I recently rooted my phone and got the Blazer Rom. After messing around with it for a weekend, I decided to try another rom, but I thought i back up my phone but I was wrong. Now my phone turns on and sits there with the Samsung Galaxy SII on the screen and thats it. If I hold the volume botton up and power botton I get Rogue ET Recover 1.1.1. I tried everything to wiping my phone nothings is in Backup or Restore. Reboot system doesn't seem to work. I don't know what to do.
I guess the only reason I'm freaking out is my gf is gonna think i'm ignoring her. I'd email but she doesn't check her email anywho.
FYI i did search before i posted this i found quite of bit of people that have problems with their phones turning on but none of them seemed to around what I'm dealing with. With that said any suggestions?
Sorry if this is a repost!!!
Have you tried an odin 1 click? I would start with the el29 for gb or the FF11 for ics. You can find them in the dev section.
You need Odin....or Odin mobile from market. Put phone in download mode. Do el29 with cwm tar. Wipe and installed new from. Google how to do this or search xda and you will solve problem.

I forgot to mention i have gingerbreadd not ICS
Ics or gingerbread doesn't matter your phone is in limbo. Go to laptop put phone in download mode. Make sure you have the el29 cwm tar file to put in Odin and then connect phone. Then you can do a restore or flash a new rom.

Thank buddy your a life saver.
Right now I downloaded Odin, what I did was take out the battery, press down and than the power button. I pressed the volume down than click start on odin, and it gave me this

<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> Set PIT file..

but its been like this for awhile, I know the develop said to be patient but I'm wondering if I did it wrong?
Just checking on your progress.
Let me ask, the odin screen on the computer, did the Com Port button light up when you plugged the phone in?
Also, what do you have installed for drivers, Kies or the Samsung Driver Suite?

Did you also download the el29 file. Place it in pit slot.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Use the pit file and place the tar in pda. If not try a different cable/usb port. That should work. Remove sd card also if u have one
well i went to take a shower and when i came back the odin program said fail, i unplugged it, took out battery, than tried to rest start the process. now my phone doesn't turn on at all. just shows a blue light.....i think its done.
By any chance did you copy the ODIN log or leave it open? If so can you paste here? Might be able to help.
Other ideas:
1) Jig might be able to help in this case
2) Try EL26/29 if you can get to DL mode
(Just wondering if it can save you a trip to Sprint or not)
i ended up taking my phone to place where they specialize in rooted and jail breaking. he took it for two days and couldn't do anything. so i threw my phone in the pool and took it to a sprint store they just gave me a new phone, should be in on monday.

I just did a trade with someone and got his Epic 4G Touch. He mentioned the phone was rooted but I didn't catch what rom he had on there. The phone was working fine but had all of his information on it, so I did a factory reset so I can get all of my stuff on it. Once the phone rebooted, it shows the Samsung loadup screen with a yellow exclamation point at the bottom of the screen, then goes to a screen that says "Android" on it, then it seemingly turns off. I can't get the phone to load up at all, it just goes to that Android screen and goes black. Any ideas on how I can get this back up and running? Thanks in advance to anyone that can help.
Hold power and vol down, then hit vol up and you should be in odin mode. Just flash a new kernel and rom with that using odin. There are plenty of en in the development section. I like stock rooted deodexed rom with LoSt kernel
Sent from my Galaxy S2
Thanks for the response. I did that and it shows a screen that says "Downloading...Do not turn off target!!". I presume I have to flash the ROM from my home computer since I'm at work right now. Is that normal that you would have to reflash a rom after doing a factory reset? I did that on my Evo that was rooted and the ROM that was on the phone originally still loaded up like normal.
FYI: it has Zedomax v3 for the kernel. I think I will try out the stock setup you suggested once I get home.
in most cases u dont realy need to do wipe date( factory reset) but i dont think is the wipe data messed up ur phone. i could wrong tho when did a factor reset did u wiped the internal storage too? that might cause the problem

When you have a custom rom you never want to do a factory restore as it is not a factory rom ..... Use odin to flash a stock rom or download one and put it on micro sd and use cwm to install ... Vol up and power

I didn't realize it would do that. Is it necessary to have a microSD card to install a new ROM? Also, I am looking to have the stock software on this phone, but still keep it rooted to be able to use the hotspot.

Yes that is the rom for installing in cwm...., now about sd card go into cwm and mount internal and hook up to computer with usb .....the newer cwm versions can do this some of the first one could not .....if your computer then sees the phone put room on internal and flash if not then you will have to odin or use card

***UPDATE***
I tried downloading the completely stock EG-30 Tar and installed it via Odin. Now I see the Sprint boot screen but it just keeps looping over and over. Im going to try to reinstall again and see what it does....
OK you need ah stock rom and will unroot so you can start from the beginning. It happens to me all the time.

I'm not entirely sure. He doesn't remember what ROM he had, only the kernel (Zedomax v3) that he had installed. I tried doing the deodexed package first and nothing happened. When I went to the stock package it changed the boot screen to the Sprint version but just loops endlessly. Had I not done the factory reset I would've had more details but I haven't been able to load up anything since then.

Hmm ec05 sometimes things take a while are you sure your download is complete its like 290mbs and are you doing it properly only auto reboot checked. If you are then id say give it like 5-8 minutes if it hangs then try another usb port and keep on it hopefully it will kick it in there. Just to make sure your using the victory pit file and have the pda checked and the ec05.tar in the file right?

This happens to me once in a while. Just switch usb ports. ALSO AVOID USING THE EXTENDED USB PORTS!. Those are the ones in the front off the PC case or on the side. Use the ones directly from the motherboards, meaning use the ones in the back off the pc case. Restart your PC also. If those 2 fail, buy a new usb cord. Also, ive had odin stay at modem forever but pulling the battery out and booting the phone and all is ok. Weird. But happens.

Use the one-click method to get you back to EL29, since you're coming from an ICS ROM back to GB you should use the full rather than the no-data. One you've done that, then download and extract the autoroot tool and follow the prompts to get you to the unrooting. Make sure you have USB debugging turned on before using autoroot.

When you plug the phone in while in Odin mode, are you getting the yellow highlighted box with COMxx in it to indicate the computer is recognizing your phone?
Another possible path is to pop out your sdcard, put it into the computer and load up some files that can be flashed via recovery (if you have recovery installed) then reinsert the card, hold power and volume up button to boot into recovery and flash a new build that way.
I've been trying to use the one click option, my phone is recognized but it won't proceed to completetion, i guess it's bricked. Is there anything i can do?
So let me get this straight. You put your phone into Odin/download mode, start the one click, and it fails? Does Odin notice your phone while in Odin/download mode?

Okay if it is recognizing your phone then try downloading another one-click and using it, or even re-downloading the same one you already have.
So even if my device is bricked it will load this, as long as odin recognizes it?
I recently acquired an Epic 4G Touch that wouldn't boot into the stock ROM. I thought "Awesome! The ROM must be corrupted. I'll just Odin it back to stock and have a new SG2." Well, I tried Odining it back to stock. I tried the Gingerbread EL29 stock tar image and it hung on the Sbl.bin. I thought maybe my download was just corrupt but after trying 2 other GB odin images it still wouldn't flash. Then I tried flashing CWM recovery through odin and that hung at NAND Write Start. I've switched cables, USB slots and computers. I'm at a loss as to why this is happening. I would really like to get this phone running so I can upgrade my SGS1.
Edit- Just to clarify, I never tried to flash anything through CWM. I tried flashing a kernel that had CWM through Odin.
I put the ROM into the PDA slot. Here's what happened in Odin:

I hope the best for you.

Thank you for the response. I cannot get into my recovery and my phone will not flash anything in Odin without some sort of error. I think it hosed. He mentioned sending it off for a jtag repair? What exactly is that?

This is very confusing... How are you trying to flash with CWM if you can't get into recovery mode?
What exactly is happening with the device when you try to power it on?
What happens when you try to go into download mode using Vol down+power?
What happens when you try to get to recovery using vol up+power?

Agreed.
Op - You're trying to write to the phone and, my guess is, you're making a bad situation worse since your getting partial writes. Especially that first screen where pit was mapped and partial flash took, such as boot.
Dont know where crawrj is, but try reaching out to Garwynn. He knows A LOT.

What? When did I say I was flashing through CWM? I've never even been able to boot to CWM. I said I was trying to flash CWM through download mode which failed. When I try to boot, it sticks at the Samsung Galaxy S2 kernel load screen. When I try to boot into recovery it sticks at the Samsung Galaxy S2 kernel load screen.

Sorry. I misread the OP.
Ok. Try this to get into Recovery
Press and hold the vol up+power button until the splash screen shows up
After the splash shows release the power button and then continue to hold the vol up button. It should take you right to recovery.

I've done this atleast 20 times (21 now after this post) and it just sticks at the Samsung Galaxy S2 screen. I'm sure I screwed it even further by trying to flash CWM recovery. When I first got it, it booted into the recovery screen but wouldn't actually fully load into recovery. I would just get the Android character but no text. These are the weirdest issues I've ever had with an Android device.

That is very strange...
Do you have an external SD card installed? If so, remove it and try to boot into recovery again.

Still no luck :|
It fails every time it trys to flash files to the NAND memory. Does this mean the internal storage is screwed?

That is possible. You can try to call Sprint and tell them you/a friend was trying to update to ICS and rebooted and it wont boot fully. Act dumb and see if they will replace it. Since it won't boot to anything at all, there is really no way for them to tell. Just say that you bought it from said friend. It is worth a shot. I have done it before with AT&T when I screwed up a Captivate doing a hardware mod.
I just told them that I bought it online and tried to update it but after the update, it wouldn't power on. They let me replace it.

Either that or try J-Tag. But I don't know if that will fix it.
That and it's 50 bucks and a time to wait..

OK I will definetly try that, thanks. If they don't replace it, I will just sell it for parts and keep using my Epic 4G. Thanks for all of your help
Wait oh wait I have a few questions myself lol what odin are you using? Did you try any one clicks? Did you try removing the sd card and then odin? Did you try to leave battery out all night then try odin again with no sdcard?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I tried 2 different versions of Odin;1.x and 3.x. I used multiple one clicks. I pulled the sd card before flashing. I had to buy a battery for it when I got it and the previous owner had kept the battery out of it for at least a month. I really appreciate all answers but I really feel like I've tried everything :|

It is possible using a pit file would help. The pit file from when this phone came out would be best. Then run a gb rom in odin along with the pit. If you find the pit link it here before you use it. Wouldn't want more problems.

One Click restores are built with the proper pit of 9-16-11. But it sounds like he's already tried multiple builds.
Flashing each component isn't a bad suggestion but with using the pit, I wouldn't necessarily use just a rom, I'd use a tar since it would contain everything needed to restore the bootloader (boot, Sbl, param, recovery..)
Or try flashing an built bootloader to see if he could get back into recovery alone. There are a few already made in RWilco's Repo..
Anyone out there that can help with the Note 2 SGH-T889 .pit file? Thanks in advance, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Edited: I need the file, a download link would be appreciate it.

Is this to be used only with heimdall or with a PC and Odin as well? Thanks!
Both heimdall and odin, why do you need this file for ?

Well, I mistakenly flashed a file that was supposed to fix the wifi when in the leaked 4.3 roms a while back, but I flashed the 7100 one, and messed everything up. I was still able to get to them rom and all but eventually was just able to get to the custom recovery and thats it, now it just stays at the logo screen. I think I messed up the efs and some other things
I can still connect to a PC thru Odin and it recognizes the phone just fine, I can get to the custom recovery too and flash roms but it never passes the splash screen of that rom.
You can try emergency recovery through Kies or flash stock ROM and then flash flash whatever you want.

I have flashed countless original Stock Roms, with every file they come with, and still hangs
I think it might have to do with the internal sd partion, Im hoping the .pit file fixes that? Not sure.

Have you tried a factory reset? Sometimes even after Odin I've had to factory reset. By the way since u flashed the wrong bootloader have you flashed the full stock from Sam mobile?

Is not that I flashed a wrong bootloader, but yes, I have flashed our 4.3 bootloaders, even our 4.1 bootloader and it always hangs. I did a factory reset, I clean the internal sdcard, nothing, still hangs.
I know my EFS is messed up, it says it when I try to mount in the recovery, it even says it in the regular recovery, but it was loading the rom before with a messed up EFS.
I now have a Note 3 but I have taken upon myself to revive my Note 2
I can't get the .pit file to work usin Odin, it always fails, also I believe my system partition is not mounting at all, nor does the preload partition.
I second ciphercodes Kies recovery idea.

And, just to be clear, that was following the emergency recovery process? There is the kies update, apart from the emergency recovery process. I hate to give up on a device...

It just wont connect to Kies. Remember, I can't load up a rom, so Im trying to connect using download mode. It says connecting and stays like that, I think it might be dead
