Flash stock rim without computer? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Is there any way to flash stock rom without the use if Odin? Computer won't recognize phone and I have to send iT back for warranty after trying everything I can think of.

Can you get to d/l mode or recovery mode?

It's not clear what state your phone is in but if you can boot and have root mobile odin should work.

You can try to flash the below official ICS Stock roms via CWM, then try to reconnect with PC to flash via ODIN for complete stock.

Note: These roms are deodexed, so it is not unmodified stock.

Yes I can get to d/l mode and recovery

Do you have the necessary drivers installed on the pc? Try installing Kies on the pc. It will install the proper drivers for you.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium

Yes i have installed keis i even downloaded the drivers straight from the Samsung website too. Everytime i connect my phone to the computer(any computer) it says usb not recognized/malfunction. I have read many threads about how to fix this but none have worked for me. Im thinking about returning this phone because its still under warranty but its rooted.

Works fine but i connect my phone to my comp for backing up files and flashing you know that kinda stuff. I wonder what could if caused it. I remember it started when I was using fb app and it suddenly just shut off and wouldnt come on. When I tried to charge it because it seem like it was dead it would keep vibrating over and over again just like boot looping. Even now if phone is off and I connect the charger it won't show the battery meter but automatically turn it self on. So I think I'll have to send it to att warranty.

Hmm...pick a free one. can't hurt. BTW it doesn't have anything to do with your virus checker does it?

Disable your virus protection. You sure you have your phone in download mode? Can your phone reach download mode?

Faulty USB port?

I recently bought an extended battery for my skyrocket. I used it for a few days and one night while on the charger it apparently didn't charge. It was only at 70%. Then I noticed it would drop charge while plugged in and using it. The charge icon would stay on but it would consistently drop in percentage. So I switched back to the factory battery thinking that was the problem. Nope. The phone will charge as long as I'm not using it. I also can't get my phone to connect to the computer. Tried 3 different computers and 2 different cables (1 being the factory cable).
Another issue is that I have a custom ROM installed and if I'm going to turn this in for warranty how do I get it back to stock if I can't do it through Odin?
Thanks for the help.

I would suggest cleaning the contacts on the battery and phone and try a can of air duster to blow out the usb ports u are trying to use including the phones usb. If all else fails read the stickies in the development section to go back to stock.
P.S. im not sure if u can go back to stock without ODIN. But just read the stickies cuz i could be wrong

I'm not sure if its possible but on my i777 I was able to use the mobile Odin app to flash the stock firmware. Possibly something a dev could come up in cwm since failing USB ports are becoming more and more common. A cwm flashable rom maybe and a separate stock kernal to flash after.

USB debugging & download mode not working

I have an infuse on uclb3 and I decided to flash aokp. I downloaded the rooted heimdall package and my phone wont show up in download mode.
So I decided to root on PC but USB debugging wont show up at all. Any ideas?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
So you are in ulcb3 stock without root or cwm right?
You made sure your phone was entering download mode when trying to use heimdall?
Edit: in settings > applications> development there should be an option to toggle usb debugging on or off
Sent from my sweet and buttery Infuse
I know both of those but the adb icon in the top doesn't show up and download mode doesn't show up in Odin or heimdall
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
Sorry I'm not quite understanding you :/
An adb icon where exactly?
For odin or heimdall to detect your phone you must first place it in download mode by:
-Remove battery and put it back.
-While holding vol up and down, connect your device to the Pc
If it still does not recognize your device then it could be the drivers
Sent from my sweet and buttery Infuse
I got drivers installed and I can connect and transfer files just debug/download modes don't work or something

Okay, so you say you are trying to root your device.. using superoneclick?
You made sure you have usb debugging on? Does the program return any error?
Please I need you to be as detailed as possible to be able to tell what is happening and to be able to give you better assistance.
Edit: agreed, if it is on it should appear right next to the "usb connected" when your phone is connected to a Pc. You double checked it is switched On in settings?
Sent from my sweet and buttery Infuse
I'm not using super one click just adb for temp root usb connected woeks
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app
May I ask why you want temp root instead of fully rooting it?
To obtain temp root through adb is a bit complicated and it requires using a series of commands to push our phones exploit and run it from within.

Strange.. Well that leaves us with odin or heimdall..
If after entering download mode neither of them still recognize it, then the problem could be the usb cable or the usb port

Broken or not?

So here's the deal. My phone is stuck at 2.3.6 no matter what I try. I tried Kies update it wont recognize my device. I tried Odin to get CWM the same thing. I have tried numerous computers and none will recognize my device yet all of which I can charge my phone off of. When I press volume up and down all I get is an option to install update from zip, wipe cache, and format phone. Why can I not root this phone? My build number shows GINGERBREAD.UCLA3. Please help.

I know this is rather simple, but in your actual phone settings, did you set up USB connect as charge only? This is what it is sounding like to me that you have done.
Go into phone settings, and then USB Utilities, then connect storage to PC. Low and behold your computer should quickly go nuts and say HEY we've got something here to play with. You might want to try to do this with the Phone unplugged from the computer to start with, then once the phone tells you to plug it into the computer do it then.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
Uninstall USB drivers and than plug in the blaze and let your PC recognize it or go to the T-Mobile site and DL the drivers. I've had that happen when I plugged in other phones, most recently when I got my s4. It wouldn't let me open the folders for the blaze. It would flash on than off. Just don't plug the other phone in again after you get the drivers. If it still don't work try regedit and see if its leaving behind traces after the uninstall of the drivers.:good:

[Q] G2x Bricked

I have read lots of post, but could not find any post related to my issue.
After flashing different ROMs and Kernels my G2x wont boot into any ROM.
I have tried "volume up and down", it wont recognize USB.
Only way I know phone is working is that it turns on and boots only into clockworkmode recovery.
Please let me know if you know any fixes for this issue.
It kinda sounds like u may of flashed the kernel. I flashed a ics kernel by mistake on a cm7 rom and it did what you described. I used a process called nvflash.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
How did you do NV flash I am not able to connect to pc? Is it possible to run the zip from clockworkmod?
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk 2
Hey man, could you give us a little more information so we could try to figure out what is causing the issue? First off, did you originally install CWM with NvFlash?
Secondly, what was the latest setup (rom, kernel, gapps, tweak/mods, etc) that you flashed and in what order? Did you accidentally format or delete something you shouldn't have? Do you have the proper drivers installed for the phone to be recognized by your PC? Since you're able to get into CWM, try doing a full wipe and reflashing rom, kernel and gapps. Make sure sure to do a full data factory/reset, wipe both caches, format /system under mounts and storage, and try fixing permissions after flashing.
I believe I had Richie MIUI rom first with Mazout360 gb kernel then then I switched to different kernel. Phone wasn't doing well with any of those kernels so I went into recovery, wiped and flashed different rom. After which my phone didn't boot and was going straight into recovery. I wiped mount data/all of them; mount and unmount /all; used volk nulifier ; used scrub. I did all of that because I was not able to use USB / power volume up and down don't work neither. I don't know what else to do.
