No worries, cheers for that. They've decided to just bring the phone to the service centre anyways and see what they say.

If the phone still unregistered the ewarranty..better ask your family member to bring the buy receipt along as a proof of purchase.

Put the battery back into the phone. Without power the phone on..press the three button combo (power, home and volume down) for download mode. See if you can go into this downlosd mode or recovery mode (volume up)
If cannot go into either one mode then you need to send the phone to service centre. Doesn't matter if the phone rooted or not. Service centre will revive back the phone for you.

Call Samsung Careline and quote them the phone imei number. They can tell you if the phone is SME or AP or non-existant (clone)

Thanks to the otais. Successfully root my s3 on firmware 4.1.2 smile.gif So, what's next? tongue.gif

Install Titanium backup app and start backup all your apps and data.
If you already have custom recovery (CWM)..do a full backup for your phone (Nandroid)
Install KTool app and backup your phone efs/imei.

btw please compare it with note 2, no need compare with s3, sure lose 1
camera maybe win @@

Red and white..glossy finish. Have enough of glossy with S3.
Wanna try something different..that's why take black coz it's matt rubberize finish biggrin.gif
Performance on par with Note2. Beat the hell out of S3 in every department except maybe battery. But no worry..the S4 will unseat this Butterrrfly...lolz
Below the Quadrant and CF-bench and Antutu. All on original stock rom.

what ??? no NFC ???
LTE is acceptable but no NFC, totally don't know what to say

how about wi-fi direct ? sometimes I found wi-fi direct is much better than NFC, can send more files than NFC and take lesser time to enable and send whistling.gif
*
Yup..no NFC. Soooo yesteryears...lolz
Wifi Direct and Hotspot both got. Best thing is when the back cover full of smudge..i go and wash the phone..haha.
But cannot submerged like Xperia Z. Maybe later when Sony release next month..sell the Butterfly and buy the Xperia Z tongue.gif
