After the pushed Samsung UI 6.1 update, it's basically bricked my phone. It's out of warranty & my network provider or Samsung are uninterested in helping. I can fix the phone with a new logic board myself, but its the data on the phone I need. [br]
[br]
Now, I can only get it to initialise charge or boot into download mode if I've cooled the logic board. I can also turn on the phone that results in the stuck Samsung, powered by Knox logo & that's it. Anyways, I know a way of getting the device to boot, which is by flashing an older firmware excluding the CSC so I keep all the data intact for recovery. However, as soon as the logic board gets warm, it bricks itself again. Now, even connecting the battery again but not powering on or on charge causes the logic board to get warm, not hard just warm.

So, now you know the situation. I want to know, how can I best keep the logic board cold whilst powering up odin to flash the firmware? Because if I pop the logic board in the fridge or freezer for 20 minutes, it lets me open download mode, odin & it does start to transfer files over, but it stops & gives an error & that's because the logic board has got warm again. So I need the best way of keeping it cold, short of putting it in ice water so I can flash it & recover data? Because its the warmth causing it to brick itself every time.
