA
I went to service center, they said phone's PCB has to be changed wihch is worth Rs.9500 where as the phone costs Rs.10200. Instead of repairing i may buy a new one, isn't it?
If the phone is fully charged (100% notification) the screen turns on.
Phone wakes up.
If i use it in dark sleeping room i (or my wife) wake up and get blind.
Is it possible to turn it off?

You could always just turn the phone over.......
ok... its in a docking station.
not possible to turn over.
is there a REAL solution for this known?
Turn the docking station in another direction... apart from that I doubt there being a solution right now

The S2 is the same with stock ROM. There is no way to disable that. Only way to disable that is to install custom ROM/kernel.
Find it in settings and change to .bak, or freeze it if you use titanium backup?

How is it dumb? The OP didn't say it was in a dock in his first post. It's only logical if you don't want to see the screen, to turn it over.
YOUR post, sir, was dumb.

That is correct. But rather than tell him to just turn it over, I would have kept my mouth shut.
I do hope the op does find a solution, then he can turn it back over.

you would have to root the phone, then use root explorer or titanium backup to do it. The file name's are USUALLY pretty easy to figure out what they do.

Yes it is. Its a low tech solution, but a solution nonetheless.
Get a flip cover or put a sheet of card/paper in front of the screen!

thanks for the "creative" ideas
But these things are not a solution, they are workarounds ^^
If there is nothing to deactivate it. hmm. bad.
lets see what happens with other roms which i'll try in future.
Since the thread for ultimate sudden death of S3 doesn't have a poll despite i requested op to put it. It's possible or not but we need to know how many of us have dead S3. I'm starting this poll in hopes to find out some numbers and ratio.
Suggestions are welcome on how to improve it..
Edit: Any idea how to edit this poll? i need to adjust it but there doesn't seem to be any option.

Hi
I think you need to remove the "Yes" and "no" options and add 16GB & 32GB "No" options to the 16GB & 32GB "yes"options as this is misleading

Can't edit it or at least cant find the option to edit the poll...
The pool could ask several questions:
1) Did you s3 suffered the sudden death
yes/No
2) Was it charging?
Yes/No
3) What type:
16/32
quad/...

Found my S3 dead this morning. Was working fine last night and had plenty of charge. It will not take charge, hard reboot, nor go into download mode. And trying another battery or usb charger didn't make any difference.
Just been on to Three who said to take it in for repair/replacement. So I will be doing that today...

No, you are using a vulnerable chip.
VTU00M and 0xf1 are not safe. Flash a safe kernel.

There are kernels that address a problem that is assumed to prevent sudden death. Right now that's all we have.

Hello Everyone,
I bricked my galaxy sIII i9300 bought in Europe. Now I am looking for a motherboard replacement and found a i747 motherboard in ebay. My question is can I replace the i9300 motherboard with i747 motherboard? If they are not compatible, can you suggest me a way to replace my motherboard?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Madan Raj
Although to save you having the thread moved or reposting.... the answer is no. You do not want a US model motherboard

Its a completely different phone with different CPU and graphics card and connects to completely different network frequencies to the rest of the world.

Just outta curiosity, regard hardware and frequency, if their screen are same, is it possible to switch motherboard?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
No idea. Don't even know if the screen is the same or has the same fittings. How many essential components that aren't part of the motherboard need to connect to the replacement and work? What voltage do those components need?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
I think you can switch the screen setup of both models, but not sure. I read somewhere that its possible to switch screens. Let me lookit up and share it with you guys.
I was worried about the motherboard and now it seems I have no other choice than dumping my s3 or wait untill I get a i9300 motherboard
Anyways, thanks guys for sharing the information. Just let me know if have to keep something in mind before buying a motherboard. Any help or suggestions are appreciated!
Cheers!

Did you try different charger or cable? Samsung cable is crap.
If the problem will remain u have broken usb port and u must visit service.
