[Fixed] Phone won't boot past Samsung boot splash - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

So I have a phone rdy to go back to warranty due to phone turning off at any random shake. So I'm in the process of trying to get my clockwork backup and titanium back up files off the phone to the comp. However, on the latest aokp with stock kernal, i wanted to mount usb to transfer these instead of mtp. So i was thinking of trying different kernals because i think i read that somewhere you can do it with dream and siyah. After flashing and not finding out to do it on dream, i flashed downloaded siyah. Went to flash said kernel in recovery and while trying to do the three button combo I noticed it would not work, just stuck on Samsung galaxy s2 boot splash screen. Odd, booted back into aokp, pressed power to reboot into recovery. Same thing. My next step was to odin ucle5 stock root file. Still no go. Even tried odin uckh7 stock root, still no go. Anyone have any ideas? Can get into download and that's it.
*Edit*
After persistence, I finally got into stock 3e recovery which gave me access to a factory data reset. This is what i needed.

Since u used Odin ( not mobile Odin but the Odin on the computer) to flash I hope u reset ur flash counter before sending it back. If they check it and see it reads anything but 0 you may get a hefty bill for any new phone they send u.

I had the same issue at one time. I went into the recovery and wiped data and cache then used odin to flash the stock ROM. It worked after that.

I guess I am blind and didn't see that he fixed it... fail

Flashing back to stock. ONLY FOR AT&T SGH-I777. NOT FOR SKYROCKET USERS.

Ok. Im wanting to flash all the way back to stock unrooted and start from scratch on my gsii. i know my flash counter has incremented but i really dont care about that. i just want to know if i can still do the odin one click flash to stock package in development. this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432. i am currently on cm7 nightly 11. is there anything particular i need to do? thanks in advance.

I posted a nand backup I did through cwm. If you extract the clockworkmod folder and put it on your phone, you should be able to see it in cwm as a restore. Hopefully save you a number of steps.
It's a clean stock backup that is rooted and has entropy512's kernel. No Google account has been signed in on it.

Indeed. Only issue might be putting on the right sdcard, either internal or external, for cwm to recognize it.
And just in case forums are still merged and skyrocket users see this, IT IS ONLY FOR AT&T SGH-I777 SGS II PHONES.
I don't want anyone messing up their phones because of me.

yeah should have stated that. but back to the question i asked. can i use the odin package and flash it or could something go wrong
Shouldn't be any issues as I'm pretty sure the PDA file contains the files to repartion. But I've never had to flash a phone through Odin to get off cyanogenmod. I've always run a backup of the previous rom I was on before I flashed cyanogenmod.
I've never done what you're looking at doing, so I'm cautious to tell anyone to do something I haven't done.
I wish the cyanogenmod forum had better instructions to revert to something else.

i just talked to entropy and he said that all i have to do is
2a.) Flash Entropy512's Return/Unbrick to Stock, Kernel + Non-rooted System Package with Modem using Odin3 One-Click Downloader (Windows)
Download the "Odin3 One-Click Downloader Stock I-777 UCKH7 No Bootloaders" package from MultiUpload or MegaUpload. Extract the contents of the zip file to a directory on your hard disk drive. This is a One-Click version of "Entropy512's Return/Unbrick to Stock, Kernel + non-rooted system package" plus stock modem from the development forum. (Contains stock zImage, factoryfs.img and modem.bin.)
Start the Odin3 One-Click Downloader program by double clicking on "I777UCKH7 OCD No BL.exe".
Now Enter Download Mode:
With the phone powered off, plug in the usb cable while holding the vol up + vol down buttons (but not the power button).
When the warning screen appears, press Volume up to continue into download mode.
In Odin, the small edit box in the upper left corner will turn yellow, and say something like [0:COM8].
Click Start. Watch the progress bar advance in green while the message box in the lower area describes the steps. When the flash is finished, the top left larger edit box will turn green and say PASS! and your phone will automatically reboot.
Unplug the usb cable from you phone after it boots up. Success. You're Bone Stock.
and ill be good

ok, i know i'm a little behind with my reply, but it might be helpful to some one else who might have problems with SIM RECOGNITION
once again, it is not about receiving ATT DATA PLAN, it is about your phone NOT recognizing any sim card.
i flashed my skyrocket with ODIN once click ICS, which was very easy. however my DATA plan did not work, so i installed many different modems and no luck. i tried to change different ROMs and no luck.
so i went back to stock ROM, and no luck, then i tried to flash it again with same ODIN one click ICS that i used in the beggining, and i have my phone recognizing my SIM card just fine.
however, still no data plan, i guess it would be on att settings, but not sure which one to use.

Question about return

Hey guys. I just got my replacement phone from ATT mailed in since my old one's power button broke. I have a few questions about getting it back to stock AND doing so to reset my flash counter ( its at 1 now and i dont want them to void my warranty and make me pay for it :/) As of now, i do not have a jig, but one is one the way.
first off i had planned on flashing 4.0.3 and installing triangle away. i was told that this would get rid of the yellow triangle AND reset the flash counter. Will this work?
Next, does flashing back to stock through odin/heimdall readd to the flash counter where it'd go back to 1? if so, is there a way back to stock and be unrooted without increasing the flash counter
I'm also assuming doing a master clear will not increase it, as i dont want them to send them my data.
I would really appreciate some help. Thanks in advance
UPDATE: The triangle away worked successfully and flashing via odin kept the count at 0 as i thought. My new problem is when i booted up after going back to stock, i get a bootloop at the att logo. Anyone have any alternative links to getting to a nonroot version of samsung stock?

It would be worth a try... go the the Download Repository and flash the I777UCKH7-CL503881 Stock Binaries package which contains cache.img and hidden.img. It also contains the bootloaders and param but you shouldn't have to worry too much about that. That might allow your phone to boot.

Bricked i9777, white screen, what to do?

Hello folks! I achieved root on my unlocked AT&T sgs2 using DooMLoRD's method but it didn't have CWM on it so I tried using Mobile Odin to get CWM on it. Odin didn't recognize my device and I waited for the dumping process to complete but it was taking too long and so I tried using PC Odin to flash a CWM kernel but failed. Afterwards the device started showing red blue green dots on a black background and then on a white background. I can't boot into recovery or download mode and I guess I'm bricked. Any advice or suggestions?

How did you attempt to get cwm on? The only way you will have cwm on this phone is to flash a custom kernel.

try using a JIG it would help ur phone to get into download mode if its not bricked.or remove battery for few seconds and put it back with the usb connected to ur phone and pc and try the download mode combination(VOL UP+VOL DOWN+POWER) if it goes into download mode just check with creepyncrawly or entropy's guides to restore ur device

boot looping for no reason, any help?

My SGS2 has been running AOKP for a few months now, all of a sudden today the phone keeps rebooting itself every few minutes. I have tried wiping cache, full wipe etc.... I tried installing a different kernel and also a different rom, now it's on ShoStock, but it continues to loop. Also I have flashed the newest version of CWM but everytime I reboot the phone it reverts back to the old version. Any ideas help?

Thanks guys, another issue I noticed is that the power button was acting really strangely. When you pressed it it wouldnt turn off the phone it would just bring up the restart menu or it wouldn't register at all, so I thought I had a hardware issue. Any finally I ran this kernel cleaner:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363738
did a full wipe etc...installed rom and then kernel and that has seem to do the trick. Going to hope that it continues to work and I don't have to go out and buy a new phone!
Looks like I have some donating to do.
Don't use ROM manager to flash cwm. As that is what it sounds like u did when u said u "flashed" cwm. Our kernels have recovery built in.

Yeah, that's probably incorrect.
For our phones, CWM is included in all custom kernels and isn't separate from the kernel at all. The only way to update CWM is to flash an updated custom kernel, like if Siyah or NEAK were to update for instance.
Don't bother trying to update CWM all the time, there's honestly little to no benefit from even trying and you'll likely end up with problems instead like you did this time. The version of CWM included with the custom kernels available is more than sufficient, just stick with those instead of trying to update it separately.
So I thought I fixed it but at last I haven't. After running the kernel cleaner, installing different roms/kernels the phone still boots for no reason after a while, not as often but at least 2-5 times a day. I am have no idea what's going on.

Yes it is definitely from my favorite series of books. This is one of the only forums I visit that I couldn't get just Mostly Harmless.
Doesn't really get hot, but after a while the power button stops responding and only time fixes this or a fresh install of a kernel. I formatted my SD card and the internal memory (without grabbing my pictures ) and any app I install is new from the market.

Easiest way to go back to stock (and unrooted)

Could someone point me in the right direction of how to get back to completely stock - without root?
I can only find the guide to revert to stock with root. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432 And im also confused on what would be considered "stock" now since im pretty sure what originally came in the phone has been updated.
FYI im running AOKP milestone 6, and i also have a jig if that makes any difference. (also is there a flash counter i need to worry about?)
I have a captivate, and i used to use the one click odin flash to get it completely stock, is there anything like this for this phone?
I guess my last resort would be to do what they said in the thread linked, and then figure out a way to unroot?
thanks in advance for any help.

Here is the link to the stock one click package no root DL the first one. You will need 7zip to unpack it as well.... GL

EDIT: JUST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN AT&T SGS2 MODEL #I777 AND NOT A SKYROCKET #I727
A few more notes
1. Before you flash anything make sure your battery is charged...
2. Stock now would be UCLE5 ICS don't flash that tho it has a major bug in the kernel, KK6 has issues as well KH7 would be your best bet depending on what you want to do with the phone I will link you to two other threads at the bottom.
3. As long as you're flashing a stock package you won't trip the flash counter...
4. If you flash the stock no root KH7 package and it wont boot after, boot in to 3e recovery and wipe data/factory reset. If it does boot then boot back in to 3e and wipe data/factory reset to reduce any chance of FC's and issues...

EDIT: JUST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN AT&T SGS2 MODEL #I777 AND NOT A SKYROCKET #I727
A few more notes
1. Before you flash anything make sure your battery is charged...
2. Stock now would be UCLE5 ICS don't flash that tho it has a major bug in the kernel, KK6 has issues as well KH7 would be your best bet depending on what you want to do with the phone I will link you to two other threads at the bottom.
3. As long as you're flashing a stock package you won't trip the flash counter...
4. If you flash the stock no root KH7 package and it wont boot after, boot in to 3e recovery and wipe data/factory reset. If it does boot then boot back in to 3e and wipe data/factory reset to reduce any chance of FC's and issues...

im in a "rethink possible" bootloop. Any suggestions?
just went through the process again, still stuck at "re-think possible"
used my jig to get into DL mode and flashed from there.
and to answer a probable future question: yes i have an ATT i777
I was running AOKP milestone 6 before trying to flash this.

maybe im getting it confused with my captivate then, but whichever was the most recent version of AOKP as of a few weeks ago.
I didnt do any type of reset, i thought this would just wipe everything anyway.

It doesn't seem to do that very well, boot into recovery and do a wipe. Assuming you're not on ICS that is.

If it does boot then boot back in to 3e and wipe data/factory reset to reduce any chance of FC's and issues..." I'm happy to see you got some help here........
