Verizon warranty? Sent phone. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

So I bricked my phone and called Verizon they sent me another one and I'm sending the bricked phone back. Will they know that it was bricked and charge me or will they think it was a defective device? Anyone know?

They will probably know but I'm sure they are use to it. They didn't charge me when I bricked mine.

I managed to do the same thing. But I was having actual hardware issues well. Got back to stock using a debrick image.
Found it on a video off of YouTube.
This is the video. My phone, the power button would randomly be "pressed" when I wasnt touching it. Could not stay in download mode for more than a few seconds and phone would not boot after used mobile odin to flash stock. I tried to flash in odin on pc while it was in recovery for a brief few seconds, this really screwed it. Used the debrick image and then was able to get it to stay in download mode. Flash stock rom. Back to stock and ready to be sent back to verizon tomorrow!!

I am new to this phone. I just got it 2 days ago and I rooted it and flashed Miui. I have Premium version as well but when I go and look for ROM updates its acting like Premium isn't installed. Any ideas?

Verizon SIII Repair

My friend was flashing his phone and flashed an image for the wrong model.
Does anyone know if the boot loader can be flashed via an SD Card on a verizon phone such as mentioned in the documentation floating around for the I9300?
Thanks,
Kenny

It doesn't do anything just sits there with a solid red led when I connect the charger. No display or response to button combinations. So it's bricked as hard as can be lol
Not sure of the rom off hand.
Maybe Odin back to stock?

Yup. You need a jtag service. They usually run 50 to 60 bucks. That's pretty much your only option.

Did the same exact thing to my phone. GNAJtag(or play dumb with Verizon)
By the way wrong thread

Just my two cents, don't play dumb, own up and pony up the cash to get it fixed.

[Q] Bricked after using Mobile odin

Bought mobile odin, did the check md5 option then next then I know screen is black and phone is unresponsive.
Computer does recognize the phone because it makes noise when I plug it in.
Cant get into recovery or download mode.

Won't hurt to try this unbrick method for people that have flashed an international rom on their VZW GSIII.
Thank you! This looks promising.

Good luck! If you need help with anything, here is nconfer13's thread. nconfer13, Cnexus, and edfunkycold are the main three "in the know" if you get stuck.
That worked! !!

[Q]Random shutdown

I bought this phone recently and i have realized that it shuts down randomly when i try to use 3g a bit...Does anyone else have the same problem?
Same question: do you have power saving turned on?
Sent from my GT-I9105P using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Can that be causing the random shut down?
He had that issue caused by power a saving so he ask always if it is on.

Flash another firmware, mate, that's the only thing you can do

Actually it's my sister's phone and she doesn't want to void the warranty. Do you think, sending it to the company would help in anyway? I know that the problem seems to be in the firmware..
Flashing back to stock Rom actually brings you back your warranty =="

Apply OTA update in ADB or fastboot?

Anyone done it on the any of the 2013 droids? How would I go about it? If I remember correctly our stock recovery doesn't have the adb option.

Stock recovery does have the option.

Can you or someone please post the kit kat download file and tell us how to install the upgrade through the stock recovery??
I haven't received it. Kind of annoying that so many have gotten it and nobody has posted it. Nobody has an obligation but someone always has in the past. Some googling has come up empty as well other than some statements about the DCMA.
