i have a question for you guys what i have not
do for to get a cell phone brick ?
i have read many threads and the only way for to get it is by using application rom manager thats right or i can get a brick cell phone in odin software.
what if by a mistake set files in a wrong order in odin software
galaxy ace cf gingerreal v1.0 kph
thanks in advance
WHY would you put the wrong files in ODIN, just read the tutorial and follow it correctly?
And to kinda answer the question, what've read is that ODIN will not brick you phone, you might be able to get a bootloop though (just reflash and it should work fine).
Read the newbie guide(sticky thread) about Rom manager, it should be supported now but be cautious, better to use CWM app instead, or just reboot your phone to CWM (dont be lazy).
People brick their phone when unlocking their phone, there should be a proper solution that works without having to brick you phone.

hello guys..^_^
how are you.. I hope all things are good with you ^_^
actually I have a problem with my GS2
first thing I want to tell that I had decided to change my rom from odex to deodex one..
I had looking for a good one amd I found that Gangsbread is the best..but it doesn't work with my rom which is JPKF2 so that I had to change it to XXKH3 " a raw rom".. so I downloaded it and tried to flash it on my phone but it didn't work..
and I tried to switch my GS2 on but it doesn't work
I've downloaded the JPKF3 raw rom and tried to flash it.. and this what happened to me every time I tried to did it "the pics is within the attached files"~_~
I did with a different roms wuth a count of 33 but it doesn't success.. *_*
and now I have a message on my GS2 screen saying that..“Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in kies & try again”
please can I do anything to fix it ?
thanks for your time
You've put kernel on bootloader option?
You were supposed to download a .tar file, select it on PDA and flash, no re-partition

Asad4334 did you actually read the thread that JJ asked you to do. I would stop trying to use the files you download and get your stock rom for your phone and reflash that so you are back to the state when your phone was working. Those other files do not even look like GS2 firmware or kernel files.

Hmm Asad I think the files you initially used may right royally screwed your phone. They look like they were SGS1 phone files. If they were then I think your phone will require JTAG repair.
Let's hope there are more people with better knowledge can help you.

I think you can forget about the Deodexed Rom for now. You need to get back to stock. Looking at the pics you submitted. You may end up having to go Service Centre and have it Repaired. Be prepared to pay for the repair as well.

Allegedly??? LOLwut?
Read this:
In recent years it has become common for speakers to include allegedly in statements that are controversial or possibly even defamatory. The implication is that, by saying allegedly , the speaker is distancing himself or herself from the controversy and even protecting himself or herself from possible prosecution. However, the effect created may be deliberate. The use of allegedly can be a signal that, although the statement may seem outrageous, it is in fact true. Conversely, it is also possible to use allegedly as an expression of ironic scepticism.

Hi jithendra194,
if you already flashed the clockworkmode this could be the problem!
I know a friend who had to flash stockrecovery again, before rooting his device.
Rooting wasn't possible by using the clockworkmode, but with stock recovery rooting was successfully
So you can try flashing the stock recovery first (from here) and after it you should flash the upd_1.zip (from here)
Good luck
So the thing is I'm using ROOTBOX ICS rom, and because I'm willing to gift my phone to a cousin I did a Factory Reset, then my phone turn off and when it tries to wake up, after Samsung logo, it makes like a blink on the screen... every 3 seconds.
I can't enter CWM Recovery using VolUp+Menu+Power, however I can enter Download Mode using VolDown+Menu+Power.
So guys, give me a solution here please.
Thank you so much.

If you don't want to flash a stock ROM, root, and flash a custom ROM again, you can use one of odin flashable files for custom kernels, not all have one but you can check (Dorimanx for example)

Sir would do well to read through some of the guides (at least the highlights on the first few posts)
Chainfire wrote the following:
and pretty much all you need to know is
Instructions - ODIN (long)
- Follow these instructions to the letter. Do not touch any buttons or checkboxes that are not listed below to touch!
- Unzip the attached CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.zip
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start ODIN
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar
- Put your phone in download mode
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure repartition is NOT checked

- Wait for the phone to reboot

Then it's a matter of finding a kernel with a TAR that you're comfortable with and doing the above with that kernel rather than CF-Root-xxx-vX.X.tar although CF-Root is a fine stock insecure (rooted) kernel.
Personally, I rather like the Siyah kernel for which you can pick up the TAR file (you use TAR files with Odin) here
Consider donating a small amount to Gok if you have sufficient disposable income (same applies to anything you use long-term, IMHO).
You're welcome to PM me but be aware that I may take a while to respond (my wife is in hospt...)
Good luck and play carefully!

Ok.
Are you on gingerbread or ICS?
Ps: Never follow just any instruction/tutorials you find anywhere, when it comes to messing with your phone, because if anything should go wrong, those guys can not help you.

Exactly.
Just another clown that aint prepared to do ANY prep work.
Wants to do everything but knows nothing.Blatant disregard to procedures on here and everybody should be on high alert when he f#cks up his phone and he cant access teletubbies website.

Or someone who is nervous about breaking their expensive phone, knows that they have voided their warranty and hoped to find someone kind enough to hold their hand.
What I don't understand,@Theunderlying,is the motivation behind your post. If you don't wish to aid, why not just stay silent and avoid diminishing the reputation of the community. I hope it's not some reactionary neurosis because no one ever helped you early on forcing you to learn yourself with the aid of what has been discussed in the forums and that you don't like to see others degrading the purity of the forums now that you are better informed.
Ugh

This is actually worse than what @Theunderlying posted.
The thing is, OP would not respond to useful questions and answers in his other thread, while he kept asking the same question here.
I guessed that was what pissed @Theunderlying off.
Personally i believe the OP is a little impatient, bit in a hurry and he probably doesn't need that because if anything bad should happen to his phone, he will only have himself to blame

My motivation is to snap you out of being a lazy noob rule-breaker.Do you think I could have been doing other things than reading rules/guides and searching.
And your phone isnt more expensive than most of the users on here.
You could have read the rules AND the cm9 install instructions in the same time it took you to reply in your previous post.

Flash again - but be 100% certain the ROM you are using is for the precise version of S3 that you have!
because of this im use tutorial from ibtimes
Either ask that site what's wrong or use XDA methods to root .

do you still have warranty on your phone?
if it has, follow this guide so that you dont have to pay any fee
1. flash stock firmware and root it
2. after rebooted connect usb otg cable with usb mouse attach to it so you can navigate the screen on your phone.
3. install triangleaway and reset the binary counter on download mode.
4. after resetting the binary to no or 0, unroot your phone using supersu.apk and uninstall triangleaway
5. after unroot factory reset your phone.
6. you have to use again the usb otg to pass the welcome screen after factory reset
7. you are now ready go to the shop and claim warranty.

So nobody solve this problem yet?
Ok i had this problem days ago, unfortunately after putting the wrong file for rooting, the touchscreen doesnt work at startup screen.. This is harfware problwm u have to change the lcd and difitizer... Hard to believe but its true after wrong rooting seen blue flicking, i think it damages the chips oh well it made my pocket burn replacing one lol.
I finally get back my charming s3 with the warranty claim! Tq very much chris.
Ironically,i ask my friend about my phone problem,he say that its not about the hardware damage,but software,specifically,kernel.he said that i can just flash stock firmware through kies (not odin) to get thing back normal again.i did not do this method coz i already got my repaired s3.. so anyone encounter this problem maybe should try the method,perhaps?

yes try the kies method first before sending for repair.
but i dont think it will solve by kies update if you got the brick by flashing wrong cfautoroot.
maybe if you got the brick from flashing rom maybe it can be fix,

you dont have warranty on your phone? if you have, you dont have to pay for service repair for it in claiming warranty.
