    phone bricked while doing adjustments

    i think this will be an important topic

    often newbies like me who have bricked their phone have to go through a lot of tension that they have damaged their cellphones and it wont start again
    same happened with me

    many of the users say that if u debrand ur cellphone using xs++ or farmanager u loose ur warranty but thats not the thing man

    if u brick ur cellphone go to ur nearest customer care or service center and give the phone to them and say its not working any more

    Pls note - u should have warranty of ur cellphone going on

    when i tried this trick they said it would cost around 80% of my cellphones cost to change the whole motherboard

    but as my warranty was there i was not charged for doing the change

    so whenever u brick ur phone go to ur nearest customer care center

    and let me tell u there is no chance of the customer care unit telling u that u have void the warranty by doing internal damage to ur cellphone

    bcoz the engineers are not able to track what we have done to our phone as it is totally bricked and nothing on this hell earth can tell what has happened

    Re: phone bricked while doing adjustments

    i did something similar already...

    bricked my W810 because my main flash file was corrupted.
    i don't really know why it got corrupted, but i downloaded the same file again and it differed in size by a few KB.

    anyways.. phone bricked. didn't respond to anything i tried.
    went to a SE Shop ("Service Point") and said something like "i went to bed and next day it was powered off and i cant turn it on. charging doesn't work too. so i came here for repair as i still have warranty and need my phone..." or something similar to that...

    well after a few weeks i got my phone back :)
    its not really my own phone, but A FREAKIN BRAND NEW ONE!!! :cool: :D
    weird thing is that it has the same IMEI number as my old phone (compared the IMEI of the phone i got after "repair" to the IMEI written on my purchase bill)

    maybe they wrote the old IMEI into the new phone as the old one (meaning the IMEI) isn't in use anymore because of the bricked phone?!

    however.. i'm happy with my brand new W810 :D
