Dudes,can someone lend a hand please?
I started off this morning stoked that I came accross a root method and recovery for MM,but this evening I just want my baby back.
I don't know where to go from here. I was rooted using this method,but something has gone awry.
Right now I'm in a bootloop and the samsung logo with the kernel message in red. I've tried restoring stock ROM's via adb and Odin and nothing works. I have TWRP installed, but TWRP will not allow me to transfer anything from my PC to my phone so that I can flash stock firmware and start over.
I'm literaly lost as where to go next,someone please show me the light?

I was trying to flash my phone (AT&T SGS3) back to stock today using this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426
While I was downloading, I accidentally kicked the usb cable out of the phone.
I immediately pulled the battery and restarted the process.
Odin said it succeeded but when I boot I get stuck on a screen where it just says samsung. Like the first screen you see on boot but it happens a second time after the galaxy s logo and the at&t logo.
I don't know how to fix this. Can someone please help?
Also I was going to try the not rooted stock roms from this thread.

But the downloads don't seem to be working. Anyone know where I can download the stock roms?

Maybe try going into recovery mode and do a factory wipe there.
That worked. Thank you, you just saved me in a big way
Glad it worked. Happened to me too. From what I learned when changing ROM types tw-> aosp you need to wipe data.

Hi all,
I've been using a leaked Touchwiz JB ROM for the past couple of months, and today, I decided that I wanted to return to unrooted stock and then root using the V2.3 toolkit located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746680.
I wiped everything with TWRP and installed the stock ROM with no problem. Then, I ran the toolkit to root the phone. The toolkit said that everything processed correctly, but now, my phone won't boot up and hangs on a black screen after the Samsung Galaxy S3 logo appears. I can hear the bootup jingle at the black screen, and the LED stays lit with a blue light when it is on this screen, but I can't do anything else. What's worse is that I don't have a custom recovery installed. I can get into Odin download mode, however.
Does anyone have any advice? I really hope that this phone isn't permanently bricked.

Thanks a ton for the quick response. I'll get to work on this now.
I ended up fixing it by installing a prerooted JB ROM via Odin.

Hello,
Would this suggestion also happen to fix this problem?
I mistakenly followed the instructions of a video on youtube on how to root a Samsung GSIII and accidentally soft bricked my phone. The problem was (as the creator of the video says) that the video was outdated and I ended up flashing the 4.0.4 boot image on a 4.1.1 Samsung GSIII. So far my phone boots up with the Samsung logo, but falls short at a black screen with a pulsing blue led light. When I plug the phone to the computer, It get recognized just the same way as it would if it had booted up fully. I searched most forum posts but haven't come up to a solid solution. I might need to search some more, but can u confirm if your suggestion is likely to fix my problem.

qbking77 also has a video that walks you through the steps to recover from a "soft brick". It involves using Odin and a stock JB .tar file. I haven't looked at the video in a while, so I do not know if the link to the stock file is current. qbking77's video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypmqJbZqOaU&list=PL7011CD883D5201B8&index=29
There is also this thread on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1904099
I flashed and got stuck at the Samsung screen with the blue led..... from recovery all I did was reset/ factory settings and was back in business.

Hey Guys,
I was on a custom rom before but decided to go back to stock. So I decided to follow another post under this forum about using Samsung Kies to get me back to stock, According to KIES everything went well but now when my phone tries to boot, it just hangs on the samsung Logo.
Im waiting on hotfile to download my stock Rogers Image and use Odin to flash the image but is there anything else I can do? am I on the right track?
or did I just brick my phone some how.
Thanks

How long phone hangs on samsung logo, did you try to restart in stock 3e recovery and clear data, did you try to remove sim and sd cards and try to restore again ???
Hey, Im doing the steps you stated in the other thread, I installed the troubleshooting connection driver, removed SD Card and Sim card and now its doing its recovery through Kies.
When I did this last, it was about 5 minutes it was hanging for but I will see how long it hangs for now.
and no didnt think of restarting in stock recovery and clear data, will try that too.
guess I should of tried those too. sorry just panicked I might of messed up my phone lol
omg thank you so much!!!! i had to go to stock recovery and clear data and then it looks like its fine now. Im at the welcome page.
So I've torn apart the forums trying to find something to solve this problem to no avail for the SGS3's. To explain whats going on with the phone the phone will go into download mode it will go into recovery i used Team Epics Sprint SGS3 Stock Restore i would include link but as me being a new member I'm not privileged to that ability. I used Odin3 v3.07 which is the only thing so far as i can tell contributed to the problem. The Phone rebooted before it went to pass and the box turned blue and said reset. but now if i just try to regularly power up the phone the Samsung and SGS3 splashes show the phone then does the sound for the Sprint splash but the screen for it is totally shut off not even back lit and the led pluses blue and stays there.
Just would like to know if anyone has experienced this problem and if so knows how to fix it or can atleast get me pointed in the right direction
So do you still have a custom recovery? It sounds like somewhere along the way the stock rom wasn't restored completely/properly
Try rooting again by using Team Epics root from recovery or some any other method you're comfortable with and flash the stock restore again
Or just directly try doing the stock restore once again, but search and make sure the version of ODIN you're using is the most recent
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
Like CNexus said, the stock tar might not have been completely installed, possibly the boot file as that was my case, so try it again. You are free to use your file but the stock tar that I've used previously that worked for me can be found at http://forums.androidcentral.com/sp...-30-2012-sprint-only-unroot-return-stock.html
Thanks for the infos guys im not sure if that was the situation or not... i went back to odin 3.04 so it would fully flash before autobooting and i used the files directly from Samsung and got it working just fine.. it was my hail marry thankfully it worked.
Ok so I have a samsung galaxy s3 att and I have been rooted for the past month or so, no issues. Then, I decide to install a custom rom so I get a stable cm11 and attempt to flash it and it says my cwm version is too low so the reboot my phone so I can update it. The phone starts to boot and gets stuck on the att globe logo with the blue light pulsing. I shut off the phone, pull out the battery and try again, still nothing. I start getting scared so I restore the nandroid backup I made right before this custom rom incident and boot it, still gets stuck at the same place. I really need my phone fixed so can someone help me please??
I was talking to @sd_shadow on another forum earlier and was wondering if he could help me?

Don't panic
Grab the latest version of philz touch recovery https://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/d2lte/
The zips are made to be flashed from a recovery like cwm. Install it using cwm, reboot into recovery and philz should come up. You should be able to proceed with wiping and installing your custom rom at this point.
If the zip doesn't work out for some reason, you could also use Odin to flash a .tar.md5 from that link to update your recovery.
