Heartbreak. I had this problem with a Captivate, never did figure out a solution (link below). I ended up getting an insurance claim denied (which was 100% my fault since I didn't know the rules and unwittingly told them I was attempting to claim outside the 30 day window) so I invoked the...

I just came in to edit my post to say I saw that it was Refurb. I will let my buddy know about it, not sure how he'll react to a Refurb but he loves my phone so maybe he'll be able to get past it. Thank you!

Can I ask where you got it for $0.01? I have a friend looking to switch to AT&T from Verizon and get the AGSII but he's much less interested at the $200 price point as he is at the $0.01 price point.

I haven't been able to get it resolved, I actually just sort of gave up on it and went back to my old phone for now. I have insurance so I'm not totally screwed, but it's not that cool obviously. Were you able to get anything resolved on your end? If so I'd love to hear how. The one good...

To everyone that has sent in their phone for repair under Samsung warranty: has anyone done it without reverting to stock first? I have a defective USB port so I can't use Odin to revert to stock, I'm running Cognition 2.1.6 on the phone. I've also had the random shutdown issues. Clearly...

Edit: It looks like this is a hardware issue and I'll likely try to get it replaced via insurance since I cannot revert to stock using Odin. It is impossible to revert without using Odin right? Thanks to all who read! To start, I just want to state that I've searched and searched for...
