[Q] Galaxy S II Software Brick ? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys ,
I have Samsung Galaxy s II i9100G
Now it is not responding to anything no download mod , recovery or anything it is dead.....
I've tried the following
JIG to force the download mod …. failed
Jtag to repartition and do some stuff i don't know but people talking about it ,,,,failed
what i did
Tring to root the device with a wrong package ,,,, I've downloaded the CF-Root and did not decompress it and uploaded it to the device via heimdal
Then to fix that i decompressed it and got the zImage file …. send it to the device and checked the re-partition option with a pit file
apparently this pit file did a wrong repartition so the device has no idea about the download mod partition or even the recovery
my device is not recognized on any thing odin, heimdal !!!!
If anyone has any idea about fixing this **** I'am in please tell me or even a chipset to be changed cause i really don't think that wrong repartitioning will cause all of this

Moving to I9100 section.

flashing a non g kernel on the g model ?
Perfect.
And you re partitioned.
And you JTAG'ed yourself..
Not to mention you DOUBLE POSTED!

[Q] hard bricked GB-70...

My Galaxy Player is Korean, and i tried to flash a International firmware, but i failed.
Mine was originally KRKPL, and i tried to flash XXKPH. I didn't know I needed to factory reset, so i came back to KRKPH, and tried to wipe, and failed. I flashed KRKPL and i couldn't as well. XXKPH doesn't work also.
When i tried to do factory reset, it says it can't mount.
I've attached two pictures.
This is not mine but it has same situation.
Plz help me guys...

Have you tried to wipe the cache and whatnot? If so take a look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1498421
What are you using to flash a rom?
Just a comment to you: this is not a hard brick. It is hard bricked if you cannot turn it on at all. This is a soft brick.

Um... I'm really sorry but as English is not my first language, i cant fully understand wts there...
Just to make sure wts happening on my device, I cant boot it and I cant wipe cache or factory reset cause it says it cant mount
And... since they(the people on that link) are talking about LG device, not Galaxy Player, I cant use the files or smth...
Maybe it is because i didnt understand it. i think so.
So i will be great if you just explain to me little bit easier and more wt i should do..
thx

im using odin to flash the ROMs
and i thought it was a hard brick.. soz
The problem on the other post was the same as yours. However he used rom manager to flash the rom which was the source of his problem as he told rom manager that he was using a different device to what he was using.
What version of odin are you using? Also just checking, when you flash, you are putting it in PDA and have all the things that need to be ticked/ unticked, ticked or unticked.
I think that you're problem is that you have lost your partition tables. So this is what you should do: odin3 rebuild partitions, with valid pit file and one package in PDA

ROM Manager is a app of market, past that I dont know much as it hard bricks my device the moment you grant it sudo permissions, but Cyanogenmod likes it as you can wirelessly "send" ROMS to your phone.
Ill see if i can get a 16G PIT
- Edit, only can find PITs for the 4.0 version 16GB, but I assums as the hardware stays the same (only size of solid state drive changes) it should work, good luck.
One package in PDA and yes, it is the firmware file, it contains boot, systemrfs, csc and modem perhaps- not to sure as its not a phone. but it has all you need.
so... ur telling me to use 4.0 PIT and 5.0 firmware? is that right?
and isnt rom manager a app in android device? how can u use that to flash a rom?

Im note sure about your first question but harry will know that. I would have thought that you would use 4.0 pit and 4.0 firmware, maybe harry thought you had a 5.0, I will check with him.
But yes you can flash a rom with rom manager however I would not recommend it as it is likely that it will brick your device. Check other people trying it on your 4.0 though, I wont use it because I do not fancy I hard brick. There are however many other applications that do the same but I would stick to odin if I were you. If you did decide to use a mobile rom flasher then I would say mobile odin would be your best choice but once again I have not used it myself.
If you choose to use rom mangager then check out this for a full explanation: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/koush/32771-faq-what-rom-manager-how-do-i-use.html

i have a glaaxy player 5.0 16G.
so do you recommend using PIT for 5.0 8G or 4.0 16G?

I would use pit for 5.0 8gb and firmware for 5.0, korean and see how it goes if you can't find the 16gb pit. This is because only the size of drive changes, no other hardware nor software. The kernel should be exactly the same. So I would not recommend using 4.0 pit otherwise you may brick or come into another problem. If the 8gb pit does not work then ask around on the forums for the 16gb pit, and if no one has it then give the 4.0 16gb pit a go.
Sorry I got a bit confused there, I was helping someone out who has a 4.0.
I would stay away from 4.0 stuff for your 5.0 if I were you
Sent from my Motorola Xoom
The 5.0 firmware and pit, the 5.08gb will be wa better match than 16gb4.0
wait... i fount GB70 16GB PIT(Korean one), and flashed with KRKPL, but still doesnt work...
I have checked re-partition and put PIT and firmware on odin.. :'(

You're problem is a problem with lost partitions, so you need to get them back. Usually by doing what you did before. So I will look for you and if you look online as well, you need to put partitions back to stock or recover lost partions.

brick the phone after flash with a wrong pit file

hi there,
i flash my phone with a wrong pit file, and i run into a problem. its already fixed again by my self, but i want to share my experience with you, maybe someone can use it too.
you can download stock- roms, odin and pit files for your phone on sammobile.com. i found a explanation on samdownloads.de with follow information's:
- pit file with 220 on the end is for 16gb version
- pit file with 322 is for 32bg version
- pit file with 329 is for 64gb version
HOLD ON! This information's are wrong for me, and that's why i ran into this problem.
so i download a rom, and i choose the 322 file for my device and start with the flash process. result from that was, that odin hangs on step, SET PARTITION, and that was it. before, i already deleted the other pit files, while i was thinking i didn't need it. so the first was, i investigate some times to find the pit files on the net again and i start to flash with all files, one after the other..
my phone hangs with 220 pit file, with 322 pit file but i get it successfully flashed with 329 file, which if i believe to samdownloads.de was the file for the 64gb version of the phone.
in my opinion and if i look on my experience right now, for international i9300 32bg version the right pit file was the 329. after flashing it again, my phone was again fully stock, everything was fine, my 25gb free space was there, so its fine.
maybe i can help someone with this information's..

I've had my S3 since may 25th MAY and done tons of flashing of ROMS. Never have i ticked the pit as it was clearly mentioned in all the flashing tutorials. There is no need to do it and dont need to encourage others to do something which can hard brick their phones.

its only as a information, maybe somebody runs into the same problem..
It's true that's it's not advised to play with pit files, but I think it would be better if you explained to people why.
Pit files are to be used only when you need to restore partition layout on the phone. That means after you mess up partitions and not before. Bu some guys just ignore warnings like this.

The why is generally that they use the wrong PIT files .
One of the stupid reasons why is going to forum xxxx downloading firmware from them then coming here to ask why has it broke my phone .
PIT mistakes for SG range are in the thousands not just the odd few .

Nothing you can do. If you flash a wrong pit file then your phone is broken. Hard bricked.
The only possibility for you is finding someone with a JTAG box. Try one of those phone repair shops. AFAIK, that's your only hope.
Flashing a wrong pit file is pretty much the worst possible thing you can do to your phone. How the hell did you manage to flash the wrong pit file? Didn't you double, triple, quadruple check that it was the correct file before flashing?
Please don't tell me that you knew that the file was meant for another phone? I've actually seen people do that... :facepalm:

It is possible because people usually think in terms of branding. Not aware different models may exist in different regions. Example the note gen1 has Korean and Chinese and US versions, each has a different model number.

HELP i think flashed the wrong .tar root file for my Galaxy J7 Pro
Hey man,
XDA doesn't trust me enough to let me make my own post and as I'm writing this I'm supposed to be studying for the 3 exams I will be having.
So,
I rooted my phone susing ODIN and the same root file a few months ago on Android 7.1 and it worked. I used it with TWRP recovery and everthing was fine.
Then the Android Oreo update was released for my phone, finally, and I hooked my phone up to my laptop and downloaded the firmware using Samsung's new Software called SmartThings.
Now I had stock ROM, but my device was recognized as rooted and modified, so couldn't use a few apps like Samsung Health and Pay. Then, without thinking, I put my phone in Download Mode and flashed the SAME .tar root file with ODIN, and now my phone won't boot to the pulsating Samsung logo and is stuck in the bootloader
wanted to say that Odin said PASS when .tar file was downloaded in the AP slot
In download mode,
Download Mode says:
Current Binary: Custom
System status: Official
FAP LOCK: OFF
OEM LOCK: OFF
Secure Download: Enabled
WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x0303)
I have access to STOCK recovery and download mode, and I've already tried factory resetting phone and wiping cache. I don't want to take more rash steps without someone knowledgeable guiding me. and I cant find any other forum to post on because I'm not a high enough member.
I have fixed when up wrong file pit

[Q] When should U go for a PIT file?

Just as the Subject says. Only for knowledge purposes (though my phone is bricked :/ )
I get absolutely NO ERRORS while flashing ANY firmware for that matter through Odin. Though my phone is U.K Unbranded I9300XXBLG8.
It should boot-up but doesn't :/
Can't get into Recovery either. Not even a glimpse of it.
Stuck at the i9300 logo :/
Anyone care to help me and answer the following questions?
1. When is flashing a PIT File suitable? At what error u should do it?
2. Do I have a Bootloader/Recovery Problem or something?
3. Will J-Tagging help it?
4. Can someone tell me what is causing this problem? I haven't seen anyone with this problem yet. The firmware as well as CF Root flashes successfully (in Odin)... though the phone shows no positive results.
5. Should I go for PIT or J-Tagging or something else? I don't wanna risk it. All I know is that u should only flash a PIT file when u get the "Get PIT for Mapping" error. And J-Tagging is when the phone doesn't boots up. (I may be wrong)
Anyone with some suitable knowledge please drop by and help me.
Or someone who had this problem before.
My phone is a GT-i9300
CSC Version: I9300OXABLG8
Last Firmware was XXBLG8.
Pebble Blue non-branded and 16gb version.
THANK U
don't panic!
You should be able to fix it by just flashing a stock firmware with Odin
---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 PM ----------
you could also try removing the battery for a few minutes and then reinsert and try voting recovery again
Only go for a pit file, if you're planning to flash-lock the device, or repartition it, for that matter.
Don't panic, if your device is bricked, it's not, actually
You f***ed up your boot partition..
Goto sammobile.com/firmware, register, download latest U.K. firmware and then you should be good to go. Then you can root it and everything. DW about your SD, it'll stay as it is..
Hope I could help!

Flashing a pit is risky, and interruption could lead to hard brick, however if you do it right then all will be good, I used to flash with pit on the s1 regularly as it was a necessity coming from cm to gb, or something along those lines.
Just make sure you know what you are doing
PROGRESS!!!!!!!!!!
OK i think my phone is alive. I managed to get it into the CWM Recovery. But there seems to be one little problem. That I can't mount my SDCard. Even tried mounting in the "Mounts and Storage" Option. Im kinda hopeful but I don't know what to do now
Tried Factory/Data Resetting but that didn't do any good. Have i Effed my SDCard or something??? :/ :/

any specific error messages about that in cwm?
Personally i used .pit with no issues. My story was that i changed the original partition layout and flashed stock .tar after that. CWM was functional but couldn't mount anything. So i just grabbed a .pit and flashed stock together with .pit - all fine.
And regarding the "interruptions" during .pit flashing - it was the same speed as flashing without .pit, at least for me.
If in your case it's simple filesystem corruption, connecting over adb and launching fsck on the messed up partitions should provide some results.

Galaxy S II Software Brick ?

Hey guys ,
I have Samsung Galaxy s II i9100G
Now it is not responding to anything no download mod , recovery or anything it is dead.....
I've tried the following
JIG to force the download mod …. failed
Jtag to repartition and do some stuff i don't know but people talking about it ,,,,failed
what i did
Tring to root the device with a wrong package ,,,, I've downloaded the CF-Root and did not decompress it and uploaded it to the device via heimdal
Then to fix that i decompressed it and got the zImage file …. send it to the device and checked the re-partition option with a pit file
apparently this pit file did a wrong repartition so the device has no idea about the download mod partition or even the recovery
my device is not recognized on any thing odin, heimdal !!!!
If anyone has any idea about fixing this **** I'am in please tell me or even a chipset to be changed cause i really don't think that wrong repartitioning will cause all of this
Wow, going for the record number of epic fails in one go?
Last I checked, CF-root was not available for the I9100G.
Flashing a kernel not meant for your device while at the same repartitioning with unknown, random pit file? Impressive.
I somehow doubt you have the skills or equipment to JTAG.

apparently this pit file did a wrong repartition so the device has no idea about the download mod partition or even the recovery
my device is not recognized on any thing odin, heimdal !!!!
If anyone has any idea about fixing this **** I'am in please tell me or even a chipset to be changed cause i really don't think that wrong repartitioning will cause all of this

I am now really interest to see your jtag skills.

Wow, going for the record number of epic fails in one go?
Last I checked, CF-root was not available for the I9100G.
Flashing a kernel not meant for your device while at the same repartitioning with unknown, random pit file? Impressive.
I somehow doubt you have the skills or equipment to JTAG.

No I didn't jTag it by myself someone did that and failed ... you should doubt it cause i even may not fully understand what the jTAG does but i was told that it is a valid solution
What I'am asking you to tell what happend exactly to the device and should i change HW pic or it can be fixed

Seems like an MOBO replacement is the only solution left for ur phone for now.
Approach the nearest Samsung Service center and see what they quote for the same

by the way I didn't flush a wrong kernel it is a wrong CF-Root and then repartition

CF-Root ....IS.... a kernel.
Its likely you flashed a incorrect partition file to your device and screwed up emmc. You will need a motherboard replacement if you cant access download mode.

I have a pit pulled from efs pro for i527 never tried it. it needs to be flashed with stock rom two. if you use just the pit to format you will have a hard bricked phone. as i never tried it it could brick your phone. if you still want the file let me know. big chance of hard brick

It shouldn't brick the phone as i do it all the time with my i527m and never bricked it yet, unless the i527 acts different. :good:

Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 GT-I9200 MTK6572A Bricked Need Help Urgent
Hi
Anyone who can help me fix my phone. I was to load a custom ROM on my phone but since i was using SP Flash Tools accidentally clicked full format and everything is gone and nothing turns on. When i plug in the phone the unknown device dhows in the device manager of windows 8.1 I have tried to install the drivers but every time i try to flash it it returns with DRAM FAIL or some other related errors. I have made an insane mistake and seems like i have BRICKED the phone. I am unable to find the ROM, The Kernel, Scatter file, I have managed to get a scatter file but it does not work with the SP Flash tools. I tried to use ODIN but the phone does not go into download mode previously while trying to install the custom ROM. The chip is MTK 6572A, It is a dual core 1.7ghz, Mali 400, I have lost the original backup and everything. Please folks help me to fix the phone back and how can I go about it any thing that can make it work I would be thank full.
