stuck on black screen after flashing rom - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I was running the new version of Hyperdrive until the mms stop sending so I decided to go to Goodness. Originally I could not get any rom to flash from the internal or external memory, so I pulled the sd card wiped everything and reinstalled my backup of carbon from trwp. After I confirmed the phone was working properly , i downloaded and placed goodness onto my internal memory (ext sd is not in right now) , and flashed no problem. Now the phone boots the Samsung logo, the goes into the Goodness boot animation, then goes black. I left it sitting for 30 min and nothing. Did a battery pull and nothing. So finally, I tried to get back into recovery mode and i cant. I hold volume up+home+power and the phone displays the blue script that shows recovery, then the samsung logo, then boots right back into the Goodness boot animation. How can I get back into twrp? Ive searched high and low for answers but cannot seem to find the answers to my problem. Thanks

Can you get into download mode? If so, reflash your recovery and try again.

Did you wipe in between flashes?

between hyperdrive and carbon I did a full wipe. Between carbon and Goodness I didnt. i figured I would be ok since I installed nothing but the os and gapps. I had done it other times with no problems and figured this time would be the same.

When you get to goodness boot animation does it not complete and the phone start the process over again?

Well I was able to unroot and re root my phone again. To answer the question though the boot animation would go on for 20-30 seconds and then the screen would stay black. No noise, no touch control, no indication that the power was on. When placed on the charger, the led wouldn't even display.

So is it all working now?

Make sure you redownload it, just in case it was a bad download.. you never know. I know it is time consuming but worth it.

Whiplashh Rom
Look it up.

there have been a few cases where for some reason the boot animation wouldnt start although the device was booting. simulating the " black screen ". this also has happend to me several times on a " first boot "......id try letting it sit for a few min. if it doesnt finaly boot, then just whipe whipe whipe.....reflash..and possibly redownload and reflash...

[Q] Problem After Flashing Asylum CM10

Couldn't post under the Asylum thread so hear goes........ Noob, not enough posts yet it seems.
Rooted Galaxy S3 i747M Telus ..... was working great until flashing Asylum CM10. CWM said it successfully flashed the ROM. However, upon rebooting the phone the normal Samsung stuff came up and the Asylum opening screen begins its thing and just continues to loop. It's been looping for about 3 hours now.......
Any suggestions on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated.

By Asylum I assume you mean the spinning CM10 logo on startup?
It is recommended that you do a FULL backup of your data then a full wipe back to factory settings on your device before upgrading to CM10. Now, if you get into recovery mode, you can do a wipe and that should fix it. Maybe reflash after the wipe.

Well it worked... I guess the phone was in what folks call a boot loop. After the data wipe, the phone booted up as it normally should,
Many thanks.....

No problem! Glad I helped. Sometimes some files can't upgrade properly so that's why it happens as they corrupt.

volume up+power+home button when you see the samsung logo flash on the screen let go of power button but still hold volume up +home button also no you know you are in the att section not verizon

No way out of this brick....tried for 7 hours..

Ok so basically, I rooted my phone yesterday. Installed cyanogen mod and cwm successfully. Didnt like cm....so I just flashed MIUI ontop of it (which was a stupid mistake and didnt think about it since it was early in the morning). So then I tried loading the stock rom ontop of that....no luck...then i tried loading another stock rom on top of it...no luck....and then another....no luck. Now I can only enter download mode with no way of entering recovery mode (which I was able to get into before but not after I installed like 3 stock roms)...Now when im in download mode, The custom binary download count is at 5....which im assuming is bad lol. Not only that, but i tried the "nand erase all" option on odin and still no luck....still stuck on the samsung glowing boot logo. Im ****ting my pants cause I just got this phone a week ago and cracked the screen the day before (first time every cracking a screen )...Goddamn android rooting is so much more complicated than jailbreaking the simplistic iphone (even though i fell in love with the s3 in just a week)
Soooo please Im shouting out to this community that has made so many guides (which i thank you for), but none were able to fix my problem .... Any suggestions? I can't do a factory reset either cause i cant even enter recovery mode...Im 100% sure that I used the correct ROMs and files for my att samsung i747
EDIT: I tried odining the stock ROM again (for like the 5th time) and now when I boot my phone, it gets past the 2nd screen (the samsung galaxy s3 screen) but blacks up right before the 3rd screen (the white att logo screen) and only shows a glowing green to blue LED at the top left. I am still able to enter download mode, but still not recovery mode even after odining cwm. Im up to a custom binary count of 8.

Probably have to factory reset in recover after the Odin to stock to get it to boot up. It will erase the internal SD though.

No, it won't. Factory Reset does not touch the internal sd. It merely deletes app data. But what they said, Factory Rest, Wipe Cache/Dalvik. You'll be good to go. This is causing your hang up.
Use TWRP to wipe system and data-wipe (bottom left corner, forget exact name). Those two items usually help me when nothing else is working.
You can wipe your internal sd card by using twrp and going to wipe.

i dont understand why you're device is powering off in recovery/download mode. any issues with the ROM should not be affecting the recovery partition. especially once its been booted into. lemme look around

do you have enough time in recovery to wipe data/factory reset? possibly even wipe cache?
so this device was running the ROM fine, you did nothing new and this issue just sprang up?

[Q] Phone is going nuts!!! Help!! PLEASE!!!

Ok so, I have been running Hyperdrive RLS16 for quite sometime now with no issues, going on approx 6 months now. Love the rom. Just today out of nowhere my phone started timing out. By timing out I mean, screen started going black as if I was closing it when I was in the middle of using it. This proceeded to happen for at least 15 minutes meanwhile it was constantly rebooting itself as well. After about 15 mins of reboots and screen timeouts, it got to where the phone would not stay on. it would boot up, then when i started using it it would reboot again. So after a battery pull, sd card pull and sim card pull I restarted it and since it seems to be doing ok for the moment. I immediately backed up my rom in clockword mod recovery through rom manager, backed up all my apps and created an update.zip in titanium backup. I downloaded the stockmod slim rom t999 4.3 v3 and the uvuemj4 modem that it requires for data and was gunna try and flash it and everytime i boot into recovery and try to select an option to pick, it randomly starts selecting things and jumping all over the place and then reboots. wont let me wipe data factory reset, or wipe dalvick or cache. wont even let me choose the rom or modem to flash. I tried to update my version of clockwork mod, and nothing. Tried to download goo manager and try twrp but it wont go into twrp it stays in clockwork mod and does the same. Im so confused on what to do to fix this and would like to flash a new rom to see if it will fix my screen timeouts and reboots but I cant get recovery to cooperate in order to do that. Can anyone help me? PLEASE!!!! I thought maybe if i try clockwork mod touch that it may fix the problem, but even if i download it how can i flash it if recovery isint cooperating?:crying::crying::crying:

It sounds like there would be a problem with your digitizer. Or motherboard. Either way it sounds expensive to fix.

The touch response is working fine though, and the buttons work fine. But it randomly scrolls all over the place in recovery and selects things on its own even when Im just holding it in my hand pressing nothing. I have the regular clockwork mod recovery not the touch installed. I have to scroll with the volume buttons and select with the power button. But even when im not pressing either it just goes in ghost mode and starts selecting stuff. Its crazy!! Is there a problem with my version of recovery? 6.0.4.3

Can you boot download mode? Odin flash stock firmware. If it continues then it may be a hardware problem.
i havent tried to do that. But i did do a factory reset from my settings instead of through recovery. I did lose quite a bit of stuff because it deleted my backups in titanium and etc but my recovery is working now. No more ghost mode selecting everything. But my phone is still doing the random reboots

Earlier I too felt this type of auto touch in my other device and I figured out that this was happening due to some radio interference at some particular time and particular place which was near a radio station
Whenever I go away or that station time was over it will be working correctly
May be something like this happening just for your information to make sure

[Q] Cyanogenmod cm-11-20131222-NIGHTLY-jfltetmo STUCK at boot logo

I was running the nightly version of cyanogenmod from 12/20 and i just downloaded the update from cyanogenmods updater right in the settings, after it finished i rebooted and installed it automatically and i have a supported recovery because ive done this a couple times already. but for some reason this time after the install there is a problem and i cant boot the phone up, its just stuck on the boot logo. ive done a battery pull twice and still the same thing. im guessing the only thing i can do is boot into my recovery and restore my backup from a few days ago, BUT i would like to avoid this because of the fear of losing all of my recent text messages. any help?
Try reflashing the nightly it's in your internal sd. I think under cm update our something like that
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Normally if it's stuck at the Samsung logo and it doesn't proceed after a minute or two I just pull the battery and start it back up, boom, homescreen.
Could have been a bad download. Delete the rom and try downloading again. If you want to take the extra steps, download the rom to your pc and check the md5 value against what's posted online here to make sure the file you downloaded wasn't corrupt. I've had it happen a few times giving me the same issue as you.

Okay thank you, i ended up just restoring my backup even though i was against it at first but oh well. I checked the md5 and it was different, there must have been a chug in my LTE and it missed a file or two. Thank you!
