So I am tired of using preview builds and custom roms,glitchy software and such, I was using a custom ROM, so I go online and search how to go back to stock rom, I found an article that said for the galaxy s3 you just need to do the same thing that you did when you rooted it, go to odin, and flash [PDA] thing to stockbell66.tar file, and I did so, but after the phone rebooted it stayed at the samsung glowing logo forever, I have to OS on my phone now, I tried flashing the stock one and it is now stuck at the samsung logo, I am still able to go back in download mode, and even recovery, but what do I do next? how do I install the stock bell firmware back on to my phone? and how do I fix the soft brick?

Man, I was in the same boat. I never would have thought of that, because I did the factory reset before the flash. Thanks for the help!

I can't seem to find the information for my situation, so I'm asking for help.
I flashed CM10 onto my phone about a month ago. I wanted to try it out, and I liked it, but not quite as much as stock. Today, I tried to flash the stock ATT rom onto the phone. Went through all of the correct steps, factory data reset, cache wipe, went through odin with everything the same as when I flashed CM10. Waited about 10 mins, odin says pass, my phone reboots, goes through the galaxy s3 logo, att logo, then gets stuck at the next samsung logo. I can load it into recovery, and download, so I know this can be fixed, but without a backup, how might I do this?
Recovery > factory reset.
Its a common problem for I think the newer s3s.

Its all of them. Not just newer.
Ok, i'm not a noob (at least i don't think so),
I've flashed every which rom before to play with, no problems ever.
Currently i'm on CM10 Nightly, with stock CM10 kernel and last ATT Modem (JB)
Wanted to go and try out the TW official release but need to stay rooted for TB.
I got CWM - cleared cache, cleared data, cleared davlik, formated /system /data /cache /sdcard
Went to download mode, kicked off ODIN
phone reboots and gets stuck at Samsung glowing loader
Tried above with TeamWin recovery - same thing
Tried to dirty flash over CM10 - same thing.
Tried to flash cache/davlik/ etcc with CM10 installed and flash with Odin, same thing.
Tried even all above steps with stock / unrooted JB rom, same thing.
Re-downloaded both stock and rooted roms and tried all of the above steps, same thing.
I can Nandroid back to CM10 no problem and it loads with no issues....
I'm about to give up on TW but just wanted to see if anyone has any ideas what am i missing?
Try reinstalling the samsung usb drivers. Seems like something went wrong while flashing from ODIN...

Could also be an issue with the ROM file itself...where did you download it?

After flashing the rom you need to do a factory reset in recovery

Whenever it gets stuck, hold down the power button, up volume, and home key... Once shut off let go do the same, when you feel it vibrate, let off the power button and hold up and home key. It should reboot into recovery and you can do a factory reset to wipe your data. wipe Data/factory rest and wipe cache, then reboot. Mine booted right up. :good:
Someone else's post that I saved for myself on note pad for when it happens to me so I don't forget

Not working for me.
I'm stuck at Samsung Logo.
Tried to do the factory reset in stock recovery that's loaded after ROM install with Odin, no go.
Installed CWM recovery and tried to do reset / wipe cache/ wiped davlik/ no go
Tried to re-download ROM and tried again, no go.
Tried to load TeamWin recovery and do the same thing no go.
Still stuck at Samsung logo -
Waited good 15 20 min and still stuck
sorry i am at a loss
Try downloading a different version of tw stock rom.
It could most likely be because the original one you downloaded in corrupted or a incomplete file.

Firstly, calm down.
Second, upload a rom onto your external sd card and flash it from your recovery.

Being calm is number one...
Anytime you get a boot loop go into recovery. If you can't right away pull the battery, reinstall battery and he again.
All you need is a factory reset to get out of a boot loop. Happens to the best of us. Not needed to flash with odin.
Glad you're all fixed up regardless

Yea. After I flashed threw Odin but I was still stuck in a boot loop. Factory reset fixed it.
Hello. My friend gave me his phone to try and fix, and it won't boot past the Samsung Galaxy S3 logo. I tried going into recovery, and factory reseting, but no dice. The little android guy in the background of the recovery is dead (lol) when I first get into the recovery. It isn't rooted btw. I tried flashing a custom recovery, but no luck.
I had a similar issue but my phone was rooted. I flashed clock work mod and wiped data a few times. Have you tried putting the phone into download mode then flashing stock firmware?
