No, the guide which is used to unbrick, in that i am stuck at flashing(see attachment) at data.img????
Ok download mode it's good, flash stock GB ROM, than the wipe code, *2767*3855#
It should wipe now. After that flash the cfroot the newest one, don't have to be your version , when it reboots go to recovery, it will be new recovery now, 5. **
From there format system partition plus all other usual wipes.
Now go to download mode again and flash the stock GB or ICS ROM and wipe with code one last time. You should be fine now.

I followed the guide in the '[READ THIS]' thread and flashed a stock rom (i already tried about 10 different roms), but i still get a boot loop.
As i can enter the recovery and download mode without a problem and there never seems to be an error message after flashing i don't think that there is something wrong with the hardware.
Does anyone have an idea what i could do?
Also i somewhere read that you can fix pretty much any problem by using a riffbox.
Does any of you guys have any experience with that thing/ know if that could probably fix my problem?

Not necessarily.
Similar thing happened to me with KI8.
Was all good on KG1.
Flashed intratechs KI8 all good.
Flashed cfroot for KI8 had to factory reset to get root to work.
All was good at this point.
Flashed siyah 1.8 kernel all good.
CWM backuped.
CWM flashed % battery mod and stuck on Samsung logo at boot.
CWM restore still stuck at Samsung logo at boot.
Tried lots of things to fix but no go.
CWM restore of KG1 and all good again.
Still trying to work out what went wrong and will post the fix when/if I find out.

odin is working ,cwm mode is working and even downloading mode is working.
this problem happened after i flashed slim ics rom yesterday 29-4-2012 on my i9100. the main problem behind it is that i'm not able to factory reset the phone.
whenever i try to factory reset my phone in cwm mode or recovery mode,my phone hangs.
i can format my phone through system /format.
i can wipe cache ,dalvik cache and battery stats.
i flashed many roms and kernels but even after flashing any rom or any kernel in my phone ,it doesnt work.

please guys tell me a way out..
if i flash a rom on my phone then binary count is not increasing but when i install a kernel then it increases. why so?
i can format ,mount ,unmount anything on phone but i cant format the user data or do a factory reset while doing that my phone hangs.
i even tried .PIT file with repartition ticked in the odin.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN ???

wel u have a soft brick ma8 dont panic just dwnl a odin flashable stock GB rom and install the same
after that search the forum under samsung gs2 how 2 root ur phone with stock gb fallow the instructions and root ur phone
then select the ics rom like lightening rom and flash thru odin
every thing will be fine
Reading the post, seems like OP did flash a stock file (although ICS, not GB).
2 dumb questions just to confirm. You have the i9100? not the i9100G? Also have you waited a certain amount of time after you flashed those roms? It can take up to a couple minutes for it to first boot.
If above are fine, (you have i9100, and you waited a long time and it was still stuck on i9100 screen)

Factory reset is not required after flashing a rom .
You load rom via Odin it finishes install and then reboots itself .
You load rom via CWM and it goes to reboot screen yes and phone reboots .
As said a stock gb rom flashed via Odin preferably after a format of system data and cache should be your first step .

i did that.

Looks like you have siyah rc6. Make sure it's not from the 21st, iirc.
Don't factory reset just to be safe.. Restore your nandroid if possible and change to a later version.
Hope all goes well

yup i had siyah 3.1rc6 on my phone.
i tried to restore my nandroid backup but there is no effect on my problem.
how to know weather emmc is fine or currupted?
Try to mount it in CWM and connect it in linux computer and run fsck to check the eMMC. Windows chkdsk is no good.
And please try to remember, did you do this step: flash bad siyah rc6 then wipe/factory reset and get stuck?
if not, then the problem is different from those who flash bad rc6 (which is removed now and siyah is safe)
any thing is not working.
in every thread its written that if my phone goes in download mode and recovery mode then its soft bricked but then how can i unbrick my phone?
or is there any hardware problem?
i can mount and unmount every thing in recovery mode
i can format every thing but only user data cannot be formated,when ever i format/data or factory reset the phone hangs.
is there any other way of hard resetting i9100.?other than cwm recovery?
Have you tried flashing with the .PIT? I doubt it'll work, since other people also tried it, but it's worth a shot.

Ok heres what i did.
First On 2.3.6 KL1 i presume. Rooted my phone using CF ROOT
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
Then Installed F1 Galaxy Nexus ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601518
Then tried to dual boot (Greedy me!)
The other ROM i thought of was Resurrection ROM..
Then i installed it. Using this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24233085&postcount=2
So the next time i installed Siyah 3.2b5 My phone didn't boot after The initial S2 logo.
So I then flashed a new ROM KL8 from Odin
Its working fine.
But am not able to install any other ROM.
Any idea what might be the issue?
Thanks in Advance

Hi..
I did what you told me to. Still get the same boot logo
Guess my phone is done for R.I.P
Don't think so phone is rip, download the file again, or try some other ROM
If I were you I do this
formatting system, cache, data and after that flash stock GB using Odin.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
What intrigues me is that, If i use KL8 alone (which is flashed via odin) Am able to use the mobile. use it well actually
But if i try to use any other ROM its stuck in the Boot logo
I tried LPQ from Intratech. Even that didnt work.
I thought this could be an issue with the kernel
(But i realised i was able to flash CF Root's kernel and move back to stock kernel so there would be no issue with regards to Kernel.)
Incorrect or Incomplete download wont be an issue i guess as I tried two to three ROMS.
Btw. I used this link
http://www.technetinfo.in/mobile/mobile-software/i9100xxkp8-android-403.html
I followed all the Instructions (Guess may be cause of the PIT file. I'm not sure cause ive seen in posts that we should not lay hands on PIT files)
So someone please help me out.
Will be ever so grateful

By formating system cache data you mean wipe options in CWM right. That i have done lotsa times. Can kernel failure cause these issues, as once i got Kernel panic mode error??
If you follow a link from another forum why not ask them its their instructions after all .
XDA says total wipe of the phone and start again.
and do not touch a PIT file ever .

Clean Slate for those that balls up the firmware .Or need to return to service or decide if its hardware/firmware problem .
Backup data first if phone is working .

Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .
Pick your custom rom and follow instructions .

I think the problem was that you tried to dual boot with a 4.0.3 and a 4.0.4 ported ROM.As far as Im aware 4.0.3 is the supported ROM for dual boot with Siyah kernel.I personally wouldnt trust 4.0.4 dual boot yet.Do as posted above and you should be O.k.

Hello
I've accidentally flashed a wrong cwm-recovery (meant for some other phone)
After the installation I've rebooted into recovery and it booted the one I already had (that's when I understood it's the wrong one)
Then I've tried to reboot back to my rom but it got stuck on the rom's loading screen
Tried to flash a new rom after using gs2RomWipe
Tried to restore from a nandroid backup
all of them gave the same result.. stuck on the loading screen
Now to my question...
If I flash a stock Rom via Odin.. will it be enough? will I be able to reroot and use my phone normally again?
Or is there an easier way maybe?
i did the same today..
all the time bootloop..
flashing same rom that i was using did not helped..
flashing some other rom helped but cant call cause phone dont see simcard..
flashing some other roms like cyanogenmod also stuck my on bootloop..
I am pretty sure you have to flash via odin.
Update...
I've flashed a stock rom via Odin but it went into a bootloop
when I've entered recovery it said E:failed to mount efs (invalid argument)
so far I've found no way to make the phone work
please help

still nothing...
and it usually takes 1-2 mins max for me
also doesn't explain why stock from odin wont work
It seems to me that I need to somehow fix the efs folder but no idea how to do that
almost all the guides I've seen about that requires the rom to work and use root explorer
the others wasn't clear enough or just not related
according to the shell commands my efs folder is empty
copying the efs folder I have on my sdcard doesn't help because it's not there after reboot
I have a tar.gz as well but not sure how to use it
can I flash the .tar via odin? or some other solution with adb/shell?
or do you think it has nothing to do with my problem?
anyone have any idea how to help me???
I've tried many different ways but my device just wont make it past the loading screen of the rom (doesn't matter which one)
I really have no idea what can cause this problem
thought that flashing stock rom via Odin should fix it but it doesn't help
I've tried some methods I've seen to fix efs problems but so far nothing helped
I'm really desperate at the moment :\
download mode and flash the cwm kernel via Odin should work.

Did you get your device fixed?
OK.....just a quick thing......Odin flashing a normal single file stock firmware *may* not be the solution as it just overwrites what is already there during the flash. I will provide a link to a three part firmware that wipes the old as it flashes.....this essentially flashes the firmware onto 'pristine' memory partitions....it *might* help......
Here's the link.....
http://www.mediafire.com/?1z5ao5b6r594x45
Search for @Hopper8s Odin troubleshooting guide for instructions on how to flash it.....
Good luck.....
This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM

Can you try flashing official firmware?

Siyah 1.9.1 is only for 4.1.2 did you tried it on 4.3.. if you did then are you able to go to ??
If you can go to recovery then just flash another kernel and you are good to go...

can you get into recovery or download mode? if so, just reflash either a stock kernel zip (you can find them in perka's stash I think) or a stock rom (includes stock kernel). Should you have flased siyah on newer android versions, as mentioned this would also not work, just flash a kernel that supports it then and see.

If a rom or kernel gets stuck after installing first thing to try is to go into recovery and factory reset.

Sounds like partition is corrupt!...Try flashing latest PhilZ recovery with odin and see if that mounts data if getting same error I suggest as a last resort to try this >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6 << try any and all other options suggested by people first.
