repairable or bricked? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

So lastnight i was flashing my phone to cm9 from 10 because it was to buggy for me to use right now... I used the rom manager like i have before, i made a backup so i can have all my data when i go back to 10 in the future, but something went wrong during the flash and it aborted, I flashed it myself in recovery mode after that and now it just hangs on the boot menu, I have the same files I used before and they were working for a good week or so. I was still able to boot in recovery and download, so i flashed the stock firmware, both the new ics and gingerbread .tars with odin and still it hangs on the boot menu.. I try to do anything in recovery mode like delete data / format, and It also hangs with a little android dude and a blue circle spinning. Is this repairable still? If not can i reset my flash count so i can take it in to att?

Try reflashing your kernel

Also try re downloading the rom. Bad downloads are always the cause of my boot loops. Do u know how to check md5? If not, Google it.
Edit...
Also, to answer your specific question: I think it's prolly repairable by you, since it at least boots. Did u try pulling battery?
Search for how to reset flash counter. That info is def available. Although I don't think you'll need it if you perform a few basic troubleshoots.

Im not sure what triggered it, but after flashing my phone 3 times lastnight i gave up, it didnt fix anything .. then today I reflashed the stock kernal and then I flashed the stock firmware once again and after that, it let me finally delete data/cache and format without hanging. booted right up after I did that.

I didn't see if he was using RM to flash. I never do that. I only use RM to fix permissions, nothing more. Is there a better way to fix permissions? If so, I'll drop RM in a heartbeat.

I thought I read somewhere in the Team Chopsticks instructions not to use ROM Manager or you risk bricking your phone?

As far as i'm aware, this is what most use. I'm pretty sure you can do it via recovery too, but i'm not sure if there's a difference.

Clean and shiny new phone here... .bin files needed still?

Okay, I had soft-bricked my phone and recovery was not working, so, after a few minutes of tech time with T-Mo they shipped me a new phone.
Even though i called them to cancel the shipment when I managed to get Odin working and get the phone back up...
Long story short - the brand spankin' new device just landed on my desk updating stock apps as I type.
KB5 stock.
Is there anyway to back this up as is before I add CWM? Can I somehow dump it with Odin? I still have not played with Odin enough to know this....
I'd like to preserve the stock rom if it all possible, for 'just in case'

That I can do, I meant something similar to a nand, the whole system backed up.
Thought it might come in handy... no worries though, grabbing the Kd1 update then I'll root/cwm and nand that... just figured since I had a virgin phone I'd back it up if I could.

Fek, sorry guys, I just got done grabbing the Kies KD1 - literally right before I rad this it finished installing.
I haven't flashed anything, this is still just the stock phone, with the T-Mo/Samsung ROM, upgaded, but not with any custom roms, on it if that will do it, I'll hold off rooting, etc until I can get the sbl and boot pulled if these will still work?

New Download screen

I flashed back to stock this morning to test something and noticed there was a 19Mb update. After updating I rebooted the phone and checked a few more times to make sure there were no more updates. When I went into 'Download' to flash a new rom this is the screen I was presented with. After I chose to enter to Download mode that was the 2nd screen I had. Just thought it was funny and would share.

Could someone please upload this bootloader zip ? I would like to try them with this GB leak to see if it gets rid of rainbows.

Removing the download for the bootloaders so people won't try flashing them and brick devices left and right. They were only intended for serious devs who know what they are doing. Sorry.
Could you also upload the whole update package? Thanks for the bootloaders.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Considering that we haven't ever been able to flash dumped BLs from the Rogers ROM, having the update package to look at would be highly beneficial to figure out how to flash the bootloaders.
This is a similar download mode screen to the SGSII - keeping count of how many custom ROMS you run/flash. Keeping in mind if you phone needs to go some where to be serviced there maybe a document of how they can check this counter. A USB JIG cleared this on the SGSII & my jig works fine on my Infuse so I can imagine it will still clear it.

If that's the reason, then that's a REALLY smart way to track if you flash a custom "OS", as Samsung would say.
If it's as simple as using a USB JIG to clear it, then we should be in the clear.
Well i guess this finally gives me a reason to pick one up......

It may be a bit before i could actually get a dump of the update package (considering i have n idea how to even begin to do that). i just had hernia surgery this morning and not really feeling up to doing much in the way of dev work lol. i will let everyone know when i am feeling better and maybe someone could walk me through it on IRC.

Boot loaders flashed fine, now have the new download screen with warning. Still had rainbows and cannot access recovery when used with leaked GB. Otherwise no issues.

I was curious about this, thanks for the info!
Also in case anyone wants to know, after flashing the leaked GB with this BL the download screen still reports official Samsung Binary as the current.
This is just a short term observation: when I flashed the leaked GB with the old BL I got hard reboots when apps accessed GPS (speed test, maps, co pilot) 1 out of 10 times. With these BL's I am at 18 hours using all of those apps without any reboots. Though it could have just been reflashing that fixed it. I did not use TB or anything to restore app data usher time, both times I went back to stock first.

Question about supercharged ROM...?

Whats the point of having to flash the deodoxed ROM before the Supercharged ROM?
You only flash the stock rom if you don't have root if you do you can flash over to super charged with wipe data etc etc
I just do it just for a precaution and stability by flashing stock then supercharged

Because there are things that are needed from the stock deodexed ROM version, his supercharged does NOT wipe /system when you flash it, think of it like an "enhancement" ROM, on top the stock deodexed ROM. If you flash it over a straight stock ROM, you might have some oddities.

Thanks for the prompt response. I kinda thought that was the reason, however, a well framed question goes a long way...BTW, I'ma iphone convert, so its a learning curve with the lingo and such.
Did the entire process, successfully. Question, all my Motorola/Google apps force close. I've looked around and hadn't found a definitive answer. Is there a fix, or should I reflash?

Start from a clean fresh install.... Go grab the fxz and rsd light, then flash the fxz to the phone, re-root and get the bootstrap on it, then flash the rooted deodexed rom, then flash the v4 on top of that, I am pretty sure you are having some odd issue, and it appears that the system wipe from bootstrap did not fully wipe your system. You are using the bootstrap and not safestrap right? If you are using safestrap, stop, and only use bootstrap. Like I said, start with the fxz and go from there.
Thanks, when I get a chance to reflash I'll post. I do remember when I would clean the cache it would give me an error about a path or something (but then it would say it was cleared) , that might be the issue. Oh, I'm only using the bootstrap.

It would give me that error as well, but it still went to wipe it correctly. Just try reflashing everything as Jim said, and don't forget to flash the Stock Deodexed ROM before you flash the SuperCharged ROM.
Flashed back to stock, then followed the steps. Still having the same problems. I'll stick to the deodexed rom for now...

[Q] Developers needed for ROM build feedback.

First thing I am sorry if I posted this information the wrong section but this is kinda Q&A
I need help Devs or anyone with a strong knowledge in building roms. Now I'm gonna be very clear I'm more then likely 75% noob when it comes to building roms but I am learning thru trial and error. And every First time dev has a learning curve.
What this thread for I built my first custom ROM and i need some feedback in regards to what the heck im doing wrong.I started using the android kitchen is xda INSTALL Cygwin was fine and all first time preps and tools I believe is all set.
v1
Now so far I have built a rom 3 different versions V1 install was fine all packages came up on got some FCs and freezing and root wouldnt allow access even though SU was present. but the phone was completely functional aside of that.
V2
This time I went in and made mods the android kitchen completely normal su, busy box, all the same however this time I made changes However i did make some BP mods(build prop) and almost every ROM in xda has such as speed tweaks response etc. This time I added a custom boot animation and audio.I also Added a few apks to data/app. This time after flash was done in got the custom boot logo and custom boot audio however I was stuck for 30 min at custom boot. So reset re flash cache fact reset system data cache format with dalvik still nogo.(in other words still a Nogo)
v3
Now this scenario android Kitchen had everything installed except for wipe ROm, Now this time i added the same apks a new custom boot animation/audio But this time i cut down on a few of the build Prop tweaks. and made a few change on the sounds folder and notification/alarms etc. Now i went back into cwm flash as normal- format system,data,cache wipe Fact Reset cache and dalvik again. install was completely fine. went in t reboot device I got the Boot animation/Sound took about 5 minutes then i got the soft keys now me thinking it was gonna go to the main screen it didnt it stayed at the boot animation for another 30min did a Battery reset. soon after comes a flicker onthe screen and then a paper weight phone... it wont boot light up i get nothin. now when i plug it in to get something thru PC I only get "qhsusb_dload" which i know means DEAD/ASTA LA BEASTA/Corpse. i know it requires Jtag to fix im cool with that.
what im trying to accomplish here is some good feedback to anyone who willing to help me learn from my mistakes or can atleast point me in a good directionand places to read etc.
I have channel logs of what mods i made to BP and i have actuall builds of this rom i tried to make. if there is anyone at willing to attempt to atleast have a look at the rom build NOT FLASH cuz i would hate for you to break your phone but atleast Look at what i change and see if there is something i shouldnt of done i would really appreciate it.
If you would like to look at the build and give me some constructive feedback please PM so far i have exhausted all my sources i would really like some feedback.
I WARN YOU DO NOT FLASH THESE ROM FILES DONT BREAK YOUR PHONE I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DO THIS
You guys can flame me all you want i just want to do more then just use your files i want to contribute
Thank you for all those who want to help

[UVMB1][STOCK][CWM/TWRP]Full Odexed and Deodexed Stock

Besides the modem stuff thanks to racing19969 here, it doesn't look like anything is really around for this - though given all the other fun options I'm not surprised Regardless, I figured I should actually do something for the Blaze as it's been a while so here I am!
[size=+1]I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS (GOOD OR BAD) AS A RESULT OF FLASHING OR ATTEMPTING TO FLASH WHAT IS POSTED HERE![/size]
I am normally a bit verbose on things, but I really didn't do much here. The below files were all pulled from either dumps from the phone or pulled from the UVMB1 tar I got from sammobile.com.
The odexed version I did NOTHING to (except fashion it into something CWM flashable), which means it is unrooted and it includes the stock kernel. The deodexed/zipaligned version includes SuperSU v1.34 (found here) as well as busybox (v1.20.2 thanks to imnuts). I also went through and removed 3 apks, 1 lib, and some smali bits in Settings.apk and framework.jar that were related to carrier iq. It's actually rendered dormant by T-Mobile, but better safe than sorry. Also - this one does not include a kernel as I don't want to force it on folks (even though it's likely a good idea!).
I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS (GOOD OR BAD) AS A RESULT OF FLASHING OR ATTEMPTING TO FLASH WHAT IS POSTED HERE!
Usual rules apply - you should be cautious whenever you flash. Make sure to wipe data/factory reset to avoid issues. Flash in recovery.
As the Blaze is now privy to a number of AOSP-flavored ROMs, remember that you will need to flash the stock UVMB1 kernel if you aren't already using it. Others might work but I haven't tested, so YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Installation instructions:
- Backup your current setup/data
- Download file and place on sdcard
- Boot into CWM/TWRP recovery
- Recommended to wipe data/factory reset in CWM/TWRP recovery
- Select and install the .zip you put on your sdcard
And without further ado - here are the downloads:

Enjoy!
Also - I did not get a chance to try this out on my wife's phone yet. I am fairly confident everything will work just fine, and recent reports seem to support such a confidence, but even so I feel I should put an "I haven't tested this" disclaimer in here
Will test this out today...

Is it just me or is the vibration broken?
So far so good, I've been on jb for such a long time that I forgot how much I like ics. Wifi calling is Nice too...only problem I've had so far is I can't connect to the camera, I'll try a few things to see of I can figure it out.

Interesting... does an error pop up or anything? If so could you get me a logcat?
Looks like I'll be trying to sneak the wife's phone away from her tonight lol
Well, I was going to get you a log and of course it worked this time. Maybe it just needed some time to settle. If it happens again, I will get a log for you. Flawless from what I've seen so far.

Nah - this is just stock, nothing more, nothing less. Well, a little less carrier iq, and a little more root/busybox. But that's it at this point
Unless I'm missing something this doesn't have anything for NFC anywhere in the settings to enable or disable it. Not that I use nfc, I just noticed that it's gone.

Would something like crossbreeder or nos somehow remove it (I believe I'm running one of them)? I'd hate to have to reflash...
EDIT: Going to reflash again anyway. The checkbox isn't there for me. But I was running crossbreeder and I highly recommend it with this stock! It is WAY more responsive!

You would think such things would be reported if that were the case, but you never know. It is an option (and functional) on other roms, yes? Sometimes the Settings options are dependent on certain conditions being met - so if it tried to poll the nfc adapter for example and got no response maybe it wouldn't show... I really dunno though, I haven't looked very thoroughly to be honest.

Here's what I have in settings>more (images attatched). One image is at the top of settings>more and there is the 'mobile networks' missing from that screenshot. The second image shows that. No NFC checkbox.
Keep in mind even if I run stock I make my own... adjustments... I will start over from the beginning and if I find out where I went wrong I will report so others will know.
I'm using the BLOATED UVMB1 DEODEXED ROOTED BUSYBOX-ED with the stock kernel linked below it and still no NFC option in settings>more. I have downloaded the files again and checked md5's and still nothing. Like I said, it's nothing major as I don't use it.
EDIT: I was going to try the odexed version to check it but got a status 7. something with the boot partition mmcblk0p8
