black screen after kies flash

i've just tried upgrading to the new froyo build through kies, but on completion my phone will not turn back on. All i am getting is black screen with random vibrations. I can get into download mode though. Anyone have a link to jf3 or jm1 original firmwares so i can flash back via odin then try kies again?

Go to recovery (volup+home+power) wipe data/factory reset and it will work, happened to me also.

man I cant stress this enough.. THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!!!!! After this happened to me I was ready to 1) give up, 2) try to reflash with odin 3) try something even more crazy..
and you saved my but ! I did as you said and it just started up perfectly ! Now I have froyo, all my data, and dont have to reflash or anything !
I just have one question if I may please !
I had a lagfix installed and I didnt disable it before I did the flashing, so do I still have it or what ? Because I didnt loose any data but the applications that I had instaled are not showed anymore.. which bugs me because Ill have to clean up and redo everything.. but at least Ill have a clean phone )
thanks again man !

You need to dis able lag fix before updating or anything

of course I know that now , the issue with my situation would be that after I got it working (did what BaalBehrit said) the phone would boot up normaly, but all apps including of course One-click Lag fix were still there but didn't show as installed apps, nor had they any icons for that matter. Therefore disabling it before second flash was virtualy imposible.
What I did was simple. I backed all my data to my computer and then just formated both SD cards - that probably took care of the lagfix, after that, I did the flash again and everything run smoothly.
but you're right I have to remember for next time

Rootet SG2 stuck on Bootscreen after factoryreset with CWM. (Update)

Hey
After I read that the battery life could be improved by factoryreset-ing the sg2, i resetted it in recoverymode.
And now it stuck on the boot Logo, displaying the big animated endless looping
S
Samsung
GALAXY S II​
.. and then i tryd to flash a new firmware, litening rom and I thought it would fix the problem, but no, it didnt.
I use the kernel from chainfire with Clockworkmod v3.0.0.5 + the other good stuff.
what can I do ???
edit: I try to restore my backup now

Ok cool.. the restore process works pretty good.
Everything is like it was tonight, when i backed it up.
Ok, now is the question, why does the factory reset does not work here ?

I'm pretty sure they are taking about resetting it from within the phone, ie settings, private, factory reset
Edit: It's working as intended, you wiped your data partition. Needless to say this renders the phone pretty much useless

ok, i made a factory reset within the phone now
lets see..

Again.. same effect.. used the holy wcm to resque me.
maybe its because of the frozen sysapps that i instandly froze with TB after installing litening rom..
need to reinstall it again now.
Damn, i would like to have a real clean startup again.. and try if anything changes with the battery power.
My theory is, that many of us have a different hardware.. like battery type or a different screen or something..
Its like the 5 different firmwares for the mmols camera..
ok, i will now flash litening rom and configure it...
ps: don't forget to back it up yo!

how did u manage to solve it ..? i am facing with the same problem also ...thnaks!

Did you try to flash original kernel and then factory reset?

Had the same problem and downloaded from xda the original ke7 and installed it
problem solved. Then did a rooting again. Hope this helps.

It seems, that wiping the dalvic cache will produce that effect.
Because in the dalvic cache, there are many informations saved how your system is configurated..
For example your google account is also saved there within the google framework and the account and sync settings in the dalvic cache.
But not only there, there are some other places to.
Maybe i will make a tutorial in a while, how to change or delete the google account, because you can't delete or change it the normal way.

i solved this with wip data/cache

Big problem with my sgs2 :(

Everything have worked fine until now..
Latest things i did was update firmware on the camera, then rebooted and the camera worked just as fine as before.
I had two framework-res.apk's that i have moded from my own frameworkfile in kitchen, i did try both out and they worked just fine before, i did rename them and hade both in my bluetooth folder on the phone.. one circle and one guage battery framework modfile.
I wanted to go back to the guagefile, so i copied the file (it was renamed framework-res..guage.apk) and pasted it in the framework folder on the phone, renamed it and now it seamed i had two framework-res.apk files... thought one would overwrite the other, but no it didnt. So i checked what file was oldest and deleted that and rebooted, now i cant get by the samsung logo have tried everything and it just wont go any further
Could anyone help me with what to do pleeeeeease ? i can flash with odin, and i have tried flasing kernels unsecure and original with no effect, please help me !! i really hope this phone isnt bricked now

Put phone in download mode or cwm and flash a rom. Use a stock rom made for your phone.

I would prefer not to flash a new rom as there is many things on my phone that i dont want to get wiped away. I have some movies in the camera folder that i havent made a backup for yet and i just cant live without them, if they are lost i could just as well throw away the phone

root it , then buy titanium backup from the market and backup what you want , then flash rom , then install titanium again , then reinstall back up , easy peasy
your phone will have what you want on it still and hopefully be working again
have a good day
flashing a rom shouldnt clear your mass memory mate , your videos etc should remain unless you use the android restore function in settings or format it via pc

sorry didnt read post properley my fault :-(
still flashing a new rom wont delete your mass memory files
it never has on mine , as the other user said , wipe , wipe cache , wipe dalvik cache , if this still doesnt boot then flash a rom of your choice it may bring it back fine and your mass memory should be intact
leomar2.4 / 2.5 / 2.6 / doesnt touch the mass memory files anyways so your videos would be fine and you would have one of the best roms going

No worries
As it is now i can only get into odin mode.. down volume,home button,power button and get connected to the odin flashprogram, that is the only thing i can do
So even if my pictures and movies are on phones internal sd-card it wont be deleted ?? i just need to know this before i do something major like new rom.
I have a external sd-card to and i guess that wont be effected, but i dont know about the internal sd-card
Can i flash a rom without do those wipe cleaning stuff i read about that seams to be important to do before flashing a new rom ?
If it is just the framework-res.apk file thats wrong, cant i flash a new framework file with odin ? if for some reason there was something wrong there.

What rom do you use now? Wiping data wipes everything, wiping cache and dalvik cache shouldn't delete any personal data.

Im running original stock rom with unsecure kernel..

Just flash a stock ROM with Odin.
It won't remove anything, it'll all br there.

Wipe will only wipe /data and /system which will be user and system apps and data.
You wont lose anything on the internal sd card and ext sd card.
You can always flash the same rom as you had before over the top which should fix the framework.

just flash non wipe rom from intratech topic, it will fix it for you
or boot into recovery, do backup there, flash new rom and then restore advenced only data in recovery
and as was mentioned before, reset/wipe/new rom through odin will not touch pictures/movies/music on internal sd card only apps and app setup with data will be erased

Thanks everyone for your help, you are really a great bunch of people here, so fast and very helpful, thank you all so much !
I must admit that my heart stopped for a moment when i couldnt get it restarted, forgot to breath but i did as you said only thing is i didnt flash a stock rom, i flashed a very nice rom called lightning and im much more happy with my phone now then i was before... in the end it was a good thing maybe that this happen to me today, otherwise i would probably never have gone from stock rom, now im glad i did it's faster and everything is better, and i could just now flash a new bootanimation that i couldnt do before, i tried the cool pc bios boot and im very happy with that, overall it feels like a new improved phone
Thanks everyone !!! Have a great eavning !

All you had to do was boot in recovery, and adb a stock frameworkres.apk to the phone and it wouldve booted fine! Or made a flshable zip that copies the stock frameworkres.apk and flash that through clockwork!
...and on the 8th day he created the SGS II!

If you have a good CWR backup restoring everything should bring you back know to working condition.
If not I would consider doing a brand new, clean install of the rom and link2sd. You could restore apps and data with Titanium Backup.

Task 29 shouldn't be necessary. When you say it disappeared do you mean the i on was no longer there? Did it show up on the all programs list? Did you look for it with a file explorer in /system/apps? Or maybe with ROM Toolbox?

Everybody lies, but it doesn’t matter since no one listens.

So lemme give more details then, i did a factory reset, it was there wen the phone booted again. But after another reboot it all disappeared, nothing there in the app list or anywhere else, after another factory reset teh same happened, then i flashed the rom again. It was there n after a reboot it again disappeared, i rly dont get why this was happening, anyhow, i made an icon to the store after another reset n it stayed there n now it works but some basic apps r missin. Also it keeps having random reboots.

I don't know link2sd - never used it. My limited understanding is that it allows apps to be moved to an ext3 or ext4 partition on the card, yes?
If you do a factory reset all connections to the sd-ext partition are lost. Technically, the apps and data are still there but nothing in your device knows it. There may be a way to place link2sd back in a new ROM to reconnect with the previously installed apps but I am not certain of this.
Does your ROM have a DataOnEXT install option? It may be a simpler and cleaner way to move the data partition to the sd-ext partition instead of link2sd.
The Play Store should be part of the ROM you installed. I have no idea how it can disappear if not removed.
Like I said, if the ROM has a DataOnEXT option I would look into that choice but in any event you will most likely end up doing a clean install if you cannot successfully relink your sd-ext partition.

You need a fresh install, repartition your recovery, factory reset, then install the rom.
Coming to your earlier problem, i used to use link2sd but it gave me problems, the NexusHD2 ICS rom already has an a2sd script. I think the problem is that link2sd interferes with the a2sd script in place. My suggestion, DONT INSTALL LINK2SD! It gave me loads of problems, not the one you stated but still, apps wont go the ext partition and all that....
So install the rom again, ( remeber to clear cache too ) and use it without link2sd

ok, thanks, ima repartizion it, clear the cache n do a fresh install then. Thanks for the help guys

(Q) The g360h after root is too slow

Hi
After i did root for my phone (g360h) it becomes too slow with alot of delays
i've tried to remove the root and re-flashed the stock ROM (with wipe everything) many times but that doesnt work with me and it still slowest than worst phone ever
Any Suggest !

Your phone's slow speed has nothing to do with root. It's maybe because of a particular app, such as Facebook, which is a super memeory hog for a phone with 952MB RAM.
Try "L speed" app to optimize the phone. As you already tried wiping and installing stock ROM.

The problem is after the hard reset (wipe everything) and on the first boot it runs super slow without installing any program
and i've tried alot of stock ROMs but that does not work !!

my phone become too slow after installing Xposed and some modules
i tried to installed multiple stock roms and from first boot its too slow(like keyboard, black screeen in apps , etc)
i do this and my phone is now good with root and few apps so you can try! :
1. download Triangle Away paid version from internet and reset the flash counter
2. go to twrp and make (data,system,dalvik and cache wipe) make sure that second option in setting(use rm instead of formating) is not checked and wait about 15-20 minutes untill wipe finished
3. flash latest frimware for your country or any one (G360HDDUAPA3 the latest!)
4. tell me what happened with you because i do all this and my phone now best!

firstly i forgot to mention that i used Xposed so maybe that makes may phone too slow
2- i tried the first and the second steps (wipe data, system, dalvik and cache) and i flashed new rom but the strange thing is that kernel (always) just wipe cache and dalvik cache but did not wipe data and system
so i've tried CWM recovery and i did all the steps above!
rightnow my phone is better than before but it still not as before installing Xposed
and there is some lag
anyway thanks alot (Shukran Jazeelan)
i am waiting for couple of days to see what will happened
and i hope you will get ur freedom
