What happens with Odin? Does it recognize your phone?

Please help me unbrick my SG2

Hi All
my friend tried to install some rom, but i have a soft brick ( phone ! PC )
i downloaded the firmware I9100XWKDD from: androidadvices.com/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-s-2-i9100-tutorial
and tried to burn it with Odin3 v1.85, I put the firmware tar in PDA
at first the odin stuck in rootfs step
then on my second try it stuck on boot.bin step
what can i do in order to fix the phone??
i know there is a newer firmware i dont care about new or old just fix the phone
Or i just need something else to do
Thanks!
Try it again. As long as you are able to reach Download Mode try to flash a firmware via Odin.
What OS are you using anyway? Make sure nothing is blocking Odin processes, I always Disable my NIS before starting Odin.
Thanks for quick answer
I tried three times now it stuck in the boot.bin
i am using windows 7 (running as admin)
i dont think windows is blocking because if it was, i couldn't start the process
and yes i can enter download mode i dont want to make things worse...
Tried with USB debugging enabled?
Something must blocking the process mate, I never had a connection prob!
so
The Phone is not start.... i have the (Phone ! PC) sign,
so i can only enter to download mode...
and again the flash process starts and stuck in the middle.
what else can block the odin?

if you have more ideas i will be happy to hear. thanks for the help so far
Make sure Kies is not running in the background, that could potentially block flashing

I see.. That was my fault
@OP: just to make sure download the fw again then restart your pc.. For me when i flashed my sgsl (will get and s2 soon) it was stuck in system then sometimes cache (flashed without pc restart) but when i restarted my pc everything was ok

Hello, Guys
What can I do if my SG2 fully bricked? Usb jig doesn't help anymore. No response from phone. Absulute nothing happen. Phone is dead.
Any idea how I can bring back to life?

Need some help! Unbricking...

Hi!
My friend has bricked his phone while he wanted to boot in recovery. As he told me he has a no-boot brick -> hard brick. We tried almost everything. we could connect it to odin. but it had Setup connection loop and we weren't able to flash it.. Now I just saw a video on youtube about USB Jig. I'm wondering about that it can really work with our Galaxy Ace.. If someone has some exeperience with it, please share it with us
Thanks! =)
The setup connection has something to do with not ending Kies completely

Well I asked my friend he told me that he removed it from his computer. Now he is reinstalling it.. I hope it'll work
We tried almost everything.. Only Power + Volume Up + Home button worked. Odin detected it and as we wanted to start the flash it came into a "Setup connection" loop. My friend installed kies again, but it did nothing. I don't know what to do.. :/
how bout the drivers.....?

Maybe u can try this, remove battery and sd card, hold vol down+power+home connect to yr pc then insert battery then wait for odin to detect. Be patient!!!
Hope it works.

Full BRick!

Phone will not boot, full brick. Anyone know how to remove the internal memory chip from the board and know of a device that can read it?
How did you manage this? A bit of information might be useful.
Thanks.

Flashed the omega rom and it just killed my phone.
No download mode
no recovery.
Not even a charging led light.

This might be helpful for taking the phone apart and working out what's what.

I would assume the chip would need some specialist equipment to read it though :/
Donate it to Adam outler for testing his unbrickable mod.
Bad luck dude.

Maybe its just dead and charging is broken? Worth trying an external charger or friends device to make sure, that really is bad luck I hope to get this phone but I wont be diving into roms until I'm sure this won't happen :/

Note + Don't blame the ROM, it is ALWAYS the USER, as it was your choice. Nobody made you try flash it!
Is your device a international I9300 or I9300T model?
What did you mean exactly "Phone will not boot", stuck at samsung logo? or phone just won't power on?
try usb jib for S3. you should be able to go to yellow download icon mode and then flash back the old stock rom again.

I have seen a lot of brick posts with the release of this phone, crazy stuff.

There was one time when I was able to get the LED on while plugged in to the PC, maybe that was it .I really hope that was it but Odin did not see it.

Update Galaxy S2 with Kies...issue

Hi,
I have tried to update my galaxy s2 with Kies but the update fails
Now when i turn on my phone it says "Firmware update encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
How can I replace the original firmware?
It was a Vodafone-it Firmware.
Thanks
check if u can go in Download mode keep pressing volume down + home + power after switching the phone off..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
yes it goes in download mode but i don't know what i have to do after that becouse Kies tell me that it doesn't see the phone and askme a code for replace the firmware....
Your phone is perfectly fine so Don't panic. You have to use Odin to flash stock firmware. Ask some other member for help regarding Odin. As I have to go for some work. And specify your phone's model no. Must be on the sticker that is on your phone below the battery..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
tell us your phone model
your OS version
and if you have any knowledge of Odin or Heimdall
hi, i have tried with odin and maybe i have selected a wrong files becouse it frozened...
I restart the phone and now it doesn't work, always black screen and now the download mode doesn't work too...
Solutions?
Lesson learned? Wait for instructions before doing anything Looks like you need to go to sammy?

I told you to tell the model no. And then we could tell you what files and which Odin. Maybe you have a variant 9100g which is Omap4 and you flashed exynos files on it..

the usb is ok, it charges the phone, connects to kies as well but not odin. i bought a usb jig as well. when i connect the jig it flashes "downloading" though it hard to see as its flashing non stop however nothing else happens.
