Did you boot into stock recovery and wipe everything after all that?

Make sure you're using stock kernel as well as stock recovery when you're using triangle away.

That reminds me. Its time to make a completely stock backup before I go flash crazy again. That total stock backup can save alot of time:thumbup: cheers gentlemen:beer:

If the counter continues to reset to 1 something is not 100 stock. I would recommend flashing a stock Odin package, root it, run triangleaway and see if that worked.

I had this problem with my s3. What I eventually did was triangle restore. Odin restore. Then before it rebooted for the first time, I went to recovery and wiped everything and factory reset it.
I had to battery pull before it rebooted.

It's seeming that it's the kernels that are killing our fone. It's the 1 common denominator

Find a different cm10 compatible kernel and flash it through cwm or through Odin.

What is the name of the ker el you flashed. And link possibly.

Have you tried going into recovery? Maybe there is still cwm? Since your flash back to stock seems to have been unsuccessful.

Just had a thought. It's easy to get stuck on boot when you flash back to stock without wiping.
If you can wipe it/factory reset that could solve you're problem.
And it'll boot up.
It's confusing cause it looks a lot like your phone not booting cause of the kernel
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Yeah just take the battery out and get into android recovery by pressing volume up, power, and home button. Then wipe/factory reset and reboot system.
^^^^ just like the gentleman said. Reboot into recovery and factory reset it. It should boot up after that.

Recovery isn't there, any way I could do it from adb?
Sent from my HTC Ruby using xda app-developers app
If you can get into download mode, reflash the stock tar in Odin again or just flash the cwm or trwp recovery tar and reflash a different kernel
Sent from my SGH-T999
Here is a link to Odin-able recoveries that you can use. I also agree with the others that this is probably a mismatched ROM/Kernel that is preventing you from booting up. The only problem I foresee is that you Odin'd a stock image, so now you are not on CM10 anymore. Now you'll have to find a TW kernel that you can flash, like Morfic's or I think Ktoonez has one too. But you can ADB push the kernel to your SDcard so that when you flash the recovery above, you should be able to then go in and find your kernel and flash that.
What I suggest first is to Odin one of the recoveries (TWRP is what I use) and then once that is done, go in and Factory Reset and try to boot it up. If it works, great. If not, then you may need to move on to pushing a kernel and flashing that.
Volume up + Home + Power takes you to Recovery.
Have you tried that?

Tell people what worked so that it can be documented when it happens again and I can link them to something they didn't search for themselves.

In Downloading mode

Not sure if anyone knows or notice.
When first time phone comes
It has
Factory Mode
System Status: Official
After rooted and reset by Triangle Away
Odin Mode
System Status: Custom
I thought it would reset everything back to factory like first time but no.
Unless I miss something.
Thanks.

After you flash triangle away you need to Odin back to the stock unrooted signed package and it will be 100% stock.

You should flash it while in cwm recovery. Not stock recovery. Should work no problem then.

It should only count up if you change kernel....hmmm maybe I'm wrong? I'll get back to u
Edit: yup pretty sure....just a non stock kernel will trigger a counter tick.

True, but I don't think that'll fix my issue. I need to remove twrp, get stock recovery, and completely get rid of su and anything that vibes with it
