ya, my problem just like the title
my phone was stuck at samsung start logo
and i try to open recovery mode and it does not work it.
my phone already boot.
try to help me pls

No recovery mode means you only have one option - flash a stock rom in download mode (power/home/volume down) with Odin. Go to Samfirmware & get a stock rom for your carrier (not 4.0.4). How to flash ? Search. Been covered here thousands of times before (There's a thread stickied near the top of Q&A which should have the info you need).

I just had this kind of problem today flashing a new ROM. Had no choice but to flash a different kernel through ODIN. Just get a suitable kernel for your firmware in .tar.md5 format and flash it with ODIN, worked for me at least.

Wrong kernel

i install a wrong kernel and it will no longer go to the main window. stuck always in boot SAMSUNG GALAXY S2 please help people
Flash the correct kernel thru odin?
If you're not sure which one to flash, go for Siyah/Neak/Speedmod GB or ICS depending on which system you're on.
Flash any rom (compatible with the phone) via Odin, like:

Help mehhhh ;D soft brick/NAND corruption

Hey. After flashing the lastest codeworkx jelly bean, my phone wouldn't boot into recovery or turn on. By repartitioning, I managed to get back to stock gingerbread. However, while I was flashing CM9 in Odin, my computer blue screened and obviously the flash failed mid way. I have now tried flashing a boot loader , kernel and the re partition rom. However, only the kernel flash passed. The others stop at NAND Start. My phone is now stuck at the yellow triangle screen and re partition won't flash. Any tips ?

Firstly, you could try getting into recovery mode (Power button, home button, volume down). Then flash stock rom/kernel using odin
If you cannot do this then the other option would be to buy a USB jig via ebay for £2. The USB Jig will put the phone into download mode and then you can flash stock kernel/rom using odin
Stock Rom can be found here:

Recovery Modus is not working

Hello,
I have the following issue:
When I try to start the Samsung Galaxy S2 into the recovery mode with Volume Up + Power
it won't start. The samsung starts shows just Samsung Galaxy II boot screen.
If I release the buttons it goes of and on again and then trying to boot but there i have a boot loop
The only thing i can access is the download mode.
I tried to flash Philz Kernel with CWM, Siyhas Kernel and I tried to reflash the complete Samsung rom.
But also ends up in a boot loop I can't clear the cache or so because i can't access the recovery..nothing is working.
Before that I had Cyangogen.Mod 10,2 on this phone.
Any advise what else i could try to overcome this issue?
Thanks
If recovery is broken you only have one option - get a stock rom for your carrier from Samfirmware, flash it in download mode with Odin, re-root your phone, restore your most recent nandroid backup if you have one, or reflash the custom rom/kernel you were using & start again.
You haven't been using Rom Manager by chance, have you ?

Nope I tried already with stock rom. But it ends up the same.
I use Odin 3.07 and the I9100DXLSD_I9100OLBLSD_I9100DXLS8_HOME.tar flash as PDA one file.
But this didn't solve it. The recovery menu won't boot it is really strange.
I can get into download but this is all i have - nor flashing of stock rom is giving me back the recovery nor the flash of any recovery system.
CWM 6.3,0,6 - TWRP, PHILZ nothing
You need to keep trying to flash a stock rom because that's the only way you're fixing it. Search for Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread; try the stuff in that thread. In particular, flash a 3 part stock rom which will wipe your phone & more than likely fix the issue & enable it to boot normally.
***Gosh how to delete in this forum a doublepost?...
Hello,
I could fix it somehow. I just made in Odin a Nand erase all - let it take time and flashed the stock.
Now it works again without any glitch.

[Q] Samsung S2 Boot problems after CWM recovery 5.5.0.4

Hi Guys,
I have a samsung s2 with some version 4.1.2(I don't remember).
I wanted to upgrade it to JB 4.2.1
I went to some links which mentioned that I should install CWM recovery before going for flashing of ROM.
However what mistake i did is I tried to load GT-I9100_ICS_ClockworkMod-Recovery_5.5.0.4.tar on the phone using ODIN (which I think is an ICS version).
With this...problem is I am able to go to download mode, also I can go to CWM recovery mode with errors like unable to mount the sd card.
But the phone does not start.
It boots to the start-up screen and shows a yellow warning triangle below and shuts down.
I am not able to use the phone at all.
Need some help. Is there a way to go to stock firmware or to remove this CWM recovery to take it to whatever android stock firmware version it was.
Please help.
Download stock rom from Samfirmware, flash with Odin (How ? Thread stickied near top of Q&A has all the info you need). Clean slate.
Then flash custom kernel to root your phone & give you CWM. Flash custom rom/kernel of your choice.

I don't know the stock rom in my case. my SSN number is I9100GSMH. Can you please help.
In case if I want to upgrade from stock ROM to custom ROM jelly bean 4.2.2, then can you suggest steps for that or give me link for that...

[HELP] i9100 soft bricked

I tried to put custom recovery for i9100 via odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1118693
I wanted to flash unofficial CM11 to replace official 4.1.2
Flashed .tar.md5 now phone won't boot, but it can enter recovery and download mode. (Options ticked were Auto-reboot and F. Reset Time)
Then I downloaded stock firmware 4.1.2 and tried to flash. It stucks at NAND write start.
Then I tried to flash another kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270
Same thing. In recovery I did wipe data/cache, same thing, display remains blank on power on.
Please help. Thanks in advance.
You need to get a successful Odin flash of stock to give you a 'clean slate' to start again (with flashing a custom rom/whatever) from. Find Hopper8's 'Odin troubleshooting' thread & try the stuff in it, you should be able to get it done with the suggestions in the thread.
Thanks, it was phone from friend and it scared me to death
I flashed earlier Gio and realized I can flash kernel in zip, so that phone is now running CM11, but this info might come in handy when he wants to get back to stock. Also, I'm getting this phone next week, so it's good to know workaround if I run into a problem.
Yep knowing how to recover is a must before you start flashing stuff. If you're getting an S2, download at least one stock rom for your carrier/country from Samfirmware & keep it on your PC w/Odin in case you ever need it.
^+1.......and also make sure you have a working (official Samsung) USB lead......(or even more than one)
sent from either my Alliance powered S2 or my ArcoCM powered W via XDA Developers App
And make sure you have backed up your efs folder too. Something like ktool is good for this. Get it from playstore. And a good working nandroid is a must.
