if you not do anyhing yet like flashing or rooting i think its a factory defect. but if you has done everything like rooting and cwm then flash new firmware by odin.

I think I should go to service center.


PS: by the way I used it for three days without any problem.

When it is only 3 days new handset and u did not do any unofficial or warranty voiding works then it is always recommended to go to service centre for any such bricking issue...

... but how to unbrick

Is there anyway to revert to stock ROM. After trying CMW, custom roms, stock builds, tried it all however whenever I try to boot to system, it stays at the SAMSUNG logo screen. Won't move past that. Any ideas?
