You need to download files to use for your specific phone and try again. You said you have a GT-I9100G, right? Well, where did you get the files you used to root?
You also said in the title of this post that you installed XXKI3. Well, installing XXKI3 and rooting are not the same thing. Which did you do? Root using an insecure kernel? Or install an XXKI3 firmware?
I'm going to go ahead and guess that you tried to flash a firmware intended for the regular GT-I9100, and not the GT-I9100G. These two phones have different hardware, so firmwares are NOT compatible.
Amirite?
first I tried to root it using insecure kernel...when it got stuck with galaxy s 2 logo screen with yellow triangle.... I searched all over the net for a solution and one of the solutions was is to flash xxki3 ....and I did that.... but it always fail.... I also tried to flash litening rom... but at the end...it fails at MODEM stage i believe....
Now all i want is to get my phone working....I dont wanna root it anymore....
please guys please help me
Stop flashing it.
You are doing more damage.
You have the 9100G, but you're flashing 9100 stuff
I am not flashing it anymore.... but I need a solution.... I want to know how can I get it back up and running
please help me

When you get the error, does it say failed red color? Of course not.
Tell us excactly the error you are getting! If you want our help give us all the information that you have.

Hi There,
I have a friends Galaxy Ace that had Android 2.3.5 on it.
Rooted the phone OK and then wanted to upgrade to a rom that also had 2.3.7 on it.
Downloaded the free version of Clockwork Mod and installed.
When holding down the power and home buttons, on boot, it never loads to the CW screen but the standard android download screen.
So when I used that to install the rom I downloaded and GApps, it rebooted and now I am stuck at a screen that simply says ANDROID.
So it's stuck and I can do nothing. I have heard about Odin and it's ability to get the phone back to a stock FW like 2.3.5 or 2.3.6 but I can not find anywhere to download the firmware files and a half decent guide to Odin.
Is there anyone that could help me get what I am after and help me use ODIN to get the phone working again. Wouldn't be too bothered if it was mine but being a friends phone I am starting to panic a little
Thanks in advance to anyone wiling to help

Before everything there is no paid clockworkmode recovery

third if so ... go here and choose the firware that suits u best samfirmware.com
4th here is a full tutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMVkduK606A
ATTENTION the tutorial uses a GT-5830M For Your Case Is a GT-S5830 ! Also Another Note Phone Has To Be In Download Mode So Odin Recognize it (Volume Up + Center Button + Power Button )

If I press it for a long time it the screen goes of for about a second then the same screen appears. I tried taking the a battery out put it back in switched on and the same screen appears. When I connect the phone to my laptop my laptop does not recognise the phone.
Please help

Did you flash a rom from this forum? If so, your bricked.. This is the US version on Sprint (SPH-L710) Yours is the international version which can be found on this section here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1563.
We get a few I9300 people in here and seems to be more often then not. Anything in here that is flashed my render your phone nothing more then a paperweight. Check the forums before flashing anything. (incase you did) Thank you and have a nice day.
Moved to I9300
Now that you have already flashed the wrong firmware.. Try the following..
If you have CWM... Flash any intended for your device.. Wipe data factory reset.. Try booting
If that is not working then..
Download the stock firmware.. Flash it using Odin.. Boot into recovery and do a factory reset... Then see if your device boots..

Stock ROM location?

Where can i find the stock rom for international GS-III? Honestly I have no idea where to find it. People say "download stock firmware" but they never put where it can be located. We need a firmware bible of some sort. Thanks if someone can help me out!

So, I was trying to root my:
Samsung Galaxy S2
i9100g
(Not sure what Rom/ICS/Firmware it had before I tried rooting)
I tried flashing with Siyah Kernel to Root like I had previously done with another i9100, but in turn the S2 now sits at the black boot screen displaying "Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-i9100G" and will not go further.
I've read about 50 or so threads relating to the boot screen problem.
Yes, the device may reach Download mode, but not Recovery mode.
Any help would be extremely helpful.
Thank you.

Hey dude, in the first place u have flashed a wrong kernel on ur I9100G, since siyah doesnt support that model due to difference in hardware alltogether compared to I9100 international and its variants M/P/T.
Ur lucky since ur phone is able to go to Dwnld mode.
Just dwnld a stock firmware meant for I9100G ( u can dwnld the same from www.sammobile.com) and flash the same from Pc Odin to boot ur phone Normally and then try the link below to have a proper root of ur phone

Ps- in the future be carefull while flashing things on ur phone, read before proceeding else u will have an expensive piece of Paper weight with u

Hi all.
I have already posted my problem in this thread which I have read to the end ( [GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked I9100G )
but was not able to get any solution so I'm starting a new thread hopefully someone might be able to help me and sorry if I was not suppose to start a new thread.
My problem is as follows and hope that someone can help.
I have downloaded odin mobile and installed it on my S2 I9100 G which previously had CM 10 installed on it and I wanted to flash the official firmware using Odin mobile. I did run it and then the phone prompted me for M5 or Md5 that was detected and should click yes to verify before flashing. I clicked yes then it started verifying and when it was done it rebooted and then was stuck on the (Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-19100G black screen) and did not want to move. I waited for an hour and a half and nothing happened. When I removed the battery (I could not reset or do anything else) and put it back, the phone turned on by itself and stayed still on the starting screen (Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-19100G black screen)
Now I'm not being able to put it in recovery nor download mode.
Can any one help and anyone knows if the jtag dongle can actually force it to go to download mode even at this stage
Thanks in advance for any suggestion
Ok thank you guys. I think I was able to fix it and revive my phone.
go to service centre they solve your problem

Make sure you got the right M.O kernel (I9100G).

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:
