I just tried to restore my phone back to stock from Liquid Smooth. Installed the stock file with odin and after that, when turned on my phone will show the samsung logo, then the galaxy s3 logo and then do nothing. I have to remove the battery to restart it. with the phone plugged in when off, it shows the battery seeing where it is charged at and then go black. Did i do something wrong with my flash or was it just a bad file?

Tried that, screen works fine in recovery and download but when it comes to anything after that galaxy s3 screen there is absouluty nothing. I can still turn it off with the button though, I may have not been holding the button long enough originally.

If wiping data in recovery after using odin to flash stock firmware didn't get your device to boot, reflash in odin. Please make absolutely sure you're flashing the correct carrier firmware. Unselect the auto reboot option and flash. After the pass, pull battery, replace and wipe data in stock recovery. Reboot
Flash the correct firmware in Odin. Boot into stock recovery and factory reset.

After the odin push of the insecure kernel the phone wouldn't boot normally.

are you able to get into recovery at all, or no.
There are two 'samsung' screens that i know of, i was stuck at the step 4.
1st: 'samsung'
2nd: 'Samsung Galaxy S III'
3rd: AT&T splash screen
4th: pulsating 'samsung'
I'm going to assume you are stuck on the pulsating Samsung screen. Here is what you should do. Go into the att cwm mode (not the real cwm) by holding volume up, home button, and then power button. Wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache. Then put phone into download mode - volume down, home button, and power button. Open Odin 3.07 on computer, select the from you want to flash in the PDA field, and then plug your phone via the USB cable that came with the phone into a USB port that is connected to your computers motherboard. You should see the COM port turn blue. Flash ROM and you should be good to go.

Yes, I can get into recovery and into download mode.
I was able to flash cwm recovery, but can't access the external SD card to attempt to flash a rom that way.
I tried factory reset/data wipe no luck.
I think something with the kernel i loaded is corrupt, so I need to find a known good stock rom to flash via odin.
It gets to the "2nd: 'Samsung Galaxy S III'" if I go into recovery mode.
Never past the first pulsing Samsung in normal boot, or download modes.

Was able to locate a working stock rom.

Long story short, an app failed on me. I used Google Wallet Installer, which bricked it. I have no Nandroid. I turn it on, and it goes to the Samsung logo and then the screen goes black and won't turn on again until I take out and reinsert the battery. I tried to flash stock with ODIN but it does the same thing. Is there anything I can do?
you said you've flashed the correct carrier stock firmware for your device. after doing that, you have to boot into stock recovery, wipe data, wipe cache and reboot. give that a shot

do the below. If you were on 4.1.1 and go back to stock 4.0.4 its a common occurrence. I assume you were since the wallet installer is for 4.1.1 rom's. It will delete you /data folder though

No luck. I was on 4.1.1 before. What confuses me is that on my phone sticker, it says I747, but when I hook to ODIN it tells me its a I747M. I don't want to try the other one unless I find out which model it is.

If you have an at&t logo on the back, are on at&t, and the sticker under your battery says I747, then you have an i747 my friend.
So you wiped data and cache in recovery and it still didn't boot up, eh?

Can't get into recovery. I've tried about 100 times but when I try to get it into recovery it says recovery booting but it just goes to a black screen again. Maybe I'll just upgrade to the GS4.

i would download the AT&T rooted stock firmware again (DLK3) and flash in Odin. then attempt to access recovery to wipe data/factory reset and wipe both caches.
i'm sure you know this but just to clarify, when you feel the vibrate and see the blue script about recovery, release just the power button. good luck

I'm following the post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426&nocache=1 (for the second or third time) to flash the stock rooted rom onto my att s3. I've done this before a few times and never had an issue.
I'm following them to the letter tonight and everything goes ok (at least ODIN says its ok...) but the phone won't get past the SAMSUNG logo on the restart. ODIN finishes, I see the green Android guy and a progress bar, then I think it reboots again, I get the samsung/at&t logo with sound, then it just stays on the SAMSUNG screen. I gave it time, up to 20 minutes, to finish anything it was doing.
Any help would be appreciated.
(Why am I doing this? I flashed CM 10.1 and somehow LTE didn't work, so I went to CWM and flashed my backup and I couldn't get any phone/data to work. So thinking something got fouled up I decided to just re-flash from the above post to get what I had, which was working.)

Enter recovery and wipe data/factory reset. You have things from CM10 lingering and this wipe will fix them.

you wont have CWM if you have stocked via Odin, but you will have 3e recovery with same option. Use same 3 button combo to get recovery
Suggestion
I sort of had the same issue except I didn't have any issues with recovery. I flashed 4.1.1 via ODIN and then got stuck at the Samsung logo. ODIN said passed so I did a battery pull and booted into stock recovery (holding volume key up + home button (keeping both held until I was in recovery) and hit the power button) and I had to do a factory reset and wipe cache and then reboot. Could maybe try flashing via ODIN again and giving that a shot if you haven't yet.

triangled-away, back to stock. now i can take my s3 back to at&t for warranty replacement (data stopped working)
thank you every who assisted me. i really appreciate it.
I am stuck in a very weird state with my phone. I rooted my phone after the 4.3 MK2 update and flashed CWM and a custom ROM. Everything was fine, except the front camera didn't work. So I was told to flash a kernel to fix it.
After flashing the kernel, it entered a weird state, where the screen was all scrambled, and I could not get into recovery. Trying to enter Recovery would show set warranty: recovery and then a black screen. So I downloaded the MK2 stock Tmo ROM and tried to flash it via ODIN (v3.09). While ODIN says successful, the phone is stuck at the T-Mobile 4G LTE white screen for about 5 minutes.
I tried flashing the root and TWRP/CWM recoveries, but I still can't enter recovery.
Could someone please help? I have done everything I know, and I am beginning to suspect that I've damaged the phone permanently.

When I press down Vol up and power, it goes blank. I can't access any recovery, stock or custom. Actually, I take that back. I never tried to access stock recovery. I didn't think I had any options to do a reset in stock. Is there?
You can do a reset there.

That worked. It looked like I pressed and held the volume up+power and didn't let go at the right time. Once I got into recovery, I was able to do a factory reset and wipe cache and it booted up.

Hi, I've managed to use Odin to install the bell with root image, phone now working with I747MVLUEMK5..downloaded clockworkmod recovery manager and used the att recovery image. Downloaded custom Roms, factory reset the phone, wiped cache and dalvik then installed the custom ROM. It installed properly but when I reboot, it won't turn on, I have to do the download mode to recover it back using the Odin. Tried different custom ROM and I made sure they are for this image MVLUEMK5... But same result, it won't boot up... Help...did I miss a step?
Copy a ROM to your SD card, install a custom recovery (I prefer CWM), boot into recovery, wipe cache, Dalvik, data, and system, install the custom ROM, reboot the phone.
Every 4.4.2 ROM I have tried (Valudus, Cyanfox, CM11) will boot with a stock 4.1.2 bootloader or newer so you should be fine.
Do you have any warranty left on your phone? Does your phone have Knox installed?

2.******Downloaded the image from* 66 CF Root….
3.******Loaded it to my phone (Using Odin)
4.******Made sure the phone is rooted after and it is
5.******Downloaded CWM Manager from Playstore
6.******Changed the Recovery image using the Manager to Samsung Galaxy S3 for AT&T (d2att)
7.******Downloaded Omni Rom then moved it to the SD card using My File app
8.******Rebooted to Recovery
9.******Backed up my phone
10.***Did a Factory reset
11.***Did a Wipe Cache
12.***Did a Wipe Davlik
13.***Flashed the Rom with no error
14.***Rebooted to System
15.***Samsung Logo showed up for a sec then the phone is dead
16.***Tried to turn it on by pressing the power button but not working, I thought the battery was drained when I rebooted, I plugged it in for half an hour but still not turning on. Was able to press the power_
17.***Vol down and home and it booted to Download mode
18.***Used Odin to load the image frok step 2 above and tried the same steps using different rom (Beanstalk-4.4) and the result is the same
Too much work for me. There is no need to have root before installing a custom ROM.
Do this:
Use Odin to install Philz Touch Recovery from here (use the tar version in PDA, do not check auto reboot): http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2att
Once it flashes and you see Reset in the windows, pull the battery, disconnect the phone from computer, boot into recovery, wipe cache, dalvik, system, data, flash rom, reboot.
Thanks for the help...I'll try this tonight...when you say pull the battery, you mean literally take the battery out of the phone? Would it boot to recovery when I put the battery back? or will it normally boot then I would reboot to recovery.
Thanks!

Yes, remove the battery. Disconnect the USB cable, replace the battery, press volume +, home, and power to get into recovery. Wipe cache, Dalvik, system, data, and flash your custom ROM.

Okay, installed Philz recovery using Odin, pulled bttery, unplug usb then boot to recovery...Philz recovery booted, was able to set to factory, wipe cache,dalvik and flash beanstalk rom,...rebooted the system and still shows samsung logo for a sec and phone turned off....I was still able to go back to phils recovery and tried a different rom and it did the same...just not booting up after flashing...
One thing I noticed is when flashing the rom it doesnt take long (less than 2 minutes) then it completed withoiut error....could it be the zip file or the SD card where i copied them?

Most of the 4.3 roms take a long time at the first boot once you flash it (when I flashed S3Rx it took 3 minutes 32 seconds, I timed it because most people say I waited a long time but have no recollection of how much time) it will stay at one of the boot image screens for several minutes then it should vibrate once the blue led should illuminate and then it will finish booting.
If the wait is too much for you turn it on, set it down, walk away, find something to do, 10 minutes later come back, if it hasn't booted now make sure you followed all the instructions correctly and flashed the right stuff for the phone model you have.

To make sure we are on the same page, is it just stuck at a boot screen or is it getting to a screen turning off and going back to the same screen repeatedly?

You can remove the asserts and try, but the phone still may not boot. Any particular reason you want Omni or Beanstalk? I personally prefer Validus.
