I just rooted my phone using the CF Auto Root and that went all fine and booted up normally, but after i restarted it again my self, it doesn't go past the "Galaxy SIII" splash screen. I can get into the recovery and download modes perfectly, but just won't boot. I have the original OTA 4.3 update installed and that's about it. Any help would be greatly appreciated... Just really upset and frustrated my phone just won't boot.

Ive re-flashed my phone with CF-Root-SGS2_XW_CLK_KF3-v4.0-CWM4.tar using odin and it just restarts and gets stuck on the galaxy s 2 logo witht he triangle and does nothing.
### FIXED ###
Flashed with ODIN 3.8 with seperate PDA, PHONE and CSC files and its fixed it,Flashed with 2.3.4 from this tutorial incase anyone els hase this problem.
Thank GODDDDD
As it seems - every third or fourth software upgrade fails somehow. At least you can get to download mode again and try again.
Quick FYI: I have been messing with ROMs for about a year so I am pretty advanced in troubleshooting but i cant seam to fix this.
So I've been running Cyanogenmod 10.1 for a couple of months with no issue. CM just released a new stable version so i went and upgraded to that, a few hours later I noticed decreased battery life and on that particular I really needed battery life. So i went where the CM updates are i saw it still showed 10.1 as download so i hit install in hopes that I could roll back. rebooted show the progress bar of installing and then i was stuck at the galaxy s 3 splash (with the CM logo) and after multiple reboots could not pass there.
I then went into download mode and used ODIN to flash the stock rom everything wen fine until i went to reboot. I see the samsung logo, and then the GS3 splash screen, and the AT&T splash and then back to the pulsing samsung logo and it stays there...
Please help guys! And yes before you ask I did wipe the cache and re flash with the same problem!

Hi,
I recently tried installing the new 4.3 update onto my Samsung Galaxy S3 I747. Also, I never rooted my phone and my carrier is Telus if that matters.
When my phone finished updating, it lead to the lock screen. Just as I was about to enter my pin and unlock it, the phone restarts and gets stuck on the Samsung splash screen. I have tried entering into recovery mode and then wiping the cache and restarting it, but no luck.
I do not wish to restore my phone back to factory settings because I do not want to lose my music and apps. Is there a solution that can fix it without wiping the memory?
Thanks.
edit: i left it charging for a few minutes while it was stuck on the samsung splash screen, and then it went to the lockscreen and restarted it self
... i have to wait five minutes before i can save my edit
editedit: it just went to lockscreen for a second again
editeditedit: its going back to lockscreen quite often and restarting it self

When you got it into recovery did you try to wipe data/factory reset??
But to be honest it sounds like your phone is soft bricked maybe. I'm experiencing the almost same problem with my AT&T sgh-i747. Mine is stuck at the Samsung Galaxy S III screen and doesn't go any further than that at all.
You will most likely have to do that same thing I am doing which is reflashing android 4.3 via odin. It may work for you, I'm pretty sure it'll work for mine. Head over here and read this thread and see if this can help if not let me know and we'll come up with somethin else to help you fix your phone. (If I'm correct following this thread and flashing via odin will not erase and of your data.)
Your only other real option is to install the 4.3 MJ2 leak via heimdall. http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2496425
Heimdall will flash odin files. http://glassechidna.com.au/heimdall But odin will not flash heimdall files. It works much like odin flash in download mode so i'm told. I'm trying to figure it out now. I hope this helps.
I was never able to get the above Heimdall installed correctly on my pc. I am still stuck at the black and white galaxy s3 screen. I installed TWRP via odin to try my to run my nandroid i made earlier today and it says successful. But when I go to reboot It says No OS are you sure you want to reboot. I was already on 4.3.3 via the OTA update like you. And now i'm here turn phone on and it's going straight to download mode
Please HELP US BOTH Someone ANYONE
Hi, I was unrooting my samsung galaxy tab s and it all went fine and the odin passed and reboot the device. Now it gets of the initial boot screen but now stuck on the boot animation. It vibrates and then double vibrates once in a while. I have waited and waited. I don't know what to do any suggestions would be very nice. Thank you

Make sure your using the correct firmware. If you attempt to downgrade you'll have to wipe the data partition.
