Hi everyone.
I have a samsung galaxy S2, I tried to upgrade the Rom, but made mistake, now it boots up and stuck at "teamwin" logo. Would anyone please help: how to fix this. I appreciated for your help.

Hmm, if I'm correct and since you don't seem to be such an expert. You may have to use adb or some other android debugger to flash it from the computer. Better get searching on how to do that because I'm not going to explain how.

wow dude... were you ticked about something when you posted this? he was just asking for help man....
it sounds like your recovery got messed up. download the .img file for your phone, put it on download mode, flash the img in odin, reboot to recovery, reflash your rom. shouldnt be too bad to fix. Old thread i know, but i was just walking down the t-mob S2 memory land and saw this impolite response to a valid question

You can still be helpful even if you are sarcastic, take House on the TV series as an example.
Agreed, but if help isnt included with the sarcasm when someone asks an actual question, then don't bother posting

Did you do a factory reset in a custom recovery?

Assuming you have a custom recovery, you could try the following:
- boot into recovery
- push a rom (for instance: the CM version you have installed) to your /sdcard/ using adb
- flash it
If you have the toolkit install (found in the dev sec.) its gonna be a breeze to flash another rom or the stock nexus image

No idea why they stuck the toolkit on the dev section, it's nothing related to dev.........
And stop using the toolkit, at least learn how it works:

Why would he need the model number to fix this problem? The same methods will fix this whether he is on GSM or CDMA Nexus. Apparently you're the stupid one.
Hi,
Yesterday and today I was trying to unlock my AT&T Note II, first, I tried by this method (bit. ly /YSiR0M), but it didn't worked, so I decided to call AT&T to see if they could give me an unlock code. As I expected, I got it, so when I went to unlock my Note 2 the phone told me "Network unlocked successfully" but kept saying in the notification bar that was blocked and could not call, send messages, nothing. I thought it was software problem, so I upgraded to the latest official samsung ROM, but as I suspected, did not work, the message was appearing again in the notification bar. Then I decided to rooting my Note II and install a Recovery to see if a Custom ROM might solve the problem, but again, nothing. I tried everything, software, unlock code, the tutorial above, and nothing. My carrier is Movistar Venezuela and bought the phone in Miami, from AT&T.
Thanks for the help, Daniel Arocha
Im not sure the free unlock method world's for most people maybe try to flash a rom and try again I'm thinking there must be something in your software that is blocking you from unlocking

You posted a link that has nothing to do with the op's question, further muddying the waters. There's nothing in the everything thread that references unlocking scenarios, thus you've done nothing to help the op and you were disrespectful doing so. Shame on you.

Try getting a new sim card and see if that works.
I know this question has been answered hundreds of times but I can't figure this out on my own. I used the stickies above and it still wont work
I went to flash MMuzy Rom and i flashed the ToroPlus instead of Toro and my Clockwork mod deleted my back up.
ADB Wont push to my phone for some reason either, a list of prompts comes up in the CMD promp.
Please please help
Thanks
did you wipe before flashing the rom?
syntax for adb
adb push c:\locationoffile\file.zip \sdcard\
Yes I did and i used that and nothing, I am trying to use the GNEX Tool but it is stuck on Waiting for Device

I heard that if you enter "up up down down left right left right b a start select" into the toolkit it gives your phone infinite RAM.
Issue resolved.
I used the Gnex tool and restored with fast boot.

has anyone here been able to unlock a pin locked screen? I changed my pin and forgot it. I own this Sprint galaxy S3, i can verify that with a sprint rep and account. How can I unlock the screen without a hard reset?
No, I dont get the option to enter my gmail account to unlock.

tried it, over 40 times, not luck. is there any other way?
one youtube video shows using a site calld FGM service and for a fee, if you give them your IME number they will unlock the phone. Anyone here tried this before or know about this service?
I would not give any info to anyone, if it were me. As for other ways, I dont know of any but the method in the link above worked for me when I tested it on my sisters S3
Just throwing this out there no idea if it will work but I'm guessing it would if worse comes to worse. Flash the a stock or rooted tar in Odin from freeza.

You're in luck, my friend. Our mighty qbking77 has created a set of videos with just what you need in his thread over here. They are easy to follow. The main thread on how to root is here. Just watch and read all you can before starting, and make sure not to use international ROMs on your Sprint phone (this causes a hard-brick and many facepalms here on XDA)

thanks for the help so far but just tried and got stuck again.
Question, I got into the "Android system recovery <3e>" menu and the back-up option is not listed.....
Is there another way to back-up? or am I out of luck and have to do a hard reset from same menu?
You can root it through ODIN (in download mode) and then flash a recovery

I can enter fastboot and flashmode but anything I try to flash fails.

As far as I know you need an unlocked bootloader to flash a custom kernel. You can find answers in the Q&a, help and troubleshooting thread. Lots of topics on rooting and stuff. Just use search.

So you bricked your phone huh? That's a shame. I've only bricked a phone once, back in 2007 I accidentally wiped the NAND completely on my Sony Ericsson Z800i, and then rebooted it...
So, are you gonna buy a new Z1 Compact or are you done with Z1 Compacts now that you've bricked yours?

I don't agree. He can try flashing the original ROM via fastboot. He can do some research in the thread I pointed out. No need to give up just yet. And no need to be so rude, if someone tries to help.

I know it wasn't you, I was just sarcastically reminding you that his phone is "bricked" (hence the [/s] at the end). But it was uncalled for anyway, My apologies all round.
Possible phone states the way I see it:
Brick - Literally unfixable.
Soft brick - Broken but fixable with special tools.
Not booting - OPs phone.
People shouldn't be assessing their phones as "bricked" because it implies there's no point to their post.

Could be completely unhelpful but I had similar after I rooted mine, I hard reset the phone holding the off switch down where the sim card goes and all was good. Sorry if youve tried that.
