I've recently started messing around with my old S3, which is problemed. It randomly turns off and is just old. I flashed the stock rom thinking that would fix it,maybe it was a bug with cm13. Now it gets to the Samsung logo, doing its flashing, and does not go past it. Should I flash it again or did I break it.
More details, please. How did you flash it back? Did you wipe data? Which version of stock did you flash? What version of stock was it on before you went custom?

I was messing with my Gs2, trying out some new roms (it has been rooted and custom flashed since i got the phone a while ago) and ended up with a soft brick getting stuck at the Samsung screen during boot. No big deal I though (since this is my backup phone I didnt worry about it) and planned on flashing back to stock with Odin and starting over. I flashed the stock 4.1 via odin and it all seemed to go fine, but when it rebooted it got stuck at the same samsung screen. I left it there for like 20 minutes and it never booted. I then downloaded the stock 4.0 and same thing. I am about to try going back in time to the stock 2.3 and see if i can work my way forward from that, but if it doesnt work, what is the cause of the phone not being able to boot after all these stock flashes?

Im stuck in the same boat with my S4
which ODIN version are you using and are you using the links from SAMMOBILE to get the firmware you need ? also what are your methods of procedure and is odin giving out any errors or saying pass and still no boot ?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-M919N) from Metro PCS.
First I rooted it, then I flashed Cyanogenmod. I didn't like Cyanogenmod so I tried to flash it back to the stock rom. The problem is that there is no stock rom out there yet for my phone. So I used the stock rom for the T-Mobile version (SGH-M919). After I flashed it, the Cyanogenmod whirling blue circle came up so I knew something was wrong. It stayed on that circle for about thirty mins then I turned the phone off. Now, even CWM recovery won't come up(just the android laying on its back with a !red triangle above it) and anytime I try turning the phone on, it just goes back to the Cyanogenmod screen and stays there. Somebody please help me!
Theres no stock rom because Metros s4 is Tmos s4. Its literally the same phone. How did you flash back to stock? Zip file or Odin with a tar? I suggest boot into download mode and flash the stock tar via odin
So, i have a Samsung Galaxy S III i747... Flashed it with CyanogenMod, and saw horrible battery life, and the phone stayed hot... Flashed back to an older version of CyanogenMod, and it was just unstable and a mess, so i formatted everything from recovery, and installed the stock ROM via Odin... Stock ROM worked, but i wanted back to Cyanogen, so i rooted the phone, downloaded the ROM manager, downloaded the ROM, and installed it... And it failed. So, i figured i'd hit the NAND Erase All button in Odin, and then repartition the phone, thinking the buttons wouldn't blow up the world... Now i'm stuck at the Samsung logo at boot. I've tried several different versions of the stock ROM, i can still get into recovery, and i can still get into download mode, but it always get stuck at the Samsung Logo after the AT&T carrier video.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm really hoping i didn't brick my phone... Odin sees it, and everything still works, i just can't boot the stock ROM, which means i can't get anywhere else.
try a factory reset in recovery after flashing rom

I Odin'd to stock a couple days ago and was at the Samsung Logo for a WHILE (over and hour). It did just go eventually.
Not sure what did it... Got a PIT file, and then did the NAND Erase All bit again when i installed the stock ROM again. Wiped data as soon as install finished, and it booted right up. I'm happy again
Now if i can just figure out the LTE glitch...
I had the PA android build of 4.4 running on my tablet and decided to flash the franco kernel, which put me in a bootloop. I have since then flashed stock back onto the nexus 7 but with no luck at all, it's still in a bootloop. I tried to flash Clockwork mod onto it, but it got stuck on the google logo when i tried to boot into it.
I've been screwing around flashing stock images back onto the device but nothing seems to be working.
I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong here so any help would be appreciated!
I'm not sure if this is the same issue I had before, but after going back to stock I've always had to do a factory reset (you can do it from stock recovery), otherwise it would lock up at the X screen.
that did the trick. I've never actually needed to do that after flashing back to stock before, but it seems to have done the trick!
Of course I missed something obvious like that though 9.9
I found my old galaxy tab s t700 and tried resetting it. I had a custom rom and recovery, and now it's looping on the "teamwin" logo which flashes every few seconds. Not sure what to do as it's been years since I've flashed anything. I just want to get my tablet up and running with the latest software available for it, please help!
