unrooting T-Mobile T989 - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I have done this before. But now for some reason Odin won't find my phone. It says added. Then I load the PDA. And it fails. My phone is on download mode. I am running the latest ics official rooted and have super user. Also when I try kies it finds the phone. Finds the jb update. It downloads then I notice it says to connect a device on the background as the front window just hangs at 100%. When I try to go into download mode manually I can't get into it. Only when I use a widget to reboot into download mode. Downloaded the drivers. I also uninstalled kies. Re installed kies. Installed drivers separetly and nothing.
The phone connects and I can read my files
I'm thinking. USB drivers. Idk
Can anyone help me?

OK weird thing. I got home from work. I put the phone on download mode. Hit start on Odin and it just installed no problems. Go figure.

I have no idea wat to do heeelp!!!

Here is my problem. It all started a few days ago. My phone's drivers on the computer got all messed up. I reinstalled it and thought nothing of it. Today I was guna flash a new rom on. I odin my phone to do a clean install. Then i rooted it to ext4. (After the fact i realized i had clicked the wrong file and loaded di18) However then my bro wanted to use my computer for his epic to odin it too. So i can't load my phone cause its in ext4. I can't fix the drivers because its in download mode and can't get into regular mode. And I can't odin it back because odin wont' recognize it because of my drivers. Its a circle of pain. Is there anything I can do?
After thinking about it will loading a di18 ext4 rom work to fix it?
Reinstall the drivers. And odin ec05 pre rooted. If ur in download mode its fine. Just delete the drivers reboot your pc re install the drivers put your phone into download mode and connect too your usb cable. Your phone doesn't have too be in "regular" mode as you callled it
There aren't any DI18 EXT4 roms. There isn't any EXT4 support for Eclair.
Redownload the Drivers then run ODIN. Install one of the pre rooted .tars.
http://www.multiupload.com/A9VPX4G2ZW here's the ec05 ext4 pre rooted tar
driver
i already redownloaded drivers it kept on not installing saying failing to install.
Ok download the link I gave u for ec05 tar. Put the tar in pda. Make sure u have the pit file selected as well.
And when u open odin. If your phone connects it'll be a yellow box saying com whatever could be com 6 or com 8. Also only have auto reboot checked nothing else
Sounds like your not using odin properly. Here Is a video showing you exactly what too do.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQ2g6J1JgjU

Uninstall the drivers first and reboot.
fixed but new issue
I managed to. Fix it by using another computer and my dads phone to install drivers. Btw I already knew how to get in dl mode use odin root flash roms and all of that. My problem came from the fact thatb odin didn't recognize my phone in dl mode on my main computer. Now onto my new issue. Last night after I fixed the phone I had a small pinl blotch on the topleft o my phone. Now the blotch. Has spread to my whole phone along with blue and purple dots almost like its leaking. Is the lcd broken? Any ideas?
Ditch odin and learn to use heimdall
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
best way to fix this is to uninstall the usb root hubs in the device manager and reboot. that's for the driver issue...

Firmware update failure via Kies
Hello everyone!
I was trying to update my SGSII GT-I9100 (Gingerbread) to ICS 4.0.4 via Kies. Kies worked well during the downloading part and then it got stuck with nill progress while installing. I had no other option than to disconnect. And now when I switch on the phone it says:
(mobile)--!--(PC)
"Firmware upgrade ecountered an issue. please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I connected the phone again and my desktop is not recognizing it anymore.
What I get from all this is that there is no Stock firmware or something like that and the phone can go into download mode only.
Can anyone help?

Just so you know as this is your first post I would like to say welcome now moving forward this issue is quite rampid on the web and honestly if you did a little searching you would of found a crap load of things to try. First thing I would tell you is since you can get into download mode is download Odin and flash stock firmware back on your phone. In your forum there has to be a restore to stock thread and this is what I would look for first
Whoa GT-I9000?
Totally diffrent device, and wrong forum. Your on your way to HARD Bricking your phone if you don't find the correct forum. Believe me I know from past Experiences .
@MickeyCobra
Is your computer recognizing your phone? If not try this things:
Uninstall Drivers
Connect phone to computer with phone in download mode, and let Windows Auto-Search the Drivers
Recovered finally

Yeah, I got it fixed via recovery mode in Kies. I would suggest never try Kies for upgrading firmware, as it gets disconnected in between !
Thanks

Recovered finally. Now I am having ICS 4.0.4 on my phone.
I had a similar issue with my T989. When I was flashing back to a stock rom through Odin, the connection between my phone and computer got disrupted. I received the error and was told to upgrade the firmware through Kies. I tried to reinstall the stock rom through Odin, and kept getting a failed installation. So I tried again and again and finally it went through. I prefer to keep away from Kies.

I hate to say it but it sounds like it might be a brick.
Are you getting the flashing blue light with a blank screen when you try to boot our are you getting a boot loop? Are you able to boot into Recovery?
no it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in kies & try again. " i cant boot into recovery, i can into dl mode. ima try a different comp.

If you're getting that message I can tell you its not going to work. It sounds like you were trying to flash the international version kernel for the SGSII rather than the Epic 4G Touch. When you try to flash the international version it will fail and gives you the error you're getting. Another unfortunate side-effect is that it ruins your USB (due to differences in the way the USB works). I've heard that some JTAG services can fix it but I haven't done it myself.
At this point you unfortunately are stuck with a brick. :-(
Sorry!
I might have misunderstood the other posts but I thought flashing the international version completely disabled the USB port. Yet OP seems that device is being picked up in Windows but not successfully installed.
OP, can you please confirm? Check Device Manager and look for a device with a yellow exclamation point or triangle (if Win). If you can see it here you may just need to reinstall the Samsung drivers and get it installed that way. At the worst you're not any further along than you were before...
Alternatively you could try updating the driver manually, search C:\Program Files\SAMSUNG to see if it picks up.
If you haven't done so already, uninstall Kies and download the full Samsung driver suite from here:
http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...342248/Sprint_d710_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0.exe
Install the driver and maybe we can help you from there. Or if it works, there ya go.
I just went through this...what happened on my end:
-computer froze up while i was doing stock odin repack
-went to boot up phone and that messaged flashed
what i did:
-flashed stock el26 kernel(if you can't get into odin but pull the battery and keep trying..thats what i did)
-flash a rom like you normally would
PROFIT!

[Q] Help with flashing rom!!!

Hi guys. Im a noob, first post here and need some help. Be searching all day for how to load a stock rom to my device GT-N5110.
Heres the low down.
Purchased in Australia. No samsung updates applied.
Successfully rooted with framaroot.Was running framaroot for more than a month
Install busy box today in normal mode I think. I chose the safe option.
Edited build.prop product model so I could install Navigon
Navigon working fine
Now..........
Unable to change the product name back using es explorer or file expert.
Thought it would change after restart but device entered bootloop. I think busybox was the culprit. Should have looked up what its all about.
Discovered recovery mode and did factory data reset. Can access odin screen on device too.
Device boots but hangs on language selection screen
I have found and downloaded stock rom for it that I found here somehow
I tried "Mrjraider" tutorial "how to flash back to a stock rom"
but odin crashes whenever I load the rom file and it wont recognize my GN8.0
Computer runs on windows 8. Kies is up to date too. Kies reconizes device but is unable to update or anything
Was running odin 4.43 with AriesVE.ops in compatabillity win xp sp3 with administrator .
can try on a win7 computer tomorrow.
This is the name of the file its about 1.2 Gb....... N5110UEDMD1_N5110XARDMD1_HOME.tar.md5 do I need to rename this or something
There was also a .dll that was in the package, whats with that?????
be looking through this forum all day and night and cant quite find what im looking for. If what I seek is here please point me to it. Or if any one here in Brisbane, can fix it for me,What are your thoghts? PM me.
Just want my baby back working again.
when it comes to phones, Kies and Odin never play nice together, so it may be the same with these things..
get kies completely off your computer, and your tablet, reboot, and try Odin again...also try a different cable and a different USB port if at first it doesnt work properly..
will give it a bash. cheers

[Q] The strangest BIGGEST problem

Hi All,
Device = GT-N7100
Been flashing my note 2 with several roms for ages now. However today decided I might try abit of STOCK 4.3. So went to Sammobile and downloaded UK BTU.
Flashed the file fine using ODIN 3.9
Started setting everything up and noticed the phone went to sleep and wouldn't wake up, so decided to clear cache and full data reset using the stock recovery.
Anyway started setting up wifi again etc. Left the phone and it went to sleep again and wouldn't wake up.
Then decided I will download the UK Vodafone from sammobile and see if that is any better.
So rebooted the phone into odin mode. plugged in my usb cable, noticed there was no bleeps from the pc. started odin 3.9. Nothing. No device listed.
Any way to cut a long story short, I cant side load when the phone is running I cant ADB to the phone and the only thing listed in "device manager" on my WIN 8 machine is "Android SMS" as a driver which says it is not working. I have uninstalled Samsung USB drivers gone through all the processes listed on the net.
I cannot get the phone to communicate with the PC at all. So changed computer and it automatically installed Android SMS... on the new machine.
So at the moment im stuck with GLITCHY stock firmware and cannot root / cant side load via USB or anything... HELP!!
Also I cannot enable bluetooth, so I cant send a file like that.
Ok problem solved by sheer chance. When i let the phone boot normally I was getting 7 CDC drivers.
Looked these up and found this thread. Cured the problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1247547&page=3
Things have gone from BAD to WORSE
Well this morning downloaded a different STOCK UK N7100 ROM. Flashed this. Everything seemed to work correctly except it has got stuck in boot loop.
Now my main issue is it has locked me out again I need for the phone to boot so I can use the dialler to *#7284# to select USB and not MODEM.
When I boot into CWM it shows that SDCARD cannot be mounted and same with DATA.
When I am CWM or DOWNLOAD mode the laptop or PC does not recognise the device. Any ideads??? JTAG??:crying:
