Hey, guys.
I was just installing Gennxt kitkat cusrom for my grand 2.
And, I was forgot that you need 4.4.2 stock rom to flash it and I was flashing
it on 4.3 stock. After installing, my phone reboots and when it's going to show the bootanimation,
it was just black screen with vibration then reboots again.
Is my Galaxy Grand 2 SM-G7102 is bricked?
Please! I need to fix this problem!

Are you able to go to download mode? If yes, you can reflash 4.3 using odin after downloading it from sammobile or you can initialize firmware using kies. I would suggest you to try kies to be safe side.
Although i am not sure whether it's going to work or not. If you can explain your situation a bit better, some one will definitely help [emoji4]
Yep u r bricked !

Yes right but it would be better to help him. That's the whole purpose of posting the question. Isn't it so?? [emoji5]
Yep it is but u have already given him the solution !
Um anyway try Re flashing the custom rom and if it doesn't work then try flashing the stock Rom through odin
If not both then there is this post ! How to u n brick your SM-G710
Here is the LInk :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-grand-2/general/how-to-unbrick-sm-g7102-t2824576
Here is how u do it with Odin :
First of all, on your computer download Odin.
Download the Android firmware package.
And install the Galaxy Grand 2 drivers on the computer – you can use Samsung KIES in that matter.
Unzip Odin and install the program on your computer.
Unzip the firmware file on the same folder as Odin.
Run Odin on your PC.
Turn off your device and enter download mode.
Connect your devices by plugging in the USB cord.
From Odin (if the added message is being displayed and if the ID:COM section is turned yellow or blue – else try to reinstall the drivers on your computer and then repeat the steps from above) select “PA” and pick the firmware file.
Don’t make any other changes on the program; select “start”.
The process will be over when the “pass” message will be displayed and when the ID:COM section will turn green – you can safely unplug the USB cord and reboot your phone.

I already doing that and flash back to 4.3 rom and it's still bricked.
So I decided to send my Galaxy Grand 2 to Samsung Service Center and they say the parts inside
my grand 2 is broken, So they replace the parts inside my grand 2 and replace it with new parts.
And all was fixed
(Sorry for my bad english, cuz I'm Indonesian and Samsung didn't notice that I already voided my guarranty by rooting it )
The problem was fixed.
Alright, so the problem fixed by replacing the parts inside of my Grand 2 and everything was back to normal. :victory:
Now it's time to update my Grand 2 to kitkat!
(Again, sorry for my bad english, cuz I'm Indonesian kid.)
No Problem, Blame Balliboxer and his ****ty Faulty CusROMS!

According to Samsung Technician Slip, the problem was the bootanimation logo was hang and the acc files were gone.
So, the technician replaces the PBA part with the new one and install stock rom 4.3 JB (The most updated one.)
But there was no signs of Kitkat update for my Grand 2, But everything was back to normal
All I can do now is blame the creator of the Gennxt Kitkat Cusrom (a.k.a. Balliboxer).
(P.S for Balliboxer, Please stop making ****ty ROM that cracked from the S5, Note 3 or, whatever! Just stop making ****ing CusROMS! It bricks!)
Don't Blame Devs
Don't blame the developers. It was you who chose to install the custom ROM and f***ed your device with your stupidity level over 9000! Kindly try to read the instructions and act accordingly. Better, avoid doing things you don't understand.

@balliboxer is doing great job and his gennxt rom is great. I used it.
Bricking your device is completely your fault as you have flashed gennxt rom made for 4.4.2 over 4.3 android.
I would suggest to make an apology and most important is to mind your language.
Frustration
Um this is probably the reason why i ask people not to root ! bcuz if u root ur mobile for sure someday u will brick it trying to do something !
And i dont think ur Grand 2 was broken .... i think he has tricked u for money ! Flashing through odin wud have solved the problem ! bcuz flashing a custom rom or bootlooping wudnt effect any part of the android !
OMG?
Man, that kid is really weird. Why that kid would like to install a cusrom from 4.3 jb? He was supposed to be flashing it from 4.4.2 kitkat.
What a n00b.
Oh and one question, Did somebody here knows how to root grand 2 from odin or recovery? (I think from recovery rooting is safer than
rooting it on odin.)
A custom recovery is needed to root.

Actually, a custom recovery is needed to flash supersu i.e to root your device (at least for the time being). Flashing a custom recovery via odin alone does not grant you elevated permissions of a super user.

Try using Kies. Hopefully, it can update your firmware to latest KK. Otherwise, download H3 from sammobile firmware page and flash it through Odin.

I mean, at the word Can Samsung means, Can Samsung Technician update my Grand 2 to KK?
I think Samsung Indonesian have released the KK Grand 2 Update, my sis grand 2 already updated.
When I was going to update it via OTA update, it says your software has been recent and no need to update.
I seem to be having an issue with downgrading my S5 G900H Exynos to Kitkat from Lollipop BOAD. I've tried 4 different stock Kitkat firmwares from sammobile but all of them cause the phone to hang at the Samsung logo however I can flash back to stock lollipop BOAD and it works fine again.
ODIN gives me no errors when I try to flash kitkat or lollipop and infact both gives the "PASS!" mark what should I do?
I downgraded to KK from LP the other day, and ended up stuck at the Samsung logo too
Tried factory resetting, didn't work
The only thing that finally worked was flashing the same KK ROM again over the top of the one that got stuck at the Logo
Once I'd done that, it booted

You might need to flash the PIT file for your model S5, maybe the partitions are different between ROMs for that specific model
Be sure to get the exact PIT file though or you'll brick it
PIT file and KK ROM in ODIN at the same time, it will flash the PIT, then it will flash the ROM

You could flash a custom recovery like TWRP, but unless someone has made a flashable zip of the stock firmware for custom recovery it'll not work
You could flash a custom KitKat ROM from TWRP
The only method that works for mine is flashing CF Auto Root, to gain root, then using TWRP manager from Google Play to install TWRP Recovery
This will void your warranty though

Mine is similar to that too. I have to install CF Auto Root first and then install Flashify and then install TWRP via flashify img file to gain custom recovery
Might be worth flashing a custom KK ROM, then trying to flash stock over the top after 100% wiping everything & formatting from TWRP advanced wipe

No bother, Lollipop not your taste?
I went back to KK just to see what everyone was on about, lasted a couple hours and flashed back to LP, some people get great LP performance, some bad, for me LP is way better

Stupid question, but you did factory reset after upgrading to LP?
KK leaves behind rubbish files which cause battery drain, I got the same after first upgrade, but after a reset, it has been great since
Performance is definitely better with LP this end too, but you're not alone, the majority who upgraded say KK is way better atm

I decided to install a custom lollipop rom Zephyr Lite to address the battery and performance issues, if it works out well I will use it as my daily driver.
Nice one, fingers crossed

I installed a custom rom called XtreSoLite with Aroma addon and so far I'm happy with it. I tried Zypher Lite but it didn't work, rooting failed and had all sorts of problems so I'm glade to say I'll stay with XtreSoLite for now.
Thanks for your help mate
Good stuff, I was gonna suggest that exact ROM weirdly, I haven't tried it yet but heard good things about it
Hey guys, I'll keep it short. I was rooted, installed TWRP, running Simple Rom and was just feeling to flash erobot. Flashed it doing full wipes and then rebooted, cool. Got to the samsung logo and within a second back to the note 4 screen. Okay I said, maybe the file I downloaded was corrupted or I installed it wrong. Did it over again, this time trying a few variations in the aroma installer (not installing xposed) thought maybe that was the problem. Bam same issue.
No worries I still had the old simple rom on the sd card. Went back with the same install and what do you know, that rom is now in a bootloop as well. Tried flashing through odin but I always get a nand write failed to start or something like that. Tried 3 different usb ports and same issue.
Am I missing something? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
So you are using the Exynos model? Last I checked there is this OJ5 bootloader which can't be downgraded from!

guys help me im having bootloop because i was trying to install the su suser .in my note 4 Note 4 N910C lolipop in tw recovery still boot loop? because i want to root it .send me a maasage thank you
Anyone?
Did you flash a kernel for your variant after flashing the ROM?
No but that is my next move today, had a feeling it might be the problem, I'll try it and report back.
Oj5 bl doesn't let the flash of older rom even lp 5.1.1 older then oj5 but erobot 12 and 13.4 are newest then oj5 so it must be something else like the supersu v2.65 have issues with some costum kernels try to flash v 2.45

Had the same problem, solved it by flashing cf auto root using ODIN.
can't you just flash the previous rom again??
Enter your recovery and flash your "old" rom

hey guys, this is about the G900H , i just wanted to reflash KitKat based Xstrestolite for my bro.
the v 1.5 based on ANJ2.
and it keeps getting stuck on the samsung animation logo , i have reflashed the modem/bootloader and then tried flashing rom ,did a full wipe.
Note: i have flashed some of the latest TWRP recovery with Odin prior to trying to reflash Rom.
i had philz on it before, i do not know if that affects it in any way though.
it is really getting annoying, do i have to flash a stock firmware with odin in order to get it running again ?
i actually do not care anymore, i just want a Samsung based Rom on this thing that runs well and that is all ! (can be KK/LP/MM just as long as it boots ..)
i'd appreciate it if someone could guide me into how to get something running on this phone again, thanks !
Sadly yeap that's exactly what you have to do dude. odin is love odin is life hahaha

can i flash any type of rom base with odin ?
i tried flashing LP with it and i got FC's on the setup , couldn't get past the setup.
do i have to wipe anything in recovery menu after flashing firmware with odin ?
Yes any firmware should work as long as it's for 900h try wiping your user data in the recovery then reflash with odin.
