[Q] Smashed S2 - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
Friend of mine did this to his phone

Is there any way I could get data off it, it still powers up but drivers are not recognized on PC, tried kies, mobiledit but usb device is not recognized. Think Bluetooth and wifi are also switched off.
Anything else I can try or is it a lost cause?

I can now see the phone in Kies but it is locked due to a password needed on the device, no screen means I cant put in the password arrgggghhhh!!!

You can try to install custom recovery and then mount it to your pc if the display is not broken or you can look at the picture could be risky cause you maybwipe all data. Or you need to replace digitizer and the display

At least I now have a spare battery for mine.

[Q] Is my Vibrant "Bricked"?

Hello, all.
Well .. I don´t know where to start, but I know that I am very sad. Last Saturday, I went first use ODIN to return the original version of Android on my gadget. Apparently, everything went according to the tutorials forum and XDA initially ODIN began updating.
I don´t know why, at the first stage of the upgrade, the Vibrant display stayed with color pink and stopped updating. I waited for about 30 minutes and nothing changed Vibrant and not restarted.
I decided to restart it manually and got the screen below.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
From that moment on my computer (Windows 7) did not recognize the more Vibrant via USB. Likewise, I can not leave it in download mode (I've tried everything). It is as if the USB does not recognize anything...
I ask the more experienced here: You can still retrieve it? I'm in Brazil and apparently they will not support this case, even though I pay for it.
Please can you help me?
Sure.
I got the same problem with U. The same screen, can't enter the download mode. Is there anybody know how to solve this problem>? One more question, can T-mobile repair that?
Same Here
I got the same screen when I tried to flash back to stock from eugene373's froyo rom. Any help for us noobs would be really appreciated.
Any one have this problem pm me im sure I can walk u thru this

[Q] Vibrant Won't turn On!

Hi, I have a TMobile Vibrant ROMed and rooted here, and it won't turn on. the soft keys do light up when its plugged in, but that's all it does. The battery is charged for sure because I do have an external battery charger that tells the charge of the battery.
This started happening about a couple days after I flashed AOKP, the odd thing is, prior I had CM7 flashed and it randomly bootlooped on me while using it (read: I was not installing roms/kernels, just regular day usage and it bootlooped)
This time with AOKP, it doesn't turn on at all! If anybody needs further information, I'll be on all day to provide it. Can anybody please help me?
UPDATE : I'm starting to think the screen is dead; I was able to flash stock somehow, and I can hear the unlock sound, but obviously nothing is on the display :/.
You probably already know that you can check for vital signs by plugging it into a PC and checking for a USB connection. You might even be able to get an adb login.
If the screen is dead, you could maybe use it as a... webcam? Wifi widget? Paper-weight? Or spare parts?
Good luck with it. It does sound like bad hardware.

I have exactly the same problem, the micro USB port of the device is damage, you'll fix the problem by changing it
How much is it to fix? Did you do it yourself and was it easy?
Try bending the contact pin inside your phone's charging port upwards with a toothpick. Cured the eternal charging on my s2.

[Q] Broken Phone Screen. Cannot Log in. How to control the phone ?

I have a Xolo Q700 and I broke it. The screen is cracked and I can't type my password.
By default, USB Charging mode is on ... so no use connecting it to my pc. I also tried rebooting but the USB charge stays default.
How do I control my phone now coz the OS is working fine. I cannot login.
All my data is in phone memory. How do I atleast get that data ?

[Q] S2 stuck on warning sign, no download mode[i9100G]

Hello, I got an S2 phone from a friend with a problem, it boot-looped showing only the Model and logo(Where it says i9100G), I tried flashing some ICS stock firmware, it stuck on the NAND write line for a while then failed.
I tried entering Recovery mode before, but it didn't work, maybe I didn't try hard enough but I heard on other threads that deal with soft breaking that this might mean a problem with NAND r/w (Don't know much about this problem).
Anyway, after the NAND problem, the phone doesn't work as it used to, it now only shows one screen with a phone and PC icons(See attachment or link), with a warning sigh in the middle, I thought maybe Kies can handle it, but when I connect the phone while running kies it just keep on trying to connect to the phone and I don't think it will stop for a long while, so I can't use the help of the Kies emergency recovery for now.
