So basically my S2 died on me randomly, but i was able to boot into recovery so i tried to restore my backup. It then said 'MD5 mismatch', I then tried to install a rom but it said installation aborted, I then booted my phone into download mode, loaded a stock rom through odin, it said successful but it won't go past the boot screen, it just hangs. I tried flashing another stock rom but the same problem occurred.
Any form of help is appreciated
OK now you flashed back to stock rom, boot into stock recovery then do a factory reset/wipe data. Be sure your not dangered by the emmc bug on 4.0.4.

Hello,
I was on CM10.1, I wanted to Flash Omega v23, so I have done all what INDIE said, I booted into recovery, Wipe DATA/Factory Reset, I flashed Omega but during instalation, it STOPED SUDDENLY and it said "Cannot acces to /recovery" or something like that, so I wanted to Reboot, it said Fix Root, I did it but now after rebooting, I have acces to recovery & download mode and I'm stuck into Bootsplash (Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100).
I tried to flash a Stock ROM via ODIN but it's stuck on cache.img
I also have a backup that I made when I was on a stock ROM.
My question is: If I restore my backup, will this solve my problem ? If not, how to solve it ?
PLEASE HELP ME !
I have samsung galaxy ace 5830i
yesterday i restarted it but i got stuck on bootloop where it repeats the samsung logo
my phone was rooted and i did increase the internal memory using link2sd and stuff.
i tried everything from factory reset to reflashing the stock rom but the boot loops is not fix.

if you have custom rom or stock rom coocked the kies cant help you.
do these solutions in order :
>>>solution 1 : in recovery do facotry reset and install rom , wip cache and dalvick. the first boot take time. so wait. if not worck try to format system before flashing rom.
>>>solution 2 : factory reset in recovery then install stock firemware by odin after flash is complete enter to recovery and do factory reset again. the first boot take time. so wait.
>>>solution 3 (danger, do it only if you give up if you dont have any other solution) : flash stock firmeware with odin but cheek nand erase all in odin, after flash is complete enter to recovery and do factory reset(compulsory).the first boot take time. so wait.
use latest odin version.
good luck.
Hi everybody, I have a serious problem with flashing my i9300. I tried flash stock rom 4.1.2 by several methods (Kies, Odin 3.07) but nothing worked. Each flashing procedure runs corectly, but after reboot occurs samsung logo loop unless I remove the batery. I can get into download mode or recowery mode, I tried wipe reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache but nothing is worked. Thx for response guys.
Try 4.3 stock rom. I flashed via Odin and factory reset via recovery mode, and it works!
Thx It works.
Get the stock ROM from:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300
Yes...it's work.
Thank you very much.
A few days ago i got the massage "uid inconsistent feeling lucky" and after a couple of minutes my phone restarted and got stuck on the flashing samsung logo, i was on an official 4.3 rom rooted.
I decided that it's time to move to Lineage OS 7.1.1. I tried to enter twrp recovery that was installed on my device but got stuck on the twrp splash screen and after 2 seconds it reboots the device, i installed 7 different twrp versions 2.8.5.0 - 3.0.2-2 with odin but every time with the same result, stuck on twrp splash screen
So i tried to install a stock rom, after odin finished and the device rebooted it got stuck again on the flashing samsung logo and when i tried to enter the recovery that should be the stock recovery i got an android image with the red triangle and the phone reboots, when i tried to install stock recovery with odin it got stuck on file analysis.
After all that i downloaded cwm recovery and philz recovery and those were the only recovery i can access, i can delete cache and dalvik cache but when i try to wipe data/factory reset when i select the option the phone immediately reboots.
I also tried to install the Lineage OS 7.1.1 official rom with cwm but got an error massage "can't install this package on top of incompatible data. please try another package or run a factory reset".
Please help me
Is the phone encrypted? You confirmed the model # of the phone by booting into download mode?

Does the phone reboot when you put it into download mode?

When flashing a stock ROM, Odin gives no errors? Are you able to boot into stock recovery right after flashing a stock ROM?

No errors in odin, when i try to enter stock recovery after flashing stock rom there is an android picture with red triangle and the phone reboots, the only problem that i had with odin is when i tried to flash only the stock recovery it got stuck on file analysis, in my first post i wrote all the things that i've tried already and what works and doesn't work
I'm at a loss as to what the problem could be. Have you thought about taking the phone to a cell repair shop to see if it can be flashed via JTAG?

this would be my last resort, where i live a shop would charge me more than the phone is worth to repair it, is there a way to factory reset with a software or adb with a phone that can't boot into the os?
The only way I know of is using stock or custom recovery.

can it help if i check the re-partition or erase all nand option in odin?
You need a pit file in order to repartition.

The error you got means you need to wipe the /system partition before you flash Lineage. As for why TWRP isn't working, I'm really not too sure unless the image size is bigger than the actual recovery partition size.

The PIT file depends on the phones model or on the rom version or both?
File depends on model number and the amount of internal memory. I think the 9300 has 16 GB.

the only recovery i can use is cwm or philz, but when i try to wipe data\factory reset the phone reboots right when i select the option and does not complete the wipe\reset, i wiped cache, dalvik cache and system partition, but when i try to install the rom it said incomplete data and i should do a factory reset and i can't do that, i had the latest twrp working before all of this happened

Thank you, i will try to download the file and re-partition in odin, that is the only thing i haven't tried yet
Is it possible the phone has 32 GB?

Noooo... Dont repartition it. You haven't had anything that says it needs it yet.
Flash the stock firmware twice, back to back then see if you have more control.
If you have a btu device (unlocked international) i can give you my reliable files to flash.
All you'll need for now is the firmware file. Flash it and as the phone reboots (blue pass in odin) you need to get it into download mode again without going to the os, if you miss it just pull the battery and go again.
Once in dl mode for the second time, flash the firmware again. When the phone reboots, before it goes to os, get in into RECOVERY MODE and try to factory wipe it. If successful allow it to reboot again as normal to os.
If the factory wipe fails or the phone still hangs at the samsung logo you have bigger issues.
