[Q] Confirmation on whether this is bricked or not? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My friend handed me his samsung galaxy SII believing that I could fix his problem. He rooted it, and started going ROM crazy. Needless to say he broke it. I thought I could fix it, maybe it was a simple bootloop issue or what have you, but the phone won't even get recognized on my computer. I can set it into ODIN mode, but it won't get recognized by my computer, even though I downloaded the samsung usb drivers. It won't show up in ODIN, and It won't enter recovery mode either for some odd reason, so there's no chance of me loading something through his SD card. Whenever I turn it on normally it's stuck at a battery screen with a circle as if it were loading the battery, but it never finishes.
I'm pretty sure it's bricked, but I want to be sure before I tell him to buy a new phone.
The only information I can get out of it is that it's a SHW-M250K
thank you in advance.

mmmmm ask your friend if he converted it to an I9100.

Then Flash siyah
Try V5 first, see if it can gets you to recovery mode.
If it doesn't work, try V6.

I would, but as I previously mentioned, the phone won't boot into recovery on it's own, and it won't recognize on my computer

But you can enter DL mode, so that's your window.
You need to get your pc to see the device, we git plenty of tricks for that. Haven't you bumped into any of them?
Try other odin versions/usb cable/usb ports/clean kies uninstall and re install, try another pc and do it all over again.
You can also disable the antivirus if you like.

1) if ur PC is running Win7 then try running Odin with 'Administrative rights' and see.
2)Kill all Kies process running in the background.
3)Try connecting phone to Pc with the main USB port.
4)try diff v of ODIn (but still recomend u to go for v1.85)

Whenever I plug in the device it says it has malfunctioned and to replace it

That's good, try all the above again.
Remember to CLEAN uninstall kies (with your uninstaller pro or similar) and install it right back.
You can also intall kies on another PC and try it out.

[Q] USB jig to still use samsung warranty?

Hi guys im only new here,
Im not sure if i posted this in the right section feel free to move it MODs
Anyway I think i may have bricked my galaxy s2, I get a message that says "Firmware upgrade encountere...." ,after i tried to flash a stock rom back onto the phone after using lite'ning rom for a while, the process failed about half way through, I was using Odin, i can no longer get into recovery mode or clockwork recovery....I can still however get into download mode but my pc wont recognise the device through odin.....
I think it may be bricked
If the phone is bricked could i get a usb jig and reset the binary count to "0" and bring it to my authorised samsung repair shop, would they know i have rooted the phone and would my warranty still be covered?
Thanks for any help guys, i loved this phone and now its useless..
This should go into Q&A.
What stock firmware did you flash exactly? Stock carrier?

Hi I tried to flash an inscure.tar file, of a stock rom i found on a website i think it was KE7,.... sorry im a complete noob
No worries. That's why XDA is here for you to learn.
So you can get into download mode but Odin doesn't see your device. Seems like the Samsung drivers isn't installed on your computer. Try installing the device drivers manually. And see if Odin recognizes your device then.
EDIT: did you make sure kies wasn't running in the background when you're using ODIN?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Ok thanks for the help, kies was not running tin the background anyway, can you tell me how to manually install the drivers if possible?
Where can i get a stock firmware for a sgs2 sgh-I777? i loaded ics 4.0.3 and now my speaker and mic dont work during calls. Anyone have and ideas on how to get back to gingerbread? i have search for it and everywhere says it has been removed.
Try uninstalling kies and install again. Once installed plug in your device and see if it downloads the drivers that way.
I'll try and look for the drivers while you do that.

You'll have better luck in the at&t gs2 forums. You won't find your file here. Sorry

Sounds like a soft brick. I had problems flashing once (work computer was playing up) and it was complaining about needing an emergency firmware recovery in kies but I just re-flashed the rom when I got home and it was all good.
Hopefully it's the same for you.
The thing is I cant reflash because odin wont recognise the device, and i cannot get into recovery mode for a manual flash either :/

the galaxy s2 just shows the standard downloading screen with my binary count number etc as it normally would, but odin dosent pick it up, dosent show any sign of contact to the device, even windos says the device is malfunctioned, its an old dell with windows xp

Galaxy S2 problem, need advice please....

Hi guys,
need a hand here, yesterday I plugged my S2 to my PC but it wouldn't show up. I've done this many times before. I was getting the message saying 'usb device not recognized'. I then flashed the new ICS resurrection rom by moving it to my SD Card through an adapter. I thought maybe the usb problem would go away.
As my luck would have it the flash went badly it seems because i'm now getting the kernel panic message on my device. I can't get it to recovery mode but I can get it to download mode BUT Pc doesn't recognize the device still...
Could this maybe be a damaged port on my device?
Is it maybe a driver problem?
Any help would be much appreciated....
Anyone have any advice?

I plugged in a galaxy TAB and used KIES through my web browser to transfer items to the TAB. Does this interfere with the SGSII? I haven't used KIES with the SII
Instructions are to install Kies and connect the phone with the Samsung cable and drivers are found .It does not mention install another device and it will work so its a guess as to driver conflict due to Kies looking for the TAB .
Could be port on PC not a mainboard port USB on phone dirty or custom rom buggered phone .
I would flash stock GB rom via Odin .

Sorry, missed that you can't get to anything BUT download mode.
Try flashing an older Gingerbread firmware wipe package then.

Not actually true. It just needs to be a working micro USB cable. I use a generic micro USB cable (originally for a BlackBerry, I think) for all my flashing. Works fine.
this doesnt work guys, iv tried 3 different usb cables. nothing is happening it just wont connect. is it a way of installing a usb driver for my phone so it will reckonise my phone??

Yes i tried all that with no luck i just cant get my phone connected to my laptoo if i could I
could unbrick
Check for Windoze updates if you're unable to get your PC & phone to recognise each other after trying the obvious (different USB ports, different cables, different versions of Odin, making sure Kies/its processes aren't running in Task Manager on PC. Try *all* of these).
This has solved the issue for a few people over the last week or so. Failing that, uninstall Kies from your PC, reboot, redownload it, reinstall it, reboot & try again.
If that doesn't work, try a different PC.

This method not required to connect your mobile to PC.
Just need external sdcard and ics based recovery
If you are ics recovery version , we can come from this issue.
1, download any ics ROM ( stock based ) and copy to your external sdcard.
2, root the mobile using this way
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501719
[GUIDE] ROOT/UNROOT Stock ICS Firmware without flashing unsecure kernel
3, as per the above guide once you flashed cwm.zip , you will get cwm based recovery screen.
4, wipe system and cache
5, install the custom ROM from external sdcard
I believe this method will work for you.
All the best

I believe it won't since he bricked his device and can't even start the phone.
Do what MistahBungle said + make sure that you install Kies first so that you have the proper drivers for Odin.
i have tried this methed. copied all the files on to the sd card, inserted back into the phone put into recovery but would not read external sd card only internal comes up????
That's nice.
Now have you tried the other suggestions that have been made ? If your phone & PC can't/won't recognise each other, you need to fix that first. Forget about CW not working. It's not relevant. You're not going to fix this without an Odin flash and making that happen should be your focus/priority.

I'm having the same issue today, i flashed the siyah kernel beta and now recovery doesn't work and phone stays on Samsung logo.
I can get into download mode but pc says unrecognised device . It was working fine a few days earlier.
Unfortunately my Samsung USB cable appears to have vanished too but I don't see why my other cable shouldn't work as long as it supports data? Maybe the cable is the issue though??
Might be. Try the (many) suggestions on the first page. Any one of those could be/resolve the problem. In addition to those suggestions, you can also try uninstalling Kies on your PC, rebooting, re-downloading it, reinstalling it, rebooting & then seeing if your PC & phone recognise each other.
But definitely try those other suggestions first.

You will need all the files, make sure Keis is not messing with Odin so check to make sure it's not running on the PC.
Have had this happen to me - keep the files safe and you will fix pretty much any brick u manage to do. Mine was in CM9 - dropped and battery fell out had to do the full repair job to fix.

[Q] Rooting and flashing from stock issues

I've run a search through this forum and cant seem to find the answers I'm looking for. I am not new to flashing or rooting (except for this device) so this is very perplexing. I've tried to use odin to flash a custom rom, but it doesn't connect in download mode, however when the player is rebooted and on my home screen it connects to odin and says ready blah blah blah... Is this normal? My phones need to be in download mode to connect and flash, so what is going on here? USB debugging is active, I even allowed non marketplace apps in hopes that might do it, no go. Also can't seem to get Super One Click to recognize the device either.

Well, I have this experience while flashing my friend's phone and here what I've done:
-reboot my computer
-connect the phone, kill all kies related process (I'm using Windows) and start odin. If odin recognise your phone at this point, you are good to go else you might want to reinstall usb drivers.
-use full wipe odin files I found from internet (I got from the pirate bay with search key ics full wipe)
-got few files in that folder. Hope you know their function. Or you can ask here.
Hope this helps.

If Odin adds and removes quickly, this looks like your USB cable is dead, try flashing with another - Genuine- one
I had a similar issue while flashing my former SGS1: flashing process interrupted suddenly at 50%
A similar kind of thing happened to my phone as well when I was upgrading to 4.0.4 from gingerbread via Kies. The installation got stuck when the phone was in the download mode and I had no other option than to disconnect. But yours got stuck while using Odin. I would suggest you to flash the firmware again. I hope your phone goes into download mode now. As for the drivers, uninstall everything related to samsung from your PC and then reinstall it. DO NOT UPGRADE SAMSUNG KIES IF IT ASKS YOU TO DO SO! AS I TOLD YOU A SIMILAR THING HAPPENED TO MY PHONE. MY PC COULD'NT RECOGNIZE IT AND I REINSTALLED EVEYTHING AND IT FINALLY SHOWED SOME SIGN. MAKE SURE YOUR ANTIVIRUS IS FULLY DEACTIVATED WHILE YOU EXECUTE THE FLASHING OPERATION!

first of all, while your phone is disconnected from USB cable, can you enter download mode?if no, then try to find someone that have JIG. else, as leech4 said, this might caused by your USB cable. OR might caused by your USB port of your PC. as i said earlier, try to repair your USB driver (not sammy USB driver, but your PC's usb driver). flash using ODIN, and kill kies services from task manager as kies will conflict with ODIN later. here i give you LSJ link(thanks to ApriliaM3) in case you don't have. extract the zip and use all the PDA, PHONE and CSC file. you can even use PIT to re-partition your system. (tested and proven to be working). good luck mate.:good:
I already uninstall all usb driver , and install back, it still cant work. my hf will restart every 5 sec. that why i cant connect properly. any suggestion ?

Talk to Samsung not us.
Next time do some research into your model and info on how to flash it properley before jumping in and screwing your device up.

Wow, I suspect this kind of brick or what so ever others called it. I've read some where, and they talking about JIG. If what they mean is the same like what I understood from my electronic knowledge, then you have to find someone that have JIG to do further troubleshooting directly from your board, not via usb. Well, I'm just saying. You might want to seek for other solution first since it's your device.
