Hellow , im sending my phone in due to my speaker, going in and out. I assume I just flash back to stock. But is that, the only thing I need to do? Thanks

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.

well samsung has sent my phone back, it is in transit, they said they replaced the speaker. just thought i would give an update. i should get it wed.

[Q] Won't turn on

Hey guys
I have a mate whose SGS i9000T will no longer turn on, it is about 5 months old, battery is fine and just died while the screen was off, was not even being used. The last app used was browser. Can't get into Recovery or download modes and the backlight doesn't even register while the AC is plugged in.
Any suggestions would be great or is this a hardware fault? which too me it sounds like

Theirs two possible reasons for this bud....1, custom firmware incorrectly flashed. 2, hardware. I had the same problem and I had to send mine off to Samsung, if you blame the damage on Kies, say after the update it wouldn't turn on they will fix it for free.

Cheers for the reply,
The only things applied were a lag fix that was weeks ago though so i doubt that is the problem, sounds like hardware problem then

No custom kernel or anything? And it just died? Does he tend to drop his phone a lot?

In that case I'd put it down to hardware bud! Are you in the UK? as we have dozens of Samsung service centres, just blame it on Kies if I were you, say after the update it wouldn't turn back on, and they'll fix it for nothing bud

Doesn't work! I tried to brick mine in all possible ways I could imagine, and the far that I get was a screen with the LG symbol and under "error!!! Check morning call". I never lost the access to ARS...

Ask kholk, he seems to have done it.

if its under a month old, you can take it back to where you brought it for a new one, they cant refuse under a month

This is how i bricked mine abut didnt get a new one. only got it fixed : put it under my pillow before going to sleep. woke up the next morning to surf the internet, and the screen was black, and the phone was hot as fire sent it back to get it fixed, and it showed that the head card was replaced, so they didnt find out that it was rooted ether

How many of you actually spotted someone else carrying a galaxy mini ?

Got the idea of this thread from nexus 4 forums, i thought we should also share our experiences about this.
Well, I actually saw only 2 times, someone else also using sgm, one is my friend and another in a cyber café a guy was using there, he was using stock gb lol
Share your experience guys !!

It's a very common phone in Hungary. I saw about 50 guys with it. All running stock GB or Froyo (people still use froyo here WTF), except for one guy who had official CM7.

know a few and all are on stock gb...it makes me sad ..
i feel really bad for them...

i have seen dozens of people with galaxy mini running go launcher :laugh::laugh:
but more prominent one is galaxy ace :cyclops:

So people still don't know about what our mini has got
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium

i saw many people using mini maybe like 20-30 people.. i also rooted and installed custom roms for them coz i just couldn't see them running froyo :angel:

Uh... 10-20 times in phone shop. All of them running Froyo, and one Hipster girl is running CM10.1 (i guess, but i see she is pulling down the statusbar and it's really look like CM10.1).

there are only 3 people have mini on my campus, me and 2 others. 1 using froyo, 1 cmx and now I revert back to emanon..

Crt animation is not there on ny phone, may b that's why he was asking
Sent from my GT-S5570 using xda premium

Oh, i remember, some months ago my charger was damaged somehow so when i ran out of battery and tried connecting charger, mini gave no response, i thought my battery is gone, so i went to care center and asked for new battery, but when they tryied with their charger it started charging.
Then the guy there started to show me that device is all right, by switching it on
Then what he saw was completely shocking for him, first he saw that splash screen, device name written galaxy mini written instead of galaxy pop (in india)
He asked me if i imported the device lol
Then when he saw the bootanim he was again shocked, i was using nexus bootanim that time, he asked me what's this? A nexus? Lolz
I said i just changed the bootanimation, he looked confused
Then what he saw was completely out of his mind, it was cm10.1
He didnt evn recognised android 4.2 and tryied to unlock it like other devices touch and slide anywhere on screen. He saw completely different ui, blue battery icon asked me which os is this, i showed him android 4.2.2 in about phone
Then what i did was, ran out of there to my home back before he asked me anything more, but at last i told him, dont worry u wont understand

Don't go tp cc for flashing stock they don't know what flashing is
All they will do is, connect ur phone via kies, since custom rom don't get detected by kies it won't work
They will then tell u some useless things (they have to tel u something at last) like u need to get new motherboard cuz usb port not Woking and blah blah, they dont know wat odin is
