[Q] ROOT Problems - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had a problem when trying to root my phone.
I followed all the instructions exactly, but after flashing the kernel with Odin and XWKDD_insecure.tar, then the phone rebooted, it showed the yellow sign and then went on a loading loop (just keeps showing the samsung and carrier logo)
It didn´t reboot back into its OS as it was supposed to.
How do I fix this?
I can turn it off and it shows the recharge icon (when rechargin).
I tried putting into download mode and that does not work, i get a screen saying:
android system recovery (3e)
with 4 options:
reboot system now
apply update from sd card
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
Also has a warning
# Manual Mode#
e:falied to mount /preload (no such file or directory)
e: install_application_for_customer: can´t mount/preload

You have to follow the instructions exactly . Do it again from the start .
I tried putting into download mode and that does not work, i get a screen saying:
android system recovery (3e)
PLEASE follow instruction you are putting the phone in recovery mode not download mode .
If a retry fails you will need to flash a new stock rom first .

Thanks for the quick reply
Problem is, when I used superoneclick the phone was in download mode, problem is now when I press volume+home+power it only goes to the mode android system recovery (3e) not download mode.
How can I flash the phone if I can´t get it back to download mode?

AS i said you are not following instructions .
DOWNLOAD MODE as posted.
HOLD Menu + Power + Volume DOWN down as in the bottom half of the volume button.
Instructions are not use super click in download mode phone should have rebooted .
jje

Thanks again, I did get it back to download mode an retried to use odin as instructed but again when the phone is supposed too boot, it just shows the yellow sign and then goes on a loop.
Can I use XWKDD_insecure.tar with the Korean version of the phone?

Have you tried to Leave Odin Open. Then Plug the USB. While the USB is plugged in and Odin running press and hold volume down + Home + Power. Once the black screen comes release the Power Button.
i tried several times. odin just seem to see it. the first box never turns yellow.

missed that
never mind...
3e would require a update zip from memory .
If you boot to recovery it will say update from xxx
I don't actually know what the update consists of on SGS3 tar zip or what format .

try pulling the battery out then put it back in. push both volume keys at the same time and plug in the usb cable. it took me a couple of attempts but it worked. if u still cant connect with odin, then just push both volume keys and press the power button. at the next screen push up volume then connect to usb. have odin already open and ready to start. if u need the stock firmware then follow this youtube video @
youtube.com/watch?v=aNb4CKSy5U8.
But you will have to download the firmware from sammobile site itself rather than using check fus downloader as it doesnt work.

You can't do anything of use in stock recovery. You need a USB jig to force download mode

Need help phone stuck in boot

Hi,
So i tried to update my galaxy s6 edge t mobile to the latest firmware and once it did, it got stuck in the samsung screen and wont boot. The phone was rooted before, and now it just stays stuck. I have restarted the phone and now I have tried flashing the phone using Odin. It keeps saying failed and it shows the following:: " SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 2, BINARY: 1". I have tried downloading the firmware but it just keeps failing. When it updated, it should have updated to 5.1.1 since thats the latest which means i cant just put any other one right?
I dont know what to do to be honest, if anyone can help me i would really appreciate it.
anyone?
Have you tried using Smart Switch to restore Stock firmware?
There are a few solutions mate
1st One:
1) Put your phone into download mode using "Volume Down-Home-Power" combo until your screen comes into download mode and still hold it untill the screen goes off.
2)Quickly switch to recovery mode using "Volume Up-Home-Power" in the black screen and get into recovery
a)if it loads something and says erased... please start from the 1st step again
3)Wipe cache/ factory reset do these things in the recovery mode then reboot.
you should be good to go. If not theres another solution.
--------------------------------------------------
2nd One:
1)Put your phone into download mode.
2)Connect ur phone to the computer via usb and open smart switch
3)Press view more button on the right top.
4)Choose the 1st option as "emergency recovery and restore"
5)Put your model and serial number (its on the backside of the phone)
6)then follow the instructions of the smartswitch
thats it

Ok so my phone stays stuck in the samsung screen and smart switch stays stuck saying connecting to your device. i really dont wanna try the factory reset thing because i havent backed up the files on my phone
Ok so i got to flash it with 5.1.1 using odin but once its done it keeps staying stuck in the samsung logo screen....again.
Just did factory reset and still gets stuck at the damn samsung logo..
I am willing to pay if someone can help me solve this issue
I also noticed that once the downloading portion of the phone is done, it says installing with the android robot picture, then halfway it says erasing and then it restarts and gets stuck at the samsung logo
=(
you need to do wipe cache and, wipe data and factory reset. That erasing part is normal. Your phone is not bricked. That android robot portion just verifies the stock recovery and partitions. No problem with it. just wipe cache dalvik and everything what you can find (there are 2 options already) on the recovery.
