[Q] does anyone send their bricked tab for repair? - Galaxy Tab 7.7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi guys! was wondering what to do before sending it to Samsung for repair, would u need to cook a story up ? flash back original firmware etc. ?:angel:

I had mine unrooted by adix_82 bro at his shop opposite SLS before I send in mine to service centre. When I called to ask what they did to revive my bricked tablet, they claimed to unbrick mine tab, reflash firmware and replaced the faulty mainboard, it is still under warranty so it's free of charge.

How long they took ?

There is another thread around here starring a few solutions. I think the one that works for most is to pull the battery for ten minutes or more.

[Q] Need to return phone for service

Hey guys I've been searching google.com and xda forums for the last 3 hours trying to find a way to unroot my phone so I can bring it in for service. My phone's speaker broke and I get no sound so I have to bring it into the store. What would you guys suggest to do? I don't want to use Odin cause it's not recognizing my phone and I don't want to trip the counter using the .tar Any help please!
Got to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342348
Follow all instructions exctly and your phone will be 100 percent stock no root
Well first thank you for your reply. Ive been trying this method but I can't get Odin to detect my phone in download mode. It detects it when the phone is booted. I've reinstalled drivers and rebooted computer nothing has worked. Any suggestions?

Did you flash cwm? If not and all you want to do is unroot that's simple..install a root file explorer and delete superuser.apk. now they can't tell you rooted the phone.

Why don't you brick it instead?

if its just a speaker, they most likely will just replace the speaker.
Make sure you backup anything you dont want to loose, they may wipe the phone ,
I got a laptop back one time, that just needed a new keyboard, they wiped the damn thing, retards. ( this was way back before i was smart enough to do all that myself lol )

Weird, my warranty replaces my phone for free if it won't even turn on. Plus, there isn't physical damage.

There is a 1 year manufacturer warranty. Against hardware defects.. excluding water damage

I bricked my Apollo months ago, took it to carphonewarehouse and told them it doesn't boot. They repaired it for free and I got a new one.
Hard bricked is very hard to get out of so go get it repaired

@The person above, that's probably because you had a warranty.

it will hard to get them to do anything if the tablets is bricked after it was unlocked, which voids the warrenty.
let me know how it goes
all i know i aint buying any more asus tablets
went wuth my galaxy note 10.1 and never looking back
#.1 unbrick time!
#.2 don't worry about it, just unbrick
#.3 find a tool to unbrick it, if you can't, buy a nexus 7. It's Asus but it's the best tablet you can get ATM.

N5 stopped working

I had my n5 for 2 weeks and when I tried to turn it in this morning it got stuck on boot. Anyone else had that problem? I contacted lg and I send it in for repair.
Sent from my LG-P769 using xda app-developers app
You mean stuck on the Google boot screen or the boot animation screen? Either way you could've fixed it using adb to restore to stock using factory image, the tool kit, or simply go to your recovery and wipe data/ factory reset. You didn't have to send it back to lg if you can still access fastboot and do any of the method above.

You had to start a new thread for this? Why not use the existing RMA thread?

Because I was mad and didn't think! That's why I opened a new thread sorry.
Just wanted to know if others had problems like it.
No I'm not a noob ,
My N5 was not rooted and will not be.
Thanks for the qualifying and unqualified answers.
