So this is kind of a unique issue i'm having. I have the I-747 on AT&T and flashed AOKP rom (it was taking too long to get JB). It worked for about 3 days and then got stuck in the android boot screen (used the rom feature to get rid of the pink unicorns). after that, I booted into recovery and reset my phone, and it worked again for a few more days, then it wouldnt boot again (I dont believe I changed any settings between the boots). After this time, it wouldnt let me boot into recovery and would only boot to the android start screen and stop. I used odin to flash the stock rom, which only took me to the 2nd samsung boot screen and stopped (after the AT&T splash shows up). I looked online and saw someone say try CF-root using odin, tried that and it didnt help. Then tried using a custom kernel siyah s3, and now it will only show the initial samsung splash screen before turning off again. Any suggestions here? I figured I'd stop researching since i dont want to really mess up my phone worse than it already is

I have a similar issue, someone please help
Your main issue now is that you flashed siyah. We don't have one. If you can get to download mode, you will want to flash back to stock.

Thanks guys! So I used odin to flash the stock boot loader and stock rom, but it is still hanging up on the 2nd samsung screen like it initially did (the one after the AT&T boot animation). Any other ideas on what could be the cause?
How long is the hang? Sure is just not the 1st initial boot of the new rom?

The first boot can take as long as 5 minutes sometimes. So, if you haven't waited that long, then try out some patience. Otherwise, try booting into recovery (stock now) and factory reset.

bump!
I have this same issue. I have restored to stock rom and it does the Samsung boot, then AT&T, then it goes to Samsung pulsating with a blue pulsating LED.
I have left it in that mode for at least 15 minutes and it never boots.
I can still get into download mode.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Has anyone tried booting into recovery after flashing the stock ROM and wiping caches then rebooting?

I let it run for 2 hours (left the house came back and i was still on. And phone wont boot into recovery at all ( i tried many times, but it just boots normally and skips recovery until it gets to the 2nd samsung screen, then stops there).
I dont know if this is relevant, but while the phone is off and plugged in, i can still see the battery meter and the Green LED (so i'm guessing it's still working, it just wont boot)

I went into recovery many times before, I'm definitely hitting the buttons right but it still wont go into recovery, it just tries booting like normal. I can go into download mode easily, but that's it.
jbizz, did you start getting this error after flashing AOKP rom also? trying to figure out what could have caused the issue in the first place
I'm not really skilled on these things, but I once had a similar issue with my phone not booting and had to end up using Kies to emergency restore it. Odin wouldn't recognize my phone but kies would.
Although I think my issue with odin may be stemming from my computers usb ports...

I actually flashed a bad kernel and the phone wouldn't boot after that.
What is the proper way to boot into Stock Recovery?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
Fixed it! What I did was go into Kies software and did a firmware upgrade instead of trying to flash from odin, then put it in download mode instead of recovery, but it still worked. Thanks for all the help, guys! guess it's time to move to a CM based rom?

Sure, I'm doing this largely from memory since I mostly figured it out by throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks.
Open Kies->tools->firmware upgrade and initialization->enter model name then serial number (they're behind the battery) -> put the phone in download mode and plug it in. it should take care of the rest.
Fair warning, this will fully wipe your phone, i lost all my pics (thank you google+'s instant upload or i'd be PISSED) and titanium backup (there goes my 3 stars on every level in angry birds and great scores in temple run), but at least you get a phone that can function as more than a paper weight, right?

It sounds more as a glitch to me, a bad flash will cause uglier problems I think, as loops, not booting up, hangs up, crashes etc.
If I were you, I'd flash a stock rom, go to recovery, wipe cache, factory reset then again wipe cache. Then I'd root it on stock kernel perhaps with CF-auto root and then if anything is back to normal I'll go to other roms or whatever you want to do. Always make sure your usb debugging is on
**Edit, I just reread you thread...how did you flashed again if you were not able to enter the dl mode?
( I meant to say ran the rooting program in odin again, not flashed ' sorry
Thank you very much for your quick answer ' im just waiting for a reply on the stock firmware thread ' as im not sure which firmware to flash as my note 2 is unbranded ' carrier unlocked and im from the United Kingdom ' I was gonna flash the uk vodafone firmware but then my phone would probly be carrier locked to vodafone and im on the carrier giffgaff ill mske sure in the future I remember to to tick usb debugging ' noob mistake ' It was just that it took me sll day too find a store that was not dold out of note 2's I just got a bit excited lol thanks again :thumbup:

If you want to flash the stock rom, at least in your case I'd forget about odin this time. For your sake I'd start from 0 and just reflash it trough Kies, at least that way you will know for sure where you stand.
But reading your comments such as turning it on and going to the purchased state confuses me. Your rom is either pretty much f****** or I hope not your newly replaced device faulty, perhaps some hardware/memory issues I have never heard of.
There is a thread for how to go complete stock via kies somewhere

Still it's not clear what is issue it's download /recovery
Where you normally wipe and backup that's call recovery not download mode
Download Mode is volume down+home +power
If you getting download mode correctly then flash any stock rom (2013 released) with pc odin

tried to remove the battery and reinsert it still same ,
Unplugged the battery for few mins still same ,
now this was getting on my nerves read few Post on Xda most of the Fix were to Flash the device to Stock Firmware
some said to Wipe and do a Factory reset and some but i was unbale to load it in Recovery Mode ,
So thought let me try the same step that i did for Rooting My device using Odin and that Worked like a Charm

Hi,
I have no idea what possessed me to update the kernel using uNEAK, and as soon as I did it and rebooted it, the phone went kinda dead. It tried to start and still does sometimes upto the "Samsung Note II" window but nothing happens after that. I tried to put the phone in recovery without success; whee did I go wrong? Please help! I have vowed not to be so impulsive ever again... Thank you
