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...

ya i know it. they will win. even i dont OC & even its brick because of their hardware faulted. but from what i see, they are likely to transfer the cost of repair to me because i'm rooting it. oh my~

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
genuine asia gingerbread
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..

Hi, I'm in the US currently with a Samsung Note GT-N7000 that I purchased from Amazon (the phone imei showed that it is from the UK). After about 8 months of use without using custom roms, it seems to have hardbricked through normal usage (At the time of bricking I believe I was deleting some photos in a program called QuickPix when it froze and eventually had to be manually turned off. Then it would struggle booting on the Samsung logo and after a retry, it just would not boot anymore). It is completely unresponsive when you press any of the buttons and won't get recognized when hooked up to the computer. I even tried using new batteries but that did not work. I don't think the Jig will work in my case either.
I called Samsung US and they told me that the phone would have to be covered in the country where the phone was originally manufactured for which is the UK in my case. I was wondering if anyone else have been in my situation where you are in a different country with a phone that needed repairs. Samsung UK requires that you have an address in the UK so it makes it difficult for me to file a claim. Has anyone been able to get Samsung US to take your non-US claim or have found a way to file a claim without a UK address?
Thank you so much.

Excuse me, but doesn't Amazon have the obligation to be the liaison between Samsung and you? I mean, they are no different than if you had bought it from BestBuy. You should be able to contact Amazon, and tell them that your phone broke and you'd like to have it repaired under warranty. I live here in Spain, and I bought something from Amazon Spain but it was imported from the UK. I sent it back and Amazon paid for it to be sent back and everything.
I'd try contacting Amazon, and tell them the same situation. Tell them that you got the phone through them and then it broke, and you went directly to Samsung and they said that they won't honor the warranty as it was imported from Europe. Amazon has an obligation to offer the warranty. Not to mention, Amazon is probably one of the best companies I've ever worked with. Fast responses, fast shipments and awesome service in general.
Give them a try.
Hope I've helped.
First of all was the phone all the time on stock roms ? If yes then please contact or wait to get contacted by entropy512 if the phone is died du to emmc bug. Just hold a few hours I guess

I'd need a lot more details, but:
What exact firmware was it on? What build?
As much as I would like for this to be an example of an eMMC brick on stock, the fact that it occurred when deleting files means that unless Samsung has enabled the "discard" mount option for storage in a new build I am unaware of, it's something else like a bad solder joint.

I had the phone up to date through the samsung / settings / update so whatever the last ICS update was unless there has been a new update within the past 5 days. The last major update, I remember it installed some German apps, latest version of Kies, and made the Note a lot smoother. As I mentioned before, the phone did try to reboot to the samsung logo after it froze but it never was able to boot all the way. I should have stopped at that point but I tried to reboot a couple times and that is when it became unresponsive.
Ok now that I've bricked my Ace, I have a question. If I take it in to a repair shop to have it Jtagged for repair (full brick, no response at all) can they save the software that was loaded on my phone or does the process eliminate the entire phone's contents and return it back to factory state? I had a lot of stufff on it, that I should've backed up and didn't....
Entire phone will be resetted..
Thank-You for your reply! I was hoping that wouldn't happen, but I guess that's the price I pay for blindly hitting 'install'.
Thanks Again,

How likely would they be to discover I had bricked the phone if I were to submit it for warranty repairs? Would they delve that far into it in trying to repair it? It is hard bricked so I don't even get a screen any longer when I try to turn it on. It does however show up in Odin, just Odin can't do anything further with it. I'm have trouble finding someone local to jtag it.
Thanks!

Thanks for your reply,
Odin can't do anything for my brick, I've tried different ports no luck. It's under warranty, I've only had it a month so I'll drop it of at the provider and send it in. Worse possible scenario they'll bill me for the repair if they figure out what I did.

I would imagine since that's a hardware problem they wouldn't do much digging around. As long as you are on stock rom and don't have any obvious changes or root files.

The IMEI was changed probably ba ESN, wont they use the IMEI to check warranty? Either way i dont believe they would keep the phone as its not illegal to change anything on the device (I think).

I highly doubt they would keep it. They may check against serial number as far as warranty but I've never dealt with HTC directly. I want to say HTC's warranty is a year and no HTC one has been out a year so every HTC One is still covered by warranty. If anything comes of it just play dumb and say you bought it on Ebay.
When I had to send my One back to get its screen repaired, I asked the rep I was on the phone with about the bootloader. He told me that the bootloader/ROM only becomes a problem when they can't flash it to stock for whatever reason, in which case the repair center will charge extra for the hassle of reflashing your phone. I was also told that flashing my phone to as close to stock as possible should be fine. I doubt they check your software any more than this. As with the "keeping the phone" deal, they probably wouldn't do such a thing unless it was listed as a stolen phone and some agency forced them to keep it.
My broken (shattered glass) screen wasn't covered by the warranty so they probably didn't check my warranty status. It may be different in your situation, but I hope that this helps.
Its to repair the known issue of the red/blue/green tint on the camera, i just want to play safe and get a new camera or a new phone.
Edit: Funny thing happened today, i somehow fixed my camera.
Anyway i was contacted by HTC in Portugal telling me, that because my phone was modified by Sprint the warranty is not valid in europe....

how?????
It looks like my phone is dead. I had it checked on repair store and they tried to reprogram and sort of downgrade the OS but unfortunately they weren't able to. Same thing happened. The second repair store said that the back panel has to be opened to check the internal of the phone but I didn't agree to do that.
I'm still trying to charge it today when I got home but still the same no LED light while charging. This is very frustrating as I spent a lot money to have this phone and didn't last for 2 months. Very disappointed. I will never, ever buy from an OL shop again. The warranty is void when I upgraded the OS as per the retailer so no replacement happened. Now I don't have enough money to buy a new one. Have to save up again and will take a couple of months to buy one.
Disappointment.

My mistake is I bought mine from an OL shop here in the Philippines, not from a Sony or Xperia store. I still love Sony, I still want a Z1 but to be honest right now I'm not that 100% sure if I'm gonna buy another one. Though there's no other option out there for me outside Sony aside from Apple (I guess).

Looks like your boot partition has been wiped. That's where kernel is stored. Without kernel, your device won't boot, neither recognize any plugged in cable (USB to computer either Charger).
They're two ways to solve this.
Claim your warranty to change your motherboard.
Find someone who know to revive dead Xperia Z1.
Hope this help.
good luck bro

That is not true. Without a kernel you should still be able to boot into fastboot mode (bootloader) or into flashmode and be able to reflash your device.

JTAG the phone should work but it requires a pro and since it's a new phone I highly doubt that there's any one out there who can do that you might have to wait also you will lose warranty permanently since it requires them opening your phone and soldering. Or send to Sony and pay whatever price they ask for to get it fixed.

Just so you know my phone isn't rooted or anything. I didn't do anything with it aside from updating it to JB 4.3 via Sony Update Service. That's all. That's why I'm so disappointed on why this happened to me wherein I'm not doing anything in it. It's perfectly usable before this happened.

Man than I am sorry fot that, but in your case I would probably send it back to Sony repair center for a warranty repair. I don´t know how it is in your country but I think in every normal country is the manufacturer responsible for the warranty and not the seller, so you even don´t need to contact the company from where you bought your phone, just send it back to the nearest sony repair center and they will repair your device. And if its needed, then don´t say that the phone died after update, just say them that the phone died by itself from nothing...

Yeah man, that's what I will actually today. I'll go to the nearest Sony Service Centre and have it check. Yep I'd say that I haven't upgraded it yet to 4.3. Service fee would be fine since it's not from a Sony store. As long as it will be revived it's fine with me. That is actually my last hope.
Don't blame Sony for that.
First off all - Mercedes sometimes have faulty cars, of course Sony has too but blame whole system for that won't get you nowhere.
If you had flashed custom kernels or ROMs this things could happen...
For all others - if you aren't sure what are you doing don't try to unlock bootloader or root your device...
Wait for a few weeks/months and we'll have better solution...
All devs here warned you - 4.3 on Z1 is new and every ROM and kernel or root method is in test phase...
It's ridiculous to blame Sony for flashing custom stuff and brake you device...
If you haven't then there's no reason not to use your waranty rights...
No matter where did you bought your device you have to have waranty!

No flashing of files or rooting or whatever happened. Updated to 4.3 via SUS. That's all. That's why like I said I'm kinda upset as I didn't do anything other than upgrading the OS to 4.3 via SUS then this sudden death happened.

I know, I was referring to all others who had.
But what's wrong with your waranty then?
If you updated via official Sony apps and programs?

As per the man I talked to when I went into the store the warranty is voided when I updated my OS to 4.3. I can only use the service warranty if I don't do ANY modification of OS or whatever on the phone even if it's from PCC or SUS. Stupid policy.
