My sis has an att galaxy s3 that was unlocked and she downloaded some themes on the phone to change the wallpaper but we had to do a factory wipe. Now the phone won't boot past the samsung screen. We see att and their animated wallpaper but after that, can't go any further.
How do we fix this?
Flash your current build of firmware with odin.

Hey guys. I was running Omega rom for a while, and today i decied i would flash 4.3 paranoid android on my n7100, but when i tried to flash, it kinda went bad, first time it booted with no problem but than i wanted to reboot it to insert SIM and i got stuck on Samsung Galaxy NOTE II N7100 White text screen. I tried wiping everything, reflashin PA and CM10.1 but i cant get past the white text.Not even Boot Animation starts. I can get to Recovery no problem and I even tried reflashing the recovery. It didnt help any.Should i try to flash stock rom via odin? What should i do? It just wont get past the white screen. I repeat, flashing various ROMs didnt change anything.
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

I recently brought a tmobile unlocked, Samsung galaxy s3, T999.
I tried to upgrade the firmware with samsung kies, but it stuck at 0.
Then I tried, Emergency Firmware Recovery, it also got stuck.
I rooted it and applied a custom rom, CyanogenWIZ(Found here top review rom)
Then i wasnt able to turn on wifi, SIM not detected, etc.
Then I wiped all data, reset the phone.
Now it does not go to the home screen, stuck at loading(with that google 4 colord dots).
I can ONLY access, Recovery Mode and Download mode properly.
THEN
Finally was able to re install the stock rom,
T999UVALEM_T999TMBALEM_T999UVALEM_HOME.tar
galaxys3root (COM) / T-Mobile Galaxy S3 Stock Firmware MD5
Now, It loads all those "Android 4G tMobile logo, Samsung galaxy SIII, that green animation"
But it does not go further than SAMSUNG logo with blue animation thing.
I installed the,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2308514
*****ODIN Firmware*****

Now, IT says,
"Firmware upgrade encountered as issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
When I press the turn ON button.
please help
I've been trying to find a copy of the galaxy s5 splash screen and the galaxy s3 Splash screen because I want to make a galaxy s3 splash screen with the new powered by android logo. So I guess the S5 splash screen but for the GS3.
Does anyone have copies of these? I've searched around Google but haven't been able to find anything suitable for the task.
Thanks
Jordan

Here's a gs5 one I made. You can just flash in recovery.
You can change the logo if you unzip it and replace the boot logo.rle file then rezip and flash
