Received a brand new Ace yesterday, and immediately rooted it with super one click with no problems.
However I then tried to run the 'Galaxy Ace Unlock apk' which I'd found elsewhere.
It generated an unlock pin, but after rebooting it stuck on the Galaxy Ace flash screen. After 5 minutes I pulled the battery out, waited, then rebooted. Now it doesn't even get to the Galaxy Ace screen when switched on.
The screen backlight comes on (with a black screen) for a couple of seconds, then off, then on - but it never gets any further.
So far I've tried
- Flashing Stock Froyo via Odin
- Flashing VillainRom via Odin
In both cases the phone enters download mode, Odin completes all steps without error, but on reboot I am left with the black screen of death again!
Anything else I could try?
I have the same problem.
Have you found a solution?

Hey!
Dose you RESET FACTORY SETTINGS and FORMAT CACHE in recovery, before flashing with ODIN?
CHEERS!
Did the light lit when you entered the download mode? That's the indicator.
I got the same proble, tried several firmwares with odin but, when the phone reboots it starts flashing again
Hey!
You all, try THIS one.

I hope all ENDS good! Fingers crossed for you phone!!!

The same thing happens to me, Anybody has any idea?
Just send it to the service center.
No other recovery method is know.
I have been in every forum arond for this kinda brick and there is no solution for YOU to do. Also there is absolutely no way for Samsung to see either say that after the first boot the battery went dead and it never started again. It will be covered by your warranty and brand new ace! Now dont go making stupid mistakes again hope i helped

Apk/sim bricked my phone.
Unlock Apk also bricked my phone in the same manner.
The app generating the code is not the problem on it's own, it's when you put the "other" Sim card in and reboot that does the damage.
I got a buzz when i could still get Download Mode and Odin gave me a PASS when i reflashed, but alas the phone never rebooted and it still flashed black at me.
I'm trying everything to bring it back to life before it goes to the Service Centre and i have to give them some blag as to why it's bricked.
Other than Download Mode i can get "Emergency Dload Mode"(ARM9) & RAMDUMP.

hello experts
i had followed steps to root my galaxy s2 using odin flashing and it was success, and unlocked.
The phone started well with a yellow Exclamation.
and the phone was unlocked.
after a few minutes the phone was very slow and got stuck. i restarted it.
again stuck, restarted but it dint start again. i thought battry was low and put to charge.
but it dint charge as well.
So i showed the phone to a repairing center and they said its dead.
Any help that i can start my phone again ??
Thanks in advance guys :'(
Try reverting back to the stock unrooted rom.
Go to Sam firmware.com and download the stock from ..flash it via Odin.. search ..google is ur friend..Don't ask the repairing shop again for advice (phone is dead...duh)

If you have an official stock ROM with official firmware on it, the repair centre should change your mainboard and basically making your phone brand new.

which version were you on? Are you sure the rooting went okay?
The USB-Jig must work. especially on GB. it even works fot me on ICS.
When you can not get into download-mode (odin mode) ór recovery you can't flash anything..
Hope for you that your battery is broke. or maybe one of the processors... Still got warrenty?

Hi you cant do anything unless you have download mode on you device,

He already said it won't boot normally, to recovery, or to download mode. JTag or warranty are his only options.
[A] Galaxy s2 bricked
You have to know smthng:
- It is always possible to get to download mode, if not through the button combo (home+power+Volume_DOWN), then through the USB Jig
- If your phone is bricked, the download mode might not announce itself through the android robot: the exclamation mark will persist in some cases. One indication is that ODIN will be recognizing your phone on the COM port (USB that is).
Notify me if you needed further assistance
Which instructions did you follow?
If those are wrong hopefully somebody else will see this and avoid those instructions.
Hello guys.
Unfortunately my galaxy s3 cannot turn on. My phone started to freeze all the time and I got a message when i turned on that i have to wipe data because my cell phone can become unstable. Below the message it was a key which said "I am feeling lucky" :/ I tried to boot to recovery with the standard way of Home + volume + power and Android logo came on the screen like the way when I updated the firmware. When it stuck after 10 mins I turned it off and now the only thing I can see is a white screen with grey lines. nothing more nothing less.
I cannot do anything via toolkit because it cannot find the mobile...

Hi guys! First of all, pls excuse my English.
I have a S II I9100 for almost two years and it won't start anymore. Before, I never had any starting issus with the device, but last friday, I tried to turn the screen on as always with the bower button but nothing happend. So I removed the battery and tried starting it again. The device booted until the Samsung logo and got stuck there. I removed the battery again and since then, my screen doesn't turn on.
Here my software specs:
Firmeware: I9100XXLSJ_I9100OXXLS1_OXX
Kernel: Siyah-s2-v6.0b5
I flashed this software 4 month ago.
What I tried until now:
- I tried a different battery
- of course I put it on the power (the phone got a bit hot but nothing else happened)
- booting recovery or download mode
So I can't boot the Recovery or Download Mode and at the moment I'm a bit confused what I can do without getting forced using my S II as paperweight. I'm not sure if I should try a USBjig.
If you have any other questions pls ask!
Any tips are welcome
Greetz, Lenniitsch!
Of course try a jig, and try King Rat's (search his posts) method where you try to 'jumpstart' the phone with just the charger/no battery. These are very much unlikely to work, but you have nothing to lose by trying & sometimes **** truly does happen (I.E one of these methods works).

Hi there,
Firstly sorry if I have posted in the wrong place, i'm not too good with forums and or technology. About two weeks ago, my sister had passed me down her old Samsung Galaxy S2 which she had been using for more than a year. She's had no problems with it what so ever. Up until today, I was browsing the internet, when the internet 'app' crashed and gave me a pop up saying 'internet browser has stopped responding' or something to that affect. It then followed by a black screen where I was not able to do nothing apart from stare at the screen. I popped out the battery, waited a couple of minutes and put it back in. The screen came on with the Samsung logo, but nothing happened from there on, it was frozen. So I repeated the process one more, and now the phone does not turn on at all! I really hope someone can help me out here.
The phone has never been rooted/flashed or had anything done with it.
I have tried leaving the battery out for a couple of hours, still nothing.
I've also swapped batteries and nothing happened.
Tried booting in recovery/download mode and nothing happened either.
I've also tried connecting it to my PC where nothing happens.
I'm hoping someone can help me here, I've only had the phone for two weeks and it's already broken! My sister had it for a year and no problems! Bump.
Thanks in advance,
So can you boot into recovery or download mode? Without either of those two there's nothing you can do apart from take it to a service centre. If you have download mode then you can flash a stock ROM using Odin.
Else, do you have warranty still as it's a year old? If you do, take it to the service centre under warranty.

Are you sure it's out of warranty? Samsung offers a 2 year warranty in some countries (afaik everywhere in the EU)
My Wife says I'm a phone geek.....
I'd have to agree.....
Click the link in my signature and look at the section for 'no download mode'.. Try that section. Some users report being able to boot into download mode after trying those things.
Edit: And look on eBay for 'i9100 usb jig'. Its a way of attempting to force into download mode

Thanks for the quick reply, unfortunately none of those methods worked for me, i'll try the USB jig and report back. If that doesn't work i'm guessing the motherboard is the problem right? Is Samsung able to repair the phone for me even if its out of warranty but with a cost? If so, how much do you think it will cost?
Thanks
You tried all of them in 15 minutes? Give them another go, it can take a few goes sometimes if you don't get it quite right. Otherwise, yes try the jig, but don't pin your hopes on it. Yes, they can repair it. The other (cheaper) option is to buy a handset with broken screen off eBay or similar and switch your motherboard. I'm sorry, I don't know the costs :/

A little solution
Plug in ur usb to the PC as the device is off....it should remain off for this...
Plug in and see if its charging via pc.....As for it to charge..it has to go through the repair which happens internally without you need to do anything...
A triangle should appear before charging icon appears..As it appears,, just right after that flash ur rom via odin disconnect dont boot now wait n again do the usb charging trick.....
Then boot it should probably be working up again..Well it worths for a try.......
Do it n post it.
Tried rooting my s2 using odin. went into download mode then connected the phone. and clicked start. according to the instructions for rooting from youtube , it said the phone would restart after it said PASS on Odin. After it showed PASS it didnt restart even after a very longtime. so i disconnected.
Now i get the samsung logo with a triangle below. I m able to go to download mode.
Pls help guys

Did you check the AUTO REBOOT option in Odin? Did you try to remove the battery for a couple of minutes and reboot?
Yellow triangle is normal
PLEASE READ THE FAQ said:
Q4: When I turn my phone on, I see a yellow triangle. What is it and how can I get rid of it?
It will appear if you have flashed a non-official kernel from download mode. If you flash kernels using CWM recovery, Mobile Odin etc. you won't get this yellow triangle.
The easiest ways to remove it are to use the app Triangle Away OR use a USB Jig.

Now, I am facing the same problem today, my device started and was stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S2 logo.
Did the same thing again, the animated android logo appeared, and after some time the device was off.
I have been trying to get the device to switch on , but to no avail, the device is not even powering ON.
Device info: Unrooted , OS: 4.1.2
Please advice. Kindly treat this as urgent.
Many thanks in advance.

Phone not booting at all/charging/no signs of life = Samsung service centre or local mobile repair shop for diagnosis. Nothing anyone here can suggest beyond that if the phone won't even bootloop or be in a state where it's 'user fixable'.

Sorry For the late reply.
I guess, you need to boot in recovery
with home + power+vol up
and clear data and reboot
if that doesnt help.
try booting in download mode again and flash the firmware.
but let it charge first.

Tried everything , the phone is not even powering ON.
I checked with service center , they are asking INR 8000 to replace the motherboard.
I'm instead thing of buying S4, should I ?
please advice guys.
My phone is dead too...
I left it on (functioning normally) and went for a bath, when I got out it was dead...
