Cant boot CWM?? plz help
I don't want to sound to harsh, but I'll put it bluntly:
I think it was already screwed from your initial attempt in above post. Sorry to say, lack of reading, research and understanding is the cause. The attempt to flash the kernel and CWM was hopeful, but not guaranteed du to your initial mistakes. Odin was not detecting it before that.
To confirm; Your phone can still get into Download Mode, but when you connect it to PC and start Odin, Odin won't recognise it?
If the above is right; Maybe your drivers are corrupt and or KIES is still running.
1. Uninstal KIES, reboot PC and reinstall drivers. (If you don't won't KIES, and only drivers, download here).
2. Close KIES (incliuding any open processes in Task Manager)
3. Start Odin
4. Phone into DL mode & connect
5. Wait for phone drivers to load and install, up to a minute
6. Flash a stock firmware package from here: [ROM+Guide]Official i9100 Firmwares KG, KH, KI, KJ, KK1/2/5, KL1/2/3, LA2 Download. Follow Intratech's instructions exactly!
If phone won't go into Download Mode, try a USB jig. If that fails, return to Samsung
maybe you should elaborate on what you did. And yeah i had this issue when flashing to MIUI rom, and flashing siyah kernel did the job, i dono if the rom is compatible to your installed ROM.
1. As Acefreakz said; From post #5, step 6: Flash Siyah kernel 2.6.8 tar file for Odin in PDA section
2. Follow all the same steps I posted in post #5.
3. If that doesn't work, try the full firmware flash.
I GO IT WORKING im sooo happyyyy, odin just took a long time to detect it which is really strange, thanks guys

hi guys
im from malaysia. my phone comes with stock S5830DXKPD. i have flash cm7 and now trying to go back to stock rom. i also tried to restore the backup i made from cwm before. however, it stuck with 'galaxy ace' logo. one of my friend suggest me to flash the stock rom which i can get from sammobile.
so my question is, can i flash the firmware using cwm??? or is it can be flash using odin only???.
for your information, my phone cant be detected by the pc after i flash cm7. so cant use odin or if you guys have any idea for me to use odin.
really need help. thanks
clear data and cache in cwm. thn flash a stock rom using odin from samfirmware.
but then, i cant connect my phone to kies as well as odin. had try reinstall kies but same problem occur. sd can be detect and be access through my computer.
everytime i run odin, it said "please connect phone!!" what should i do so that odin can detect my phone.
p/s: my phone driver work correctly. so i dont know why kies and odin cant detect my phone
Reinstall drivers. It should work.
Did you go into download mode for flashing via Odin?

i was thinking the same thing. u cant flash to stock using kies on a custom rom, but u can flash back to stock via odin.
for odin to recognize your phone, please get your phone into download mode where by your screen will only show the word "downloading" in yellow...
Go to download mode (hold down Vol down+power+home) then connect to pc. If that won't work, put off your sim, sd, battery. Connect to pc. Now hold down vol down + power + home for a while. Now put in your battery and again hold down vol down + power + home. That worked for me when i broke my rom It don't have to work for you. You can try this only at your own risk.

if you has RESTORE the Backup in CWM, before reboot, perform full wipe/data. if still bootloop, Shutdown and perform full wipe/data again. I had experience too. Sorry for my English.
If your device not detect on your PC, reinstall SAMSUNG DRIVER and REBOOT.

I tried to flash a firmware via odin and it stucks to factoryfs.img.now i cant open my phone.When im flashing every firmware va odin it stucks at factoryfs.img.i tried to wipe everything from the stock recovery and retry but i had no success.when im flashing kernels i have no error.so i was wondering if i could flash cf-root and then when i will be into recovery push files via adb to internal sdcard.is this possible?if yes tell me how.If not tell me other ways to unbrick my device
Which firmware did you try? Try to flash a stock firmware. Go here and pick up the latest ROM and follow the instructions it is very well explained

i flashed a stock firmware.i tried this and i had no result.if you can answer this i told about cwm and adb i would be very happy
try another cable.
I had similar problem because of a poor cable ordered from e-bay.
even if you are using the stock cable, try another one as it might be damaged.
gokhan thanks for your help but it didn't work.if i format the /system partition will i be able to get into download mode?
I don't see how you could get Odin to recognise your phone in order to format the system partition if you weren't able to get into download mode.
So I guess I'll play Captain Obvious...Can you get into download mode ?
If not, does Odin recognise the phone when you hook the phone up to a PC via a USB cable ? (a long shot I know but I'm trying to think of anything that might work here).

You really need to start giving more information.
Excactly what rom did you tried to flash? And yes, you can just flash CF-Root and start flashing from recovery. If it is possible to push the files true adb, I don't know. But you will have adb for sure in recovery.
And why are you flashing? It looks like you have really no idea what you are doing.
the problem is solved.i flashed a cwm 9 rom via odin and now im ok.now im flashing chechrom.i had checkrom and i undervolted too much.the phone closed but accidenatly i had ticked the set on bot button.my external sd is broken and i didnt have a checkrom backp into my internal sdcard.so i decided to flash an official firmware and then flash again checkrom.this is the story but now my problem is solved so you can lock the thread.thank you all
Helllo pple...
I have an SGH-I777 bought from the USA... now i am using the phone in India and from the past 6 months i have had absolutely no problems with it... i had switched my phone off to charge it... and after abt an hour... switched it on... but it has been flashing "Samsung galaxy s2" and going blank and re showing tht to me... i googled it and... tried soft reset... hard reset... but nothing seemed to work.... then... i tried to go in the recovery mode and did factory reset.... and since tht time... it is not allowing me to go in the recovery mode... everytime i have been trying to go... it is showing me the same message.... my phone shows me tht it is charging... but it doesnt switch on... and the place i live... there the pple in the Samsung gallery told.. there is no way they can fix it... is there any way i can? is there any possible way i can do it? i would be very happy if it does... please help...
Try the instructions in this post.
hey... thanks for telling but... i am really finding it a little tough to follow the instructions... i connected my phone to my laptop downloaded the files... but hw do i get started with it... can you please help me out.. i tried opening odin... it doesnt open... how do i open it? and how do i connect my phone with the software?
Assuming your laptop runs Windows...
Refer back to this post again, and...
For 1. follow the instructions in step 2a) of this guide, except use this file: I777UCKH7-CL503881 FULL Odin3 One-click Downloader (See Download Repository, link in sig) which contains the bootloaders and param.lfs.
For 2. and 3. since the phone will be in a boot loop, you need to install the kernel with Odin3 v1.85. Download the kernel from this Media Fire link. Then follow the steps in this post, except use the kernel you just downloaded instead of the stock kernel.
Follow 4. and 5. then for 6. download the tar version of Siyah kernel, and use the same proceedure as immediately above to flash it.
I got it Miten.....
May be i can do it... Hope for the best.......
i did the odin part... and after it shows me pass... i still cannot enter the recovery mode... it is showing me this...
"E:failed to mount /cache (unknown error: 0)
E: can't mount /cache/recovery/command"
what do i do now?? :crying:
"i did the odin part... "
What have you flashed with Odin. If you flashed the I777UCKH7-CL503881-Full package, then you are where you are expected to be. If this is this all you have flashed to this point, then you should still have a boot loop or error messages.
Next flash the SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3 kernel tar using Odin. Following this flash, you should be able to enter recovery and perform a wipe data/factory reset.
The thrid step is to flash the Siyah kernel using Odin. Use the link in 6. of that guide and download the tar version.
i could enter the recovery mode... i did factory reset... but it is still rebooting and showing me
"Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100" with an exclamation mark.. what do i do

After it shows the GT-I9100 boot screen and yellow triangle with exclamation mark, does it boot on in to the operating system?
The GT-I9100 boot screen and yellow triangle with exclamation mark is present because you flashed a custom kernel with Odin. This can be cleared later, but first you need to be able to boot the phone all the way up.

no... it is not rebooting... sigh
It's possible the phone has some type of hardware failure, I suppose.
Can you still get into download mode?
Can you tell me what you have flashed successfully through Odin and in what order you flashed them, if more than one thing?

There was never anything said about using a pit.
That pit is for the GT-I9100, not the I777.
I seriously doubt that the partition sizes for the I9100 are the same as the I777.
I hope you havn't completely screwed up your phone.
There is a pit for the I777 in the Download Repository, see the link in my signature.

I think what creepy is saying here is:
FOLLOW THE DAMN INSTRUCTIONS LAID OUT TO YOU EXACTLY AS THEY WERE WRITTEN!
I read the instructions and don't see how you could have decided to do anything with pit files like you have. Do you go to the doctor and when he tells you to take 2 hydrocodones per day do you then take 3 plus a couple Aleve chased vodka? NO! You take the medicine as prescribed and let it ride.
Come back after following the instructions EXACTLY as written and maybe you might receive more support if your problem is not solved.
Good luck.

hello,
my phone is acting wierd
it boots till that yellow caution incon then again restarts
i was on rootbox and installed cm7 and not booting to recovary but can boot into download mode
after rebooting this happed
some one please help me
thank you
Are you still on CM7?
Does it still go into recovery? Have you tried clearing data/cache?
How much battery was it on when this happened? If low leave it charging for a bit and then try it on whilst charging.
Try a stock samsung firmware if anything else fails to let it boot.
Hi
what i did is
used rom cleaning script and installed CM7 and gave reboot
phone turns on till that yellow triangle (main screen where samsung S2 comes) and restarts
cant go to recovary mode
from where can i download odin flashables?
should i try flashing with odin is it safe?
please im not in position to buy a phone
Have you tried to go to the stock rom first?
1. Download the stock rom of your phone. 4.0.3
2. Download Odin
3. press the sleep buttom, home buttom and the volume up.
4. wipe the cache and do a factory reset after that turn off your phone. (alternative)
5. Press sleep buttom, home buttom and volume down then you'll get to download mode.
6. put in the usb cabel on your phone and the pc.
7. Then it will connect to the pc and odin.
8. extract the stock rom and have it on your desktop.
9. now on odin press on PDA and select the file.
10.now press start.
Everything should go smooth so after that you can install cf root and if you did a backup you can restore it, unless you had it on the internal storage.
(dont forget to do a nandroid or cwm backup before installing rom into your external storage!
i dont know from where i can get odin flashables
i called my phone and got build info
Android 4.0.3
IML7K.XWLP7
DDLPA
My phone : I9100
Country : India
Thank you
If you skip the recovery part you should be able to restore internal backup
Did you wipe data when you flashed cm7?
Its necessary.

Try to flash an ROM from India, or if you flash a ROM from a different country or region and you have problems with your network you can try and flash a modem which works specific in India
if you want the stock rom just go to samfirmware.com and download there unfortunately i cant send the link because i need to post 10 posts

Hi XDA,
I got a S5830i from my friend to do a system backup because the custom ROM doesn't boot. I read that I have to do it with Odin v3. But there is the problem. I installed every driver, even KIES (It doesn't run) and the Odin doesn't recognise it. Only the Odin v4 can see it. So I tried with it and made 4 file from a tar.md5 file, it ended successfully but it doeasn't boot. I always get a bootloop with 2 different stock ROM. Unfortunately I can't try it with another computer because I only have a laptop which is run W8 and if I know it right, Odin need W7.
So my question is that why don't the Odin v3 recognise this phone?

Did you try going to recovery and wiping data and cache after flashing? I always have to do that after flashing with Odin, although I use Odin v1.85 or v3.07 for flashing. If you want me to attach them, ask me.
Press Thanks button if helped.

Somehow I solved it but I don't know how. I plugged the phone and ta-dam the Odin recognised it. I didn't do anything and now it's working. Finally I managed to get beck to the stock ROM so now everything is OK.
Thanks for the answer and maybe if you know why does it worked suddenly please write it down because I' m dying of curiosity. :silly:
