Hi,
My s3 neo has died because of over voltage (unstable electricity) and I think the motherboard is dammaged.
I want to replace it with a new one, but if I do so will my data remain on the phone or it is gone with the old motherboard ?
and if its gone , is there any possible way to transfer the data from a dead motherboard ???
Thanks for your time in advance ?
If its dead you can't recover the data but i think few gsm service might be able to do it. Because data chip is on mobo data will be gone if you change it

Hey folks,
Iam from India and i own Sgs2 I9100. Last day it suddenly turned off and when i tried to turn it on it was stuck in booting and i pulled out the battery. But now it doesnt even turn on ,it doesnt even show charging battery indication.Just gets heated near camera.So its Hard bricked. I negotiated with samsung service centre about the price of new motherboard. They are ready to give it for 6k. But problem is that my phone is not indian version. I bought it from australia. So the service centre guys are saying they can get the board replaced but wont Give me IMEI. That is they will just give me Motherboard replaced. I have got my previous EFS FOLDER saved in my pc.So if i get just the board replaced from them can i just copy my efs folder and get my phone back to life. My basic question is that what will come with new board ? which rom ?. Or is it just motherboard without any rom and i have to use odin ?.
Expecting an earliest reply. Iam tensed.
Hi All, I have been using S2 since 1 n half year. I have rooted my cell many times , recently I rooted my cell with Jelly Bean unofficial , it was working fine for 1 month , yesterday suddenly cell phone was switched off and it did not restart. When I took it to Samsung service center , the person says , there is problem with Motherboard whcih need to be replaced for 10000 rs. Can any one suggest for alternative / lesser price motherboard / any suggestion. Thanks in advance.
Check eBay/Google search to try & buy a 2nd hand broken phone/with a broken screen (someone on here also managed to find a 2nd hand board on its own about a week or so ago, I don't recall where from) you can pull the motherboard out of & swap into yours. If you're not confident doing it yourself, a local mobile shop may do it for your more cheaply than what you've been quoted for what I assume (??) is a new motherboard as opposed to a 2nd hand one.
Hi ,
My phone went inside water, and had to change the motherboard.
I gave it to shop.
Now i want to know if he has replaced a new one or just repaired my old one.
Does everything wipes out when new motherboard is replaced with new one ? (pictures, games, kernel)
There would have been no way to extract data from the old internal storage, so no. Data on the sd card could be transferred. Best way to check is compare the IMEI number to the old motherboard IMEI.

A phone legally must retain its imei. Thats why motherboard replacements are reprogrammed with the original imei.
Sure, they may not have complied and given it a different imei.
If it has a different imei - tells us definitely swapped mobile
If it has sane imei - tells us nothing

Yes but same if repaired and new firmware flashed .
Not cost effective to repair a motherboard in most cases and if it was wet then failed components are multiple .

Disassembling an s3 and removing the motherboard takes 10 min and no skills. No decent repair center will bother testing all the components.
The problem is the imei cloning that can need programming skills and not always done it seems as many users find an unusable phone after motherboard repair.
Hi guys !
A few weeks ago, I accidentally deadbricked my Galaxy Note I717 (known in Singapore as the Note 1 LTE/N7005) , so I sent it to a repair shop to get the whole motherboard replaced. I just got it back yesterday, and I could not get a stable signal at all , only LTE and GSM on rare occasions for a few minutes. I checked the IMEI and found out that the software's IMEI did not match the one printed on the back of the phone.
Any ideas how can I get this issue fixed WITHOUT buying a 3rd party SDT Box or such items?
Thanks !
From what I know, replacing the motherboard is like getting a different phone. So, you may need to contact your service provider and tell them that you repaired your phone. See if they can update your account to make your service work on the phone.
