Tried charging or replacing battery?

Use a external charger and try charging battery...

And try

Remove battery for 15 secs.

Reinsert battery.

Press the volume down + power + home key and see if it works

Or cross ur fingures and take to samsung and pray that they are noobs

Oh and did u remove the cable while flashing?

Pressed the bootloader button and selected something in odin?

I am not promoting Iphone here:p I just said that the Hi res. display 480x854 or something like that was Introduced by Iphone on 3.5" screen. It was revolutionary that's it.
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
If u r talking about ppi then even u can see the difference on youtube about the screen and read several pages about it and dont see the difference on a indian site because its always false result in the end

And that wasn't "revolution"

Amoled screens was revolution
[Galaxy S II General] fatjivi:
i tried every possible combination the entire day :(

and yeah think i screwed up the bootloader while flashing in odin

there were two files and i was supposed to flash only the first one and i think used the wrong tar file in PDA

im pretty sure the bootloader is gone now

i live in a small town the samsung store doesnt way real tech guys

the phone wont even start so im pretty sure they will take it at service center here

what im afraid is of the fact that when the phone goes to delhi at the repair center the phone may get turned down for repair when they find out im running custom ROM and kernel...then i might have to shell out money :(
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Iphone=SLCD

Galaxy s2=super amoLED+

Advantages?

See now its better than LED see the name super amo(LED)+

Black colour looks black and not some grey colour

Touch is in the display(not in two layers like a normal display)

Gorilla glass(see drop test on youtube)
[Galaxy S II General] Hrithan2020:
Just wanted to point out there is a huge difference in the ipod's and iPhone's screen,. Screen on iPhone is gorgeous, (while ipod4's display sucks) especially if you prefer colour accuracy to oversaturated colors.But, I for one am more than fine with the oversaturated screen. Depends on perspective, I guess.
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
Its not going to happen like that considering dumb SC people.

So don't worry, If they found you flahsed unofficial rom (chances are less) just ask them you are agree to pay for repair. It is good to paying some rs. Rather than loosing 30 K.

Why this Kolaveri Doc?

I know u hate Icrap & Apple.

Well,Everybody who has some self-respect[including Myself] hate iphone - becoz of Closed ecosystem, Big brother attitude, no innovations from our side etc....

Iphone still has a lot of problems[well everybody know them:D:D:D].

But a lot of my friends have iphones.[Reason-Simplicity:D:D:D]

I have played with them and my conclusions r:

1.Retina display is really awesome and to match that brilliance even by half i have to put GS2 in to 100% brightness.

2.U have to see the pictures shot by those inferior cameras of Iphone to believe them.Our 8 MP output r really humbug IMHO.

3.Screen-IPS SLCD-good for reading and web browsing.Our OLEDs r good for Multimedia.

4.Except siri induced problem in 4S,others have a very good battery life.

5.The games i played in iphones r really fluidlike and buttery smooth.I could not say the same with my GS2.

6.Regarding updates,u cannot beat Apple.Look at sammy.My OmniaHD was not even given one update and my Galaxy Tab 7" is not going to be given ICS:mad::mad::mad:.

But still i prefer non-apple phones for the reasons explained at the start of this very long reply and I'd like to add that I really like GS2 for so many reasons we all know already.
[Galaxy S II General] fatjivi:
hopefully they wont find out...if they do ill try to pay them off for their "trouble" :P

whatever works out...spending 30k again is out of question!!
[Galaxy S II General] Raven'sSight:
Why 77 mills SII and 44 mils iP4 ?

1> OS usability : super easy to use. What intuitive is. Give sII and iP4 to a 2-3 year old and see how quickly he learns to use the iP. Even u had struglled with menus first time you got your android but not so with the iP, its all seamless.

2>The whole system. I mean u can have the iOS phone, tablet, a mac and an air all will be synced and happy.

3>The screen is fabulous. The resolution for that size is amazing. The body of the phone is pleasing to hold.

4> Its the 1st of its kind. Tactile and usable and brilliant. So people who started with the 1st iP stuck to that and kept upgrading. And new users never stopped adding on.

5>the price is same in US (main market) and considering 95% of buyers dont fiddle with their devices, iP is an obvious choice.

6>The music is simply leaps and bounds ahead of the SII. The camera beats the SII hands down and considering these to be the most important factors for most device buyers, the sales are justified.

6>As less importance we give to this in India, its a high priority for American buyers. iP has 100 times better service than Samsung.

eg. the iStore in seattle replaced the iP4 of one of my bro's friend and it wasn't covered under warranty. The reason was goodwill-gesture. The water damage was because of his 2 year old son's drooling and chewing the phone.

eg.My bro's iP4S got replaced because there was intermittent touch response issue. Same issue with my friend's S2 and they just replaced the screen + some new scratches.

There are many more but then i chose SII because it suited my need. if i were not interested in spending time ON the phone i would surely go for an iP.

Respect whats good. If you like 'A', you dont have to hate 'B' !!!
[Galaxy S II General] kachrukamble:
If they found your mistake they will consider violation of warrenty. Warrenty means no charge for repair. So you can ask them to repair the phone and you r ready to pay whatever charges they charge for:)

http://www.idownloadblog.com/2010/09/16/iphone-4-vs-ipod-touch-4g-speed-display-and-camera/

iPhone is a beast. I use both SGS2 and iPhone4S, both displays are good (amoled and retina) but since the graphics in iOS are of high quality you see huge difference.

I tried dead space on both the phones, and iPhone gaming was way way better than SGS2. For me, its still ok with SGS2 coz its much smarter, sexier and tons of customize options than iPhone4S.

btw: I do love both the phones, one for gaming and one for customize features etc :D

PS: lets get back to topic and stop comparing iOS and Android here coz both are good in their own aspect. If you guys forgot the thread title :

Official Indian GS2 Owner's Thread - views, reviews and more!!
[Galaxy S II General] emze:
first of all, RELAX.

charge your phone.

buy a usb jig for 200 bucks.

if you messed up your bootloader, your efs will get screwed. you will still be able to use your phone.

if you pulled the plug while doing odin, you will get a soft brick.

i think, if you have successfully managed to brick your phone, you might be the first person on the planet to do so(correct me if i am wrong).

the only way to totally screw your phone is to

1 drop it from 1st floor of a building

2 drop it in water

3 a "do-it-your-self" repair of your phone.

---------- Post added at 08:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 PM ----------

1.i agree with you, any Tom, **** or Harry can use an iPhone. but i am neither of them. any new device for that mater is difficult the first few times. INCLUDING IOS

2. i do not need any wires to sync my phone with the computer. HECK I DO NOT NEED MY COMPUTER AT ALL. unlike iOS. if i change my pc/mac, all data on my phone is GONE. one computer, one iPhone is just stupid.

for me, all my messages, contacts, photos, everything are on my gmail.. which, is available on every mac, pc, iPod, iPad, iPhone, linux(am i missing out anyother os?)

3 screen is fab. yeah. but my s2 beats out the iPhone 4s display hands down.

4. yeah they stuck to it. UNTIL they got an android. eg.. ME.

5. i don't want to get into the price thing

6. music is leaps better? err.. can you explain? just because you use iTunes, music does not get better. in fact, that bloody app is a pain in the neck. it used to take up so much resource on my old desktop.

camera, i agree, iphone sensors are good.

6b. service: yeah you are right. but come on, a device with such good qualities, you should have some drawbacks na? so, the service thing is kinda a drawback for the s2.

Camera:I m not a photographer so camera is great for me

But As a doctor its good and handy
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
first of all congrats for a new paper weight..seriously you should to have read flashing instructions 10 times(that too when its a known fact here at xda that all hard bricks are caused by wrong bootloader flashing)!!!!And Oye dont worry..no way they can find out you were on custom ROM..coz your phone doesnt boot :)simple!! go to them and act as if you are a complete noob.They will change everything inside or even outside(yes outside..right..first hand experience) :)
[Galaxy S II General] fatjivi:
no im surely not the first person to hard brick a phone :P

thats y there r services for jtag repair for those have a complete brick

ive tried usb jig(brick happened while using the jig only :P)

i think going with kachrukambles suggestion is the best way right now

go to samsung n hope they repair it for free...if they consider my warranty violated then ill get into some good old fashioned bargaining and get the cheapest quote
[Galaxy S II General] chetan_mohanty:
Jtag repair in India????where??tell me if u find :D

And yes i am sure that you wil get it covered under warranty.you just have to act ;) tell them updating via kies did this!! :)
[Galaxy S II General] sahibunlimited:
Of course n00bs need it and no,a 2-3 year old can't even use nokia

Yup if u have some connection of 2 MB/s,their are several apps to sync on android and u want to share all photos and video to ur family

That's what are iBots do

Who said?

I don't need to print posters from my camera,i don't have any idea about the music thing(i guess i have to listen it more but i use my earphone mostly)

My s2 have a weird screen problem i took it to samsung and they said i can bring my phone and get it replaced in 15 mins

[Galaxy S II General] sandeep10:
I think built-in features more than adequate for me. Samsung Dive seems to be able to do what most others can. I pin lock the screen (especially when moving out of office/home) and data is on. Any sim card change, sms can be sent and also phone locked.

In fact there was a recent article in TOI or some other paper saying thieves are staying away from smartphones as they can easily be tracked down.

And to add the the iPhone vs. the rest, for me the customisation and flexibility of Android is great. I can install several keyboards (with Swiftkey X, I am mostly pressing the spacebar or a couple of letters at the most to get detailed sentences - amazing), messaging and email apps, etc., which I do not think iPhone can. So with Apple, one is generally stuck in their walled garden, which for many may not be a bad thing.

not sure about this. try entering download mode volume down +home+power buttons then volume up and try to flash a ROM using ODIN. If you have already rooted. enter recovery mode (volume up+home+power) and then reboot the system from there.

or if you have your warranty intact just get it replaced/fixed at the dealer you bought.

Not good for a 50 gb download per month user...

All my dreams crushed :/

Anyways i will be upgrading to 1350 per month plan which gives 4MB/s till 20 gb and then 512 KB/s

Actually the dongle is waste of money

U have ur mobile that can do HSPA+ @21.1 MB/s and that BSNL dongle can do upto 7.2 MB/s

The biggest use of wired connection is that if u ask for wifi modem they give u,then u can use it on multiple wifi's and on old computers through Ethernet cable and after all setup it will be some Rs.2000 and will be added like some 1000 a month for 2 months
