If you can enter into recovery,try wiping data and cache.
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda premium
Thank you but I also tried recovery.it it not able to enter any mode
no replays ??
is this mean scrap the phone?
If it was an update.. Then i am sure ur phone is in warrenty.. Or shud be fixed by service centre for free... U can just ask them.. If they ask money.. Then u can flash stock rom via odin..
** rooting is new for me,
nd i am a noob to root....**
I don't care about the money or the service,I wanna care about myself and the forum here,didn't I been clear with my explanation? I explain that I can not enter the download mode or recovery mode so how can I flash using the odin or recovery factory reset as well
what I want to know is CAN I FLASH A ROM OR DO SOMETHING WITH THE PHONE THAT NOT ABLE TO CHANT THE STATUS OF INSTALLING UPDATE? IT IS STUCK ON THIS ,IF BATTERY REMOVED AND INSERT AGAIN THEN TOUCH ANY KEY IT WILL COME BACK TO THE INSTALLING

first get yourself prepared for flashing the stock firmware
find out these details first
1. what version of grand 2 are you using g7102 or g7102t or g7106 or g710
2.which country variant phone are you using that is from which country have you bought your phone from
these details are necessary for downloading the stock rom for your phone..
so first get these details first then i would guide you for further process
ps: these info will be at the back of your phone below your battery
& the coutry info will be the coutry were you are using your phone

Whenever this happens always keep calm have patience and don't get tensed , it happens with many people , it's normal . Now what everyone does when this happens is flash the stock firmware via Odin , just follow the above procedure by grohitsurana it takes time , (like 10-15 mins ) but it will recover your phone.
No need to freak out ! bootloops are no stranger to us all ! grohitsurana perfectly explained what you need to do ! good luck and relax !

Hey awesome dude........i reallly feel happy......i was really tensed.....coz this was my first ever fone u noe......we all know that feel ryt????
Thanks x 99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999
But although it worked fine it took up a lot of space i feel. I have a grand 2 with 8 gb internal memory. But now i am accesible only to 5.1 gb. I dont think it was this less earlier.
Did i do a mistake somewhere...? I did a cache wipe and factory reset before installing the new stock firmware...
Help me out guys!
Thanking you in advance

Did you try and flashed rom again ( odin) ?? another option would be to flash (odin) a custom recovery see if it let you enter it and do a factory reset ..only problem is it will trigger your knox bit to 1..
@lloop: Are you completely stock, or did you attempt to install a custom recovery? The behavior you describe is identical to the behavior witness by myself and others when trying to install TWRP 2.8.5.0 on the S4.
One other thing that might help here. On occasion I've had the device get stuck in recovery. Going into download mode, cancelling download mode, and then holding down the buttons to go into recovery often works.

I have tried a factory reset that way and it has done nothing.Is there another way?
Maybe flash stock via Odin
