Just curious if anyone has tried Jtag service fix or with own Jtag device on a hard bricked Note 8? Would be good to know in case someone hard bricks. And if no one has maybe someone who hard bricked could try it out? Ebay offers Jtag fixes for hard bricks.

Well I guess not. I message few guys on ebay who offer service. Dealt with them in past and have high stars in the thousands. He said they haven't got a hard bricked Note 8 yet.

Not bad deal $8-10 bucks to cover shipping and if they are able to restore it $30. If unable then no cost just shipping. I don't plan on risking it yet far as things that could result in hard bricks. But I know there's some people out there who already hard brick.

If anyone has success who is hard bricked please let us know.

Honestly it should work. The guy I msg even said they've been able to fix every samsung hard brick device before Note 8. Note 8 just so new and not many people have had hard bricked.

Hoping someone who has hard bricked tries and reports back.
I have done a few for folks in the past and its not really that difficult unless there is hardware damage...you can make your own by watching a few YouTube videos...some just use the z3x and or Samsung pro tool software on a box same way to unlock devices...they make money for almost nothing...I have been thinking about taking it up locally...not sure yet though...Google some vids...try it yourself...save some $$$

Wow dude I didn't even know about this. Definitely looking into this. If you do decide to do it locally and have success. Maybe let us all know please. If I get a hold of a hard bricked device, will try myself.

I brought in a dead Note 8 to Samsung service center(UBreakiFix) and they changed charge port and battery. Still would not charge. Then they changed mainboard and now works fine...It's less than 1 year since release so aren't all Note 8 under warranty(unless physical damage or water damage)
