Hi.
Here is my story.
I got Galaxy S 4G with Tmobile
The battery life sucked, so i read that GB will solve it
and i flashed my phone using this :
http://droidangel.blogspot.com/2011/06/how-to-odin-flash-updateupgrade-samsung.html
That is KF1.
Then i got new bugs:
1. No call logs (outgoing), no call times.
2. Blue tooth from status bar getting force close
So i read that KF2 will solve this.
I tried to flash to it, but odin said "fail" immediately, and after that my phone says :
Firmware Upgrade Fail, try using recovery mode.
The recovery mode is not working for me!
I tried the volume up + down + power it doesnt go.
People, please help ... this is expensive phone and i had it only for 4 days.

It just happened to me yesterday
There is a logo and this messege "Firmware Upgrade Fail, try using recovery mode.. " is below the logo right?
I'm so nervous when this happen ..so i decide to flash via Odin suddenly (the messege still on) and it's work. just try
Exactly... but no call times ... yet
Try using adb....
For recovery mode if you have this problem again goto your command prompt and put in these commands:
cd/
cd androidsdk
cd tools
adb reboot recovery
and for download mode:
cd/
cd androidsdk
cd tools
adb reboot download
same thing happened to me and i ran the odin again and it fixed the problem
hey guys, did you get all of your problems fixed?
there are other ways to get into download mode, so if the main method doesnt work, try following one from the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1069032
Not really that helpful atm, but instead of flashing KF1, why not just flash KG4? I think the overall response for KG4 seems better.
The link jager555 posted is really good for it. I'm sure you'll get into download mode using one of those methods. Try it again and again, making sure you did it right. Sometimes, you just miss that one button for half a second.

I also followed the instructions to flash to 2.3.3 and it took a while for it to get to download mode, but since the update, i can no longer bring up download mode or go into recovery mode. i tried the thread about all the different ways to go into download mode and not one of the 4 methods worked. Odin sees my phone just fine so would i too be able to just flash a different rom on it without going into download mode just by clicking start? I meant to do a different rom, one that had root already in it and did just a regular firmware update instead. if anyone can help please do, this is rather frustrating being stuck where i'm at now.

I am trying to get into download mode to be able to return to stock using this
Return to stock, fix soft brick :: 11/13: Rogers TAR!
my question: Could I flash while am on "Phone---!---Pc" screen?how can I get rid of "Phone---!---Pc" screen? or should I get USB jig to force into download mode? is it the best solution to restore to stock?

Even if your phone is shown the "Phone---!---PC" screen .. ODIN should still recognize it being attached to your computer .. My first SGS2 Skyrocket did this in which I was able to reflash back to stock using ODIN v1.85 .. however, my first SGS2 took a real crapper for some reason .. that even the USB JIG was unable to get the phone into Download Mode.
I now have a replacement in which I'm being REAL careful with .. LOL

Do you have usb Jig. If no than you can make ur own. Let me find you solution to ur problem. And if you have any other device that uses micro usb than try plugging the usb cable to ur phone and see if thats gets u in dload mode.

Morning y'all... having a similar problem... I was rooted but for some reason when in Recovery I'd only get Android Recovery??? I got CWM installed using ODIN (This is the tread I used... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1340526) . Then I went and tried to install miuiscotland_I9100-2.1.13... said install was complete... went to reboot from CWN... and nothing.
I tried pulling battery, going into recovery, download mode, the jig... and nothing... doesn't even look like it's charging... no spark at all?
So I have no phone as it stands right now.
Any comments, suggestions, hints, tips, tricks?
Thx.

You are hard bricked. You flashed a i9100 rom over a i727 device.
Only advice I can give is drop it in the toilet if you have insurance on the phone and get a replacement, or call your carrier's warranty department and tell them your phone just stopped working (not particularly ethical and you could get caught if they figure out it was rooted, but worth a shot...).
Oh, and the other advice is NEVER flash roms meant for devices other than the Skyrocket. Roms meant for the original S2 will brick your phone.

No need for a jig here (though it is good to have one anyways). If you get the "firmware upgrade failed" screen, just plug the phone in and if Odin sees your phone you can flash the stock tar. The "failed" screen won't look like it's doing anything but after Odin finishes you will be back to stock and life will be good again.
Hi all,
My Samsung Galaxy phone is stuck on the Samsung boot up logo. I shut off the phone and it starts up again to the Samsung logo again. I am rooted but still had the stock rom and kernel.
I went to selections and wiped my cache and tried to format it like a new phone. The same thing still happens. I am not sure what else to do. Anyone know how to fix this?
Keep the instructions simple please, if you do know. (I'm a desperate noob)
Thanks for any help.
IF you ever did nandroid than just restore that otherwise.........
Hey first follow this steps to flash any rom. If you flash the rom properly than you can use any stock rom from dev section and use that.
OR
follow this step to go back to stock and it will unroot you.

Same Problem
My problem is that my Rogers SGSII LTE I727R, is stuck on the logo screen, which is flashing the boot screen. When I connect the USB (even after install of Kies and Odin), my PC does not see the device. I am really not sure what to do. I think I set the wrong phone ID when I installed recovery (I think I was supposed to use the T-Mobil SGSII setting), but I selected something else. I then tried to backup the existing ROM, and am now in this unending loop. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
Follow these steps it will help you go back to stock. ANd reroot your phone.

Try a different USB port. Avoid rear ports and hubs.

Try another USB port or another computer. If you can get the logo you are in a boot loop, the most common form of a soft brick. If you can get into download mode you should be able to fix it.

Another thought is to try turning off firewall and antivirus when using Odin. I've never had my firewall or antivirus block Odin but I've heard it can happen...
Can you get into download mode? Hold the two volume buttons down, then plug the usb cable into your phone, then you should be in download mode.
I cannot get into download mode. I just keep getting the flashing boot screen, with the corresponding vibration.

What he said. Pull the battery and put it back in. Hold volume up/down and plug in USB. Continue holding volume buttons until you see download mode. Careful not to press the power button during this process.

Don't panic. If you're in a boot loop it's fixable. It's when you get nothing that you need to worry about a hard brick.
Try the button combo mentioned above to get into download mode. If that doesn't work, pull the battery again and try using just the volume down button button--I've heard people say this worked for them when they had a hard time.
If this doesn't get you into download mode, I guarantee you that a jig will work. You can buy one online or make one yourself for about 75 cents and a cut-up data cable (I had a car charger that I didn't need--car charges the phone through USB port, so I cut that one up). Always good to have a jig, at any rate...

Well.. no. Not if it's not flashing right to begin with. Try rebooting the pc first and see if that helps. It should flash and reboot your phone, and then you can flash bootloaders.

Sorry for the delay, been busy. Try the instructions? Has nothing to do with recovery working. You need odin on your oc and kies ti install the drivers, if it wil go into download mode it can be flashed.
Agreed. Should still be a way to get into download mode, although you may have to use an alternate route. The most reliable method (without extra hardware) is to (once USB cable connected to PC):
Pull battery.
Reinsert battery.
Hold down both volume buttons and plug in the USB cable.
Voila!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If that fails, then may need a jig.
