Am i bricked?

[Skyy0]

Hi. Im using the sg2 and i was so mad att the vlingo thing so i thought that rooting was a good idea. It was not. I used odin and it just said fail whatever i did. Now when i was supposed to start the phone normally the ''firmware encountered an error'' message came up and i was unable to use it. I could go in to download mode so i downloaded jelly bean and the installation froze. So i closed it and when i pressed the power button nothing happened at all. And it's not the battery. What's the easiest solution? Thanks

Hi, I don't know about the s2, I have an s3 and I had a problem like that, I was told to go into recovery mode and do a factory reset which worked on my phone.

If you can still get into download mode your not bricked. Install the stock firmware from SamMobile and flash that. It sounds like a bad download of the firmware your trying to flash.

Welcome to Android Forums Skyy0.

I'm sorry to hear of your predicament.

I moved this into the All Things Root subforum where other folks are more likely to know how to help you fix your phone. Good luck.
