[Q] Samgung Galaxy S2 - Non official ICS Fail attemp installation!

Hi,
This morning I tried to install the ICS on my Samsung Galaxy S2, model GT-I9100G bought in Germany SIM lock free, but the phone is not working any longer. I follow the instructions published on cnet.co.uk. I cannot type links here since I am new, but if you type in Google the following:
How to install ice cream sandwich on samsung galaxy s2, you will find them in the first link.
I used Odin and the "SetupConnection.." got stuck in the same status for 10 min. Therefore, I decided based on some information on the web to pull the usb cable, pull the battery off and try one more time.
I tried to put the phone into download mode one more time, but it was not possible. The phone was just showing something like the following:
Phone icon ... Warning sign (the yellow triangle with the ! inside) ... Computer
Anyhow, I try to install once again the ICS with Odin, but this is what I got:
<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..
<ID:0/005> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/005> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/005> boot.bin
<ID:0/005> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/005>
<ID:0/005> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
<ID:0/005> Removed!!
Suggestions or is the phone brick? Thank you

Hi,
An update of the issue with my phone.
I found the [GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked GSII on:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
I follow step 5 for "NAND rw coruption", I follow step 5 because I was not able to get to Download Mode. I used Odin to flash the kernel proposed by Phistachio, I9100XXKI3. It seems that it works.

After this, it shows a the following: Samsung Galaxy SII GT-I9100G with the yellow warning warning. After this procedure I was able to get into Download Mode. So I proceeded with the thread instructions from steps 1 to 4, using the Recovery Package/ROM proposed Phistachio, I9100XXKI3. However, this time the process did not work.

there are a different between GT-I9100G and GT-I9100
so be sure bro ..

yeh maybe rom not for your model i9100g

There isn't any ics ROM for the i9100G so you flashed a i9100 which bricked your phone.you should read in the gs2 section, there's a thread what to do know, just search for it

You can't flash roms from the i9100 because of different chipsets.

Hi everybody.
Thank you for Jahai advice on this thread. I looked deeper into the GS2 forum and I found what he has mentioned and I SOLVED the PROBLEM. My phone is fully operative once again.
Summary:
1.- I Bricked the GT-I9100G since I used a ICS not suitable for my phone. I got the same picture as the website below:
Look in Google under : Repair your bricked Samsung Galaxy S2...
Therefore I was not able to Go in Download Mode.
2.- I used the step 5 from, "NAND rw coruption", proposed by Phistachio, under the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1457458
I used the kernel he offered I9100XXKI3. With this procedure, I was able to y get the Download mode again after taking the battery off, and put it back and immediately Volume Down, Home and Power. Only step 5 nothing else.
3.- Then I followed the procedure defined by ToMmY_hun under the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448765&highlight=9100g
I have used the pit file as well. I tried without it, and I was not able to flash the firmware successfully. For more information about this step look at the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1568756&highlight=9100g

4.- The phone is working again.
Hope this help.

Re download factory rom and flash again in odin.. . You can also go in the recovery and clear cache and so on.. This will often stop a boot look . But it looks like you have a bad d/load

I'd agree with that.
I find it best to download the roms from Sammobile as they generally provide an MD5 sum you can check to make sure its not a bad download. Especially when using ODIN 4.03/07... ODIN 4.03 does the check before it flashes and ODIN 4.07 checks when the .tar file is selected.

temp
how temp for odin finish their installation
I think it's hang on: "<ID:0/006> NAND Write Start!! "

odin did not finish the installation process about 2 hours and even post thank you for helping me

You need to download the rom again to see if it's not a corrupted copy. Use a PC to download it from sammobile.com.
If the flash file you are using is corrupt you can flash it til this century ends and it won't work...
If it still doesn't get past nand write then I believe you may need a pit file to repartition your internal memory. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS OPERATION. Make sure you have the correct pit file and if possible get it with an MD5 checksum so you know there is nothing wrong with the downloaded file. It MUST be for your device or bricking may occur, it MUST not be corrupted or bricking will occur.
Good luck and remember, you have been warned...

[Q] I717 Odin Flash help; What's wrong?

I've soft bricked my Galaxy Note I717 3 times in the last week while trying to update to the Jellybean firmware. Samsung Kies does not work. It says that there was a communication error during the upgrade process, whatever that means. I took it to the ATT store and they revived it within a few minutes with no data loss. This happened twice. I just tried to manually flash the update using odin, but I get this message:
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..

Now I'm stuck in download mode. I tried to flash the Jellybean ROM again, but it stops right there. I'm currently runnin the stock ICS firmware. Any suggestions?

[Completed] Galaxy Note 5 (Sprint) N920P can not flash rom in TWRP

I have successfully installed TWRP without a hitch, and I can roll that back to stock recovery if I need to. Now, I have tried every available Sprint friendly rom I can find including stock ROMs. MOAR, etc. Every time I try to install a zip I encounter the same error:
Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file.
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/customROMfile.zip'
Not sure if this helps but the only zip file it ever successfully installed was Galaxy Note 5 OGD/OI6/OK3 Stock Deodexed Roms (https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...galaxy-note-5-ogd-deodexed-stock-rom-t3191065) That installed correctly but when rebooting the phone is exactly the same - hangs on boot flash SAMSUNG logo screen as soon as you turn it on.
I did try to roll back to the stock firmware using Odin but when I try to choose the file within Odin to push to the phone Odin freezes. I have spent 3 days on this now and I really don't know what to do. I hope I didn't brick this $400 phone. Any help is surely appreciated as I have already had to buy a cheap replacement for the time being.
These are the errors I receive when trying to flash a .tar (stock recovery, custom rom,) within Odin (every version I have tried...... so many different versions its crazy)

Hi !
Try to use some different Odin versions and also be sure you flash the proper firmware file for your device
