Samsung repair centres in the Uk and super hard brick, revive by USB JIG?

Does anyone know a website for official repair centres or locations in the Uk?
Also...I think I have a super hard brick as my phone is not responding to anything, PC can't detect it. Does that mean Sunsung won't know if I have flashed a custom rom and how many times?
Is it possible to revive via a USB jig and how?
Thanks.

Guess its possible if the connection drops in the middle of an installation and you`re stuck when the download might not be complete or corrupt, especialy when going from GB to ICS.

Didn't you bricked because you install your custom rom? That's what you said in the dev forum

Here http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/repair/supportRepairSelfTracking.do?page=REPAIR.TRACKING
First register if you don't already have an account and request for repair. You will have the option to take it to a repair centre near you or send it to them for repair. I bricked mine when i flashed ICS, Binary count was zero but i had CMW installed. My phone was repaired free with no issues. I would advise you to just send it to them if your binary count has not increased. You will need to wait 2 weeks for repair though.

I was referring to the story I will tell Carphone Warehouse and Sunsung, I can't exactly go and tell then I flashed a custom rom that I made, they'll probably try and con me for begin so stupid for what I did.

Thanks for the advice, i've been flashing for ages now and never a problem, this is the first time I have ever bricked.
Btw...will they know my binary count with a hard brick?

I'm going to make a trip to Maplins tomorrow to buy a resistor and a connector to make a quick USB JIG before I send it off, sending it off is a last resort.

Pm me if you need any help sending it off and I will see what I can with regards a repair.

I had a superbrick, where the phone wouldn't even switch on (Also my first brick even though i've been doing it for years). So I couldn't reset any binary counters or restore any firmware to hide what i'd done. It was as it was, and I sent it off to Samsung and they replaced the motherboard FOC for me
USB JIG was no use. You may as well make yourself a JIG for future reference, but I think in this instance, it might be a waste of time.
All I said was, that I restarted the phone and after that it wouldn't switch on again - That was it. They replaced the motherboard for me

I doubt they will know if the phone does not turn on at all but if you can get to download mode so can they. And they will know your binary count from there. I have also been flashing for ages and this is my first time as well bricking a phone. It doesn't feel good at all.

I've went through the service centre and it needs to be sent off to Glasgow in Scotland, is it not possible to deliver it to a closer repair centre?

That is fine my friend just a matter of time there are many things I too donno and take my other expert help
And ya i also can't say exactly what cud have caused bootloop may be some bad files £ apps etc
It won't be under clocking as u did stock flash and was stuck so device was trying to boot in new os u installed
May be something u removed after rooting could have caused boot loop

Yes, mate! I actually using no bloatware app to

But the boot loop when we turn off the phone ourselves
and when turn it back, it stuck seems no way to pass samsung logo. Maybe I underclocked the phone and it causing the phone to fail to boot past?? I am right or not

No you don't have to its already unlocked

Infact there is a kernel with all that feature called perseus but still on alpha and some bugs are there have to wait for some more days that will be one of the best kernel

Bootloops are mainly caused by system files interfering with each others which cause instability and/or crash at the boot sequence. :good:

hey thanks for the reply,
no as the phone is hard bricked its 100% unusable, if it would even switch on that would be fantastic.
its more complex than soft brick.

im having the same problem... is your note alive again?

Return it and claim warranty, tell them that your phone suddenly went off and that you don't know the reason. They may replace the board for you.

wow thats sad

Then it's up to you to convince your client to return it to Samsung for warranty. As for recovering his data, that is the hard part.

Do you mean the bootloader that needs to be written as T-Flash to a microsd using Odin 3.09 or higher? (as per 13-58_SM-N900_Boot_Recovery_Guide_rev1.0.pdf) Isn't that just the same as sboot.bin written raw to first sectors of microsd?
I would be interested to hear if you managed to use that just for the "extreme hacking" angle of it :good:

I do not think the microsd is enough - the Note3 ONLY boots from microsd if you short R4075 on the mainboard - there is a notice from Samsung service somewhere around with a name like 13-58_SM-N900_Boot_Recovery_Guide_rev1.0.pdf that describes the details (and comes with a good picture of what you need to short).

Take the battery out to power off the device then try getting into Download mode, reflash your Firmware and voila you're good to go

If the phone is rooted and they dont wanna fix it then go ahead ,flash stock rom and do reset / factory reset to make it back to official roms to get back to warranty , Im sure your phone still has warranty? . Or you can try this one

I know i have posted this question already in 2 other threads, but I'm really in trouble
i updated my grand 2 from 4.3 to 4.4.2 and then tried to get back to 4.3 stock firmware through odin3. In the odin it was written "all threads completed (succeed 0/ failed 1)
now the phone isnt even switching on and no button is working
please help me, what should i do to make it work?

First try to charge at least a half full the battery
Second try to reflash the kitkat via odin, the firmware is already uploaded at samsung-updates or sammobile
Hope it will help

i gave my phone on 15th and still they're saying it'll take 2-3 days more, you should better be prepared for a week, once you give your phone to the service center
and they said it'll be fixed and not to worry :S

Everyone, don't try to downgrade, it will hard brick your phone!!!
