Stock, master clear, should be fine do not over estimate the knowledge of the people who work at at&t
at&t guys dont even really check out the firmware and stuffs like that if its just a speaker replacement or something like that. just flash back to stock, master clear, and wait forever to get your phone back.
guess I should have told u that I'm sending to samsung... Does that matter?

when you flash back to stock and do the master clear, you should be good enough.
Thanks for the reply everyone.

Hey I just recently sent my phone in for repair .the rear speaker wasn't working it would go in and out. They said they fixed it and shipped it back. So its been running fine for like 2weeks and now POW! Its out again... so I'm about to call and ***** to Samsung. Just wondering. Is anyone else having problems?

No issues on two phones purchased in August.
Guess I'm sending it in again ...

With the back plate still on the phone, try pressing on the speaker hard with your thumb.
I had a similar issue and this fixed it for me.
yeah been there done that...but it still goes back out , im sending to samsung AGAIN! hopefully they can get it right this time.
So I cracked the screen on my trusty cappy yesterday while at work..have ins, so made a claim. Got it today and have ten days to return the one with the cracked screen. I know I should flash it back to stock, but my laptop is all jacked up right now...

If you can get it to flash back to stock I would try that because not having stock would void warranty even if it is software...if cant I would try flashing cognition 4.0 or older cuase it looks close to stock.

I'm going to try to make a cwm flashable backup from stock cuase are that happen to alot of people, so I'll let y'all know by tomorrow

Use this cwm file to flash back to jh7 and all will be good

Also get a reliable computer...
Especially if you're going to be messing with your phone. It is very likely that something could happen and the only way to fix it would be to connect to a pc and use odin/heimdall

I called verizon and complained about my pos revolution and they offered a droid 4 without offering me another rev. I asked why and they said they took the revs off the shelves so no more replacement revs. If you have probs then call and they will offer somethine else. I took droid 4 because i wanted to try it out. Maybe they have other phones available. Im not sure. This was the 1st time i called about my rev. Just relaying the info I got. Enjoy

It was still under warranty but i also have insurance. I didnt pay so it was definitely warranty. Just told them i had probs with rebooting and right away he said he would send a droid 4 and then i mentioned my wifes phone was having issues as well and asked if i could get 2...he checked and said yes. So i got 2 droid 4. Called last Saturday and got phones on Tuesday

Looks like I'll have to give this a shot and try to get a new phone. Tired of the constant touch screen not working.

So is there any way I can purposely "break" my phone so I can use my warranty? \:
Just call and tell them that it randomly reboots itself and the screen freezes all the time, they will probably want to troubleshoot it. Just tell them youve deleted messages and apps and did a hard reset and it still does it.

and for attempt number 1, they're sending me another Revo.
Damn.
Guess it's not the case as stated.

Most likely means your store/area still has Revos and plus since your first replacement they'll try their best to keep you in the same phone.
Last time i called, i made up some issues and they offered me the bionic. Of course it was the third revo i had gone through lol!

When I send it in, should I do do a hard reset or set it back to stock?
And assuming worse comes to worse, should I back up all my apps etc. on my computer? Just incase?

You sir are my hero.
I'm on review #3 too, got it last week. I'm sure I'll need another one before September's upgrade.
Went through 4 revos before I was able to get the Nexus.

Hello! Frist of all, I want to say that I'm new and I just learned this page from Google when I searched for a situation like mine.
I have Samsung Galaxy S Advance.
Back in January, when the new Russian firmware came out, I updated my phone via odin, successfully.
Yesterday, I updated again with the newer Italian firmware successfully. I reset it in order to work better and then I reinstalled the apps that I wanted. (I reset it becasue I have many apps that I didn't want)
Anyway, the phone worked fine for almost 24 hours. When my phone turned off 'cause of the battery, I charged it and then I turned it on fine.
The next morning I unplagged it from the charger and it was fine.
After half an hour that I wanted to call someone, it didn't work. I was pressing thw power button all over again and nothing.
I tried to put it on download mode etc. and nothing with none of them.
I seems to me dead.
I read stuff you said to other people about up volume, down etc. I tried everything, but nothing.
Is there anything else that I can do?
Please help me.
Italian firmware or Indian? there is no Italian jb firmware as of now...

i think they can,but just say the phone died and nothing else..even if they get to know, as this is the stock firmware from Samsung, your warranty still holds good..that is not a problem..

it doesn't void your warranty as long as it is a stock firmware..
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda premium
The phone does absolutely nothing. I tried to charge it for about an hour, nothing appeared. I tried to connect it with PC, nothing happened.
The warranty says that it covers me only in Europe... So, now that I have installed an Asia firmware, I don't think that it covers me.
For some reason, although I bought from a Greek Store (I'm Greek) but the firmware it is Europe one and not the Greek One. The same thing says at the box too.
Oh, I don't know...
Bad lack maybe. They stole my iPhone 4S, my SE X10 broke and now that. And all that from January to April...

talk about bad luck man.. phew.. take it to the store tomorrow.. act dumb and say you don't know what the hell happened..hope for the best..
and your warranty is not void as long as it is the stock firmware. that is certain. i had this doubt too when i flashed the Russian firmware.. one of the Devs here told me that it doesn't void the warranty..

I mean try to fool them.

I've had a repair center tell me they will swap out a refurb for it.
Samsung just gave me a number to call during the week. Will stop by a repair center tomorrow.
Would they be bothered with it being rooted? I had a few screens on my evo replaced under warranty and was on MIUI both times and they said nothing.

I agree. Put it completely back to stock so your chances of them saying they refuse to replace it because you rooted and put a custom ROM on it are virtually zero. Don't give them any excuse to say no because you're too lazy to put it back to 100% stock. Make sure you do a factory full reset after PC Odin back to stock and remove your SD card before bringing it in. Better to be safe than sorry.
