Hi all!
I was flashing lite'ning rom. Did everything just as the post did but my phone is stucked at the samsung screen.
It is important to let you know that I used this rom before, then correclty flashed cm9, then RGUI V10. Then I decided to flash lite'ning again but went unsuccesful.
Can anyone help?
My phone is able to go in download mode. It is the international version of the SIII in Mexico
Thanks!

Try wiping /system before flashing the rom again. If it doesn't work. Then get yourself an Odin compatible stock ROM to flash... if you can get in to download mode then you will be fine. But try the first step and see how it goes.

Edit: I wiped it. Now trying to flash rom again as suggested. If it doesn't work I'll try with a stock rom.
Thanks a lot for your help!

You're device is fine. I have the same thing and I've flashed hundreds of times. You just have to know what you're flashing and understand the basics

I am familiar with flashing. I had the LG Optimus LTE before this and flashed quite a few roms, This phone however has me awfully confused. I have been researching all day. And so far i am under the understanding that the touch cwm are not good and the use the 4.0.1.5 recovery. But what i don't understand is how do you install roms without wiping data/factory reset through cwm? don't most roms require this? and isn't that what causes the superbrick? Sorry for sounding like a noob. but can you tell me how you do your flashing?

Just use a different kernel, like siyah (www.gokhanmoral.com and make it's for the s2 not s3). Then you can wipe data. Just didn't not be on 4.0.4, and have a samsung based kernel (the kernel dev should have info in the op). Once you're on a safe kernel you can flash whatever you want and wipe data.

Ok so i flash the kernel via odin? because my phone doesn't have cmw installed. Siyah-s2-v4.0.1.tar that is the kernel i am about to flash. Is it safe for my phone? also do i need to do a backup of my stock kernel?

Yeah, you should be able to flash through Odin. And you can flash back to stock by getting a stock firmware from www.sammobile.com and flash through Odin

Hi, I have been having troubles updating my samsung galaxy S2 GT-i9100 from the rooted stock 4.0.3 XWLP7 to the last version of the official JB 4.1.2 for Spain.
I have downloaded the JB rom from Sammobile, decompressed it and installed it using Odin 3.04 but I got stucked in a Samsung's Logo boot loop.
I entered again in recovery mode and did a wipe data/factory reset and a wipe cache but it didn't fix the problem, also pull out the battery for some minutes and made a wipe again and nothing fix the problem.
Is there anybody here with another idea that not be a full wipe or to pull out the battery?
Thanks in advance
Wrong thread buddy..should ve in q+a..Anyway,you can try flashing it via mobile odin.it will give you the option to root the firmware you are flashing.Obviously the firmware will be as a tar file which mobile odin is designed to flash, and it will flash the relevant files for you.Ifyou need any more help just pm me.Oh and hit thanks!

Do you think that will be necesary to flash the .pit file? Could be a problem with the partition table? I have tried with Omega ROM v20, several stock JB roms and CynogenMod 10.1 and all of them didn't boot. The only rom that I was able to flash was the same stock rom 4.0.3 that I already have.

It all started yesterday when I was using my GT-P7500 (Rooted and Running Slimbean 4.1.2 ROM), I left it alone and I got some rest. After a few minutes it powered off unexpectedly. The following day I tried to flash the stock 3.1 using Odin3 v1.85, Odin said it passed, I looked at my tablet it was doing something it was supposed to do, it then went to the Samsung Logo (Not the Boot Animation) after that it got stuck in a bootloop, I tried going to stock recovery but it was no use, I couldn't get there. I can attachments if you can't understand what I am saying.
It now takes forever to flash stock rom.
My friend said to use another version of Odin3 so I used v3.04, But now it takes forever to flash, CAny help will be gladly appreciated.
Maybe try to flash a custom recovery and then flash another custom ROM, or flash stock ics ROM

Please help!!!!
Odin3 said that it was a failure, now my tab says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I selected emergency firmware recovery but my device doesn't show up. What should I do? Should I just turn it off ,charge it and try to use Odin3 again?:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
You just want your tab to boot right? If its not stock does it matter? If not, flash cwm recovery, make a full wipe then flash a custom ROM.

I flashed CWM and it was a success, now I tried going to CWM Recovery, but with no avail. It just says
Code:
# MANUAL MODE #
-- Updating Application...
Then after that, it will just say the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 Logo.
If I flash the Stock ICS Rom, will this resolve my problem?
You can try, but I'm not really sure though. I think you need experts help.

If the Important DATA is stored in ur phones Internal Sdcard (the 11.5 gb partition) then u can safely flash any stock firmware from ODIN
for stock firmwares u can check.
www.samfirmware.com or www.sammobile.com
and u can easily search for a video guide on youtube on how to flash a stock firmware on i9100 using ODIN.
......or you could check the stickyed threads on this forum right here on XDA for Odin flashing instructions.... No need to look elsewhere on the web when everything you need is RIGHT HERE......
This might be my S2, or it might be my W...but it's definitely CM
well its a CWM prob
1. search threads for how to flash stock rom back via odin
2. re root and install cwm
3. Install the correct rom

well modded roms are like for example
some devs take the stock rom push their kernals with some minor or major tweaks
it might be in UI or apps or can be of anything
in simple works taking a stock rom or any other rom and overlaying it with some tweaks
