My ATIV S won't work (blue screen of death?)

[andreluizcardona]

Hello guys,

I've a Samsung ATIV S with the latest Windows Phone 8 update (the one that came last week via the dev program). Today I've turned off my phone while using the Here Drive app. After some time I tried to turn it on and to my surprise I got a blue screen saying that my PC needs to be repaired. The screen is exactly the one that shows up on Windows 8 in a PC when the system has the BCD corrupted.

I've tried to hard reset (volume down + power button) but it won't work. Does anybody has any tips? Any way to recover the OS? Any help would be greatly appreciate!

Thank you,

Andr?

Volume down + power button combo is just a soft reset. Check on below thread for the hard reset key combo.

That's interesting, thanks! Do you know if I can use it for my device (sgh-t899m)?

my windows phone happened on that too, I also tried to re program but it didn't work also, :angry: and I really don't know what to do? Does your phone okay already?
