Hey guys I really need some help here. I have a Samsung Ativ S with GDR3 installed but I decided to reset my phone and after It boots up again the phone is stuck on a black screen after that. What do I do what happened




please help !!!!!!!

If there is nothing I can do and calling customer service doesn't work if there someone in New Zealand that has either an old 8X,920 or Samsung Ativ S that I can have?? I'll gladly pay help!!

Same thing happend to me, try another hard reset from key combination and eventually you will get to the welcome screen. The method is described here

happened to mine as well, I had to hard reset around 10 times - either the screen went black or i could not login with my outlook account and i had the 8007049a error in the store.

I had to revert to GDR2 to have a functional device again

Another workaround is to hard reset and choose not to restore settings. You keep GDR3 but of course, you start from scratch with the phone.

I had the same problem today and removing the SD Card worked for me.

Edit: I have some news on this, don't hard reset your phone on the black screen just leave it and it will reboot and go into setup just fine. My guess is that it's just reinstalling the Samsung apps that ship on the phone :smile::sweaty:
