2 days ago i found a sgs2 on the ground outside at the city. the screen is totally ****ed but it still works. so i thought cool, who ever lost it, should have been more carefully, but honestly i dont care.
but when i turn it on, i can se its on cynogenmode but i cant use cause of some screen password. i have tried everything from re flash og several types of roms, including stock, cynogenmode and exonys, but all appear but it wont install new rom. i cant enter factory mode, cause when i try it says need password. so i cant do a hardreset. i have searched the net for everything, and i have tried almost possible ways to get around that screen lock, but nothing works. so how can i get rid of it??? when i press volume upp with home and turn on button it askes for passworld, when i do it with volume down, i get into odin mode. i have tried 0000 and 00000000 but still dont work. any one can help?? pls

hi all. I have a huge problem. I tried to fix the lag by using the file posted here and it didn't solve the problem so i tried to delete the lag fix from "remove" option on MCR program then it went to black! Ok, here is the important part. When I rooted the phone, I used sdk option to root the phone as my buttons were not worked for recovery mode (newer version i guess...) and now , as i can't use the sdk option to make it recovery mode, i can't fix the brick problem!! Can someone pls get into this? I purchased this phone from ebay and set up the phone for last 3 days....if i don't sove this, I'll be in trouble..Thanks all!
Get in to download mode flash stock odin and you be good to go

Have you tried this? This works for me..
For recovery mode this works for me,
Remove battery
Install battery
Press and hold vol+/vol-
Press and hold power button
Once you see the Vibrant Screen do not release any of the buttons (vol+/vol- and power buttons) it will go black then back to Vibrant screen, then you release the power button only but keep pressing the vol-/vol+ buttons... this should get you into recovery mode..
For Download mode this helps me,
Remove Battery
Plug in USB cable to phone and computer
Put Battery In.. wait a couple of seconde until it shows the battery being charge..
Press and hold the vol+/vol- and the power button..
This will power up you phone.. once you see the Vibrant screen and it turn black, release the power button only.. this should get you into DL mode (it works for me). good luck.
Well If you have the hardware locked vibrant you are out of luck. There is nothing you can do

nope ur ****ed... call tmobile and tell them to send you a new one.
one last question. I already set up all email acc and contacts..so if they fix it , are they able to see all my emails (i'll change password stuff but old msgs) and my contact lists? This is a privary reason tho.
it works on my T-mobile Vibrant.
just wipe the phone before you give them for another one

After you get to download mode SEARCH for odin 2.1 stock flash(its in the vibrant bible too) and you are good to go.

my mother just bought an sgs2 about 1 week ago. she is not that expert in phones and all that, but she has a serious problem now. she made a lockscreen code witch she cant remember now. stupid right. how can u bypass it or dissable it. i must say i have tried my self almost anything i can think of
this is what i my self have tried:
factory reset / hardreset didnt work
flashing stock rom again, didnt work
flashing 3 custom roms didnt work, to mention with root kernels
and no my mom never made an gmail account. she only uses it for calling and sms
so what the hell is there to do??
or do i need take to a samsung service center???
You're likely looking at data loss by factory resetting and overloading it with wrong passwords from recovery mode.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17039887#post17039887
Though you say you've factory reset already and it didn't work - what didn't work?
when i did factory reset and rebooted the phone, it went okay, and i thought i had dissablet it, but no, when the screens turns black and u want use it again, the lockscreen keeps apper
Can't you just disable it before the screen turns off then? Settings --> Location and security --> Set up screen lock --> None.
no when trying to dissable it asks for the code, u must enter the code before able to dissable, im stuck, what should i do
I just noticed your thread [Q] screen locked, need help.

Only thing I can suggest is to unlock the bootloader then install a custom rom that doesn't have crapblur
Try the following:
Need a MotoCast ID?
Go to Settings > Accounts on your Motorola Android phone and select MotoCast ID, or visit mymotocast.com and download and install the MotoCast desktop software.
Grabbed that from their Website. Should be able to create an account once you download the software it appears.
I had similar grief when I had my sim card replaced even though its the same service number, motoblur actually pairs the SIM ID + Service Number to your Motoblur accuont... which I find is ridiculous but it is what it is.
Power off phone. Hold down power and volume down. Release power when you see words across the top and scroll down to recovery mode. Then select wipe data / factory reset. Reboot and create yourself a motoblur account. As soon as you pull your sim card though it will ask you to log in again

ya but like i said that is another problem, when trying to unlock the bootloaders, when it says to hold vol. up and power....it just boots up...it wont do none of that, and that motocast has nothing to do with this problem, i cant even go 2 settings anyway
that does not work eather...it wont do that eather
Do the volume buttons actually work?

yes
When motoblur setup comes up, can you hit menu and add an APN to get 3G data?
Try holding up/down Vol while inserting the battery, keep holding till you get into rsd or fastboot - depending which button you press.

So I just sent my S3 looping through the air crashing in my bathtub. Although dry, it seems to have killed the display. I'm unable to unlock it. Which gives me some problems when it comes to accessing my data which is on the built in memory on the phone. This media transfer thing does not let me access the data when the screen is locked, and the touchpad doesnt seem to work
Ideas?
Thanks

I have one idea may be it works,very difficult if u r new because it may void phone warranty...
That is
Install cwm recovery by entering download modo which appears by volume down + power button+ home button
And then make back up in ur as card...
That's it...

On my Samsung Galaxy S3 (d2mtr) it keeps giving me a "Mobile network not available" error whenever I try and make a call. I can go on the web and social networking apps; download apps. The only thing I can not do is make calls. I looked under settings and saw that "Network Operators" is not available to enter. Any ideas on how to fix this??
EDIT: My IMEI number does in fact show up. Idk what is wrong with this.
EDIT: NEW PROBLEM. I was reading a tutorial about flashing back to stock firmware and it said to downgrade my bootloader. I used the recovery flash method and now I have a black screen. Can't do anything. Turn off, turn on. Just stays black with no response. Someone help fast Please

No sir I can not just stays on a black screen.
Plug it in your wall charger and leave it for 15-20 minutes to charge. Then retry. Maybe your battery is discharged. I've read similar posts. Good luck!
If you've flashed the wrong bootloader or it went wrong then you have a hard brick. Try a usb jig, but probable you'll need a new motherboard.
