And now my Galaxy S2 i727 won't turn on or boot into download mode. I was told getting a jig may fix it but if my phone won't turn on would I be able to use a jig?
Is there any way to make my phone functional again or am I out of luck?
well that was stupid lol. sorry bud you might be able to jtag it but idk good luck
Yeah, you're hard-bricked. A jig would almost certainly be a waste of time and money. Send it to the jtag guy for $50 or buy a new one, maybe try to warranty it out through Sammy if you want to risk them finding out that you'd been flashing and broken the warranty.
Not to rub salt in the wound or anything, but had you paid close attention and read before flashing, you'd have noticed that you were about to flash an SGS2 kernel onto a SR, and riding full-speed on the train to Bricksville.

thats why the last part of my sig says what it says.
the 1st link in my sig has a link for brick repair, but first try to get it fixed under warranty, just say that it wont turn on anymore and act dumb about flashing...which is not to far from the truth
Smh.....another one bites the dust this is why I get so angry nobody takes time to learn about their $400+ device but then we are supposed to help them fix it..... my faith in the ability of our society to learn is dead I can't wait to see what happens when these generations get older

Not to be an advocate of noobs... i was kinda confused at first too. BUT never took rooting and flashing as a joke so I read and read... took me a week or so before rooting (already reading up on skyrocket and S2 prior to purchase though) and more than 6 months of reading before flashing Embryo 6.
Rooting is the new cool aid... wish some people will quit trying to be cool and really understand what they are doing. Most noobs just wants to brag that they have a custom rom as though it elevates their standing in life. Geeez.

Hi, everyone, I've recently HARD BRICKED my Samsung Galaxy MODEL: T959V with T-mobile.
First off, I got pattern locked on my phone, yea I know I'm an idiot, LOL. Next I totally forgot my gmail password so I could not log back into my phone.
So then I next decided to flash back to stock with odin 1.7 and T959UVJFD. tar file from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1047087.
As a result, my phone would boot to the loading screen with the dashed circle and a battery display in the background and thus would not finish booting all the way.
So I figured I would do more research and found that people would try flashing with the Eugene_2E_JK2_Froyo from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...833024&page=49 and after flash back to stock.
After I flashed with the Eugene rom this was when the phone completely died and would not turn on. I tried the take out the battery, holding down and up volume button and plugging into computer method but the computer would not detect it anymore.
Now I don't know what to do. I realized I was flashing with the Galaxy Vibrant kernels with Odin and now, it won't turn on anymore and can't boot into download mode. It is also not being detected my computer when I plug it in. I'ts a blank screen.
Please help.. Thanks, and appreciate it.

sooo i have my Samsung Running on the MIUI ROM and i decided to switch the ROM because The battery just wouldnt last very long, i try goin on CWM and it would just get stuck on the Samsung booot up logo, also tried going on with the both volume buttons method and still, so i thought, theres no way i can flash another ROM, so i though the only way to fix this is by using GTG unbrickable software, i did everything and when its about to load up it gets stuck on these yellow letters saying something like install default APK please wait? i ran the program a couple times and still, if theres a way to fix this pleaseeeee help i need my phone

It is possible. Especially during boot loader flash. Mid screw up during Odin or heimdall may potentially cause some issue. Read some of Adam outler's post and you will understand.

Just my 2¢
So just being bored, i decided to flash a t-mobile rom, via clockwork rom manager, now the skyrocket wont even power on. So thanks Rom Manager for the bricked phone, Bad Buisness....
First sorry to hear that man. Ive never trusted rom manager to flash, I always use clockwork mod. Have you tried pulling the battery and try to get into download mode?

Why would you blame ROM Manager for your mistake?
A. Anytime you flash anything (even if its the correct ROM flashed the correct way (CWM)) you always assume responsibility yourself.
B. You flashed a T-mobile ROM on your AT&T Skyrocket. If done right, it usually works, but it still adds extra risk.
C. You said you were "just messing around". Anyone that doesn't want a bricked phone should take flashing or modifying anything serious...not just messing around.
D. Most of the ROMS you are supposed to flash on the SkyRocket give detailed directions in the OP. Any I have sen all say to use CWM and give great instructions.
I don't see how any of this is ROM Managers bad business? Hopefully this will be a good tale of precaution for others before they brick their phone not paying attention. Sorry to hear about your phone, but take the blame for yourself...not ROM manager.

Thanks. I'm not trying to give the guy a hard time. He just bricked (atleast soft-bricked) his phone so I'm sure he really is pissed. But blaming an app for it when it isn't the apps fault starts alot of confusion. If something really is wrong with an app, we all need to know about it so it can be tested / fixed/ avoided / reported / etc...If the fault is with the phone's owner than the phone's owner needs to take responsibility for the problem and stop blaming the creators of useful apps (and ROMS) for the problems.

It bricked because ROM manager doesn't recognize the recovery on the skyrocket. It's something in the first line of the app.
Although, I might agree with you and blame ROM manager also if it let you flash a ROM while it couldn't detect a recovery. That's just straight up ****ty oversight on the developer.

Try Samsung first. Tell them it just derped one day when you tried to turn it on. If they believe you, it might take a week or two but you'll get another phone. Samsung will just fix it and give it to the next person that has a warranty replacement as a "referbished" unit. They won't lose money and you will get a new phone. That is if they believe you.
still a 200 dollar deductible..i could probably smoose out of it...but i would actually like to fix it my self..just for the experience.....oh and the Rom was called Ziggy and Mobstergunz..(minimal triumph.v1.02..state away from that ****

To have any hope of saving your phone you need to find away to put the stock rom and recovery back on it. Google that for your i9210. Any other help would be just guesses as I'm not familiar with your phone.

Theoretically the i9210 and i727 are the same phone for different markets, both are SGSII LTE. One is for North America and the other one is for the rest of the world.
The i989 and i9210 are supposed to have the same chipsets and as we know the i989 and i727(r) are intercompatible with some minor input.
So, theoretically, there shouldn't be too much danger in experimenting with software between these two phones.
But, I wouldn't try it, unless money grew on trees and I could just throw a phone away out the window after using it for a day because who cares I got a whole stack of new ones in my supplies room where I keep the $100 bills mountain. :laugh:

If you read carefully you will see that I never did say that they in fact are the same phone, regardless of which one you're referring to.
And I was not trying to list all the differences either. In lack of knowing better I assume that what you have pointed out is correct.
well my dumbass finally did it, i bricked my skyrocket. i had sky ics on it for months and was getting a little tired of it so i started playing with some other roms. i tried a new kernel on it and bam, all black, no vibration, no nothing. any combo of buttons or anything will bring her back. this totally sux for me because i am about to go on vacation and wasnt counting on kicking out the extra cash for another cell phone. just wanted to whine a little folks . thx for listening.

Doesn't look like a skyrocket kernel. Where did you find it? Were you trying to flash a jb kernel on a ics rom? That could brick too.

JTAG may save it. That'll set ya back $50. Beats shelling out $ for a new phone..

That's definitely not a skyrocket kernel. It's a Verizon wireless kernel from some other phone.

The times when i have soft bricked my phone is when messing with kernels. Now i just use the stock kernel for whatever rom i am using. Good luck

Where did you find this kernel? And was it labeled as Skyrocket, ATT, Galaxy, S2, LTE, sgh-i727, or anything else that resembles the phone?

friend told me about them and i looked them up, thats where its going. thanks for the help.
maybe you might have the same luck as toyes, use a usb jib or "dongle". They are very cheap. $5 and might save you the $50 jtag. Its worth a shot.

Don't waste the money, has been discussed many times that the USB jig is not helpful, send it off to get jtagged.

USB Jig did indeed save my phone. (Read back in the offtopic if you want more details.) But in this case here it is hardbricked and will not help. The only thing to do is jtag.
