I rooted my galaxy s2 and i tried installing my own ROM and i have no idea what i did because now my phone is stuck on a black screen, it wont restart it wont go to the recovery page it wont reboot or anything. Does anybody have any advice? Please help me, im freaking out!
It's a bootloop. You'll have to reflash generic firmware for your phone and start again, with a clear idea of what you are going to do
Try downloading a stock ROM and flash it with FLASHTOOL... You'll have to know how to put your Samsung into flash mode...

A lot of people including myself lost recovery after flashing this rom, did you reference the how to guide located in the dev section on how to get recovery back after flashing miui? If you didn't than you should. If you've tried everything with no luck than you may have to return to stock and start over. But try the steps located on the muiu rom page.

Thanks!
i took the easy road; download mode / Odin / back to stock froyo ROM
again rooted and now trying some other ROMs! thank you very much!
i was flashing my phone back to stock rom gb and it would not reboot got stuck at the samsung logo .. so i finally got it to go into download mode but it is now stuck there .. can someone give me some kind of help .. i have flashed this thing many times but never had this problem
There is a galaxy ace forum mate what do you mean by stuck in download mode? Did you flash a rom and didn't reboot automatically therefore stuck in download mode? Or did you boot into download mode but you want to get out of it but can't(if so, just remove the battery)?

You don't know what download mode is? Have you really tried to flash anything mate?
To flash anything through odin you need to be in download mode first. Try flashing a stock galaxy ace rom and see if it solves your problem. There is a galaxy ace section, try to search for it mate and i advice you to read before attempting to flash anything.
When you said you flash something, you mean through CWM? How did you get CWM if you didn't even know what download mode is?
Anyway, you are better of reading guides on how to flash a galaxy ace. It's pretty simple

interesting,
Ive been using the thread to Odin back to stock as im getting a replacement phone in a few days. Followed everything correctly, but Ive been getting a boot loop between the green android guy and the white Samsung startup logos. Redid the process in odin and now im getting "firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please select recovery mode in Kies and try again" when I go to download mode. i know I have a saved Nandroid backup on my SDcard, I just cant get to it. I also have mini Kies installed on my computer if there is a way to fix it thru that. I cant figure out how to get into recovery mode either. If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated! Im just trying to get my phone working until my replacement is here.
I did Odin again, but now im stuck in a boot loop between the greenm android guy and the white samsung startup screens.

That's because you had to factory reset and erase all data before flashing to stock. I had the same issue when flashing from dk4 to stock to lf4

If helped don't be afraid to hit the thanks button it doesn't bite lol
So how do I get my phone working again? Its stuck in a bootloop after following the directions for Odin back to stock thread

This issue only occured when you uncheck Auto reboot in Odin. Try Odin again with Auto reboot checked
If you getting an boot loop, do exactly what I've done in Odin thread
If you get a boot loop All you do is boot in stock recovery and wipe data

Can't go to stock recovery in this case. This issue only occoured when Odin to stock ROM after using/flashing custom ROM that you forgot to format system or clean data. I've run into this problem before
It looks like after all this, Titanium Backup's backup was erased. I do have a Nandroid saved on my SDcard. Is there a way to pull everything from that? When I go to CWM and try to do a Nandroid, it says there isnt anything there. But When I connect to my computer, I can see the saved backup. I have been able to pull a few backed up apps off the Nandroid backup, but only certain ones or it says batch restore failed. Im wonder how it can see the Nandroids, but CWM cant? They're saved on my SDcard.
Is there another way Titanium Backup saves backups that I could possibly get to them? Im really trying to figure this out before my replacement phone gets here in a few days. I did backup everything, Im just having a difficult time restoring after the numerous problems Ive had thanks to Tmobile's "troubleshooting"
What are you currently running? If you are back to stock titanium won't function correctly as you have to be rooted. But since you mentioned cwm I wasn't sure.

Im just on stock but I am rooted. I just dont know where all my backups went after the bootloop and issues with reverting to stock after Tmobilr screwed up my phone trying to figure out why I kept getting "Call Ended" when trying to dial out.
Where is your nandroid backup currently located?
Sent from my SGH-T769 using Tapatalk 2
On my external SDcard/clockwork mod/backup/ whatever the date was.
Seems normal. Not sure why it wouldn't be visible. Sorry I can't be more help.
Sent from my SGH-T769 using Tapatalk 2
In recovery they are visible, but when I go to flash one it says no files found..
I was also stuck in a boot loop after attempting to get my phone back to stock since I got a replacement phone. Followed all of the instructions, but realized although I did a factory reset, I forgot to wipe data. So I simply got CWM through Odin....got into recovery wiped data....rebooted and voila! I'm back to stock no root. It took all of 1 minute to do. Maybe that will work for you too

Thank you for your quick response.I am able to get to recovery mode.and wipe data and factory reset.I got cm10 1117 nightly on my SD card and I install that and my phone is back.then I install jelly bean Google app.I will never try to go back to stock ROM again. this ROM is cm10 1117 nightly is better than stable cm10 for me.I thank all the devs who worked together to bring this your effort is much appreciated.
This is how I get to recovery mode on my Samsung galaxy s blaze.
1.press the vol up + vol down + power button at the same time.
2.as soon as the Samsung logo light up I release power + vol down button but not releasing releasing vol up button but rather press it harder..and there it comes....may be someone might be having the difficulty I had before
Give it a try...

Hello. I recently tried to install the ICS Rom, but was unsuccesful. I had the Clockworld Recovery app, and did a back up of my original ROM.
I tried to update to the new ROM, but did not do a data wipe. I didnt know if it would wipe all my data, which I needed. I DID do a dalvik cache wipe...
I tried to boot into recovery, but it was no use. I cannot download any software on my computer, so no programs will work.
I need the phone ASAP. It gets stuck on the boot up. It displays the Samsung Galaxy Y screen, plays a different type of music from the original, and gets stuck on the black screen.
Please help! I am new and only a 13 year old! I need my phone for emergency uses! And soon! NEED SUPPORT NOW!:crying:
Did I brick my phone? Softbrick? Should I bring it to the tech? Please HELP!

If there is any response lights or anything, it is possible to recover it. But you need a computer unfortunately. Don't go around saying cause your 13 is an excuse for not being able to do this. I'm 13. Anyway try as hard as you can and download Odin for your device and I don't know exact details cause your phone is different from mine, but Odin it to stock. Try asking around your device forums and find a guide in the development forum.

Actually this is not a big issue.. but need a bit workout to solve this..
First thing is dont be panic and be aware of what you are doing..
What happened now is a sift brick.. It happened because of the errors caused during installing CWM and which prevent you from booting.
The solution is to flash your phone with the original stock firmware of Galaxy Core using Odin after going into download mode. Hope you are familiar with the process.. Feel free to ask if you have doubts.

Hi,
I kinda have a similar problem. Installed cwm through adb, as the phone wont detect in odin. Then booted into recover, made backup and installed Kit-cat rom. Now the phone wont boot at all. Just comes back to recovery. I tried restoring backup, still doesnt work.
Also tried monster rom. Still the same problem.
Now i cant even flash stock, as it wont detect on odin. However other galaxy core's detect and work fine.
Is there anything i can do to restore.?
Cant even take it to samsung, as it'll boot into custom recovery and they will know i messed up the phone.
Any help is really appreciated.. thanks..

I'd try reinstalling drivers, connecting with a different USB port, reinstalling OS.

See whether your phone is getting detected in some other PC, there is chance your micro USB port might have been damaged.

Done reinstalling drivers, also changed USB cable/ports.. The thing is, other galaxy core's get detected.. Galaxy SL does, galaxy pro does.. only this particular device doesnt.!

I face a harder problem considering that my I-8262 Duos, rooted and with custom CWM, blocked at the first try to install from zip Monster$. Then the bachup md5 mismatched and the device isn't detectable by Odin (any version). Flash Stock have I tried with no sucess. Adb sideload gives me a sintax error. Maybe there the error is mine. Only for notice of fellow reader. Acepting suggestions.

When you connect your device to PC, you are not getting any response from PC or is it showing USB device not recognized. Hope you have Kies and all drivers present on your PC.
Md5 mismatch is foubd for your Nandroid backup right?
First you try installing a ROM zip from recovery. Also do full data wipe,cache and all cleared. Search in forums that you can get a flashable zip of official firmware.
