Hi
Yesterday i rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100m VIA The zergrush exploit.
I Tried to flash CWM Via Odin and it did not work!
My phone will not access recovery and when turned on normally says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
I have tried flashing the bootloader, kernel, CSC, modem, and firmware several times but they always fail!
I tried to follow this guide here and it also did not work!
I can not think of what else to do so i have posted this thread here!
Thanks
*EDIT*
This is what originally ****ed me up: http://galaxys2root.com/galaxy-s2-r...ckworkmod-recovery-on-rooted-galaxy-s2-i9100/
if you read the comments everyone is having the same issue
*EDIT*
- What is the error you were getting in Odin=I have successfully flashed a pit file and when trying to flash my firmware it comes up with this
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/004> Initialzation..
<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/004> factoryfs.img
<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/004>
<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
So it is failing at NAND Write Start!!
- Did you try to flash other recovery's? If yes, then which one= No but i am now
- Do you still have download mode= Yes
- Did you flash .pit files or re-partitoned= Yes i flashed the correct pit file and it succeeded
- What firmware were you on= I9100MKG2
- Did you reinstall the drivers= Several Times
- Tried different usb port / pc= Yes
- Did you try different cables= Yes
So I guess you've flashed a stock I9100M ROM via odin and failed too, right?

Yes i have!
Flash custom kernel so you can get to recovery then.
And if you tried that too keep on flashing.
Hold on a sec, odin passes or fails?

You need to start giving more details if you want help...
- What is the error you were getting in Odin?
- Did you try to flash other recovery's? If yes, then which one?
- Do you still have download mode?
- Did you flash .pit files or re-partitoned?
- What firmware were you on?
- Did you reinstall the drivers?
- Tried different usb port / pc?
- Did you try different cables?
If you want help, I suggest you start giving us all the info that you can give us instead of saying "they always fail".

Sorry about that and i have updated my thread!
Oh boy, did I just read that you used a .pit file and that the flashing failed? You do know that the flashing needs to succeed when you flash a .pit?
Did you use a .pit the first time when the flashing failed?

Really should stay well away from .pit files man.... Reads like jtag or paperweight time.

I'm not sure if you're kidding, so I am answering you assuming you're not.
The thread was about going back to bone stock to use kies to upgrade but not getting the modem to flash properly. He was able to do that, then was able to get the ics update.
Bottom line -- he returned to stock.
Don't bash me if I misunderstood you. If you do I will burn your house down (just kidding).

Lol I see, an no you right... I misunderstood the whole modem ordeal and thought that he said that he only needed the gb modem to flash through kies to get the update and that seemed strange to i questioned it. Seeing that he returned to bone stock means that was not the case, thanks bro

I still have CWM Recovery. how can I get the Stock recovery back?
Thanks.
Use Kies to install UCLF6 ICS. It will wipe the CWM kermel. The old 3e recovery will be the default.

When you say "flash the stock modem", how is this done? i've looked all over and my mind is numb. Sorry, I'm new. I know how to do the reboot using the up/down + pwr to get into recovery. Is flashing done by executing the zip file on an sd card or on the phone? This is where I am unclear and I dont want to screw up my phone. Thanks for all help.
Is there an Odin .tar version of this by any chance?

Download the zip file.
Use 7zip and unzip the file.
Start Odin.
Put phone in download mode.
Connect to pc. Verify com.
Put modem.bin from zip in odin phone slot and flash.
Just checking

So when you say flash ... you mean just click start without selecting any other option in the odin?

If so, try restoring your phone with the factory Rom using odin

yes i can get to download mode but i cant install stock rom.
thats what the t-mobile thread was asking to do. i can install stock kernel but not rom.
Why were you trying to install google now, when they said in the thread that it was only for ASOP Roms (CM9 or AOKP) anyway? Maybe try to push via adb if someone has a copy for you model if possible.

Good luck. This is ugly. I still have not rooted my device because besides working great as is, I am not comfortable hacking it. I know if I mess it up it is my fault and the thought of ruining it and cost I paid is making me cautious. I may hack it down the line. But for now, I'm going to enjoy it as is.
Hopefully, you get it restarted somehow.

I'm guessing u installed all the right drivers if Odin sees your phone right? Are u using the most updated version of Odin made for our phones? U try download the rom agn? Maybe bad download, if yes try download a different version of rom, maybe the rooted one or if that's the one u used download the factory one, u try different computer? Reboot computer? , pull battery from phone for few min, some of these things sound stupid and pointless but take it from a guy with 7 samsungs its almost impossible to brick a Samsung
yea i got all the drivers and download correctly working. its weird cus it can install kernal and not rom, oh and im trying to install stock rom. only stock rom for t mobile comes in .tar type all other are made for cmw .zip format. im sure it can be unbricked but it will take some developer to get that done. i found this thread where alot of people messed up on same thing so hoping there will be solution soon. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28531684#post28531684

What about the tool kit? U can install rooted rom from there while in Odin no? Try the 3.06 version of Odin? I.mean **** what u have to lose at this point . I'd still redownload the file if was me even if waste of time . I have a at&t version and we have 100% stock Odin and a rooted Odin ..
U said u can install the kernel?? Can u get into cwr with correct kernel? Probably dumb question but I asked anyway
Rooting is of no real risk for ATT at least.

A friend of mine over at a Swedish forum is having problems with his SGS3 i9300. His phone just died, completely random, and refused to boot. he can only boot to download mode, nothing else.
He tried flashing a stock nordic ROM, which failed since ODIN threw him a "there is no pit partition" message. He tried flashing various PIT files, but it all stops with "there is not PIT partition" He did not do anything to his device for this to happen, it just died on him and that's where it all started.
Shot in the dark, but has his NAND memory somehow crashed, which caused the error of not booting/not accepting PIT files?

Hi! It just happened to me today! In the morning I was using the phone - calling someone.
Then put it into my pocket, went to work, and there it was already at the boot page, and staying there when resetting.
Tried to flash with odin, and I get the same error message as your friend.
I had a stock 4.0.4 rom, never touched anything on the phone yet.....
Any idea from someone?
edit:
as i9000 has linked to newer firmware with everything in post bellow, so just use that.

you have to download pit file so it can create a partition. download it and flash it together with the tar file of your desired firmware. i had the same problem but it couldn't create a partition as it is full bricked and i sent it for a warranty

if you have a problem as well then probably you have a problem with nand so you have to send it for warranty as well
Thanks for all the replys, i will check and update

What ROM and what Kernel did you use before it happened (Kernel version is also important)? And what did you mean with you got stuck? Details are important when you are dealing with cases like this.
I saw this kind of screen before, some guy had the same problem. However he couldn`t fix himself. Ever heard of Sudden Death?

No one has been successful with that method yet. The issue will be that the wear levelling bug has wiped out your eMMC and it needs replacing.
Have a read in the general forum of the "ultimate SDS thread" or whatever its called. There is also my "important - are you covered" thread stuck at the top of general.
So thats the sudden death ? Were you on 4.1.2 before you bricked?

before rooting was on what ever the latest firmware was
i did not use triangle away
i was using paranoid android 4.2.2
then went to cmod9
so i think i am screwed
CM9 has no SDS fix.
All you can do is try and get warranty repair if you're still in warranty. Otherwise pay for a Mobo repair / replacement.
Someone posted a how to to fit a new eMMC and the cost of the eMMC was cheap, but the effort was a lot.
People gotta take care what firmware to flash :/ Stock 4.1.2 is safe , I used DFG and didnt get any freeze for like a week so my phone's stable now ... maybe samsung come up with a new firmware which makes your phone explode or ruin our devices ... Who knows >.< ?

just wanted to know from an expert will one of then work for me?
I had the latest 4.1.2 stock OTA installed via CWM and I wanted to unroot and go back to stock and that seemed to work fine.... I went to the old version VRALL4 and once rebooted it asked me to update OTA so I did and that was fine........ and it asked me to do it again for some reason and now I'm in a boot loop. The Galaxy note 2 logo flashes on the screen real fast and turns off over and over. I can only get into ODIN and not stock recovery. I've tried re-flashing the original odin package, and the pre-rooted odin packages and nothing is working.... what can I do? am i fux0rd? thx
edit: also USB all drivers are installed .......
Try a factory reset in the stock recovery. Then give it a whirl.

Checkout this thread by Adam Outler called "DON'T ACCEPT OTA UPDATES" in the Verizon Galaxy Note II General section. I'm aware that you aren't experiencing this specific problem, but it should fix your boot loop problem. You'll need the two files that he makes available just below the picture. I've had others tell me that they used those files to successfully fix boot loops.

I can only get into odin... not even stock recovery. the odin app doesn't even work most of the time....
If i hold vol up + power + home it just continues to boot loop flashing the note 2 logo....... downloading one more odin file to see if this can fix it..... :crying:
I knew I should have used triangle away before doing this as if I take it to the VZ store they're going to be able to tell that it'd been modified before....
The lesson you should learn from this is DO NOT ACCEPT OTAS! Not sure how you haven't understood that since it has been stated more than enough times in almost every thread.

First of all, I'm not a noob and I did get the system back up.... as I said above i was trying to UNROOT not ROOT my device using Odin which I have done many times. This is the first time I've ran into the boot loop issue.... so I flashed a stock unrooted odin tar.md5 and this is the issue that I had.... now when I did that, I thought I was unrooted but obviously the bootloader did not get flashed back to stock... anyways thanks for your oh so useful post in lumping me in with the n00bz... :laugh:
anyways
now im facing another issue where its still has the rooted bootloader installed but an "official" stock rom on it.....
I'm not saying you're a noob. All I'm trying to get you to understand is to read before doing. As with your unlocked bootloader issue, you probably overlooked that there are 2 ways to restore to stock. One re locks the bootloader and the other doesn't. Read more and don't skim the guide, that's all I'm saying my dude.

thats what Ive been trying to find for ages and I've downloaded 4 or 5 different "stock" odin packages which puts me back to the original 4.1.1 I506VRALJB version....
So I'm trying to find the ODIN package that wipes everything (bootloader esp)....... thanks..... and with goo.im having so many issues its really tough finding all the files I need.
....hmmmmmmm so I updated superSU and unchecked a box that "hides" root - but if I accept another OTA i'm sure I'll be stuck with another boot loop until I really flash the unlocked bootloader with the OEM one right?
DO NOT ACCEPT OTAS! Lol. I forgot which thread had the right file. I'll look around and try to find it. Which files from which threads have you tried?

Tried this one which puts me on the original oem rom that came with the phone w/ no updates....
The only way I was able to get out of the boot loop is use the PIT file and this file root66_VZW_stock_system.tar.md5
http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-note-2-root/how-to-root-verizon-galaxy-note-2-sch-i605/
Here is where I Found the "pre-rooted" file... I put that in the bootloader section of ODIN along with the PIT file and this fixed my boot loop problem.
so even tho ODIN mode says "official" and not custom - this is bc I disabled root thru superSU even though its still rooted..

I think this is the baseline unrooted baseband......trying it out.

I would advise you to stay away from guides that are not on xda. Just because there is more knowledge here.

Just showing where I Got the file to recover from boot loop.... that guide isnt even for the right phone model...... read back as I added a bunch to my last post.
Trying to flash with the below file in the "phone" section so that it wipes the entire phone but it fails.... I've also removed superSU by using the option to "unroot" inside SuperSU..... whats going on? I have the PIT File in place, "phone bootloader update" checked or unchecked doesn't seem to matter..... and same for Phone EFS Clear......

This is the exact problem I have.....
From what I am understanding you can't write boot on Vrall4. So you would need to be on vraljb before being able to re lock the bootloader. I'm my head it makes sense but not sure how you need to go about it. I only looked at it real quick and I can't look into it right now. I'll check with you later and see what you have figured out. So post anything that you come across.
finally resolved it by erasing nand and flashing root66, then factory reset, then flashing one without the sboot.bin......
it took so many times - i dont think ive ever flashed this phone this many times before....... ugh what a pIta.... never rooting this phone again as its so freakin tempermental.
Or just don't unroot it. Problem solved??

please instruct me on all steps u took... where did u put the files and what u checked and what not.. i have the same exact problem except it gets stuck at Logo... i cannot go into recovery as well.
i have tried all the same files as u and all fail except root66 but it stays stuck on logo
as far as I can remember, take odin, put the pit file in the pit location in odin:
http://d-h.st/mKu
Then flash with root66...
http://androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390210501348163619
then see if u can get into stock recovery and do a factory reset and then go back into odin mode.... then tick nand erase and then use the alternate restore and put it in the phone section of the ODIN app and flash it....... of course this doesnt have the sboot but this was the only way i was able to get it back up....
if u are able to get the phone back up with root66, then stop there..... erasing the nand and not doing it right can brick it. i spent 2 days fixing mine and I must have tried flashing the phone at least 25 times... when I got root66 up and running I went into SuperSU app and went into settings and theres an option to remove or hide root. this may have helped. right now im finally on the latest OTA and it says official (not custom rom) in odin mode and in the about phone section. Hope this helps.
keep the back cover off the phone bc you'll be pulling the battery out if it gets stuck... good luck. FYI I always use the PIT file and that always seemed to have helped.

ah man... i can get PASS! on root66 but it still gets stuck at logo.. anything else i flash will just fail at boot.img nand write... think im just f*ck'ed dude..
my thread is here if anything... thank you !

Best bet is to erase nand and try flashing with the alternative rom and pit file at the same time...tomorrow I'll post the files I used as most mirrors are slow as balls..
