installed cwm instead of rooting first onto a clean sgs2 ..i need help please? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi
SHORT VERSION
installed cwm via odin onto sgs2 then cf root after.
phone goes into recovery and cwn but wont boot. (boots to logo then goes off)
i have original stock rom and .dll files
scared to flash through odin using .pit with .dll
LONG VERSION
ok let me slap my self round my own head.
i should of known better as i have rooted and installed cwn
so many times before but on this occasion i blame tiredness and
people yapping in my ears.
what i have did was to installed cwm onto a new 4.0.3 sgs2 phone via odin (pda then start)
then after noting my mistake i tried to boot the phone. it boot to logo screen then switch off.
i decided to cf root it with odin (again only pda and start) but again the phone boots to logo and triangle
then goes off.
maybe im in good luck the phone goes into recovery mode and cwn but wont boot.
i have the stock rom files that i downloaded
1, I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar.md5
2. SS_DL.dll
with the above files i thought i could use the .PDA and ss_dl.dll for the .PIT in odin but im not 100%
sure since i do know that IT usage in odin will mess up the phone.
please can some one help me out thanks
HTCdia

.dll is not a .pit file...

Do not use the .pit file unless you understand 100% what you're doing, as its one of the easiest ways to brick your device.
I have a few questions before I can help you.
Can you get into download mode?
- If you can go to www.sammobile.com, download a stock firmware, flash through odin. If it still doesnt boot, try to wipe data/factory reset through 3e (stock recovery), then try to boot again.
-- After you do that, flash a cf-kernel to root the device.

does odin support .md5 file i have in the pda ..... man im really getting gittery
thanks

the stock file i have is I9100XXLPQ_I9100OXALPQ_I9100XXLPQ_HOME.tar.md5
but know im worried about the .md5 at the end
ill be back later with a progress since sammobile takes long to download if you dont have a paid account

Yes, you can flash .md5 files in Odin.
That file is a single package and should contain everything you need. Flash via Odin in the PDA section. Don't touch anything else.
Also. You are SURE you have an i9100, right?

Can't flash with ODIN - PLEASE help!

Spent a frustrating day trying to sort this so I'm posting here as a last resort as I'm at the end of my tether!!
So. Was browsing the marketplace(new style) and my phone crashed and then would not reboot. It would only go as far as the Samsung Galaxy S2 screen. so I took out the battery and half an hour later returned to see if all was well when I reinserted the battery. It wasn't. I should point out at this point that I was happily using the latest MIUI and appart from the occasional reboot all was well. When reinserting the battery did not work I tried to reboot into CWM but found that I could not. I can however reboot into download mode so have been trying to reflash my phone using that. However I can't get past factoryfs.img! It just stops there every time! Tried :
Usb Jig
Different USB ports
Restart computer
Reinstalling Kies drivers
A different version of ODIN
Many different ROM files (including Litening 1.5 which I know works from a previous flash)
Re downloading various ROMs in case the download was dodgy
Please, please help. I just don't know what to do now
Im thinking its very possible that something in your phone fried and the only option you have is service.. From the way you describe things as not advancing past factory fs.
You make no mention of flashing a stock rom via Odin .That is the normal method of recovery.

Unistalled Kies
Installed a newer Kies
Tried Odin 1.83 instead of 1.85
Since reinstalling Kies and reinstalling the drivers, my computer won't recognise the phone at all even in download mode. Might have to admit defeat soon
Flash this recovery package, which is XXKI3, 2.3.5, Open Europe http://hotfile.com/dl/130600047/b70801e/I9100XXKI3.rar.html
Tick the 3 top boxes (Re Partition, auto reboot and F.Reset time)
PIT -> PIT
CODE -> PDA
MODEM -> PHONE
CSC -> CSC
If that doesn't work or fails, flash this, which is a XXKI3 Kernel : http://www.multiupload.com/WDOO81L5H6. After that, re-flash the recovery package (with PIT and repartitiong, but be careful )
Report back if it doesn't work, and good luck!
If that doesn't work, flash the old bootloader : http://www.multiupload.com/LQQBRQVJUD in either the PDA or Bootloader section in ODIN. If that is successful, flash the Kernel again, and then the XXKI3 recovery package I gave you.

[Q] Bricked. Need help. (sufferer brick)

hey guys, before you say this is a repost ive had a look and was unable to find someone who done the same thing as me...
i have a brand new galaxy s2,
i tried to root it, but some how i stuffed it up and the phone got stuck on the boot screen after the root, i tried to reinstall the kernel but without being able to get into the phone i didnt know which kernel i needed, i DONT have clockworkmod installed so i couldnt boot via that either, so i tried downloading the stock kernel for Telstra my phone provider, i tried installing that, but now instead of being stuck on the screen with the boot logo and a yellow triangle, im stuck on the screen that has a little image of a phone and a computer and an orange triangle between then with a ! in it. any assistance in this would be greatly appreciated

Hey,
first question:
You are able to get in download mode? (volume down + home button + power button)
If yes, be cool
So when u are able, flash a stock Rom with "re-partition".
This means also that you must have a stock Rom with 3 files (or sometimes more), but not the one .tar file.
If you've done this, your phone should work normal.
Then try to root again with the right "cf-root" for the android version, you flashed.
Good luck!

What I have read it only works if pit file is available, but even then re-partition should not be used. And a one-file tar generally contains the same files (phone,modem,csc) as the three-file-combo.
That's why I'm so confused.
Im honestly glad you guys know what your talking about

The .pit file is only needed by three-file-combo.
Then you can check also the repartition.
If you have one file .tar, the .pit-file is senseless and never should check repartition.
Sure in one file you have nearly the same "files" like in three, but in three-file they can be written separatly on right partition.
Mates don't get me wrong but just accept it
I'm not a dev or scripter but but flashed a lot.
Never bricked my phone but often hanging in bootloop and so on.
And like you see the way with re-partition can help.
I Never flashed a stock Rom since I had my SGS II, but like I said I'm flashing a lot and I had the SGS before, too
Hope all question are answered.
If not pls ask devs for more info.
But that's the general things I can tell you

Wrong, you can use it with both single tarball archive or with the 3 component tarball. You don't need to repartition the device unless you need to change the partition layout for whatever reason or you've damaged your partition layout.

1) Right, he damaged it so he needed it.
2) No you shouldn't use it by one file flash!
Read threads and experiences from users which have probs after flashing like this if at all possible to flash.
But however I don't wanna say anybody how to flash.
That's my and also a lot of other user experience

Pull the battery and reinsert after 30 seconds.Go into recovery mode and wipe cache, dalvik cache and data/factory reset.Power down and go into download mode and try to flash a stock rom or Lightningpro with odin. Try another usb-port than the one you used before and see if IDCOM lights up yellow and the phone is added in MESSAGE. If so flash it and reboot
Find your carriers stock firmware http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113928 Flash via ODIN (DONT TICK RE-PARTITION) & then download\flash the correct root for phone.

No flash the kernel or stockrom, not both. Place the stock rom in PDA and flash.
Only things ticked are Autoreboot and F.Reset Time. Don`t use a pit file.
Good luck
I've had similar problems before and simply reflashing a compatible kernal fixes it.

Download any UK ROM to get the phone up and running to start with and then look for your carrier firmware later.Try XWKI4 (XEU) which is a carrier free UK firmware so will be fine for your region.Download the file,put it in PDA in Odin and hit start without selecting anything else.Dont tick re-partition.

Need Stock Rom for 5.0 USA

Can't seem to find a link to download the stock rom for the US 5.0 Galaxy Player. I flashed a new rom thinking I did a CWM backup, but apparently I only thought I did.
I've searched around and can't seem to find an ODIN tar or a ZIP that I can flash for the US version other than a file hosted on Multiupload which no longer works. I didn't post in general being that this seems more Development related.
If anyone can help me out I'd appreciate it.
....................
EDIT: It was a pain to find, but I found the multiupload link, googled it, found the cached page, found the name of the file, googled the name of the file and downloaded from fileserve. I then uploaded to my server. You can download it from there if anyone needs it.
DOWNLOAD: http://timcordova.com/iamtimmah/android/YP-G70_UEKI8_MIN.rar
Found it. Posted mirror in first post.
Thank you for finding it. I would like to ask you if you have tried it already.
I don't flash custom ROMs because
until now, I didn't have a stock recovery ROM to restore in case something goes wrong or I didn't like the new ROM. And I don't think Best Buy would want to replace a device with a cracked screen if custom software is installed.
Please, let me know.
Thank you in advance.

I have tried it. I just flashed back to stock. I had to Wipe data via CWM before flashing back. On the first boot it took me to Stock recovery where I wiped data and wiped the cache. It's now working perfect.
As far as I know there seems to only be one custom rom for the US 5.0. Various kernels to try though.
So, in case I just want to restore to stock with the file you made available, I need to have a custom kernel so I can use CWM?, or I can do it from the stock recovery window?.
And the only two options to flash a kernel and a ROM I see for the SGP 5.0 are "Entropy's Daily Driver" and "Eryigit-GB-2.3.6 G70ZCKPA ROM", have you found other options?
Thank you.

Normally you only need to flash the pda, but if you want to re-partition your device then use the pit file as well.

When you turn it off just hold the volume down button before turning it on and you should get there in a couple of seconds.
after flashing i got bootloops, but i did factory reset and wipe partion cache , and it worked well
wow this rom is pre rooted

Welcome to the Dev section for the Galaxy Player. This is for development, not for installation help. You should be able to ask in General.
Flashing ROMs can be scary at first, but the Dev board is best left for software development, feedback, etc. It makes it easier for the Devs not to have to wade through a field of nonsense.
tl;dr:
Post questions in General, not in Dev. It's a common mistake, don't worry too much.
I just want it to be as if it just came in a box because I'm selling it, how do I have it stock and unrooted?

Flash the stock rom found here via Odin3 and if it is rooted, download Root Browser from play store and and delete superuser.apk in system/app and delete su binary in system/bin and after you delete these two, reboot and uninstall root browser and you should be good.

Just download this CF-root file for KK1: http://download.chainfire.eu/66/CF-Root/SGN/CF-Root-SGN_ZS_MUL_KK1-v5.0-CWM5.zip
And then put your phone into download mode and flash that CF-root file using Odin. It should boot up after. Don't worry.
As long as you don't flash a pit file and you don't tick repartition, we can still save it easily.

Better you flash a stock now,
go to sammobile.com and find a suitable stock firmware and also download Odin flash guide from the same site and read carefully and flash.
then you find Matching CF-root kernel
thanks god with unsecure kernel and odin my phone is back again,
i was so pissed tried so many methods, even downloaded from samsfirmware the stock custom rom and it only gave me one md5 file...
so, thank you very much, reading helps a lot, now i know how to brick my phone with the unuseful cfroot kk1 5.0 version... speedmod kk1 version doesnt works too.
