Hi guys, I`m new to this forum and I wouldn`t be posting this topic if I found a solution on other forums. If anyone had a problem like mine, or saw a thread before, I would appreciate if you pasted a link to the solution, or gave some kind of advice.
First of all, I`m new to rooting, custom roms, etc., so I guess that whatever I did, it was my fault. I got this Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100) as a gift, and since i already had a phone, I wanted to take a risk and take a shot at installing a lollipop rom. I watched a few tutorials, it seemed simple enough, so i thought why the hell not, but in the process something went wrong...
Sooo... here is what I`ve done:
1.) Rooted my phone with VROOT
2.) Flashed custom recovery with ODIN. I`m not sure which version of CWM it was, 6.0.4.5 I think (the file is named CWM KitKar compatible-I9100). When I flashed CWM, my phone didn`t boot up. All I got was a Samsung Galaxy logo and a yellow triangle for a few seconds before my screen went black again, but I could still access both recovery mode and download mode using the combination of keys.
3.) And then I did what I think screwed up my phone. I thought maybe flashing a lollipop rom through recovery would solve the issue (maybe the recovery is incopatible with my older stock rom and it`s the reason why my phone isn`t booting). So i flashed CM12 from galaxys2root.com. It`s called CM12.1S ROM for Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 (Andorid 5.1)
Not only it didn`t solve my problem, I still can`t get my phone to boot (now I get a samsung logo and a yellow triangle, but screen doesn`t go black after a few seconds, I left it in this state till the battery ran out and still nothing). And on the top of all things, I can`t get my phone to recovery mode anymore, all I get is the yellow triangle. I can still get it into download mode, but it doesn`t connect with my PC anymore. It charges, but I can`t connect it with ODIN anymore. And the weirdest thing is, when I connect it to PC, my other USB port goes crazy and disconnect my USB Wi-Fi adapter
What went wrong? Any advice is highly anticipated. :good:

i really typed a big explanation regarding the problem, but i have no F*****G clue how it got erased. am already sad n pissed, well recently i tried to plug in my usb for my Galaxy Tab 7 running Overcome 7 ROM and Kernal 4.00.
but it dint get recognized at all, it hasnt happend before, but now i have tried every possible troubleshooting technique including kies troubleshooting and couple of em off google.
nothing has worked, and lastly i tried to install ChopSuey-v.9.1-SYNERGY_GODMODE-signed Kernal, coz for someone els it worked, but i totally bricked my tab, i used some android based software as odin doesnt know my tab exists, my hardisk is unable to mount and complete the factory reset all tat is failing.
right now no usb connection and my tab doesnt boot, doesnt recignize in download mode either!!!! please someone tell me what to do. i cnt take it to the service centre, am guessing theyll know its rooted and with custom rom thus voiding the warrenty.
it is stuck at the boot screen, and if i switch it off, it doesnt switch off just reboots , ad its stuck.
anybody any help?
Hey people,
today i wanted to flash my friends S2 i9100.
First i pushed cwm etc on the SdCard, plus the newest AOKP 4.,2.1 nightly builds for i9100.
I rooted the phone with cwm touch and started flashing the rom.
its said "installing update..." about 6 Minutes...then suddenly black screen, phone off...
Now, no reaction at all, it doenst boot, it doesnt boot in DL mode nor CWM mode...
Anybody an idea?
i pretty guess its bricked, but is there any hope?
Would it maybe work with USB Jig?
Thanks!!
USB jig is always worth a go if unsuccessful it will need to go away to get jtaged. Has the phone still got power in the battery
sent from my Gt-I9300 or my Gt-I9100
Warranty▶usb jig▶jtag▶motherboard.
And with friends like you, who needs enemies.
I tried to install the cwm via ROM MANAGER and when its done, my phone resetted and from that moment it has been stucking at the Samsung logo for hours. ive tried removing and inserting the battery but it doesnt work; booting into recovery doesnt either: the samsung logo keeps flashing if i do that. My phone is 4.2.2 and rooted, i definately didnt mess anything, just let the ROM MANAGER automatically do its job and now it resulted in this. Looking forward to your replies guy, im desperate now.
Updated: my phone is in download mode now and idk how this works. It doesnt tell me what is it downloading or the process...
Go read the stickies in general on how to return fully to stock, read and understand before you flash.
Hey guys
Today i was trying to downgrade my s2 from 4.1.2 to 2.3.6 by Odin 1.85 program.
In the middle of the process i plugged off the phone accidentally.
So after that i turned off the phone and tried to power it on back but the phone did't boot anything even the os or the recovery or download mode, I got only a black screen.
And the tutorial i was following http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ModCPTUbIjA
So i hope if can anyone help me.
I would be very thankful
Service centre. Or if you want to try a jig, try one (very unlikely to work though).
Hello Guys and Gals ^^
First of all, sorry for my english, i hope everyone can understand my problem
Yesterday my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge shut down with an batteryload of 90%, after that it just entered a bootloop... :/
Since i've never had a CF or anything like that on my phone, i first thought of an hardware problem.
So i started reading here and some other forums, and tried as recommendet to flash the stock firmware via Odin3.
Now i can go beyond the Samsung - spondered by android or whatever it says - startscreen, the Blue LED starts and i enter the Samsung logo, which blinks for 3-4 times, just to reboot after that again... I also tried other versions of odin and other stock FW for my SM-G925F (Unbranded). Btw, also tried other USB ports, New Cables, Smart Switch... no Kies is running in the back while using odin.
Everytime i used Odin, it seems to work and my phone starts in the recovery mode with the little android guy, saying that its downloading sytem update... ERASING is the last thing he says after 20-30%, and the bootloop starts again. Also wiped cache and did Factory reset, but still no changes
I only used the 1 Part FW for odin. Hopefully that informations are enough for someone to help me out, but if there is a lack of informations, just ask for what you need to know further
I hope someone can help me, since i dont have the money for a new smartphone ^^
