Did you flash any custom ROMs or is your phone completely stock?

First thing to do is to check the battery condition.
Put the phone on charge, then plug in the battery. Is there any heat as it charges?

yes there is heat .. i don't think the battery is dead .. when i removed the battery it was on charge and fully charged ..
sorry sorry there is no heat tell now
You have no recovery mode to try a factory reset .
In which case you need a service centre .
jje
so that's it i have to return the phone for the second time ..
and what is about the battery heat there is no heat does that mean the battery is dead or what

I just tested it and apparently no, won't turn on or go into either recovery or download mode.
You might get lucky and its just a faulty battery or your phone might really be dead. Either way your all set as its under warranty...

It doesn't matter, the phone is still dead. Good you have a warranty though
Good.
My galaxy s2 failed to turn on.
Yesterday I installed the rom-BAR7 CriskeloRomV22-S-Tog-BLN-CallRec-Overscroll-3LS-CamHack-PWR-M-Esxt-(XXKI3-2.3.5), and the kernel SiyahKernel v1.7.8
and it works good
He was charging all night, the morning did the Battery Calibration, and was working perfectly
By late afternoon, I'll take it, and it dont turn on, nor in download mode or recovery mode or normally.
If you connect the charger a bit, note that it heats up, but no links or picture or anything
If connected to the computer appears to be installed this drive, but without success as you can see the image HERE
What solutions are there, without being sent to the warranty?
thanks
Pull the battery, wait a minute, reinsert the batterry and see if you get in recovery or downloadmode.
You could try a USB Jig.

Just a thought
Maybe you had huge battery drain because of the rom or an application and it can not charged because of the temperature.Happened to me once with cm7(most probably my drain was from webroot security or setcpu)
.Remove the battery for longer time eg 15minutes and try to charge it
Ps if you have zero battery you can not enter recovery or download mode.I lived that and its really annoying

Yes as you have been informed already .
One try the USB recovery jig to turn download mode on that fails or you dont want to try a service centre for a non warranty repair .

Just another guess:
Charge the battery for some minutes.
After unplugging the phone, pull out the battery, external SD-card and SIM-card for some minutes.
Try to start that phone with battery only.
Good luck ...

if you know someone who has the same phone why not try using their battery?
or leave the phone to charge overnight and see what happens in the morning...

I feel like an idiot..... installed the wrong ROM on my Galaxy S2-UK
I installed CheckROM V5 and found out it was actually for the Galaxy Note before it was too late, it installed fine from holding power button, home button and volume up, then going to install Zip from folder and rebooted. When it rebooted my Galaxy S2 logo came up and then the screens pixels all turn white one by one. I tried to do the power button,home button and volume button to go in and uninstall it and the same thing happens, white screen,
I can't even get odin to recognise the device is plugged into my laptop.
Have I ruined my Galaxy S2? is it fixable?

You can't go to download mode? (which is vol-down, home, and power; you didn't specify which volume button you tried)
You should probably invest a couple bucks into a USB jig to see if that can get you into download mode if not.
Yes I tried to go into download mode and it just goes all white bit by bit. Is a Jig my only option ?
ELmusiK said:

Maybe...
So even if it goes all white, I wonder if you can still actually enter download mode. After the phone boots when doing vol-down + home + power, while it is going all white, try hitting vol-up and plugging the phone into your USB cable on your computer. If Odin goes yellow in the ID:COM block, you should be good to go to try flashing back to stock.
If that doesn't work, try a jig.
Cool, I will try that thanks, the battery is dead so I will try it later, another point to add, i just plugged it in to charge it there and the icon for the battery came on, the screen refreshed itself and all the pixels slowly started turning white and black on the screen.

Flashing the Note ROM may have replaced the video drivers. I'm just guessing though. Get a stock firmware from Intratech's official firmware thread and have a go at flashing it back.
Things have taken an interesting turn, went to a shop in town today who were convinced they could fix it for me for €20 and I have been informed that my battery is damaged as they couldn't even hook it up to a universal charger,I did find a bulge on the back of it. i'm sure this explains nothing but I'm going to get a new one tomorrow and try everything you have said, thanks for your help and i'll post here again.
Hi guys,

Actually my battery is down. I can go to download mode but it says Low Batter cannot download.
As soon as I connect batter it starts showing white screen and then it switches off because of low battery.
How can I charge my battery and put phone into download mode.?

If you know someone with an SGS2 you can switch battery for some minutes to get into recovery. Be sure the battery is more than 50% ...

Battery gone after installing CheckRom for Note. I bought new battery , went into downlode mode and installed stock rom.
But Why CheckRom Note is not checking if the device is actually Note or not? is it so difficult to implement.
You're kidding right ? You actually expect devs to put "safeguards" in their roms/kernels in case idiots flash firmware for a completely different phone onto their own ?
That really does speak volumes

I agree. Flashing your phone is serious business. You wouldn't just download any old random operating system and install it on your computer without making sure it was intended to go on your computer first, would you? Why would you essentially do the same thing on your phone?
Hi!
While doing a nandroid backup restoring my SGS2 went off suddenly.
Now is not responding to power button, not responding to 3 buttons combinations and not responding to usb JIG :crying:
Somebody can help me please??
Rom? Kernel?
How about battery level?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Low battery or dead battery?
Very much doubt its ROM / Kernel related.
However power/battery may be a problem, have you tried to turn it on with the power plugged into the phone or after allowing it to charge for 5 min? In fact if you plug it it to a wall charger do you get the battery charging icon?
Im suspecting a hardware issue to be honest, if a device switches off like that half way through an innocuous task its either power or a hardware problem.

When went off it was at 67% of battery.
Now I can't even charge the phone, when I plug the charge into the phone no battery image appears
I was on latest XXLQ5 and wanted to restore nandroid backup of KI8 while this happens.

No battery icon when connecting the charger. And can't power on with charger connected
Try leaving it on the charger for 45 mins or 2 hour and try to power on your phone (Remove it from the charger when you try to power it on).

I had similar bsod, & following saved me.
1. Launch Odin
2. Plug ph in to PC w/o battery in it.
3. Do 3 button combo for d/l mode.
4. While still holding 3 button combo... now - insert battery (tricky but can be done)
5. If ph goes into d/l mode, flash your stock ROM now with Odin...
Saved my bacon before. Hope it works for you

No its supposed to work on ALL Samsung devices, read the OP
I found this reading a French blog which is written by a SGS II owner ;-)
i upgrade from gingerbread to ics a week back with odin there wasn't any serious problem except for some java errors msgs,occasional rebooting and battery disconnected alerts. The frequency with which all this error occur reduced to some manageable level which was okay with me. Two days ago i tried charging the phone it, displays the battery charging icon but the white dot that moves at the bottom stops at the 2nd white spot and the phone acts like i just re plugged it, i have tried booting into recovery or odin mode with the three button combination all to no avail.

Try pulling out battery and wait 10mins, also check if u have enough battery left before u start odin again.
It's very strange if u can't use recovery or odin mode cuz the phone shouldn't boot in the first place.
I got the same problem my usb port is kinda broken, so i charge the phone with SGNote externel charger, but then my phone will act strange, It connects with charger and then disconnects when its unplugged.

Remove battery for 10 mins, then replace and leave to charge, even if nothing comes on screen etc just leave it plugged in and charging for a few hours or obvernight.
After that try booting up into download or recovery if still nothing happens try a USB jig. If that doesnt work your device is pretty much screwed and you will have to send away for JTAG flash or mobo replacement.
Btw, this has pretty much already been covered a million times in the other "my phone wont turn on" threads.

May be many S2 devices have this problem. And I had too. It 's often hardware related problem. After reparing it 's ok. But firstly, try to clean charging port, if it does not resolve, bring it to service care.
