[Q] Warranty + Superbrick = Free of costs? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got blessed with Samsung peace of **** eMMC BUG!
I have warranty for more 1 year and 9 months!
Will it cover the motherboard replacement? Or it has costs?
I mean.. of course i will take my device without triangle or binary counter and with a stock kernel!
It just shows the bootlogo and i'm able to enter download mode!
Currently i fixed it with the tutorials on General Talk but i lost 5Gb on my FAT32 partition and wanna trade my motherboard for a new one... without this bad sectors!
And since i have my warranty i wanna know if it will have any costs or just for free because the warranty covers it?

I'm having the same issue with mine, could you give me the link to the tutorial that helped you?
Thanks & good luck with Samsung . . . . !

Here you go!
still waiting if someone knows if it is free of costs

only be free if you lie to samsung about how it happened

I would probably get infraction for telling you this ill-advice. (Its justified because Samsung is neither admitting the bug not fixing it)
Hard brick you note by flashing infamous Angelom kernel.
Tell 'em you did Factory Data Reset from Settings > Backup and reset.
And it bricked.
Act dumb.
You probably would get warranty, and I would get an infraction.

I think Samsung are at fault for releasing faulty code into production. This is damaging to their reputation and if they ask me to pay, I will contest it.

I wrote them I had installed the lastest ICS OTA update (true) and that I was not satisfied about how ICS behaved (true). I also wrote them I messed up while trying to go back to GB (also true). I've send in the device but no further questions were asked. Repair didn't cost me anything, only the costs of sending it in.

Hard bricked warranty question.

Title pretty much said it. Out of careless mistake I flashed 3 button fix stock jf6 rom over a gb rom. Hard bricked. On Odin it said the flashed is completed with no error, and success. So just wondering if there is any trace left in the phone AT&T or samsung could trace it down to fire a back charge on me? Or anyone that warranty their phone for the same reason had heard anything from AT&T. Thanks in advance.
P.S I do have some custom rom and kernels zips on the buildin flash. Is it against privacy for AT&T or samsung to check those stuff if they do manage to bring the phone back to alive?
Honestly if they can get you phone back up they are going to nuke it. You should be fine

DEAD Galaxy Tab. Samsung Center said the Motherboard problem.

Hi all. My TAB is dead already. it's dead just normally not because of flashing or rooting process etc. The battery drain to below 10% before i go to sleep and left it without charging it. I don't think its the cause it's dead.
Btw, when i wake up tomorrow morning, i found it dead then, i connect it with the charger but nothing happen. no lights, no display, nothing show up.
After trying all the combination of keys that i found on google to wake it up, it still not helping.
For info, my Tab is already being rooted and flashed with Overcome 2.0.1 ROM from the first day i bought it a months ago. Its act like a normal before its really dead.
So, I send it to the Samsung Center (Malaysia). After a week, i got a call from them and they said my Tab Motherboard is fault/burn because of 3rd party software that i install on it. I think they mean the rooting & unlocking the Tab. So that, my warranty is VOID! and i need to pay around RM700 (USD 230.49) to change the motherboard if i want.
what you think guys? Does rooting/flashing a Rom will effect the hardware or its just their excuse?
..// sorry for my bad english btw.
i think by this money you better buy new tab .. how come you unlock your tab ? i thought all the tabs in malaysia are Unlocked .
did you try to keep it in charge for at least 4 hours and\or , in USB plug it to your computer and keep it plugging and see , ( this method may and may not work ) ..
but serious 700rm they are taik

You had overcome on it. Overcome allows for overclocking. Overclocking (even if you didn't do it) equals a voided warranty. it's made clear in every post that flashing the device voids a warranty. If you choose to fight, you won't win. This is why there are posts to restock the tab for sending back...

Yes Overclocking can destroy electronic components because of overheating. That is the main reason for me to remove overcome as my tab was abnormally warm compared to stock gb when I had gold flashed to it. I did not even touch any of the oc setting.....and may I add that I am in the Middle East where heat is an issue...

kinda similar with mine....now my gtab still on samsung centre. this morning tried to check it out and it was told that i will receive new korean battery & new machined
the customer service told that before i upgrade to gingerbread (also in samsung centre) my gtab is being rooted??
the question (in my case), is it possible to detect that my gtab was rooted since they (samsung centre) already upgrade it?
well alisabki, its kinda hard in your position....have you tried to look after the mother board on ebay/amazon perhaps? to get the alternatives price?
last night i just read (forgot the sources) that cost to build gtab is only $241 (part+labor)
come to think of it, i guess frequent flashing and trying new kernels may cause wear and tear to the tab. refers to my response here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14765324#post14765324
The service centre person told me they replaced the motherboard and the battery. I am staying stock for now.
Well folks,
Just pick up my gtab and it os i got new korean battery and new machine dunno what they mean with machine here i guess same with u, motherboard with free warranty power.
They said,"my gyab was being rooted" but they already upgrading to gingerbread so they helped me with free warranty.
Imho, my case happened because i had install couple application that required root such as adfree,quikreboot,etc and perhaps the officially gingerbread doesn't comfortable enough which is i haven't rooted
Fel good to be back with this magnificent 7

I'm having a hard time believing that it's actually toast. If you'd like me to take a look at it, just PM me as I'm very familiar with fixing bricked TAB's in any condition.
I hard believe that they can recognize that you rooted your phone or whatever since they said to you that your motherboard is gone.........so, unfortunately it is also happened to me today, it's not the first one that i flash my tab but today i've hard bricked it, sent back to Vodafone, told me to wait 1 month (#[][]###[##!!)
Dammit, never brick a phone, well used to HTC never bought a Samsung and in all honesty i was thinking to change my beloved HD2 for a Galaxy S 2 but i've found very risky to flash those Samsung phones so changed idea and waiting for new HTC devices with bootloader not locked.
Will let you know for news from Vodafone but if they will say me that brick was because i've rooted it then i want proves of that, if they can see that then they can resurrect the phone without change motherboard...am i right?
Well, i love Overcome Rom. Its getting better and better. Yap. Like Pitbull, im also the battery-wh*re.. i dont care so much about its performance. Im not doing heavy stuff/work on it. i got my nexus one btw to trying or playing overclocking etc... im just using my tab to surfing, file transfering/dropbox, movies, and even games sometime which i think it's 1ghz power is still doing its job.
What is my really problem is they (samsung center) say my warranty is void because of 3rd party software that i install on it. i think its just their excuse. the overcome rom that i use is already a month old. nothing wrong with the 3rd party software that i've install.
Declan79, its possible to detect if we root it or not. in my case, they just change the motherboard and they will turn it on just like normal. for example, my pc dead because of the motherboard. i change it to the same model and walla.. its fixed! its the same concept..
the cost to change the motherboard is cost me around USD263.27 which is more expensive + no warranty. so what? everything is expensive in my country.
you're so lucky Declan. even you void the warranty by rooting it, u still got it repaired for free..

[Q] Availability of Replacement Motherboard for Hard-bricked N7000?

I've a hard-bricked GNote. Plz don't ask why and how I managed to screw it. I cannot regret enough myself. Never intended to and usually I take good care by reading before doing something potentially risky. It's just that the temporary cwm.zip was on that note for long, and it was downloaded and used for rooting before it was discovered and marked as dangerous and I did not visit XDA meanwhile.
Anyway, it has been more than a month now. The device is super-hard bricked. Nothing can revive it. It's totally dead; no display, download or recovery modes. Has been tried for JTAG and met with failure (eMMC seems to be damaged altogether). So the only thing left to do is to replace the motherboard. The seller from whom it was bought claimed that it had international warranty at the time it was sold. However, after this disaster, I discovered this particular unit has no warranty by Samsung (was strange for me). I have contacted Samsung UAE, Samsung South Africa, and Samsung USA and all of them refused to extend any help. The local Samsung service center would charge me $400 (yes that's correct - US$400 equivalent in my currency) for replacing the motherboard.
I might use some help here by getting information on whether the motherboard can be obtained from some other place, and how much would it cost. I have access to UAE or Singapore (friends visit these places). If someone can help me with this information on how much it would cost me to get a replacement MB from these markets or may be from the Samsung service centers there, it would really be helpful. Any help in this matter is much appreciated.
Hard bricked note
I have the same problem. if anyone can let me know whether ( & where ) i can get a replacement motherboard from any of the following countries in my region - Singapore , Malaysia, India or Srilanka, i have fiends in these places but they don't know where to look so if anyone can point me in the right direction. if i can get replacement i have technician who can get it done.
FYI - I live in Maldives ... which is a small Indian ocean island nation. Few Hi tech service centers avilable but no spares.
If you think the cost of mobo is high or you can't get one,you could try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26285877 or http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26428986
Please note that the above methods are not permanent fix for superbricked phones....it just makes it usable again....And it also lessen your SD card space drastically....

I think sourcing the actual mobo's will be very difficult except on ebay, but they're likely to be damaged ones anyway, you might be lucky.
As above poster mentions, you can try a repartition as a workaround until there's a concrete fix.

@vijai2011 and @SpyderTracks, thanks for your suggestion guys, but probably you are confusing it with a super-bricked GN. There is no way I can repartition the eMMC as there is no bootloader. Without it, I cannot go into download mode or have PC connectivity of any kind, whatsoever. MB replacement is my only option.

What I'm suggesting is the only way to replace emmc is by replacing the motherboard, and samsung is the only place that will do it, or any insurance place who'll probably send it to Samsung. Sourcing motherboards is notoriously difficult outside of a service center. It's the whole board that needs replacing not just the chip as it's embedded.

I guess the best thing for you is to acquire the eMMC chip and just take the defective chip out and replace it with another one (not entirely the entire motherboard). I'm not sure though how you can accomplish this feat but someone (courtesy of 'dekelm8' from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1698977&page=59) was able to secure a replacement chip from this website - http://www.suppliesnow.nl/english-product-1108-000424.htm and http://www.aswo-elektronik.hr/eng/index.html (you need to register to that website actually).
So far he indicated that he got the replacement chip (* I think). Now to the nature if he was ever able to replace the eMMC chip with his replacement one, that remains a mystery to me still.
Hope that helps something on your dilemma and Good Luck if your able to fix back your Note.

If you can go to downlad mode, than you are not bricked your phone. Reflash or use guide to get back to GB.
P.S. Oh, didn't see your first post. You can go to some service to see if they can fix it with Jtag.
xxle2 is GB, not JB.

usb jig will work only if your device is not dead that mean when you press power button if you get some splash screen or stuck at boot logo then usb jig will work but if no response from power button then usb jig will not work for you.
And the solution for the boot repair is using jtag riff box. Its not good idea to buy riff box just for your one phone its better to take it to service centre for repair.
And also there is a elite developer Adam Outler who can fix it messing with the hardware you can see his threads.
Anyway good luck :good:

How can you not have warranty? The phone is barely an year old right? I think it launched in Europe during April 2012 or something.
Grey market purchase?

[Q] Warranty Replacement

Ok guys i wanted to update my phone with Jelly Bean and as I don't have fast internet I submitted the device to Samsung Care. When i went to collect my phone The guys at Samsung care said that there were technical problems while updating the device which caused it to brick. Now they want to replace motherboard. I want to know will this replacement be free as i am well in my warranty period and have neither rooted nor tampered with firmware?
It might be free as it is the fault of the samsung guys which caused the phone to brick. It would be wrong on their part that they brick your phone and ask for money to repair it.

Tell them about your consumer rights. Warn them that you will go to Consumer Court for this. Ask for a Galaxy S4 as replacement. They won't give it to you but might repair your phone fast. :good:
