Hi,
I have a sgs2 that only boots into download mode. I have photos and music on the internal SD card that I'm afraid will get deleted if I flash stock using Odin. I searched the forum but couldn't find a guide on how to recover files in download mode.
Device information:
I9100
Unlocked (no contract)
No external SD
Rooted
Slimkat build 5
Only boots if connected to a charging cable
I think there's a possibility that it's a hardware issue since I didn't download anything that modifies the recovery and it was working fine for a couple months on slimkat before it suddenly stopped booting.

I purchased a Sprint Nexus S 4G off of amazon.com and when I received it, it was bricked. I went to the Sprint store tech center for help and they were no help at all. I've looked through many help sections for this but have yet to recover the phone to a workable mode. It simply says, "FASTBOOT MODE - NO BOOT OR RECOVERY IMG"
It has ClockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.0 but I have gone through the menu and done a factory reset/reboot with no luck. I'm at my wits end on trying to get this phone to a working state. I can mount the USB storage to my computer and view it but I really don't know what to do with it or what files, if any, I could use to restore it. Screenshots are provided of what I am seeing. Any help would be appreciated.
Download a Nexus S rom > Mount the phone to USB > Put the rom on the root of the phone's memory > Flash the rom.

My Phone is rooted and i flashed the Jelly Smart R1
Where i wipe all the necessary data and rebooted
then i just stucked in boot screen + no recovery mode + no download and fastboot mode +
and also my usb debugging is off.
I tried to connect it in my pc and it detects it but after a few seconds it doesnt detect it.
I think the problem here is i accidentally formatted the bootloader.

Can't turning on the phone and device nothing show other than device name and cwm mode. Ic
I can not access the device.

Hi,
Thanks for using XDA assist.
You should be able to download your phone's stock firmware from a site like sammobile and use ODIN to flash the stock rom files onto your phone (while in download mode). This should restore your phone to stock state.
Alternatively, you can create a XDA account and post in the Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Good Luck! - gsstudios
Greatful Thanks for suggestion.
Your provided trick worked fine but one question reveal on mind with respect to this operation, can I upgrade a jelly bean 4.2.2 up to kitkat/lolipop version of android like as same process ?
I am using a copy version on Samsung galaxy note 4 SM N9100. i searched a lot about installing custom recoveries. I saw odin is one of the best , but couldn't use it as my device was not recognized. then used flashr to install a philiz recovery and it warned my that i have 0 mb partition or something like that. but i was not sure and pressed OK, it said success and gave a option to boot on recovery mode. i tried. But it dint load the recovery mode. at first the Samsung logo cam then restarted again. but after restarting its not detecting any of my sim cards. what can i do now. i have taken a back up before but even cant restore it as i cant go to the previous recovery mode. the reason i tried to install the custom recovery because the default recovery mode dint allow me to install zip file. please help me. I'm in a very bad position. I love my android very much
