I've had the phone for around 6 months, rooted it back in Feb or something.
Started having problems freezing and restarting a few weeks ago, has probably only done this only a handful of times, until this morning...
Phone locked up and restarted then started loading the splash screen directly after the samsung galaxy sII screen and got stuck in an infinite cycle. It doesn't vibrate when turned on and no buttons work the only means of turning it off when in the loop is pulling the battery.
I've searched this topic but all I can find are ppl that have un-rooted phones or ppl that just rooted their phones. I can get into recovery mode but don't know what to do after that... help!

I honestly don't know, I saw the update awhile back and wasn't on wifi so I didn't update it. Then heard on the offroad forum that I frequent that some were having problems with the update so I never actively seeked it out to install it and never saw it pop up again but I do update often so it automatically updates then most likely. I'm pretty savvy with electronics but don't really know any of the lingo yall use in these forums so please go light on it lol

I thought I listed all the info needed, what else are you looking for? It's a Galaxy SII, when I get to recovery mode at the top of the screen is: CWMR Touch v5.5.0.4 other than that I'll need more specifics as to what info you need.

go into CWM, wipe cache and dalvik cache(under advanced) and fix permissions, also under andvanced i believe.
If that doesnt help, might have to wipe data.

The only thing left to try would be to use factory reset in cwm. If that doesnt work then youll have to flash new firmware

I would suggest you try flashing stock UCKH7 to see if that will clear the boot loop. To do that, follow the guide in my signature. If you want to try straight stock, use the guide to return the phone to the store. If you want to try stock plus root, use the guide about flashing custom binaries. The download link for the firmware you need is contained within the guides. After you flash, see if the phone boots. If it still loops, enter 3e recovery and do a wipe data/factory reset. If it still loops, or not, let us know the results. Doing the above will be safe since the firmwares contain no bootloaders, and also are free of the eMMC superbrick bug.

Get into download mode and flash the stock UCKH7. If it still persists then your phone is screwed

You are a BadAss at what you do my dude, I enjoy watching your videos on YT, you literally turn bricks in to phones!!! Much props for the solid work you do and helping people out.... :good::good: How did you fix his phone Factory/reset right?

Well my good friend just bricked his Fascinate trying to go to the newest glitch kernel for ICS. It has been handed to me for fixing like many times before . This time though i don't think i can quite fix it. So the phone will automatically boot into ICS Recovery(5.5.0.4).
Here is what I have tried thus far from Recovery:
Wipe Cache Partition(Check)
Wipe Dalvik Cache(Check)
Wipe Data Factory Reset(Check)
This yields no results the phone just boots back into recovery. With that in mind I have/had tried this:
Wipe Cache Partition(Check)
Wipe Dalvik Cache(Check)
Wipe Data Factory Reset(Check)
Install teamhacksung_fascinatemtd-ota-eng.BUILD6.1
This too yields NO results. The phone again boots back into recovery. Actually it didn't boot straight into recovery I had to play with it for a bit.So the logical thing to do from here would be too boot into download mode and go from there either via Heimdall or Odin. Unfortunately neither are doing anything. The phone doesn't get recognized in either program. "Maybe it is your cable or your computer" I wish that were so but when hooking up my Fascinate no issues with either program. I have tried DaleV's methods for both programs and nothing. I have even tried getting the phone into download mode via the charging plug to see if there was any difference with that and no. I don't want to say it but i think the phone is completely BRICKED. So if any of you good forums members have any advice it would be greatly appreciate it.

I had this problem yesterday too. You have to flash build 1 not 2 then flash 6.1 again. It worked for me. Flashing 1 might give you an endless boot loop with your animation, but that's normal. Just pull battery and 3 finger into recovery and flash 6.1

3 fingering into recovery CAUSES a bootloop like the OP is describing.
He can try it out, but I'd be surprised if it did anything but bootloop. If I'm reading his post right, he can get into download mode, but the device won't be recognized by the computer? I'd recommend odin and starting fresh, but if the devices isn't being recognized then I don't know. Maybe look into getting/making yourself a jig? Although I thought those were more useful for getting INTO download mode..
I'm not sure, even though you said you can plug your phone in and it'll work, I'd just be trying different ports/cables and crossing my fingers

Yup went ahead and tried doing that as well. No other combination of cables does anything. So i believe the consensus here is.....Bricked Not cool but the upgrade deal that best buy is offering makes the Galaxy Nexus all that much more tempting.
I'm wondering how he got it bricked in the first place? If he flashed the correct kernel for his device I don't see how that could happen. Did he flash the wrong kernel for his device? If he did, maybe the you would need the drivers for that phone? Just kinda thinking out loud, that's pure speculation. Did he flash the kernel and then mess with overclocking or anything?
One other thing I've heard of that you might look into is the "unbrickable mod", but as I understand it, it's done at the hardware level so if you're not fairly comfortable with the idea of taking your phone apart I don't know if that would be an option.
Is it possible to flash CWM through ICS Recovery, then say ..stock rom, check if computer can pickup the phone and go from there??

My apologies i forgot to mention that. The funny thing is when we first got our phones he bricked his by setting setCPU all the way up LMAO. So i think this was the time of superclean on eclair so we didn't even have any over clock kernels or anything of that nature. This time around he tried doing the same idk what method though. He tried going to 1.4ghz but i don't believe that he properly messed with the multiplier or voltages.Unbrickable mod would be awesome but it would have had to have happened before this instance i believe. Even at that though given the situation i don't think it would have helped.

This seems like a good idea but just speaking to him a couple minutes ago he phone is no longer going into recovery either. If it was it may have been worth a shot but I doubt it would have done anything. I think due to his tinkering he has had a hardware failure at this point.
Ah, that makes sense, and yes I'd say you're right about the unbrickable mod. Not sure that it would've been able to help in this case where the hardware was pushed beyond its limits. Just because you have the option to max out the OC settings doesn't mean it's something you should do, lol! He might have been better off with the stock ICS kernel (which doesn't include the ability to OC).
I'm sad to hear this. I've been searching the Internet for people with the same issue. The same thing happened to mine except I have a captivate. I flashed the new ICY Glitch kernel from CWM and my phone buttons immediately went hay-wire, where all buttons performed the "back" function. So I pulled the battery and rebooted to find only a bootloop. The button recoveries nor download modes will work, so I used my jig I made to get into download mode, and just as you said no computers nor odin will recognize the device. Nothing, nada. Although it will charge the phone as it will show the big battery icon charging.. go figure. I wonder if the Glitch guys know about this yet. I would post but I'm still a noob so don't have enough posts or whatever you have to have.

First, if you're on a captivate, then you could probably be better helped in those forums.
Second, can you not use the volume and power buttons to navigate in recovery?
Believe me ive checked those forums, that is why I am here, looking for any glimmer of hope. No the button recoveries wont work, ive tried a zillion times a zillion different ways.

Dual booting has always been unstable and the only way out is to start from scratch. I would not advice dual booting unless you are able to spend time redoing it.

You have wiped your system partition. In order to get your phone working again either download a ROM from your device's forums, or download a stock ROM from Sammobile and flash it using Odin.

Use Google, there is more than enough tutorials on how to flash using Odin/CWM/TWRP.
I did do a bit of Googling for you and found this, please do verify the MODEL of your phone is "SPH-L300" before using these files:

In you first post it sounds as if you did in fact wipe everything, including your then existing ROM. Best thing to have done at that point was to use adb to push a ROM to your phone, reboot back into recovery using adb and install the pushed ROM. Even if you wiped all content of any kind, you should be able to us adb to install factory img, stock ROM, etc.
P.S. all of the above is probably still an option- using adb to restore, get into bootloader etc.
Hello.
I have a samsung galaxy s2 and its been working fine for more than a year. Few days ago, i did a factory reset and now when I power on my phone it stays on the Samsung logo. If i go in recovery, it says CWM-based Recovery v6.0.1.2-Siyah. and i have a lot of options. I did wipe data/factory reset and after that completes it powers on and goes in safe mode, i can do stuff for around 30 seconds and then it restarts and stuck on samsung logo again.
I tried flashing stock firmware but Odin does not detect my phone. i have tried on two different computers, they both have the drivers everything, tried on different ports, tried with different cables.
Please Help.

1) 'Please use a descriptive thread title'
2) Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread stickied in General, find it, try as many of the things in that thread as many times as you need to in order to get a successful flash. If you try the stuff in the thread two or three times then come back to this thread & say 'I tried blah blah a few times & still the same', guess what ? Your phone will stay busted. Why ? Because perseverance always fixes these issues unless the phone isn't recoverable. You need to try everything in that thread over and over and over if necessary. There's nothing that isn't in that thread which can be suggested in these situations. Why ? That thread is the 'Bible'.
So...Go...You now have the tools to fix your phone.
i have already seen that thread and tried what it advised but to no avail.

Tried but did not work.
Same thing happens, goes into the system, and then restarts after 20-30 seconds and then stuck on samsung logo.
Well,if you can boot,quickly go to phone's settings,scroll down and tap "about phone".Write down android,firmware and kernel versions and post here.
That stuff is irrelevant. OP, you're clearly not doing some things here or not telling us exactly what you did to get the phone in that state (like most people who get into this situation). Service centre.
i said in my FIRST post that after i did a factory reset, when i restarted it got stuck on the samsung logo.
Anyone ?
Please.
Well,if your current rom is messed up and can't use ODIN,you may try flashing a stock based jb rom through recovery.Choose the one you like,follow the instructions and that's it.
Just a suggestion:angel:
Could you please link me to which one i should download. i do not want to mess my phone up even more.

Which is absolutely correct.

What's the point in telling people what the rules are when you go and break them in the next sentence ? Why not just tell people to go read some rom threads & try some roms ? Do you realise how much more likely it is that a n00b will break their phone at some point in the fairly near future when you spoonfeed them everything, which is exactly what you've been doing for the past few weeks, as opposed to pointing them in the right direction & telling them to learn for themselves ?

I don't get you mate.The man asked me to suggest a rom so I did.Honestly,it was the only stock jb based rom I ever tried as AOSP is my home.As much as I hate stock,I know that rom has little to no problems,so that OP won't come back here anytime soon.Which is good.Never wanted to break any rules,but because his phone was in unusable state,I pointed him to (IMHO) the right direction.Is this a bad HELP?
I know I did some things here and there that made some noobs lifes easier.So this means I should always reply by saying:
Hey,there's search button for that!DIY!Troubleshooting thread is not for these kind of questions.Get outta here!!
That's not how I understand HELP.
Anyway,thanks for your opinion,really respect that.
Hey everyone and thanks for your help.
I deleted what seemed to me to be some worthless apps from my galaxy pocket neo using an app and now my phone is stuck on the boot screen. I have tried factory resetting my phone and after rebooting my phone will go through the original setup process, but ultimately after going through all the menus my phone becomes unresponsive. I am thinking that I need a new os.
I have seen the other help thread "stuck on boot logo" and I tried to understand the directions giving there, but have so far been unable to resolve anything. If I could get some clear instructions as to what might fix my phone I'd appreciate it.

Go here
Flash Samsung stock ROM for your phone and baseband using Odin. It should be back to normal. It will be back to unrooted factory state.
Alternatively, if your cwm is still working, just flash a ROM zip after wiping data, cache, advamced->dalvik cache.
Do mounts and storage-> mount system->format system in CWM before flashing ROM if above 2 methods do not work (though I'm very sure one of them would work)
---------- Post added at 12:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------
Make sure that you flash the ROM of Samsung s5312 and not the one mentioned in the Odin guide. Search for it .
I can't seem to find a site that will let me download the stock rom. All of the rom sites bring me to uploaded.net and I dead end there... Is there something I am missing on that website?
Thanks!
problem app system
May be you remove any important system app so i think you should install stockrom by odin or install custom rom ) there are many nice rom such as: cm11 , cm10.1
Same Problem

Ah i see. My apologies, I managed to fix it but it took a while. I had to download the official firmware from sammobile and flash it through odin. When i did that again i was stuck on the boot animation, but what i did was to go into my recovery and wipe cache, dalvik and also user data just to make certain and voila! phone works fine now.
I'm so sorry about your situation man, maybe you can try what i tried if you still got your phone. Its good as a spare!
Well done Sir!
I already spent a full work day on the sucker >.> I am just bitter and can't be bothered. Haha. Glad you were successful though!
