Lol. Can you get to download mode. Hold Volume Down, Home and Power. When prompted hit Volume Up. You should get into download mode. You can then load the stock tar in ODIN.

Need help reflashing back to stock... SOS

Hi All,
I need help flashing back to stock ROM.
I found the factory files and have populated it in Odin3 v3.07.
This is what my screenshots look like (attached).
The Odin3 screen doesn't seem to be doing anything. Should I just let it be? Is it working in the background?
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
U have to make sure your Phone is in download mode. Volume down, homekey, and power button at the same time.

it is in download mode.
odin3 screen has been idle for a while.
"Get PIT for mapping..."
ON the phone itself, it's the green android and says downloading... do not turn off target.

I wonder, do I even have the correct files?
It does not look like what mine looked like.. I thought all you used was pda and did not have repartition and all that clicked and your files have an extension of md5? Also are you sprint.? I 7100 that does not look like sprint

Why aren't you just using the 1 click method? I bricked the *&#$ out of my phone the other night and it worked like a charm. Sextape posts the links here. All you have to do is download the exe and run it.

Help please!

So earlier today I was using my phone in class when it suddenly shuts off. It shutting off was normal to me so like always, I take the battery out and put it back in. It turns back on gets to one of the loading screens and shuts off. My phone keeps vibrating while it's off so I don't think it could be the battery. Occasionally if I'm lucky, it would fully load to the point where I could use it but then shuts off and the whole process repeats again. I'm using the juggernaut rom if that helps.
Any ideas?
Odin back to stock and root your device and restore to your previous ROM if u have a backup of that ROM on your phone

I didn't have it in in the video and I tried it too, it doesn't do/change anything. I can get into download mode for literally a second and then the same thing just happens, it turns off and the little vibrating continues and remains in that state until I remove the battery and put it back in.

When it vibrates does the screen turn black or does it completely turn off ?

I know how to put it in recovery mode, I'm saying in general whenever the battery is in, the phone is vibrating and shut off
Wish I could help but I don't know

Sounds like it could be a stuck power button...at least as I've read other descriptions of similar symptoms. Check here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1931310

Yup its a sticky power button I had the same issue

[Q] Keeps booting...

I was on the lastest beanstalk and I received a text while updating some random app in the play store. The phone rebooted during the process and its been rebooting since. It stops when I do a battery pull, I put the battery back in and it loads the Samsung logo and then shows the sII logo and about half way it reboots stays a black screen and boots over and over. Assuming I softbricked somehow I attempted to go into download mode and start fresh. When trying to do so it loads up the screen where it allows me to press up or down using the volume buttons but when recovery tries to load up and flashes green goes back to blacm and continues to boot over and over not allowing me to manual get into download mode nor recovery.
Any help or advice would be great thanks in advance for any willing to give suggestions!

Seems like your power buttons stuckk. Try cleaning around it with a toothpick and see if your phone stops rebooting
I was gonna try open it and clean it that way but a tooth pick sounds legit. Any advice is good thanks bros:thumbup:

[Q] My galaxy s2 SGH-T989 wont turn on.

Ok, so i can't really tell if this particular problem has been posted before but from what i have looked through it has not. However, if i have just missed it then please just redirect me to it as long as it matches my problem so please read through my post before posting that its been done.
So moving along, as the title says i have a Samsung Galaxy s2 SGH-T989 and i've been running CyanogenMod 10.2. Oh and before i forget, the battery is not dead and just in case i've tried to turn it on while plugged in only to get the same results. Anyways over the past 24 hours my phone started shutting off randomly to the point now that it shuts off before finishing booting. If it does finish it doesn't stay on long enough to do anything and sometimes it barely turns on.
Has this been heard of before and even if not what can i try or do?
Three words:
Broken power button
Apparently it's a very common issue with this phone.
It has yet to happen on my phone. I hope it never does lol.
You can try replacing the button yourself or take it to a cellphone repair shop.
Sounds right, the button is difficult to replace, best to have a shop replace it. I have fixed a couple by tightening the button. You tube, easy power button fix t989 by iamkambodian. Only if you're OK with taking it apart.
Ps, you can feel the button click if it's good.

Well i tried the method in the video and that doesn't seem to have fixed it. Also not entirely sure its the power button but i don't really know how to tell either. Anyways if there are any other ideas please let me know.
This is what I did when I messed up a recovery: plugged it in the computer and held all 3 buttons until Samsung then just volume up. It got me into download mode where I used Odin to flash another recovery.
