I went into recovery to wipe data so i can sell it and i formatted/system, formatted/cache and formatted/ data. I dont know what I was thinking when I formatted system. anyway when it boots it sometimres asks me to recover firmware via kies but it never connects to the computer to update the firmware. I do not have another copy of the firmware and cannot locate on web

well thats the way its done here...
it's always too early to give up..
now let me tell you exactly wat happened..
when u wiped out the data all the clashes or unknown cache and data were removed..
and as u flashed the stock it was back up and running...as everything was in its place now..where it needs to be..
So always keep a copy and backup of ur data and rom from now on..:highfive:
AND
NEVER GIVE UP TOO EARLY AND EASILY​....
WE ARE HERE TO HELP AS ALWAYS..

the help is much appreciated as I had been hacking at it for two days. it was not easy finding the firmware but I eventually found it and it is now backed up in a safe place with a proper name. Tablet is running like brand new. although I like my new Nexus 7 a lot more. learning that I just had to install the firmware and not a ROM made all of the difference. I was about to give up but I have never given up in the past and I'm not about to start. I was a little more patient but I was finally able to get it back up thanks to your advice.

you have to register and it will take you to an external site for download. Make sure you get a magnifying glass and get the full model number of your tablet before going to download. it is legit so go ahead and download the file for USA

Galaxy S II Messed Up

Greetings XDA,
Lets say a Galaxy S II was rooted and then deleted some files from the system and edited some others. Then that Galaxy S II started malfunctioning and be useless.
How can you remove rooting and everything get back to original [ meaning like never rooted or edited files ] ?
Don't get upset i am a noob indeed and maybe annoying but i am a lawyer and i only play with papers. I gave this colleague of me my phone because he wanted to "see" something, at least that's what he said, and i went to the meeting, then he ran to find me and told me he messed it a little bit.
Can it be restored?
Will flashing firmware unroot the device and restore files back to stock?
Thanks anyone who answers or even view the thread.
Find your original firmware in intratechs thread and flash it through odin
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
You're sparse with info, like most lawyers..
If you can boot into download mode, do so and flash a stock ROM via Odin. System files will be restored but you'll lose root. If that goes well then you can re-root
Then you should boot your colleague in testicle mode.

My colleague still tries to find info on internet on how to restore it and keeps saying how sorry he is. Why do i need to reroot? I don't want to be rooted.
Does it need to be rooted? Because he rooted it i never wanted that.
Will doing so bring up all manipulated files?
A lawyer doesn't lie, just manipulates truth and info

ONE LAST QUESTION, CAN I CHOOSE ONE OTHER MEANING OF T MOBILE EVEN THOUGH I AM COSMOTE? OR AN OFFICIAL ONE OR EVEN THE LATEST OR THIS WILL DAMAGE THE SGS?
You could download CheckFus to your PC and it will find the correct firmware and I think download it too.. A bit sparse on the details as I have never used it but heard good things about it

Don't panic
I can't seem to log on to Samfirmware at the moment, don't know why, so I can't check the available firmwares or your link.
Is there a BOKK1 firmware for Cosmote there? If so, that's the one you want.
If not, is your phone locked to Cosmote?

its not logged..cosmote is from greece, but we try to import as many things we can so my country helps them. i am from cyprus as well. its not locked to Cosmote.
Please check the picture i will reupload to tell me what is it... if its bokk1 for sure...
If you're not locked, any Cosmote firmware should be fine.
For one last check, dial *#1234# on your phone and post what it says for PDA, Phone and CSC.

hi , guys i trying to flash a something to my stock rom,i click on the wrong file, now its keeps says updating? i can boot into recovery or enything. i can hook to to odin thats all .. please help!!! no phone!! thanks
Install stock ROM through ODIN if download mode is the only mode you can boot into.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
ok i have the the stock rom , having trouble with file, not name righr? . tar is this right? thanks
Perhaps go and read the sticky guides over in general first, before you do anymore damage?
Unless you can afford to throw it away and buy a new one you should make sure you understand and double check everything before flashing files to your phone.
can someone teamveiw help? need phone going out of town. thanks

So I have a SHV-e160l note (korean) and I followed the steps listed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1924535 << there and once I got to install the kernel the phone would not do anything else. Its stuck on the galaxy note screen with the blue bar not filling the screen it like hangs on the last bit then boot loops!
Is there any way I can just revert it all back to normal? any stock kernel or thing I can flash to it? I did manage to get cwm recovery on it I just cant seem to think of anything at the moment. Thanks in advance!!

You didn't perform a backup first? That sucks! Once you get it up and running make sure you make a backup. I don't have the same model as you, but I did a quick search and found this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775015
I am ignorant and only know english so I can't translate the page. But I'm guessing there is a stock firmware on there somewhere. You'll have to do some searching and find it. Then install it to your phone. I hope that helps!
Stock firmware for Samsung devices can be found on the official site.

The server that hosts the file is probably powered by a hamster running in a wheel.
MAJOR UPDATE:
I have no idea what I did, I tried updating with like 3 firmwares.. After awhile I entered recovery, got desperate, and hit a random option. Well it ended up reverting my phone back to gingerbread and now I am a happy camper to have my phone back!!!

I think you have the stock recovery installed that's why there is no back & restore.
Flash a new firmware in download mode.(Google on how to do)

There are much ROMs for your device so you can choose which one you like best.
I prefer to Flash one by one and not to listen to user Reviews because then you can test yourself!

Frist: I thank u from the bottom of my heart :good: SasaKovacic :good:
Seconde: ur intructions were very clear i did exactly what u told me to do
Third: for everybody else if ur Samsung is stuck on boot screen and u have access to DownLoad Mode
well just download a rom (for ex: I9000XXJVQ.zip) unzip it (u'll get tar or tar.md5 files) now open odin
in PDA put the CODE file, in Phone put MODEM file, in CSC put CSC file and the pit must be 512 (u'll find it with odin or with the rom its a .pit file)
and u hit start and dont unplug the phone till it reboots. and that would be the solution to UNStuck ur Galaxy S GT I9000.
Is that right SasaKovacic
