Stuck in recovery

[lmbgx6]

Hi--

My galaxy s2 somehow got itself into recovery mode (I was driving and noticed it when I stopped; I wasn't trying to upgrade or anything). The screen says Android system recovery at the top and gives the options to reboot, apply an update from sd card, wipe the data, or wipe cache partition. I've tried to reboot and the screen just comes right back. Then at the bottom it says "Manual mode", "Applying Multi-CSC", and a bunch of red error messages saying "failed to mount, can't mount, can't open," etc.

I've been looking online and have tried holding both the power button and volume buttons at the same time, holding the power and home buttons at the same time, and taking the battery out and putting it back in. Nothing has changed the screen that appears when it turns back on.

I'd really appreciate any help! Thanks!

Also, I got it from T-Mobile.

Have you tried any of the options in recovery before restarting?

I've tried to reboot, apply updates, and wipe cache partition, but not wipe data. Nothing seems to affect the screen--it looks the same, with "Recovery" at the top and lots of red error messages like this: E: failed to mount/cache (invalid argument), E: can't mount/cach/recovery/log--about 15 of those. It won't even stay turned off. When I press the power button it comes right back on and back to the screen

Try updating the software.

It won't allow me to do anything--the only screen that appears is the reboot screen. I've selected all of the options and nothing changes it.

Have you tried connecting it in Kies?
