Try the instructions in this post.
hey... thanks for telling but... i am really finding it a little tough to follow the instructions... i connected my phone to my laptop downloaded the files... but hw do i get started with it... can you please help me out.. i tried opening odin... it doesnt open... how do i open it? and how do i connect my phone with the software?
Assuming your laptop runs Windows...
Refer back to this post again, and...
For 1. follow the instructions in step 2a) of this guide, except use this file: I777UCKH7-CL503881 FULL Odin3 One-click Downloader (See Download Repository, link in sig) which contains the bootloaders and param.lfs.
For 2. and 3. since the phone will be in a boot loop, you need to install the kernel with Odin3 v1.85. Download the kernel from this Media Fire link. Then follow the steps in this post, except use the kernel you just downloaded instead of the stock kernel.
Follow 4. and 5. then for 6. download the tar version of Siyah kernel, and use the same proceedure as immediately above to flash it.
I got it Miten.....
May be i can do it... Hope for the best.......
i did the odin part... and after it shows me pass... i still cannot enter the recovery mode... it is showing me this...
"E:failed to mount /cache (unknown error: 0)
E: can't mount /cache/recovery/command"
what do i do now?? :crying:
"i did the odin part... "
What have you flashed with Odin. If you flashed the I777UCKH7-CL503881-Full package, then you are where you are expected to be. If this is this all you have flashed to this point, then you should still have a boot loop or error messages.
Next flash the SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3 kernel tar using Odin. Following this flash, you should be able to enter recovery and perform a wipe data/factory reset.
The thrid step is to flash the Siyah kernel using Odin. Use the link in 6. of that guide and download the tar version.
i could enter the recovery mode... i did factory reset... but it is still rebooting and showing me
"Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100" with an exclamation mark.. what do i do

After it shows the GT-I9100 boot screen and yellow triangle with exclamation mark, does it boot on in to the operating system?
The GT-I9100 boot screen and yellow triangle with exclamation mark is present because you flashed a custom kernel with Odin. This can be cleared later, but first you need to be able to boot the phone all the way up.

no... it is not rebooting... sigh
It's possible the phone has some type of hardware failure, I suppose.
Can you still get into download mode?
Can you tell me what you have flashed successfully through Odin and in what order you flashed them, if more than one thing?

There was never anything said about using a pit.
That pit is for the GT-I9100, not the I777.
I seriously doubt that the partition sizes for the I9100 are the same as the I777.
I hope you havn't completely screwed up your phone.
There is a pit for the I777 in the Download Repository, see the link in my signature.
I'm not giving you any more advice. You're on your own.

I think what creepy is saying here is:
FOLLOW THE DAMN INSTRUCTIONS LAID OUT TO YOU EXACTLY AS THEY WERE WRITTEN!
I read the instructions and don't see how you could have decided to do anything with pit files like you have. Do you go to the doctor and when he tells you to take 2 hydrocodones per day do you then take 3 plus a couple Aleve chased vodka? NO! You take the medicine as prescribed and let it ride.
Come back after following the instructions EXACTLY as written and maybe you might receive more support if your problem is not solved.
Good luck.

They should be getting paid for their time and effort but the thing is, they ENJOY helping others discover the possibilities that can be unlocked with our phones.

Success! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
This worked perfectly for me today. I was able to get past the boot loop and the Deleting Cryption message and then flash back to stock with the I777UCKH7-CL503881-Full.exe. Just what I wanted and needed.

Hello
I accidently deleted a file from System/Firmware called "android.policy.jar" (Its a long story so please dont ask how, i am too worried).
Now my phone does not start. Heres the condition->
If i start it normally, the phone is stuck at bootanimation.
If I try to start in recovery (By holding Volume Up+Home+Power), it keeps displaying the splash screen (where its written "Galaxy SIII GT-I9300")
and does not go in recovery.
But I am able to start it in download mode.
I also have a clockwork backup so if it can somehow made to boot in recover, i can restore stuff.
I am using android 4.1.2 (ROM-> Droid SIII)
I can try with odin but I have linux installed and downloading windows over my slow internet can take upto 4 days!
Is there anyway to use odin or alternative in linux (Bcos using WINE can cause driver problems).
Please help.

Hey, I'll explain you what I did ;
After I rooted my device, I booted the device and it worked. After that, I installed CWM, tried to turn on the device and it doesnt work! stuck on boot animation..
Soo...I downloaded SiyahKernel which is the most basic and for major users kernel. You can download it here :
http://www.gokhanmoral.com/?cat=5
You install ODIN on your PC, open it, and click on PDA and open the kernel you downloaded(siyah kernel), you put your device on Download Mode (you press volume down, home, and power button. you will see the download mode screen, it will ask you to press volume up or volume down, PRESS THE VOLUME UP! THIS IS THE ONLY WAY ODIN WILL FIND YOUR DEVICE!). And than on Odin you press start. Hope it helped

Try this let me know what happens
Step 1
1. Flash with ODIN v3.07(Stock Rom Any region) use admin mode for running odin
2. only(PDA , CSC , Modem along with PIT file)
Now if everythinf works fine & download mode is working follow step 2 ( phone will still bootloop don't worry about it but be sure to check if recovery or anything else works after this )
Step 2 :
1. again Flash with ODIN v3.07(Same stock
Firmware used in step 1)
2. now only(Bootloader , CSC , Modem ,PDA) No
PIT File(Important)
Use this pit file dl.xda-developers.com/attachdl/f218...5a8f7a/51ee1c11/1/8/0/4/9/6/1/totoro_0623.rar not official samsung that you got with stock firmware
This should work if not let me know

I downloaded the official firmware from sammobile.com and when I try to flash through Odin it says write failed!
(I don't know if this is happening because of the usb debugging is not checked in the phone)
I used same Odin which I used to flash my grand with!
Actually the problem started after flashing a Rom from cwm recovery
I wiped the cache and factory reset my device in cwm! And install zip from sd and it installed as usual!
But it got stuck at the start screen.
I get the device name and model only on start screen, and nothing after that!
Now after pressing vol up+power+home no android recovery comes or no cwm recovery comes!!!
Phone is still in 0 binary and Samsung official!!
My only problem is if I hold recovery keys it just reboots again n again!
If I hold download mode keys it boots into download mode but Odin refuses to write the stock Rom
.
Thanks in advance
I am in need of ur help.

Hello.
This is urgent. I need this phone to work as soon as possible
I'm new to the modding scene, and I have decided to install 5.1.1 Lollipop on my Samsung SII GT-i9100.
I tried to download this ROM off this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/rom-cyanogenmod-12-t2955551
It says I need :"Kitkat Compatible Recovery". I suspect this was the problem as I had Jellybean 4.1.2, not any KitKat version but I was attempting to install Lollipop 5.1.1 (if any of this makes any sense at all).
This is the page that I found after googling "KitKat Compatible Recovery": http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/install-an...ible-cwm-recovery-galaxy-s2-i9100-how-1434170
The page says to flash "GT-I9100_JB_ClockworkMod-Recovery_6.0.2.9.tar" onto my gt-i9100 using Odin, which is what I did.
When the flash was completed and I saw the "PASS" message in Odin, the page said the phone should reboot automatically. This did not happen. When I tried booting manually, I was shown "Samsung Gallaxy SII GT-I9100" with a yellow triangle and exclamation mark underneath. Then the boot sound played but the screen stayed black. After this the phone screen stayed black and did not boot.
I did some searching on how to remove said triangle, but in all the examples I have found the phone booted. Mine didn't.
All I'm asking is if someone knows how to fix my phone back to normal, or a redirect to a link where this issue is already addressed.
Thanks for your help.
P.S. Recovery and Download are accessible normally

When you boot into recovery which version do you have? If it is the 6.0.2.9 CWM, then flash the CWM 6.0.4.5 mentioned (from recovery) then reboot back into recovery(not system). You should now have CWM 6.0.4.5. Now from this recovery, do a full wipe(factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache(from advanced in menu) and format system. Then flash the rom and gapps(if you want them). Then reboot to system.
If you have the stock 3e recovery, you need to enable root access. Let us know if this is the case
I have CM v5.8.1.8, but I flashed 6.0.2.9.
That's weird
Don't worry about the triangle for now, just goto recovery flash a lollipop rom with gapps, after you are in the rom just use the triangle away app and remove it (I have done this loads of times) but be sure you have the correct KitKat recovery or this might not work.

Could you explain how to flash it? It's a .zip file not .tar.
If you mean that I should put the .zip in the root of my phone, I can't do that as I when I plug in my phone to my PC I can't access root. (I suspect this is because my phone is not booted and I can't get it to boot)

I know this much, but the problem is that I don't have a ROM on my phone, and I can't access root so I can't place it there. I see an option called "sideload" in the recovery menu, but I don't know what this means and how I could use it.
I have flashed the .tar file you attached. Now I can't access recovery mode.
Okay I've managed to enter recovery by removing the battery and going into download, pressing down-volume to boot and then entering recovery normally. Now what.
I can now enter recovery. What do i do now

GUYS I got it to work. I flashed the two files from the description of this video, and used cm-kernel-09-05-2015-TWRP-2.8.6.0 to flash both of these files. It took some firguring out, but I got there in the end. The ROM is Lollipop 5.1.1 with CyanogenMod version 12.1-20150504-UNOFFICIAL-i9100.
Thanks for all the help you guys supplied, I couldn't have done this without you.
Now enjoy lollipop
