Looks like a software brick.Just download firmware file and flash through Odin OR
Simply download TWRP Odin flashable Recovery and flash using Odin and then flash your favorite Custom Rom.

If you can get into recovery you can wipe/factory reset and that should get you past boot loop. your other option is to flash stock via Odin.

You can enter download mode and reflash stock image with Odin. If you were running the stock rom you may not lose your data. Let me know if you don't know how to do this and I will direct you. It seems that something has become corrupted, but Odin will fix that

After flashing Odin you should have access to the 3e recovery. Unless something is wrong with your hardware (Volume broken?), I can not see why you would not be able to enter recovery.
You can also try this tool to boot a custom kernel with recovery attached. Here is a forum with a similar problem. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2011636&highlight=i9300
Here is the tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1746665
All of this is done through download mode.

it also says recovery booting when i attempt to boot into recovery mode but it goes directly to the s3 logo

You can download an Odin flashable recovery from here. http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/d2att. you will want the .tar file.
Beyond this i'm running out of ideas. Not too sure if this will work if you have gone stock with Odin as it may have taken root from you. Worth a try though.
Maybe an emergency recovery through Kies... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1984717
Beyond that try Odin again and re download the stock Rom from a different source. You may have gotten a bad download. I have read of it happening. Maybe even an older firmware or Canadian one (i'm assuming you're ATT): http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-I747

i've tried both those methods but it still hasn't solved the problem. i'm going to try to flash ics. hopefully something good happens; i don't want to have to pay to get it fixed.

[Q] flashed stock image using ODIN, stuck at boot at "Samsung". assistance requested

[Q] flashed stock image using ODIN, stuck at boot at "Samsung". assistance requested
My wife's phone T989 stopped working during the week previously running one of the custom ROMs for Jedi Mind Trick. Unable to put or enter custom recovery i have restarted the phone to put into download mode, run Odin 3.07 and flashed factory stock image for the phone. Odin recognizes the phone, and completes the flash successfully. phone reboots but always stuck at samsung screen (just the letters, not the animation). the previous ways to get phone into download mode (power + volume buttons do not work), however, i can get it into download mode but doing volume and usb connection on power up. Odin still sees the phone fine and allows me to reflash factory image.
Any hints of where to look at next? is locating proper PIT file my next setp?
Thank you for your help
if it helps, here is what I see in the download mode

Thank you. no luck so far. I used ODIN 1.85 to flush stock image. everything worked without error, phone restart and is stuck at the same Samsung screen it was stuck before (waited for 1.5 hours to confirm).
The image i am trying to flush T989UVLE1_T989TMBLE1_T989UVLE1_HOME.tar.md5
My next attempt would be to flash T989UVMC6_T989TMB_T989UVMC6_HOME.tar.md5 images.
Any other thoughts?
Got it to work
If it would help anyone - used ODIN 3.07 and T989UVMC6_T989TMB_T989UVMC6_HOME.tar.md5 , flashed but did not wait for the phone to finish reboot. entered recovery, flashed system data to remove boot loop and got the phone to finish booting.
Thanks to all who helped!

A fresh flash from a stock ROM may be the only solution for now. Have you try that yet?

Hello Matthew, I have a Singapore GT-N7105 too! *High-five* as the previous post said, you can only flash stock ROM to save you.
1) download this file. It's gonna take a long time. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=12428
2) flash that file through ODIN.
3) reboot.
Should work.

What do you mean by factory mode? Does it boot to system (normal launcher)? And what ver. and type of recovery did you try to flash? What was the last firmware/OS did you used before this happen?
Try look up for USB jig thread.

Yes it boot into launcher, it's working fine. I tried Twrp using flashify I think that's where the error comes from. I'm using the stock firmware. 4.1.2

Help me. My SM-T705 Super Brick

how to fix it. now i can't boot to recovery mode and boot to download mode only. Please hele me step by step, Thanks
Same problem with my AT&T SM-T707. Help!
When you're booting into download mode, just press volume down to restart the tablet. Then you need to be quick: before the boot screen appears you need to press Power + Volume up + Home to boot into recovery. If it does not work the first time, just try again.
Best, maris
First, superbrick was only a term used during an EMMC bug for the S2 and Note.
second, you can use Odin to reflash the stock firmware. As long as you can access Download mode, it's an easy fix.

This may seem too simple, but have you tried using a different USB cable/USB port? NO USB HUBS.
Odin is VERY sensitive to ports/cables.
