hi everyone
my S2 doesnt boots up...even when i tried this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458 ...
my S2 doesnt boots,when it goes into recovery it stays there for some seconds and then reboots to recovery and shut downs again for some seconds...
if the phone is not connected to the charger or usb cable it cant even go to recovey or download mode...when i go to download mode everything goes fine but when it wants to boot it doesnt thats why i think it maybe should be a software problem ...
if someone knows how to reborn my S2 please tell me ???

Try flashing XWLSD...search on Sammobile.
So let me get this straight:
You can go into CWM Recovery mode, but when you do, the phone reboots by itself?
And what happens when you go to download mode?! Kinda difficult to understand what you've written there :/
This sounds like you don't have much battery left, maybe leave it on charger for 20 mins and then try to acces either Recovery or download mode.
Also as far as my expertise says, you sholdn't have played with bootloaders.. (correct me if im wrong)
PDA is usually enough for flashing a new firmware via ODIN, atleast for me.

I had eryigit's ROM in my Player 5.0
I wanted to install the STOCK korean rom, as he said in his thread that its safe to flash.
I ended up in a bootloop, with download mode accessible.
I turned off the phone, because i had to go to the store :crying:
When i returned, i had black screen brick. No power on, no download mode, no cwm, no bootloop
How can i return it back?
PLEASE RESPOND

Have you let your Player bootlooping or in download mode screen when you went out?
Edit:
sorry, i read it now...
My first thought was for the battery, try to charge it, if you had only bootloops I can't imagine other problems. I don't think you discharged a lot your battery untill it can't be recharged more with stock recharger.

Why do you write "solved" in title?
Is it or not?
try to connect to the computer and check if you can get recovery or whatever. sure your battery is down because bootloop is hard to stop.
Only solution will be, next to go with the "resurector".
Who gave you the advice to flash the stock Korean Firmware?!!!!

I fixed my 5.0.
I used the unBrickable resurrector, it gave me access to both Download mode and Recovery, i went straight to recovery, Wiped Data and Cache, and the Korean firmware booted. The camera didn't work because the stock Korean was made for the 5mp, so i flashed the Stock XXKPF and it works now.
Also, now when everything works, i noticed that my player struggles when powering on. The power button works great when the player is powered on, but it needs good 30 seconds of hard pressing in order to get the device to boot.

Hi,
The S2 was stuck in a loop when booting up, I went into recovery mode which worked ok. During the setup the phone crashed and after leaving it for around an hour, pulled the battery as it clearly was frozen.
Now the phone want boot up, charge or enter the recovery mode again.
Any suggestions? I've tried my own S2 battery but no luck so i've ruled out a dead battery.
not sure if its dead or not... can u get it to the recovery mode (volume up+home+power) or download (volume down+home+power) .... if u can then its probably a bad OS and u need to flash a new rom... if it doesnt even boot into he two modes then its bricked i.e dead...

Hello folks,
I've a friend who's not a Technical person, however, he tried what he shouldn't have and now he has a totally dead S2.
The problems:
1. Phone doesn't switch on, nor does it goes to download or recovery mode - I tried it all.
2. When I connect a charger or usb - It does start showing the battery icon and while connected to the cable, if I turn it on it stays at the Samsung logo forever.
3. Since I don't know how to even get it to download mode, I'm unable to go any further.
What he did:
1. Trying to upgrade to JB, I think he messed up with the kernel by uploading one which may not be compatible as I've heard S2 has different variants. (He loaded Siyah 4.2)
2. Before doing this, he had connected to ODIN and was trying to load the official JB file but it always got stuck on one of the steps and that's when his phone got a bit sick - it would show "Please connect to KIES and try a recovery" kind of message. And this led him to do Step 1, which he shouldn't have.
I read a lot of posts, tried a lot of things but the phone never goes to download mode. And I've no clue how to try anything else?
So experts, I need your help here and I want to know if this phone will start at all? Can we somehow get it to work? If not at home, can the people at Samsung flash it or something?
Please help. Lots of thanks already!

try this method
if u have any mini usb cable cut it and peel of the skin and short the the 4th and 5th pin with 300k resistor or 100k*3 resistor and connect to mobile u will directly goto the download mode remove this pin and connect pc in odin mode and flash first with ics rom and if it is success and then try jelly bean try good luck
I have the same problem.
Today i tried fixing a bricked galaxy s2(yellow triangle with exclamation mark on boot) by reinstalling the stock firmware with odin and a pit file.
During the install i got stuck at NAND write start.So i took the battery out to get out of download mode and put it back in.When i tried going to download mode,it wouldn't start,charge,boot,anything!it's like it's completly dead.
Is there any other way to go to download mode without using a JIG?

Sorry to say this mate......you shoulda read some threads.....
If you had, you'd have realised.....
1) you start messing with pit files as a LAST resort
2) you NEVER pull a battery during an odin flash
3) when you saw the failure of 'nand write start' there was still the possibility to recover your phone....right up to the point when you pulled the battery.......
So now you have no recovery mode, no download mode and no on screen indication when you plug the charger in.....
Don't bother with the jig.....it's a long shot under the best of circumstances.....
There Is one thing you could try.....
Take the battery out. Press the vol down, power and home keys simultaneously......and WHILE holding the keys.....reinsert the battery....you will probably need help to do it.
It *might* kickstart the phone into download mode.....or.......it might not.
If it fails.....then Samsung warranty repair is realistically your only option.....Don't mention XDA or rooting or custom roms or odin or anything like that. Play dumb....say you were updating with kies, the phone switched off and wouldn't turn on again.......

Thank you so much!! I wasn't able to get a usb jig but managed to get it online with a quick delivery. It was my first time using a usb jig but it's too simple. I've a working phone with JB in it.

Thanks for you answer!Will a JTAG work?If i can find one?The phone is off the warranty.
The way I see it is that at the moment, you own a paperweight.....so best to *try* the cheaper options first....jtagging being the cheapest......
If that doesn't sort it....you have 2 options.....
1) replace the mainboard
2) buy an entirely new phone.....
Basically whichever option you choose from now on will have *some* financial cost........
Sent from my rooted, de bloated, stock JB powered S2 via PhilZ kernel and XDA developers app
A 3rd option is to buy a 2nd hand phone with maybe a cracked screen,and use the board from that.

Today I tried to root my s3 i9305 with odin. After I hit Start it stayed stuck like 20 minutes, I pulled the cable out and since than I can't get the phone to start. I even entered recovery mode and wiped everything out, still the phone won't start. "Downloading.. Do not turn off target!!!" If I remove the battery (can't shut it off other ways) and plug it in to charge, the same screen appears, doesn't even show the battery percentage. Please help!

You've mentioned that you can enter the recovery- did you flash a custom one, or still in sotck?
Second- if you can enter recovery, is it possible for you to re-enter download mode? you can flash a stock rom from there...
Did you flash the right file? You are posting in the i9300 forum, anything here can brick your phone.

Can you please give me a stock 4.1.2? Everywhere I look the file is on hotfile..
Ok, so today I flashed my phone with 4.3 (I9305XXUEML5_I9305EVRGML3_EVR.zip), when it booted I had no signal and IMEI was null. Fixed that with Param_Bin_I9305.zip . Works fine, but I have the same battery problem like everybody else, from 100% to 15% in a few hours. Can someone please give me a download link with stock 4.1.2 ? Don't want any custom roms. Thanks
You are still in the wrong forum.
Stock are saqmsung-updates and sammobile and a few others via Google .
Older roms that where on the deceased hotfile are no longer readily available as in many cases they where never reloaded .

try rooting the phone without odin, using the toolkit provided by the dev mskip.
( this would work for your i9305)

press thanks if i helped:good:
Yo guys well it eventually had to happen someday. Well i will try to explain what exactly happenend.
I had the Sensation 5 Rom on my device. which means i was on 4.4.2 the CWM recovery is 6.0.4.7
yesterday i decided to flash back to the Revolution HD Rom which is 4.3 if im not mistaken... i didnt change the cwm recovery.
There were no problems while flashing and the Revolution HD Rom was working fine until today when i decided to boot into recovery Mode.
(My hardware PowerButton is defect thats why i took it out of my phone so yeah there is no Power Button on my S3)
Because i cant use the 3 button combo to get into Recovery i used the App quick boot and used the App to boot into Recovery mode.
Now from there on my Problem begins. The Samsung Logo appears then the phone boots into Recovery but only for roughly 1 second.
The only thing i can see is the circle with a hat in the middle (the logo) and the cwm version on the bottom before the phone shuts down and everything starts again...its kind of a bootloop only going into recovery mode for 1 second and then starting a new.
Which mena si CANT use recovery Mode and i ALSO cant get into Download Mode somehow... ive tried holding the Volume down button and Home button and everything but i cant get the phone into download Mode so yeah phone is stuck in that Bootloop which i explained above.
Do u guys think that a Usb Jig from Amazon would actually work getting the Phone into Download Mode? or is it a lost cause and i should start looking for a new phone? ^^
i would appreciate any answers a lot !
No one who can help? :/

well if i try adb the device isnt shown as connected because well the phone restarts every 2-3 seconds.
If there is still any other way wich it could work without a usb jig that would be awesome
ive found a thread over google which said something about sp tools and scatter files....looked like it was possible to change the files of the phone while it was shut down....Does somebody on here know if this is possible?
