Samsung Jig

---

Hey guys and gals,

Just wanted to update everyone, the micro-usb jig that worked so well on the captivate also happens to work on the Note. Just tried mine out of curiosity and it worked. Plug it in, wait 3-4 seconds, vibrate, download mode...

I had not seen this posted anywhere in here, so just in case someone hard bricks this epic device, we do have a backdoor...

I wonder then, can the jig be used to reset the flash counter to zero?

My Samsung Galaxy Note™ is smarter than your Honor Student.

yes it works to get you into download mode which is fantastic however it will not aid in resetting the flash counter like it did on the SGS2

and BTW this isnt considered a development, this actually should have been opened in the General Section....

They are physical micro-usb sticks that are meant to help you recover from a bricking.

can you tell us where to get one ?

or where did you get yours for how much?

Request mod to move this to general.

This section is for development only! Please post information in the general section

You can buy them off of ebay, or at least you used to be able to, or you can build one. I built mine from an extra data cable I had laying around at the time. It forces the phone into download mode, which is very convenient for those of us that flash roms at will.

This one is a fancy version of the home-built kind, mine is pretty rough, but it does the job and that's all that really matters...

I bought one from: http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerc...load-mode-jig/


I tried it on my Note and it gets to Download Mode fine. Great device incase of a brick that disables the button combos.
