"Safe Mode" is enabled if the EFS partition of your device is corrupted.
Sometimes if you succeeded in fixing the EFS partition, you stuck in factorymode.

Thank's xda
Go here and flash a new modem, under the 'Phone' section of Odin.
Don't work
I install vilainrom 2.3 with CWM
And install modem KG3 with odin in 'phone'
I'm desperate
Help ?
My girlfriend is too desesperate
Sorry for my english i m french :/
Whats happening when you flash a modem with odin?
Have you tried to flash a modem with CWM?
Do you still have an IMEI number. Check in the phone settings->info->status
I had this problem to and this was because I "lost" my IMEI somehow. Anyway I could return to a generic IMEI. But still I do not have my original IMEI.
You lost your imei number, perhaps by playing with the unlock.
If you have a backup of your efs folder, then you can recover it. If you did not, then you will have to build a new nv_data.bin file. Good luck!
Ohh

They helped me to get a developer IMEI. Once my USB jig arrives I will send the phone back to Samsung in order to get a original IMEI.

I had exactly the same problem. read the threads I posted above.
Is your sgs2 rooted?
Basically unless you backed up your EFS folder your phone is hosed and will need to go back to samsung, flash a stock rom, use a usb jig to reset the flash counter and send it in for warranty repair.

You soft-bricked your device. These icons is the forced download mode. It means that you need to flash something to get over it. (and do NEVER put something in the phone section. You should have flash it in the PDA section.
i had the same screen yesterday.just flash the kernel and reboot.it should boot right into CWM.in CWM choose "reboot device" and it should be OK

Thanks guys fixed it used one click unbrick which worked really well. Tried flashing a rom and a kernel and it did not work before hand. With the one click unbrick it has allowed me to enter download mode again.

I'm happy that you could fix it

[Q] Fake emei after flash the 4.1.2 XXLSJ rom

Hi,
After flashing the ROM XXLSJ, my phone has now a fake emei (004999010640000 / 01). Despite this, everything works fine: network, data, WIFI ...
I have a backup of my EFS folder, but even when I restored it, nothing changes and I still have the same emei (not original).
I tried the GSII_Repair.apk, EFS_Pro_1.12.6_Release, flash the origin ROM with Odin, but these didn't repair my phone.
An other idea?

check the link below, hope it might help with ur issue
[GUIDE] Recover your IMEI in 9 steps
I have ever done this, but always this fake emei.
An other idea?
Too, when I use GalaxySimUnlock.apk, it says code product : not active and Version HW : REV_
Is it normal?
Not enough to restore efs. You need to make sure the files inside have the right permissions. The one responsible fo imei should have linux permissions 755

What are the good permissions if I use rootexplorer.apk?
And when I open this file (nvdata.bin) wih an hex software I can see this message (not active) at the 0080810 offset. Have I modify it?
Ypu can set it to 700 actually... Meaning rwx for the owner. Then reboot the phone.

Like boomboomer said more detail is needed their are many reasons why you lose imei one of the main ones is upgrade from efs v1 to efs v2 if you post the information that @boomboomer as asked for then he and others including myself will be able to answer your question better.
i just followed the procedure here:
http://www.android.gs/install-paranoid-android-4-6-beta-rom-for-samsung-galaxy-s3-i9300/
also this one procedure
http://beta.download.cyanogenmod.org/install

Have you tried to back up your ESF folder or use ARIZA Patch?

This actually worked! Thank you for posting this. That option in CWM was the only one that actually recognized the /data and removed the corrupted image/preloader I flashed previously using the S5 SIII rom.
Thanks again]
Hope it helps.
@HackT3k: if MG4 was working, you cannot go back without losing your telephone functions. Also ELLA wouldn't work.

Sorry I can't help, but was just wondering why you want to go back to ICS with it's risk of sudden death issues, as it seems like a lot of hassle?
