Use the usb jig. Google it

It works on other models. I have googled it. It doesnt work on ours. Seqrxh for the reseting binary counter thread in general. It has veen tested not to reset. Having a jig for download mode is never a bad idea though in bricky situations.

Don't bother, its not going to do you any good. There is a whole thread that shows that it does not work.

A usb jig is still great to have in a brick situation, even if it doesn't reset the counter.

I see your point. But at the same time I owned the vibrant since day one and now this device since day one. I have flashed almost every rom/kernel available for each and have never needed a USB jig. But to a person that is some what new to flashing its probably a great idea to have one handy. Hell I may even need one eventually (knock on wood).

I believe my jig works...
When I use it it shows...
FACTORY MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-T989
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT BINARY: SAMSUNG OFFICIAL​
And I've flashed several ROM flavors and currently running Juggernaut 4.1/bullet.
Flashing roms doesnt rack it up. Only flashing using odin and only files that are not stock kernel or official files. Flashing modems or stock recovery wont do it. Any modified files will. Flashing roms through cwm wont. .

I have a jig and have owned phone since day 1. I can definitively say only flashing Odin to stock rings up my counter; regardless of a jig. Mine is currently at 4. (skyrocket btw but basically the same) Samsung removed binary reset capability with 2.3.5 and up.

Odin to stock rings up your counter? Weird vecause i have used odin to return to stock many times on t989 and its still zeeo. Only time it rings it up is when you odin insecure kernel. Stock kernel and stock recovery both nwver ring it up.

Well I flashed cm9 with nyan kernal. Realizing that cm9 wasn't my thing I decided to nand back, so booting into recovery I noticed that my recover has changed, and that my nands won't work. I wiped data/cache and by accident I rebooted
and I got stuck at Samsung boot logo, and I can't get to recovery. Odin can still see my device but it won't go back to stock. So I'm in desperate need of help.

that said i have not tested these FW's and cant vouch for the safety of using them,
I'm not a developer but hopefully they could be usefull for making a cyanogenmod for it (fingers crossed haha) or some one who has bricked there tap,

I've got a Sprint GS2 E4GT flashed to cricket and I change ROMs all the time. The only thing I lose is 3g data, but only when I flash AOSP roms, and that's easily fixed with a CWM flashable zip (link below) that I flash after ROM and gapps. And mms can be an issue, but if you do a little homework here, it can get fixed. Mod on! :thumbup:

I'm still trying to figure out how to get Cricket MMS working on ICS TW-based ROMs. I've tried numerous fixes, and either it doesn't work, or it works and incoming SMS messages stop coming through. Never really found a true fix for this.... any ideas would be much appreciated!
The only way I can get both working is on AOSP ICS or JB ROMs. I'm not bagging on AOSP (love and appreciate the work these devs put out), but I'm kind of a closet TW fan, too.

The only way I've found to get MMS working is by CricketMMS.apk
Install like a normal APK, then when you want to get MMS open the new program called "Cricket MMS" with a black messaging icon, and download the MMS as normal.
Just what I was looking for. I also had my S2 flashed to cricket....now I want to Root and install the CelstialBody rom. The first time I tried to Root it I got the yellow triangle and had to pay again to get it reflashed. Don't want that again so can anyone help me get some advice/info on a safe way to Root and install this rom....Please. Many thanks in advance. Used to have the cricket mercury....rooted and a nice rom but dropped it and broke.
You do realize the yellow triangle means nothing right? Thats just "voiding" your warranty. It will tip off your carrier that you have had custom firmware on the phone. It doesn't matter because its so easy to reset. Either download triangle away or like me just use a 2$ usb jig. Plug the jig in while phone is off and 5 seconds later no triangle and no binary count.

I used the app (no jig) to clear the triangle at boot. The Triangle Away app is free to xda members in Chainfire's thread, although he undoubtedly appreciates donations from buying the pay-app from the Play Store (it's the same exact app).

Hey there, same thing has happened to me. It however did not effect my flash. I believe it is in the kernel that you are flashing. Most roms reflash their own kernel so it doesnt matter but you can use a different cwm kernel and it will not happen.

It is the kernel. I think it's an el26 CWM direct boot. I had the same thing and your right it doesn't or I should say didn't affect my flash but I would recommend using el29 from rwilco's repository.
Hello!
So now for a few days my phone has been acting weird. When I wake up in the morning, I see that the phone has restarted under the night and now today, it is kind of dead. First it wouldn't open when pressing homebutton or powerbutton and then I took out the battery and put it in again and then the bootscreen showed twice and after that the phone worked for about 5 minutes to later be frozen again and now it only shows the "Samsung Galaxy Note II" bit before the Samsung logo and won't proceed.
I have rooted my phone and I have Clockwork as recovery and also the mod app2sd to change so my sdcard is the default one. I can access download mode but not recovery.
So I'm hoping for a answer from you guys, how should I "unbrick" it? I still want to keep the stock Samsung ROM. I might agree to add a custom Samsung ROM that only have been bricked because I kinda like the Samsung ROM. But mainly, I want my phone to start!
Regards, DarknessSky

And does that mean I can't fix it myself?
My warranty is still "active" but I have a rooted phone with CWM and the mod "app2sd". I have used Triangle Away to change the flash count to 0 but when I was "inside" the phone and viewed the phone status it said "modified". Will Samsung notice these things or might they just flash a "working" ROM and then send it back?
Thanks in advance!
It's sds. It can't be booted up without replacing motherboard.
If the counter is zero and binary is official then there should be no issues. If they asking you questions related to rooting which they probably wouldn't just act like a complete ass.

I've got another question that is related to Samsung... When I send my phone in my motherboard then is "broken", right? Do they actually take the time to replace it or do they just send another one? How likely is it that they just send a new one? I've also have a problem with my 3,5mm input because it is too big.

It's safe to. There have been a few reports that say that SDS occurs with the latest ROMs, and it's been confirmed that if the symptoms start before you flash the relevant updates, there's nothing you can do.

i just need to know what does this mean. i have the same case this guy has.......woke up this morning and phone was on first splash screen and not responding nor allowing recovery mode.
i never rooted it and to my surprize when i enter the download mode i find ODIN!!!
so does this still mean it's an SDS with the motherboard thingi? or can i just flash my first custom rom and get thru the day easily? please advise!
