hi my phone just stays on the Samsung vibrant logo
i wont go to the recovery or download mode with the button combo
it just stuck on that screen i need HELP PLEASE
what rom you flashed?
odin GB rom which ported from GS
will change your bootloader
try: volum-&power,volum+&power
i flashed a miui 4 rom but ithink the problem was that i had an old version of cwm-- yes i tried the buttons combo nothing happens
i hope this helps
Use Odin to return it to stock 2.1 then use Quickfixlagfix.apk it only works on 2.1 and this will install CWM on your phone and from there the possibilities are endless,
and about the buttons not working try this:
open odin as adminstrator on your computer
hold the power button let it restart
let go of the power button, while holding the up/down volume key
as soon as it restarts insert the usb while holding the volume key
Good luck hope this helps
sorry i meant any version of one click lag fix old or new dont matter

I installed this kernel from Chainfire's thread: CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KH4-v4.1-CWM4.tar
However, my phone says that I have the KH7 kernel, but I figured this one ( KH4 ) would be close enough. It flashed fine, and I have root access and all, but my back button no longer works at all (not even haptic), and my Home button is acting like a back button - meaning I essentially have lost my Home button...
But now that my device is rooted, when I boot into debug mode, I get the CWM menu, meaning I can no longer use Odin correct? But because my home button is gone, I cannot select "install zip from sd card"
My question is this: Without the use of the Home button on my device, is there anyway to flash a new kernel?
Thanks to anyone who can answer this.
You just flashed cf root for the INTERNATIONAL SGS2 and NOT FOR THE ATT SGS2. That is why you lost some buttons. Make sure to use ATT SGS2 ROMS/KERNELS. There is a post about how to fix your issue in the att section to get you back to the att version of the SGS2.

I realize I flashed the wrong version, but my question is how do I flash a different version without the use of my Home key? That is the issue.

You boot into Download mode and flash the right one in Odin. How hard is that.

Can I still use Odin even if I have already rooted the device? Do I just hold up vol + down vol + power to boot into download mode? I thought that was called debug mode...
From the FAQ:
How do I put my phone into Download mode so I can flash w/ Odin?
Take out the battery from the back to ensure your phone is completely off, then put the battery back in. Now hold down on both the Up and Down Volume buttons and plug the USB coming from your PC into your SGS2. Once you see a warning screen let go of the volume buttons. Hit the Up Volume button to continue into download mode.
I found that you can just click the volume down + power button to get into download mode.
I think everyone is missing the point of my question. Can I flash my phone with Odin EVEN IF I ALREADY HAVE CWR INSTALLED? I cannot use CWR to flash as I lost the use of my Home button (cannot select from the menu)
I resolved my own issue. There is a difference between RECOVERY mode and DOWNLOAD mode. To boot into recovery you hold vol up + vol down + power, to boot into download mode you JUST hold vol up + vol down, then plug into USB. I did not realize there were two different modes, sorry for wasting time and causing confusion.
Yup, you can always boot into download mode as long as you didn't flash a bootloader.
Another way of saying it is:
If the screen turns on at all, you can recover by flashing something correct in download mode.
Okay so I had CM7 on my Samsung Vibrant and I wasn't satisfied because it had trouble with the GPS so I decided to go back to stock rom so I could then use a different Rom.. I flashed back with Odin ..
I'm now trying to get into clockwork recovery but whenever I'm in Rom Manager it doesn't reboot to it, the screen just freezes for a second and then doesn't do anything, just stays on the same screen.
I can't get into the DOWNLOAD mode as I've tried all the different combinations of Volume Up, Volume Down and Power button..
I really don't want to be stuck on 2.1 and feel like such a noob haha
Oh and the first screen when booting up my phone says I-9000 which I know isn't stock...soo maybe I downloaded the wrong stock in the first place? :/
That means you are on GB bootlooders. To get in to recovery, it's volume down + power button; download mode is volume up + power button. That or vice-versa, I never remember. But there is no Clockwork for 2.1.
I highly recommend this, has everything you need in one place.

Volume up + Volume down then plug in the USB. That's how you go to download mode.
No I've tried that..
1: Take battery out of phone.
2: Put battery back in phone.
3: Press and hold VolumeUp+Power Button at the same time. (hold until it goes into DL mode)
4: Connect to computer and Odin to JFD Stock image.
Help,
My phone just stuck at the Samsung Galaxy SII GT-19100G screen..
I can't enter CWM recovery mode or Download mode as well
When I press Volume Button UP + Home + Power, it will turn off the phone and never turn back on. When I release the Volume Button Up + Home, it turned back on and stuck at the screen again.
In fact I can't even power off my phone.. When I power off it, it will auto restart and stuck at the screen again..
Anybody.. please help
I'm only taking a wild stab in the dark here but my guess is you flashed firmware for the I9100 onto your I9100G device.
Best to download firmware for the "G" model and flash via download mode. If you have a jig it might come in handy.
Looks like you have some research to do. Good luck.

Yes, lucky I manage to flash it back to the original ROM.

For reference Vol Up + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Manual Mode, not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode.

NO NO NO it puts the phone to RECOVERY MODE
not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode
NO NO NO It puts the phone to DOWNLOAD MODE .

how did you solve the problem?
my s2 is stuck at the same screen
Guys if you want to keep you phone alive then FLASH ONLY ROMS THAT ARE FOR YOUR PHONE! DON'T RUSH STUDY FIRST!
i was on cm 10, then my phone stopped turning on, so i used odin to get the phone back to stock android, and it still wont turn completely on. i think my boot loader may be messed up? i have no idea.
when i press the power button, first thing i see is "Samsung galaxy gt -I9000" then a screen that says "Vibrant" then screen turns black and nothing happens. i know its strange that it says gt - i9000 but thats what it used to be with the cm 10 roms.
i get to the download screen by holding volume up + power button. i can not get to recovery which used to be volume down + power button.
please help!

The reason you see Samsung Galaxy GT-I9000 when you boot your phone up is because you have somehow flashed Gingerbread bootloaders to your phone. GB bootloaders allow you to boot to download mode with UP + POWER and recovery with DOWN + POWER. This is a good thing though, I have GB bootloaders too and its much easier to boot into recovery or download. From what I can tell you need to flash back to stock again, make sure you have repartitioned checked, correct files can be found from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849028. If it still bootloops then you may have a kernel problem, you could try to flash one of Fishman's 2.2 ROMS (Odin versions) and then flash a 2.2 kernel (Odin version), maybe this will boot your phone up.

Sounds like you just need to use Odin to go back to stock... Unless I'm missing something. Just look in the thread for you phone for Odin instructions and files
Here is the link I think you need:

hi
first thanks for the link ; i followed all the steps to the end point . but when i reboot my phone into recovery mode it turns on ok but the volume + power button wont work i don't know why the just stuck :
thanks i really appreciate you helping me
Have you tried only pressing the power button? Stupid question, I know, but what you're doing is trying to boot the device using the bootloader and/or recovery button combos. It'll always go back to one of those two screens doing that.
stucks in recovery mode the power button and the volume- i did everything the link showed me but when i reboot into recovery mode if it is possible to put another OS like ice cream or sandwich but not jellybean : right now im using my phone in safe mode cant download anything just listening to music and browser .my facebook.etc plz help if it possible
