Wipe data/factory reset is the correct next step. Select that line using the vol buttons, then press the power button. You will see text appear that confirms the wipe was completed. Then your phone should boot.
Next go to the second guide that BROKKANIC posted for you (first link in my signature) and follow the steps. Feel free to ask if there is something you don't understand.

I would personally suggest against that. Just use odin to flash a gb custom kernel. Then flash one of the better ICS firmwares we have available in the development forum.

That's your call, of course. I'd recommend against it. If you really want stock ICS I'd at least install stock plus root, and install a custom and known safe kernel. See this thread in development.
Or, install the custom firmware of your choice from the forums here. For a popular stock ICS rom, there is Semi by AJ Newkirk.

Hi guys.
I have a question.
Im running stock cf-root, android 2.3.3.
I want to install a custom rom.
Is cyanogenmod compatible?
And is it flashable trough CWM?
Also, if I wipe data before I install a custom ROM, will I lose my backup-data also?
In other words: do I need to save it to my laptop?
Im sure this all have been asked before. But I cant seem to find a proper answer to it.
Thanks in advance.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Also; can I update straight from 2.3.3 to 2.3.5 if the rom is that version?.

Full, detailed instructions are exactly where you might expect to find them, in the [NIGHTLY][ROM][GWK74] CyanogenMod 7 (w/ Gingerbread 2.3.7) for Galaxy SII Q&A thread.
i think i just bricked my phone
i can't access recovery and only a blank battery icon with a wheel shows
I followed posted above.
The way with CWM.
Downloaded, wiped everything and installed Cyanogenmod.
_Edit: Android recovery is possible. CWM, just isn't .. What do i do now ?
Did you flash it twice in a row without a reboot, if the first flash was quick, as per the instructions?

It rebooted itself before I could do anything.
I flashed only once.
Then I suggest you re-read the instructions fully and make sure you're doing it right. Steps 1-7, to the letter.

I can't get my phone to boot into CWM Recovery.
Only Android recovery is available, also the phone won't boot normally.
Only the samsung galaxy sII logo is visible at boot.
That's where it hangs..
So did you forget step 2 (and therefore step 3 too)? Can you get your phone into download mode? (volume down+home+power, from off).
I think so yes. (very VERY foolish)
Yes, i can get it in download-mode.
In that case, you can probably perform step 2, though not sure how useful step 3 would be at this stage, and continue.

nope. i can't..
After some time i am now able to run Manual recovery.
Installing from manual recovery gives me a signing error, so that's useless.
Question is now: How can i get my phone to stock including stock bootloader and stock kernel?
I will try to root and flash ROM from that point.

Why can't you? What error do you get trying to perform step 2? I feel like you're not really doing the things you say you are.
Anyway, everything you need for a stock ROM is in Intratech's thread, [ROM+Guide]Official i9100 Firmwares KG, KH1/2/3/4, KI1/2/3/4/8, KJ1/2 Download.

Are you referring to the point @ root?
Because it was rooted before i started.
i messed up @ point 6, not me but my phone.
It rebooted itself after first time flashing.
Now it won't boot properly. it hangs either at the bootlogo from samsung or it just gives me a picture of a blank battery with a wheel in it.
CWM recovery is inaccesible. so i can't just continue the steps.
All i can do now is; get it in download-mode (Vol DWN + Home + PWR) or manual engagement mode. (Vol UP + Home + PWR)
Are we reading different things here? You said you had some "manual recovery", whatever that is, and there's two parts to step 2.

dude, what am i ignoring?
I'm going mental here.
Let's break it down shall we?
What happens when you put the phone into download mode and install ClockworkMod Recovery, as the instructions say, from step 2? Can you then get into recovery mode, and if not, what exactly happens?
First off, my apologies if this is in the wrong forum. Mods, you may move this thread if need be. I was just shown this website about two weeks ago by a friend and have only been a lurker since. So I apologize if my first post is one needing assistance.
First off, I am not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to doing all this reboot,recovery, root,etc. But I can usually figure stuff out. I have researched how to do all this stuff over the last to weeks learning how to do all this. Let it be known that I was already rooted with siyah 3.4.2? kernel with superuser, CWM, and had ROM Manager downloaded. Last night I had finally decided to try and download a custom rom (AOKP), and I went through ROM Manager to try and reboot into recovery mode..the phone went dead. I have not been able to turn the phone on since last night. I have tried taking the battery out, trying to hold down volume buttons/power button to get into download mode, etc..But nothing is happening. When I power on, I can see the screen where it says "Samsung Galaxy SII" w/ the triangle, but then the screen goes black and nothing. In a dark room, you can see that the screen looks like it's trying to fire by flickering, but again...nothing. Sorry if this has been alot of reading, but I just want to be as thorough as I can. If anybody can tell me what went wrong, and how it might be fixed, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Remove the battery and replace it. hold the up/down volume and power button. The screen should light up. Continue to hold them until the phone goes into recovery mode. The phone should turn on and off a couple times before it enters recovery. Then wipe the data and caches. Hopefully at the point the phone will work. If it wont work you could always try to buy a download jig. They are only a couple dollars and can easily be found with a search.

@BigCohiba,
You need to get into download mode. You should be able to do that without using a jig. With the phone off, but with the battery still in the phone, hold down vol- and vol+ (but not power) while you plug in the usb cable.
The following instructions given by fakhri should also work:

After that, flashing siyah kernel alone may be enough to allow the phone to boot, but you may have trouble finding a Siyah in Odin flashable tar format.
...or, flash straight stock UCKH7, or flash stock plus root UCKH7. You can find download links for those in one or the other of the guides linked in my signature.
Please let us know your success or problems as you proceed.

So I was flashing a new rom in CWM on my AT&T Atrix 4G, unlocked bootloader, running CM10. I was going to flash CM9 because there was a bug in CM10, and when I went to wipe my dalvik cache, I hit the wrong menu option somehow and wiped an internal partition that must've been the one that CWM was on, so now I get the screen shown in the picture. Any ideas guys? Thx.

Found the drivers and successfully flashed RomRacers Recovery through Fastboot! Thanks guys! She lives!:victory:
It's odd though, I just flashed cm10 and I'm having frequent random reboots and the screen calibration is off.
It looks like the trick here is a pds partition fix. I'll give it a try tomorrow and report back.

It looks like the trick here is a pds partition fix. I'll give it a try tomorrow and report back.

No, I haven't. Care to elaborate?
It means posting 5 posts one after the other instead of simply editing the first one is frowned upon.

I am a RAZR user and have it all rooted and running great so I am fairly competent but a co-worker has the ATRIX and it was in a bootloop. I offered to help and find myself practically where you were except I have no OS on the phone and can not seem to get recovery on it.
Can you share where you found the right drivers, recovery, and a good OS? Basically I need someone to hold my hand through this because I do not have the time to keep looking for the right things since I have a kitchen remodel underway and a wife who....need I say more?
Thanks
can't recover from this

So I was flashing a new rom in CWM on my AT&T Atrix 4G, unlocked bootloader, running CM10. I was going to flash CM9 because there was a bug in CM10, and when I went to wipe my dalvik cache, I hit the wrong menu option somehow and wiped an internal partition that must've been the one that CWM was on, so now I get the screen shown in the picture. Any ideas guys? Thx.

I got exactly what you did. But even in fastboot mode I can't get out of this screen after flashing the recovery. Actually it does not get into CWM or another recovery but each time I Vol and Power Down it gets into this screen again. Looks like flashing does not help at all. If I select Boot Android it powers up in the last ROM I flashed before all this. The problem is that I cannot operate any soft button at the bottom: the screen looks not calibrated so I need to push on areas lower than actual buttons are, and I don't know how to get out of that either. No Back, neither Home or Search buttons are unreachable.
What can I do? How to reflash this phone?
If you activate the RSD mode you can flash your stock rom with RSDLite. There is a superthread with the original firmwares, you will lose root and unlock but it will restore completely your device
Hello, sorry for being dumb, but this is the case.
I rooted my phone, everyone was ok, but I wanted to install a custom kernel, so I wanted to install a custom recovery, so I dowloaded ROM manager from the market and installed it, I selected to install a custom recovery, everything went ok, so I pressed to boot into recovery, and that's where it gets stuck on the S2 logo, won't go past that.
What are my options?
Back to stock via Odin - clean slate & you can then 'start again' (re-root, reinstall custom rom/kernel whatever).
Don't use Rom Manager with the SGS2 at all; it's notorious for doing what you've just experienced (you don't need it - you have CWRecovery for all your flashing/backup/restore/etc needs).
P.S - Bricked phones are exactly that; bricked. They don't boot. If a phone boots, it ain't bricked. There's no such thing as 'hard' or 'soft' bricked. It either tis or t'aint.
Thanks for replying, and good to hear that there is some hope, can you refer to any guide/tutorial of what to do exactly, I don't want to stumble upon something wrong and make things worse.

Power off. Press Volume Down + Power and it'll boot into download mode (let's hope so), and flash back to Stock 4.1.2
Then flash Siyah Kernel. It includes SuperUser and CWM.

Hey everyone and thanks for your help.
I deleted what seemed to me to be some worthless apps from my galaxy pocket neo using an app and now my phone is stuck on the boot screen. I have tried factory resetting my phone and after rebooting my phone will go through the original setup process, but ultimately after going through all the menus my phone becomes unresponsive. I am thinking that I need a new os.
I have seen the other help thread "stuck on boot logo" and I tried to understand the directions giving there, but have so far been unable to resolve anything. If I could get some clear instructions as to what might fix my phone I'd appreciate it.

Go here
Flash Samsung stock ROM for your phone and baseband using Odin. It should be back to normal. It will be back to unrooted factory state.
Alternatively, if your cwm is still working, just flash a ROM zip after wiping data, cache, advamced->dalvik cache.
Do mounts and storage-> mount system->format system in CWM before flashing ROM if above 2 methods do not work (though I'm very sure one of them would work)
---------- Post added at 12:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 AM ----------
Make sure that you flash the ROM of Samsung s5312 and not the one mentioned in the Odin guide. Search for it .
I can't seem to find a site that will let me download the stock rom. All of the rom sites bring me to uploaded.net and I dead end there... Is there something I am missing on that website?
Thanks!
problem app system
May be you remove any important system app so i think you should install stockrom by odin or install custom rom ) there are many nice rom such as: cm11 , cm10.1
Same Problem

Ah i see. My apologies, I managed to fix it but it took a while. I had to download the official firmware from sammobile and flash it through odin. When i did that again i was stuck on the boot animation, but what i did was to go into my recovery and wipe cache, dalvik and also user data just to make certain and voila! phone works fine now.
I'm so sorry about your situation man, maybe you can try what i tried if you still got your phone. Its good as a spare!
Well done Sir!
I already spent a full work day on the sucker >.> I am just bitter and can't be bothered. Haha. Glad you were successful though!
