[Q] Mysterious problems with used Phone... HELP! - Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys!
So, my sister got a Galaxy Ace II yesterday with some ode stuff, then I decided to install Cyanomod 11, BUT more problems appered:
1 - My Windows 7 (64bits) doesn't recognize the drivers.. so it no even list the phone as conected. I tried using Kies to detect and a bunch of packages of drivers of this smartphone model, but till now haven't made any progress... what can I do?
2 - I reseted the phone to original especifications by his own menu and tried to acess its Download and Recovery mode by pressing the 3 buttons at the same time(Vol UP + Home + Power), but for my surprise it didn't boot like it should, jus initializing normaly...what can I do?
3 - I realized, when it booted, that the boot animation has been changed, samsung logo doesn't apper ever and including I found some stuff installed that doesn't seem to be something that generic stock roms have instaled; this made me think that the room installed is not its stock. If that's so, maybe the problems listed above are resolved, but still so I don't know what to do...
I want to install Cyanomod 11, but need the phone recognized for Windows, it rooted and in download mode, but haven't find a way to begin if my computer doesn't reconize it...
Any Help?

2. did you hold the buttons? another way is to use quick reboot from play store
3. cyanogenmod has its own bootanimation -.-

Yes, I hold the 3 buttons at once and waited to it boot, but it jus performed the normal boot, it didn't get into download or recovery mode... I tried many times, but it's always the same...
And I know that CM has it's own boot animation, I know it, but it's not it this time... it's another one... and for what I know, it's not the samsung original one...

Having Kies installed is counterproductive to installing flashing drivers (and if you sync contacts and calendars with Google I can't even think of why you need it :angel
Try unplugging the cable while entering recovery, the LPM mode (charging while "off") screws it up (but download mode should work!)
And by "no Samsung logo", you mean not even the firmware's "Samsung GALAXY ACE 2 GT-i8160"? Sounds like you got a fake then...
But if it boots, you should check the Settings/About menu and tell us the "build version", often that's enough to know what ROM is on it now

Ryccardo, I installed Kies in the hope of having the drivers easylier recognized... But that was not my luck...
About that trick could you be more especific? Do I put the phone off with the cable plugged to PC and when I press both 3 buttons I unplug it?
About the version it is :
DM_BASE_12A_W12.43|sc6820_modem|11-02-2012
And this means that??? It's not the original one, right?
Thanks for the help in advance!

Recovery mode is: with power off, hold up+home+power (if it's on, it will reset since you're holding down power... keep holding it) and download mode is the same with down+home+power...
But that version is VERY dubious, the standard Ace never had "SC6820" (maybe it's the L model?) and I don't even think it was out at the start of 2012...

Strange, afaik galaxy ace 2 is shipped with 2.3.6 android.
Did you succed booting in downlaod mode ( Vol down + home + power )
you have to flash Stock JB and we will see what is going on

No, I still couldn't reboot it nor in download nor in recovery mode...
Even doing what Ryccardo said, it still boots normally..

So could you please post a photo of the sticker under the battery (preferably with the entire inside back of the phone showing)?

Ah, sorry, I remember how much the <10 post restrictions sucked
But back to your problem, this is not an Ace 2... I suspected it since you posted that version number:
Googling "sc6820_modem" has http://www.pandawillforum.com/archive/index.php?t-18643.html at the end of the 1st page
2nd post there mentions "Star I8160"
Googling "Star i8160" on images shows http://www.gldron.com/media/tmp/catalog/product/6/4/64cfade20f06e0e31ffd853fb1f8009a.jpg as 5th result... while searching the version number on images shows a lot of Samsung clones...

Unfortunately you have fake galaxy ace 2 (
You cant intall any rom on that device

By this you both mean I don't have much to do to change the rom?

You surely can't use roms from these forums... There may be other roms for your device but you'll have to find out what it actually is first, which can be somewhat difficult...

Poor sister of mine.. She won't be happy in knowing this...
Anyway I wanna thank you Ryccardo and Rox!
You both Saved me a bunch of tie searching a solution that doesn't existed...
Thanks guys!

[Q] Help! Ace 2 wont start!

Hey im new here so im not sure if there is already a troubleshooting thread for the ace 2 here, but anyway,
My ace 2 wont start properly. It was working fine until i restarted it. Now it goes to the logo, vibrates once or twice, then goes to a black screem.
Ive tried pulling the battery, factory data reset, clearing the cache, but nothing works!
My phone is rooted (but its been rooted for quite a while now), and its running a custom rom (jelly cream). It experienced the same booting problem before after i flashed the jellycream rom but it started after i flashed a completely unrelated rom that was intented for unrooting my phone.
Can anybody offer some help?
Cos i know that the ace 2 cant connect to the computer without enabling the usb sharing mode, and i have absolutely no idea what to do.

Go to download mode 1st? And sometimes you have to reboot the PC to make it recognizes the phone.

What did you do to the phone prior to restarting it? Did you flash a ROM (which ROM)?
What version of the Ace II do you have?
AW: [Q] Help! Ace 2 wont start!
I had the same problem. Can you get into download mode? If the answer is yes then simplx flash a new Rom. Use a Stock Rom or the original one.
I had the problem that download mode didn't work (I don't know why) so i tried volume up+ volume down+ Home+ power (i don't know what that make but i found this somewhere in the internet) And then i was able to come into download mode and I flashed a new ROM

Hard-bricked Gio NEED HELP ASAP

I was attempting to install yajnab's Android 4.4 ROM for Samsung Galaxy Gio S5660 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2582642) when I encountered a Status 7 error. In a state of panic, I shut down the device to look for a fixed version of the ROM (also found on the yajnab thread). When I came back to the device, It was only displaying the Samsung logo (before the Samsung Galaxy Gio logo shows up). I left it at that for the night. When I came back today, the following findings were discovered:
1. It was in a state of black screen boot loop.
2. I can't enter recovery mode
2. I can enter download mode, but Windows doesn't recognize the drivers I installed. So the device reverts to its black screen boot loop.
3. Odin can't recognize the device since Windows can't discover the device's drivers in the first place.
I need help on this one very badly. Please be noted also that I can't afford a JIG (or whatever that was) and I can't send this to Samsung repair centers because the warranty on this thing is apparently gone 2 years ago.
Try this:
Remove Battery, remove SD card
Attach your phone to PC via USB cable, without battery inserted
Open ODIN and now the work begins.
Hold the respective keys to get into Download Mode. Then while holding them insert battery.
It'll get recognized on ODIN.. Mine did.

you havent the right cwm recovery installed for cm11
you need the cwm recovery 6.0.4.7
you probably need different samsung usbdrivers i gues this one Samsung USB Drivers for Mobile Phones 1.5.27.0: Free Download (if not trye a different one,for example the .24 one
see forum ,also windows 8.1 is hard for odin. for help see the forum...[DEV][RECOVERY]Clockwork Mod Recovery[6.0.4.5][19/12/2013]
You should unistall all mobile driver and adb
Unistall from program unistaller, and periphical panel. Then run USB de view to clean left USB driver. Right click unistall.
Then install proper Samsung USB driver and you should be able to flash through fastboot
Good luck

Problem Solved! But what's the best ROM?
I got the problem solved (After a week, sheesh) and Its running fine now. But the problem is, What's the best-est ROM that I can use? My sister hates CM10.1 with KitKat Skin, Yajnab's KitKat ROM was the root of the issue, and Maclaw's 4.2.2 apparently was "slow", according to her. She also doesn't like Jellybread as it was "hard to use"
Pretty picky sister, right?

You can use this CM7.2 based ROM.. I'm testing it on my GIO and it's really fast.. I have no idea about battery durability, but I can tell you tommorow..

Device Bricked or not?

hi guys I have an LG G Pad updated to kitkat officially, I have root it and I was installing the clockworkmod recovery using the recoveryinstaller.apk,
when I have tapped on flash recovery my device got stuck on black screen!!! I have tryied all buttons combination but nothing and the lg pc suite or mobiletool cannot do anything.......what I have to do?
Try to power off your g pad and turn it on again. If it get you to recovery mode, then you should connect it to your PC and try LG Support Tool to restore to factory kit Kat update.

If nothing else works, just enter Download mode and recover with LG Mobile Suite. To enter download mode:
1) With machine off, and cable plugged into the tablet but not into computer, hold volume up and down button at the same time (NOT power button).
2) Still holding the combination, plug into the computer. It will now enter Download mode. This can sometimes be tricky if the tablet won't stay off. The key is: on/off unplugged and still holding it-> plug into computer.
When you see the Download Mode on the screen (feel free to unplug the USB as it will now hold the mode until told otherwise), load the LG Mobile Suite and install the standard ROM.
Hi i tryied to put the device in download mode but the pc won't recognize it I can hear the sounds of Windows about the peripheric but the tablet continue to remain in black screen and the support tool won't recognize it.... I can try with another pc but for lg the warranty can pass with root?

Hi,
I'm in the same boat. I bought the device rooted and it was working fine, then after a day it just shut off when I was in recovery. It wasn't even while I was doing anything to it. I had rebooted into recovery from an apparently stable ROM. The battery was at about 40%. Now there are no lights and almost no sign of life at all. Occasionally when trying to connect it I get the cursor change that indicates that a USB device has connected but the LG Mobile app won't recognize it. Is there any chance that I'm just not pressing the buttons correctly? The instructions I've read say to make sure that the device is off, but I don't know how to tell conclusively that it's off. Has anyone had any similar experience, or is there something else I can try?
Thanks

Just follow the instructions above. If it has no charge, you may plug it in the wall for 15 minutes before starting.

I've done it many times but there's an element of uncertainty because I can't tell whether it's on or off. My Sony would go through some cycles of blinking lights. I'm probably overlooking something obvious. How do you tell whether it's off, or at least make a good guess?

Hi all,
I've got exactly the same problem, maybe even worse ....
Been reading all about unbricking, updating, recovering etc ... Downloaded about all software I could lay hands on...none working. The B2CAppSetup, which is supposed to install the Mobile Tools doesn't even recognise my Internet Connection , go figure... Or is that suposed to be a fixed-line connection instead of WIFI? I've got some 'off-line-fixed-tools' that starts OK, but as soon as I point it to the *.kdz file and apropriate *.dll's, it just stops with an extract-error. The flashtool I found doesn't find any device on any port,etc etc etc ...
My G-Pad is only running in a kind of bootloop (LG-logo 2x, the death-droid, and again from the beginning) The 'recovery-mode' isn't doing anything and the only thing that surely works is 'download-mode'. But then again, Win XP sees several LGE-USB-devices which are NOT recognised by the LG-software.
Any one ?

If you are in download mode, then you are halfway there. As to the drivers, try uninstalling them and reinstalling. Then enter the LG Mobile Suite fresh and try from there.

If you hold the power button for a few seconds, you will see it go off, even if it is showing a black screen. The difference will be visible.

NVM. Misread. Anyhow, I found it doubtful that the LG Mobile Suite has issues with WiFi specifically, since the software has no way of knowing how it is receiving data via the internet. It may be an XP issue.

I had a similar issue with Sony's Emma update tool. On one of my computers (a Fujitsu Lifebook) it consistently failed saying that I had no internet connection. Another computer was fine.
My bricked LG-V500 must have been some hardware issue. I wondered if I had done something because I was flashing various ROMs, but I didn't do anything careless and it died when I inserted an SD card, not while I was performing any updates. I had just bought it on eBay and I really didn't want to make the seller deal with it (even though he had rooted and tinkered with it) when there was a decent chance that I had done it anyway. He sent me his newegg invoice, I returned it to them, and they just sent out the replacement.

Hi, I have an LG G Pad v500 with the same problem. I was trying to unlock my bootloader. Then I replaced my aboot to this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2698267, following this guide: http://www.grupoandroid.com/topic/1....t-todo-en-uno/.
I have an LG L70 D325 and it worked to me, so I tried to do the same with my LG G Pad.
Now my LG G Pad doesn't turn on. My screen is black and I can't access "Download Mode" nor "Recovery Mode" and nothing else. It's seems like my device is dead.
Can someone help me?
Is there something that I can do to fix my device?
I appreciate all kind of help!!!

I know this is old 3 year old reply. But i'm fighting with same issue on my T-Mobile LG PAD V521. Did you get this fixed or could tell me how? I don't know when tablet is on or off and can't tell.
I understand it has to be off for download mode but problem is it might take long time for battery to be "off".
Thank you

And since then i stuck with this blue guy on my phone. And application in PC stuck on Detecting Device screen. Can't even go to recovery mode on phone, holding down volume up\home\power do nothing, this blue guy shows again. Anyone have situation like this and find some solution maybe ? Every help will be appriciated
small update : ODIN don't see the phone.

Hold on Vol up + Menu and then Power key for 4~8sec it'd reboot into recovery mode. Otherwise remove phones battery & insert and try boot into recovery/download menu.
I'm not able do anything except boot in download mode, but then i can't do anything, Odin still don't see phone
Do you've right drivers installed for PC & os?, because of missing drivers it doesn't show the phone.

Having the same problem, except I don't have Odin, the blue guy keeps appearing when I try to boot into recovery or download mode. Using Samsung galaxy S2 gt-i9100. I rebooted my PC as suggested by the cyanogenmod installer, but now it doesn't detect device. Pls help

Do you have a windows 7 PC? if you do, then you should not have any problem.. Phone will show up under com ports in device manager bit the com ports are hidden by default.. Further, you don't need to reset dates for lg flash tool, just search for megalock.dll file , google it...also google how to enable com ports in windows 7... You should be good to go

First of all, for that procedure and for the pc to work you need to get your phone on download mode (hold vol down button and connect phone to pc via usb cable). Are you still in bootloop? can you get to recovery?

Did you install the drivers in the post? You might want to reboot the pc after install. What windows are you using?

Try this.
In the part of the instructions where you disconnect the phone for 5 seconds, try disconnecting the phone, pulling the battery, and re initiate download mode (by holding volume up and volume down while plugging the USB cable into the phone). My green bar started moving immediately when the plug inserted into the phone. I've been trying to get this to work for the past 3 days. I hope it helps.
