i tried all method on this forum nothing was working...
first at all my phone cant use charger...i dont know what happen...i try others charger still same...i have both phone i9100 and i9100G but the G version giving me headache!
i wanted to send my phone to service centre due im still on warranty but..my binary counter doest reset...when i put the usb jig after flash patch my phone not boot up to download mode..and reset...its do nothing...what can i do...
but my combo 3 button still working if i flash using my pc...only USB jig not working..please help...
1. If 3 combo button working upgrade to ICS, Then download triangle away. Check the flash counter number matches your count and run the app.
2. Or try flashing the old bootloader. Then use the USB jig.

I9100G have no ICS yet...so cant using triangle away...

Have you tried the USB jig on another phone. Just read on internet they are releasing ICS for the I9100G.

You might get lucky
I had a similar problem i atempted my first rom install ever when we had a powercut my phone gave me connect to kies message i had no cwm no bootloader however i still sent my phone away as they had agreed to fix for me in the first place thankfully even though they never fixed the physical damage caused by their packaging skills and a combo of royal mails handling it they were good enough to fix my software problem without charge to myself. I think because they couldnt access the flash counter they were forced to put new firmware on either way big thanks to them i finally got ics on my phone.
They have however since had my phone back and fixed all above physical probs again cheers to them they were either sympathetic with rom or just did it anyway.
Just thought id pop my experience with you
Physical damage is 1st thing should have been fixed

ICS just release for China phone only...not offical release all those news on internet spread that ICS already come to I9100G is totaly nonsense..
hmm..i might try sending out...but after they checking if my binary counter not 0 they will automatic void my warranty forever?

I9100G can't charge, and cannot get into download mode via jig, but CAN get to download mode via 3 button combo?
Sounds like the USB port is broken.
Since it's the I9100G, as you have discovered, there is no reliable ICS released for the I9100G yet, so you cannot use Triangle Away. And without a working USB port, the jig will not work.
However, you can replace that part for a relatively small cost from what I understand.

Look, I can't possibly be sure, because you have the phone in front of you. I can't see it, so I don't know what exactly is broken. But the symptom you describe sounds like the usb post is broken. Others have ordered the usb port part and replaced it themselves for about $13 USD.
But if you are this unsure, I'm guessing you are probably either not willing or not capable (not trying to insult, just stating facts) of doing this on your own.
If that's the case, I think you don't have any other choice other than to just send it to Samsung. But there is no other way for you to reset the counter... So warranty will probably be denied.

Does this JTAG file has a main thread here in XDA with more detailed information and all the necessary files?
Because this guide tell you to get some files into an external micro SD card, which are not available here. Also, it says connect "Anyway JIG", what is this jig? it says that this jig is powered by a power supply.. so where can I get this "Anyway JIG"?
I mean, how come there is still no jtag for the I9300?
Thanks

All the JTAG does is force the phone into download mode. If you can already get into download mode, JTAG wont hep you with anything.
If you're having a problem flashing things in download mode, and you've read the return to stock guides, search for your Odin error here. If still nothing, create your own thread for support.

It was the main circuit board that went wrong and the Samsung repair fixed it it was also due to the leaked 4.2.2 firmware causing the device to get over heated now have my phone back and its not heating up at all on 4.1.2 and my sd problem was due to the over heating I had to replace the sd 4 times at a cost of £100.00 just over then had charging problems which was due to the supplied with the phone having a break in it then found out that using one of my old lg gt540 usb wire works perfectly with the usb mains adapter with no more problems at all but I am looking forward to 4.3 and some of the new features hope this post can help a few more people as it took me 3weeks to find any info on charging this phone

OK. As far as I know.... This is so far the Only method to UNBRICK Galaxy S3.
1. Purchase a USB Jig Dongle For Samsung Galaxy S III S3 GT-I9300 Download Mode unbrick
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrZUrE5Nqj0
2.This USB jig can only bring your phones into Download Mode. It CANNOT reset your phone binary counter and remove yellow triangle..
3.Usage:
1. Turn off your phone and pull out the battery for about 10-15 seconds.
2. Just put the battery back and don’t turn it on.
3. Plug the USB Jig into the micro USB port on the phone.
4. After about 2-3 seconds, you can see the yellow download mode logo on the screen.
5. Unplug the USB Jig.
6. Connect your phone with USB cable to computer and then flash your phone via the program “odin"
It does not work with latest European Version 2.34, you have to return your device to old version to use.

Software bricking is nearly impossible, if getting bootloops or only booting into recovery there is in most cases the way about using odin to flash back to stock
And there is already a thread about changing a broken screen, use the search

Might be good to note that the jig method will only work on a softbrick.
Hardbricked phones need either a replacement or a JTAG treatment.

Actually, with the gs3 all you need is a 16gb class 10 sd card with a debrick.img.... the usb jig makes it easier so you dont have to press all the buttons or hook it up to the computer to get to DL mode... check out my last post on the unbrick your sprint gs3 thread...

Hello,
My Samsung Galaxy S2 is bricked. No way to enter download or recovery mode. Black screen... nothing to do to fire it.
Probably the bootloader is corrupted.
Does exist a tool for Exynos 4210 / S5PC210 like the one from Adam Outler "Unbrickable" for Exynos 3110 / S5PC110 ?
Thank you,
Guillaume
Ps. no need to answer about JIG, it doesn't work in this case of figure. JTAG tools exist... Yes I know! thank you BUT needs to solder a tiny tiny JTAG connector... and I don't own a RIFF JTAG Box nether a schematic of JTAG pinpoints on Galaxy S2 mother board...
No way you can fix it. Take it someone who does JTAG repairs or get the MB replaced.
Tell us what you did, so we can learn from your experience.

I flashed it longtime ago to ICS 4.03 / rooted with ODIN v3 - no problem at all.
Few weeks ago it crashed during firefox update... I reboot it, it crashed during the boot. I reboot it again and it got bricked!
That's nice, it just died on you?
Warranty is generally for two years...maybe there's still hope for you.

Hey. Once this problem happened with i9100G and i fixed it without jtag. It wasnt entering at download mode but when i turn it on and that sign keeps exist, i connectes it to laptop and odin recognized it. I installed software via odin again and it got fixed! Never seen like that!! Was flashing without being in download mode. Try it and i wish it will work

I bought this phone a few days ago on a swap site on facebook and seemed to have hard bricked it within an hour. it was running android 4.1.2 and i wanted to try upgrading the firmware by flashing CM. first step was backing up to the h1 broadband. done. next rooting. done. good. last step was unlocking the bootloader. i saw a post that said since i was running 4.1 i would be ok to use ez unlock. Big mistake. i reset the phone and now nothing. the only light i can manage to get is a red power light when connected to a charger with no battery. I tried the SD card approach with the verizon unbrick image since the phones are similar but the file i had did not work. I have also tried the USB jig. it didnt work either. next Im planning to try the USB jig with the unbrick image but i was curious to see if the unbrick image for the straight talk version was floating around anywhere. After hours of searching, i have not came across it myself. Anybody know my options outside of jtag or replacing the logic board? and if you have the unbrick image please let me know! thanks.
I dont know if this is helpful or not but in my usb devices if i hit the power button on the phone it pops us with a Qualcomm driver. ive looked around and found that it shows up in other rom flashers like miflash but im not able to send any files to the device. Obviously its doing something if the computer recognizes it right?
nobody here able to help me with this??
