After several attempts trying to apply Lag Fix, my phone ended up doing endless boot loops and due to my ROMs being on the SD Card instead of Internal SD, I could not flash it and seem to not have access to somehow get the ROM file from External to Internal SD. I then tried to restore the Stock ROM through Odin and it failed miserably, with several stalls that eventually led to the screen shown below. This screen stays on when I press the power button and nothing else seems to work. Removing SIM and SD Cards also did nothing.

I got it past that by plugging in the USB cable and getting into download mode with Power/Vol+/-. However, I can not get anything to flash via ODIN once connected. ODIN does recognize the device on port 6 but once I select the stock files nothing appears to happen from there. ODIN just sits there. I went on a walk at the boardwalk to see if I just needed to give it more time but it was on the same screen. If I flash a kernal it sits at zImage, and if I flash a ROM it sits at cache.rfs

if you can get to download mode just keep trying to flash with odin. I think some mentioned loading the files before you plug in the usb cable.
I am in download but still no progress. I've tried a lot of times and it just sticks at cache.rfs. I think its a total brick. ODIN **** out on my when I was flashing JAC's kernal. Can't get anything since then....

OMG I finally got it. I had to leave ODIN open after it stuck at file analysis. I then took out the battery of the phone and put it back into download mode. I click start in ODIN and thankfully... she's flashing back to stock 2.1. I had tried a million different ways... ODIN is not exceptionally stable. No bueno. I think I'm going to keep the stock Kernal cause this was scary... lol.

What was my original post is not relevant anymore. Im stuck with a AT&T logo after using the odin3 one-click downloader. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
Somebody who can help me with this would be SUPER nice.
what does that Asian looking error message say?
seems like you are having some windows problem, it's probably missing some files
ok..ok but what? Should I reinstall Samsung drivers? (I have KIES installed)
I just updated my windows this morning.. anything to do with that?
Appreciate the reply.. but need a little more direction at where to go.
ok guys got a new problem. After searching for hours I found a thread wich contained the *solution* I thought was I looking for. It was the odin3 one click downloader (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989)
Ofcourse that was about american i9000 phones and not for my phone. So now im stuck with a phone that doesnt do anything besides showing a AT&T logo for 5 seconds on and off.
anyone that can help me. Or did I just majorly f*ck it up?
Im also getting this problem, but I was able to flash my firmware to JM5 after a couple of retries, still unable to narrow down the real problem.. there are times I can reflash or get this error with the very same firmware.. what gives?

download a JG8 rom from samsungfirmware website, and then use Odin3 to flash it again in Download Mode
remember to select repartition and use the 512 pit file
These errors seem to be pretty random, for the past week I was able to flash w/o seeing this error and now its back again.. Im currently at JM2 right now and I need to flash back to JG6 w/c i cant since im getting the error again.. anybody know what that error above means ?
EDIT:
Right now im using WXMJ2, flashing to XFJM6,JG8,JG5,JM5 gives me the above error.. already tried it all of my USB ports, power cycled the phone and the computer.. I am able to reflash JM2 over and over ( sometimes I get the error ) my battery level is at 95%, any know a fix or whats causing this error ?
Heres how I normally flash w/c has been going great since the past week execpt today, put the phone in download mode, run odin and select the required files and tick repartition, connect the phone and click start when a com# appears.
Is this some sort of big mystery ??
Tried to Odin to the EB13/ext4 release http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853209
Odin finished successfully, reboot the phone and now nothing. Tried to boot into download mode again, nothing, popped the battery out, nothing, tried plugged in to power.
What the ****? How is it even possible to brick a phone beyond download mode?
edit: Also tried the 3-finger salute (power, volup, camera) for a while, nothing happening.

Screen shot of Odin finishing successfuly.
I'm not sure what's the problem, but 00:11 seconds to flash a .tar is really fast? I think that may have been your problem I'm not sure, but it's just my guess.
What's the file size of the .tar?

292MB. It must have failed to flash the tar, but then why can't I boot bac into recovery mode to try again?

Try removing the battery, holding the power button and re-inserting the battery....if you get nothing, I would have to say that you are holding a brick...sorry and good luck
If you look at that screenshot, the PDA option is not checked, which Odin does automatically when you select the .tar file.
Given the incredibly short runtime, I have a terrible suspicion you ODIN'd without a tar. I have no idea what that would do.
It also looks like he had the re-partition option checked.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
he just re-partitioned and destroyed his bootloader since nothing was flashed in its place, more than likely.
I agree with the previous 2 posts you repartitioned and had no tar to flash so it kinda seems bricked...I would take it to a sprint store and say your phone bricked while updating OTA
p.s. the 3 finger salute is VolDown/Camera/Power not volume up
Ah ****, I have no idea how that got unchecked. Oh well, I'll head to the Sprint store and say it bricked while updating from the Samsung website (before they pulled it).
Somewhat screwy that Odin let's you do something that stupid, maybe it should throw up a warning or something?
hello everyone !!

Why the hell are you using the pit file and re-partition? Who even said that was neccessary?

Make sure that in Odin nothing is checked, except the "Auto reboot" and "F. Reset Time" checkboxes.

Uh oh! Won't help you now, but all the guides I've ever read say that you should almost *never* need to check the re-partition option, and if you think you do, go back and triple-check.
EDIT: Bear in mind I'm no expert, so you might wanna ignore this, but all I can think of suggesting is perhaps flashing a ROM which *does* need the re-partition option, like in http://androidflip.com/install-android-234-gingerbread-update-samsung-galaxy-2/
That said, this is assuming your phone isn't so screwed that you can't get it to download another ROM...
this pic is in stock ROM xxxkg3 !!
i didnt check re-part while flashing litening roms !
So what state is it currently in? Is it hanging on boot up, can you still get to the download option on the phone (vol-down, home key, and power key)?
firmware upgrade encountered an issue . please select recovery mode in kies & try again !!
my phone stoped in this situation ! what is this ? in kies - recovery mode it wanna
a recovery code ! where can i get this damn code to recover my phone to health ??
can go to downloading mode but i cant go to recovery mode to wipe cache !!
plug the phone into pc and open kies, and there is an option for "emergency firmware recovery" option in the later versions.
have you tried to flash an older rom (without re-partition or pit!!) via Odin?
Just flash a stock rom in while in download mode (as you say you can boot into it with voldown-home-power combo), then after the reboot go to recovery and factory reset.
After that all should be safe.
You might want to try another version with repartitioning to get back properly.
I9100XXKG1 (https://hotfile.com/dl/123505846/5faca77/I9100XXKG1.rar.html) downloaded from samfirmware should work, never failed for me.
Sidenote: with the stock roms (3 files + .pit file) that contain the user_low_ship it is rather save to repartition (although there are a very few roms that don't work/flash properly but reflashing another rom fixed it), did that myself over 10 times to get full performance back again while flashing to often between several custom roms.
Just keep in mind, if you still can get to the download mode it isn't fully bricked, but just soft-bricked, and that last one can be fixed
Don't forget to reboot phone or pull battery. Once a flash fails you need to restart phone and put back into download mode. Otherwise it will not accept any flashes and keep failing. Remove repartition check as well

So after trying to backup everything in recovery and flash PACMAN ROM for my phone, everything seemed fine, until it rebooted... When the LG logo appeared, suddenly weird horizontal lines started going across my screen and suddenly the edges of the phone started greying until the whole phone started going greyish-white, then powered off. I tried rebooting several times, and eventually it just wouldn't boot at all. If I hild the power button, it vibrates for a sec and nothing. When I plugged it into my PC, I can access it like a USB storage drive and my internal storage is still there, but I can figure out how to fix my phone. Did my screen die? Is there a way I can recover my phone from my PC via USB?

Back up your internal storage to your pc, more importantly the nandroid which is in the TWRP folder. Then follow this guide to get your phone back to stock.
I think that rom is kk u can find more info about that problem in liquidsmoth thread please tell me if fix it if not that mean how I know maybe u need to replace something in motherboard
Art is right. Follow the guide to get back to stock. If that doesn't work then it's a hardware problem.
Looks like I'm never trying the pacman rom on the g2...
Ok update. After following the steps in that guide posted, the firmware loaded and the AT&T boot screen popped up after reboot, though now LG Flash Tool is still doing it's thing and the screen's off with the phone still in USB and power light slowly blinking red, so I have no idea if it's fine or not.

Alright, it turns out it completed the installation and I just had to unplug it, it now works! I just want to know of which custom ROM to go with now.

Have you tried different USB ports and operating systems? Did you try deleting and re-installing drivers? Does the phone charge via USB cable?

Reflash TWRP 2.8.7.0 recovery and trying to install any custom rom.
After if u want go back stock rom, go developer option and check USB Debugging check box then connect your mobile to your PC and flash stock rom via Odin.
Good Luck !!
