[Q] Stuck in Odin Mode/No Recovery Mode - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

Hi. I have scoured the message boards looking for someone who has had the same issue as me so I'm sorry a head of time if I am doing a complete repost and someone's already gotten an answer on this. A couple of days ago I began the update for Jelly Bean via Kies on my Skyrocket. It was taking a while (I have slow internet) so I went off and did my thing while I was waiting for the update. My fiance didn't know what my phone was doing plugged in and disconnected the link between Kies and my phone. Ever since then, my phone refuses to get out of Odin Mode. I have tried doing a factory reset via Kies. I've also tried putting it in Odin (which does recognize my phone) and putting it back to Stock GB. No dice, so I've downloaded about three different links to Stock GB and every one of them fail. The screenshot shows where my phone gets to in Odin. Generally, it gets to that point and stays there for eternity (I have left it loading for several hours a couple of times and it just won't move) or it'll get to that point and immediately show "FAIL". In addition to trying to revert back to Stock GB, I've also tried to get into recovery mode, but for whatever reason, my phone doesn't go into it at all. Thanks so much in advance for any help y'all can give!

I think you're hosed. Unplugging it in the middle of the kies flash probably messed up the partitions. If it's still under warranty I'd try that route. Otherwise jtag is your option.

It's a service that'll get your phone running again. Google mobiletechvideos. It'll cost about $50.

Don't take your phone back if you're past 30 days of purchase they'd give you a refurbished one. The fact that your phone goes into the download mode and Odin can push files in is all you need.
Start out with the same stock ROM and this time check the update bootloaders.
If it didn't work get the clockworkmod recovery touch 5.8.3.1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566613
The .tar version, put it in the same PDA update of your Odin, flash and be ready after the phone reboots pull the battery and the USB cable and see if you can get into recovery using 3- button combo.
Vincom's threads are also a massive resource of goodies you can use.
Don't give up and you'll see that skyrocket come back.
Good luck.

Tab in big problem
Hi everyone.
Im from MExico and i use...used a Galaxy Tab P1000LUMJI with Voicecall capabilities, well, until few minutes ago and i am really new with Galaxy Tab, i installed this them through recovery mode just like the instructions.
Everything went perfect but when it rebooted, it stopped in black screen with "samsung" glowing. Additionaly, its like a cycle because the process is not freezing just making the same glowing screen,.
The tab vibes first one time and after that two times again.
Any solution to remove that update.zip?
Help!!
jae hoon: try to use all clear options in the recovery menu. something similar happened to me and my galaxy s phone and that solved the problem.

Thanks for your advice, i tried that, i selected all the options: wipe and clear cache and data to factory through recovery mode....still same.
I think once i applied the update.zip, something like the kernel changed mine. The big problem if it is so, is we are so few members with the Galaxy Tab from Telcel here in Mexico.
I think i will take it to warranty service.
I hope they can do something.
bad news, good news
Hi.
Today i went to my carrier customer office and i they took the tab to check it and reinstall the OS... at least they didnt complain nothing. I have to go back to my office for a while.
I came back from the customer service and the bad new is they cant save the tab. But inmediately they gave me a replacement. ufff! I was being worried.
I will better to help developers in getting more info or development of latin carriers.
can i use it on JMG?
ya, can you help to port this theme to JMG?
nice theme....thanks you.....
It would be great to see this for overcome rom ....

[Q] GingerReal won't run on Galaxys s4g?

Alright guys, need some help here. I went here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1155623 and followed the step 1 exacly as told. Using Galaxy s 4g..the odin stated a pass..but the phone turned off and it won't power up no more..could somone have any idea on this?
Only flash roms for the SGH-T959V and not any other model
First look up in the bible (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117554) the guide on how to get into download mode. Your phone will hopefully get recognized.
Second, look up raver's KC1 cleanup. Search for raver, you should find it. That should get you back on a clean SGS4G rom.
Third, don't install ROMs that wasn't made for your phone.
Perhaps because it's not made for this phone... From my understanding, you should never use anything that's NOT made specifically for this phone.
Despite the similarities this phone is very different.

yeah, flashing roms made for other phones is a good way to kill the Galaxy S 4G. never flash a rom that is made for another phone. it might still be recoverable though.. look up the posts on unbricking your phone using heimdall, maybe you can find something that works.

Not necessarily. There is always a chance on getting Odin to recognize it.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Ouch, should've read around the forum more. :T
Does Odin recognize your phone at all when you plug it in? Try the methods to get into download mode and see if Odin recognizes it. If it does, you might be able to restore your phone.
If that doesn't work, try this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220181&highlight=debrick
I haven't really read that thread in detail myself, so maybe others could help you out on that.
Open odin on your computer.
Do a battery pull. Put the battery back in. Hold vol + and -, then plug the usb cable in. If Odin recognizes it, you're in luck.
You should at least be able to get to download mode. When you say it wont power up does it at least show the battery image with the USB plugged in while off? If it does you should be able to hold vol down and power to get to download mode and use ODIN to flash a new ROM.
If it's a blank screen and Odin won't recognize the phone look up raverx3x 's tutorial on how to re-install the correct bootloaders using Heimdall. It worked for me. I can't give you the link because I'm not at the computer now. Once you get the phone to boot you will probably have to flash back to stock using the KC1 cleanup rom and go from there.

assumeing he didnt try
I had problems b4 similar to this. Pull the battery, plug in USB, hold down volume up and down at the same time, then put battery back in without letting go and see if that works. If not go to the forum that you flashed the wrong Rom and see if they have a different button combo for dl mode than we do.
Hope this helps

Reboot screen messed up?

So I'm not sure when this happened, but when I hold my power button for a hard reset, this is the first thing that comes up after the phone shuts down. The sequence goes
1) Hold Power button
2) Screen off
3) This messed up screen
4) SAMSUNG logo
5) ROM bootscreen
Anyone have any idea what this is and how to fix it? This is HUGE nuisance, and if anyone could help, I'll owe you a beer.... or vodka

I would try flashing a differnt kernel...if that doesnt work, trt flashing a different rom, if that doesnt work try odin back to stock or pre-rooted stock and see if the problem continues
Also it may help to know what rom/kernel you are running

ODIN to stock using GB ODIN. You'll be good to go
Thanks for the replies, I actually forgot about this thread. I ended up using GTG to flash back to stock to install Zeus and it fixed this problem. I think the original issue happened when I tried to put a custom bootanimation.zip on the phone... now I'm afraid to tweak the bootscreen...
Fear not! At the most you might end up reverting to stock. No big deal, and its worth experimenting.
hi my screen is the same as the guy in the post. but mine is due to the fact im a rogers phone and i installed att gb 2.3.6 and now im stuck as att. is there a way out of this so i can go back to rogers. i tried all the rogers kernels and so on. unless there is a rogers boot somewhere i can download
Display Issue HELP!
Ok my phone has this same problem...anytime upon starting the phone that colorful snowey screen will show for about 5-6 sec right before you see the at&t logo. then it goes away and everything works perfect. I will also occasionally show up when i launch the camera! so I cant see what im taking a picture of but it will still capture the picture just fine...weird. This phone was doing this while NOT ROOTED...any help please!?

It sounds like yours may be a hardware issue, but I can't say for sure, I would say take it to AT&T, but your warranty is busted. So my best advice is to use google.com and see if anyone else is having the same issue.
yeah ive googled all day long and this is the only thing I can find on the issue...damn. Thanks
No prob, I wish I knew more so I could help, but I have never heard of that issue
The rainbow screen in the picture is due to using a kernel with the wrong bootloaders. You are most likely running a GB or ICS ROM on froyo bootloaders. Odin back to stock 2.3.6 and flash the BL's.

[Q] [URGENT]Lg G2x stuck on LG logo screen after Cyogen 7 flash

Hey guys,
well i installed clockworkmod rom manager and used that program to upgraded to cyogenmod 7.
It seems that after the backup and install of the new rom, my phone now only boots to the LG logo screen. This is a very big problem for me since I do not have nvflash installed and only CWM.
The main issue is when i boot into CWM, i can can navigate around, however the power button does not work for selecting anything. I can't select reboot, can't do anything. Which brings me to another thing, CWM ONLY has "reboot phone", "wipe cache", "wipe partition", "apply sd card update.zip"(have Cygen mod rom on my sdcard).
What do you guys recommend me doing ot fix this? I'd be happy just bringing the phone back to stock.
Any help ASAP would be great as i need my phone working sooner rather htan later.
First off rom manager doesn't work on this phone. Second go to this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33748097 go to nvflash clockworkmod section and use the tools provided on a pc it sounds kinda complicated but its not. Its the only way i know to fix the problem
All the way from mars

Hey,
Sorry about htat. Ill reupload a photo.
I am holding down both volume buttons. THe funny thing is that when i pull the battery, hold the two buttons down, then plug in the phone, it doesn't go to the "S/W Upgrade" screen. It stays black. Once I initiate one of the NVflashes, the screen then switches over to the "S/W Upgrade screen".
Should it be going to this upgrade screen after a short bit after i plug it in? Is this an issue?
Well guy's.
Following that post worked. For some reason everytime i would do at home, it wouldn't work. I tried running nvflash as admin/non admin, still showed the error.
However coming into work and using my work computer, resolved the issue. I got the experimental touch based CWM up and running and was able to use a coworkers G2x to access my SD card to put Cyanogen 7 on which then allowed me to flash that ROM to my G2x.
All is working well now!!! Thank god for the nearly unbrickable phone

Not a big problem though.. You are in bootloop,in order to get out of it. If cwm is working then go there and wipe everything. After that go to DOWNLOAD Mode and flash your sock ROM of your phone. It wil surely work.

Not needed you can only delete cwm by flasing the stock recovery or a stock rom with odin!
Maybe you should go to the Galaxy S2 forums and ask it there!
