So I'm going to exchange my infuse. I have the shipping labels already but my question is, I told them I bricked after updating to gingerbread, they never asked how I updated or anything. I told them my issue, and they issued the labels, my thing is, I didn't tell them it was after updating to ucbl3 and that I was rooted, I have hacking stuff on the root of the internal sd card, will they refuse to help me because of any of this?
Lol, Your making absolutely no sense at all, None what so ever. Odin back to stock using GTG Ultimate Unbrick then ship phone back. Simple as that!
I probably should have added I have bricked it. I can't get to download and I only have 3e. I have exhausted every download mode option, but let's focus on my question please? Thanks though.

If they unbrick it themselves and find the phone has been rooted they won't replace the phone. I hear a lot of ppl saying a usb jig may unbrick the phone. Google it.

I have personally never heard of a truely bricked Infuse. Even without a jig.
What have you tried to get into dl mode?
I have tried the volume rockers, all variations of it. Battery/no battery. Holding both, inserting battery, then cable. doing cable then battery while holding rockers. I've tried doing the adb way, but it wont show under attached devices. Basically, no matter what I do, as soon as put in the usb, it always boots to SAMSUNG screen.

It is extremely unusual for this to happen. I can tell you how I do dl mode if that helps.
I remove battery
Hold down up and down volume
Insert battery
Insert USB cord connected to PC.
Chances are, if you send the phone in like that, they will see that you voided your warranty by rooting it and you will get charged full price for the phone.

!?!?!?!?!?!?! NOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Ok i had the same problem. Nothing worked, not even a jig. But, there is a website called mobiletechvideos. The head guy saved it from the brick, and found out my usb port was broken (replaced for free, did no good ). Going to trade in my infuse for another infuse when we get the note. The service is 40 dollars, but heck its better then taking a risk and paying 530 or whatever att says it "lists" for.

Do what he says. You would be a fool to send it back as it is. It can be fixed. You don't want to pay full price for that phone and att will charge you for it.
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
They dont really care, man. I dont want to give you bad advice, but I went into a device support center today. The phone was rooted, and I even had superuser in the app drawer, and CWM recovery flashed. The people arent even smart enough to realize that it was rooted or custom recovery was installed. They tried to flash it with the stock recovery tool they have, and it bricked. They gave me another one.
Honestly, it is in their best interest to just intake the phone. They strip it of all working parts, take it all apart, split them into bins, and create new refurbished phones out of them.
Is this an AT&T exchange? If so, they generally send you the replacement phone first, and then with the shipping label in the box, you ship the phone back.
There is that chance though. I hate to see anyone pay full price for a phone when they don't have to. Att gets enough money from their customers.

Has anyone bricked their Skyrocket after rooting it, sent it back to Samsung, and had luck? I imagine they have so many phones coming in/out that they might not check. Ultimately, just hooking it up to their JTAG unit and reflashing it.
But, I'd like to know if anyone has had any experiences with this.

k, thanks. So it seems like they will replace them. I'm wondering if I should say that Kies died during an update or if it just died and won't power on.
Battery on your comp died or you dog tugged on the cable mid update

bricked mine. wouldnt even turn on. couldnt get recovery or download mode. sent it to samsung and they marked it as a faulty pcb and replaced it.
Be very very careful when your flashing. Don't flash in a thunder storm, in a car, or while your moving. Make sure your phone, your computer are charged. Make sure your USB ports work your cables are good. Make sure not to move your phone, hold your phone while its flashing. Be sure to read and read again before you flash.
Check double check every file. Make sure your downloads complete, make sure its for your phone. Read other post and learn from them. And you won't have another bricked phone.

Hard bricked mine the other day. Went to at&t said it turned off when I plugged it in and they gave me a new one right away.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Just came back from At&t Device Support Center and they fixed my bricked Skyrocket in less then 10 minutes. The chick giggled when she saw it was rooted and said I shouldn't do it anymore. LOL. If you're under warranty still, go to your local center. Maybe they'll fix it even if it isn't under warranty. Might depend on the person though.

going to see will they take mines and switch it out the same day, I bought my skyrocket with broke screen from my friend, he said he accidently kept the phone old one, so I bought it for a reasonable price, if they take a look at the IMEI will they say something about it being not sent back, I mean I been using it for awhile now, I say about 2 or 3 months. Hopefully they'll switch it without problems or asking for my account, but some how I know they will what do yall think?

Yeah, JTAG might be my first, I dont get a upgrade till February, hopefully they'll replace it, Im going to seee today, when I get time and with my girlfriend, I hope the warranty is still good though
Well I accidentally flashed a GS3 rom on my skyrocket and I'm pretty sure its bricked. The phone stays black and doesn't appear to power on at all. I am unable to get into recovery or download mode to flash in odin. The flash was a clean install and I had formatted both my emmc and usb mounts.
My question is should I bother taking it in to att or will they know that I've had it rooted? Or should I just bite the bullet and send it in for a jtag and pay around $70?
If it won't power on it could be any number of things from AT&T's perspective. It's worth a shot to see what they say.

warranty it, just play stupid and say it wont turn on and you dont know why, and dont mention anything about flashing a rom
Definitely a hard brick. I'd take it to AT&T first, tell them you were in the middle of the firmware update (act dumb) and the phone just turned off and wouldn't turn back on. I've heard stories (see edit below) of AT&T-owned stores calling corporate for guidance as AT&T's update was implicated, then just pulling out a new phone and handing it over well after the 14/30 days are up. More likely, they'll refer you to Sammy to have it warrantied out. Nothing to lose by trying at least the AT&T store first, as a one-day turnaround and free replacement is a better deal than waiting for Sammy to do their thing and send you a refurb, or spending the money on JTAG.
Edit: Stories. That's it. Haven't seen it happen. Your mileage may vary.
Thanks everyone. I'll head to att tomorrow and give it a shot. Will report back with outcome.
Take it to att if its still under warranty and play dumb. If it won't turn on they won't know its rooted or other ROMs have been put on. I'm sending this from a phone that was replaced under the same circumstances you're in:thumbup:

Nice! Out of curiosity, what did you say? Turned off and won't turn back on? You can answer via PM if you think they might see or anything.
That's it. They tried to turn it on, called a tech guy, still couldn't get download mode and that was it. Just don't talk and use short answers to the questions. Take the sd card out, of course. They send a refurb'd phone, less the back and battery. You then send the old phone back in a prepaid envelope that comes with the re furb. Pretty painless

Exactly. I told them it froze up during the official update and wouldn't turn back on. Just played stupid. The funny thing is that I accidentally left my sd card in it and I know that I had a folder on there named "rom_flashing" lol. I got very nervous when they saw the sd card, swapped it in the new phone and booted it up. I told them I was in a hurry and took the phone then bounced out. :good:

Wow.
Not only are you hard-bricked, you hard-bricked after you were warned in your last thread to stay away from international ROMs.
There's nothing you can do but return it and hope you can get a warranty replacement. There is currently no fix for your predicament.

Nope, Ill tell you what happened. I have been having problems with the evolution mods kernel rebooting my phone, after i tried the "fixed" version.
So i flashed the full firmware from the 1.55.602 update (im running a stock rom with bloating removed) and i removed the hboot from the zip. Since im running a custom hboot with the text removed. Thinking i could just reflash the stock kernel.
i flashed it, did a fastboot reboot and now its deader than a hammer.
no charge, no usb activity, no turn on. dead as can be. Ill take any and all suggestions. I know my way around pretty well, so im surprised that its bricked. But its the first M8 brick, unless someone has a clever idea?

So i had edged up from my M7, ended up selling that for 400. Got the M8, had 2 payments made, bricked it. So i had to pay off the 500 on the edge. Now whats interesting if you early payoff the edge, you are out of contract, COMPLETELY. So i ended up with a free standard upgrade, so i was able to edge again. thats a FYI if anyone is interested. Kinda sucks, but i made my money back already fixing computers this week. Any idea what i did wrong, i have flashed M7 & M8's & DNA's so many times....I know my way around. Im still baffled
