funky_ace 16 Report post Posted December 31, 2012 There are a whole bunch of people who provide JTAG service in Gaffar Market, Delhi. I don't know about other areas though. They normally charge 1,500 for a phone and time taken varies from device to device. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

funky_ace 16 Report post Posted January 1, 2013 Actually I know about JTAG service availability in Manish Market even though I live in NCR. Couple of months ago I bricked my handset and was looking for a fix over the internet. At that time I found a person who got his bricked handset revived at Manish Market. They took Rs 800 for it and gave the handset back to him in one hour. Now this is an old news and I don't know if they do same thing now or not. Localites can try it out. Don't forget to post your experience here just for the sake of awareness. @tomemmanuel : Success rate is 100% as far as I have heard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funky_ace 16 Report post Posted January 2, 2013 Update: I would like to update my last post. The success rate isn't 100%. My friend recently bricked his handest and went to a local repair shop to get it fixed. But according to the local fellow JTAG failed on the device. Here is the ebay lisitng for the same : http://www.ebay.in/itm/Samsung-Galaxy-S-II-Epic-4G-SPH-D710-16GB-Black-Smartphone-/190777464488?pt=IN_Mobile_Phones&hash=item2c6b3916a8 Not trying to advertise, just updating my post so that no one suffer because of it. Better safe than sorry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
astrokidvaibhav 37 Report post Posted January 3, 2013 Hi guys.. Got the information about JTAG.. I asked the dealer and he said it could cost anything between 1500-2000 depending on your phone.. @tomemmanuel: I asked about Nexus and Nitro HD.. He said ki Nexus confirm thik ho jayega but LG Nitro HD ka puchna padega.. Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funky_ace 16 Report post Posted January 3, 2013 Price seem reasonable. Similar to Gaffar Maket people. I suggest the owner to watch the whole process if possible. Sometimes these people take out original parts and remove them with cheap chinese parts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aalok 442 Report post Posted January 3, 2013 nobody, offering these kind of services, let you (customer) in to their shop/workbay to see.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
astrokidvaibhav 37 Report post Posted January 3, 2013 Ya that is right.. Nobody will let you see what they do.. The guy told me that JTAG procedure supposedly uses a JTAG Box which he is planning to get but doesnt have as of now as it is costly and bricked phones seldom come for JTAG.. And the procedure is complex so there is also a chance that your device can get fried.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dev997 62 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 Hello Guys !!! I stupidly hard bricked my One S by updating over OTA with Supercid applied few days back. I searched and found that the only way to revive phone back to life is the Jtag unbrick service. I searched online and found that mobiletechvideos.com provide that service from US , but for that I'd have to ship my phone there.Then I searched on local sites for someone offering this service here in India and found couple guys but all of them are in Delhi . I stay in Pune , so would really appreciate if those are nearby in Pune or Mumbai. I also found few guys on a forum mentioning shops at Manish Market,mumbai providing this service but there were no contact details.Does someone here know any good/reliable person who can provide Jtag service preferably in Pune, but even Mumbai will do.If yes, what would be the service charges. Guys I talked in Delhi are asking for 1200-1500 bucks for this, but I saw that shops in Mumbai do this for 800 bucks.Thanks... really appreciate any help !!!

tomemmanuel 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 For Nitro HD a local guy having medusa box is asking 3K+.But he is sure that it can be unbricked.He said the rate depends on how hard to connect the wires.He charges from 1.5 to 2 k to 8 k for a Galaxy note Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent while mobile. Thanks for the suggestion mate !! Yes I've seen reviews that Josh can do it , but I'm little apprehensive about sending the phone to US when I can get the same service in Delhi (confirmed and reliable) . I wanted to have this serviced in my presence so, only Mumbai and Pune can be possible. Also sending phone to US and back + service is gonna cost me atleast 70-80$ while can have it unbricked in Delhi for 1200-1500. Any reliable Jtag unbrick provider in Mumbai ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanishkGandharv 46 Report post Posted January 24, 2013 I offer jtag service including shipping back of the phone. LG nitro is unsupported and will take some time to resurrect. @funky_ace supposed to aware of me? Josh is a very talented person. He is in regular contact with riff team and many other and so do I. Unbricked an unsupported phone I.e. the EVO 4g LTE of a friend which was bricked due to Hboot downgrade. Took some time but in the end was happy and its now officially supported phone in Thr list. Time depends on the nature of work beind done on the phone including soldering/exploration of jtag etc. Also the gaffar guys doesn't bother about the physical condition of the phone while opening it Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am supposed to get my Charge unbricked from you as soon as I can get time. @all: Kanishk is one the dependable people considering the JTAG services. He is much better than those Manish Market people who are known to rob the phone of their genuine parts. If you have a bricked phone then do try his service.

astrokidvaibhav 37 Report post Posted February 5, 2013 Even I know Kanishk from another forum.. Haven't had any dealings with him but he surely came off as a nice guy from all the helpful posts that he does.. You can get the phone unbricked by him.. I can get it done from Manish Market but I am dealer or anything and I'll just be the handler.. You will have to pay the shipping and repair charges.. But since Kanishk does it himself I think he will be the better option for unbricking your phones.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont think the problem you are having here will be resolved bi jtag, it looks like a hardware fault instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanishkGandharv 46 Report post Posted February 17, 2013 1 more achievement here, finally repaired the latest LG Sprint Optimus G(Worlds First, isnt even supported by any JTAG group yet) after a week of work. But its working now , m posting this because the members can understand that it takes alot of time for messing around with unsupported phones. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
