Unable to enter downloadmode on SII HD LTE

Hello everyone
I have a SII E120L with
Kernel: 2.6.35.11-120L.EL22.1023
Baseband: E120L.EL.0843LT
with the following problems:
- I can' t connect to a network
- I can't enter download mode.
I tried:
- upgrade via Kies: get your device does not support uipgrade via Kies
firmware version: E120LKRFB05/E120LKRFB05/E120LKREL21/E120LKREL21 (LGT)
- usb dongel to enter download mode: doesn't work
- when I connect the usb cable; and do the 3 button procedure when the green battery appears, then I can enter download mode, but the screen turns blank aftyer 2 seconds. I can see in Odin that the USB port is detetected but flashing results in an error (see pic1)
- I tried adb shell reboot download. This results in the download mode, but disapears after 2 seconds.
- I tried to root the device via DooMLoRD tootlkit but this results in an error:
failed to copy 'files\Superuser.apk' to '/system/app/./Superuser.apk': Read-only file system
I'd would like to be able to
- flash new firmware
and/or
- root the phone and so I can restore an efs.img file on the sdcard.
Can someone help me please?

Dude... he has an SII HD LTE. (E120L) Which has different CPU/SoC/GPU than the I9100.
I am about 95% certain I9100 firmwares will NOT WORK on his phone, and may, in fact, make his situation worse.

First off, do NOT follow that guy's advice above, unless you want to brick your phone.
Second, try reading/searching this thread. I myself did a quick perusal of it and found that someone in it mentioned that they were able to root their E120L or S by flashing Tegrak kernel. Search around for it.
@vdbergh, sorry, I noticed you already posted in that other thread.
About your issue; are you plugged into a mainboard USB port on your computer? Using a USB hub or keyboard passthrough can cause issues. Have you tried different cables? It could be a bad cable.

ctomgee, thanks for the effort to try to help me!
I am connected to the main USB port of my computer. I also changed the cable. Result is the same.
I think something is wrong with the firmware. Here's the history.
I had a perfectly good working phone. Then I wanted to flash the TL1.3. Something went wrong in that process and stupid me, I reseted the phone. Since then the phone was bricked. I tried everything but no success.
I sent the phonbe for JTAG repair. They manage to reanimate the phone, but it was impossible to get a network. All the est worked fine but I could't make phonecalls.
When I started Kies, it said to upgrade the firmware. The kernel upgrade went fine but the baseband upgrate got an error. I had the posibility to do an emergency recovery in Kies, but as soon as I start that, Kies doesn't recognice the phone.
Flashing new firmware via Odin doesn't work eiter.
The only small possibility I see is to restore a backup efs.img I found. But to do that the phone needs to be rooted. I can't do that via Odin so I tried the DooMLoRD tootlkit to root the phone. This doesn't work because I get an error that the filesystem is Read-Only.
Maybe I could root or upgrade the firmware via the recovery mode (apply update from sdcard option)?
So I'm very desperate now. I just don't know what to do anymore.

I would get the latest firmware available via CheckFUS. (if you don't know what that is, just google it) Then flash it via Odin. Let's start there.
Use gingerbreak in my signature, it doesnt even need a computer, just put it on your sd and install it, then let it do it's magic

Thanks for the tips cabloomi...
The checkFus didn't work. ( the SHV-E120L (SII HD LTE) is not in the list).
I tried the Gingerbreak, but I do't think the E120L is supported yet. It run's for ever without rooting the phone

My apologies... I didn't double check to see if the E120L was in Check FUS. Hmm. I'm not sure where you can get stock firmwares for the SHV-E120 series, unfortunately. (at least, on English language websites) Sorry dude, wish I could be of more help.

Thanks for your help ctomgee, I realy appreciate it.
I manage to root the phone by flashing the Tegrak-Kernel-Build-33-for-SHV-E120L-FB05.recovery.tar and installing the zip file in recovery mode.
I still can't connect to a network and I can't flash new firmware. All the flashing ends with an error that the NAND or amss.bin can't be writen to the phone.
Someoine has an idea what I can try now?

emergency no imei HELP!

I need your help, I did full flash with firmware I9100XXKPA, the phone worked, now shows the imei 004999010640000, I did the flash correctly, first flashing and then the file normally I9100_EFS_I9100XXKP9_CL45181_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5
but now my computer does not detect my phone, does not detect mass storage mode, flash mode only detects the phone, will my phone work again?
Why have you flashed something with EFS in the name? What instructions have you followed which told you to do this?
Did you ever flash siyah kernel or wamanlite?
LMAO @ emergency. Do a search for IMEI on this forum.....I am sure I have seen many with similar issues.
what iwanna know is ... XXKPA ... ? that a pre pre pre alpha realse of ICS from end of 2011

Is your IMEI the same as under the battery ??
If not flash stock rom with Odin .
Still wrong IMEI take to Samsung service dont bother reading the ten million exact same posts .

staff did a procedure that a friend posted on another Foum and now the machine operator's fate with this however if you try to make a connection he says he is not registered on the network, and when I type * # 06 # IMEI he brings me the 0/00 what I did was the procadimento
Retrieving IMEI and data connection after flashing package root WRONG I9305 Intended for:
Make sure you have the Samsung Kies or Samsung USB Driver installed on your PC.
Download and extract: Odin3 3.04.zip for your PC, if you have not already.
Download and extract: Param_Bin_I9305.zip for your PC.
With the phone turned off, press and hold: + 'Volume Down' HOME '+' POWER 'to enter Download Mode.
Connect your phone to PC via USB cable and start Odin.
Make sure your phone is connected to see if a COM port in a blue box is present in ID: COM.
Press the "PDA" and select the "Param_Bin_I9305.tar.md5 'file that you extracted the ZIP file before.
Press the 'Start' button and wait for it to finish flashing. If successful, you will see a green box with "PASS!".
Wait for your phone to reboot then go to the Dialer and press: * # 06 #. You should now see your IMEI and your data connection will be back.

[Q] GT-I9300 - IMEI NULL/NULL, unknown baseband and no USB interfacing

Hi all,
some days ago I got a Samsung S3 GT-I9300, it didin't charge battery or power ON at all .Now, after chancing the microUSB connector, phone is charging and working fine but , since some pads (which carry data+ and data - USB signals on motherboard) are irreparably damaged and I don't know any alternartive points, I can't interfacing it to a pc via USB (phone is not rooted).The problems is the mobile is pretty useless as is since no SIM is detected (IMEI is NULL/NULL),in the device infos I can read only:
BASEBAND UNKNOWN
ANDROID VERSION 4.1.2
KERNEL VERSION 3.0.31-1314436
BUILD VERSION JZO45K.I9300XXEMG4
What can i do?It would be possible to root it (and try some restore) without connecting it to a PC?Is JTAG the only chance?
Thanks in advance
Mobile odin is an app that acts just like odin on your phone, no need of a pc.
From there, you could flash a cwm based recovery to root it via a flashable zip.
You can try flashing new efsv2 firmwares (mg4 and up) to see if the imei gets fixed somehow.
However, since imei is null, probably a jtag is the only way to get it working again.

Hi and thanks for replying.Yes, I did consider to sue Mobile odin but, as far I know, it requires an already rooted mobile (mine has been never rooted before) so I'm in a vicious cycle.
Regarding JTAG, is there any document about?

-diffrent *#....# -things (needed menupoints are not there or the executing the point is not supported.
-flashing again and again roms that promisse to restore the emei
-using programs like write-emei, nv-items-reader-writer, maui-meta etc.... (but the programms can not connect to the phone in right mode)
....write-emei, reads the emei of my laptop gsm-modem and would be able to change it ...but not from my phone

If you don´t have backup you must find someone with service box. F.E. autorized service and pay
And you mean IMEI

thank you... i start beliving that too... i found a repairshop who is doning that for 30€....so its not too bad...
dont give up yet . try this one too !!!
flash the stock rom (downgrade)
if it still doesnt works
stay on 4.3 JB and try flashing different modems from 4.0 and 4.1.
it helped me atleast.
dont forget to hit thanks if i helped you in any way
at least i gave it to a guy who fixed it for 30 bugs.... he told me you need a hardwarebox for it.
also he told me that there is a certificate that is bound to something and so on ... and finaly fixing it need a board-replacement....
he now put somting like face-certificate on it with my original emei-nr.
if i am doing firmwareupgrade i will loose it again ... so will be happy with the 4.3 jb until i get a new phone with my contract
