I used factory reset on my S2 and now to phone has gone into an endless loop.
I used the reset because the phone kept on freezing (few months into using Litening rom 6.0).
When I try to connect my phone to Odin, it doesn't connect at all.
What can I do to fix my phone?
Try entering recovery via vol up,menu and power and try wiping in there or try vol down, menu and power, I've had boot loop and had to do this before

Hello,
I own a Vibrant with firmware Galaxy S I9000, as you can see in the picture (I did get confused by this), I was trying to return to the previous ROM that was backed up at the CWM, which gave error, inadvertently I rebooted the phone without CM7 reinstall and now I am always on this screen, if I try to enter download mode (usb cable plugged in, power up + down + and put the battery), I have a black screen with a loading symbol of standing, and that's it. I wonder if there are still chances that I get into the download mode with the method JIG? In order to use the software Odin. Thank you.
As i known you can be able to get download mode using jig method. But if your phone hardbricked(phone is dead) only you can use jtag method.

Hi there, well, I wanted to install ICS, & I used this guide, & when i installed CM7 first, it restarted like it should during installation, but i get a bootloop. So, now, I can't access "Download mode" nor, the CWM recovery screen. Even when i hold VolUP & Down+Power, & it would go straight to the animation. I was going to install this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1502830 Any clue what to do?

What bootloaders do you have installed? The key combo to get into recovery changes if you are on GB bl's.
From the guide:
Scroll down to "Install from SD Card" and scroll down to your ICS folder. Find your CM7 file and hit it. Once it finishes, reboot. It will probably bootloop. This is normal. Pull your battery and boot into (red or green) recovery again, "Install from SD" and reflash CM7.

Get back into recovery per the key combo for your bootloader and reflash CM7 over itself again. One this also to remember is that when you see the Vibrant pop up, take your finger OFF the power button when doing the key combo. Sometimes this is forgotten while in panic mode.
Well, uh, just saying, my nephew the other day was slobbing on my usb port, & now, the only time i can turn it on is when i plug in the usb. but, now, when i do that, usually when u plug it in, when its off, the battery bar would come up. Right? Well, for my phone, it seems like, the battery would come up, but it would be a loading bar stuck @ it, & I can't access anything. Is that normal for the bootloop ?

If you are correctly pressing the combination for recovery (volup+home+power) or download mode (volup+voldown+power) and still not getting into recovery or download modes then I am guessing that you tried Ace GT-S5830 custom ROM (or any other incompatible one) on Ace-i GT-5830i, and your phone is not recognizing the key combinations. In that case, as domnic79 said your phone is bricked, and if USB jig is not working, the only way is to either claim it in warranty or use the JTAG method to unbrick your phone. If you somehow successfully get into download mode; use odin to flash multifirmware stock rom from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1822109

Any phone going into Odin mode is salvageable. Just use Odin and flash away. Make sure you do it right. I would recommend you read tutorials and do it step by step. All the best, let us know how it goes.

Maybe the version you used via Odin had a region lock. How about try flashing a rom and then see if you get signal???

You need unlocked bootloader or for locked bootloader this: WWW(DOT)play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pvy.CWMinstaler&hl=cs
But, always you need root. It´s good for backups, installing ROMs and much more
Install x-parts from google play, start it, then hit Install CWM. Your phone must be rooted to do this.
I have installed it already guys!!!! After installing it said 'installation is complete please reboot and use the options'' how to use it further guys can anybody tell me???? All says,flash it via cwm but how flash any file????

Did you try rebooting into CWM?
Turn off the phone, then, turn it on again, when the sony logo comes up, wait abit for it to flash then spam the volume down button until it comes up.
If it still didn't work, spam the power button instead of volume down.

okay see what you should do exactly is that when you reboot your phone and the device turns on... as soon as you see the sony logo keep pressing the volume DOWN button and tadaaa you'll go to the cwm menu
if not keep pressing the volume DOWN button as soon as your phone vibrates after the reboot
click "THANKS" if it works
Try spamming volume up
