hello, yesterday i have flashed a wrong firmware. i took the firmware from i9100.
my phone is i9100g. now i want to flash another firmware with odin but i can not get into download mode.
i take off the battery, put in again, press volume down + home + power button.
nothing happens. yesterday i could get into dlm, but today nothing happens.
i can start the phone. if i turn on the phone, i see the exclamation mark as here: http://cdn-static.cnet.co.uk/i/c/blg/cat/mobiles/rootingsgs2/rootingsgs5.jpg
how can i unbrick my phone an flash the original i9100g firmware ?
Are you sure there isn't any timing problems for the three button combo? Take out battery, reinsert. Press home, volume down and power simultaneously. Then volume up to continue. If it can go to the samsung logo, it definitely should be able to go into download mode.
Or, try a USB jig (its cheap and worth it, or you can make it by following plenty of tutorials here). It forces the phone into download mode.
Alternatively, if you have ADB set up and had USB debugging enabled on your phone, you could reboot into download mode by using adb reboot-download.

If you have screwed your device I have absolutely no sympathy for you. Maybe you will learn to read/research properley before flashing in future.
If you cant go into download mode try booting into recovery mode and restoring backup or flashing zip.
errr....i think he did get to download mode....he just didnt know what to do with it. NOW he's up for a solid XDA-READING night.
hell man, push those buttons like theres no tomorrow until u get to DLM!
from sii xda-ded
* take battery out of phone
* launch Odin
* locate ROM you would like to flash
* plug ph into pc/laptop (nb, battery still out of ph)
* holding button combo for d/l mode insert battery (extra helper maybe needed)
* 'if' ph gets into d/l mode, flash ROM
NB, this saved my S2 from BSOD

just out of curiosity how did you fix issue
[King_Rat raises right hand] :laugh:
king_rat, i have charged the battery. then i could get into dlm. i believe you need at least 10% battery for flashing

Phone charged up overnight, and after half an hour of listening to music, I noticed the battery had fallen to around 30%. I then rebooted the phone, but it did not boot up. Cannot seem to enter any recovery/download mode.
Rooted running the Omega ROM. Haven't done any modifications to it for a good couple of weeks. Any chance of salvation?
maybe the battery gone bad? did u try with other battery?
Maybe, but I forgot to mention i somehow entered emergency recovery mode earlier (once) which would suggest its not? How do you enter that mode?
i've heard of that emergency recovery mode, but never actually seen it or know exactly howto trigger it. try vol up+vol down+home+power
Thanks that worked.
Now in 'emergency dload mode (arm9 mode)'
Where do I go from here?
so hows that recovery looks like? got any menu selection like normal recovery such as wipe data etc? if got, try to wipe data.
Nope not like a recovery mode. All it is is the Samsung logo with the 'emergency dload mode' text...
frankly we all here doesnt know exactly what the purpose of that emergency recovery mode.
try to connect your phone with odin and see its detected. maybe u can flash stock rom from it.
if it doesnt work either, u can try to force the device into normal download mode and flash with odin. first take off the battery, wait for around 5 seconds, hold the three button combination for download mode and while u still hold those three buttons, reinsert the battery. it should go into download mode and u can flash stock rom via odin.
Thanks for help. Will give it a go, and let you know the results....
If it treat it like a normal download mode, am I right in thinking I just follow the normal procedure for flashing via ODIN?
Ie, follow this tutorial: http://acetips.wordpress.com/2011/09/28/upgrade-ace-odin/

Thanks for everyones help.
Managed to get it to the 'downloading' text, where I eventually managed to flash a stock ROM via ODIN, so I'm now unrooted.
Problem still remains where it won't boot up without being plugged into a power source, so taking it back tomorrow. I believe the battery somehow died and may have taken something else down with it...
Hi, I have a samsung galaxy s2 that I bought off kijiji. It is white and was originally from bell. I unlocked it and the phone worked great for 2 weeks I could charge it pull the battery out and put my koodo sim card and it worked. One night I went to sleep and woke up and it was dead. So I went to go charge it and it didn't charge or want to turn on... So I went to go buy a new battery that was already fully charged and I put it in the phone and it worked, it turned on and everything worked. Then it died again as I was at school and it wont charge or turn on again! So I gave both batterys to a friend who has the same phone to charge and then I tryed it in my phone again and it wont turn on. I made a youtube video of my problem so this my explain it a little better also. Here is my video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=184adlrU9eQ&list=UUGtRGDv9GcPPEZS3_oLB8UQ&index=1&feature=plcp

Can you get to download mode? Hold volume down home and power on button. If you can go to www.sammobile.com and download a stock firmware and flash through Odin

Do you know if the phone is still on the guarantee? It most-likely is so you should bring it to Samsung ASAP and they will probably give you a refurbished one. The only problem is if you used a code to unlock the device, you'll pretty much lose it. Don't bring it to Bell, they won't give a damn because they're not your provider.

Bottom line is, if you haven't rooted the phone or run non-stock firmware on it, don't risk doing that now to try and fix it. If it borks, you'll end up voiding your warranty.
Send it into Samsung/an authorised repairer & have it repaired under warranty is my advice (contact Samsung in your country to get details of repairer).
Now, if you have rooted the phone/run non-stock firmware on it, and you can get into download mode then you can still fix it. If you can't get into download mode tho, there's no chance of you fixing it so don't even attempt to. Send it to a service centre & hope they don't notice you've been messing with it.
I cannot get into download mode.
No download mode, no recovery & phone won't boot = service centre/Samsung authorised repairer & hope they can't tell you used a bit of dodgy software to try & unlock the phone & borked it in the process.
I guess you could try a jig & see if that gets you into download mode as well.
This problem just happened to me... I did the soft reset mentioned in other forums and did not work... so I took the battery, sim card, and SD card out and put the battery cover back on, left alone for 1hour... tried soft reset again and worked.
Soft reset: Battery out, press ON button for 10 secs, put battery back on, turn on.
As I said yesterday I had problems turning on the phone and managed to turn it on by performing a soft reset... now the problem is that I usually turn it off every night and this morning it happened again, the phone won't turn on... did the same soft reset and there it went again but I am now scared of turning it off and never be able to turn it on again... Can someone suggest what the problem may be? would be a hardware problem? Or should it be a ROM/Kernel/Recovery problem?
Its hardware. I had this issue and it killed two batteries (mine drains battery and kills it, single use battery...) gave to Samsung and was fixed with motherboard and LCD change.
My Gf's Galaxy 2 wont torn on just keeps vibrating. Does like it going to turn on but it inmediately shut itself off. Please i need a solution!!
Sounds like a battery problem... get a new battery

I have had same issue. I got a new battery and it still buzzes, doesn't charge and doesn't boot. It is probably a hardware problem.
i hope help
This happened to my phone and it really is a simple fix. First take the battery out of the phone for about 10 seconds. Then with the battery out plug the phone up, wait a few seconds, and put the battery in and immediately press power. Should be as good as new.
OR just plug in the phone when it's off and then power off

Same problem after having the phone on the shelf for a while
I guys..
Samsung Galaxy Sii GT9100-P
Not Rooted
Unlocked by using an unlock code (when adding an unrecognised sim) Was on Orange, unlocked it with a Voda sim in it.
upgraded the firmwareusing Samsung Kies last June.
then I got an S3 and put this on the shelf.
I have 3 Batteries for the S2 and charged them all with my desktop battery charger.
the phone will not power on if:-
Battery Out and on Cable with PC
Battery In connected to PC or Mains
Will not go into download mode
any battery charged and no cable.
I shelved this perfectly working and kept is as a "spare" phone.
now the time has come to use it.
anyone any ideas?
I know it is out of warranty, so I guess a chargeable fix will be required!
but I cant beleive a fully working S2 would due after being left on a shelf!
Thanks in Advance Guys!
Oh..
PC has been rebuilt since the Samsung Kies update, so I dont have the emergency or backup files to work with.
Cheers,
I was using this topic to try to fix my phone from an earlier issue
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1286432
I accidentally flashed a CM9 from the i19100 instead of the i777, and when I tried to flash the Siyeah kernal, the phone stopped working. I used the topic I mentioned above and tried to use Odin to flash back to fix it, and now the phone just loops in the AT&T logo if it's not plugged in to the USB, and just flashes the batter icon at me if it is plugged while I try to enter download mode.
I cannot find a solution for this. I tried the Vol Up+Down+Power, which didn't work, and since I can't get it to turn on, nothing else will work. I have no idea how to proceed.
EDIT: Fixed by getting into download mode by holding Vol Down + Power, instead of the three button trick. Might come in handy for others. I had the boot loop on the AT&T splash screen that seems to require a jig most of the time.

Cant enter download mode while USB is plugged in.
try Vol up, Vol down. Insert USB.
And if that works, next time, try searching more.
Flashing a CM9 from i9100 will not brick your phone, hell it should boot still. but get d/l mode and back to a i777 kernal, then recovery, and flash ROM. i777 ROM

It booted, but was giving me a Status 7 error when I tried to flash a nightly (because I didn't realize I had flashed a i9100 rom at the time, figured that out after some searching) so I decided to just use Odin to flash back stock.
And, no luck on the Vol Up+Down then plugging in. Tried with battery and without. With batter, just shows the charged batter screen like it did before. Without battery it just flashes the grey battery icon over and over.
I had a similar issue. to get to download mode use Vol up+down+power with the USB cable plugged in. make sure you hold them down until the download mode appears.

Been trying that for hours. Definitely not getting to download mode that way.
Odin still recognizes my phone when I turn it on. If I unplug it, turn it on, then plug it back in, Odin will recognize the phone, though I can't actually enter download mode.

Do you have recovery? do a factory reset inside recovery?
But you got bigger problem if you cant get into download mode. you sure your doing it right? sorry have to ask.
Vol up Vol down, hold both those while inserting USB, hold untill screen pops up.
Or a Jig.
No, no recovery. Splash screen and batter screen. Those are the only things I get to see.
I looked at the jig, but I don't have the supplies to make it off hand (no soldering iron), and no one I could find seemed to have as many problems with this as I was. Most of them just couldn't get into download mode and weren't having looping issues.

Yeah, I guess there's no other solutions. I thought maybe there was just something I couldn't find. I ordered a jig from amazon with overnight shipping. Hopefully it will work.
Try the following;
USB cable plugged into phone and motherboard battery out. Hold volume +/-. Insert battery. Continue holding volume +/- until you either get the battery charging animation or download mode.
If that doesn't get you download mode nothing short of a jig or jtag will..
Goodluck!

Yeah, I reflashed stock + root, then flashed a kernal with CWM, then flashed CM9, then Siyah. Now I'm back to where I was, finally.
It turned out that in the beginning, when I was having the bad boot loop problem, I could get into download mode by holding Vol Down + Power, which wasn't mentioned anywhere that I could find. I just did it for kicks while the internet wasn't work and while I was turning my phone on and off.
Anywho, after much work and me learning to use Heimdall, the phone is working. Thanks for all the suggestions everyone!
Hello, so i have a international S3 and have flashed ROMS since I got it. I am running Omega JB V28 with Syiah Kernel 1.7rc. All is fine for over a week. Just right now my phone froze and did not want to wake up, So I held down volume up, menu button, and power button to restart my phone. I accidentally let go too early before I saw the Galaxy s3 logo and now, I cannot start my phone??? I cant even go into recovery mode.... Any suggestions on how to get this to work??? thanks!
Try this:
Take battery out for 5 minutes and place it back in. Then do the required combination to get into recovery. If not try download mode...
If that fails... put the phone on charge and hopefully the battery will show up showing its charging. If not I can give no more advice.
Hope this helped.

Tried all of the above, took battery out, recovery didnt work. Battery out agin and download mode didnt work. Pluged phone in charge and not battery images. Tried recovery and download mode while phone plugged in charger and still nothing happens. It is weird cus I didnt prick my phone or anything, it was fine for a week. Just tried to restart it and let go to early and no this happens :/
As warranty is void you are best to source a USB recovery jig to access download mode before anything else .

You certainly pricked your S3 by at most flashing a non compatible rom for ur S3 (international) or u just messed up with something during installation,head to samsung customer care.

my phone has been rooted and flashed Omega ROM since may. The phone was working fine for 2 weeks after flashing the new Omega JB Rom v28 and it just shuts off and not power up now. I heard of people installing wrong ROMS or wrong versions of it then bricking their phons, but my phone was flashed the correct ROMS and was in a working state for 2 weeks since my last flashed ROM, never heard of a phone bricking out of now where after u've just used it... I am stopped and dont know how it happened :/ i ordered a jig and thought that might be my only way out. Anyone know if you can restart ur phone from download mode?

I may be ,isunderstanding what you are asking here but are you asking how to get your device in to download mode by using a button combo like getting in to recovery mode if so:
ODIN/Download Mode
Make sure your device is completely off
Key Combos: Volume Down + Home
While holding both of them simultaneously press the Power button until the green robot is visible on the screen indicating that handset is in Download mode.
Then press Volume Up to accept the disclaimer
Recovery Mode
Make sure your device is completely off
Key Combos: Volume Up+ Home
While holding both of them simultaneously press the Power button

I actually am familiar on how to go to download moe and recovery mode. The weird thing is that my phone is unresponsive. It doesnt go to download mode or recovery mode at all. With no signs of life. And this happened yesterday morning after i used my phone for like 5 minutes when it was fine. I didnt brick my phone cus I wasnt flashing anything when this happened I just tried to reboot my phone and once the screen turned off it never came back one... kinda wierd and un heard of. But I did order a jig so hopefully it can be forced into download mode and take it from there....

Just as another note I was able to get to my DL screen by removing battery > installing battery > holding both volume buttons then plugging in usb.
Just in case u cant get to it.
If anyone knowledgable can pm me i would appreciate it (phone is not for this forum) because i do not know what to do after i get the dl screen up apparently.
THANKS!

Only thing I can think of is a crap battery that needs replacing.. You could also go to a metro store and ask em to restore it to stock. Almost all of em have the Samsung factory device. If u can get it into download mode I have a thread where I put instructions on how to recover from brick. (After 6 days of trial and error).

has anybody tried the unbricking usb thing
The jig or the Samsung device?
I havnt used the jig but tons of people have with success. You can make one or buy one off eBay for like $10.
The device I have used before on someone else's phone, AND you can use it to unlock your phone.

Yes the jig got mine for 4.35 And Im able to use another s3 or any android? Jig should b here Monday hope it works I all ready replaced phone with AT&T and got refeb. Phone if jig don't won't I have insurance on phone or maybe contact Samsung.
I literally tried everything with this phone. Was able to root, went to install siyah kernel from zip and now I get the samsung logo. I can boot into CWM recovery, but none of the functions work--just hangs on the hat. Any ideas are greatly appreciated. Thanks. I just want to flash it to stock and sell it on ebay. Loved this damn phone. I just upgraded to the S3.

Okay. I've read all your posts. You have not provided any information that would be useful to troubleshoot your issue. However, I can make a few guesses that could possibly help, and then you need to give us some details so we can help further.
1) You don't say if the phone is stock and what version of stock was on it, or whether you have custom firmware. I'm assuming you have stock, then rooted and installed the wrong version of Siyah, or perhaps a version for Siyah not made for the I777. As far as not being able to use the functions when you boot into CWM, it is probably because the select key is the home button, and not the power button.
2) You can't flash back to stock using CWM. I'm not aware of any zip with straight stock. You must use Odin to flash stock. Since you are having connection problems using Odin, I am guessing that you either did not follow the correct sequence, or that you did not install the correct USB driver on your Windows pc. Another possibility is that you have a bad usb cable or connection.
3) If you spent a month searching on the xda forum for this phone, you would have found any number of posts by myself that detail all the answers to all the questions you have posed so far. I've posted these things several dozens of times.
Please let us know if any of the above helps you. Please search these forums for issues connecting to Odin. If you are unable to find any answers that way, please post back here with more detailed information.
I have an issue with my S2 I777.
When it last booted it was on cyanogenmod 9 with siyah v4.3.3 and is a good setup. My problem is i let it die/dead battery and didn't bother to plug it in for about 4 days or so.now when i try turning it on with any button combo i get nothing.when i plug it in the battery icon just flashes and not even my jig will get it into download mode to use odin

enter download mode WITHOUT a battery in the phone
follow these steps:
-remove the battery from the phone
-hold down vol+ & vol- & power, then plug in the usb cable
-continue holding the buttons until the phone shows the download mode prompt
-put the battery into the phone (while the phone is at the download prompt)
happy flashing

K that part worked as far as getting into download mode so the phone is salvageable. However as soon as i put the battery in wile plugged in and in download mode it just shuts down.wile still plugged in i repeat the button combo and it does flash in red that the battery is to low .before posting in here it had been plugged in for one day and all last night. I was getting excellent battery life before this issue started .have tried multiple charger cords

I have heard with these devices that they behave poorly when the battery is allowed to die completely, citing that the phone needs power to start/maintain the charging circuit (it sounds silly, I agree). One common suggestion is to purchase an external charger, or go to a local mobile store and ask them to put the battery on a charger for a few minutes, or to simply purchase another battery.
Hopefully one of our peers can chime-in to verify this, or provide other options.
