Hi Guys, I had previously been using resurrection remix rom for a few months, worked fine...
I wanted to go back to stock so i downloaded the latest stock vodafine firmwirm from sammobile:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9100T&pcode=VAU&os=1&type=1#firmware
EVENTS: I cleared cache and davlik cache and tried doing the process through clockwork recovery, which obviously failed because I forgot that you needed to get into recovery.
So I turned off my phone, loaded the resurrection rom and went back to that.
The next day I reread the procedures and did it properly via recovery through odin, I have tried this with 2 different firmwares and they both finished with a pass but get stuck at the same point.
PROBLEM: It doesn't get past the glowing S logo.. with either firmware, branded or unbranded.
Please helppp!!!!
Bump!
updated, could someone please help
You may have to wipe data/factory reset when downgrading from JB to ICS. Did you do that?

No i didn't do that. how would I have done that via download mode?
Oh my bad...didnt read the OP properly...
maybe ask in the RC thread if not sorted yet...

can anyone help?
Boot into recovery, wipe/factory reset ? If you can't manage that Bootloop thread.
Hint - Thread titles like 'Help !' tend to get you the exact opposite of what you're looking for.
Extra hint - That you didn't know how to do a factory reset suggests to me you should read the Guides and learn basics before you end up adding your phone to the Great Wall of XDA.
Hint 3 - Do not bump a thread after 21 minutes ever again. If I catching you doing so, I will make it my life's work to have you thrown off here permanently. People here have lives. There's not 478 people sitting around doing nothing just waiting to answer questions from people who didn't RTFM within 5 minutes of them posting a question :-/ What people like you need to understand is, many people who used to answer questions here have either sold their S2's & moved on (or moved on for various other reasons *cough*). There is simply not the same number of people around to help bozos who get in over their heads.

Ok, first of all I am NEW to all of this. I have read and read and read for the past month, and finally got the urge to fix my phone myself. It is a att gs2 i777. The guy I got it off of had it flashed to a i9100 for some reason, and of course the 2 buttons and mic did not work. I followed these instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432 to return the phone to factory settings. I flashed the
The kernel + rooted UCKH7 system package first and had trouble with google framework errors not letting me set the phone up. So then I flashed the Kernel + cache + rooted UCKK6 system package and viola! The phone set up just fine, all buttons work and voice on my calls work!
My main question is why does during the boot up screen or in the odin download screen it still shows the phone as a i9100? Or should I not worry about it? Also now that the phone is back to factory it will not go into recovery mode. I would like for it to have the latest update, but not sure what my next step would be.
I was going to try myself so I read that I need to flash the SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.0.2.3 into Odin..I tried and it did not pass. I am using Odin3 v1.7 by the way.
I appologize if these are stupid questions, I am just trying to learn and felt like I have tried everything that I have read. Thanks for all of the help guys!

Read the stickies. They will explain all of that. Except maybe the i9100 thing. That means someone flashed custom firmware on it through Odin. Also, only stay on this site or you wont get any help

Buddy I have read the stickies.....I would not be asking these questions if I had not read and tried a few things first. Maybe I have read over what I needed to and didn't know it, because like I said I am NEW to all of this. I feel the time I have spent reading and researching this "new language" that I have began to somewhat understand more than I thought I ever would. Like I said I have read and read and read for the past month, I think I deserve to ask a few questions that I need help with. I'm not sure what you are referring to when you say "only stay on this site or you wont get any help". This is the only site that I have been reading from, with anything that I needed to know. I tried to join androidforums a while back and it was full of rude people who treated anyone that was trying to learn anything like complete idiots. You have to ask some questions sometimes in order to learn. Thanks for your help on the i9100 issue, under About Phone it has now changed to i777, but I think in a couple of places it still thinks its a i9100. Atleast it is working now, I am better off than when I started I guess.

Follow the guide to flashing custom binaries without incrementing flash counter
Sent from my GS4 running CM11 Kandy Kane
Hey I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy S II I9100, at first everything was fine, but i had some trouble installing apps so i used es file manager to install them, it began to work for some apps. anyway, this morning I woke and turned it on and it didn't get past the bootscreen(i left it for about 45 minutes on one occasion, and I tried rebooting many times.
The first thing i did after attempting to boot my device was to flash the kernel again via odin, this did not work(tried twice).
so i did a lot of research over the past 10 hours into my problem and have tried many different things; installing a stock rom, removing battery, pretty much anything on the forums that people said have worked. nothing.
I can get into recovery mode and download mode.
I don't care about my data on my phone, it has already been wiped.
It's still covered by warranty so i can wipe the flash count(?) and send it in for warranty IF I HAVE TO. preferably not however.
although i highly doubt it, I may have been using the wrong rom, and I may have forgotten to reset my phone before one of the re-flash's
So if you havn't figured out my question by now, how do i return my phone to working condition?
Don't get mad at me for making a thread that has probably been made a hundred times, none of the solutions in the other threads fixed my problems, and I was browsing not only xda but other forums for hours, I found that reason enough to post a new thread. Apologies if this is in the wrong section, I am new here, and never found it necessary to create an account until now, when I couldn't find a solution.
Help is appreciated, this problem is really rustling my Jimmies on Christmas day.
because this is such a problem, I will REWARD anyone who presents a working solution that does not involve sending it off for warranty or buying a jig. Sorry if i missed out some information, please request for missing info in a response.
1.forget about warranty and jig....that has nothing to do with your current situation.
2.post the details about your phone and what firmware your on and what crap you were flashing.
Maybe a simple reset/wipe in stock recovery is needed.

originally i was on ics 4.0.3, and i used this tutorial galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s2-i9100-icsandroid-4-0/ (can't post url link because im a new user) and this kernel by the file name "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-v5.3-CWM5.tar". I then searched for stock roms for it and got "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KP8-v5.2-CWM5.tar" and "CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5.tar"
If you want a stock rom go to Sammobile,join(so you can download).....then input smartphone>android>your phone model>your country/carrier.
Choose whatever 4.0.3 it recommends after you input the above and hit send.
Then flash that with Odin and see what happens.
Then report back here.
I am from Australia and when I searched for roms for the I9100, no Australian roms showed :s
would one from another country work, or would that be locked or...?
Theres 3 listed for starters for the plain gt-i9100.....is that your exact model....or is it p/g/m etc.
This is why I asked for your model.
gt-i9100 is my model that's all it said in my phone information in the settings (before it stuffed up), manual, on start up and in download mode.
sorry, I'm not excellent with my technical android terminology.
false alarm, it just didn't load properly before, I will start a the download (will take like 15 minutes) and report back when i flash it. gt-i9100 is definitely my model.
You just input which one of these 3 applies,hit send,then download.
Then flash it (the extracted file)in download mode with Odin.
so i put the extracted file in the 'PDA' field, put it into download mode, plug it in and start the process?
Yep.
It failed the first 2 tries, I think I have a bad usb cord, but worked the third, might of been what stuffed it up in the first place maybe (?), thank you so much for your help man
Good.Wait til boxing day til you flash siyah-s2.v.4.1.5 kernel for root.......lol.
hehe... yeah... I'm not going to try root again... lol

Going back to your first post,maybe you could make a donation to one of the developers on this site of your choosing.
sounds good, which developer in particular would be a good choice?
I quite like Doomlord,but its up to you
And just post back on this thread if you need help rooting etc.
Ok so I've been unhappy with the 4.0.4 official ATT update and its caused my phone once or twice a day to shut off and I have to pull the battery out. So I got the bright idea to root it. I'm not a stranger to this I had the captivate and infuse before this phone. I had roms on those with no issues. Now I followed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746181 and the phone crashes on bootup saying google account manager has stopped and wont even let me get past it. Then I tried another kernal SGH-I777-ATTGalaxyS2RootStockZedomaxKernel.tar and that just has a yellow ! up and never even gets any further
I've spent 7 hours now in a row reading posts, to be frank, the attitude here SUCKS. Instead of people answering the question they point you off to some post you already read 10 times before, already tried and it doesnt work. I've also tried just putting it back to factory with I777UCKH7-CL503881-No-BL.exe and that doesnt work either
Put your phone in download mode. (power it off, hold down the volume down button and insert the usb cable)
Flash this with Odin in the PDA slot, auto reboot the only thing checked:
http://d-h.st/UWm
So I'm assuming seven hours is a lot for you? I've been reading here for over a year and I'm still learning. Really to root all you would have had to do is flash a kernel in .tar format with Odin (our kernels come with cwm built in remember) obviously you would want one that's compatible with the version of android you're using. There is a lot of information here. But to say the " attitude here sucks" like you did..... Yer wrong. I know sometimes it seems harsh, but we're just trying to get people to do things for themselves and thus learn even more, positively influencing them in the end.
I think I see your problem. Perhaps if you drop the entitlement attitude you might get more help. No one here is obligated to help anyone. The people that do are unpaid volunteers willing to share their expertise. This is NOT the Help Desk. Remember that before you consider making another ungrateful post like this one.
XDA-dev's are free volunteers, first of all.
We are here for the last someyears and we had providing the best help for anyone related to the phones, eventough devs always repeat that dont mirror us, many people do mirror thier works and someone claims tgat they had done it and yet this site is considered as the best resources for android fanboys.
The another thing is that we are professionals who spare our minute free time for the betterment of phones and to.unlock the hidden capabilities of phone.
I could say to you that have patience and patience never makea you sad.....
BE GOOD

Use the return to stock guide to go back to stock GB. Never go to another site other than ours as the other sites have ad kernels which break wifi or brick phones. Once you flash the GB stock go into 3e recovery and wipe by holding power and both volume buttons. Use the volume keys to move up and down and power to select. If power doesnt work then use home. Once you boot up you can set up or whatever. Next follow the Flash Custom Firmware Without Incrementing Flash Counter. Make sure to use a GB kernel in Mobile Odin. Now you can flash custom roms using CWM if you did it right. If you flash an ICS rom you can use Triangle Away to remove that triangle at boot up. You can also use a jig which is safer and able to be used on any version.

I managed to get Serendipity 9.4 loaded on it and its seeming to work however I dont seem to be able to get anything else to not boot loop or fail
I'd be happy with a rooted ICS, dont really need all the fancy stuff but when I try to use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746181 I cannot get it to load stable, I get bootloops, non stop force closes.
I did seem to fix the power button issue, took it apart and swapped the button with a damaged i777 I had laying around here and thats working now, so really I just need the stock ICS on it and thats the extent of any tinkering I ever want to do with this phone again.
I picked up a Optimus G today as a replacement, god I hate it, the music sounds like garbage and the camera is worse. Theres about zero cases made for it. I have 13 days now to return it so I'm hoping I can resurrect my GS2.
It says to If flashing this from another base, you should perform a wipe data/factory reset before you flash this package, should I flash the package first? Seems like after that I only have 3E recovery instead of clockwork mod, which I need to flash the kernal, or should I do the kernal first? These things are not really detailed

If you wish to be on stock ICS go ahead and reboot into recovery and factory reset. Next turn off the phone and remove the battery. Plug in the usb to the phone while it's connected to your computer while holding both volume buttons. You should be in download mode now once you press the correct volume button. Now you can use Odin/Heimdall to flash Stock ICS. Note this does contain the EMMC Superbrick bug which is why you factory reset prior to flashing it. If you want a custom rom PM and I can tell you

Seems like your answer is in there already. Kernels can be flashed after with Odin. Use a kernel with CWM if you want that.
First of all, I am not new to flashing, rooting and etc. I have helped many of my friends with custom roms and etc so flashing and Odin is not something I know nothing about.
However, I was asked by my friend that his S2 was running slow and wanted me to put a custom rom on there. So I did the usual thing of using the ZergRush method to give him root access and I tested Superuser with Root Checker and everything was fine. So I went to install a custom recovery (Phil's CWM) via Odin and using the latest tar file from Phil's website but this is where things didn't go according to plan.
When I hit the Start button in Odin, it did the normal thing of writing to the NAND but instead of taking the usual 8-10 seconds, it took a lot longer. I actually waited 20 minutes and nothing was happening. There was no indication on the S2 that anything was happening and Odin was still stuck on the NAND Writing with all the buttone grayed out. So I waited a bit longer and after 30 min I decided to close Odin and try again, but when I try to get into Download Mode, I got the message 'Software Update Fail'. I tried to flash the custom recovery again but when it gets to the NAND Write, it instantly goes to 'Fail'.
Out of the 8 Samsung phones I have rooted and put a custom rom on, this is the first time this has happened. I searched the forum but most of it point to a bricked phone. I know at this point is is pretty critical that I do not try any random thing and asking you guys for any advice. I have tried flashing with a different version of Odin and also on different computers but gave me the same result. So any help would be much appriciated.
Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' guide; search for it. You need to try everything in that thread over & over & over, only way you're fixing it is if you get a successful Odin flash away. In particular flashing the 3 part firmware might fix it.
Given the alternative - motherboard replacement or new phone - keep trying stuff, these cases are sometimes fixed by persevering (for whatever reason the first 8 stock rom flashes you try don't work but the 9th does, etc)
Thanks for the information MistahBungle, I have tried most of what has been said but I have not tried the leaked rom for the i9100. I will definately give this a shot.
No worries The rationale with flashing the 3 part is it will wipe the phone & hopefully remove any 'remnants' of what was previously on the phone which might be causing issues. If that doesn't work, download a bunch of stock roms from Samfirmware (carrier/country doesn't matter, just make sure you DL I9100 firmwares) & start flashing, this sometimes solves problems like this as I mentioned in my PP. Good luck.

Just giving you an update. The 3 part leaked rom did the trick! I been flashing for a few years now but never ever had Odin go wrong so this is a new experience for me. I really appricate your help with this, was so worried I stuffed up a friends phone.
Good news then No worries, glad you got it sorted (& you've still got a friend ). Yeah, that's a handy trick the 3 part, it's bailed a few people out. Don't forget to thank Hopper's OP in his thread.

Thanks for keeping on referring my thread, the more people it can help the better I'm working 6 days a week for now so haven't much time to go on Q&A and help out. Also thanks for before, I think you know what I'm referring to. Much appreciated. :good:
I found myself in the wrong forum trying to install the wrong stuff yesterday. I found a thread for custom fingerprint scanner icons on the sgs5. I followed the directions to install the one I liked to the T. Including making a backup of the original file. Unfortunately, it wasn't the G900T. I rebooted, and got a VERY persistent "com.android.systemui has stopped" message, and couldn't do anything. So I booted to the factory recovery, and performed a Factory Reset.
Long story short....... The Factory Reset deleted the original Keyguard.apk, and I need a new one. Could someone please upload it for me, so I don't have to Odin the whole Firmware?
I've read, and learned a lot here at XDA, but this is my first call for HELP!!!!!!
EDIT: I forgot to mention. The phone is rooted, but still using Stock Rom. The file is located in root\system\priv-app.
My new phone is rendered useless until this issue is resolved.
Mod. Please delete thread
To anyone that looked at this thread, and at least thought about maybe helping out. Thanks. Decided to just flash TWRP recovery, and Custom Rom. All is well now.
You really didn't need to flash a rom for it.
You could have just downloaded one of the stock roms and copy that one file out that you needed.
Glad you found a resolution.
Seeking help here usually invokes a need for a certain amount of patience.. after all, not everyone can read every post in every sub forum every day. It can take a few days to fill a random request even on a busy site like XDA.
Don't ask me how long requests need to season for niche topics on smaller forums..

Yes. I agree. I thought I'd keep the stock ROM on this one, and just modify a few things on it. But since I needed to flash a ROM anyway, I just decided to go with a custom one again.
