Please help!!!! All i see is a cellphone and a computer with a hazard symbol in between please please help i dont know what to do help please 4.0 us version
Sorry to hear that it happened to you, but definitely it doesn't look like a hard brick, so all you need is to enter the download mode (Vol Down + Pwr) and download a good stock rom using Odin. The thing is, I'm not sure what's a good recovery rom for SGP 4.0 US. What I tried ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1531850 , whose US version download link is not available anymore because the OP closed the link to the bricking US rom) bricked my SGP 4.0 US, so be very careful. I hope someone more experienced could provide us with some good information on a good recovery rom for SGP 4.0 US. Also, please do note that I'm a noob and take my words accordingly. I can't be held liable for anything. Thanks.

That symbol IS download mode. Think of it as a "This is a last chance to unscrewyourself" type thing.

What did you actually do to get your phone into its current state?
On top of that,
What model is the phone? (i9100, i9100G, i9100T, etc)
model is i9100 now its in the state total off no screen on nor working recovery or download mode i put off battery two hours
Your inability to answer simple questions leads me to suggest that you should contact Samsung. We cannot help you.

Good luck getting any more help.
You can try to get into Download mode using USB Dongle Jig.
If not, JTAG is the only way to unbrick. Unbrivk with JTAG costs about 50$ in my country. It will totaly reflashe the rom (bootloader, kernel, etc.).

Please Help. I flashed this Ice cream sandwich file "I9100XXLPB_I9100OXXLP5_OXX" on my galaxy s2 i777 and now i cant go back to stock. I get a frozen boot screen with the gt-i9100 logo. The only time I can get the phone to turn on is when I reflash the i9100 ics with odin. I dont want that because the back and search buttons dont work and internet data is not working. I just want to go back to the icsrewd that I had or foxhound. Please help. Thank you.
P.s. I also tried this, but didnt work "[Heimdall][Odin][Stock][Root]UCKH7/KK6 Return/Unbrick to Stock (or Root)"
Why not flash back to what was working, as you stated you can, and then from there, clear/wipe etc., and flash what you do want?

It wont let me flash anything that has to do with i777, not even the rom i had before.
If you can get into download mode you can flash back to stock. Just do everything you did when you flash the 1900 but use the stock one found in the development board and you should be fine

Tried to return to stock. It finishes download and reboots phone, but then the screen freezes at the galaxy s2 logo. I have to re-enter download mode to get off that screen. The phone never boots up after that. I need a link to a .tar file for a rom so I can flash through odin.

Flash back to stock first. You need to flash everything for the I777 that is in the i9100 package that caused the problem. Use an archive program to open the i9100 tar and look at the contents. It probably includes boot.bin, sbl.bin, and param.lfs. None of the stock I777 packages that you tried to flash have those. In that case, flash the I777UCKH7-CL503881 Stock Binaries from the Download Repository, which contains those files.
What Creepy said is accurate. The reason yer messed up is you flashed i9100 bootloaders most likely.

U need to flash stock firmware with odin to restore functionality to the phone. Search for "stock firmware uckh7 i777 xda" with Google or search for creepyncrawly's profile here on xda, in his signature he has links to return to stock. Good luck.

Ok this is not being mean or rude, but if you dont know the meaning of these basic terms then you need to stop what your doing and spend some time doing your homework. Will you be with out a phone for a few hours? Yes but this is the price you pay for doing something before you understand what your doing. So please before you do something that cant be fixed. Do the research.

And remember that the many helpful people in here are unpaid volunteers and this is not the Samsung Help Desk. No one is here to save you from your stupidity or laziness.
Well, I upgraded my android device from CM-9.1.0 to CM-10.1-20130102-NIGHTLY just to try it, and i find a lot of bugs on it, so I downgraded the phone, and when it almost finished, the phone just won't started, so I tried to load CWM Recovery with help of this post (I should have read the comments...): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1814801 because I just could enter download mode.
So, my phone got bricked, well at least I think that, because it won't turn on, and my PC won't recognize my phone (nor in the Device Manager). I have tried removing the battery and the SIM card, connect it to a PC hold Volume Up + Down and insert the battery, and it neither works :c.
It's a Hard Brick or a soft one? do you think that i should try this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=lojU5bvGz3c Please help! :c
Well, the problem might be that you flashed a ROM for an i9100 and this is the forum for the i777. Either you have the wrong phone or the wrong ROM. If you do indeed have an i9100 I hope your underwear are flame retardant because it is going to get warm up in here.

What's 2 bucks compared to a JTAG service. I would try it first
first of all sorry if this is a repeated thread, very new to this site and no offense intended. please point me in the right direction if this is the case.
phone is very unresponsive with either a battery symbol (with circle inside - frozen) or galaxy s2 load up screen with triangle. I have previously rooted the phone with a litening rom through odin v 1.85. i was running a version of ICS on it and this morning i tried to upgrade to jellybean as a forum on this site had said it was possible. firstly in clockwork mod (holding power, vol up and home button) somewhere through the process of putting the file on the phone (instructions said to carry out the process through the clockwork mod) i have made a grave error. If I was able to get the phone to be recognised by the laptop I would be able to flash another stock kernel through odin to at least get me back functional and worry about tweaking later. Currently the phone won't recognise as a drive to the laptop though. Any advice people? Perhaps a suggestion also of a location of stock kernel for australian samsung galaxy s2 (using the virgin network).
That's just a soft brick, don't worry about it .

Hi (newb alert)
First of all thanks for all the info - followed the pistacchio thread to regenerate phone, that worked great. however, now once the phone is going again, repeatedly getting an overvoltage error message (did not have before) and the battery dying very quickly. I also cannot access the 3G network, but wifi is fine.
Can you recommend a course of action for this, not sure if i have flashed back to a complete stock rom or not, does that mean that the phone is still rooted? I would like to flash another rom if possible, but am not asking what one to use (have seen the rules of the site Sometimes the battery is even flashing . kernel version is 3.0.15-I9100XXLPH-CL118559 and build number is IML74K.XXLPH.
Any more info needed I am happy to provide. I was really happy with the slim ICS rom and would like to stick with that in the jellybean option if possible.
thanks
Go as stock as possible before going custom again.
See if issues persists.
Make sure you flash the right ROM for your device, noticed you're on I9100 ROM and you've only stated you own an "s II" , so, I cannot recommend any specific ROM because of the variants.

Ok a friend S3 started acting up I didn't back up so I lost anything
When I tried to put back the original firmware on the phone using Odin for no reason at all will it be installed. It will just stick on Nand writing in the bottom part of the screen and nothing on tp part of the screen that would usually show FIL, PASS etc.
Next thing with some other firmwares the blue loading bar on the phone will go to basically 100% but nothing will happen on the phone
I did get on 2 firmwares, one just kept booting to the Samsung logo then go in a revolving boot sequence with the animation coming up, the other firmware I got on seems like it belonged to some other phone company and after their boot screen comes up and the Samsung's logo come on the screen it will just stay there.
In both cases the phone was left after installation on both screens for hours with no success.
All I want to do is put back on the 4.12 JB T mobile version enter unlock code and give back to my friend
Can I get some assistance please thanks

Factory reset to get past the forever spinning Samsung logo. The Odin fails are probably due to incorrect firmware.
