[Q] Upgrade unsuccessful

Hello folks,
I came here to beg for help
I tried to upgrade my Galaxy S2 HD LTE using Kies to the last version of Jelly Bean (Korean model, SHV-E250L, I bought last year in Korea, so I came back to my hometown at Brazil), but it is stuck in the booting screen.
So, I have no idea to how I can reinstall the OS or maybe reset it to a safe point.
If there's a easy way to restore it, please let me know.
I really appreciate your help and comments.
Did the update process go ok, or did you get any error or disconnect cable during update?
In 99% of the cases performing a factory reset solves it. Just make sure to backup whatever you can, at this time.

You're in the wrong forum.
The SHV-E250L is the Galaxy Note 2 not Galaxy S2?
You're in the wrong forum, buddy. However, I suggest an Odin flash of the newest firmware. Still ain't fixed? Nandroid backup and wipe.
If the factory reset suggested above doesn't work, just download the latest custom rom for your device and flash via Odin.
You can find it here:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SHV-E250L
Make sure you factory reset and wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing the rom.
Cheers e boa sorte

Thanks a lot again. This topic can be closed now :laugh:

no i didnt i only wiped it after flashing trying to solve the s note problem, my phone is really tilting and i dunno what to do, tried reflashing and wiping multiple times but no use!
If you come from custom rom, then wipe data and cache partition is required before flashing stock roms. Else some part of last roms remain in system and can create problems.
You can also try by clear data of snote from application setting section.

i had same kind of problem with s note after flashing it with a custom ROM in my gtn 8000. It troubled me alot but finally got the solution by installing languages in keyboard setting.
go to setting>language and inputs >click on settings of Samsung keyboard>choose Handwriting> choose Input languages
u will see lot of languages to download.
download any one of them........................ wait for finishing installation...
Hope it works for u as it did for me.
if does nt work no hard feelings..
I had the same issue, reloaded firmware, clear data and cache with no fix. I thought about to do a factory reset, but just b4 I was going to do it. I suddenly have an idea just flashed in my mind. This is what I did.... go to setting > my device > S pen > put a check mark on the "Open Popup Note when the pen is detached". Then back to the home screen, pull out the S pen and a mini S note will open. Close it and now you should be able to open the regular S Note. It works on my Note 2. Good luck guys.

[Q] Galaxy GT-S7560 / Galaxy Ace 2

Default [Q] Phone won't boot, enter Recovery Mode, nor connect to PC - what do?
I followed a root-guide a couple of weeks ago and my phone worked perfectly.
I have no memory of what ROM I used, nor do I remember if I flashed a Kernel or not. I'm pretty new at this.
Now, today, my phone sent a notification that a new firmware update was available. Stupid as I am I just press "install" right away. Not much later my phone tried to reboot and suddenly was stuck at the Samsung logo screen. I tried pulling out the battery to reboot and it still wouldn't work. If I connected it to my PC it shows a battery but the spinning arrow-thingy is frozen.
After searching these forums and other places I found several guides on how to fix stuff like this, by either flashing with a new kernel - or rom or w/e I don't know - or going into recovery mode and do something funky. The problem is that I can't reach recovery mode at all, and when I enter download mode it's just frozen at "Downloading..." and I can't get it to connect to my PC at all (tried both with and without Kies). In Odin the ID:COM cells won't update when I connect my phone.
Do you guys have any idea how to resolve this? Do I have to take it to a service centre?
Edit: The phone is out of battery, suddenly, apparently, so I tried to charge it, but that doesn't work either. What the **** has happened to my phone? Please help if you can!

I've got the same problem as the listed above. I did root my Phone (it's an Galaxy Trend) and then after i wanted to install an custom rom... It was the kitkat 4.1 or something? But then after when i was about to reboot my phone did not start at all. The samsung logo pops-up and it is an yellow triangle on the very bottom. And i've read so many forums and threads and tried various usb modes, adb recovery tools, recovery bootloader's and so on. But none of them does work. And i can't bring my phone to service either. And for a fact i did use Odin and it did work great when i rooted but what should i do? I can boot into download mode and use odin to "transfer" an new rom/zip file but since i can't boot into recovery mode so how can i ever start my phone? I could continue only if my phone would boot into recovery mode.. and i did wipe/reset factory data too before the phone wouldn't start if that's any help for you. And i have all backup for my phone on my pc, all my system data, sd memory, apps and all data i could backup. Please help me, thanks in forward!

well because galaxy ace 2 is the same phone and system as galaxy trend and to root trend you have to follow galaxy ace 2 guide to succed rooting trend. it is simply just the same phone and you dont find any solutions if you search the web for trend because it onlycome solutions for galaxy ace.
No its totally different in hardware. Ace 3 is more like trend but definitely not ace 2...

If the phones are different, then you are risking a lot. Just because some method worked does not guarantee that all corresponding ones would. Do not complain if your phone gets bricked.

actually not. but i've tried with adb "boot recovery mode" tool but it only works if i could start my phone. that's just my problem, i cant start it so i cant us adb boot recovery tool to boot into recovery mode. but does JIT work in same way as adb or can you force to boot into recovery mode even if phone wont start and is off ?

Apologies if it sounded sarcastic. It was more out of concern than out of sarcasm. I have seen newbies fumbling around and flashing files of vastly different phones and then lamenting their loss. Just wanted to make sure you knew what you were getting into.
Anyways, I do not possess this phone so I can not help you further in this matter. But it would be prudent if you edited the main post to be more clear about your situation. :good:

[Q] What is that watermark I got

Hello
My note 8 bricked yesterday without any known cause and it was stuck on the galaxy note 8 start screen when I started it and clearing the cache and resetting it didn't work either so I downloaded an official firmware from sammobile and tried to flash it via odin.
the problem is I downloaded 3 different firmwares(4.4.2 and 4.2.2)from the website and every time I got like a watermark message and I can tab through it but it is really annoying and it is on the home screen all the time , I don't know what is it and I tried clearing cache and user data from recovery too but it didn't help
N5100XWDNE2_N5100OJVDNE2_XSG
N5100XWDNF1_N5100OJVDNF1_XSG
and another one I can't remember because I deleted it the first time
Thanks in advance

[Q] Return to stock SM-T900

Hi,
I have a Samsung Tab Pro 12.2. I rooted my tablet and i wanted lollipop so i got CyanogenMod Rom for Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 SM-T900 (v2wifixx).
Now I want to sell my tablet and return it back to stock. I tried the three Netherlands options from sammobile.com and used odin. Every time it says it was successful but when it boots up I get the Samsung logo and it stays in the screen and nothing happens.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thank you in advance.
Ronald
