What it seems that the build.prop got messed up, and the phone can't get the right model number, so it declines the install. Just flash the XXLPH package (just PDA, CSC and MODEM) and you should be good to go ;)

Hi

My phone was running original ics when my phone died when i did a factory reset and the programs from market was installing.

I have tried everything, flashing all the diffrent files, with pit and with out. Bootloader etc. Nothing works. My phone still get stuck on the galaxy sII logo.

I can only enter donwload mode.

Everything passes in odin without problems but when my phone reboots after the flash it still gets stuck on Samsung galaxy sII.

The last time i tried loading the pit, bootloader,pda,phone and CSC. It all passes as you can see below but it will still not load past the sgs2 screen

I'm out of ideas what to do?? PLEASE HELP SOMEONE!

Can you get in to recovery mode to wipe data/cache/dalvik?

Plus when turning on, does it have a response (vibrate?) if it does it means it is booting..i have had my phone on bootscreen for 5 minutes before it finally did boot
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Thanks! :)

If you want, I can also add drawings on how to flash :p But if I do, no one will understand, because for example, when I draw a pig, it looks like a horse with cat ears >.>

It was actually quite nice to do this guide, seeing the happiness of people getting their phones recovered is quite a joy to me :D

Hi every body.

I have galaxy s2 that i root with odin.

I removed the USB cable before the root is complete. After, the phone stopped working, when I want to turn back or that I put button volume down+home+power it shows me a black screen with a phone and a PC and a yellow triangle between the two.

Please help me to fix it.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Well, interrupting a root is bad, but not as bad as bootloader fail...

Can you go to recovery mode? Or even download mode?

No, i can't.

it show me black screen with telephone and pc as i said

is there something i can do to fix ?

Help Please

Hi people, I got a S2, stock ROM 2.3.4 with root via odin. I use my phone for 6 months with restarts and shut downs. One day I just turn it off and it stuck on samsung model screen (before S animation). My phone stays in that screen or restart, I took batery off, root odin again, but nothing... I can get into recovery and download mode, I made step by step all the instructions on this forum, all went succed, nothing fail. But I can't get the phone to work, I'm still stuck on samsung model screen.

What else I can do? :confused:
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alez33:
Great Compilation

I was really scared, O thought I had a 600USD brick....

This steps are VERY easy to follow, it's just the same as flashing the firmware and kernel of your phone; and it's the only guide that worked out of the 4 i tryed :D

THANKS FOR YOUR GUIDE!!!!

I saw a video on youtube, they show you how to use the J-Tag. You can buy it for 60 bucks, and i think it's a lot better than throwing away your phone...

Find the video and in the commentaries you'll see the details on were to order.

Have you tried going to recovery mode and doing a data/cache/dalvik wipe?

Cheers! :D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fofo13:
Thanks
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fofo13:
Yes I try, wipe data, wipe dalvik cache, try to restore but no backup present (my fault) and try to make bakup but it freezes when backing up data.

I flash Bootloader.

I flash Kernel

I flash Phone, Modem, CSC all together.

All went success, but when the phone restart stays in bootloop!

Phistachio, what else I can do? Thanks for your help.

hi, after flashing the latest speedmod kernel my phone is stuck at the "samsung s II" screen...i can't enter download mode or recovery! what to do?!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
The flash failed, right...? What happened?

Did you try flashing the ICS package?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fofo13:
Yes I try,

Format system, format data, wipe user data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik.

Try different USB cables, Try different laptops.

Try with old and new bootloader (success both), try kernel (successs), try phone modem and CSC together (successs), try GB files and ICS files, all went success.

The funny thing is that my counter in DL mode never increases and yellow triangle never gone. I read that other user from this the forum, that can be emmc (internal SD) damage, so I can't write any data!

I think I will send my phone to samsung repair service!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Before sending it try this :

Use the download mode combo

Even though it'll show that screen, plug in your phone to your PC

Beforehand, load the files to ODIN

Plug the phone and press Start

Report back :)

No Download mode or recovery mode

My friend messed up with bootloader and siyah kernel flashing.

Now his phone didnt go through in Download mode or recovery mode?

Whats the possible solution now?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blade30p:
How did he mess up his bootloader by flashing siyah? It couldn't be simpler??
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Let me guess.

He flashed Siyah 3.1 rc6. Did a cache/dalvik wipe and his eMMC fried? ;)

It's impossible to brick the bootloader by flashing a kernel. If he didn't flash Siyah 3.1 rc6, then what has he flashed too?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gre0:
Hi,

it great this procedure seems to help a lot of people. Myself however, I have no such luck.

Back story

I have been running Cyanogenmod 9 (ICS) for a few weeks without any issues. Yesterday, while the phone was just lying on my desk next to me (battery about half full (or half empty depending on your outlook on life :)), I notice the screen lighting up. As I watch, the phone reboots and stops at the boot screen with exclamation mark.

I power cycle, and tries to boot into CWM, which works. I power down and go to bed. Today, the phone still stops at the boot screen, and try as I might, I can't for the life of me get back into the recovery.

Booting to Download works fine, and Odin detects the phone. The issue now is that no matter what I try flashing, I never get past the "NAND Write Start!!" message, even having waited 10+ minutes.

Power cycling and going through your steps, the same thing happens each time, for the kernel, bootloader and so on.

After one of the steps, I now get "phone, orange exclamatinon mark, computer" icons rther than the regular boot screen. Can still get back into download mode, but flashing always stops at "NAND Write Start!!".

Am I missing anything? What can I try now?

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Does it enter Download mode? As I see that your laptop entered sleep mode while flashing, I don't see big chances of recovery but a JTAG...

Mmmm, that is weird...Specially because that happened with CM9... Which kernel did you use?

I'm 99% sure that this is related to the sdcard, and somehow it got damaged. From now, the only option to recover it is by sending the phone to a JTAG service... :(

I have tried this and odin hangs when writing the datafs, my phone can enter download mode but not recovery, i am able to flash cwm and go into recovery but it wont allow me to wipe data, i was previously on ics for bell, and had everything working, i made a back up in cwm, then installed a theme, it didnt work, so just to make sure everything was ok i tried to restore the back up and thats what got me here, i have been reading and trying different thingd for 2 days with no avail, please help any will be appreciated
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Yup, a JTAG won't help... If he suffered from the eMMC bug, then he will have to get a motherboard replacement, because a JTAG does not fix it.

As the title says, you have the I9100M, and this guide will not work with your device.

http://www.hotfile.com/dl/155449419/2a798e8/I9100MUGLD3_I9100MBMCLD3_VMC.zip.html

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Hmmm... Unfortunately, the only way to fix it is to flash a kernel or a package with a .PIT, and I have neither of those... :(

Does your phone have Tegra 2 or Exynos?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GojiTronix:
im not sure if its tegra 2 or exynos, how would i find that out?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
Nevermind it, I thought I could give you a package for the same chipset, but that would brick your device.

Another solution is to get a JIG and re flash...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GojiTronix:
a jig would allow me to reflash?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phistachio:
It'll force you to DL mode and perhaps it may fix your issue :)

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thracemerin:
GT-I9100M is the same exact hardware as GT-I9100 (Exynos, Mali 400, etc), the only difference is the extraneous M on the stickers, a .pit and kernel for the GT-I9100 will work correctly for the I9100M, fyi.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coldpower27:
:( I am not sure now, I have been trying to reflash several times to no avail.

I can currently still enter Download mode and Recovery Mode

I was trying to flash the Ressurection ROM and I first enter regular recovery then with a zip file CWM Touch recovery then through there I made a backup of my current ROM which was the official Bell ROM ICS..

I tried to flash Ressurection but after I did so it just wouldn't boot properly it would go into the Touch Recovery.

So after I tried to restore from Backup but that didn't work either as I would still be left at the GT9100M Screen.

Then I tried to Odin flash but after flashing I still am stuck at the boot screen. :'(

I am following the direction but nothing is working and I have an unusable phone now. :(

Hello everyone.

So I tried using Resurrection Remix ICS ROM v.1.9.1 which I didn't like because it wouldn't read my sdcard. Anyway I did wipe data/factory reset using cwm 4.0.1.4. and tried getting my backed up gingerbread 2.3.3. back. It said restore complete, but when I reboot system it just stays on startup Galaxy s2 text thing.

Phone can go to download and cwm modes and does work with Resurrection Remix ICS ROM when I flash it back in.

How do I get it back on its feet with stock rom in ?

(Model is GT-I9100 from Europe)

Edit: Got it back up using a portion of this guide. Thank you very much for this tutorial. I just wasn't sure what to use :))
