[Warranty] Got my bricked note back!

Hey Folks!

I think its 4-5 month's ago that i bricked my note with ne emmc brick bug. I used a custom pit file to get rid of the broken parts, it worked for a few month's but then the problems came and came... Firstly the note freezed randomly on every leaked rom! Then a few weeks later my phone wont charge. It said 0% Battery and the screen started to flicker and everything came reeaaly slow and when i plugged out the AC Adapter the phone died instantly...

After all this problems i thougt: maybe a new rom will help... this was a fatal mistake... i reinstalled CM9 (Stable)... everything was great, but then on the first boot. Behm... Bootloop.. Restartet to Recovery and i cant believe my eyes.. the whole /emmc, /data, and /system partition.. they were just dead.. i cant do anything from this point. Even other pit files wont work, the whole 16GB were bricked to 0Byte!.

So i decided to give my phone to Saturn (were i bought it, i live in germany). But then i rembered that i installed a custom rom.. and eh.. the custom binary download counter was 19.. So i needed an USB JIG. I just built one by my own with an 301kOhm resistor and it worked! After that i gave it to Saturn they said they have so send it to samsung i said ok. And today, exactly 14 days after i gave it away i got it back! i was impressed.. they replaced the whole mainboard for 0€!!!

I looked for the firmware of the MMC chip.
Type: V3U00M
Date: 09/2012
FwRev: 0x0e

Brick Bug?
NO. Sane chip.

Sounds good for me :)

After i installed my apps, facebook etc.. i tried to take a photo and bam! Camera Failure! Restarted the phone.. same... i know much about electronics and i have much knowledge so i opened my gnote and freed up the mainboard. Then i saw they forgot to plug in the camera flex cable... Idiots... I plugged it in assembled the whole thing together and wuhu now everything works perfectly!!

If someone needs help to reset counter or something else, just send me a pm ;) Sorry for my bad english, im german :$...
