hey guys, before you say this is a repost ive had a look and was unable to find someone who done the same thing as me...
i have a brand new galaxy s2,
i tried to root it, but some how i stuffed it up and the phone got stuck on the boot screen after the root, i tried to reinstall the kernel but without being able to get into the phone i didnt know which kernel i needed, i DONT have clockworkmod installed so i couldnt boot via that either, so i tried downloading the stock kernel for Telstra my phone provider, i tried installing that, but now instead of being stuck on the screen with the boot logo and a yellow triangle, im stuck on the screen that has a little image of a phone and a computer and an orange triangle between then with a ! in it. any assistance in this would be greatly appreciated

Hello
I recently tried to install Cryogenmod 10 using Clockwork Mod Recovery, my friend recommended doing it this way. My phone now just boots to the Samsung logo screen and sits with that yellow "!" icon.
I've changed my mind about installing a custom rom and just want to go back to my factory OS. Can you guy's please help me do this?
Thank you so much.
EDIT: Hold the phone...I think I managed to install the new rom.
EDIT: Nope, didn't work. I know you get threads like this all the time and I'm sorry for being just another noob..but I would really appreciate your help.
EDIT: As usual, the noob panicked. I've got it to work.
I was trying to install a theme with ROM Toolbox when the phone froze on me. I tried to reboot it but it wouldn't go past Galaxy S III logo, or I just don't see it as it seems like the phone stays on, but the screen doesn't come on. I was able to boot into ClockworkMod Recovery screen and did a factory reset hoping that would help, but it didn't.
Tried searching the forum looking for an answer, but sadly all I found were few on other devices. Please help a n00b!
Please disregard. seems like I posted in a wrong forum I have L710. Will re-post proper sub-forum. Sorry for the bother.
I tried to install the cwm via ROM MANAGER and when its done, my phone resetted and from that moment it has been stucking at the Samsung logo for hours. ive tried removing and inserting the battery but it doesnt work; booting into recovery doesnt either: the samsung logo keeps flashing if i do that. My phone is 4.2.2 and rooted, i definately didnt mess anything, just let the ROM MANAGER automatically do its job and now it resulted in this. Looking forward to your replies guy, im desperate now.
Updated: my phone is in download mode now and idk how this works. It doesnt tell me what is it downloading or the process...
Go read the stickies in general on how to return fully to stock, read and understand before you flash.
My Galaxy S2 suddenlz got stuck on the boot screen that gives the name and model number and since then has been on the same screen. I have never rooted the phone so thats not the problem. I can however enter download mode so I was wondering if there was a way that i could maybe flash a rom onto it, I've never done this before and could not get it to work by following the tutorial on cyanogenwiki.
any help would be much appreciated to revive my gs2
Thread stickied near the top of Q&A showing you how to flash stock rom with Odin (get one for your country/carrier from Samfirmware).
Hi guys, I`m new to this forum and I wouldn`t be posting this topic if I found a solution on other forums. If anyone had a problem like mine, or saw a thread before, I would appreciate if you pasted a link to the solution, or gave some kind of advice.
First of all, I`m new to rooting, custom roms, etc., so I guess that whatever I did, it was my fault. I got this Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100) as a gift, and since i already had a phone, I wanted to take a risk and take a shot at installing a lollipop rom. I watched a few tutorials, it seemed simple enough, so i thought why the hell not, but in the process something went wrong...
Sooo... here is what I`ve done:
1.) Rooted my phone with VROOT
2.) Flashed custom recovery with ODIN. I`m not sure which version of CWM it was, 6.0.4.5 I think (the file is named CWM KitKar compatible-I9100). When I flashed CWM, my phone didn`t boot up. All I got was a Samsung Galaxy logo and a yellow triangle for a few seconds before my screen went black again, but I could still access both recovery mode and download mode using the combination of keys.
3.) And then I did what I think screwed up my phone. I thought maybe flashing a lollipop rom through recovery would solve the issue (maybe the recovery is incopatible with my older stock rom and it`s the reason why my phone isn`t booting). So i flashed CM12 from galaxys2root.com. It`s called CM12.1S ROM for Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 (Andorid 5.1)
Not only it didn`t solve my problem, I still can`t get my phone to boot (now I get a samsung logo and a yellow triangle, but screen doesn`t go black after a few seconds, I left it in this state till the battery ran out and still nothing). And on the top of all things, I can`t get my phone to recovery mode anymore, all I get is the yellow triangle. I can still get it into download mode, but it doesn`t connect with my PC anymore. It charges, but I can`t connect it with ODIN anymore. And the weirdest thing is, when I connect it to PC, my other USB port goes crazy and disconnect my USB Wi-Fi adapter
What went wrong? Any advice is highly anticipated. :good:
