hello guys..^_^
how are you.. I hope all things are good with you ^_^
actually I have a problem with my GS2
first thing I want to tell that I had decided to change my rom from odex to deodex one..
I had looking for a good one amd I found that Gangsbread is the best..but it doesn't work with my rom which is JPKF2 so that I had to change it to XXKH3 " a raw rom".. so I downloaded it and tried to flash it on my phone but it didn't work..
and I tried to switch my GS2 on but it doesn't work
I've downloaded the JPKF3 raw rom and tried to flash it.. and this what happened to me every time I tried to did it "the pics is within the attached files"~_~
I did with a different roms wuth a count of 33 but it doesn't success.. *_*
and now I have a message on my GS2 screen saying that..“Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again”
please can I do anything to fix it ?
thanks for your time
You've put kernel on bootloader option?
You were supposed to download a .tar file, select it on PDA and flash, no re-partition

I have a raw rom and this are the files come within (attached pic)
the same person told me to use the kernel file with the bootloader and now my phone doesn't work *_*
thanks
the same person told me to use the kernel file with the bootloader and now my phone doesn't work *_*

Gangsbread never heard of that one .
and now I have a message on my GS2 screen saying that..“Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again”

Asad4334 did you actually read the thread that JJ asked you to do. I would stop trying to use the files you download and get your stock rom for your phone and reflash that so you are back to the state when your phone was working. Those other files do not even look like GS2 firmware or kernel files.
Thanks JJEgan I won't trust that forum anymore..

Hmm Asad I think the files you initially used may right royally screwed your phone. They look like they were SGS1 phone files. If they were then I think your phone will require JTAG repair.
Let's hope there are more people with better knowledge can help you.

I think you can forget about the Deodexed Rom for now. You need to get back to stock. Looking at the pics you submitted. You may end up having to go Service Centre and have it Repaired. Be prepared to pay for the repair as well.

Can you post his name? Whoever told you to do that needs to ****ing get banned.
And ridiculed for being so ****ing stupid.
i have a question for you guys what i have not
do for to get a cell phone brick ?
i have read many threads and the only way for to get it is by using application rom manager thats right or i can get a brick cell phone in odin software.
what if by a mistake set files in a wrong order in odin software
galaxy ace cf gingerreal v1.0 kph
thanks in advance
WHY would you put the wrong files in ODIN, just read the tutorial and follow it correctly?
And to kinda answer the question, what've read is that ODIN will not brick you phone, you might be able to get a bootloop though (just reflash and it should work fine).
Read the newbie guide(sticky thread) about Rom manager, it should be supported now but be cautious, better to use CWM app instead, or just reboot your phone to CWM (dont be lazy).
People brick their phone when unlocking their phone, there should be a proper solution that works without having to brick you phone.

E. Rooting for 2.3.3/2.3.4/2.3.5/2.3.6/2.3.7 (Thanks to russian forum-user with nickname may213) (if it doesn't work try D method):
1) Download attached file called upd_1.zip and copy it to your sdcard
2) Turn off your phone
3) Press POWER+HOME BUTTON
4) Select update from sdcard, select the file upd_1.zip
5) After the update completed - reboot

Allegedly??? LOLwut?
Read this:
In recent years it has become common for speakers to include allegedly in statements that are controversial or possibly even defamatory. The implication is that, by saying allegedly , the speaker is distancing himself or herself from the controversy and even protecting himself or herself from possible prosecution. However, the effect created may be deliberate. The use of allegedly can be a signal that, although the statement may seem outrageous, it is in fact true. Conversely, it is also possible to use allegedly as an expression of ironic scepticism.

Hi jithendra194,
if you already flashed the clockworkmode this could be the problem!
I know a friend who had to flash stockrecovery again, before rooting his device.
Rooting wasn't possible by using the clockworkmode, but with stock recovery rooting was successfully
So you can try flashing the stock recovery first (from here) and after it you should flash the upd_1.zip (from here)
Good luck
My luck is very bad. I failed to flash my 9100, and now I can not turn on my phone. No matter I press on which keys, the screen keeps black. And I connect it to my computer bu it can not be detected. I have tried the Counter Reset Patch to go to downloading mode, but failed. So what should I do now? If I sent it back to Samsung Service , how much will they charge me? Or If I can fix it by myself ? Who can help me? Thanks very much..
First, your luck isn't very bad, computers don't have luck, if you've bricked your device it's because you've messed something up not because you're unlucky.
Second, what exactly did you do to flash your phone? You haven't given anywhere near enough information for anyone to help you hence the lack of replies.

As far as I know I am the first. U know under almost all conditions u can fix it by downloading mode , but now I can not enter that mode. So I am unlucky.
1 tip
Try charging the battery using another mobile or external battery charger.Then connect. By my experience usb drivers of android dont easily get damaged or lost until u ruin the rom heart and soul.

What did you actually flash? Firmware, Kernel or are you trying to Root your phone?
If you can go to Download Mode then flash Stock Firmware. To be safe, charge battery to at least 70% before flashing via Odin3 v1.85. Provide more details so it would be easier for others to help....cheers

Do not say that we are not helpfull man!
Maybe no one that read your post has found a solution yet!!!
I actually stopped in this thread once ready to help this guy out but he mentions he is on froyo...
MY device came with Gingerbread, so rooting is as easy as user superoneclick (heck, there is a youtube video talking about how easy it is to root on the 5 but the 4 will be able to do the same). Sadly, advising this with this froyo uncertainty might have the potential of bricking the device, so I passed by this thread saying nothing. So I'll just do this...
Did you do a OTA update through your device's settings and check if there is a Firmware update? Once in Settings, go near the bottom and click the ABOUT button and click system updates - wifi is of course needed but wifi is everywhere even Mcdonalds for free. Update your rom accordingly to get to Gingerbread at least on the device. Then check this video -
www.youtube.com/watch?v=aA4bw8bU4T4
Once rooted, check this thread to choose your kernal and rom you want to flash -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1720457
I highly advise Ethereal rom [or Icy Fusion], and for the kernal Terrasilent [or Klin Rev 3] . Be sure to flash the Kernal FIRST not the rom so you can have recovery features in case things go wrong.
P.S. You probably got bypassed btw due to heavy focus is being brought towards other thread s like the ICS thread for 4.0 device or everyone has a thread they particular hang out in. Or it could be that these type of threads like yours pop up so often every month that the people here just glaze over the threads like these telling themselves why don't they do a search in google (like I searched "root samsung Galaxy Player 4" and my first link above is the first one that pops up in google, which is the video i referenced to root mine the first time) or check the All in one thread in the developers section of the Samsung Galaxy Player 4/5 forum (which I linked above as well). I don't mind helping though but that might be because I'm kinda still new here...

P.S. You probably got bypassed btw due to heavy focus is being brought towards other thread s like the ICS thread for 4.0 device or everyone has a thread they particular hang out in. Or it could be that these type of threads like yours pop up so often every month that the people here just glaze over the threads like these telling themselves why don't they do a search in google (like I searched "root samsung Galaxy Player 4" and my first link above is the first one that pops up in google, which is the video i referenced to root mine the first time) or check the All in one thread in the developers section of the Samsung Galaxy Player 4/5 forum (which I linked above as well). I don't mind helping though but that might be because I'm kinda still new here...

Dang people what's wrong with you!!! (kidding ). Hmm if you want GB I can offer you the 2.3.6 update in a separate tar and you can flash it from here. From this point, you can flash any custom rom based on stock. Dang froyo, for how much time you had this?
Can i sir? Include the tutorial too
Btw i cant see any system update under setting and about device..

Maybe i should give up to update my device to 2.3.5 i have no Service Pack 3 on PC and no one knows even samsungsupport at twitter how can i possibly upgrade with that pc environment. Maybe flashing thru odin but until now there is no way to use odin to upgrade

Still at 2.2.2 sucks. Odin doesnt detect my Galaxy Player 4.0

You can use Samsung's Kies to upgrade to the latest firmware.
However if you have rooted and modified some stuff, there might be a chance of getting your device bricked.
Also, make sure you have pressed Power+VolDown+Home key to get into flashing mode when you use odin.

Have you tried another usb plug? Also are you sure that your drivers are installed?
Yeah i know how to use odin and flashin like what i did to my galaxy y tried almost all custom rom. This galaxy player only gives me a hard time on flasing.
Of course i know if the device is rooter and modified or not

At odin window click troubleshoot and then driver will install. Is that correct?

Wait a minute, which odin are you using? You need odin 1.7 to flash on the YP-G1.
Yes sir i use the one in ur thread 1.7. My galaxy y detects odin but my yp is not. Maybe i should use the own yp usb cable and not the cable from sgy do u think thats the problem?

Maybe, I never saw a case where a phone is recognized and the other device isn't. The only alternative I could is is heimdall but it's longer than odin. Assuming you have tried all the usb ports on your computer. Have you tried to flash on another computer?
NOT YET SIR, maybe i should try to other PC with vista OS
heimdal is for linux os isn't?
