None of the other posts I have read really seemed to answer what exactly happened to my phone.
I recently rooted my GS2 using ODIN and everything went over perfectly .
I noticed soon after that when the phone was turned on, the Samsung screen would appear, have a yellow triangle with an '!' in it, and also say I9100 (Which was the immediate give away something wasn't right).
Before I could do anything to the phone to fix the issue, the phone shut off on me, and now won't turn back on.
I have tried booting into recovery and download modes and can't get past the initial screen. The phone also will not charge.
When I connect it to the PC, it is recognized as a Samsung device, but not in ODIN.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT:
After troubleshooting, I gained access to download mode. Reflashed, and everything is okay.
Also that i9100 screen with the yellow triangle is normal. There are posts about how to remove the triangle by flashing a stock kernel or you can buy a jig on ebay.

please don't give information unless you know enough about the issue. Its awesome to try and help. But if you end up costing someone more time and aggravation by guessing or not knowing if you're right or not its almost better to let someone else field the question. As previously stated there's an app that fixes this.

Yupp exactly
Hi guys..Sorry for use this thread to expose my case. Yesterday late, I intended to replace the kernel in my Galaxy2 and I don't know why the phone do not pass over the original screen (see attach). No access to Recovery or Download mode is available. I tried to unroot and start again all the process when I felt a soft brick in the pass, but still no access to Download mode that permit me to access via ODIN and reinstall kernel and recovery to solve the problem.
Any suggestions??
ROM Task JB latest release 0830
Dream Kernel
EDIT. After a long fight with my phone using ODIN, Doomroot and other tools, thanks God, it's solve. Thanks.

Simple to remove yellow triangle: USB Jig
Second problem, try holding down Power + Vol Down + Home buttons together when the phone is off, until you see a verification popup saying if you want to continue to flashing a custom ROM. Then try reflashing your ROM or kernel.
well, in my country there is no USB jig unfortunately
second i got this problem in my second replay (look image)
there is no use when holding power+home+volume down or up
the same problem appear to me
thanks for your help
I doesn't matter if it's not in your country. Order one here:
http://usbjig.com/
Did you enable any of the checkboxes that were disabled when you started Odin?
Like "Repartition" or "Flash Bootloader" or any of those?
yes, all three was checked when i used PIT, PDA, PHONE, and CSC
There we are. The Galaxy S 2 does not need a pit file, you probably got a pit file for a Samsung Galaxy S.
<Warning information heard from other users>
In another big Android board is a discussion going on that flashing a pit file can fry the mainboard + battery as it will use wrong settings (the settings for the Galaxy S) and apply a too high voltage.
</Warning information heard from other users>
From my experience in that case even the jig does not work anymore (you could try it anyways) so you might either need to send it to Samsung or find somebody with a JTAG (won't help if the mainboard gets damaged).
@prodygee
i hope it doesnt take long time in delivery
ohh, dont tell me that the board is damaged
i didnt spent 24h yet!!!!

Nah, as I said, those are just reports from other users I couldn't verify (I'm not gonna flash a pit file just for the sake of testing!) so you should try the jig anyways, because it's not expensive and does the trick in many cases.
However if those user claims are correct not even a JTAG could help but let's just hope the best for the moment, there's no point in being scared beforehand.
I wish you luck and please tell us if the jig worked!
If you want to remove the yellow triangle and you don't have a jig it will be simple..
Flash Cf-Root
Flash stock kernel (cwm for cf root will remain)
Unzip the Cf root you falshed earlier until you get zImage and don't rename it
Open cwm
Choose flash kernel
Select the zImage you extracted and flash
After that there will be no yellow triangle after boot

@ephraim033
my friend i cant go to download mode anymore
how much do you think it cost when the board is damage more than $200?
i will try warrant company, then try jig
I see.. Why don't you take it to damsung service center and make a story that you updated through kies then kies broke your device.. Atleast try the service center because it's free, but if all else fails you can try jtag
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
oh man, i just take it to warranty company, they told that they will try to update the software (i think it wont work) otherwise they will give a new one!!
Why are you flashing anything without not knowing what your doing?!

they will send the phone to Samsung!!
Hello i am new to this website and i was wanting to know how to root my samsung galaxy showcase sch-i500 from c-spire wireless.I had my phone rooted before i upgraded to gingerbread the other day.I have found some directions on the website but i guess i am not doing them right.I downloaded the gingerbreak from chasefire and i scaned it with my phone but it is showing as wall papper on my applications any help would be appreciated and sorry for asking this question if it has already been asked thanks
Try this app
This is the easiest one I'd used to root my Fascinate I500, But remember to manually restart your phone by removing your battery and putting it back in. For some reason it's not doing that at the end of the process. Good luck.

Rooting i500
Did you ever get root enabled, I imagine you tried superoneclick and it failed. If you didn't get root I can help. It requires cwm and a root-package zip that you flash with cwm.
Problems rooting
I think it may have worked for the original poster but i am having BIG problems rooting my phone from cspire. The one click does not work and i have tried three other ways to do it. I am able to get recovery console access but past that nothing has happened. I followed the instructions at galay forums.net (wont let me post link but when i got to the part where i install the "su-x.x.x.x.zip" file i get the message "installed successfully. enjoy!" but when i reboot to try to go to the next step it always reboots into the recovery. Please help!

thats the exact setup I havei just got this phone asa replacement, did you use Odin to flash recovery then flash zip I linked up?I can send you what ever file you need to complete it(recovery root zip etc.) just lemme know
Sent from my SCH-I500 using xda premium
Yes I used the recovery flash (red clockwork mod) to flash the zip you uploaded for me. It says that it installs and that there are no problems but when I back out and reboot it will just boot back into clockwork rather than into the android os. The closest I've had it to booting right was using the su.x.x.x.x.zip file but when that was used my phone just boot looped (samsung logo boot up bid sanding logo for about two minutes reboot rinse and repeat)
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA
In clockworkmod recovery, I did not flash a kernel beforehand, and formatted the phone with wipes:
1. cache wipe, 2. factory reset/data wipe, 3. Dalik wipe or something in advanced
Afterwords, choose zip from internal sd card
from there I tried to install Rocket ICS V10 downloaded from xda, it crashed and went into blackscreen
The phone is now completely unresponsive. Power button. USB. Nothing.
______________________________________________________________
What are the options now? To send it back to Rogers and Samsung repair?
What do I tell them? That I was updating through KIES?
The problem is that they have locked the Gingerbread -> Icecream
preventing users from updating and encountering that "MMC-chip" bug that I've been reading about.
That's probably a procedure to prevent that, they've been noticing the amount of bricked Notes popping up left n right
So... back to my question: What can I tell them?
Maybe its bricked because you flashed a international Note (N7000) ROM onto your i717 Note? Do you have an i717 Note?

can you get into download mode by holding down Volume Down button and Power button. When your screen goes off, keep holding down Volume Down button but let go of Power button??? if you can then try this:

My Note quit on me last Monday all I did was a restore back to ICS Stock and it just would not come back on -Take it back to Rogers or wherever you got it and tell them that you were upgrading to ICS THEY WILL GIVE YOU ANOTHER ONE there was some bug during the upgrade process using the Kies ( so they say AT&T ) and they will swap it out for a refurb one - what's funny is that I did the same thing cache wipe, factory reset/data wipe, cache wipe restore & my phone did not come back on.
Keep your head up and remember that when you are flashing custom Roms you need to check every thing, read, then then re-check - then re-read EVERYTHING - You will be back up and flashing incorrect roms in no time. "It's hard out there without that Note" Young fella, Good Luck

The phone was not bricked. Bricked means it doesn't respond at all. Similar to attempting to use a masonry brick to make a phone call. Since you were able to get to download mode it was not bricked.
If Odin did not work, did you try Heimdall? Did you try a different cable? Computer port? Mobiletechvideos can repair a phone in this condition for less than the price of a new phone.
I'll pay shipping costs if you want to send that useless piece of junk my way.

Unfortuntely I have messed up my UK Galaxy S2 I91000G.
Id successfully rooted using this method and installed Neat ROM.
Happily used this for a while and then decided to play and installed Blazing kernal
The problems then started. It simply booted to the Samsung S2 screen and hung. I couldnt get in to Recovery mode.
Got it in to to Download mode and despite trying methods here Im not getting much luck. I can flash a kernal using Odin. Tried official ones and CWM and they install fine. The phone reboots and I get to the Galaxy S2 screen with the yellow warning triangle.
However whenever I try and flash a ROM it fails. Tried official ones from the fixit thread plus others. All the same outcome.
Is there a bootloader I can try or anything else I can do before I trash it?! Any help much appreciated.
So....flashing a kernel is a pass and flashing a ROM is a fail?
That's a new one.

Oh. Thats not good news!
That does seem to be whats happening:
Flash a kernal - Pass and phone reboots and I get the S2 screen with warning triangle.
Flash a ROM - Fails and back to "Firmware upgrade encountered a problem. Connect phone to Kies."
Flash a kernal again and back to S2 screen.
Any ideas?
Yes, can you get to CWM?

Cant get in to CWM no.
Can only get it to get in to Download mode.
Tried a couple of different PC's and cables but assuming as kernal flashing works, that isnt the issue.
And you are flashing I9100G stock ROMs right?
Check your model under the battery, G version in the UK? Weird.
While you do that download another ROM, maybe the ones you got are corrupted.
Sent from the little guy
Install syiah kernel and try to get into recovery. Then use wiperom script or go to mount and format everything (/data, /system etc). Then go to download mode and flash a system.
First thing check if syiah kernel is compatible whit your phone.

So the one comment that made me realise what a complete noob I really am was "G version in the UK? Weird."
So that was the basis for all my woes. I had ventured in to the I9100G section when I have I9100.
Downloaded the stock ROM for I9100 and all back up and running.
Mucho thanks to gastonw for his quick responses and patience for those of us just dippping their toes and not reading what they should.
