Hi,
While flashing the device got stuck and have to unplug..
now the device is not booting and black screen is displayed...I think the device is dead ... I tried all the option
- volume down + power button
- press power button for 20 - 30 sec
- remove battery for 24 hrs and put it back n try again to boot
but nothing work...
Is there any way to start my GS2 again?
Hold the volume down & home buttons tight & keep them held down. While you're holding them down, press the power button & keep pressing it until you see the start screen. When/if you do, release the power button but keep holding down the volume down & home buttons until you see the download mode screen.
If you can't get into download mode, your next best chance is to try a jig. If you can't get into download mode, I strongly suggest you order one from eBay post haste (search for "Samsung Galaxy S2 jig").
If the jig fails, it's back to Samsung/your telco for repair (probably at your cost given flashing non-Samsung firmware voids your warranty).
What happens when you hook it up to a charger ? And what happens when you hook it up to a PC via USB cable ?

Can you get to recovery or download mode ???
RECOVERY= Vol Up + Home + Power release at splash screen
Download = Vol Down + Home + Power
USB Recovery JIG to enable download mode search XDA buy EBay .

What have you flashed?
Did you come as previous speakers have said in the download mode?
More Information please

it's dead plzzz help me to fix it
Are u referring to the market? if so... while on market page..press the menu button.
No. Download mode... hold volume down and boot it up, just hold down both until it pops up.
Why is it that there are like 4 different ways posted of how to boot into Download mode on each of the download mode threads but none of them work for me? Is it because I'm retarded and missing something simple or is this phone really that touchy to boot into download mode?
Can someone either post a very detailed account of how to boot the phone into Download mode or post a picture as proof that you have reached download mode successfully so I can at least know what it is supposed to look like should I ever make it there. Prob a good thing I havent made it there yet as I'd just end up flashing the wrong rom and mess up my phone, but it is just really bugging me that people have been posting about this, yet none of the methods in the posts have worked for me.
So far I've tried vol up+pow, vol down+pow, and vol up/down+pow with usb plugged in....Vol up+pow from the phone being fully booted and all the other combinations from recovery and the charging battery screen. What am I missing? Thanks to anyone who can point out my retardation, should it be my fault that it is not working for me.
I have recorded a video for my problem
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYLI8gUN3S4
I was able to root my Vibrant following the thread in here... u gotta hold down BOTH the volume up and down keys AND the power key.... it worked... ( use ur right hand...three fingers to make sure u do it right)
thank you
I tried these
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power }
Hold down; {volume both UP and DOWN + Power } + plug in USB
Hold down; {volume DOWN + Power } = Recovery mode
Hold down; {volume UP + Power } = upload mode !
I tried more than 5 millions times what can i do
are there a ways open the internal SDcard then put update.zip and use recovery mode instead download mode ?
I had this same problem also the first day I got my phone...I installed an update.zip that caused the phone not to boot, and for the life of me could not get it into download mode to flash with odiin3. I read all the download mode post, so I thought maybe it was whatever I installed in the update.zip that cuased the button layout to change and thats why I couldn't figure it out. But I returned the phone...and now I still cannot get the phone into download mode.
To my understanding holding vol up+down and then hitting power sends you into recovery, which is totally different from download mode...So can someone clear this up...is the same screen displayed for download and recovery, just with different modes activated on the phone, or do they both show different pictures? Also again...I have still not reached download mode...so if you have a detailed account of how to do such...please post it...
Thanks.
Adb push update.zip /sdcard/update.zip
Do that while in recovery...
Also, I if vol down and power don't work try vol up because you may have flashes a European updated and their buttons are different. For me if flipped the volume buttons.
Oh, and hold the buttons through two cycles seems to help me

Ok, I made a sh**ty video just now, uploading to youtube...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9LYLoK1Qog
EDIT: The video isn't the best, the camera apparently didn't like the screen much and the lighting is bad but I think it gets the point across... Sorry for being so monotone...
I tried to open internal;Sdcard but I couldn't iconsider that is the solution
I need to give an authorization to do this like : Mount from the notification menu to open the internal sdcard
I wrote some commands by run so appear to me; permission denied
iam so sad
iam going to go to t-mobile store they might solve my problem
I seriously can't get my vibrant to download mode. I have check every combination and no I haven't flssh any firmware. I am in the stock one. This is serious problem.

I'm having the same problem. Simply cannot get into download mode. I have to believe that something else is going on here!
hi guys
I went to RadioShack I told them , I was honest to explain the problem that I downloaded a wrong firmware EU on my phone so the software broken
although they exchange the phone hhhhh
I am so happy now
i really won't back to rooting and "download mode" until hell freezes over
I'll be a polite customer just waiting the officially updates

Just rooting isnt that dangerous... it was the fact that it was the wrong firmware, not just that you flashed the firmware. Either way it's your choice and if you are happy with that more power to you, but the risk of doing anything with the rooting process is pretty low.
I've had good repeatable luck getting into download mode as follows:
1. Power down phone with no USB cable connected.
2. Once you see "good bye" connect USB cable.
3. Wait till battery indicator is visible, and you can see the current charge in green.
4. Hold vol+ and vol-.
5. Press power until screen goes black, then let go of power only.
6. Should see the yellow digger.
Again, your mileage may vary.

I can not thank you enough for this. Although I just took the battery out instead of powering down. So it appears the key is to making sure the battery indicator is on, and that you release the power button as soon as the screen goes black. I tried so many other combinations...even holding the power button past the screen turning black, but I got this on first try.
Thanks!
If you've got ADB setup just do 'adb reboot recovery'...
Is there a differnence between download mode and recovery mode?
Help,
My phone just stuck at the Samsung Galaxy SII GT-19100G screen..
I can't enter CWM recovery mode or Download mode as well
When I press Volume Button UP + Home + Power, it will turn off the phone and never turn back on. When I release the Volume Button Up + Home, it turned back on and stuck at the screen again.
In fact I can't even power off my phone.. When I power off it, it will auto restart and stuck at the screen again..
Anybody.. please help
I'm only taking a wild stab in the dark here but my guess is you flashed firmware for the I9100 onto your I9100G device.
Best to download firmware for the "G" model and flash via download mode. If you have a jig it might come in handy.
Looks like you have some research to do. Good luck.

Yes, lucky I manage to flash it back to the original ROM.

For reference Vol Up + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Manual Mode, not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode.

NO NO NO it puts the phone to RECOVERY MODE
not turn it off. Vol Down + Home + Power is used to start the phone into Update Mode
NO NO NO It puts the phone to DOWNLOAD MODE .

Yesterday it suddenly off and keep restarting and not going into touch-wiz i am not familiar with android platform. I have tried to get into download mode (power + volume-down + menu button) and in recovery mode (power + volume-up + menu button) after getting into recovery mode android logo disappears quickly then restart and also getting into download mode phone shows the warning page i press the volume up button to get into download mode but phone restart.
I had removed the battery for one day and put it back and phone start auto without pressing the power button and it goes to start up Samsung galaxy logo then restart and keep restarting. Now, whenever i put the battery back phone start auto and keep restarting.
I need help what should i do?
Maybe power button got stuck?

It certainly sounds like the power button is shorted out, send for warranty repair.

this happened to me once. i removed the battery for a few minutes. then put it back and immediately entered the recovery mode. i hold the combo for a long time so that the samsung logo appears for 3 times and after the 3rd time, i released the combo and it entered the recovery mode. may/may not work for you. but worth trying? sounds funny but worked for me unexpectedly!!

I'm not sure what's happening to my phone. It keeps shutting down. I can't use my phone if it's not plugged in to a charger.
Anyone with the same issue?
Hi , probably you have bad battery which doesn't keep energy , some issue on your usb charging port or you have some software issue .
Make sure you backup your data , remove all accounts from your phone like Google , Samsung ...
Now , make sure your phone is off , now hold together Vol + , Home button and Power button at the same time keep holding like that and plug charger on it to get the power keep holding like that and once your phone vibrate one release power button but keep pressing Vol - and home key until you see Recovery menu. Do Wipe cache partition and Factory Reset with vol - and vol + key and confirm with power button , once you do that reboot your device and wait for full system loading . Once system is full loaded turn off your phone and remove charger , now try to power on your device and see if the problem is fixed.
If you have still that issue put your phone in download mode the same way as above just this time use vol - instead vol + button.

Hi , if you changed brand new Original and working battery and still it wont work without charger then probably you need to replace new power IC . So is better to send him to some legit Service Center .

It shows the logo whenever it has battery power. It cannot be turned off unless the battery dies. After letting the battery die and charging the phone, it immediately shows the logo screen without me touching any buttons.
I cannot put it to download or recovery mode. I have tried holding power + volume down and power + volume up buttons.

Looks like it is hard bricked the only option you have is let the battery drain connect it to your PC and hold the button combo for download mode, and keep trying until it enters download mode. And the download mode combo for J series is Volume up + Volume down + insert USB cable
