[q] bricked phone help

I'm screwed! I was installing
MODEM_I9100XXKE4_REV_02_CL1009835.tar.md5
CODE_I9100XWKE7_CL215725_REV02_user_low.tar.md5
GT-I9100-CSC-XEUKD1.tar
and something happened in Odin3 and it froze, so I took the battery out and tried to restart it and now all I get is a blue and yellow screen that says Android System Recovery. I don't have anything backed up on the device, it didn't come with a microSD card, and it now says
Deleting Cryption Meta Data
-Copying media files....
#manual mode#
updating application....
applying multi-CSC
and that's it. When I hit reboot phone all I get is a screen with a triangle and an android symbol and when I hit apply update from sd card, same symbol, even when I tried to put a .TAR file on my dad's EVO microSD card and put it into the galaxy.
Also, now the USB cable doesn't recognize my phone for some reason so when I go back to ODIN mode it says
Product name - GT-i9100
Custom Binary Download - Yes (1 count)
Current Binary Samsung Official
When I try to restart the phone, it goes straight to the android recovery screen mentioned above, where I can't do anything, and then when I get into the Odin mode, it won't recognize the usb cable so I can link up to Odin3 V1.83 on the computer. Also tried the usb cable on other computers didn't find my phone. Also, as of right now it's not rooted, but I was in the process of rooting, when I realized I missed the Over the Air step so when I Odin3 an insecure.TAR file the WIFI was broke so S2 Root kept saying can't find usb connection even though it was connected, and somewhere along the line when I was trying to restore the radio's by installing the 3 files above, when it crashed something messed up? Now I can't do anything. PLEASE HELP
SO I AM STUCK! Please help????????
Buy a usb jig from ebay or amazon then flash your phone

The usb connection doesn't work between the phone and the computer anymore, so how can I flash something on the phone, when there is no way of getting a spk to the device, let alone the device recognizing it. If someone can't give me a solution, i'm just gonna take it back to sprint, and be like hey, I searched for a firmware update, and then this happened. it's still in my 30 days exchange on the receipt.
What were u trying to flash?

I believe you have to install the stock Samsung ROM that came with the phone. Search and there is a thread that I believe has the ROM you need.

Are you not able to use Odin to flash a stock kernel onto the phone?
Sent from my SGH-T989
Have you tried to go into download mode and see if Odin reads it?

Also my phone is on Stock Rom and Stock kernel, it just has the previous Kernel boot logo Synergy... and that is what i cant get off, i no longer have a rooted phone / CWM.. and on top of that cant use USB mass storage this sucks!
Yes, it doesnt do anything same as before...
from what ive read the zedomax method only flashes your recovery and a deodexed stock rom but doesnt flash the kernel which will leave the kernel you were using best bet is to head over to samsung make sure you have the newest drivers http://www.samsung.com/us/support/do...SGH-T989ZKBTMB and retry to get back into download mode to use odin using this....Take the battery back out Plug in the USB cable connected to the computer Hold down the volume up and down then Put the battery back in. You should get the option: Volume UP to continue / Volume Down for Reboot. Then try flashing back to full stock with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350360 afterwards you can format the usb storage and the phone should be set for a return or exchange
BTW that link is for the tmobile stock
ya tried drivers no luck.. you think T-mobile will care that it has that boot loader image even though its stock rom/kernel LOL??? i mean i guess ill have to try see what they say i am gonna act like its no biggie.
I had the same problem as you, I restored back to original, but the Synergy Logo comes when the phone powers on.
My computer only charges the phone, no matter what drivers you install.
I gave up in searching how to fix it.
I'm selling it to a friend who doesn't care much about phone like I do.
Lesson learn.
Why dont you just get a new one, i am in the 15 day grace period where i can exchange for a new phone, i am just going to get the HTC Amaze, i am not to impressed with this phone, i just hope they dont care that it has that logo lol!

It was passed my 15 days, and I believe they might care about the logo.
Good luck in return it. Let me know how it goes.

[Q] Firmware Update Failed, Battery low!! Can't Download

I first rooted my phone and then I attempted to download Ice Cream Sandwich on my Sprint Samsung Galaxy s2 4g Touch. During the download to my phone (using odin) my computer said that the update failed. My phone is saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." When I try to connect my phone to my computer, it will not detect it at all. And when I tried to put my phone in download mode, the upper left hand corner says Low Battery!! Can't Download in red letters (even when it is plugged into my computer). My LED light is also flashing blue. I just wanna restore my phone to factory settings or whatever I can do to make it work again. Thanks in advance for any help, it is really appreciated.

I got that message before and just knew I was screwed but I did some reading before panicking and these are the steps I took to recover from it.
Before you start pop out your sd card (hopefully you have an adapter or another device you can use to load stuff onto the card.
Put your phone on the wall charger for at least an hour to get some juice into the battery.
While the battery is charging go find a ROM you can flash via recovery as well as the el26 cwm kernel.
Then pop out your sd card and load the EL26 cwm kernel and ROM onto the sd card. (I would suggest maybe something from Calkulin or sfhub for ease)
Hold volume up + power to get into recovery mode, which you can still hopefully do.
Flash the el26cwm kernel and then the ROM.
Reboot
With any luck when you reboot your phone should come up.
Good luck.
It won't let me into recovery mode unfortunately.

Well that sucks. I'm unsure what else you can try.
I assume you've pulled the battery then tried to go into recovery and/or Odin?
Have you tried other cables, usb ports or computers? Re-downloaded the drivers?
Sounds like u tried to Odin the international ICS. U will need to look into jtag service or having the device replaced via TEP, insurance or a warranty replacement. Like fryingpan said you should have done more research before trying to install custom firmware.
We are legion, for we are many.
you might be able to fix it with jtag

It would help to know what file you were trying to flash. Where did you find it?

DID you CHARGED IT for at least AN HOUR as Eso recommend you? if not then plug it in to a wall and wait then try download mode again because is telling you NO BATTERY NO JUICE available. 20 minutes is not enough to get some juice to perform an ODIN Flash.

Root gingerbread JUST ADB ??

Does neone knw how to root Gingerbread fc09 with just adb?
Basically, my phone submerged in water, I did clean the motherboard and let it dry in a vacuum chamber, n luckily everything pretty much works, EXCEPT the power button n essenti ally I want to try buttonremapper but it needs root :/
That means no download mode or booting through clockworkmod, it is a stock rom phone
Other details:
Odin does recognize the phone if turned on, is that sufficient (doubt) to flash or must it b in download mode
Adb has a reboot bootloader option will that load up download mode??
n I can try this if there's no other option but if I hold 1 n turn on the phone (using the the plug in charger/plug out charger) do u guys think download mode can still b accessed? I will try this as a last resort, since currently the phone works as long as it stays on n just need it to 4 sure last me 2 weeks then I can do whatever n case something goes wrong, however I'd like to avoid turning ofd the phone currently as sometimes the charger method doesn't turn on the phone...
thanks, any help is much appreciated

[Q] I flashed the wrong rom/md5 file when trying to root it won't turn on

So i tried to root my tablet yesterday and i didnt notice at first that i pick an mx5 for an older android phone i have. So i stopped odin on my pc and the tablet was stuck in download mode frozen, so i took the battery out and now it wont turn on, but when i plug it in to my computer it still shows up in odin but xant connect to it what can i do?
Why did you take out the battery? Letting it die could of helped. Did you press start of anything in odin? Or did you stop odin while it flahed the md5. This could determine if your partition isnt messed up. The only tip I got right now is to take it to samsung and get it repaired.
I took the battery out to see of i could reboot it but it didnt work and yes ot was mod process in odin before i realized what i had done, i dont really want to send it into samsung because i dont want it to be gone for awhile, could a computer repair store do it for me?
Try this. Read post #1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2838473
Thank you so much got it working again, time to log some crazy jerrys game hours
So that link that i gave you worked?
well i tried it, but it didnt work when it was in the computer but connecting it again must have done something cause i was able to get download mode so i just flashed the proper files and got it working
