I rooted my Mega and then flashed the stock Kernel back as I was still getting those two red lines during boot up. Anyone know why Kies and the OTA process still detect my phone as having been modified? Is there something else I need to do?
Thanks

Stop worrying about KIES and flash the ROM you want with ODIN.

Don't worry about it, all the latest firmwares are available for download, you can flash them through Odin whenever you want.

Has there been any new firmwares from the original ones that shipped with the phone? I got my phone a month ago and I think its got the latest firmware already?

Any more details?
Such as exact phone model (GT-I9100/T/M/...), firmware version (ROM/PDA/kernel), what rooting method have you used, etc.
If you can boot into download mode (Volume Down + Home + Power), then you can flash another kernel (such as CF-Root) with Odin to your phone.
Good luck !
GT-I9100 thats the only thing i know. i cant even open the phone only (Volume Down + Home + Power) is working i tried that but is not working. i used kernel method i tried almost ever thing but nothing works. im from asia

That happened to me. Make sure you do the volume down+ home+ power right to enter the download mode, then flash the CF or Siyah kernel with Odin v1.7 (not v1.85).
See if it boots from there. You may need to flash some firmware (PDA) with Odin once you see it boots.
Good luck
Thanks man its working now
help me please, frozen sgs2 after rooting

"Nothing happened" is not useful. Let me know the exact error and how is your phone working right now (booting, not booting...)
what Kernel did you flash?

Let's go slow.
You managed to flash something via ODIN? Or it failed?
Since you rooted it (same as first guy), I guess it flashed so Odin detects the phone and is able to flash, right?
Explain the exact problem. What are you trying to flash?
Try downloading Siyah kernel for Odin, or Dream kernel for Odin to flash it and make it boot. If not, download an official firmware and try.
Anyway, reply the 2 bold questions.

Ok, if it flashes, it's good.
If you have a i9100 (not a i9100G or whatever), flash this http://buildenv.dream-irc.com/android/?nav=display&file=63 via Odin and boot.

May I ask what did you do to root before it froze?
It's weird, but at least it flashes, so you still can flash an stock firmware to get back your phone.
Maybe this one (4.0.3 so you stay away from emmc harrd-brick bug and don't blame me in case it bricked) http://www.hotfile.com/dl/161662205/363dea0/I9100UHLPS_I9100AROLP4_ARO.zip.html
Good luck
what else can i do?
By the way, now that you have Dream kernel, try booting in recovery (turn it off, then volume up + home + power hold until it gets on, then release power until you get to recovery)
HELP! After rooting, I can't access my phone
I rooted my samsung s2 i1900g and followed the steps accordingly, I tried to install the jellybean rom, I thought I had succeeded cause it said so. But when it automatically rebooted after the installation, I can't access my menu anymore, it just freezes on the Samsung Galaxy S2 and the yellow triangle with the exclamation point inside it :crying: Please help me.. Your help will be much appreciated. Thank you. God bless.

You didn't mess up with a i9100 ROM instead of i9100G ROM or kernel for rooting, did you?
When did it freeze. After rooting (you made sure it booted afterwards?) or after Jelly Bean installation?
I flashed the wrong kernal and now when it boots up it's a black screen. Help? And yes i'm a noob.
The only thing it shows in the beginning is a battery.
When I go to system recovery it's Android system recovery.

Download a stock firmware from there. Any will do.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488
Download the Galaxy S3 Toolkit and install it and the Samsung drivers (found inside the toolkit folder once installed, under drivers)
Power off the phone
Hold down the Volume down button, the home button (middle bottom of the phone) and the power button until you are seeing the Download Mode screen.
Open Odin, from the Toolkit. Clock PDA and load the firmware you downloaded.
Touch NOTHING else adn click start
After that you should have a stock firmware.
Alternatively, you can download a stock kernel and use Odin to flash that in the same way.

Where can I find a stock kernal for T-mobile Gs3
There are no carrier specific kernels, just version specific. Imho, just install Siyah 1.5 or something to get your phone up and running, see what version it is, then download the stock kernel for it.

Big advice for you: go out of the international S3 forum!
I downloaded the Google Edition ROM last night and somewhere it went wrong. Now when I try to reboot, the yellow triangle comes on and I can only get back to the this ROM. Here is what it says:
System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest Verizon Wireless store for help.
I want to go back to the stock 4.2.2. How do I do that, thanks.
Mine or nitro's? And what did you flash AFTER the GE rom? Was it a kernel? Where did you get it?
That message only comes up if you foul up a kernel install or recovery install.
Both are fixable by an MDK stock kernel Odin package. I'm not linking it because it's in the how to root topic. So if you are here, you should already have it.

try pulling the battery. Put it back in. Hold volume up and power until it vibrates and then let go of power but continue holding volume up until you see the blue text in the left hand corner.
See what recovery it boots into, or if it even does.

So I am having a similar issue. I accidentally flashed a non-loki'd recovery. Now I am trying to figure out a way to install a loki'd recovery but cant figure it out. I need an odin tar of something... I may just go back to the stock mdk build and start from scratch with root.
I just can't flash any ROM at all, I can't even do a factory reset.

Have you ever used Odin before? If not try searching for how to use it.. It is pretty easy.. Download it your PC..Download Firmware HERE(ODIN download is there too)..put your phone into Download mode (Volume Down, Home and Power Button). Once you see it recognized in Odin, should be yellow or whatever color :COM pop up in one of the boxes, select PDA and select the firmware you just downloaded and hit START!
It will prob take about 15-20mins.. then you should be good to go!
But why would you want it?no root no tether all sorts of other problems
Hi,
My S2 was working perfectly and I put it on charge. About 15mins later I walked past and noticed it was displaying just the very first screen ie the one you see as soon as it starts and says Galaxy S2. Tried all the usual things like removing battery etc. I thought I might have a corrupted ROM so I have re-flashed it with Odin and whilst that was successful it is still at the same screen. I flashed it with the Australian XSA ROM. I can get it into flash mode but nothing else.
Anyone have any further thoughts?

OK thanks for the quick reply. Tried to get there but what happens is the android appears with his whirling blue bit....then it goes to black and the samsung galaxy s 2 screen again appears and thats where it stays. The only mode it will go into is the flash rom mode. In other words vol up plus power and home buttons does the above whereas vol down plus home and power gets me successfully to the rom flash screen.

The only other thing I can think of is to flash a .tar recovery from download mode(vol down+home+power).
Try the modified kernel from philz HERE You will need to match the kernel to the rom version, read carefully particularly the 2nd and 3rd posts
Just untick reboot on finish in odin and once you succesfully flash the kernel try to enter recovery from power off. Good luck

Yes, thats the kernel you need. Just get the .tar version of the kernel and flash in download mode(vol down, home, power). I'm hoping you can get a working recovery to give you a few more options. It may not work, as I suspect you have filesystem corruptions or something, but try that anyway
OK ...will try that in a few days ...again, thanks for the help
