Can you explain what is ariesv?

download mode
ok you have to search it on google you find it its easy
and bootloader too
but for the download mode you dont need this files
there are only for flashing
hold volume downbutton +center button + power on and dont leave it up to the phone swith on in download mode

For phone s5830i :
Vol up + Home + Power button = Recovery Mode.
Vol up + Vol Down + Power button = Download Mode.
Read GT-S5830C/i/M - ROOT, UNROOT, FW BACK-UP, FW RESTORE and FW UPDATE in general section carefully next time.

Thanks a ton !
I'm gonna try that now.

According to me i think so that your phone is not even rooted
so first of all Root your phone using Z4ROOT (i won,t be avalable in the market find it on google.
then from the market just find the Rom Manager and use option there to install recovery select p500 and it will install clockwork mod recovery 3.1.0.0
If you need to flsh AmronRa recovery just use the zip file provided by ciaox and flash it from clockwork itself

flashed an odin package ??
that happens on simply honey sometimes, going into recovery (GB bootloaders needed - vol down and power) and disabling voodoo fixes it, reboot and leave for 15 min then you can enable voodoo whenever you want

ODIN requires download mode not recovery. Can you access download mode with the buttons?
- If so, then just ODIN. Also, if you can get download mode maybe try to ODIN the GB-bootloader and try the fix above.
Good luck!

no i cant get into download mode either
1. Pull the battery.
2. Hold down both volume up + down buttons
3. Insert the battery.
4. Wait a few moments.
Enjoy download mode.
I was having the same issue as the OP, so my question is how do you disable voodoo? Anyone know?

Does the phone boots up fine though?
Recovery access is fine?
Might be just a mechanical issue with the volume rocker. Or, you might want to consider using a usb jig to force it to download mode.
You don't have Advanced Power Menu settings on your custom rom? Do you have download mode available when holding power button in (phone already powered up)?
If not, you can try this "Reboot ++ (Quick Boot)" free on the Market.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.krm.reboot
There are other ways, such as installing custom rom with APM, and flashing a matching CF-root kernel from Chainfire. This will give root, custom recovery, his own CWM manager app (allows rom nan-backups and boot straight into DL mode / recovery etc.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399
At least with these methods, there shouldn't be any problem.
If you are trying to enter DL mode from power off, ensure you hold ALL buttons in, and don't release. In this order; volume down + home + power on. Once prompted, release keys and volume up.

unable to reboot to recovery mode

hello there, guys and girls.
Im trying to root Galaxy SII, with stock ICS ROM.
I've downloaded the CWM and the Busybox Installer and copied both to an external SDCard.
the problem is that when I try to reboot the phone to recovery mode using Vol Up/Home/power combination, im reaching the "downloading, dont turn off your phone" message which wont progress any further. There is no option to choose to "apply update from external storage" as required.
please help!

Samsung Galaxy S2 has three different boot method.
Normal boot method done by using power button.
You can also hard shutdown the device by holding the power button for 8 seconds, so you don’t need to do battery removal method.
Download mode is necessary for you to flash ROM or kernel.
To perform this boot method, you need to turn off the device.
You need to press and hold volume down, home button, and power button simultaneously.
If you succeed, you will see green download mode on your device.
You can also get into this mode by using USB Jig. You can get the Jig from ebay for few bucks.
Recovery mode, is used to boot recovery such CWM, of course you need to flash the recovery first.
By flashing CF kernel, actually you get rooted devices and also CWM recovery.
To enter this mode, you need to turn off the device first.
You need to press and hold volume up, home button, and power button simultaneously.
If you succeed, after the Samsung Galaxy boot, you will enter the CWM recovery menu.
If you installed custom ROM there should be a reboot into recovery options to get into CWM, so you don’t need to press the button combination
check Q&A for answers about rooting and everything
hope it helped

im trying to follow the guide i've found in order to root the phone with stock, unrooted ROM.
If you reeeeally wanna go to recovery.. Go to download mode, root it.. by then you can go to recovery with the 3 button combo, if not, u can always go to recovery via cwm.

Since we are somehow on the topic of recoveries, how do I reboot into cwm recovery manually? I press vol up, home and power button but it reboots into normal recovery. Any help?

My Galaxy S2 blocked on boot

I wanted to install a new rom,I reboot my phone and I installed something what I found on my micro SD,I confused something with the file of new rom,and now it doesn't start, only what I see after 1 hour is the image of boot (Samsung Galaxy S II, like that image http://www.gophoto.it/view.php?i=htt...ootingsgs5.jpg)
What can I do to start my android ?
Sorry for my little english
it's pity....it's pity that you post your noob question in general forum.
about your "problem": do a wipe/factory reset from recovery, first of all. if your problem won't be solved then reflash any other firmware through odin
take your battery out, put it back
hold:
volume up + home + power, when GSII logo shows up release them, it will enter recovery mode
reflash your rom, kernel and stuff
if nothing works download odin (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278)
hold volume down + home + power, will enter download mode
from there you can flash stock ROM using odin. Take a look at the guide above.
post with more details next time.

afaik if it the screen turns on, even only for SII logo, you can enter download mode.
with the phone turned off hold vol down + home + power it will show a warning screen.
if you can't do that then take to samsung repair center, they know how to do it.

Man...U'd be kind as people tried to help u
Be sure u press buttons at phone off : power+home+vol down (together at same time & release just pow button while i9100 splash screen appears) >>>> it'll enter to download mode then u can advance to flash with Odin3 1.85 (this is the most compatible Odin w/ i9100).
if u couldn't access d/l mode by as per above make sure u've adb in ur PC, connect them by USB then type in adb terminal "adb reboot download" (without quotes) to enter d/l mode.
Neither means u've hardbricked ur phone..
