[HELP] My SGS2 is Stuck in update - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Korean Galaxy S2 (SHW-M250K). Last night i recieved an update message KI06 on kies. I started update.
But after downloading update in PC the update process stuck at 3% while flashing the phone. After an hour i removed cable and tried to do emergency update but it was still stuck at 3%.
I tried to flash KG5 with odin but it was also stuck at FSimage.I tried to download again.
Now my phone can go in download mode but PC cannot recogenize usb. and USB not recogenized message appear.
Please HElP what to do?
Is my phone bricked or there is some way to flash it.

Now my phone can go in download mode

Then you aren't bricked.
You'll need to reflash using Odin to what ever firmware you were using.
As long as you can access download mode you aren't bricked. It may be a little difficult to use odin if you never have.. But rest assured, you are not bricked.

I have ODIN mode on my phone but when i connect the USB cable to pc, my PC does not recogenize usb. and yellow pop up message of "USB not recogenized" appears. so i cannot flash it it with ODIN or Kies.
I have to solve this USB problem to proceed. Do you have any suggestion for this.

Ok
I am on my way to figure out driver problem.
But there is one more thing.
My orignal firmware was korean. But now after unsiccessfull Odin flash my Download mode Screen and "Firmware update failed" screen has changed to english version. Is there a possibility that Odin curropted my Phone modem .

Also one more thing.
I cannot charge my phone because whenever i connect usb or AC charger the computer and mobile icon with yellow mark appears.

modem has nothing to do with the language settings.
update may have changed the firmware, just go into settings, language and change it back.

Yes it can be changed but right now my phone cannot go past " Firmware upgrade encountered an error. Please select recovery mode in kies and try again" screen.
Also i cannot flash because windows is not detecting my Phone's modem correctly.

Windows does not need to see your modem to flash .
My orignal firmware was korean. But now after unsiccessfull Odin flash my Download mode Screen and "Firmware update failed" screen has changed to english version
Fairly simple answer you have flashed a non korean firmware .
What is this Odin mode on the phone is it Download mode ???

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
I wonder if you have the right instructions to follow ??Or are you flashing a wrong firmware .
Personally i would take to a service centre and tell them Kies broke it .

Ammm, you are flashing an incompatible rom on your phone
You should refer to the [SHW-M250*] Korean Galaxy SII M250S / M250K / M250L Users thread for advice on your phone, the firmwares posted in the link above would not work.
Be careful man

[Q] HOW to restore phone from unsuccessful flash?

Hi All,
I tried to flash my friends i9100 (it had arabic 2.3.4 firmware, but i didn't write down the exact firmware number), to I9100JPKI1 2.3.5 1 file update. But it gave "FAIL" result in ODIN. After that phone got stuck on Download screen. I removed battery and restarted the phone. And after it got stuck on the following screen (pic at the end of post)
I tried to flash it again by odin but it's not flashing (Attached pic of ODIN after unsuccessful flash below). Any ideas how to restore the phone?
it seems connectivity problem. Have you tried another USB or another USB cable?
Yes, tried different cables on different computers. The phone is booting with this phone-warning triangle-computer logo immediately. Even samsung logo is not coming before it.
Are you able to access recovery mode? If yes, try to do a full wipe.
EDIT: Try to Kill all process of Kies, and see if Odin recognize your phone
No, it's stuck on this screen. i can't put it in Download mode. Even if i start it: Volume Down+Home+Power this screen is coming.
ODIN can't recognize the phone.
Ouch, I see repartition and a PIT file, that usually means the phone is really dead; a job for the service centre.
Which guide did you use?

Did
1) Turn off your phone. Unplug it from your computer etc
2) Hold down home, power, and volume UP. This will enter recovery mode. If you are using CF-Root, you'll get CWM recovery. If not, you get stock recovery. It doesn't matter which appears.
BUT phone is not going into recovery mode.

I think that you need to leave the phone to Service Center.
The thing is that the phone was bought in another country, so there is no warranty in my country for it. That's why i'm searching for solution myself.

I had a problem weeks ago with my phone too. Tried a lot of things and nothing fix the problem. But when i was losing hope, i found the solution by myself.
My problem was only IMEI number and i recovered it. I think that your best choice is read a lot before take some decision. And the most recommended choice is leave the phone to Service center.
Good luck!
Maybe JIG will be useful to put the phone into DOWNLOAD mode?
P.S. : I am keeping going to Service Centre options as a last resort.
If there is any way to get Odin to recognize your phone there is still hope. Try to get into download mode in all possible ways, sometimes it seems lost but suddenly you get in. Make sure Kies is not running in the background.
If you cannot get into download mode, even with a jig, and Odin never recognizes the phone, it is a job for service centre or JTAG or something, but not yourself.

Finally, Alhamdulillah, i solved my problem of i9100g flashed with i9100 firmware. First to go out from "phone - yellow label - computer" mark i flashed it with i9100g original kernel Kernel_I9100GDZKI1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276105&page=3. after that it became possible to put the phone into download mode. after that i flashed it with ODIN USING PIT FILE FOR OMAP4 from the same forum and with i9100G new firmware. and that's all, phone is working again.

[Q] Read all the posts I can find and I still can't flash with odin! Please help!

Hi everyone,
I brought a new galaxy s2 phone about 4 weeks ago and it has spent most of that time soft bricked since I tried to update it to the newest firmware, K14....
I am using windows 7 starter, 32bit. I have installed kies, uninstalled and re-installed kies, tried uninstalling kies and just using the drivers.
Recently I did a clean install of windows, installed kies, as more drivers seem to be recognized and downloaded odin v1.85. I restart the computer, start task manager end all processes that say kies, run odin as a administrator, put the tar file in pda, only auto reboot is selected. I then plug in the phone, in download mode, wait for yellow box and press start and the process only goes as far as boot.bin.
I have tried all of my usb ports and the only difference is the number of the modem installed driver and how far along odin gets. With two ports it only goes as far as setup connection which was as far as anything went before I re-installed windows. I have replaced the usb cable and made sure the phone battery is fully charged. The phone was put into usb debugging mode before it was bricked. I have attached a picture of what drivers get installed when I plug in the phone. The firmware I am attempting to flash is the uk 3 version off the firmware page of this website.
Please can somebody give me the solution it is driving me nuts!
Sorry for waffling but I figure you need to know what I've tried so that I don't waste anybodies time.
Thanks guys
Did you try a different stock rom? Did you try a different pc? Or if you want to, flash a CF-root kernel. Then boot in recovery and flash a rom of your choice.
The flashcounter will start and stock roms can't be flashed this way (at least as far as I know).
Is your phone a I9100 model?
I ask this to make sure you are trying to flash the correct firmware for your device.

Hi Lenny,
Yh, i have tried it on my desktop which runs 7 home premium. Clean install with same results. Tried the K14 firmware a few times but that never got any further than setup connection. Don't understand the rest of your post sorry. Can you do a flash for dummies thing? And is there a firmware you would recommend trying?
@ aceofclubs -the box says i9100 and so does the sticker in the back.
@ JJEgan - the first cable I used was the one in the box and while the one I have replaced by ebay, they had good feedback. The K14 firmware was given to be by a user of the galaxy s2 that he had successfully flashed with.
Does the phone look to have installed correctly, the guy who gave me the firmware said he had abd appear in device manager, which I haven't got. Also after the phone is finished installing drivers if I click in the system tray, the green icon that shows devices that are present is not there and neither is the phone but if I go into device manager samsung composite device is.

No you dont need a ADB neccesarily for flashing. ADB (Android Debug Bridge) is a tool that comes with the Android SDK that allows you to control and interface with your Android device. Well do u have the phone specifications before bricking it, like Model No, Built, CSC, Kernal Etc.
First try to uninstall Kies and Install the latest version, so that you have the latest drivers.
Check the Intratech thread on Stock ROM ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278) and download the correct rom.( I presume you have I9100 Intenational Version of S2). Open Odin 1.85, do not change any options, brownse and put the stock rom u downloaded into the PDA section and click on start button, you should be good.PM me if you have any issues.
The above didn't work. Here's what I got:

AS you have the yellow box in Odin you have the drivers all the firmware in that link works .
run odin as a administrator, put the tar file in pda, only auto reboot is selected. I then plug in the phone, in download mode, wait for yellow box and press start
Lets do this the right way just to be sure . Open Odin put the tar file in PDA
go to download mode at first screen download mode on phone follow instruction ( vol up from memory ) after next screen connect Samsung USB cable to phone and PC .

Thanks, think I've done that anyway but, just to check, what do you mean by next screen?
The screen when you are in download mode and press volume up.

So close! I plugged the phone in and got as far as cache with the green progress bar showing just the tiniest bit. Left it for over an hour but the bar didn't move at all! Encouraged I restarted the computer to try again only to find that now the computer and odin won't recognize the phone until I uninstall and reinstall kies and always hangs on cache. I restarted in the first place as the phone never shows in the system tray. Sorry to be a bore but have you any idea why everyone else can plug in and flash and my machines refuse to! I welcome any ideas you have. Thank you.
Instead of Odin, you could try Heimdall. Maybe that will work for you.

hey hope everyone had a good christmas and new year. Still no joy, where do I get PIT files to flash with the newest version of heimdall to go with our firmware? The newest version won't let me add files until I enter a PIT. I tried version 1.1 but I couldn't get it to recognise a compatible device.
On the odin front: I thought I'd cracked it. It started flashing, took hours but I had half a green progress bar and then it just seem to freeze. Also this seems replicable a few times and then I get stuck at setup connection again. I then have to do a system restore to get it to flash to the furthest point again. Does this give anyone any clues? Or does anyone know of any heimdell packages I could try? And the long shot, any way of getting firmware on to an sd card and flashing that way when a phone is soft bricked?
Sorry if I'm annoying you but there has to a way round this. I brought a rooted one to use while this is sorted, love the phone but need to know I can update and be able to sort it out if things go wrong.
Thanks again for your help and suggestions.

[Q] Problems after Odin flash [with stock ROM]

Hey everyone...last night I tried messing around with some Samsung official ROMs and some really weird things happened...:
I tried a Android 2.3.6 ROM (from a Samsung Firmware page) - it kept enabling/disabling my SIM card constantly.
I tried a Europe (general Europe I guess), it kept restarting my phone on start-up (boot loop).
I installed back my Vodafone (Spain) 2.3.5 ROM but now Samsung Keys says this device cant be updated trough it! (before I started messing around with it, it used to say "no new updates found").
Originally my idea was to have a Samsung stock ROM that is not carrier-based (Europe region though of course).
But now that I'm having a "white circle in the lower-left of the screen" problem I also need to keep my Vodafone ROM installed.
Any idea how to fix the "cant update trough Kies" problem? =/
Thanks in advance.
P.S. I took a look on the Stock ROMs posted here on XNA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278)...any recommendation for a generic Europe ROM?
Anyone?
I'd like to know this too. Im on Vodaphone UK and after flashing the carrier branded firmware from these forums (BUKJ3) the same as i had out of the box i can no longer update with Kies.

I've managed to do it in end. Here's what I did:
Go here: http://fus.nanzen.se/ and download version 2.1 of the PC program.
Use the PC program to get the firmware for your device/carrier.
Use Odin to install the firmware and then enter recovery mode (Up-Volume key + Home key + Power key while turning on) and format your Data.
That solved the problem for me and now Kies allows me to update the device again like before. ^_^

Hello!
First I want to tell you that are new on this forum and wish you a Happy New Year!
I am the owner of a GT-I9100 Samsung S2 Galaxy a few months, was branded by Orange Romania.
Yesterday I wanted to make him ROOT indicated in the forum they have found.
Everything went well the first step, with Odin, after restarting my phone remained on the screen S2 Galaxy <Samsung GT-I9100> and below yellow triangle with an exclamation mark.
I went to step 2, .... and <Waiting SuperOneClick device> after 10 minutes nothing happened .... so remained.
I clicked on the window and he appeared in the top left corner, after the program name (Not Response), that something is stuck somewhere.
I tried to resume operations, but without succes.
Can anyone tell me how to flash it or how I can put a ROM you can use something?
All I can tell you is that Kies was the last version and the phone was updated daily by Kies. (Unfortunately not noted version)
You advised me to do?
What I have to say is that in some versions of ROM writing software gives me error and squares is red. (That in ODIN).
Thank you in advance.
Your best bet is to start again from the beginning. You can find branded and unbranded firmware here...
Unbranded firmware
Branded firmware
Flash one of them using Odin (as instructed in the thread where you download), but make sure that nothing associated with Kies is running. (Open task manager, look at processes and kill everything that begins with kies.)
Once your phone is working okay, to root just use this very simple method...
Easy Rooting Toolkit
First of all does your computer have the Samsung drivers installed and/or adb drivers?
If you want to root the easiest way is to flash a kernel, cf root is recommended for rooting you can flash this via odin.
This will give you Cwm recovery so you can flash roms via recovery on your phone.

Guys ... do not laugh at me, but now another problem arose.
First I want to thank those who have answered me.
So ... let me tell you. Finally I managed to pass the problem occurred, but now appeared to me another. I managed to i9100XWKDD_i9100XXKDH_i9100OXXKDC_HOME.TAR satrec error and install the phone.
All well and good SWITCH only lasted a lot, about 15 minutes after the restart after installation.
Once started I did a hard reset.
At the start I have seen a lot of lines written in red so a lot of errors.
Finally they did not want to restart my phone, I only appear GT-I9100 Samsung Galaxy SII and NO yellow triangle.
Did not want to do anything. After about 10 minutes I decided to try again with Odin. Now it's surprise, the ODIN not want to recognize my phone ..... can not do anything with phone ODIN!!
When the download get in step (volume down + home + power) Were it says "current binary: OFFICIAL SAMSUNG" is this a problem? Before there was writing "binary power: CUSTOM"
Unfortunately the PC does not recognize the phone when the USB stick, I say it's not recognized.
What can I do?
Can I do anything with it at home? Or should it go on it for service?
What would I be able to attempt to revive it?
Once again thank you in advance.

is strange that neither you put your PC does not recognize USB cable in, it says USB DEVICE is not recognized.
I am desperate.
Fault of phone or USB drivers on PC .
Guess its a part flashed firmware f888 up phone .

Hi!
It seems that the PC recognizes other devices when connected.
The only explanation is that something happened in the phone.
In order to reboot, I only appear in red script.
It seems only able to make phone to communicate with any PC.
The only way is to make micro SD card.
At the "Volume Up + HOME + POWER" gives me the opportunity to do reboot or update using the SD card.
Can anyone explain to me how to do? And we need that?
Thank you.

[Q] Odin fail!! need help!!! >< samsung s2 i9100G

i was trying to flash ICS 4.0 firmware to my samsung s2 I9100G Malaysia just now... but failed..
then i try to unplugged it from my computer and pulling my battery out from my phone..
when i try to reboot my phone it shows up a black screen with a phone connecting to a computer with a yellow triangle warning sign between...
how can i quit this mode!! omg!!!
Hi there
Check your usb connections please, one of the most common and unmentioned problems with ODIN is that it doesnt like being connected through hubs or non usb2 ports, i failed with odin quite a few times, until i disconnected my phone from the usb hub and connected it directly to the pc usb2 port, everything was fine after that.
Odin doesnt usually fail, what files are you flashing, is the firmware a 1 file package or multiple files with a .pit file??
If its 1 file, make sure you untick repartition.
Odin is solid, i would ask you to go away and check all the above, use odin 1.83 which is the best version i found, then try again, also check your lead, sometimes cheap usb leads are designed for charging and not syncing.
Good luck
---------- Post added at 12:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:45 PM ----------
also the black screen mode is because the flash failed, you need to re enter download mode, and reflash until you get a pass, if it fails again, check md5 sums or download a generic s2 firmware and try again, its not bricked dont worry, as long as you do it right it will be fine.
thank for ur info.
anyway to get the hell out of the black scren??..
i connot re-enter the download mode... keep stuck in the black screen with a phone connecting to a computer with a yellow triangle warning sign!..
Can u get into clockworkmod recovery?
Press Home+volume up+ power key until you get to cwm recovery.
And yes you probably connected your phone through a hub or usb1 port.
If nothing else works you'll need a jig to restart into download mode. Try and look for the jig thread on general sgs2 forum for free locations.
That's forced download mode I.E. it's forcing you to flash something. Get a stock rom from Samfirmware or Checkfus & flash it with Odin.
Absolutley these guys are right, even if your flash has failed you should still be able to enter download mode, are you sure you cant, VOLUME DOWN, MIDDLE BUTTON AND POWER BUTTON, keep them all held down and it will boot to DL Mode, every time mine got a fail i still got to dl mode no problem.
Failing that yer, get a jig, usually they come from singapore, so if you cant wait that long pop to an electronics store, buy the resistors you need and a micro usb plug and make one, i made one yesterday and it cost me £1.40 to make, although its a makeshift for emergencies, it will do until the one ive ordered arrives.
Keep trying dl mode, no reason to not get into it.

^This.
Also, OP, make sure you are flashing an I9100G firmware, and NOT an I9100 firmware. Likely that was the cause of your predicament in the first place, as that is the common cause of this screen being reached.
That sounds like a brick software, I get some like this time ago

tried to flash the phone from ODIN and failed, most probably he done it wrong. The only thing the phone does is displaying an icon in the middle of the screen with a phone and a PC and an exclamation point in between them. I can`t get it to enter in download mode (volume down+home+power) and I can`t start it eather. It just stays at that icon. Kies is not recognizing the phone although the drivers are installed. When I pluged the phone for the first time in the PC it automatically instaled 2 drivers and that was it. Is it bricked? I haven`t seen this before.
The phone is an SGS 2 model GT-I9100G, ssn I9100GGSMH.
I hav downloaded 2 official firmware, 2.3.6 and 4.0 .. all is Malaysia..
flash so many times and keep failing..

I have the same problem and if it was actually in download mode properly then why won't ODIN detect the device????????????????????
I am trying to get clockworkmod onto the device. And the phone does nothing else but show that screen no matter how many times I do button combos etc... Maybe you should stop ignoring the guy when he's saying IT ISN'T WORKING AFTER HE HAS TRIED THE STEPS THAT PEOPLE WHO "KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING" HAVE PROVIDED.

Depends on what you have already tried flashing since you originally got into this mess in the first place.
If you started blindly flashing stuff for any which device, it's possible you have borked your device to the point where your PC will no longer detect it.
Say, if you tried flashing a Fascinate ROM or similar to a Vibrant.
I'm just guessing that's what happened, because you started this thread in the Fascinate forum.
The Fascinate and the Vibrant are two completely different models of phones. The Fascinate is the Verizon variant of the Galaxy S, and is a CDMA phone. You have a Telus version of the Vibrant, which is a GSM phone.
So if you flashed something out of the Fascinate forum to your SGH-T959D Vibrant, you likely caused this issue yourself. And why are you in the I9100 forum trying to solve your problem?
Go to the Vibrant forum for your problem with your Vibrant phone.
Use Odin
