so i wanted to upgrade my phone and wanted to use one of the tayutama roms. I backed up using tibu and flash back to stock. well when i got into download mode, the progress meter didnt move and my phone seemed to power off. I unplugged my phone went back into download mode again...same thing...I tried a couple of the one click mode roms and it did the same thing...any ideas? Thanks. I was on cog 8.1.3 before I did this. Ive flashed several roms before and had no issue before this...thx.
disregard...i rebooted my pc and it worked...very weird.

About 2 months ago, I got a Samsung Infuse 4g. I was thrilled. At first I was satisfied with the stock rom and its limited functions, but then I got really interested into custom roms. I rooted my phone, installed Clockworkmod recovery and flashed Cyanogen 7 rom. During the reboot process, I pulled out the battery just like the tutorial said and thats where everything went wrong. My infuse got stuck into the bootloop, but I was able to get into recovery. I flashed Cyanogen 7 again and it work. However, my home, back, search and menu buttons all stopped working. I figured it was the customed Rom, so I flashed MiUi. The buttons still did not work. What is worst of all, is that My computer refuses to recognize my phone(yes I installed Samsung Kies)(download mode is unrecognizable too). It only recognize it as a storage device. As a result, Odin does not pick it up. neither does heimdall. I need some serious help. I have tried everything. I am currently running Miui and apparently, now I can't get into recovery mode. Guys, please help.
if you cant access the phone from usb and you cant get into recovery then you re screwed.I had a similar problem and had to return the phone to vodafone to fix it
After screwing around with it, I factory resetted and Tried download mode on a different computer and luckily it worked. Odin was able to pick up my infuse and I used Ultimate Debrick. Thanx a million to those within the Community who are consistently developing and coming up with programs such as Odin. Big thanx to everyelse who shares their thoughts and advice.

Use this to put cwm and then flash the rom you like.
If phone still boots into recovery you may have a stuck vol- button.

i cant get into recoveery now im stuck in it relaoding as i tried to flash the recovery again and its stuck
try and flash again, if it doesn't stick, then try again. If it gives you an error report the error. Try what mansa_noob posted, it usually works for everyone, it fixes everything (partition and issues) and then flashes the recovery for you.
(Well, this is embarrassing.)
(yes, I read older threads before making this.)
I recently rooted my admire; I decided to install rom manager and Busybox, however, when rom manager was installed (I figured that I could get flashed roms) When I begun to install CWM recovery 7.0.3 from rom manager, i chose "other". It installed, and it told me to reboot. So, i turned it off and was going to turn it back on. Nothing. Recovery mode, Download mode. Nothing. Phone stays off, never turns back on, as if it was dead. I'm not sure if it did enter DL mode, because I heard that it would still be in download mode, even if the screen was off. My battery still charges(?) when i plug it in. (The battery heats up, no charging screen, or boot.) Any fix?
To recap; Samsung admire. Rooted recently. Root manager installed. Cwm recovery 7.0.3 downloaded. Installed. Tried to reboot. Hard brick.

dude i did the same exact thing except when i tried to upload a rom from my sd card,cwm rebooted my admire and it never cut bak on, im been up all nigh
t tryin to unbrick still havent got it to unbrick,but it still charge so dats a plus.
I unlocked bootloader and rooted a couple of days ago. Phone was running smooth. I downloaded and installed cwm. Today I downloaded Bean's Build 14 and tried to install through cwm. When it rebooted I got stuck on the Samsung screen. I tried to flash back to original settings with Odin but now my phone won't turn on at all. I am charging but no battery indicator or led is on to indicate charging. Please help.
Try leaving it plugged in for an hour, and then trying. Also might want to try leaving the battery out for 30 min and trying again. If you are unable to get any response from the phone, then it is likely hard bricked. The only thing that can save it at that point is sending it in for JTAG repair. That service starts at $60.

How did you unlock the bootloader? using EZ-Unlock? Also did you make a nandroid before you flashed? If so try booting into CWM using VOL+ Home and Power and restore your nandroid and see if that works.
Hi everyone!! New here, but not new to Forums in general. I searched around and couldn't find my exact issue, so I figured I’d start a new thread. This is gonna be kinda long, but I wanna give as many details as I can to keep things accurate.
My wife and I both have the Galaxy S2 T989 (T-Mobile). Both purchased like new off eBay. When I got hers a couple months ago, as soon as I got it I factory reset and wiped the caches, upgraded to JB via Kies, and then turned right around and rooted it via Odin using the instructions found on galaxys2root.com. Everything went flawless, took me less than a half an hour total for everything. I got mine a couple months later and did the exact same process as soon as I got it in the mail. However after rooting on Odin and getting the green pass just like hers, it got stuck in a boot loop when it rebooted. It would go as far as the "galaxy S2" splash screen, and sometimes past that to where the Android takes off, then reboot, or freeze. It then became unresponsive to any button pushes and I had to pull the battery to get it to shut off (The battery is a new OEM Samsung battery incidentally). I ultimately had to unroot, re-install ICS and re-upgrade back to JB via Kies again to get out of the loop. I did this whole process 3 times to make sure it wasn’t something I did. So I’m still running unrooted with JB on it now.
The only thing I noted that was kinda odd was that when I open Rom Manager in my current non rooted state, it shows that I already have CWM and TWRP installed on it. Even though when I go to recovery mode it's the standard OEM Samsung menu. I never installed TWRP, and CWM was only on it for a bit when I was in the boot loop. Could this be my issue? Are they both still somewhere on my phone interfering with each other and I can only see them via ROM manager?
Sorry for such a long first post, and thanks in advance!

hi,
can 'be that your device has some residual old. Do as you have advised. install a stock rom and firmware, so it becomes a new cell phone. After odin starts TWRP (much better) and root.
I would flash a complete bone stock Rom using Odin and start over. Also rom manager was highly discouraged on the AT&T version of the s2 so I don't know what the stance is on T-Mobile's version

Thanks for the advice! Should i flash it back to ICS then try to root again via Odin before i upgrade back to JB? I'm guessing there's something that isn't getting wiped. Since i can run CWM and Root with Odin without a hitch. it's the initial reboot after all that is done that I go into the boot loop.

Sorry for my ignorrance, what exactly is TWRP, and is it now on there because i used Odin and it installed it automaticly? And do i want to use this vice CWM?
One more question...before i try all this, can i backup everything on Kies just like i would be able to with CWM and reinstall if my root fails again? I've only used Kies for firmware upgrade, never to reinstall a backed up copy of my phone.
Thanks!

Hi
TWRP and the 'one touch recovery, better than CWM.
The backup kies can not recover from CWM
steps:
install odin, after recovery, nandroid backup, ROM, and root.
hi
Flash the stock firmware using odin!!..it will work!

freezes then booted
Hello I have this problem with my galaxy s2 i9100. After reboot the phone wasn't booting something like "boot loop" so I re flashed the firmware and now the phone boots up but after the boot it freezes immediately. So I decided to install clock work mod recovery and install cyanogen mode 11 with cyanogen mode the phone boots up and are able to be used again until the screen goes to sleep mode or the power button is pressed then the screen goes black and doesn't turn on after long pressing the power button it reboots. So I don't know what else to do I have tried kernels, operating systems re flashing reseting and nothing helps. No need to tel me to do resettings. Also my galaxy s2 i9100 chip has insane chip bug but I don't know if it has to do something with my problem.
