so heres my problem. i succesfully flashed the cyanomgen 10 md2 build....was messing around with it decided i didnt like it as much as stock, so i plugged the phone into my computer via usb and hooked it up to oden selected the tmobile factory firmware and selected pda and the firmware hit start and flashed it back to tmobile stock....well when it rebooted after flash thru oden it wouldnt go past the samsung screen.so i googled it and found a recovery option said to flash cf root v6 thru odin so i did that and it failed...now i am stuck at a page where it is the recovery page where it lists odin mode, product,custom binary etc etc but usually where the little android bot is it is saying "firmware upgrade encountered an issue.please select recovery mode in Kies and try again. well my device in kies wont connect trys for a little while and then says defice not responding please help!
Try Odin flashing your FW again. If it sticks at the logo reboot back into recovery, wipe dalvik, factory reset, and reboot again. (This is what prob needed to be done 1st time around) It can take a few min at boot so be patient.
Where did you get the fw you are trying to flash? If you use MrRobinsons root66 fw its pre rooted.

Yup. Same thing happened to me. Turn your phone off and use power + home + vol down to get to download. Odin back to stock or MrRobinsons (much easier in my opinion). Then boot into recovery using home + power + vol up and do a facotry reset. Note: this may wipe your internal storage.
worked like a charm thanks guys very much
I too was having the same problem so i just joined searching for an answer. This worked perfectly after banging my head against a wall so many times with the info i was finding else where on the net. Thanks!

I tried to flash to stock through odin mode and when it's rebooting it shows the Galaxy s3 logo, AT&T logo, and then it reaches the samsung logo and freezes. I'm thinking that the boot image is incorrect but I'm not sure. I tried to use the gs3 toolkit but every option in there requires USB debugging which I can't access since the phone wont boot. Help?
I also cannot find the CWM 5.8.4.7 recovery anywhere I can't restore my nandroid, it says "cannot restore /System" of the nandroid.
The only available CWM i have now is 5.5.X.X.

I kept trying to flash the stock ROM and it finally worked so disregard this thread or delete it please.
For anyone's information this all happened after I flashed the Ultimatum ROM while I was on CM9 nightly.
The ultimatum rom flashed successfully and i rebooted it and then...nothing, it was a black screen.
I still had access to the custom recovery and odin mode but even after restoring a nandroid it wouldn't boot.
I don't know why it did this but my stress is your knowledge.
Thanks!
In the future, just boot into the factory recovery after flashing in Odin and do a factory reset.

I'm having this same problem, stuck at the Samsung logo. This all happened when I was trying to restore to my backup after trying out a JB Rom, but it gave me an error when restoring system. I then tried to flash back to stock using Odin and here I am. Also I am trying to get to recovery but holding the 3 buttons isn't doing anything. Can anyone help me out?
nvm got it all fixed thank god
For anybody who flashes back to stock from ANY non stock rom. You must boot into recovery after the flash is done and clear your cache else you will get stuck at the Samsung logo

Here is a quick fix... spent my 8 hours, so now I am officially PHD in stuck at boot fix. If solution work, kindly hit the thnx button:
This thread didnt help. However I was able to fix my phone. Since I was not able to boot the phone, I was not able to turn on USB debugging that many softwares inluding the link you have mentioned required. So this is what I did for the benefit of those who may face this in the future:
1. Booted into the download mode vol- + power+ home key
2. When in download mode, I installed clockwork recovrey for ATT Samsung S3 which can be found at many links. I cant paste her as I dont have the rights to post links yet. But the filename was CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.0.tar. The file I downloaded had a .tar.md5 ext, I just deleted the.md5 extension so I was left with CF-SGS3-CWM-v5.5-v1.0.tar
3. Than I used Odin and selected the above file as PDA and left everything else at default
4. The phone rebooted but again was going to go into the unending samsung logo. So shutdown the phone.
5. Than I did vol+ + home + power key and THANKFULLY booted into recovery
6. Thereone it was simple, that is restore factory defaults, wipe cache, wipe delvik cache etc etc. and boom. I am back in my phone.
Thank god, almost had a mini stroke!!!
P.S. Had lost root upon reboot. Did many things but device would keep loosing root. I went to CWM recovery and selected "fix permissions" bang.. phone back to how I used to like it rooted and booted!
thank you magn2o

omg thank you so much for that. purchased a rooted cynagenmod att s3. was not happy with it. so i flashed it back to stock rom with use of mobil odin. it was stuck on samsung screen while booting up. so i read and researched a bunch of threads. decided to download odin and another tar. samething happened. if i knew it was as easy as a factory reset it would have saved me some time. is there anyway to just post the fix earlier in the thread. or somehow make it come up as the first link when you perform a search? just asking for other people. just in case .thanks again xda. you guys always come through.

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
I just had the same problem. Flashing Samsung logo...thought that I was screwed. I tried to keep calm throughout the whole thing...(kind of helped) and did this. After Odin failed a few times I decided to restart my computer. After that it had to reinstall the drivers for the phone, ran Odin again, succeeded. Phone booted normally after that. I would suggest keeping the default settings in Odin as it appears (AutoReboot, etc) and do it that way. So:
1) If fails, restart computer.
2)Run Odin with defaults
3)Let the magic work
4) Enjoy your working phone, or start with number one again.
Hope this helps!

I had this exact same situation when I tried to do a restore after i flashed cm 10. It failed on the system folder and the phone was no longer able to connect to computer. I just reflashed the cm10 and it came back to normal boot and would be able to be reverted back to stock threw Odin. If you flashed the stock firmware I'm surprised its not fixed . but I would just somehow flash a new ROM.

I think I bricked my Rogers S3.
I had JB running on it. Today I decided to root it again ( I rooted it couple of months ago and then went back to stock). I did the same procedure as last time i.e. using toolkit, however, when I had to choose which file to choose in odin to be flashed in insecure boot, I chose "boot-insecure-spr-l710palen.tar" instead of choosing "boot-insecure-canada-rogers-i747mvale8.tar".
Now after odin finished doing ALLINONE "insecured boot, CWM, root phone + install busybox", my phone restarted and I could hear the samsung logo voice but the screen was totally blank.
I went back to odin and chose ALLINONE "insecured boot, CWM, root phone + install busybox" and this time chose the right file but still the same thing.
So now I decided to unroot the phone by flashing the custom rogers version back on, so I flashed the custom rom using ODIN but still my phone keeps on getting stuck at the samsung logo at the start up. It doesn't go any further.
Is it bricked? How can I solve this problem? Thanks
Note: If i press volume up+home+power, I can get into the mode where it gives me the options to reboot, wipe etc.
Should I try to root it again and try to get into recovery mode to see what can be done to fix it?
Bumped!!!!!!!!!
It's a soft brick, so you're okay.
Just download Odin and flash a restore image on your phone with it.
Search the "development" subforum for "Odin" and you'll find everything you need.

Having same issue with SGH-T889. Any help? Heard of similar issue with Nexus 4. They have revert recovery disabler. Not tried on my Note 2. Is similar solution available for T889?
After flashing recovery in Odin are you booting up the phone (or is odin - i.e. auto reboot is checked)? There is a file (/system/etc/install-recovery.sh) that you need to disable to have recovery "stick". There are a few ways to do this, but my preference has been to do it within cwm/twrp recovery via adb after flashing in odin but prior to first bootup of phone.
Hope that helps!
Ive had luck un-checking auto-reboot in odin, flashing recovery, wait for it to say pass, unplug USB, pull battery, and boot straight into recovery by holding home + vol up when powering on.
This can be dangerous so make sure odin is completely done before unplugging.

I know you can't access CWM Recovery..
Allot of us use TWRP Recovery and it works great. I think it is safe to say it is a Superior Recovery now. I suggest you use that Recovery.
You can get it installed easily by downloading GooManager from the play store, opening the app, hit your menu button and tap Install Open Recovery Script. That's it. Quick and easy!
For the people having a hard time, are you rooted? If you are just download goomanager and use it to install twrp

ATT S3 stuck at the Samsung galaxy 3 logo, i tried to use Odin and flash but it wont work (stuck at system) and I cant access my recovery mode. I try to go into recovery mode but it just reboot and goes back to the logo.
The only thing I can access is DL to try to flash it through Odin but It just not working , I tried the original update from samsung and the jelly bean and it keep getting stuck in the loading system.
please advice , I am desperate.
Are you trying to flash back to stock?
I went through this the other day. Boot into the stock recovery and do a factory reset. Wipe User Data/Factory Reset I believe is the actual option.
Should boot fine after that.

Looks like you may be soft bricked. You can always send it off to JTag for repair. This guy on eBay does it for $35 and he has 700+ sales with a 100% satisfaction rating http://item.mobileweb.ebay.com/viewitem?itemId=271160547396
If you can get into dl mode you can fix it. And make sure that you are trying to get into recovery the right way. I know in times of frustration getting into recovery can be annoying. ...a few deep breaths wait a little while then try for recovery. If not. .. down load the newest odin, erase and down load New drivers for your phone and attempt odin again, Flash stock rooted.

would any one have a stock recovery of original DLK3 that would be for odin, or a location to download it. keis said if I could get into stock recovery....
thankx
i'm not even stressed yet I went thru this once with my captivate and I got out of that one.
I think that running kies and odin at the same time can disrupt odin. Not 100% on that but I always disabled or removed it first as per something I had read. Also if you have been running anything using ADB on your PC, use the task manager to make sure it is not still running in the processes. It has caused me problems getting a connection to the phone to stick.

You need to post more info if possible but it sounds like you are trying to downgrade from MA7 to an earlier firmware like LK8. The update included a security patch so it won't let you go back to insecure. Try pulling the sboot out of whatever you are trying to flash or stick with MA7

It's not brick cuz odin can still see your phone. If you dont have TWRP on it, go to www.twrp.com and download the tar file for sprint note 2. Then use Odin to flash it. Once you are done that, go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086769 to get either the old LJC or MA7 and put it in your phone either internal or external SD. Do the wipe cache/factory reset first. Then flash it. It will go back to stock rom.

I cant get Kies to recognize the device at all not matter what pc is use however it shows up in Odin but it fails everything from stock files ( older and current ) , different versions of Odin, recoveries and I even tried a " unbrick .tar file " .

Can you odin a custom recovery and boot into it?
1. Put phone in download mode
2. In odin program uncheck reboot and flash recovery
3. After flash disconnect phone and pull battery
4. Quickly insert and remove battery multiple times (if you just reinsert battery it will automatically boot)
5. Boot phone into recovery backup any important data that is on your internal sdcard
6. Do factory reset then flash billards stock mc2 with counter reset (do not wipe cache after flashing this)
7. Flash superuser zip found in billards Op
8. Reboot phone and freakout when see the screen do odd things and reboot (this is normal)
Now it will bootup on stock rooted mc2.
