Hi guys.. well heres my problem, i had an s2 9100t i rooted it and flash a custom ROM i dont like to much so i try flashing another ROM the second time, odin get stuck and installation failed, now the phone only shows "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try agian" i tried to get it into download mode with the buttons and with a friend´s usb jig but the phone didn´t show anything different i tried connectingto pc neither kies or odin recognize the device. i try get into recovery mode with the buttons command and nothing it only shows the message and an image with a computer and a cellphone.
When u go to download mode this brings the same screen, right?!
Did u try to connect it anyway to PC and see if odin recognized it?
If yes u can just download another firmware and flash this.
PS: u said u have a i9100t version so always be careful that u not using a standard I9100 version!
CHEERS

okay, try this:
Uninstall kies, re-install kies, close all kies applications, download odin (2 or 3 versions, latest and previous).
Remove the battery, make sure it's got juice, wait for a couple of min, re instert it, plug your device to the PC. Try to get to download mode.
If non of the above works, try usb jig.
You are welcome to repeat the process again.
Hi man the phone does nothing when i try to connect it to odin just show added in the commands but it doesnt show the yellow bar and i cant get into download mode even with the usb jig

When i first got my phone back from repair i wanted to use download mode to put the CWM in and flash it. But when i first did it it started a download process is it normal?
2.3.6
What download process exactly?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
In the middle
" Downloading ....
Do not turn off target"
It has some writing on the top left too would you like to know what it says?
nothing is downlading...it by default shows like that...when you start download from ODIN you can see the WRITING PROCESS TIMELINE under that logo
Could you please elaborate how do you put the CWM in while on the Download mode
Yep, as above. That is download mode. Now your try to connect to Odin (kill lies first). Edit: kies not lies (stupid Swype)

Oh Im just following these instructions.
- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar
- Put your phone in download mode
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure repartition is NOT checked
- Click the START button
- Wait for the phone to reboot
Im sorry its just my first time doing anything like this xD
yes instruction is correct,
Make sure dirvers are installed, Kies to be killed,
once you connected the phone to PC (connect to mother board USB socket backside)
the ID:COM box will be highlighted in yellow, and in the message box you can see "added"
Good luck...
Do you kill kies first then go into download mode?

Odin must identify your phone first like said above..
uninstall the Kies, download the latest version from Samsung install after a PC reboot, after install reboot PC, (kill means not unistall, close the applicaion, also check in your system tray)

Ensure USB debugging is on (checked) on settings first so Odin well recognise.

if you have successfully flashed correct CF-root from ODIN, thats it, next is your duty to google for rooted applications.....
@ UpInTheAir : for my knowledge if I am not correct,
Download mod itself is a debugging mode, not essenstial to do it from Menu...
the people who did not enable the debugging mod and bricked the phone or stuck on boot logo have been flashing ROMs by enterin into download mod without any treble...
@ZACQ8
Thanks i installed a custom rom now and its working fine and dandy.
One last question. Could you point me to where i can find how to check flash counter and reset it? and re flashing stock roms increase flash counter? or really how do i get everything ready so i can return my phone to repair if the time calls?

to reset counter you need a Jig and old bootloader to flash, if the current one is new...

1) try with Diff version of ODIN ( 1.85 or 3.04)
2) on a diff windows ( Xp or win7)
3)if on win7 then try running 'Odin' with 'Administrative rights' and see.
4)check with windows Task manager and see if any Kies process are running, if so kill them all and then try.

Have you thought about how to borrow s2 if you have the chance. Then it attempts to connect to Kies and see what happens. Kies should install drivers or just recognize it. After that need you to disconnect the mobile phone from the PC. Shut Kies. Put your phone into download mode. Turn Odin on PC. Connect the mobile phone with PC and seen whether it recognized. After that, put your phone into download mode and connect it to Odin.

thanks all for the help all..i've solved my problems....
turns out the usb/charging port was bad...seeing that i was able to get into download mode and no pc would detect it..i found a local guy selling parts and took it...as soon as i put it back together and connected it...bam! pc odin picked it up..so i flashed the official jb and now am back in business...:victory:
So i tried to flash Erigyts custom/stock rom with root (ZCKPA, 2.3.6) from XXKPF (2.3.5). I didnt find root for the rom, so i thought i could flash a pre-rooted rom. Odin failed, and i soft bricked the device. Im unable to boot into download mode. With my galaxy s i would take out the battery and leave it a while, and then boot into download mode and flash with odin. But i cant take out the players battery. It's like glued with the motherboard?
So i thought i could let the battery die and then charge it a bit and boot into download mode. But every time i plug in the charger/computer cable, it boots up to the softbrick screen. Ive tried very many combos, but cant figure out how to boot it into download mode. My computer/odin doesn't recognize the device.
i have no access to a jig at all.
And the phone does charge(i think).
HEEEELPPPPP!!!!!!!!
update: Ok so i figured out how to disconnect the battery. I did but it dont want to boot into download mode. It still goes to softbrick screen when i connect it to a charger/computer.

That means to get out of it, you need to re-flash what you were trying to flash earlier.

You must install driver first.
Install kies then kill kies procces and open odin and thats it a dnt forget about to thick debug
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
First install drivers.
Check Usb debugging in dev options
Third try a different usb port.
Restart your computer.
Connect your phone on download mode when Odin is open.

install kies and the driver. If it still doesn't, do the usb trouble shoot a few times
So i was attempting to originally run a firmware through odin and had auto reboot checked when i shouldnt have.
I now have a tablet that boots up with a back light screen and functions as a normal tablet, but i now have a blank recovery
and i cannot use download mode anymore. ive tried drivers, different computer, the works. No recognition in download mode.
i do not have root and am running 4.0.4
please help :X
Hmmm.
Auto reboot shouldn't have damaged anything in particular. Its exactly as it says - whether you want the tablet to reboot after you've finished flashing a rom.
Just a few questions so that we can help you easier,
-What do you mean by a blank recovery?
-Does the tablet charge via AC? That'll determine whether it is a cable problem or whether it is something else.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
Yes the tablet charges by cable. If I choose recovery option I get a back lit black screen, download mode completely unrecognizable. Currently only boots into standard android.

If u mean that u can go into download mode but can't get a PC to see the device.... I would uninstall the drivers and Odin..reboot PC and reinstall drivers and Odin. Then try. If that doesn't work try a different version of Odin and/or drivers.
I have a Q and A thread with the necessary Odin files and cwm recovery to root the p7510...there is also a link to a qbking77 video.
Good luck...

well then we're down to the old battery drain trick....its been awhile since ive had to tell somebody how to do this....so give me until tomorrow night and ill see if i can find some good links to guides for you...
in the mean time you can google battery drain, bootloader, download mode and just about every other word combination you can think of for this method.....
..... which is to drain the battery to absolute zero...take it out...put it back in...plug the device in...and before the charging screen comes on you need to boot into the bootloader...
i know...sounds crazy,but ive seen it work time and time again...now those werent the exact steps...but i thougbt you would .eed atleast some sort of over view if you are going to go google hunting with me..lol
Same problem
I've the same problem. I'm trying to install Android in a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the download mode has "waiting for usb cable". Odin doesn't recognize it, adb doesn't either. The tablet doesn't have an OS. Tried several usb cables, computers. It doesn't have an sd card slot to install from there.
I'm really at lost here , please help
