Downloaded the firmware and the kernel
format data/factory reset

went to the download mode
closed kies ( using task manager)
opened odin
didn't check re-partition
started and this is what i got:
<ID:0/006> Added!!
<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..

<ID:0/006> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/006> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/006> boot.bin
For 30 min or more till now
Anybody know a solution?
Thanks in advance
If you did NOT check repartition and did NOT select a .pit file then you are safe. Then you can just try again. Or try again with a different rom and/or a different USB cable.
Sounds like the tar file you downloaded might be corrupt. Try downloading it again, and once you've done so/unpacked the tar, use 7Zip to test the integrity of the archive. If it comes up all files OK/no errors then that isn't your problem.
What variant of SGS2 do you have & what country/carrier ?

-Went In The Recovery Mode: Formatted Cache 1st Thn Formatted Data/factory Reset
Switched It Off After Formatting.
-Opened It In Odin Mode
CHANGED THE USB PORT ( I Think It Was A Crtitical Step, Thanks To Lennyz1988)
- Opened Odin And Tried Again, Boot.bin took 0.0001 Sec XD

I just got my phone yesterday and rooted it. Installed CWM and OCLF. Everything went fine.
Then today I:
-Disabled the lagfix, flashed the Fascinate lockscreen through CWM.
-Enabled the lagfix.
-Saw that the lockscreen took away my battery mod
-Disabling OCLF takes forever so I ask the forum if its okay to flash stuff other than roms without disabling OCLF
-Was told the lagfix is only to be disabled if flashing full ROMs
-Tried flashing battery mod in CWM without disabling lagfix first
-Phone ended up in endless boot up so I go into recovery mode and deleted user data
-Phone still endless boots so I look up ways to unbrick/flash stock JFD
-Downloaded Odin and put phone into download mode
-Phone is stuck at "Downloading... Do not turn off target!!!" screen, and does not mount to computer through USB
Aaaaand this is how I'm sitting as of now. What do I do? Did I really just break my one day old phone?
Make sure that you install the drivers or odin won't do you any good. Once you have the proper drivers installed, odin will display a com# in red. From there just go to the stickies about flashing Eugene's froyo that doesn't brick. Then back to jfd.
Your phone is fine... or it will be.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Installed driver for the phone, my computer makes the connection sound when I plug in the USB. But it is still not showing as a drive.
And I've been searching for a while now, I seem to be unable to find that thread with Eugenes froyo that doesnt brick.
Get your phone into download mode. Make sure that the USB cable is not plugged in.
Open Odin.. preset everything (PDA,etc) in its respective boxes
Plug your phone in.. Odin should detect a COM#
Press start
And it should work.
Drivers are located: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728929 (these work.. try re-installing if above doesn't work)

Try uninstalling the drivers you installed and install the ones I linked above with respect to 32-bit or 64-bit (depending on your OS). I had this problem before, just pull the battery and get it back into download mode and do it again after installing the drivers and restarting. Remember to pre-load all the files before plugging in the usb

Hi Everyone,
I flashed JB leaked firmware through ODIN and it failed, I had selected PDA, CSC, phone accordingly as i was doing it second time on my frnd's phone, but it failed saying write error.
Now I can't go into download mode but I can see a weird sign: phone-pc sync logo.
Odin is recognizing my phone and I tried to flash again but same thing happened.
Please help what should I do now, it's urgent guys please help me out.

Download mode or recovory works ?. Then flash a stock ics Rom and try again.
Hope it works..

Unplug your phone from usb.
Close odin and open it again.
just hold down power button while press volume down and home button. it will reboot into download mode
plug in
set pda and etc accordingly. flash.
Whenever you fail, you must close odin and unplug to try again to be sure.
Also try changing usb port if one side fails. Make sure your pc recognize and install driver before you plug in

Have you tried a usb jig to get you into download mode? If you don't have one look at the thread about jig's on your area.

Indeed you can't access download mode now. But JIG will solve your problems. I had this problem myself 1 year ago and made a JIG.When you connect it, the phone will enter in Download mode. Search here for a tutorial on home-made jig, it takes you less than 10 minutes to make.
Good luck!

So you cannot get into download mode ?
A JIG puts the phone into factory mode which is the same as odin and download mode.
I was forced to make a JIG several months ago.
Good luck.

Try factory reset to restore the original state of this official Rom. then try with odin again.
If you read cf root thread properly you well see that if it fails you need to boot into recovery too trigger the installation

What should i do now ?!
Im sorry to say this but i think you have got the SDS/eMMC failure and the internal memory is dead. Many users reported freezing and stuttering before their s3 died completely... Take it to service center and they should repair it for warranty. Just want to tell you that its not your fault, its samsung's bug.

Long story short, i wanted to install a new rom that required twrp to work correctly. i read that i could flash back and forth from twrp to cwm and vice verse just by using their respective file from each other. i downloaded the twrp zip and flashed it from cwm recovery, rebooted and phone booted. i then for some dumb reason used ClockWorkMod app and chose to reboot into recovery even though i have never had any lock using the app. ( always do my flashes manually) Now i am stuck in a loop. phone turns on, vibrates, shows samsung logo then reboots. doesn't matter how i try to turn on. ( odin download, recovery, or regular boot)
Any suggestions??

Repeat the process again.....
If it fails 3 consecutive times, I suggest moving to Kies for an emergency restore of the device.....g
Before you go any further, I would suggest as Bubba said, to check the power button. Sounds like it's stuck.
Edit: I also see that the latest twrp has been causing issues as well. Either way. Good luck!
I read about the latest twrp issues and im thinking that is whats causing the problems, but i have read that others have been able to fix by just flashing or odin downloading and starting over again.
I don't think the power button is stuck. When i push it, it feels normal, bounces back and everything. If it was stuck would it still mechanically operate normally? Plus i am able to get into odin download mode. Is my thinking wrong here.
I also tried the stock recovery and stock rom from Da_G and both just sat there forever and then failed but it restarted the phone so it must be communicating right?
I really miss my phone, should i be asking somewhere else?
Well...it's most likely not the power button unless that was fixed and you have a new problem. When the power button is stuck, the phone will continue to vibrate and attempt to boot.

i can't use kies cause i can't boot the phone right? or am i miss understanding how kies works.
You can use Kies in download mode and do a firmware upgrade. It sounds like you wiped your OS. You should be able to use the stock Odin tar to recover. I would grab a fresh download and try again. If all else fails, use Kies in download mode and do an emergency firmware flash(or whatever it's called)
kies won't connect to my phone in download mode either. i tried re installing drivers, i went through the kies connection error troubleshooting stuff. i hate to think it is something to do with my pc because i know i have connect to it before when i first got the phone and rooted it. maybe I'll try using the laptop tomorrow. any other ideas please keep them coming. I'll make a nice donation to the one who comes up with something that works.
It won't connect while in download mode like it does when booted normally. It will just continue trying to connect from what I remember. Make sure you grab the phone info behind the battery. I think it needs the model and S/N. Then do an emergency recovery. Been a while but I think it needs to be all caps as well when you enter the info.

Had something similar happen about a week ago or so. Only difference is mine completed the process after reconnecting to odin and re-did the CWM, was all good afterwards. I know it's probably been mentioned but just trying to help. If you can get into factory recovery or download mode, do it, connect to Odin, follow the steps exactly as when you first rooted your phone, no need to install the super user if it's something you already installed previously, do it up until it says passed and unplug from the computer, your device should re-boot, fingers crossed. You more than likely already know what to have checked in odin and what not to have checked. Delete/Un-Install the TWRP newest update and go with I think it is 2.3. something. It helped me, maybe you, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you as well.
Thanks Everyone!
Thanks for all your help and suggestions. I have been trying kies for the last couple days to no avail. (which i wouldn't have even got started if it wasn't for Froid's all caps hint, small donation sent your way for that). But in the end it was my PC, i hooked up to the laptop and bam, first try. Grrr damn windows drivers, i keep threatening to kick windows to the curb, but then again i have paid a dime for any version since 3.1. LOL
Thanks again!
Thank you for the donation. I'm glad you got it all worked out. We're all happy to help(for free) ...Thanks again man...much appreciated.

HI
I got here a bricked i9300.
It freezes on Samsung logo.
I cant open recovery, but it does enter download mode.
First thing I tried was flashing stock firmware via Odin: I got "There is no PIT partition"
So I closed Odin and reopened it and tried flashing the PIT file.
It froze on SetupConnection.
I shut off the phone and entered download mode again and tried to flash the PIT.
Now it froze on Get PIT for mapping..
I closed Odin and reopened it... Froze on SetupConection.
Shut of the phone... Download mode... Odin...
I set the PIT and marked Nand Erase All
<ID:0/007> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/007> Initialzation..
<ID:0/007> Erase...
<ID:0/007>
<ID:0/007> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Every time I try to do something via Odin the phone seems to freeze and wont pass trough SetupConnection anymore.
If I restart it to download mode, it will try to do something but I get those errors.
If I shut it down and put it to charge, it will take longer than usual to show the static battery icon (the one with a circle), and wont pass trough it. It will freeze there.
I also tried the Kies tool where you put Model and S/N, it finds the phone, I accept the terms and then get a message that "this version cannot be updated".
WHat the hell can I do? Is this motherboard gone for good?
Very much the same here! I hope there is a solution for this problame
Did you try ticking repartition in Odin and flash firmware with pit. Hope that'll do.

Yes it will start by trying to repartition and freeze at "Get pit for mapping.."

Try using Samsung Kies 3. Go to Tools, then Firmware Upgrade and Initialisation.
This happened to me and I was able to unbrick my phone.
