Galaxy s2 issue help please :( - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all recently my girlfriend attempted to root my galaxy s2 however when shes done it there seems to be a issue. The phone was working fine on jelly bean v4.2.1 i believe till she done tried to root it and now when i attempt to turn/boot the phone up it gives me a static yellow triangle and pops up with ICS with a strange icon and then stops from there . I was wondering if any of you guys could assist me with fixing the phone and provide me with the correct files in order to fix it without damaging it any more. Thanks so much for the assistance in advance i really appreciate any help you guys can provide. Kind regards Vibesrr

How did she try to root phone

I just finished rooting mine the other day. The info you need is in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002555. The only thing I had to do differently was get an updated version of superuser.
This has been asked a few million times. I posted a link the other day that was the best explained, easiest way that I used.

Try Blackstar x rom...

Please Help!! My Phone wont boot!

Okay, so I have a Galaxy s2 i777 (At&t) version as my phone. The other day I rooted it and then I didn't like it was because my youtube and my camera wouldn't work so I tried to factory reset it right on the phone menu in the back up and reset section but all it did was turn off my phone and it wouldn't boot. I brung it to At&t customer service and they said that it usually voids the warranty but they'll give me a chance so they did a whole factory reset on my phone. Okay, so i learned my lesson that i got a bad Siyah kernal and i retried to root it yesterday and it worked perfectly. I also installed ShoStock 3 for the jelly bean rom and i got it. I got this rom on youtube, and he said that if I added this Siyah kernal, it was more smooth and better so i added the zipped siyah kernal into my internal sd from my computer. So I wanted to go into Clockwork Mod recovery so on the app Rom Manager, I pressed reboot in clockwork recovery mode and my phone turned off. Usually it would go into Clockwork mod recovery mode but this time it just froze on the Samsung Logo and it wouldn't turn on. I tried to take out the battery and it wont go into recovery mode. I will go into download mode though. Please Help if you know this situation. thanks.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 rooted but cant reboot!

hey guys, this is my first time posting. just recently i used galaxys2root to try and root my s2 i9100. unfortunately, when it was the last step and it told me to reboot i got stuck on the black screen with a yellow triangle. i am aware there were many who have had similar cases to me but as i am in a state of panic right now i cant focus on the threads and reading them all. so please, if someone could guide me through. also, i heard doing a factory reset works and have tried it, but nothing happened and now i dont have any data on my phone either. PLEASE HELP!!!
Leave. You used a horrible site and this isn't even for our phone. This forum is clearly for the GS4

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 4.4.2 KitKat Root

Hey everyone,
So I have been trying to root my newly updated Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337 AT&T) for a couple of days now and still no success.
I've tried MotoChopper, a series of different CF-AutoRoot files and neither have given any luck. Odin stops right after SuperUser.apk is pushed over and gives the "Threads failed: 1 Success: 0" message.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in Advance.

THERE IS A THREAD FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and are you running stock or custom and look it up on the galaxy s4 troubleshooting page before you post here
Search it up i dont want to help in this thread but i will help you or someone else will when its in the right thread
I have the same problem, I am attaching here my cell data.
please help me.
Same problem
I have a galaxy s4 att 4.4 and have been wondering the same thing. Seems like no one has found and way to root the phone yet. As for the guy who flipped out in the post above. Give it a break man. This website is made so a bunch of developers can come together and help each other out and fix problems. There should be no putting down just because it was put on the wrong thread or whatever. It's the people like you that ruin the fun in hacking for all of us. If there's already a thread then just tell the owner of this one or any one nicely and point them in the right direction with a Link or something. No need to be mean.

Hope this helps.
Thanks for the Link but I can't find a thread that specifically talked about rooting the galaxy s4 4.2.2. I wish they would find a way soon
Where is the link?

How about a link to the exact thread then, bud? Prove that there is one. If you dont, there is no thread.
Can anyone direct me to the right place? the link above doesn't seem to show me where to go.

Was this done on a phone with a Canadian wireless service? I don't know how similar the phones are between the US and Canada (pardon my naivete), but if so, how risky is this root method for a US phone?
Thanks.

I just registered to say I am in the same situation. I just got a Galaxy S4 i337 with 4.4.2 from AT&T and I am already desperate to get it rooted. My 64GB Micro SD card is going to be almost useless until I do thanks to Google royally screwing over my ability to use external storage, and I'm already almost out of internal storage. I am hesitant to try something for i337M if it's untested with i337, and I'm not about to risk bricking my brand new phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I don't need any of the info., but I'm searching for a friend who is not tech. inclined. Still think you deserve a "Thanks" for that because Turtleman was not helping at all. After all, that's what these site for. One hand washes the other.
