I don't really have any answers, but have a few questions that might get others to chime in... I am assuming you're pics were on the internal memory? If being rooted will help, one idea I have would be to Odin a "no data" rooted one-click. I don't want you to try it until someone confirms it won't touch the area where you want to recover the pics.

I would flash a CWM and Mount your usb through that...

What gray said. And besides the kernel you flash stop doing anything else with it. Wouldnt want you to overwrite the lost pics. The kernel is el26.

If he's not rooted what should he use? One-click el26 ??

Make sure its the kernel only. You dont need the whole rom.

Nah im capable of doing it, just wanting to know if i can do it without downloading one clicks...

I would think you need to Odin a custom kernel/recovery then flash a super user.zip file. Also you would need to get the super user app from the playstote

Never mind they have odin one clicks for kernels

Hi everyone
Is there a way to hard brick my S2?
For testing purpose. Would appreciate
Feel free to PM just as well if the topic is not good here
update: forgot to mention, I can't use any USB type of flashing. My USB is not working for some reasons. So anything from recovery or type in shell should do. thanks again
Well, had to do a double take to make sure I was reading this thread correctly :what: Easiest way is to flash a ROM not intended for our phone. If you read all the "Help, I bricked my phone " threads, they usually flashed one for the I9100 or SG3. Now, you don't plan to use this info for malicious reasons, right? :sly:

Flash an .pit file, that will brick it for sure, you can also flash a recovery not intended for the T989, that will not boot up for sure.

Actrully found it I used a app called framaroot.

Interesting. It's worth a shot OP. Worst case, it fails and you uninstall. If it is successful, you can install mobile odin, then get the latest gb27 tar, and money. While you're at it, you will have to flash a cwm custom jb kernel, since you're on ics, and, MO won't flash modems, you'll need a jb modem to use data on gb27. Download the zip though of the modem . Good luck, let us know how it goes.

Hopefully it works for you. I don't see why it wouldn't. Might be more complicated but it worked for me. but of course YMMV. Just follow what jdsingle76 said you you'll be good to go.

Are you using the cable that comes with the phone? I assume you're using a/the stock ROM; if not, what ROM are you using.
Yeah, it's always worked.

I'm wondering if maybe I can just flash another Rom/kernel and see if that works. It just scares me cuz if the computers don't see it, I'm screwed, can't even Odin back to stock.

Although I'm not on stock, I noticed yesterday when trying to upload a few pretty large files that my phone wasn't being recognized either. I plugged it in and unplugged it a few times and it just "magically" decided it wanted to be detected the last time.
