[Completed] [Q] i9100g recovery mode missing and download mode has an android with a 0 in it. - XDA Assist

Hi
i recently bricked my phone while updating from stock to phils cwm recovery and my cable unplugged. After that my phone went just dead. I read on the internet and used a OMAP flash and after that i could access my download mode, but it has a yellow exclamation mark triangle and has the android mascot with a 0 in it. I dont know what that means.
Now i some how managed to put a stock rom in it (Gingerbread). But it never switches on. I keep getting a blank screen, not even the samsung bot load symbol comes up. But when ever i use a pit file to just repartition the device my phone starts up and the gingerbread os switches on. But it keeps flashing that every process of google is being forced close, so i cant even move ahead. its just stuck there, and error keeps coming up with force close pop up.
If i try to restart the device it gets the blank screen again. it works again if i repartition it.
i even tried nand flash, but it gets stuck in odin after the message Erase.....
i tried adding a new recovery to no avail. Neither does a new Android OS gets pushed in, gets stuck at NAND write start.
The phone doesnt let me access recovery also. It gets the same blank screen when i try.
help please

Hmm ... after flashing a custom (PhilZ-cwm) recovery, the yellow triangle shows that you are no longer on official/stock firmware.
You can reset it with TriangleAway app from Chainfire.
If download mode still works, you can try to flash another (custom) kernel with a custom recovery. But it has to be a kernel which is compatible with your current ROM.
For further questions, please post in the Galaxy SII GT-I9100 G Q&A thread.
If you have issues with your download mode, check the [GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked I9100G thread.

Thread closed ... thank you !

Help me fix my phone

I have a little problem and could use some help. I was running superclean 2.9.2 and attempted to switch over to the community rom. Before flashing the rom I downloaded the stock CI500_VZW_DL09_ECLAIR.tar.md5 file and attempted to load that with Odin(yes i chose pda). I have used Odin multiple times in the past w/out issues. Well this time my screen went blank on the Odin was stuck on param.lfs. When i disconnected my phone it now boots to the screen with a phone, exclamation point and a computer. I closed Odin restarted my computer and tried again with the same result. I can still access the download mode and CWM. When I try to complete a nandroid restore the phone goes through the whole process and then when I click to reboot I get the same screen as above. My next step was to download DI01package3.tar.md5. I tried pushing this with Odin and it got stuck on sbl.bin. Please help me get my phone back.

Samsung Galaxy S II Total OS Fail

Hello, I will try to explain how I got myself into my current situation which is kinda helpless and it ends up with the SGS II Logo on screen.
I rooted my phone - no problem
Flashed an Insecure Kernel - no problem
Flashed - CWM - no problem
Then I tryed to put the Ressurecion ICS mode.
Started CWM mode, wiped all data but for some reason soon afterwards my phone
turned off. When I started it again it always ended up at samsung logo screen :/
I can put it in download mode. I tryed to flash roms, with or without pit files.
When I do so I get this screen like terminal with many signs like "failed to load booth catche" etc, unable to mount,etc. Then I get the option to either reboot,to wipe data catche or factory reset. No matter what I choose I always end up at logo screen. Please,I beg of you help me !!

Star S5 Butterfly Completely Bricked!

guys i need serious help. i have had this device (name in title) for a while and i had it rooted. when resetting it from its menu it got stuck on android is upgrading screen for a couple of days. so i decided to restore it using sp flash tool. i went on needrom and got the latest rom from there BIG MISTAKE . i then flashed it correctly and it had booted but it would not let me use the screen because it had froze. so then forcing it to power off by removing the battery. unfortunately it never booted up again. now when trying to flash the first rom available it only shows the red bar and then i get an error ''BROM:S_ft_enable_dram_failed(4032).
i have noticed that when it booted up after flashing the rom it booted up with a htc bootanimation so the rom was a custom rom.
the setup screen also looked messed up.
i was told to right click on the preloader when it shows up and install the correct drivers manually. i did but i also noticed it had a yellow triangle and was named mt65xxx preloader. once updating it it is now called something like mediateck vcom preloader or close to that but when connecting the phone it oonly stays there for 2 seconds and disappears and never comes back unless i dissconnect and connect the phone again.
someone please help and if you need more info just message me.

Can't Root Galaxy S5 Stuck At Blue Bar

TLDR;
Trying to install custom recovery with odin auto-reboot checked off so stock doesnt replace odin says PASS I disconnect the phone but in downloading mode the blue bar is full and the phone doesn't want to shut down. I remove the battery and try to boot into custom philz-recovery it gets stuck in samsung logo. But functions perfectly on normal boot. I reset the whole phone and try the cf-auto-root method and the phone gets stuck in samsung logo now not even booting up normally. So i reset the whole phone again with odin and firmware from sammobile now sitting with a stock android and knox warranty ticked without having a root.
(Sorry for the long post I've tried to provide as much info as I can) So I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 exact model number SM-G900H. And I'm trying to root it. I go into download mode than I launch Odin and check off Auto-Reboot so it won't boot up and the stock recovery replaces the custom I'm trying to install, I connect the phone it says its connected than I select AP and than choose philz-recovery (latest version) and start it. So the Odin finishes its work says "PASS" in green letters. I disconnect the phone but on S5 the blue bar is full and it does not want to shut down (if the auto-reboot is checked it just reboots and it doesn't even want to boot into stock recovery just stuck on samsung logo) I've waited a good hour and still nothing. So I pull out the battery for it to shut down and than I straight try to boot into recovery and it just gets stuck on samsung logo and the blue letters don't even show up. Before rooting the recovery worked and I factory resetted the device before so samsungs knox does't interrupt with its not-being-able-to-boot-into-recovery-if-you-dont-know-the-password-to-the-samsung-account. And I'm now sitting here now with knox warranty ticked and not even rooted BUT I CAN STILL USE THE PHONE PERFECTLY WITHOUT TRYING TO BOOT INTO RECOVERY JUST BOOTS UP NORMALLY. So what I do than is reset the phones firmware with Odin from sammobile. Ok stock android. Than I try the Cf-auto root method with Odin. No luck phone just doesn't even boot up. So I reset the phone again same method. Ok stock android again. Sitting here reading through google for 8 hours 5 of thise spent on xda. STILL NO LUCK. So I hope someone can resolve the issue. I can't provide any pictures as I just rage closed my computer and didn't take pics. And if I install cynogenmod with heimdall is it going to be rooted (i know you don't need a root to do that) and can someone provide a guide to that heimdall cynogenmod install method?

My GT-P5220 is bootlooping weirdly, cant enter recovery mode but download mode can

Last week I factory reset the tablet in the settings app (normally), it works fine before I factory reset, but after I did the factory reset, the tablet keeps on booting on the samsung logo then to a android with something working on his stomach then android robot with a exclaimation mark on its stomach. Its keep happening over and over again. At first I thought it was one of the procedure to reset, but then I keep doing it for an hour so I turned the device off. I tried to enter recovery mode, but I cant. The only mode I could get into is Download Mode. So I found this method using Odin to recover. But it wont work also. Tried all kind of Stock ROM still wont work. Ive tried one ROM that made the boot loop different, instead of loop with android stuff like before, it just stays on the samsung logo. I have a video to show you the problem that Ive been facing
***search "Samsung Galaxy Mega GT-I9200 reboot loop, no recovery menu" on youtube***
since I cant share link with you guys
In my case there is no "No Command" words at the screen.
Any suggestion on solving this?
