Hey, I’m looking on an Samsung s2 (9100) that been dropped and after that it starts a few seconds then gives a message that something can’t load (? Don’t remember exactly) then it restarts and does the same all the time. The motherboard gets pritty hot in the upper area. Seen some that removed simcard and then could save all files and update it. I only trying to save all pictures. Tested several programs for it Dr.phobe etc but nothing works. If I put it download mode and the other mode it dosent restart. Any tips?

I would consider doing a factory reset if you do not need the data on the device, then if that does not help try reflashing the firmware using this guide: http://updato.com/how-to/how-to-install-

Jonny, said you dropped the phone. It could be something was knocked loose. Follow the tear down guide up to about steps 5 or 6 and make sure everything is intact. This may resolve your problem. Samsung Galaxy S II Teardown
