Cellphone freezes at Start Screen - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hello there guys, well I just bought this phone today and already doing a mess with it.. its natural cause I study Informatic so It may improve my skills, Im from Venezuela so the cellphone has to be unlocked, which it haven't yet..
So lets start with all the mess I did, also too I think isnt "BAAAAD" I just dont know what to do at this point..
Well first I started "looking how to root", Cool I DID IT! I did it actually with "SGH-I777-ATTGalaxyS2RootStockZedomaxKernel"
Okaaay, cool... my cellphone restarting, look for the Application to find my "Unlock Code".. SURPRISE! "Code Not Found " AND A PLUS, My Wifi Connection wasnt working.. So I read the post a pretty bit more, then I read "download this Kernel, It will definately solve WiFi Problem".. Downloaded "CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_KK5-v5.0-CWM5" Okaay, my cellphone get on again, and when I touch the 2 buttons at right (The search and go back buttons) It doesnt do anything, YEEYYY, so as I knew I already got a "Powerful" tool, the CWM so I act like a dumb and accidentally pressed "Wipe /System" Cause I didnt know how to use properly the volumen +, - and power buttons in that menu.. Now my cellphone doesnt have /System folder.. at this moment Its on with the "Android System Recovery" I got 4 options..
"Reboot system now" (Wont work, will go till the SAMSUNG S II screen then freezes)
Apply update from sd card (Dont know how to use it, or even for what it works)
Wipe data/factory reset(It will bring the phone to 0, but still not working)
Wipe Cache Partition(? dont even know what the hella is this)
My phone has the 2.3.6 version, gingerbread.. Hope someone could help me before my mom kills me..
Thanks in advance, José
PD forgot to add, the pc isnt available to do anything with the cellphone.. it seems like it even deleted the drivers, or something..

just to forewarn you, people here are about to flame you for using galaxys2root and zedomax to do anything to your phone. NEVER go back to that site. It's why you are in the situation you are in.
Now, I don't really know where to start with repairing your phone, but one thing you should do is read a lot more here on xda.

First try to go into download mode,
Volume up+home+power button...if this not work try volume down instead of up...and let me know

This will help you get it back to factory setting. Read it all before you do anything.

When your phone starts up does it say GT-I9100 or SGH-I777?

Yes im at the download mode, its working properly!
Jackman:
Okay so I will download the 270mb file that looks to have System, and everything because its an COMPLETE OS..
I will tell you more about it in 37min(120kbps download)
So I will download it, then use odinv3 + cellphone in download mode.. Im right?

Another point for zedomax...epic fail

I would take it as a lesson to listen first and do then.. I wont let a guy who probably did a messy OS, or anyways(Im used to Blackberry Language) brick my cellphone! Im downloading the UCKH7-CL503881 then install it with Odin into my samsung, right?
Sideways guys... Are those "Unlock SIM apps" on Market trusty or untrusted? Should I buy an IMEI(25$) :/ Or could I get those one for free? My cellphone have the simcard locked..

Done!
Now its working again, thanks guys!! From here on now Im going to be careful with my baby and read first then do..
You're going to see me looking how to ROOT and how to unlock Sim Card in the few hours.. Topic can be closed and thanks for so much help!:laugh:

Hey man, I feel for ya... but you really need to search xda for some of your questions... the answers are there. Good luck, maybe credit will read this in the morning and will be able to help. The guy is an ACE!
Much love creepy!

So are we getting any kind of credit for fixing all the screw ups people are getting from going to this guys site? Lol. Is anyone recording how many people post here after going over there?

[q] help needed !!

Hi all,
I installed a kernel on my phone so that I was able to Root my device.
My phone was booting up and I saw the yellow explenation mark underneath the the Samsung Galaxy S II logo.
There's only one issue, my phone won't start, it freezes at the boot logo and won't do a thing :/
How can I fix this?
It freezes or is it in a bootloop?
If you got into bootloop, check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108499

It won't enter in Recovery mode,
When i hold down home, power, and volume UP the bootup-logo (Samsung galaxy S II ''With Explenation mark) shows up, than dissapears for 1 second than shows itself again and it's just freezes like it did before.
Now I never heard about a Boot Loop but this looks very disturbing.
I need some help with this.
Jeezus Christ, you joined today and already posted in the wrong section, didn't bother to read or search. So on that note I HOPE your device is Bricked just to serve you a purpose of reading before hand.
However since you are unable to read or search, we will treat you like a child. Your device is not bricked. Turn it off, take out battery, unplug from computer. Put back in battery and press volume DOWN, power and home until you get into download mode. Then plug into computer, start odin and either reflash the kernel in PDA box, or flash a stock rom.
Now this is been covered numerous times, so I will ask again to read next time before you post a question that has been answered 10000x times over.
Also if you would have read anything at all, you would know that you will get the yellow triangle when flashing any kernel but a stock on. There is a way to get rid of it, but that requires searching and reading. Something you know nothing about.

At first I would like for you to tone it down a little bit, I searched down the whole Internet, I just didn't now under what name I had to search.
Since I don't know the name of this particular issue, I couldn't find it on this website nor on the Internet (wich is obvious). So I started a treath to release my question.
Before claiming and occusing me of something, aks me the questions first.
You're judging a book by it's cover and your arrogance blind you.
But i'm not here to occuse people of something or giving them names etc, I'm here for some serious bussines.
Now...
I saw your answer (possible solution) and I wan't to thank you for this, I will give this a try and keep this treath updated.

Yes wishing loss, due to lack of reading. If you notice my reply I did offer help. Just had to ensure he posts in the correct section next time. And as for your phrase you said. Never heard it.

You are wrong... step 2 says: Hold down home, power, and volume UP. This will enter recovery mode. If you are using CF-Root, you'll get CWM recovery. If not, you get stock recovery. It doesn't matter which appears.
As I said, you should enter recovery

No it won't go in Recovery mode unfortunately.
I think my phone is bricked as I noticed the ''Phone...!...Computer'' logo when I tried to start it up.
Can happen, now It's just the challenge to find the solution.
Perhaps I should go to the store and tell them if they can help recover it.
If you got any suggestion what I should do it would be wel used.
In the mean time I will earch on the Internet and the forums how to unbrick the phone by myself.
Note - I still can enter Download Mode.

Did you have a custom rom installed before you ended like this?
Did you even try DOWNLOAD MODE? You dont not need recovery. You need download to flash the kernel again or a stock rom.
VOLUME DOWN, HOME, POWER until you see the "downloading, do not turn off"
Then connect to odin and reflash the kernel in PDA

No,
It all happened after I installed a costum-kernel (The one that I need in order to root my phone) I followed the instuructions of a Youtube webpage.
I did root my phone before to try it out and it worked smoothly.
After I realised that I could so much once a SuperUser i wan't it to Root my phone again but it all went wrong when my phone was rebooting after I installed the costum-kernel.
I went into Download mode, I tried to install the latest firmware on my phone, yet it failed to do so, so i plugged out my phone, shut it off, turned it on and all of a sudden I saw the *Phone...!...Computer* logo wich (if i am correct) stands for a (Soft)brick.
I re-installed the costum-kernel and the Brick-Logo isn't visible anymore, but I'm back at the previous problem, The Samsung Boot Logo with Explenation Mark freeze issue.
Once I entered Download mode I noticed that Costum Binary Download is set to (Count 5).
I need a good tutorial how to fix this, I'm quite new with the Android (half a week)
Help is well appreciated.

[Q] Miui Rom causing probs

Prob has been long fixed. Just flashed stock and re-rooted.
look bro
its really not that hard... download something called remount, system rw ro, root explorer, or terminal em: if you know how to use the mount -o rw noatime mtdblock2 [email protected]/system yaffs2 remount, I suggest remount from the market, its quiet simple to mount any file system read write with the apk. then install xrecovery installer again, and/or just cp the files needed. you're in quite good shape.. my x10 is really dead.. I could flash any rom with the flashtool or the .bat nt command prompt and it would flash fine but it wouldn't boot into the bl... eventually it wouldn't accept anything.. error right off the flashing loader.. the Windows NT .bat script probably would of worked if I had 2 weeks to spare.. after 24 hours it finally flashed the loaded and I said **** it and disconnected the usb and broke it half with my hands..
it did expose the rsa key in which completely blew my mind.. I have it still I sent it to my email but that's top secret im holding semc up for a new phone and if not im blasting that damn key all over xda.. I bricked the moto flipside in less than 2 weeks and now they have a fix but I can't charge the ****ing battery to fix the little piece of ****.. its actually quiet fast.. stock 2.2.no root. but anyways man if I were you id stick to one rom..its been months and theres nothing new on here I see the same roms but with gingerbread which isn't anything special and you probably should make a backup of some sort or just get a tablet.. I can't wait til mine arrives one f'ing day. anyways, good luck..
I about cried rofl when my x10 wouldn't turn on the LCD (fb0) for a god damn thing... I believe it was because I was feeling a little courageous and flashed a kernel in dev with atts 2.1 firmware w/ the 2.0.52 baseband......

Help, custom rom factory reset
PLease forgive me if there is a better post than this to reply to, Iam currently running out the door to work.
So i was happily using my custom rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913610) when my asshole friend decided to factory reset it.
Now i get the se login screen for about 30 mins, afterwhich it will load to normal se sleep screen (blue bg with norm slider) i can still see custom battery meter an such but i cannot do anything, except for slide to unlock and then i see black bg with custom bar on top (batt meter sd card an such) it detects the sd card, but because of the super long load time i dont know if holding back works to get it into the recovery mode (needed for xrecovery).
Is there anything i can do to recover my phone ?
[EDIT]
So when I came back from work I started on the phone right away.
When I try to use Sony Ericsson Pc Companion to update the phone I get stuck at the "Please mount sd card" screen on my laptop
When I used Flash tool 2.9.1 with X10a_1.0_2_1_A_0_435.tft I am able to get the Ftool to find my device however I get a message saying that the flash has been aborted after It displays the date
After a bit of looking I have found Flashtool 3.0.0 as well as X10a_2.1update1_r2.1.A.0.435_Generic.tft
Iam going to try these files to see if there is a difference.
[Edit Edit]
Good thing no one replied to my hasty cries for help (seriously thx)
Cause those files worked, its fixed.
This time when i connected the batt and held back the phone was detected and the files finished flashing after 4 mins an the phone started up in spanish.
Now that the phone is stock again, Any advice as to what custom i should try next ?
-mike

you are really not giving a lot of details here...all you are saying you tried installing a rom and then it froze halfway..
Are you rooted firstly?
If you are have you flashed CF-root kernel?
How did you try to install the rom?
More info and then more people can help you out buddy..see if you can get into recovery and restart your phone.
well... if you've tried "every" (its not like there are a lot) button combination... then just go buy a jig from ebay and force it into download mode...

Nothing from what you said would help..
He obviously flashed it with Odin, and he said he's getting a yellow triangle with a computer behind it..
From what I understood, he could get into download mode.
So just boot into download mode and flash stock ROM. That should do it.

anyone else seeing an increase in the "i bricked my phone" threads?
dont think its coincidence they are increasing after the american variants have been released. People need to check what model they have before flashing things.
OP: not saying thats what has happened to you as you dont say if you have the i9100 or not, hopefully you do.

its ok and same goes by my post as well buddy..we all been in his position one way or the other
1st - Your phone is not bricked if it show an image. Whatever image it is. The only real software way to brick your phone is to flash bad bootloader or stop a bootloader while they are being flashed. However, Bootloader are flashed first. So if your phone stoped half way, you should not have trouble too much.
Remove the battery from your phone for like a minute, then reboot your phone in download mode (vol- + home + power and when the phone light up, release power.) Then flash another rom from odin.
Also, what rom did you used ? If you flashed a rom for another phone, then you might have flashed bootloader for that phone on yours, which is bad. In this case you will surely need a JIG.
sorry im new to this whole rooting/flashing thing. i downloaded the lightning rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1095274
i have never rooted or doneanthing to my s2 before. all i did was follow the instructions on the page and thought it would be all good? it froze about a quarter of the way there in odin so i just took my phone out.
I usually find from this state I can get back to bootloader or download states
push and hold vol+ and home then power for bootloader
push and hold vol- and home then power for download
sometimes the phone can seem to freeze a little or even die (this happened to me loads on the galaxy s and once already on the s2) and removing battery sim etc or attaching the charger can jog it
however as other have said a JIG is your friend if for no other reason that even if you recover without it, custom roms up the rom count which some twitchy carriers might invalidate your warranty for, the jig will reset this
you can get them from ebay for less than £3 delivered, or there are instructions on this site for making them yourself if you are so inclined.
simply search 'galaxy s2 jig' on ebay mine was delivered today from portugal as I am way too lazy to make one and only wanted a counter reset anyway

I moved system tuner into the user apps out of sys and immediately got errors almost back to back as everything on my phone crashed, i tried desperately to navigate back and undo the process before the phone died but i failed and now im really scared its bricked.
I cant reboot its stuck on logo (no animation)
I cant safe boot (stuck on logo and says "starting rsd protocol.
Please is there any thing i can do, any way to reverse this, i was just gunna go into safemode and move it back. Do i need to flash over a recover? Can i even? Im so scared its bricked
I also have super user installed and i set it to auto allow but after the move this was changed? Default set to no when system tuner app asked to switch and that messed it all up?
Please please please help, sorry if this is bad section im not sure why my acnt is "new" its yrs old and ive even helped some noob programmers on here in the past, yes noobs can help noobs
So even if u have ideas let me know... Im scared
Android 2.3 moto atrix
Edit: yes im rooted, no custom roms. kay ima just sit here the next seventeen hrs waiting while i surf the web, thanks so much to anyone who even reads this! Ive done so much worse learning to "program" for android. I mean i cant believe i didnt brick it in the past, these things seem unbrickable (hope).
Edit2: wow this is gunna be a long one... Zero finds online... Zero :/ i tried taking battery out for a while didnt work... Not sure what that does anyway... Reset some kind of voltage dependent cached info?
Edit3: going to try to put this in a more appropriate section. Sorry i didnt mean to put it here :/ grrrrrr sry
You could boot in recovery and perform what's called a factory reset. That will factory reset your device. It should work as long as you got a recovery of some sort. Not sure if it will affect your root status but since your stock and rooted, you could just reroot.

Omg!!! Fuuuuuuuudnuts! Anything at all not related to recovery
Also any help on that factory reset? I have two copys of backup of cellphone. One on pc one on phone. I have titanium-backup on phone (i had it frozen using system tuner)
But... I have absalutly no idea whatsoever what to do... How do i even get this atrix into recovery? Ill go check but if u no offhand pls tell me. Also if anyone knows the exact problem i am need to know, because something this simple shouldnt require a recovery!!!!! Plus im not even sure that will work (( so if anyone knows wtf happened please tell me
Funny hpw the brain works... I was gunna make backup before doing this... But the extra 10 mins was too long ((((( anyone know a way that involves only flashing? From what i know two types of flashing exist and one lets you edit by bit which means maybe i can just move over a file? Im not sure what im talking about or which technology is used/or mainly used in the android. Anyway i will do a recovery if i have too but im gunna wait few hrs.
I think ii found a way using cwm.. But i dont have that idk why ........Its amazing.... New phone :/
Can somebody please help i tried factory recovery still no success ((
Im guessing its bricked... Which is pretty sad because the technology should let me fix this i want to know exactly what happened... I moved one app out of /sys that i put there ((((
I can enter android recover mode and nvflash and some others that i dont understand.
In android recovery i tried factory reset data and clear cache. Both of which should solve my problem.......
Im baffled it didnt work, should i buy a sd card and load my backup from pc onto it and select it in android recovery as backup? I always thought adb mode was merely flashing reprogramming read only parts of memory... I hence thought i could just use nvflash... I read alot and i still dont know if i can.... I know technology allows it... But.... I found this ?
