Well if it's 'brand new' I think this forum is wrong place to be asking.
Best bet = return to place of purchase - hopefully they will on the spot swap it for another.
Good Luck !

if you can get into download mode just use kies on it but most likely faulty tablet just return it and tell you got it like that, even without warranty the store will just give you a new one

Did You get a new one or was it sent for repair?
I had same issue on my sgs3 when it was 3 days old and the store refused to give me a new one.
Took 2 weeks to repair it as they had to wait for a new motherboard.
Not very good customer support...

Cost of fixing/replacing screen?

Hi.
how much does it cost to fix/replace the screen of the galaxy nexus device? i dropped my work's galaxy nexus and the screen is cracked with a small hole near the edge of the screen.
the phone seems to still work and the screen is still responsive as ever but actual screen casing is cracked.
I dont think its insured by work but just incase , how much is it to repair/replace? Same cost as the device? i hope not as im already stressing about it lol.
Who would fix it? Samsung themselves or do i ask a specialist?
I am based in london by the way if that helps.
thanks
id suggest you fix it yourself, just buy the sreen which is about $250 :s, but hey its at least not as much as a new nexus
taking the phone apart the device is quite easy try using these links here:

And if he send it back to samsung its gonna be 160$.... at the moment its not worth to repair it by himself.
Youll need to wait for the price to go down if you want to replace if yourself.
Yea i seen the prices of the digitiser and it aint cheap. they start at around £160-£200

How can I fix this?

I have paint peeling off and was wondering how I can fix it without replacing the whole screen, do not want to spend $200+.

In Canada with Rogers, bought it off someone on a trading site with no receipt. Am I completely screwed?
Pretty much..
Might not be screwed. Its seems as a deficit. Call Samsung. Might still be able to do a warranty claim.
sent from 1 of 4 att devices ( Cappy, SGS2 , Note , or SGS3)

If you get no result with samsung warranty you can try to buy a new screen on ebay and replace it. Since the faceplate is glued to the screen its the easiest way i can think. Be sure to buy the screen for the i747 not the international version or it won't fit. Theres a lot of video on the net showing how to replace screen on s3.
So did u ever get it fixed or replaced

The New GT-MS4: 100% totally 1:1 samsung s4

Hi gentlemen, I was strolling along the streets of hongkong apiu street when the sale's man in the zopo shop introduce me a brand new s4 clone, GT-MS4. I had no idea what brand it is but I was told it is a Taiwanese brand.
I was totally blew away.. it look exactly like the galaxy s4.
Did anyone know much about this monster?
the salesman was selling normally at hkd3100 and lowered till hkd2600.
I couldnt find much info on this gt ms4, can someone shed some light on this, whether it has custom tomorrow etc? I got to fly back in 2 days time, so i have 2 days to consider to buy this

BestBuy fawking rocks i467

Found the right best buy employee. She had this working in an hour 0
Took the 4.4.2 update and it went to crap.
Stuck on download or connect ti kies page
You're stuck on this right? A couple of questions then.
Have you rooted it at all in the past?
Have you at any point installed a different custom rom?
This should be able to work for you.

Yes to previous root but in an attempt to recover any system files it now says custom firmware below the stock and binary section of download mode. Recovery screen no longer exists.

Took the 4.4.2 update.
Rooted same day.
Phone was stable for 2 or 3 days and accidentally got left on. Since then it's only showed a connect to kies screen.
Tried original kies
Kies3
Sidesync
And emailed corporate US, China, and Japan asking for help and/or md5 and no one replies
Willng to pay upfront just to show how serious i am about the $100. If it doesn't get resolved in the time agreed apon I'll simply ask for a refund
Bestbuy fixed it. Took 4 visits and 3 different employees but it's going now
Any way to create the md5 file they used to repair this? I'd like to share the heck out of it in hopes of helping others with stuck devices.

Did your Digitizer (touch screen) partially die? How long did it last?

Mine died within 5 months. Lost 2 "rows" of capacitance:

My lower part of the screen stopped working immediately after switching from Stock Rom to Custom Rom. On Stock worked without any issue at all for 2 months, immediately after switch became faulty.
