Hey guys,
Long time reader, first time poster. I managed to brick my SGSII, so the little phone/computer icon came up. I put the phone into download mode but Odin doesn't recognise it is there, and that super one click unbrick programme didnt work either. Any ideas?
Much appreciated.

How did you solve it?

Probably used the forum Stickies, "Search" function, or "Google".
Should have used it first before panicking and posting another "help. I'm bricked!!" thread.
At least he's sorted, but these type of posts where Users have asked for help, eventually found the answer somewhere else, but not bothered to post their actual fix

Hi all,
Was wondering if anybody could help me please.
I've just installed VinsosWeatherIcons which i got from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7129605&postcount=6300.
Managed to install it ok and then it asked to restart device. Restarted device but now Sense doesn't load up and causes the phone to hang alot and not return to home page.
Have managed to uninstall the cab but am still having the same problems.
I've tried everything I can think of but still Sense won't load and the last thing i want to do is hard reset home.
Anybody got any ideas please.
Many thanks.
remove them ?? lol
you can do it the normal way through remove programs or do it through active sync,
p.s. the title of you're thread isn't going to attract much attention most folk on here are getting bored of help thread titles, no offence intended. and just so u no you can click the post number and it will open in a separate tab or window and you can quote from there just makes it easier matey,
Hi Demon_man,
Thanks for the reply and advice.
Managed to uninstall the cab but sense still won't load and am having the same problems.
just been reading another sense wont start thread, somebody said try booting your phone without you're mem card in mate, if sense starts then you just got to figure out what's on the card
Thanks Demon_man,
Have just read the thread myself and have tried everything that has been suggested on there but have had no luck.
Looks like a hard reset may be required
damn unlucky mate, sorry couldn't be of more help
No probs mate.
Thanks for replying and your advice.
try flashing a new ROM. it works for me. my sense didnt start on 2 occassions. flashing the ROM again worked for me.
Hello there. I'm new on this forum and I'm sorry if i didn't post in the right subforum.
3 days ago I tried to get the unlock code for my phone because it was blocked on Orange (SIM card). Everything went fine and I managed to reach the point where I found out which is the code to unlock it. After this. I wanted to reboot my phone and when i tried to turn it on again it didn't work. I asked a buddy and he told me it may be a "phone bricked" problem. I searched on internet and tried to do it in any way possible to solve the problem. I tried the One click method, the android upgrade method... anything... I can enter in downloading mode and recovery mode and when I try to flash it it says "pass" on odin and still no response.
I (as an idiot) didn't expect any problem when I followed the tutorial to get the SIM code and the guy who made the tutorial didn't mention anything about a possible brick.
I wanted to ask if you guys can let me know anything about any other possible method before I get it to the service.
Thank you!!!
Indeed, your phone might already brick, to resolve your current problem, just visit this, One-Click unbrick
The above link is actually can be found here in XDA Forums, just do a deep search next time buddy. Read every steps carefully which mentioned there. Hope it helps.

HI,
I apologise if this is the wrong forum, but I cannot find anything specific to my device, and all threads I found so far that deal with flashing might as well be in Greek. Please move it to wherever is appropriate if this is the wrong place.
The problem;
My Onda v140 (I think it's an Elite but I got it second hand and I don't know for certain) bricked over night. I turned it on and it is stuck on the android animation. Tried a couple of times, no joy.
Its OS is (or WAS) Android 4.01.
I found firmware for the v140 elite and would like to try flashing the thing to fix it, but I have absolutely no idea where to start. I don't know any of the jargon beyond the word flashing, and have had little luck on the internet except for a video which might have been helpful except that it is in German and I don't speak German.
Can anyone point me to some sort of beginners guide to this please?
Hope this helps : -

link removed from your quote as the forum wouldn't let me post with it there
Thanks, but that guide doesn't work. I spent half an hour holding the middle button and pushing the power button without it doing a dicky bird. I also tried running livesuite as administrator in case that would help.
Nothing.
Hi there, I just tried to flash Jelly Bean on to my S2 using Odin. For whatever reason Odin failed and now I'm left with a screen saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I can still access download mode but not recovery mode. Neither my laptop nor my desktop will recognise my S2 so I'm unable to try again using Odin.
Any suggestions? I hope it's not permanently ruined because I only got it on Wednesday
Best bet stop what your doing and start to read the many threads about what's happened to your phone. You can fix this but you need to stop and read.

Right, thank you. I've spent the morning trying to find relevant threads and build up some kind of picture but there is so much information, most of which only semi covers my particular situation, that I thought it would be easier just to ask for some help. Is there some sort of guide for this kind of thing or should I just continue my search through the depths of the forums?
Hum....there's like 2 zillion threads about this, use the search button by entering only "kies".
Sent from the little guy
I've actually just got it sorted now. Lots and lots of trying and re-trying Odin, re-installing drivers and rebooting. Not sure what finally got it to work but Jelly Bean is running beautifully.
Sorry about the addition of yet another post on this topic. It's difficult not to try to get direct help when you think you've just ruined your brand new and rather expensive device.
Well done mate. Better to read and learn than to ask and no nothing.

Oh my, you must truly be new here.
-Improper title
-Asking something EXTREMELY basic which has been covered at least a billion times in gazillions of guides all around XDA and other sites.
Do a little search, don't be a lazy bedbug and you will get your answer.
im sorry if i upset u.
its not a matter of me being lazy or whatever.
i tryed search for answers, but for each answer i find in there are several different solutions, some mention hidden smth others that i wil brick it and so on, so in my opinion it was a plain simple question, mayby its annoying, that ppl with no experience what so ever in this, and taking ppl time in here, but thought that it also was a board for helping.

Put ur phone to download mode (switch ot off then press lock+home+volume down buttons simultanusly, then click volume up when it asks to continue)
Connect it to pc . Click start and thats it.....
Hope it helps...
