***UPDATE*** Pulled the battery and booted into stock recovery....wiped data/factory reset/wipe cache...reboot...I was able to nav further into the UI than I was previously able to like into the SMS app and system settings then BAM...auto-reboot again and the famous "Android is upgrading..."...

Also...once the screen went black earlier the phone would reboot even after wiping it clean of absolutely everything...something somewhere got seriosuly borked...

Just did Odin to Stock...successful...BUT the phone booted up and I have the "Android is upgrading...<starting apps.>" box...its been sitting there for at good 15min+...:confused:

Once the phone boots and the pre-home screen displays ready to swipe. Once I swipe, like I'm trying to access the home screen, the entire display goes black except the status/notification bar. If I power off the screen and back on again, the swipe screen displays again, swipe it again, it goes...

My Device Info: Rooted, AT&T Galaxy Note 2 running 4.1.2...no custom ROMs, kernals, tweaks or mods, etc... The Issue: I've been ignoring the latest OTA update that AT&T has been pushing since my device is rooted. However, unbeknownst to me at the time, my phone got into my toddlers hands last...

My AT&T i317 Note 2 is rooted, no custom ROM. This weekend AT&T pushed an update so I allowed it and it supposedly completed. The next time my phone rebooted and every reboot every time after the update push, the OS would immediately boot and start "Android upgrade..." again. I got sick of it...

Meh, nm...I went ahead and just rooted to get it over with LOL :good:

I plan on re-rooting my device again very soonly (it recently came back from repair with new guts) but until then I was curious if someone could recommend an app (if one exists) that records screen activity. I found a cute app called Art of Glow that lets you draw neon, animated masterpieces but...

I'm watching the repair process online at their tracker thing and the last comment says "replaced PBA". Anyone know what that means? Obviously they're fixing it which is fantastical. This is just my own curiosity wanting to know...

Well my phone is definitely hard bricked...AT&T won't exchange my phone because I transferred tmy service to another carrier a month ago...the other carrier is run by a bunch of asshats giving me the run around...SO...I'm gonna try a Samsung warranty exchange. I can't afford a JTAG right now...

...please tell me you're joking.... I thought the jig was to bypass whatever is causing the phone not to boot allowing you to at least get into download mode or recovery....I have a feeling I'm gonna puke now. It's definitely hard bricked. I accidentally loaded an i9300 rom on my...

Got my MTV jig today...I'm charging the battery to my bricked SG3 at the moment in an external charger to make sure it has enough juice to get the job done. The MTV site said this jig will work on ALL SG's 2 and 3 so I guess this will be the ultimate test since I'm reading different things...

AND the site I was referred to for the JTAG brick repair shows a Galaxy S Jig for $8 HERE Down in the product description it says: ***Works with the Samsung Galaxy S II and Samsung Galaxy S III as well*** 1000's Sold - We sell more than anyone in the WORLD... Orders are shipped on a...

I saw a post in another thread out there about someone successfully using their Captivate jig on their S3...I went to the AT&T Warranty center today and was told that since the ph# originally on this device was ported to another carrier, they won't honor the warranty. So I guess I can try the...
