Go to your recovery. Factory restore, wipe rom and clean cache /dalvik cache and install/reinstall your rom.

If the above doesn't work, you can reflash stock through Odin. Follow QBking's tutorial here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypmqJbZqOaU

AT&T Galaxy S3 won't boot past samsung logo even after flashing stock in Odin

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!

PMing probably would have been more efficient. You've revived a 2 month old thread that the user probably is no longer monitoring.

I wiped the cache, I cant find where the dalvik cache is located. the only things I can do are get to the download screen and the factory recovery. If the dalvik cache is in the factory recovery, then I havent been able to locate it.

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.

[Q] Phone Stuck - Please Help

I previously had Cyanogen Mod flashed on my phone and I did not like it. So I decided to flash the original AT&T stock rom back on using ODIN. Well now it boots back up and shows the AT&T logo intro, but it is stuck on the glowing SAMSUNG screen. Can someone give me some ideas to try to fix this. Thank you so much!
boot into recovery and factory reset
Wipe everything. Reflash a stock rom using Odin. Reboot and enjoy. Note that you might not want to use the file you already flashed.

A factory reset will do you fine. No need to reflasha stock ROM with Odin afterwards

[Q] [q] stuck in samsung boot! (help)

Hello, well yesterday night i tried rooting my S4 mini I9195 device running KitKat 4.4.2 firmware using Towelroot and suoersu. Well it worked but then i went to get root browser and changed the permissions to rwrr and it suddenly said that all the default android system has been force closed. So i tried to reboot thinking it was just a small error but then i got stuck in the samsung boot screen i left it over night to wake up to still being stuck. I've looked everywhere for a solution, alot of people say boot into recovery mode and then clear cache partitions but whenever i do it just pops up with a re "x" and the android man lying down, then it reboots itself back into the samsung boot up. PLEASE HELP.

You still have the default recovery.. The clear cache folder thing you mention is a feature of custom recovery such as TWRP or CWM. You need to flash a custom recovery over ODIN. And may I ask what 'thing' is it that you try to change the permission to r-w-r-r? That symptom is the sing of soft-brick...

I have fixed this now, I flashed a stock version of 4.4.2 and then also used the default recovery which then acted as a factory reset.

1st - there is no official 4.2.2 for the T210. Only 4.1.2 and 4.4.2.
2nd - saying your device "soft-bricked" without any more info is pointless.
Provide more detail about how you flashed and wiped.

Yes, sorry, that's what i ment to say ''4.4.2'' misspelled i guess. It soft bricked like it sometimes stuck on the logo with Samsung when booting up, and sometimes booting into TWPR.
To install rom, i put the zip file in my device's internal storage (no sdcard) and then rebooted into recovery mode, and clicked ''Install'' then i selected the zip file, and off we go, it installed and when it was done, i clicked reboot system, and it just got stuck and kept restarting a couple of times, like it didn't boot up, it stayed in the smasung logo, and after a couple of times it booted into recovery mode, where i just recovered the backup i had made after installing the 4.4.2. and it booted and my tab worked, but i really want an overclockable kernel.
