Device not booting, screen stays black - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
after rooting my S2, it is not booting anymore. After the i9100 logo the screen stays black. I did everythin from the description.here with Samsung Quick Root: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...t-app-updated-13-09-12-samsung-quick-t1125414
Do I have the wrong Kernel? If yes, were can I get the correct Kernel?
See Attachement.
[Edit]
I found following working kernel: Siyah-s2-v6.0b4-CWM.zip

you should have rooted using the odin method as it the most safest and noob-proof method .. try booting it in the recovery mode /download mode .. if you boot into recovery mode , wipe data and caceh and try rebooting system .. if not booting in the recovery mode , try download mode and if you do boot into it , flash stock via odin .. .. also , before trying these steps , try holding volume up and power button .. you might as well boot up ..
imp .. recovery : volume up + home + power button
download mode : vlume down +home + power button
all the best and hope i helped .. visit http://www.gokhanmoral.com/?cat=5 for more info on rooting ... download the .tar file attach .. select it in pda and flash via odin while phone i download mode .. hope i helped and all the best .. Happy Flashing

[Q] 5830I cant get into download mode. pls help

HI there,
I can start my 5830I normally and everything works fine.
I can get to the recovery mode, by vol.+/home/pwr, and everything there works fine
When I vol.+/vol.-/pwr, I got a black screen (the backlight LED is on), and no download mode.
The vol.+/vol.-/pwr used to work and I had flahsed my 5830I a few times. Then I used CWM 5.0.2.6 to bakcup my phone and did one restore. Then I cant get into download mode anymore.
I could connect my phone to computer using SDK. I can use adb reboot recovery to reboot the phone to recovery
But if I use adb reboot bootloader, the phone just boots normally.
I fear that my bootloader has somehow damaged, either by CWM or by my last flash (using odin 1.83, I flashed also the bootloader file and with re-partation checked).
I wonder how I can fix this problem and get into the download mode. I can now use my phone normally and the current system seems to be quite fine. But I still want to have the chance to flash.
Thanks a lot!
Reboot bootloader does nothing because the phone doesn't have an accessible bootloader

Try Power+Home in case you flashed S5830's CWM recovery.

I didn't flash any recovery. I just restored my own back up using CWM.
"CWM 5.0.2.6 "
Maybe you used wrong CWM not for yours S5830i but for S5830 D/B etc
Use only this CWM ClockWorkRec5830i.zip

That's exactly what I used.
Download Mode: Volume Up, Volume Down, Power.
For galaxy ace 5830i
Try this method
Try this:
1.
Download multiloaderx_v565
2.
Start your phone normally...
3.
When phone started:
Hold down Home key and in multiloader press "port search".
its a forced download mode

I didn't get it. You are not able to boot into recovery? If so then you haven't flashed CMW properly. Try again and get into recovery by volume up + center button + power button.

Your problem sounds similar to this one. I assume when you say 'blank screen' that the screen is powered on?
Power off the phone, hold down VolUp + VolDown + Power for 4 to 5 seconds. Then release ALL AT THE SAME TIME. Now press Volume Up. Now hopefully you will be in download mode even if you can't see that you are. If it doesn't work try it again a couple of times. The reason that you have to press Volume Up is that a warning screen is actually displayed before the phone lets you into download mode.
The phone will give you no other indication that its in download mode and won't 'recognise Odin' when not in download mode. Make sure you have Samsung USB drivers (comes with Samsung Kies) installed on your PC.
Oh yeah and by the way the thread I've linked to suggests you have to reflash the bootloader to fix the 'blank screen' problem.

SGA S5830i OS corrupt, wish to install stock rom from another ace. But How ?

Hi,
I played inside the system files of my rooted SGA S5830i and accidently deleted a log file, I am sorry I don't remember the name. Now, I see an error message always when I open contacts - android.process.acore has stopped working. Same is the case when I open messages - and it takes me to HomeScreen. I tried downloading a lot of Gingerbread OS version .tar files for my model and nothin works through ODIN as well as through Recovery Mode.
Odin says 'connecting' but no luck. Tried different versions of ODIN, removed SD, removed SIM, removed battery and tried aagin and such, but nothing woked yet.Even tried different USB hubs.
Recovery mode just abort the installation of OS Zip file
So I am planning to root another SGA S5830i of my friend, take a back-up of OS and install it to my SGA. I don't think it will work as it never worked through any of the above mentioned methods to flash a ROM.
Can somebody help me in this matter, please ?
First of all, you have to read the RULES!
There is a separate section for questions and trouble shooting. POST IN CORRECT SECTION!
Install proper Samsung drivers. Make sure that odin detects port of the device.
Odin v. 3.07 supports firmware files without splitting. Other versions needs splitted firmware. Use splitfus to do that.
Flash custom roms via clockworkmod recovery.
Sent from my GT-S5830i using xda app-developers app
I tried with all versions of ODIN, but of no use.
Now when I tried through Recovery Mode, the error message says ' Thereis no enough space on the device '
Please Help !
If you want install ROM for your ace"i" you must buut your phone into download mode(not recovery mode/CWM) than install ROM with ODIN .
May I know the difference b/w Recovery Mode & Download Mode ?
What I understans from Recovery Mode is to Press Volume Up button + Home Screen button + Powen On button simultaneously.
Is that different from Download Mode ?
Please explain

hi....
you had overwritten ur default recovery image and failed to install CWM image!! thats what happened..
use odin 3. ^ vesion and search for your phone's original recovery image if available..
else search for CWM compatible with your phone and install it buy entering the download mode on ur phone by pressing vol down + menu buttons..

Another way exist :-s ?
Oops..
Ive not noticed it.
I think you are in a deep trouble now ..
Your phone is hardbricked.
Hardbricks refers to the phone as
totally jammed, it doesn't show
anything, can't access the download
mode screen. The only solution for
this is by called JTAG flashing, which
is forcing to install the firmware
back to the phone. The process is not
too easy, this includes disassembling
the phone, some soldering required
and flashing by means of using a
flashing device tool.
I cant post a link now. The above text copied from a blog!!
Final hope:tried a battery pull ?
