[Q] Samgung Galaxy S2 - Non official ICS Fail attemp installation! - General Questions and Answers

Hi,
This morning I tried to install the ICS on my Samsung Galaxy S2, model GT-I9100G bought in Germany SIM lock free, but the phone is not working any longer. I follow the instructions published on cnet.co.uk. I cannot type links here since I am new, but if you type in Google the following:
How to install ice cream sandwich on samsung galaxy s2, you will find them in the first link.
I used Odin and the "SetupConnection.." got stuck in the same status for 10 min. Therefore, I decided based on some information on the web to pull the usb cable, pull the battery off and try one more time.
I tried to put the phone into download mode one more time, but it was not possible. The phone was just showing something like the following:
Phone icon ... Warning sign (the yellow triangle with the ! inside) ... Computer
Anyhow, I try to install once again the ICS with Odin, but this is what I got:
<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..

<ID:0/005> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/005>
<ID:0/005> Complete(Write) operation failed.

Suggestions or is the phone brick? Thank you

Hi,
An update of the issue with my phone.
I found the [GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked GSII on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
I follow step 5 for "NAND rw coruption", I follow step 5 because I was not able to get to Download Mode. I used Odin to flash the kernel proposed by Phistachio, I9100XXKI3. It seems that it works.
<ID:0/007> Odin v.3 engine (ID:7)..

After this, it shows a the following: Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100G with the yellow warning warning. After this procedure I was able to get into Download Mode. So I proceeded with the thread instructions from steps 1 to 4, using the Recovery Package/ROM proposed Phistachio, I9100XXKI3. However, this time the process did not work.

What could be the next step?
Thank you,

there are a different between GT-I9100G and GT-I9100
so be sure bro ..

yeh maybe rom not for your model i9100g

There isn't any ics ROM for the i9100G so you flashed a i9100 which bricked your phone.you should read in the gs2 section, there's a thread what to do know, just search for it

You can't flash roms from the i9100 because of different chipsets.

Hi everybody.
Thank you for Jahai advice on this thread. I looked deeper into the GS2 forum and I found what he has mentioned and I SOLVED the PROBLEM. My phone is fully operative once again.
Summary:
1.- I Bricked the GT-I9100G since I used a ICS not suitable for my phone. I got the same picture as the website below:
Look in Google under : Repair your bricked Samsung Galaxy S2...
Therefore I was not able to Go in Download Mode.
2.- I used the step 5 from, "NAND rw coruption", proposed by Phistachio, under the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1457458
I used the kernel he offered I9100XXKI3. With this procedure, I was able to y get the Download mode again after taking the battery off, and put it back and immediately Volume Down, Home and Power. Only step 5 nothing else.
3.- Then I followed the procedure defined by ToMmY_hun under the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448765&highlight=9100g
I have used the pit file as well. I tried without it, and I was not able to flash the firmware successfully. For more information about this step look at the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568756&highlight=9100g
By catanzaro27 at 28th March 2012, 10:54 AM.
4.- The phone is working again.
Hope this help.

FIX FOUND!
I had the SAME PROBLEM ! i also tried ics rom ,btw the pit file was for china model got it fixed by getting correct pit file, i can give the lnk for pit file
,and that warning sign - pc was fixed EASILy by flashing kernel through odin without going to download mode ! its fixed just flash a kernel and its fixed

I9100G
hi
get an I9100g PID
check repartition
choose your PDA .tar file
flash your phone
you need a good PID for i9100g
The i9100G is NOT the same GSII as the i9100. It has a different processor and CPU (TI-OMAP). Therefore, most of the ROMs won't be compatible.

Upgraded to a Verizon S3 today, store upgraded it to 4.1.2, cannot root

Hi all,
Today I upgraded from a Thunderbolt to an S3, and before I even left the store the guy was upgrading to the latest version of 4.1.2 which came out a few days ago.
I've been following this tutorial, which is basically the same as all the other tutorials - install Samsung USB drivers on Windows machine, download CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar and use ODIN 3.04 or 1.85 to flash while in download mode.
I've done all that, and when I use either version of ODIN, I get the following:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/004> Initialzation..
<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/004>
<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I don't even get a green light in 3.04 - just a blue light. In 1.85 I get a yellow light.
I see this on my phone:
SECURE CHECK FAIL: recovery
I see this on the phone's screen twice, as I tried to flash it with ODIN 3.04 and 1.85.
Any ideas? Could this be a direct result of the most recent software update?
Thanks in advance for any light shed on this issue.

As you do not have I9300 any firmware root from this I9300 forum may brick your not a I9300 phone ,read the sticky top of the page please .

Jee speaks the truth. Even though you have a galaxy S3 the original s3 in Europe is not the same as here in the states (i535). I went into the development section of xda in the i535 Verizon section and d/l the tar file foe my phone. Worked great with Odin

[Completed] Cannot Restore my phone (Galaxy S7 G930V)

Hello, I believed I've exhausted my efforts in searching for an answer online. It seems no one else is in the exact same scenario as myself, to where I cannot find an answer.
So, a little bit ago, I rooted my phone using the guide posted at the following link: Here
My phone became very laggy and battery life was horrible, so I decided to unroot my phone. I followed a guide on the following link : Here
Well, it just so happened that Odin had failed to flash back to the stock firmware. I've tried numerous versions of the firmware and I have had no luck. I cannot use my phone now. I can access the downloading screen, and that is about it. My phone is a Verizon Galaxy S7
SM-G930V
Unsure of the current firmware. Whatever that first link I posted gives.
This is the same error I get thrown from Odin:
Code:

If there is any other information you feel might help solve this, I'll give up all that I can. Thank you in advance.

I downloaded this file
USC-G930R4TYU4BQK3-20171221083318.zip
Wish I knew where I got it from but now my phone is actually turning on!
There was a loading screen iv never seen before thought it show
Installing applications with a black bar then smart switch popped up and the bar was filled instantly with yellow lol iv just never seen this screen before from
past uses of any Samsung device.
Good stuff, just be cautious with that model S7, it's a snapdragon meaning much more difficult to unbrick if you brick it as the bootloader is locked

Its really buggy the OS itself. Its slower the normal idk if its just because of how fresh it is like the flash maybe just give it time?

Did you factory reset after the flash (or use CSC to force the reset)?
I'd reset it, it should be pretty smooth after maybe 5 mins of first boot

Great!!!
Thank you for the Odin Files
You are such a life saver! with the most recent bootloader and a failed attempt at a root, i have been stuck with a soft bricked phone for ages. For the life of me I couldnt get G950U1UES5CRF5 firmware to flash. Every version of Odin I used failed. However this version worked perfectly and now im not using the terrible samsung galaxy express 3. Thank you so much man for your version of Odin!
Thank you for the Odin file.

Can this rom get twrp and be rooted?
Non-AT&T Simcard
Can this rom be used with a non-at&t sim? or do I have to unlock it again after flashing?
If your phone was legitimately unlocked by att it will stay unlocked under all circumstances. If you used a 3rd party, it could be trial and error. Best to contact them.
Also i uploaded a newer version in this thread.
