I got this S2 from UK my brother sent it and he had installed custom ROM on it.
I did a factory reset on it and after that the device didn't start.
My bro told me to install Siyah Kernal to make it work again but unfortunately after installing the Kernal i am stuck in Resurrection Remix screen.
WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?

Next time post questions in Q & A thread,, BTW dont panic. Download any ROM, then wipe data, cache and in advance, wipe dalvik, Install zip from SD card. Done ur phone ll boot up.. If this doesnt help then final is flash thru ODIN check the baseband of the phone then download from SAMFIRMWARE
After a full wipe (data/cache/dalvik), you should also format the /system partition and the internal SD card (save important files before). Then flash or install via recovery the ROM and everything should be ok.
Thank you everyone but when i press the power+volume dwn+home button it takes me to odin mode but not the normal screen from where i can wipe/format and do other stuff. How can i go to that recovery screen?

Volume up + home button + power button simultaneously. hold all of them until the samsung logo appears, then just leave the power button. Should boot into recovery.

Give us more details on what you have done exactly before you flash the rom.
And details about which rom.
One solution would be to flash stock.
Go in download mode with 3 buttons combo(volume down-power and home button) open odin,put as pda the stock rom as a tar and hit start.
Note: Be sure kies tray agent is not running in the background you have to kill the process with task manager
I also have this issue, after using a CM9 rom then rolling back to stock rom I have downloaded the stock rom, not sure if its 100 match for my phone but its stuck at samsung logo its 1 day old, please help?
Thanks
get into download mode and try flash again.
Right, I can go back to custom rom, but stock rom wont boot, any suggestions?
please try to elaborate the exact steps that you have done to get to that situation.
if you are now flashing back to stock rom. try this, flash stock firmware using odin, once done dont reboot. straigth boot into recovery mode, and wipe data factory reset. then boot.
ive got the same problem. i installed cyanogenmod 10 on and it worked fine but couldnt get to wipe the internal sd card so still had stuff from past roms on. I thought if i flash back to stock then it would clear it all then i could reflash back to cyanogen 10.
i flashed the stock in odin and it wont go past the samsung logo. cant get into the recovery mode to wipe cache as it just resets back to boot screen and cant use the samsung toolkit as i cant get into usb debugging mode as cant get it to boot
any help really appreciated

I had this issue before. Phone is stuck at samsung logo. I reflashed stock lfb firmware and cf root. Cleared data/cache/dalvik. Then it worked fine.
If every recovery method fails then only resort is to visit service center, go there and act dumb and state phone went crazy and this happened out of no where.If they wont find out that you've f***ked it up then you will get mo-board replacement.
Flash stock LFB from samfirmware.com through Odin.
Then flash Siyahkernel (also through Odin)
Pull the battery for 5 minutes
Press and hold vol-up + home buton
Press power button until screen lights up
You should be in cwm now. Factoryreset your phone and it should startup again
If you don't want to loose your data, instead of factory reset you can try using adb shell and run e2fsck on the block device for /data
Corrupt ext-Partitions are usually the reason for a softbrick

I encountered the same problem. I almost fainted when I can't solve the problem. Finally I did. this is what I did:
1. download the Stock Rom (depends which country and carrier you are) Unzip the downloaded file and you should have .md5 file that you will later use.
2. download ODIN
3. Launch ODIN click on "PDA button" select the .md5 that you extracted (the file you downloaded and unzipped) and click start and wait until it finished (hopefully this will solve your problem but in my case ... the samsung logo still is stucked so continue with my next steps)
4. download the CF Root from
note: this will install the CWM or recovery mode for your phone that will give you several options ...
5. use ODIN again and click PDA button and select the CF Root that you have downloaded and click on start until it finished.
6. boot to Recovery mode by holding "volume up (yes volume up and not volume down)" and "power" and "home button" all at the same time until recovery mode reappears.
7. go to advanced and remove dalvik cache, do a wipe out or factory reset, wait for your phone to restart ... wait a minute or two and your phone is back to normal.

i really don't recommend downloading a stock firmware now, coz of this hard brick thingy, u can just flash a kernel . tar like siyah kernel and then entering recovery mode ( vol up + home+ power ) and wipe cache and data/fatory reset and dalvik cache ) then download a rom.zip and put it on ur external sd then install it via install zip from sdcard in siyah kernel recovery u've already installed

It's only the new 4.0.4 firmwares that you have to watch out for. And I believe it only gets triggered if you do a factory reset / wipe data.

Redownload ARHD, it might not have finished while it was downloading. Once downloaded completely, flash it via recovery with "install from sdcard" option.

I've formated the /system and /cache, and reflashed (I9300XXDLIB_I9300OXFDLI1_I9300XXDLIB), now it's working again, now i'll try to do revolution hd again
i think i'm doing it wrong, re downloaded ARHD, after doing what i saied tryied to do ARHD again, and the problem reshowed!
In that case its either a bad download or user not following the instructions .
Question and Answer thread for ARDH rom is working .

And I know this is probably a stupid question, but have you got CWM installed? You're not trying to flash from a stock rom are you?

Hi i went from the latest unlocked 4.1.2 united kingdom firmware to paranoid android 3.10.
i decided to go back to the stock 4.1.2 so i downloaded it and from sammobile and installed via odin 3 v3.07 but it is stuck on the samsung bootloop. i can hold the power, home and down which takes me into that mode but using power, home and up does nothing.
Is there any way i can get out of this boot loop and use stock firmware again?
thanks.
Can you enter recovery mode.....vol up+home+power
If you can, flash cwm recovery via odin and enter recovery mode and then factory reset

you dont need to flash custom recovery mode you just have to boot into stock recovery mode and reset data and cache

Is there a reason why it got stuck in boot loop? Was it because i didnt wipe cache and the other two things first?

Sometimes happens flashing stock Roms from custom, it may be it only occurs with aosp to stock, but always wise to backup everything as stock reset will wipe sd card
I have a serious problem in my rooted S3. After flashing a problematic rom, i was forced to reset nandroid backup(i had already flashed the rom which i take the backup) Restore was successful, but suddenly I had issues with network("not registered on network") After flashing the latest modems from this video everything was fixed.
However when i flash a new rom from recovery, the screen always freezes on samsung logo. The only solution is to reset each time the latest that nandroid I had. In addition today, i have not acess in recovery(philz). What you suggest me to do? Sorry for my enlgish and thanks in advance for the people who answer.

Things are not so simple. I cannot have access in custom recovery menu. As a result it is impossible to flash a new rom,modem,kernel or restore a nandroid backup...

have you tried reinstalling the newest CWM of TWRP threw downloader mode and then trying to boot into it.

If you want to return your device to stock just grab the correct carrier OTA file for your X and flash it via Odin and you will be 100% completely stock. No root stock recovery and stock Rom
