[Q] Mysterious problems with used Phone... HELP!

Hi guys!
So, my sister got a Galaxy Ace II yesterday with some ode stuff, then I decided to install Cyanomod 11, BUT more problems appered:
1 - My Windows 7 (64bits) doesn't recognize the drivers.. so it no even list the phone as conected. I tried using Kies to detect and a bunch of packages of drivers of this smartphone model, but till now haven't made any progress... what can I do?
2 - I reseted the phone to original especifications by his own menu and tried to acess its Download and Recovery mode by pressing the 3 buttons at the same time(Vol UP + Home + Power), but for my surprise it didn't boot like it should, jus initializing normaly...what can I do?
3 - I realized, when it booted, that the boot animation has been changed, samsung logo doesn't apper ever and including I found some stuff installed that doesn't seem to be something that generic stock roms have instaled; this made me think that the room installed is not its stock. If that's so, maybe the problems listed above are resolved, but still so I don't know what to do...
I want to install Cyanomod 11, but need the phone recognized for Windows, it rooted and in download mode, but haven't find a way to begin if my computer doesn't reconize it...
Any Help?

Yes, I hold the 3 buttons at once and waited to it boot, but it jus performed the normal boot, it didn't get into download or recovery mode... I tried many times, but it's always the same...
And I know that CM has it's own boot animation, I know it, but it's not it this time... it's another one... and for what I know, it's not the samsung original one...
Having Kies installed is counterproductive to installing flashing drivers (and if you sync contacts and calendars with Google I can't even think of why you need it :angel
Try unplugging the cable while entering recovery, the LPM mode (charging while "off") screws it up (but download mode should work!)
And by "no Samsung logo", you mean not even the firmware's "Samsung GALAXY ACE 2 GT-i8160"? Sounds like you got a fake then...
But if it boots, you should check the Settings/About menu and tell us the "build version", often that's enough to know what ROM is on it now

Ryccardo, I installed Kies in the hope of having the drivers easylier recognized... But that was not my luck...
About that trick could you be more especific? Do I put the phone off with the cable plugged to PC and when I press both 3 buttons I unplug it?
About the version it is :
DM_BASE_12A_W12.43|sc6820_modem|11-02-2012
And this means that??? It's not the original one, right?
Thanks for the help in advance!

Recovery mode is: with power off, hold up+home+power (if it's on, it will reset since you're holding down power... keep holding it) and download mode is the same with down+home+power...
But that version is VERY dubious, the standard Ace never had "SC6820" (maybe it's the L model?) and I don't even think it was out at the start of 2012...

Strange, afaik galaxy ace 2 is shipped with 2.3.6 android.
Did you succed booting in downlaod mode ( Vol down + home + power )
you have to flash Stock JB and we will see what is going on

No, I still couldn't reboot it nor in download nor in recovery mode...
Even doing what Ryccardo said, it still boots normally..

So could you please post a photo of the sticker under the battery (preferably with the entire inside back of the phone showing)?

Ah, sorry, I remember how much the <10 post restrictions sucked
But back to your problem, this is not an Ace 2... I suspected it since you posted that version number:
Googling "sc6820_modem" has http://www.pandawillforum.com/archive/index.php?t-18643.html at the end of the 1st page
2nd post there mentions "Star I8160"
Googling "Star i8160" on images shows http://www.gldron.com/media/tmp/catalog/product/6/4/64cfade20f06e0e31ffd853fb1f8009a.jpg as 5th result... while searching the version number on images shows a lot of Samsung clones...
Unfortunately you have fake galaxy ace 2 (
You cant intall any rom on that device

You surely can't use roms from these forums... There may be other roms for your device but you'll have to find out what it actually is first, which can be somewhat difficult...
Poor sister of mine.. She won't be happy in knowing this...
Anyway I wanna thank you Ryccardo and Rox!
You both Saved me a bunch of tie searching a solution that doesn't existed...

Device Bricked or not?

hi guys I have an LG G Pad updated to kitkat officially, I have root it and I was installing the clockworkmod recovery using the recoveryinstaller.apk,
when I have tapped on flash recovery my device got stuck on black screen!!! I have tryied all buttons combination but nothing and the lg pc suite or mobiletool cannot do anything.......what I have to do?
Try to power off your g pad and turn it on again. If it get you to recovery mode, then you should connect it to your PC and try LG Support Tool to restore to factory kit Kat update.

If nothing else works, just enter Download mode and recover with LG Mobile Suite. To enter download mode:
1) With machine off, and cable plugged into the tablet but not into computer, hold volume up and down button at the same time (NOT power button).
2) Still holding the combination, plug into the computer. It will now enter Download mode. This can sometimes be tricky if the tablet won't stay off. The key is: on/off unplugged and still holding it-> plug into computer.
When you see the Download Mode on the screen (feel free to unplug the USB as it will now hold the mode until told otherwise), load the LG Mobile Suite and install the standard ROM.
Hi i tryied to put the device in download mode but the pc won't recognize it I can hear the sounds of Windows about the peripheric but the tablet continue to remain in black screen and the support tool won't recognize it.... I can try with another pc but for lg the warranty can pass with root?

Hi,
I'm in the same boat. I bought the device rooted and it was working fine, then after a day it just shut off when I was in recovery. It wasn't even while I was doing anything to it. I had rebooted into recovery from an apparently stable ROM. The battery was at about 40%. Now there are no lights and almost no sign of life at all. Occasionally when trying to connect it I get the cursor change that indicates that a USB device has connected but the LG Mobile app won't recognize it. Is there any chance that I'm just not pressing the buttons correctly? The instructions I've read say to make sure that the device is off, but I don't know how to tell conclusively that it's off. Has anyone had any similar experience, or is there something else I can try?
Thanks

Just follow the instructions above. If it has no charge, you may plug it in the wall for 15 minutes before starting.

I've done it many times but there's an element of uncertainty because I can't tell whether it's on or off. My Sony would go through some cycles of blinking lights. I'm probably overlooking something obvious. How do you tell whether it's off, or at least make a good guess?
Thanks

Hi all,
I've got exactly the same problem, maybe even worse ....
Been reading all about unbricking, updating, recovering etc ... Downloaded about all software I could lay hands on...none working. The B2CAppSetup, which is supposed to install the Mobile Tools doesn't even recognise my Internet Connection , go figure... Or is that suposed to be a fixed-line connection instead of WIFI? I've got some 'off-line-fixed-tools' that starts OK, but as soon as I point it to the *.kdz file and apropriate *.dll's, it just stops with an extract-error. The flashtool I found doesn't find any device on any port,etc etc etc ...
My G-Pad is only running in a kind of bootloop (LG-logo 2x, the death-droid, and again from the beginning) The 'recovery-mode' isn't doing anything and the only thing that surely works is 'download-mode'. But then again, Win XP sees several LGE-USB-devices which are NOT recognised by the LG-software.
Any one ?

If you are in download mode, then you are halfway there. As to the drivers, try uninstalling them and reinstalling. Then enter the LG Mobile Suite fresh and try from there.

If you hold the power button for a few seconds, you will see it go off, even if it is showing a black screen. The difference will be visible.

NVM. Misread. Anyhow, I found it doubtful that the LG Mobile Suite has issues with WiFi specifically, since the software has no way of knowing how it is receiving data via the internet. It may be an XP issue.

I had a similar issue with Sony's Emma update tool. On one of my computers (a Fujitsu Lifebook) it consistently failed saying that I had no internet connection. Another computer was fine.
My bricked LG-V500 must have been some hardware issue. I wondered if I had done something because I was flashing various ROMs, but I didn't do anything careless and it died when I inserted an SD card, not while I was performing any updates. I had just bought it on eBay and I really didn't want to make the seller deal with it (even though he had rooted and tinkered with it) when there was a decent chance that I had done it anyway. He sent me his newegg invoice, I returned it to them, and they just sent out the replacement.

Hi, I have an LG G Pad v500 with the same problem. I was trying to unlock my bootloader. Then I replaced my aboot to this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2698267, following this guide: http://www.grupoandroid.com/topic/1....t-todo-en-uno/.
I have an LG L70 D325 and it worked to me, so I tried to do the same with my LG G Pad.
Now my LG G Pad doesn't turn on. My screen is black and I can't access "Download Mode" nor "Recovery Mode" and nothing else. It's seems like my device is dead.
Can someone help me?
Is there something that I can do to fix my device?
I appreciate all kind of help!!!

I know this is old 3 year old reply. But i'm fighting with same issue on my T-Mobile LG PAD V521. Did you get this fixed or could tell me how? I don't know when tablet is on or off and can't tell.
I understand it has to be off for download mode but problem is it might take long time for battery to be "off".
Thank you

Completely power of the device by pressing the power button for 40 seconds. Then press volume up for ten seconds and while pressing connect to the computer. If the device is detected by the computer then try the first method of mega unbrick guide. Best of luck.

It seeems something wrong occurred (or interrupted ) during upgrade
I think the best youn can do is to repeat the process by means of usisg a full android image od android 10 on a sdboot card and reboot your unit by means of disconnecting it from battery or fuse

it is possible but the problem that the screen does not turn on, how can I do it? I should connect it to an external shield via hdmi but the model does not have such a connector
