Hi all!
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 which I since a week cannot start. It get stuck on the black/white samsung logo. I cannot enter recovery mode, nothing happens when releasing the power button after pressing volumeup+home+power buttons. I can however reach download mode. I'm not sure what caused this problem, one day I just couldn't start it. I read on forums that many similar problems seem to have occurred when upgrading android but I'm not sure this is the case here (unless the phone made an automatic update while I was asleep). I'm not sure what version of android I'm running, but I'm pretty sure it is at least the ICS.
I would like to hard reset my phone if possible. It seems to be easiest through the recovery mode which I cannot get into.. I read things about Odin, connecting the phone to the computer and downloading android to the phone but haven't quite grasped it. Could anyone explain this option for me or point me in the right direction? Are there other options?
I would appreciate any help, especially since my 1-year warranty expired a month ago!
Best regards,
Marcus

Sounds like the symptoms of a NAND RW corruption. Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
Hi Marcus,
I had the same problem few days back.
If it's not broken by you trying something fancy, the best solution is to take it to service centre. If you have rooted your device, had installed some custom firmware or are not willing to visit the service centre for some other reason, please read ahead.
All I did was,
Installed USB connectivity drivers through Kies.
Installed ODIN 1.83
Ensured that Kies or any of its processes are not running in background.
Downloaded the official SGS2 firmware
Flashed the firmware through ODIN.
It took around 10 minutes for the full process and I was having my mobile up and running. Using ODIN sounds scary initially if you haven't used it. I have slowly started gaining confidence in it after using it a few times.
Please note that though the process is well proven to be safe, there is still an amount of risk involved.

Download a siyah kernel(like v4.0.1) .tar file and flash through odin.
See if that makes it boot/lets you into recovery.

I appreciate all of your answers!
Adarzannh: I tried the guide but when flashing using odin I get stuck on:
<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!
both when trying to flash the recovery package and the kernel. Any clues?
mananbdesai: where do I find the "official SGS2 firmware"?
theunderlining: is it enough just to flash a new kernel or do I afterwards need to flash ROM too?

A couple of things..ensure KIES is not running on your computer in the background. If possible delete it completely. Also ensure your phone is connected to a USB port directly on the computer and not via a hub or to a USB port on a keyboard or something. Odin is a finicky s/w..so..
Also, try different versions. If v1.85 doesn't work try v3.4

Go to sammobile.com or a sticky in the Original Android Development section here..has links to all the stock firmwares.

Lol at underlining. if you flash a custom kernel like siyah, you'll be rooted and get CWM. Using that you can install a custom ROM.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
And youll be safe from the 4.0.4 brickbug if you flash siyah.
You flash a kernel for various reasons like it has emmc cap disabled,you can tweak it etc.
You can flash siyah kernel and stop there.Or you can move onto a custom rom.
Whatever,when its done-backup your efs and make a nand backup.
And yesterday I was downgrading my wifes phone onto 4.0.3.I was using odin and kept getting "failed".After 3 attempts I realised I hadnt put the phone into download mode..........how stupids that......lol
hi there, just wondering, after Flashing the stock firmware through ODIN, do you lose everything in your phone? i need to get all the notes that I have in my phone (notes from the samsung stock apps). I dont have any external sd card in the phone. thanks in advance for the reply.

Hi there sir,
Has the problem solved ? Care to share the solution ?
Thanks.
i had the same exact problem, i tried flashing with odin n stock firmware but stuck in NAND write start, i didnt try flashing with PIT & repartition though, i couldnt be bothered anymore, so i took it to samsung service plaza, they told me the problem is in the main PCB (hardware issue), so all they did was replace that n it got fixed! i didnt pay because it's still under contract/ carrier warranty
Can you get into downloading mode? It's by hold and pressing volume down+home+power

I had a similar problem, stuck at boot with Biftor v12, which happened after I tried to update SuperSU binary through CWM/TWRP. I don't know why it stuck at boot and why it wouldn't reboot to Recovery. Download mode was still working, so I had no choice but to flash new kernel through ODIN and see if it works.
So if your symptoms sound similar to mine, here's what I did to be able to boot again:
I REPEAT, SIMILAR TO MINE. MY SOLUTION MIGHT NOT NECESSARILY APPLY TO YOURS.
1. Download a suitable kernel in tar.md5 format. I used PhilZ-cwm6 v4.93.6 for XWLSN firmware (see OP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270)
2. Download ODIN, if you don't have it, found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189539
3. Once installed, boot your phone in Download mode by pressing Vol Down+Home+Power together until you see a warning dialog. Press Vol UP to get into download mode.
4. Make sure ODIN is running, and NO KIES processes are running.
5. Connect your phone with USB cable to your PC.
6. In ODIN, you should see a COM port with yellow background.
7. Click the PDA button ONLY.
8. Select the kernel file you downloaded.
9. Press Start and nothing else.
10. If everything went as expected, your phone should reboot after a while with a working Recovery.
Only do the steps if you are absolutely sure. This worked for me, and I hope it gives some tips for your problem as well.

Hi Flash-IS-Bright
I have the exact same problem with SuperSU on my rooted Galaxy S2. I updated the SuperSU app, and when I opened it, it recommended me to update the binary, I selected the CWM/TWRP option and then my phone tried to reboot but is now stuck. It can only access download mode.
In doing the process above, you only flashed the kernel? Did this totally work? And all your apps/messages were left intact on your phone?
Any help is appreciated.

when ur updating the binary u should always choose the 'Normal' thing instead of the 'CWM/TWRP' one ma8
if u flash a kernel it will not delete anything on ur phone, all u have to do is to select the right kernel like 'Philz' for example (if ur on a stock JB firmware) and flash the same through 'ODIN' and reboot ur phone

Thanks for your help. I've originally had Jeboo 1.2 kernel on my phone and tried to reflash that again through Odin. It passed, however I'm still encountering the same problem of the bootloop.
Would flashing a different kernel help? I'm on stock JB firmware but with a Jeboo kernel. I am happy to try another kernel (if that would not brick my phone)
Do you have any other suggestions to help me solve this?
Again thanks for your help

You could try flashing hawkerpaul's kernel wiper first and then install another stock kernel like PhilZ or Apollo, and see if that helps.
Neat Rom lite,suddenly struck in boot loop after 1 month of operation.
Dear All,
I have installed the "I9100XWLSZ_NeatROM_Lite_v5.0.1" custom rom and after 1 month of successful usage, today suddenly the phone was dead.(probably due to autoupdates over wifi) . I tried to reboot, but didnt. Tried to restart but got stuck in the logo screen with yellow triangle.
Tried to enter recovery mode, but no use. Only download mode is possible.
Tried to flash the stock rom using odin, but no use, Nand write failed.
Can somebody help me how to come out of this situation. Shall I install a different kernal and see?
Regards,
Maka11

try hard reset for your phone
Greeting Devs & thanks in advance.
My t959 got bricked where it wouldn't go passed the vibrant screen, found a post called ** [GUIDE] FIX AND RESCUE YOUR VIBRICK + ODIN SUPPORT! N00b Friendly ** followed instructions on it to take it back to stock with Odin, rigth now my phone is running Android 2.1 eclair, rooted and with CWM Recovery version 2.5.1.2. im trying to flash a custom rom and when i go into recovery mode and try to do it, the progress bar at the bottom comes up and when it is at about 10% the phone reboots back to the vibrant screen and wont go passed it so i have to take the battery out put it back in and get the phone into download mode to retake it back to stock using ODIN, so i guess is safe to say that my phone gets bricked whenever i try to install a custom rom so im stuck with eclair wich blows specially after having 4.2.2
my phone got bricked the first time when i was trying to update the rom from SlimBean 4.2.2 Build 7 to Build 8 (had done the process many times and never had a problem) did the usual, put the Rom and the Gapps .rar files in the sd card and performed wipe data/ factory reset only this time i went into mounts and storage and wiped everything that was under there as well (dont know why) so when went to flash the rom it was no longer on the sd card (cause i wiped it) so rebooted my phone and it got stuck on the vibrant screen with i fixed already and my problem now is the one mentioned above
i have browsed the different forums and have tried many different methods to try to fix it for example: have brought it back to stock with Odin also with AIO Vibrant Toolbox and even tried UVKB5_Stock_Heimdall-One-Click wich is a froyo 2.2 that comes with CWM recovery with voodoo lag fix and root. even though all these methods work as far as bringing the phone back to stock i still get the same problem when trying to flash a rom, i also have installed CWM through Rom manager and also through the update.zip file i think im doing everything right and have tried multiple forums yet havent been able to find a forum about this specific issue so decided to create this thread as a last resource
this is my first post and id really appreciate any assitance and if any additional information is needed ill be happy to provide it, thanks in advance

What version of android are the ROMs you are flashing?
are they above or below android 2.3?
and on the same note, do you know what bootloader you have?
some roms 2.3 and above require gingerbread bootloaders.
(an easy way to find out is by figuring out which button combo you have to use to get to recovery)
you might also try re-flashing recovery.

Try flashing a 2.2 rom or below.
if that works you probably just need to flash GB bootloaders before flashing the 4.2 rom (See Below)

Flash the rom again instead of going back to stock when it hangs. You have to flash JB roms twice most of the time when you are on stock 2.1, the first flash simply upgrades your recovery mode. Pull the battery after the first flash and boot back into recovery (should be blue now) and flash the rom again.

Glad you figured it out. Just so you you know, your phone says GT-I9000 because you flashed gingerbread bootloaders. They provide better button combinations to recovery and download modes, much easier than stock combos.

I have the same phone myself and got into similar problem while trying to install 4.4 on it. Best thing i can think of is installing the stock ROM. Sadly xda doesnt have a thread on this nor will i be able to provide you with outside link at this stage. but i can say google for "S7262XXUAML4_S7262ODDAML1_INU" and select a site which shall give you the instruction. Primarily you will need Odin 3.07 or above and Stock ROM "S7262XXUAML4_S7262ODDAML1_INU". Wish you luck

im using cm12 archidroid 3.5.14 and decided to update to 3.5.15 version last night. but the update didnt went well, something went wrong and i got 'recursive' error, and it started to boot loops.
i tried so many solutions, i odin this and that and nothing worked. i downloaded cwm 6.0.0.47 i think, and managed to install the AD rom, but now im stuck at languange selection, i cant select anything because screen support isnt working
what do i do now?
Samsung S3 i9300
You did "odin this and that"? That's never a good idea. Just saying...
I would try to flash latest AD again but with a proper up-to-date recovery e.g. latest TWRP after making a nandroid backup.

Well then, if you already flashed stock rom via odin, your data is already gone. Make sure your phone is working on stock first now. Please be aware that the first boot after each rom flash might take up to 15 min or so because the cache has to be built at first boot!
You can find the link to TWRP recovery in my signature (see My Gadgets). I suggest your read the tutorials that are linked there also for more information.
thanks again, glad to hear there's still hope. i will do as you advised.
So, in order to get stock firmware flashed and running, can i use twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar from your signature?
1st i odin the twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar, and then reboot into download mode, and odin firmware stock?
in that order? i havent done this in a long time, i've been using AD for so long without any problem, i dont really exactly remember how. i just concern about the touch screen not functioning, i really hope no hardware failures. i never experience anything like this, even in recovery mode, the touch screen doesnt work, i had to flash entire process using up/down and power button
right now i havent done anything since the last attempt ( flashed stock rom, and stuck at samsung logo )
currently., im charging the battery, will try get it up and running after the battery is full
thanks mate
