nopee. bring it to service center and tell them it happened after using KIES.
theres no way unbricking it yourself.

There are some methods like riff jtag box but many would find this hard to manage and hence, it's better to contact Service Centres rather than messing up ur phone yourself.
You can also try USB Jig.:sly:

Yes they will because securities are off. Check out the development threads and download the stock (e.sprint) image zip. Youll need the PC36.IMG and stock unrooted rom. There is a helpful guide that will help you as well. Good luck!
Probably depends on whose checking it. How would they find out? Do they plug it in to something and it tells them?
Perfect thanks. I have the s-on tool and the ruu zip. Hopefully goes smooth

well if nothing else they could just boot into recovery and see for themselves
Really they just make sure phone turns on and that's it. They are sending it out to be refurbished and reload software.... but unrooting should not take so long

You didn't follow directions or bother to read. I suggest you read about jtag or buy a new device. Next time read before make such expensive decisions.
We can not help, only you can help yourself by learning from your mistakes.
It seems this is not your 1st time with this mistake.....

[Q] A real challenge for you guys...

Well, first of all hello to everyone.
the issue is that i updated some app and the smartphone lost all signal, then i checked the IMEI and it appear this 00000000000, so i was like what happened?
Then i started reading and i should have a EFS folder so i can recover my phone but nothing, my phone is rooted and using root explorer and looking everywhere i can NOT find EFS folder.
What can i do then to recover my original IMEI? My Gio is dead? Thanks in advance.
Try installing a custom.rom maybe i dunno honesrly

i think the repair cost wont be so expensive..
so why dont you repair it first before buying a new one??

Service center won't be able to fix you imei, no one can. You have to get a New phone unless you backed up your efs folder...

Maybe service centre can fix it if the guy made a note of imei number otherwise buying a new phone is an only option left

Hey my phone is rooted but I don't have a backup!!...I also already have Hemidall already downloaded so what is the next process??
I've never used heimdall, I have Windows but go to galaxys3root.com and there is a guide there on how to root. Just follow those steps and it should work. You will lose all the data on your internal sdcard though

Did you install that from the market? If so that app has bricked countless sg3's including mine. That app should have a warning or just be removed from the market its terrible, there are other ways to get beats installed without bricking your device!!

I agree DO NOT USE that site. But my main reason for visiting this thread was to say Beats sucks. Get good headphones and PowerAmp and you should get way better sound quality.

Well this isn't a very helpful forum.because no one seems to help each other out around here and the sgs 3 forum was a lot more willing to help people and get things sorted.....
Or maybe there is hardly anyone who has this phone
