Try to put your phone in download mode, using the key combination (volume up/volume down) at the same time, then plug in your USB cable that will put you in download mode, and then use Odin to flash Bubby stock kernel. If you have access to recovery, (volume up/volume down/power) and let go the power as soon you can see the Samsung logo, then just flash the last ROM you were using before your mistake. This is if you already have a ROM that you can flash via CWM in the SDCARD of your phone. If you don't have a CWM ROM in your SD Card ODIN is your best friend. Hope this can help you.

You can try to exchange calling Tmobile and tell them that something wierd happen to your phone, and you don't know what is going on. Don't tell them about the flashing; that happened to me one time with my Vibrant, and they exchanged no questions asked. No charges or fees. Hope this can help you.

Nice! New phone, over night shipping, and lesson learned! I'm still waiting for my phone to be mailed here... They say Wednesday

Nice, Samsung loses some money, the world dies due to carbon emissions from delivery and you get a replacement phone for the one you broke.

They are trained to say that. If you call tech support they will also say the same thing.. Which is highly doubtful that out of the millions of customers you would be the first with phone issues.

[Q] Bricked SGS2?

So... I was trying to port a skyrocket ROM to our device with CM9.1.0 as the base. I just flashed it on my device. Flash went fine. I thought it would be fine... However, when I hit reboot, nothing. Black screen. I don't know what happened. It doesn't seem to be responding to any commands. I'm trying a ton of things. I can't figure out anything... Somebody, answers please? Can I do anything? A jig maybe? Really hope this isn't the end for my SGS2...
Edit - Tmobiles generously sending me a new one for 5$.

I'm thinking you may have jumped the gun a little on the "getting a new phone from Tmobile"
I'm sure you've tried taking th ebattery out and holding the volume buttons with the power button and trying to get into recovery or download mode?
Also the Jog in my opinion would have helped as a last resort, XDA is filled with so much usefull info that it would prob have been better to get the phone working on your own so you can see why it happened.
I'm willing to bet it just got stuck on some kind of boot loop....But since your getting a new phone I'm sure your going to be nervous rooting the new one....Nothing learned

Turns out, I had technically flashed a Skyrocket ROM (my port). Nothing can be done about that... Lesson learned: Don't port from skyrocket's stock ROMs.

Hard bricked phone

Here are the circumstances. Was on Stock Deodexed and out of boredom wanted to try SlimNote2. Did a nandroid before flashing SlimNote2.
Flashed SlimNote2 only wiping Dalvik and Cache. Made sure the MD5 matched before doing so. The install was shaky...I had to reboot twice before the phone would finally boot to the main homescreen. At this point I had seen enough and decided to get back into TWRP to restore the nandroid I had just made. IDK WTF happened but a few seconds after the restore began it aborted. Not sure whether my hand swiped something it shouldn't of or what but it just abruptly aborted. Now I when I try to do a normal power up of the phone I'm just stuck at the main boot screen (black background with white letters: Samsung Galaxy Note 2)
I tried to boot up with volume up and volume down to get into either recovery or Download Mode but it's a no go on either.
I'm thinking my only choice is to bring this thing into Sprint and play dumb. Any suggestions or advice would be appreciated!

Assuming that you know about download mode, I'm guessing you know about Odin - but you're not able to get into download mode.
Have you tried pulling the battery for 2 minutes then reinstalling it and trying to get into download mode?
or
Have you tried pulling the battery, and hooking up the usb cable (from your computer) to your phone and again trying to get into download mode without the battery installed?
These were both tricks of "un-bricking" Sammy's Epic 4g (my current phone - hopefully soon to be replaced w/the note 2).
Hope either option gets you back on track!

thanks but both methods not working.

...same deal with trying to get into recovery?
If so, leave the battery off for longer, maybe 10mins.
The fact that you can get the splash screen up is a great sign, most true bricks are...true bricks (nothing happens).

Are you holding down volume up or down + home key + power? I believe it is a 3 button press for stock roms to get into recovery or download mode...

didn't realize it involved the Home key as well...unfortunately I may have jumped the gun with this.
Impulsively I took the phone to Sprint convinced that they would be unable to do anything with the phone. I was wrong. They apparently got the phone into Download mode and realized that there is a custom OS on there. They asked if I tampered with the phone and I said NO. They went on to say that if the phone is rooted my warranty will be voided. I think I may have made a big mistake by leaving my phone there <punches self in nutsack!>
Sooooooooo aggravated right now I can't even tell you guys!

Dang, you went from starting the thread all the way to dropping your phone off with sprint in a hour or two? You should still be fine. Theyll probably give you crap about it. Is your insurance through them?

sooooooooo, if they void your warranty, get your phone back and it is a 2 minute fix. you'll just be out a warranty and not a phone.

Yeah, I'm an impulsive jackass! So after one of you guys pointed out that I wasn't trying to access recovery/download mode properly I sprinted back to Sprint (bad pun intended.) Of course the store was closed already but the employees were still in there. Lucky for me one of them came over to the door and entertained me. I told the guy I just wanted my phone back and he said he couldn't service it because it had a custom ROM. Then he showed me my custom rom as he handed the phone back (it was in TWRP...dumb bastid don't know the difference between recovery and a rom :cyclops I was happy to the phone was in recovery.
Sure enough I went back home, threw in my SD card and just restored my last nandroid w/o a problem!
Wow, I feel like a real fool. I was so used to entering recovery/download mode with 2 buttons I totally forgot that this phone called for a 3 button method to enter recovery. I thank all you guys for the feedback!

Ya, just get your phone back, and it doesn't void their responsibility of trying to assist you in getting the phone operable again. Maybe void your warranty with Samsung. If it were me, I would rather try to revive the phone myself than let them try to load the stock rom on it. Just take what the6 say with a grain of salt, some of these techs want to try to make you think you've committed a felony by opening the OPEN android os...
Believe me, I know, I own a Service Center. I always enjoy the modders that come in and talk about what is working , not working etc. Or when they try to say they didn't do anything to their device, knowing we know, then they find out we are " pro modding" and its a good experience for everyone. We find it a challenge to unbrick bad flashes and mistakes. ..
Good luck with it, pm me if you need help with an exchange, etc.

Hey no problem, I've been there myself, asking wtf is wrong, great, I bricked it ! Then ding ding... oh ya, it was THAT. Sometimes I am working on several different devices , roms, and mods within minutes of each other, swapping back and forth -off odin with one, flashing into recovery on the next, moving a rom to an sd card on another. ... and each device having its own quirks, its easy to forget the little things. Glad you got up and running again. At least the store let you get your phone back after close. Its always fun to look up after close and see a customer standing there rattling the door- never know what your going to get, lol.

Haha at this thread.. Entertaining to read.. I swear I hate dealing with a print reps and hearing their ignorant thoughts about rooting.. One lady said I better not root my phone or we won't deal with it.. I'm like she doesn't know about triangle away and stock tars lmao

[Q] Screen is unresponsive with finger

I was running the tweeked rom on my Note 2 and was loving it, was running great for a few days...
Today the screen froze when I went to unlock and check a missed call. I am unable to get any response from my finger, nothing... The S pen does work though.
T-mobile tech knew nothing about how to fix it. I tried a different rom and still the same.
Any suggestions? Calibration? Anything? Thanks so much.

As it exists across roms, it regrettably sounds like a hardware issue. Have you tried flashing a stock odin? Likely won't help but it might be worth a shot.

Thanks for the reply. I am afraid that is a pretty big problem too, related to hardware. 10 minutes before the finger freeze I was just realizing how much I loved the phone with the Tweaked Rom and totally set-up.
Anyways, it's going back to T-mobile. I used Odin to flash to stock and used Triangle Way to reset the flasher... Now I am scared to root it and run a rom on the new one, but I know it was just a freak incident...
Just sucks, I hate getting a refurb replacement... I don't know what dirty, grungy, smelly pocket it's been in for a couple months, uh...

I had an issue on my first note 2 where the top right and left of the screen couldnt register the s pen, had to send the phone back. I flashed jedi as soon as i got the second one and been happy ever since.
Moral of the story, DONT WORRY AND FLASH AWAY. ur right, it was a freak accident and it wont happen again.

There are many threads about doing all this already. Want to know why no one wants to help? It is because a simple search will give you all the info you need.
This might seem rude but is important. No one wants to hold your hand when everything you need is already here on xda. If it would have been a new issue you would have gotten plenty of help.

I know how you feel, sometimes when I look for help here I get it right away.... other times its like crickets. I do use the search I can never find what I am looking for and when I do find it. I wonder if it still is good information w/ current firmware updates. My advise to you is to hand around and help people who need it. I just got my NOTE 2 ( my htc one cracked so I sold it) and Im learning as I go..

Thanks but Kingo Root does not work. I did some research and some Sprint versions of the Note 2 the Kingo Root does not work.

Something I did

Sorry for the dealy just came off 24 duty..well firat make sure the battery you have is charged I know the link the guy gave before is good but thats if your phone will turn on..what i did was hold the power button and the home button and volume down and that trigger the phone into download mode.. and if it don't on the first tryn then take the battery out hold the power button and the home button to hard rest and then afterwards hold the power button for 1 minute then try the firat step sometimes it take a few but its like a override so to say..once you get it back install and factory MC2 rom to get it back to stock so you can start from the beginning... One thing i notice with this rom there alot of reboots so what i do i reboot my phone at least 3 to 4 times a day just to keep it stable hope this helps

one thing i learn

one thing i found out if you ever need a starting point find a reliable MC2 stock rom which i use a Kies Official stock rom and have mobile odin pro to get back to stock asap when ever your realizing something going haywire while your away from home..always when your ealize you have a good thing going with a custom Rom make a back up on your external sd car and copy on your PC.. these thing help me from having too many issues.also if you get on a stock 4.3 rom and what to down grade follow the forum {ROM}{TEAM REJECTZ}{LORJAY589}(MK4 Rom Odex/Deodex 12/2)(Note3 Rom Post #6 1/12) this will help you remove knox.. then you want to flash a offical MC2 4.1.2 just in-case you have a warranty issues with 4.3. You might know things thing but i share as much as i can cause i forget alot my self..lol:laugh:
