hello experts
i had followed steps to root my galaxy s2 using odin flashing and it was success, and unlocked.
The phone started well with a yellow Exclamation.
and the phone was unlocked.
after a few minutes the phone was very slow and got stuck. i restarted it.
again stuck, restarted but it dint start again. i thought battry was low and put to charge.
but it dint charge as well.
So i showed the phone to a repairing center and they said its dead.
Any help that i can start my phone again ??
Thanks in advance guys :'(
Try reverting back to the stock unrooted rom.
Go to Sam firmware.com and download the stock from ..flash it via Odin.. search ..google is ur friend..Don't ask the repairing shop again for advice (phone is dead...duh)

Can you get to download or recovery mode is the first question .

If you cannot get to download mode a USB recovery jig may help .

If you have an official stock ROM with official firmware on it, the repair centre should change your mainboard and basically making your phone brand new.

which version were you on? Are you sure the rooting went okay?
The USB-Jig must work. especially on GB. it even works fot me on ICS.
When you can not get into download-mode (odin mode) ór recovery you can't flash anything..
Hope for you that your battery is broke. or maybe one of the processors... Still got warrenty?

Hi you cant do anything unless you have download mode on you device,
if you have JTAG box you can repair your device using this.
Its normal device getting heat near charging/USB component. This is not HW problem.

He already said it won't boot normally, to recovery, or to download mode. JTag or warranty are his only options.
[A] Galaxy s2 bricked
You have to know smthng:
- It is always possible to get to download mode, if not through the button combo (home+power+Volume_DOWN), then through the USB Jig
- If your phone is bricked, the download mode might not announce itself through the android robot: the exclamation mark will persist in some cases. One indication is that ODIN will be recognizing your phone on the COM port (USB that is).
Notify me if you needed further assistance
Which instructions did you follow?
If those are wrong hopefully somebody else will see this and avoid those instructions.
do anyone kno whow to unbrick galaxy s3??
plzzzz tell me i am in need , my s3 is bricked
i was installing omega rom v4.0 and i don't know what i did and my s3 is stuck on the llogo
well if you tell us what you have done we might be able to help.....
I think you can still force it into odin with a jig. Not sure if there is a guide for this on the s3 or not.

Just hold Vol Up + Power + Home until it reboots to recovery, then restore from the backup I hope to God you made.
What version of gs3 do you have. International or us? Cause there are some people who bricked the US GS3s in an attempt to flash Omega.

you mean you cant boot into recovery or it is still stuck at the logo?
Click to expand...

Make sure your phone is off (pull the battery for 5sec) and that it's not connected via USB.
Then press and hold Volume-Down, Home-Button (center) and Power.
(In that order)
When the logo appears, immediatly release the Power while still holding the other 2 until download mode appears.
If it does not work, make sure you haven't slipped off a button and repeat procedure a few times.
If it still does not work you're officially softbricked and need a Jig (Usb-plug with an intern resistor).
They're quite cheap and several repair shops seem to have one. You can also make it yourself if you're any good with a solder iron. It really isn't hard and you can't break anything.
If you've got your hands on a jig, make sure the phone is powered off, then plug the jig in. It will magically turn on and immediatly show download mode. (If it tries to boot, turn it off and repeat, that happens if the jig isn't seated properly)
Should it remain off, your jig isn't exactly 301kOhm (several cheap ones are 300kOhm)

Have you tried what the previous guy said and got in to download mode? If you can get to download mode you are fine. Just need a rom you can install via odin or just reinstall recovery via Odin. Then wipe and reinstall another rom again.
Nuff said really. I highly doubt you have softbricked the device if you can get to the boot logo.

You should never flash a custom rom
A. if you have no idea (Clearly you have never don this before)
B. YOU NEED A JIG
and you will need a multi file rom not a single as you need to do a reparation
or take it to samsung and put your hands up and say your a twit
will cost £40
I flashed that ROM also and my phone wont even come on!! I mean nothing works

I have been using Siyah Kernel on my SGS2 for a wile now so I decided to put it on my brothers 1 day old SGS3 and when I try to flash it in CWR I got an errror saying zip could not be flashed and when I rebooted the phone all I got was a Black screen. I've tried everything but the phone wont boot and I cant get in to download mode or CWR.
Any one have any ideas before I go back to the store and play dumb ?
Use Odin and reflash your kernel of choice.

If you can't go into download mode you won't be able to repair anything...
If you have an USB jig, it should work on S3 to go to download mode

Kinda sucks
My brother came home with the phone yesterday. I put CWR on it then rooted it and all was fine. I figure I could throw the siyah kernel on it and install a second rom for him to try out.... I have been doing this stuff on my SGS1 and SGS2 for years and never had this problem. But I guess that's it. I ordered a jig on ebay just in case they wont take the phone back at the store. I guess a mod can close this thread if there is nothing else to try.
Thanks for everyone's time....
Strange, the kernel and download mode are at completly different places.
Breaking the kernel, fine. But breaking downlad mode access?
It worked for others already, so please try:
- power off the phone
- remove usb-cable if attached
- pull battery for 30seconds
-press and hold vol-down and Home button. (the latter in the centre)
- press power until the logo appears
Does it still not go to download mode?
USB jigs are pretty easy to build yourself if you have ever used a soldering iron. So if you're like me, you won't wait for the ebay-seller to deliver =)

I Have tried everything possible with the 3 button combo and cant get in to download mode. Pull battery for up to 5 minutes, USB in, USB out, everything I can think of. I cant even get to the LOGO. The red light might come on for a few seconds but nothing at all on the screen.
And all I did was:
Flash the CWR in download mode with odin, reboot(everything worked fine)
Flash su-root zip in CWR, rebooted(everything worked fine)
Made a Backup in CWR, rebooted(everything worked fine)
Flash SiyahKernel S3 zip in CWR, then got an error saying zip was not installed, rebooted and could not get boot logo, download or CWR
ask karnel maker just see weather he can help u out. as might be he knwing case of this ..

This same thing just happened to me.
I dont have internet at my house i only always use my phone. I read about the siyah kernal and decided to flash it this morning hoping that i could get hotspot to work. I did it through CW and now the screen just stays black. I got the same warning msg with a andy on his back and a red triangle. It was fine before and working normally. I had a stock firmware and the only thing that i changed about the phone was rooting it through odin. Now i'm screwed because i never had this issued with any phone and i'm tempted to take it back to best buy and blame them. I had soft bricked it about 4 days ago but i was able to fix it in a few mins after searching xda. When the phone is plugged in to the computer it does make a connection sound but the device name is not my phone. Someone point me in the right direction

Pull the battery for 30 seconds, plug it back in. Then plug in to USB jig and within 5 seconds your phone has automatically turned on an gone to Download mode.
NOTE: Some suppliers sell ****ty Jigs with a too high tolerance value of the resistance. These DO NOT work on the S3 even if they worked on the S1/S2.
I had one on the way 2 minutes after Couldn't get in download mode.

@goul0080: Please if possible measure the resistance between pin3 and pin5 of the Jig. It should be 301kOhm +- 1% tolerance. Anything between 1 and 5% may n or may not work.
If the phone still doesn't work you should check for a repair shop around you. They can use JTAG (direct access to the flash storage and other system compontents) to flash the ROM and you should be good to go again. Usually costs around 20$ afaik.

looks like mine didn't read it fully but yeah. Basically pull battery to make sure phone is off. Give it a few secs then stick battery back in. Then stick in the jig. Phone autoboots into download mode.
