One what firmware on the phone .
There are only two ways not many ways Odin or Mobile Odin .
What firmware are you flashing to .
What instructions are you following .
But first just try a factory reset via recovery .

Make sure you allow it time to reboot as well, can take a while sometimes

was on AOKP Jelly bean.. everything was fine...
then i fash ARHD 2.1.1 then it didnt start... was it the superwipe?
and because of the superwipe, i do not have CWM in my phone... i only have download mode.. so i used odin.
which gave me this problem.
i tried flashing CWM using odin. which was successful, but then once i reboot it went back to download. not recovery, which means i lost my root rite? and stuck again at samsung logo. so all i need now is to restore to factory settings by odin and download mode.. no other way. so which file shud i use?

Using Non Samsung roms i always .
Factory reset
Remove battery
Install a stock rom via Odin .
Then root .
Nandroid restore or flash new custom rom .
In fact just done that from AOKP JB rom

download the latest and greatest from here and flash using Odin. After flash go to recovery and factory reset your phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646610

[Q] UK Galaxy s2 stuck at splash screen

Hi there,
I had Cyanogenmod 7 installed on my unbranded Galaxy S2 up until yesterday where I got stuck in a never ending (or at least >30mins) bootloop on the Cyanogenmod splash screen.
Not having access to the internet at that point, I tried a few things including flashing a different kernel onto it using Odin, complete reset, and now it's stuck on the Galaxy S II splash screen.
It is still recognised when I connect it via USB, and can access the download mode and Android system recovery, but to be honest I have no idea how to proceed from here.
Have I bricked it?!
Thanks for any help.
Try flashing original Samsung stock firmware,I had this issue yesterday and only stock firmware resolved my problem.

Which firmware did you use? XXKI4 isn't working for me.
....................................
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 .
Boot CWM recovery
Mounts and Storage
Format cache data system sd card .
Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .
jje
I get the stock recovery mode when I boot. I have flashed the two kernels I had saved on my laptop (the insecure and stock ones I used when rooting) through Odin and still get stuck at the Galaxy S II Boot screen...

Go to sammobile and search for your

You require a root and CWM install to use Clockwork Recovery .

*most probably* you would need stock recovery to install update through kies.. search a thread where there is flashable zip of stock recovery and flash it
as its booting into cwm [not tried method but looks same way]
Remove cwm too
And dont use ext4 stock rom
herpderp © aint got money to pay to my fish
Better flash Stock ROM via ODIN.

im sorry but this isnt working
Hi,
Had the same problem the other day. Tried a lot of combinations. In the end I managed to restore the CSC by resetting the flash counter with triangle away and immediately afterwards flashing a stock ICS Rom for my country with Odin (the PC version, mobile Odin didn't manage to resolve the problem).
Hope this helps.

anyone else?
flash the stock ics that came with your phone. do a factory reset using the home+vol up+power button. do a reset using the option in setting. try using the tool to change csc. did it work?
if not try again.
i had to flash twice and do the above before it worked for me for some odd reason. im no expert. thats what i did and it worked after i did that
If your phone works you do not need to change your CSC .

He's right. Always consider a data wipe when going to another revision. There are millions of backup utilities to conserve apps, data, texts, etc.

Yes it's save.
Make a backup before.
When finished do a full wipe and your ready to go.

And what backup should I do? If I flash with odin the custom recovery will be wiped and in case of a bootloop,i won't be able to restore using the backup.
Wipe using custom recovery,and right after go to download mode and do the job right? That's the way? Im just scared not to mess things up :/

You can do nandroid backup with CWM and then copy that backup file in your pc. If you have any problems you can flash CWM and restore that backup
If my phone is in bootloop,can I flash CWM ?
