Ahh, I was just flashing with Odin 3.07 the PIT and bootloaderBaseline2.tar.md5 and it failed. Now, the phone is stuck with "DOWNLOADING... DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!" and I can't get the phone to reboot.
I've held the volume + power + home buttons and nothing works.. Anyone have any ideas??

I used odin V1.82 to flash codworks kernel with CWM as described in so many threads, it seemed to work, was green, said pass, phone rebooted, then i powered off, held volume up and power button, got the galaxy sii screen with the yellow triangle, and it just boots the phone normally! Tried to flash it twice tried holding volume down too, can't figure out what I've done wrong any help?

HOLD VOL UP + VOL DOWN + POWER until you're in CWM.
Help,
My phone just stuck at the Samsung Galaxy SII GT-19100G screen..
I can't enter CWM recovery mode or Download mode as well
When I press Volume Button UP + Home + Power, it will turn off the phone and never turn back on. When I release the Volume Button Up + Home, it turned back on and stuck at the screen again.
In fact I can't even power off my phone.. When I power off it, it will auto restart and stuck at the screen again..
Anybody.. please help
I'm only taking a wild stab in the dark here but my guess is you flashed firmware for the I9100 onto your I9100G device.
Best to download firmware for the "G" model and flash via download mode. If you have a jig it might come in handy.
Looks like you have some research to do. Good luck.

Yes, lucky I manage to flash it back to the original ROM.

For reference Vol Up + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Manual Mode, not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode.

NO NO NO it puts the phone to RECOVERY MODE
not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode
NO NO NO It puts the phone to DOWNLOAD MODE .

how did you solve the problem?
my s2 is stuck at the same screen
Guys if you want to keep you phone alive then FLASH ONLY ROMS THAT ARE FOR YOUR PHONE! DON'T RUSH STUDY FIRST!
Not sure if this is the proper section for this but thought I would post this here as I'm sure it would highly assist people in development and other tasks. This is the button combinations you need to enter each mode.
ODIN/Download Mode
Make sure your device is completely off
Key(s): Volume Down
While holding this key down simultaneously press the Power button until you see a disclaimer on the screen
Then let go of both buttons and press Volume Up to accept the disclaimer
Once the green robot is visible on the screen this indicates that handset is in now ODIN/Download mode
Recovery Mode
Make sure your device is completely off
Key(s): Volume Up
While holding this key down simultaneously press the Power button
As soon as the phone vibrates, let go of the Power button but keep holding Volume Up
When you see the "Samsung Galaxy S4" logo (not just the word "Samsung"), right after that, the next screen you should see is your recovery
Don't let go of Volume Up until you see your recovery
It's not necessary to hold the Home button to boot into Odin mode, the combination for recovery is correct though.
So just power/volume down for Odin and home/volume up/power for recovery

Sorry about that, small typo on copy/paste. Has been fixed.
Thanks!
No download mode
I've been trying to get into download mode for days and can't seem to figure it out. I have the Verizon g s4 sch-i545. I've done all of the key combos and even tried some combos + plugging in the USB cable. Nothing is working for me. Any help would be nice. Thanks
I have no problem getting into recovery mode....

Home isn't necessary for recovery either. I just hold power and volume up, when the phone vibrates I let go of power and continue to hold volume up until I see the booting recovery message in the upper left.
So nothing? Nobody can offer some advice?
Moto not working
So I'm having no success with this. I went through all the steps including flashing the pre-release tar ball (MD2). All this went without fail, however once I launched Motochop and pressed enter to root. I get line Daemon not on. run port 5873. Daemon connected or on and then thats it. I don't get a notification at any point prior to me pressing enter or afterwords that I need to accept. It just stops and I get "you should reboot" from the notification bar. Have I done something wrong? I went through all the prior steps several times and I keep getting this error message.

Don't just push them. You need to hold both until you feel the phone vibrate. Then you can let go of the power button, but keep holding volume down until download mode starts.

When someone offers a debloat script that's in a Zip file and says "flash it to your device" do you think they mean flash it in Odin mode or flash using TWRP??

Odin Error
I am having one heck of a time flashing to the GS4 with Odin. I follow all of the steps to a "t" but cannot get the custom kernal onto the device. I'm having no problem getting to download mode and all the setting look to be correct, however when I start the Odin process I end up with a "fail" every time. I have been looking around the web for a few days for an answer, but so far this looks like the best thread to get help.
Make sure the kernel you are trying to flash is compatible with the Odin method. A lot of kernels can be flashed via custom recovery. The first thing I would do is uninstall and then reinstall the Samsung drivers. Make sure you have the latest and it is compatible with your computer OS. You would be surprised how often drivers can screw up Odin.

Hi Guys,
I have tried several steps here on flashing stock firmware using Odin but no hope. It doesnt detect the device in odin. I dont know what to do now. Please Help. Attached is the recovery screen that i am getting when holding the power+vol up+home button.
Thanks for the help in advance guys!
Same problem here.
Reboot the device and hold 'Vol down , HOME and Power
When you are in the download menu press vol + to continu and ODIN will see your phone

but mine doesnt detect by Odin. nothing happens at all. im stuck and dont know what to do.
CynogenMod notified me of updates so I went with it and when it rebooted my phone it was stuck in "Samsung logo". Then I tried to get to recovery mode by "home+power+volume down" and it gave me the screen of "Warning! A custom OS can cause critical problems..", now if I press Up it's stuck in "Downloading..." and if I press Down it's stuck at Samsung logo.
What can I do?

Looks like you need to flash stock firmware with odin on pc.
Just tried flashing stock ROM via PC using Odin 3.09, but after stock flashing it's still stuck at Samsung logo or "Downloading..." mode.
(using Odin 3 v3.09 and only using "AP" option of tar.md5 file without re-partitioning,PIT, etc.)
Hi Stefen Jerrard, to enter in recovery mode, you have to press volume up, not down.. Press volume up, home and power keys.
The way you did is to enter in download mode and then, pressing volume up to continue, you enter in Odin mode.
