Please Help!!!!

So I did a Root 101 No No... In a sleepy state I decided to flash my T-Mo galaxy S2 without doing a system wipe..... smh...smh. As a result I brick my phone. However, in a way I've never seen before. Is there anyone out there that can help???

Here the problem:

Phone does not turn on. (No sound, nothing on the screen)
Phone does not respond to 3 button press. (No vibrate and can't get into clockwork)
Phone does not connect to usb port. (it contently connects and disconnect)

As you can see this is a BIG problem and its left me stump. Before I declare this phone as a shiny paper weight I leave my hope in you guys.

Thanks for the help
 
Welcome to the forums :)

If you boot into recovery and perform a factory wipe then it should fix these issues.

Thanks for joining and I hope this helps.
 
I can't get into that screen. The phone gives me no indication that its on or off. It's kinda like if you were to try and do anything with the phone without a battery.
 
Welcome to the forums Boomer. :hello:


Try this, pull your battery and leave it out while you read this guide.

Then put your battery back in and try the procedure to use Odin. Start Odin, Hold both volumes on your phone and then plug the usb cord to your phone. Hopefully, that will get you to the point you can flash a stock rom.

Thanks for the step by step. The phone still has no response. It connects to my pc then disconnects. Not giving time for Odin or Kies to see it.

Ok, your phone is unplugged, you are holding just the 2 volume buttons when you plug it in? Try different cord and usb port?

If Odin can't see it I'm not sure if anything can be done. :( The only thing I can recommend in that case is mobiletechvideo's JTAG service. You could try a usb jig first but I've never used one. This is a good thread for info on that.

I went out and got a new usb and still nothing. I'm really at ends on what to do. Thanks everyone for the help. I still learned a lot out of this.

I don't think there's going to be quick fix unfortunately. The cheapest thing to try next would be a USB jig. I wish I had a better answer for you.
