THIS GUIDE IS INTENDED ONLY FOR THE 16GB GALAXY S2 I9100 (but a similar procedure can be applied to some other samsung devices)
BIG THANKS TO USER HG42, ALL CREDITS GO TO HIM AS HE IS THE ONE THAT MADE THIS POSSIBLE. THE ORIGINAL GALAXY NOTE THREAD IS HERE
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THIS WILL WORK, IT DID FOR ME AND A FEW OTHERS BUT YOUR PROBLEM COULD BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE
AFTER FLASHING THE PIT FILE, YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATLY FLASH A SAMSUNG ROM OR A KERNEL VIA ODIN, ESPECIALLY IF YOU STILL HAVE THE LQ5 KERNEL INSTALLED, IN ANY CASE, DON'T TRY TO WIPE DATA AFTER THE PIT FILE FLASH, FLASH A ROM OR A KERNEL BEFORE DOING ANY WIPE
As you must know by now, some users experienced hard bricks after flashing the leaked LQ5 firmware and doing a factory reset or a data wipe, some others, like me, can still access Odin or recovery but no matter what we try we can't get the phone to actually fully boot.
SYMPTOMS:
-You can go into download mode and maybe in recovery
-When you try to wipe data in recovery the phone gets stuck and reboots eventually
-Flashing a firmware through odin doesn't do any good even when the flash was a success
-During the Flash through odin it may get stuck at data.img or fastoryfs depending on the firmware you're trying to flash
If your symptoms aren't the same as those, i would advise not trying this procedure
THE REASON FOR THE "BRICK"
It seems that during the factory reset or data wipe you made after flashing LQ5, the data partition got badly corrupted somehow, and because of that, neither CWM nor Odin can write or format this faulty data partition. This is why you can't boot into any rom.
What you need to do if you're in the same situtation i was into (make sure of it) is to flash a modified pit file which is gonna create a new data partition on your internal sdcard, leaving the faulty one aside, and thus getting a brand new data partition which is gonna make your phone work again, but at the cost of having a smaller internal SD. Other than that, your phone should work exactly as it did.
WARNING / BACKUP
By doing so, you're also repartitionning the internal sdcard, which will result in the loss of everything you have on it, to backup the content of your internal sdcard, you must follow the steps described in THIS THREAD which is the thread started by the man that found the solution to this problem. The thread is a galaxy note thread, but the backup procedure is the same.
Once you have backed up what you wanted to backup, and made sure you read everything carefully, you can proceed to the flashing of the modified pit file.
AFTER FLASHING THE PIT FILE, YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATLY FLASH A SAMSUNG ROM OR A KERNEL VIA ODIN, ESPECIALLY IF YOU STILL HAVE THE LQ5 KERNEL INSTALLED, IN ANY CASE, DON'T TRY TO WIPE DATA AFTER THE PIT FILE FLASH, FLASH A ROM OR A KERNEL BEFORE DOING ANY WIPE
The zip containing the modified PIT files can be found in THIS THREAD at the end of the first post.
STEP BY STEP
-Put your phone into Download Mode
-Flash the modified pit using odin, NOTHING ELSE
-After pit flash, the phone will try to reboot, and will get stuck. Remove the battery
-Go into Download Mode.
-Flash a clean, unmodified, samsung firmware (like KI4) WITHOUT PUTTING ANY PIT FILE
-Reboot in stock recovery, do a factory reset
-Reboot phone
-Format internal sdcard
-You should be good to go
ALTERNATIVE WAY (NOT RECOMMENDED)
-Put your phone into Download Mode
-Flash the modified pit using odin, NOTHING ELSE
-After pit flash, the phone will try to reboot, and will get stuck. Remove the battery
-Go into Download Mode.
-Flash a custom kernel with Odin.
-Then Boot into recovery and install a rom from a zip which must be on your external SD
I hope this works for you as well as it did for me. Good luck, and congratulations to hg42 for finding a way to get our devices working again
edit: OP entirely changed his post since my response, rendering it incorrect.
Worked for me too
Tried everything was beginning to give up tried this and my phone works again thanks alot
Glad it worked for you mate.
Next time we'll think twice before flashing a leaked firmware.

Hi, the same thing happend with me. Now I can enter in recovery but I cant wipe data.
I´m thinking of try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457458
To do that should I flash first the original Pit file???????
Thanks

Heeyyy!!!! Bro, i found an alternative for us. It worked for me so with you will work to!!!
Im from argentina and my english is not good. So, sorry for that.
Ok, do this:
1/ Download resurrection remix v2.5.3
2/ Flash siyha v3.3.2
3/ Enter to the recovery
4/ Go to "dual-boot options
5/ Select "install zip to second rom from external sd. Automatically siyah will create a second data partition.
6/ select the rom from the external sd and install it. Then restart and enter in recovery again
7/ go to "dual boot options / wipe second rom dalvik-cache.
8/ go to dual boot options / fix second rom permissions
9/ go to dual boot options / wipe second rom data cache
10/ reboot and you will see during boot the next reading: press home o volume button to enter to second rom.... so, press the home buttom and the phone will revive!!!!!!
I must say that every time the phone starts you have to choose to enter the second rom. This solution sucks, but at least your phone will work.
good luck

Have you tried flashing a samsung rom? Are you still on LQ5 kernel?
If this still fails after trying to flash a samsung rom using odin, i think you should indeed flash the original PIT, which will make things back the way they were before, even if it didn't work then
when i use Odin to install original rom , it stuck on data.img
and when I use recovery to wipe factory or cache , it stuck on formatting data
(( I used pit stock and i9100_u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4-patched-standard ))

After flashing just the Pit file, did you try to wipe data or did you try to flash a Samsung ROM with odin directly?

Were you using the LQ5 kernel when you tried to wipe data after the PIT flash ? I hope you weren't.

arf man, you should have stick to the step by steps and just that. There is still little hope though, send a PM to hg42 explaining that you flashed his modified galaxy s2 pit file but that you did the same mistake again (that i did too, but only once) , which was to wipe data using LQ5 kernel. Basically i think you now have two ****ty data partitions, back to square one.
He might be able to build a new Pit specially for you to flash in which yet another data partition will be created, next to the one you just screwed.
I modified my post to make it even clearer that you shouldn't wipe data while using LQ5 kernel.
Good luck man
is this guide only for people who can access to download mode?
my phone not response to any thing
what the solution for me?
Unfortunately some people were lucky enough to only soft brick their phones when other hard bricked them.
No solution for the hard bricked ones for now.

You are my S2 saver! Thank you! Thank you!
Since Thursday, when i lost my S2 because of LQ5, i have been trying to find any possible solution through ODIN, but the same result: S2 stacked on logo screen.
Today i decided to send my S2 to Samsung, but the last minute i saw your thread.
I had nothing to loose so i decide to give it another try and I GOT MY PHONE BACK!
After formatting internal card i got back 9,54 Gb. I remember that i had 11Gb free before LQ5 but right now its not major problem.
Once more
Thank you!!!!!
I know there are various this and that posts but only one was similar to my below solution. No RIFF box required!
My phone was stuck in boot loop for last 2-3 months. Only way I have managed to get the BEST and MOST COMPLETE CWM flashed was with SEMAPHORE cwm!
Idea was simple at the end!
WE NEED TO get phone on stock firmware BUT somehow to make the internal SD operational again!
Steps!
ONLY PREREQ: BE ABLE TO ENTER "DOWNLOAD" MODE! and have the drivers installed on your pc for your phone to be recognized.
* You can have an empty external SD card in the slot. No harm but better to remove the SIM card if any.
- Use ODIN (i ve used Odin3 v1.83) to flash SEMAPHORE (Semaphore_ICS_1.3.0s.tar ). No PIT file, No partitioning! Simply put the tar to PDA field and flash!
- Reboot into SEMAPHORE CWM and go to section with /data partition! YES! Select size 2GB and SWAP the max 256MB when asked! Exit and restart!
- Enter DOWNLOAD mode again and now flash (you need to find the stock EU region free firmware I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA.zip which is actually split in 3 tar and not just one!)
- ODIN 1.83 will automatically enable Re-Partition & Auto Reboot & F. Reset Time when you flash 3 files! Leave ALL enabled! Everything else just leave as is and apply below!
You need PIT file 512 for the PIT field!
Then:
i . PDA: CODE_I9000XXJVU_CL851880_REV03_user_low_ship.tar.md5
i i . PHONE: MODEM_I9000XXJVU_REV_00_CL1092175.tar.md5
i i i . CSC: GT-I9000-CSC-MULTI-OXAJVU.tar.md5
FLASH above and your phone should come start up normally to STOCK XXJVY firmware!
Once you up and running and looking forward to flash you most wanted custom ROM please always follow below procedure that I KNOW is mentioned over and over again!
1. ENABLE USB Debugging! (for CM 10.1 users its hidden in MODEL # in about section of settings (press 7 times)
2. ALLOW apps from unknown sources for installing ROM Manager etc
3. Root the phone by flushing with ODIN the CF-Root-XX_OXA_JVU_2.3.6-v4.3-CWM3RFS.tar in PDA field! - Simple but effective you will be rooted and CWM!
4. Copy your new ROM zip to the external SD.
5. Enter CWM. IMPORTANT: a. Wipe/Factory reset! b. Wipe Cache c. Enter Advanced and WIPE Dalvik Cache! (ALWAYS DO THE 3 steps prior flashing new firm)
6. Now you can select your ROM zip from file on ext sd card and flush it. * If you have custom rom like CM 10.1 and you want the Gapps now its the time to do it just after ROM flash finished! - You need to select correct GAPP based on the custom rom you will apply. ICS with ICS GAPPS, JB with JB GAPPS
THE BEST/STABLE/FAST/NET OK/CAM OK etc firmware with great boot i highly recommend is ICS_4.0.3_MR1-RC4.2_I9000.zip . Try it on your GT-i9000 after above procedure and I think you will be the happiest man! Extremely FAST and GREAT Battery handling!
PS I tried latest CM 10.1 but not as fast as above! Not needed in my opinion on the GT-i9000!
Thats all folks!
First, this should be useful for noobs but maybe in the Q&A section?
[Insert signature here]
Shouldnt this be 'clear' to all i9000 owners ?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
Att MODS: Can you move it to Q&A, please?
Is this compatible with i9003?
Havent tried i9003 as i dont have the exact model in hand but you can follow the steps and basically replace the files with the correct ones for your i9003. Again I repeat you will need for each model its own files and process... If you would like me to repair yours you can pm me and see if this would be possible.
bump i9000 boot loop
ONLY PREREQ: BE ABLE TO ENTER "DOWNLOAD" MODE! and have the drivers installed on your pc for your phone to be recognized.
* You can have an empty external SD card in the slot. No harm but better to remove the SIM card if any.
- Use ODIN (i ve used Odin3 v1.83) to flash SEMAPHORE (Semaphore_ICS_1.3.0s.tar ). No PIT file, No partitioning! Simply put the tar to PDA field and flash!
- Reboot into SEMAPHORE CWM and go to section with /data partition! YES! Select size 2GB and SWAP the max 256MB when asked! Exit and restart!
====================================================================================
Please where is the /data portion?
I found only partition sdcard...
Is this the same or anywhere else? I tried, but it is still looping.
I used JW4 after partitioning sdcard.
Thank you ...

thank you
thank you from the bottom of my heart.. you saved my phone..
Tried this a lot of times...
One of them I was so happy because the "failed to mount /scard (File exists)" error dissapears and no other red errors on boot. But unfortunately the phone still on bootloop.
So I tried many other times, following step by step, using same Odin and kernel, etc...
But it's not working for my old I9000 :crying:
BEST 4 i9000 I have found! Thanks should be marked!
Thank you very much,
now my SGS saved,
Even this is my first time i use odin,
Awesome

thank you from the bottom of my heart.. you saved my phone..
You sir you are the men
after I did this steps finallay I get cant mount data in update mode please I need help
Hi
SEMAPHORE CWM and I9000XXJVU_I9000OXAJVU_OXA.zip
i get all the way to having CM
but as soon as i install CM
the CWM is gone, so the reload after CM is the normal recovery, and then it boots into CM but it isn't rooted..
how do i fix this? thank you!2
I don't get this bit either:
- Reboot into SEMAPHORE CWM and go to section with /data partition! YES! Select size 2GB and SWAP the max 256MB when asked! Exit and restart!

I don't see any data partition section, not sure what you mean.
done but camera not work
done but when using camera
say insert sd card before using the camera
how fix this problem
Thank you
I have my phone brought back to life, thanks to you, Odin would not pick up pit file, sim card is not being read, I assume the missing pit file is the cause, advice on how to find it would be much appreciated.:good:
THANK YOU
HAVE MY BABIES. YOU ARE A LEGEND. Thank you soooo fricking much. I hit thank you so much that my mouse broke.
Hey there everyone,
Basically I was running cyanogenmod 10.1 on my galaxy s4 and i downloaded an up update from the Cyanogenmod updater (in settings). I then tried to flash this by TWRP but it failed and when I tried turning the phone on, it was stuck at the 'Galaxy S4 I9505' boot logo.
After that, I tried flashing my update.zip which I made from titanium backup but it kept failing to mount or repartition the system and cache.
So then I wiped davlic cache, cache and data but still
It didn't work (kept failing when repartitioning). So then I wiped system and now after browsing through the forum I realized that this wasn't the right thing to do as I don't have system files.
I can access TWRP recovery and download mode.. Could someone please help me in simple steps as I am a noob
Thank you in advance

Hi guys!
I did a backup of stock rom using cwm. then restored a backup of cm7. on restoring, it gave me this error:
ERROR MOUNTING /SYSTEM!
RESTORE FAILED.
so i rebooted my phone. now it get soft bricked. i can open recovery. in stock recovery, i can see all the recovery options but at the bottom its written
APPLING MUTI-CSC
RFS- FAILED TO MOUNT /SYSTEM (INVALID ARGUMENT)
yes.. spellings are written wrong on recovery.
if i goto cwm and restore nandroid backup of stock recovery, its giving error that
ERROR MOUNTING /SYSTEM
RESTORE FAILED
i tried formatting system via cwm, but it gave me error that
ERROR MOUNTING /SYSTEM
SKIPPING FORMAT..
DONE.
i tried flashing other kernels via cwm but it didnt help. also i cannot use odin (it takes upto 1-2 hrs trying for odin to detect my phone)
i am going to flash cm7.. i dont know if it will help or not..
pleaseeeeeeeeeeee help..
UPDATE: I think dat it will help if anyone could give a backup of /system dir in form of flashable zip (with commands like mkdir etc to remake system dir),, then it would be gr8..
If you a restoring a nandriod backup of cm7 you need to flash percys kernel first (I presume you were using that kernel when you were using cm7 as that is required) then reboot to recovery wipe system data cache then you can restore your nandriod backup
Change kernel to stock using hell fusion and format system and mount
Gửi từ Galaxy Y bằng cách sử dụng tia X truyền từ mặt trời!
If you have a nandroid backup of percy's cm7 then try flash stock rom via odin. Then go to stock recovery and flash percy's CyanogenMod7#2 kernel. Reboot phone and go to recovery again... You will must see CWM recovery and then try restore your nandroid backup.
Sorry for bad English
1. Flash percy's kernel.
2. then reboot recovery
3. format system. format data. format cache. mount all of them (system may not mount)
4. flash cm7 rom
5. reboot system.. (still bricked)
6. take out battery and re insert
boot into cwm, u will see many errors
7. flash cm rom again (3 times) (see steps3&4 for info)
8. reboot (still bricked)
9. boot into cwm. now all errors gone. format all and mount all of them (system will mount)
9. flash hyperion rom
10. fix permissions
11. reboot system now
12. fixed!

Will this procedure work on my device GTi9300 or should i keep looking for more?
I tried flashing
1) stock rom but connection hangs
2) Stock recovery NANDWRITE fails
3) PIT file but gets stuck on Get pit mapping thingy
4) and occasionally it just freezes at establishing connection
I tried pushing the file through abd but it doesn't detect once it reboots to bootloader on fastboot.

Please check where you are posting before you post - this forum is for the galaxy y 5360
As a general rule when restoring backups
1- restore the backup using the same kernel to which the backup was made

As a general rule when restoring backups
1- restore the backup using the same kernel to which the backup was made
2- restore the backup using the same recovery version to which the recovery was made

General advice prior to Flashing any phoneIts always best to do a "clean" install. meaning you should remove any old scripts, data, cache, junk before flashing a new ROM, this is like taking a bath before using new clothes. For some models it is a must do, for others it may not be a major problem or can be resolved by flashing the dbdata.rfs to clear out the remaining junk that you failed to remove before flashing . But if you had "lagfix" and did not undo it, it can cause internal SD card unavailable situation, which can be difficult to resolve.
Hence before flashing its advisable to
a) undo lagfix, IF you had any.
b) Do a factory reset by settings>Privacy> factory reset ( erase SD Card - optional , as formatting SD card could be too)
c) And even going into recovery to wipe everything is also good.
d) Removing SIM Card and External SD card ( makes it easier for phone to boot up initially after flashing a new ROM)
Doing this will give you a "Clean" install or fresh start for your phone.
Make sure your Battery Charge is more than 50%, Samsung requires you to have 100% charge when using KIES to upgrade.
Reminder, What you do with your Phone is your own responsibility, so do it at your own risk Flashing Procedure for Stock ROM using Odin3
1). You need to Factory Reset Phone first go to settings >Privacy> factory reset also can be done in recovery
2) Power Down and Enter Recovery Mode and wipe data and wipe cache
3) Power down and remove battery, Then reinsert the battery and Enter Download Mode
4) Fireup Odin3 on PC and Connect phone with USB cable to PC
5) Now select the ROM you had downloaded in Odin under PDA ( do not tick or press anything else )
5a) This is optional, depending on needs, meaning if your phone has problems than PIT file is used to partition the partitions.
When using , select M190S PIT file under PIT and (make sure re-partition is checked on Odin3)
When not using do not select re-partition on Odin3
6) Press Start Button on Odin3 and wait till is completed
7) Once phone has booted up and everything is working, power down and enter Recovery Mode, here you "factory Reset" phone one more time
That's it Now you will be using the new ROM you just flashed.

Basic Knowledge
First make a Backup of your current ROM, such that you can return to it, IF the ICS, Jelly Bean ROM is not what you expected it to be. How?
When Using a tegrak Kernel on the M190S , you can get this done on the bootup screen , by entering it and making a system and also a dbdata/data backup of your phone, which can be restored by using the terak kernel again IF WD19 ROM is what suits you best.
Your backup will be placed in the Tegrak Folder in the Internal SD card...so save this to your PC or external SD card for safe keeping.
Stock and Tegrak Kernel cannot be used for ICS or Jelly Bean ROM, and you need to use a Version 5 and up CWM (ClockWorkMOD) recovery, to flash the Jelly Bean or ICS ROM direct from your SD card...as such the first thing you need to do is change the Recovery on your M190S to a version 5 ClockWorkMOD.
Which means you need to use Odin and Flash the recovery.tar in download mode, just like you flash kernels and gingerbread ROM's on your phone in the past.
Here is the basic procedure for Jelly Bean or ICS Roms upgrade
1) Download the CWM Recovery.tar File attached below, the ROMs in .zip format ( it can be as many as you wish, for you to test them out, one after the other) and Place them in a Folder (create and name it as you wish) on your SD Card Also Download the Gapps.zip (Google apps) Files that need to be flashed after flashing the ROM. ( So it will always be two packages to flash, in order to get your phone functioning)
2) Flash the version 5 and up CWM recovery on your Phone, How?
Put your phone into download mode, Fireup Odin3 on your PC, connect to Odin3 with USB cable, select CWM Ver.5.0 recovery.tar under PDA and Flash it. Ensure you do not reboot the phone by "UNTICK" reboot in Odin3 such that it will not power ON after Flashing, in case it does power ON, just pull out Battery , press power button for 30 seconds and insert battery again
3) After flashing recovery with Odin, You can enter " Recovery Mode" . You do this every-time you want to switch to a JellyBean or iCS ROM or to utilize the many features this recovery has, like Backup/restore/fix permissions and mostly to do the full wipes (NEEDED to be done every time you want to SWITCH ROMS) etc
4) Once in CWM Recovery you do the Full wipes (use your volume keys to move up or down in the recovery menu to select and the power key to execute that command).
The undermentioned wipes need to be done and will constitute a FULL Wipe of your Phone but your SD card will not be fully formatted as such your Images and other non system files will remain as is.
a) Wipe data / Factory reset
b) Wipe cache
c) Enter advanced and wipe dalvic Cache
Once the full wipes are done,
5) You now choose the ROM you placed in your SD card by selecting "Install zip from sdcard" which will lead you to "choose zip from sdcard", which will take you to all the folders you have on your SD Card..scroll down to where you placed the downloaded files and select it
Once selected the ROM will be Flashed on to your phone, so wait till it says "install completed" Now you do the same selection process again (Step 5) to select the Gapps file and wait till it says "Install completed"
6) That's it, Now select "Reboot system Now".
Now the ROM has been installed on your phone, so let it boot up and you can repeat this procedure to switch again and again till you have the best ROM of your choosing.
In the event that it fails to boot-up or you placed a wrong ROM that caused a boot loop or any other problem, just look in My Android Solutions , IF you cannot enter Recovery mode to flash another ROM.
You can also use Odin3 to Flash a Gingerbread ROM in Download mode and use your backup to return your phone to its original state.

Read again and follow it carefully, you do not boot phone after flashing recovery, you power down and enter recovery to flash the ROM.

stl10 means you have some junk in your data partition, (most likely mp3 files) that needs clearing, so you have to flash the dbdata.rfs already in your ROM package one more time, try to unzip the ROM and flash only the dbdata.rfs file using Odin3 as PDA

I am not sure which m190s ROM has the CSC files as well as others that you mention and I do not use this model, so I will attach the dbdata.rfs file for M110S, which is identical and closest to this model, flash it to recover and solve your problem after that you can flash the WD19 ( M190S Latest ROM) to make it perfect.
Flash this as "PDA" using Odin3 version 1.7

you need to read and follow the guide, for factory reset, and wipes are very important and must be done for Korean versions. In fact Internal SD card has to be formatted before flashing for Korean phones.
so now try this use PIT file (re partition must be ticked) with the froyo ROM , you need to enter recovery to do wipes once it has booted, read the guide.
if that failed than use the CWM recovery with auto reboot unticked , after that power down by removing battery than enter CWM using combo keys, here you need to the wipes as mentioned in the guide than flash the Jellybean ROM using CWM

solution depends on what and how you try to root your phone, so if you don't provide all the details and what you phone is saying on its screen, its not possible to guess what you did.
but if you flashed CWM and reboot phone, you need to read the guide again, as it is written, you should not reboot but enter CWM recovery to flash the ROM
You can also look at My Android Solutions ( link below) to see anything similar

your screen shot is showing the stock 3e recovery ( means you had flashed a stock ROM), if you flash the CWM kernel and power down and use combo keys as written in first post you will get CWM recovery
it does not matter as long as the ROM you downloaded and flashed was for M190S . so here I am assuming you had not followed the flashing procedures as you must do the wipes and factory reset before and after flashing.
Please take your time to read and read the guide before flashing , its a step by step process, nothing must be skipped.
