Let me understand 100%....
If you have battery pulled and then cannot boot into recovery or download mode. Correct ?
But you can power on, but stuck on the boot screen. Correct ?
If this is both correct, maybe your boot partition is corrupted and without download mode or recovery the only hope is the USB jig to force it to boot into download mode and then you can flash official firmware with Odin.

BOTH right ,I can get into download or recovery mode when power on , but stuck on the boot screen. When I charge it , the battery logo isn't appear.
what should I do??
Please explain what exactly steps you were doing that lead to your situation. Maybe others will have another idea.
Try the USB jig to force your phone into download mode and flash firmware with Odin as previously suggested.
If the jig doesn't work. You're bricked and only a JTag or Samsung service center can now help.

I FLASHED the offical room found in firmware.COM ,after that , it reboot and get into the recovery mode itself.
Excellent, seems we misunderstood each other , otherwise you would not have been able to flash anything.
Now. Just flash root kernel (with cwm included) and you'll be good to flash your favorite rom.
Don't forget to full wipe before the rom flash (system.data.cache.dalvik) and you will be trouble free. First boot will take a while so be patient.

then your flashing did not do anything?
dont do factory reset, first try wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache? then try reboot.
if unsuccessfull pick an official ICS rom from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544487 and flash from ODIN, and root
(pull battery, put back, vol-down+home+Power then vol-up to get download mod)

Nothing to panic about, first of all, FLASH A STOCK FIRMWARE..and it will boot into the recovery showing loads of errors, well the problem has not been solved,clearly..
Now, Flash a Stock Kernel Via ODIN..Or a CF-Root kernel as suggested by one of the users! Also,if u still face problems, In the Question & Answer Section of the Forum For SGS2,u will find :

Try flashing a custom root ROM such as Litening ROM v2.6. You can flash .tar directly with Odin. It will install CWM Recovery and siyahkernel. Give it time to first boot maybe 5 minutes ... be patient

After., update to the latest ICS siyahkernel with custom cwm recovery here

I've tried flashing recovery via Odin and CWM Recovery and it will reboot into recovery just fine. However, when I let it reboot into android, turn it off, and then go back into recovery, CWM is gone. The phone, however, stays rooted.
Any idea what could be wrong or how to fix this?
Secondly, if I can get into CWM immediately after flashing, is it safe to flash a new ROM at that point or do I need to get CWM to stick first?
Anyone? Any suggestions at all will be appreciated

Sure... You can flash a rom immediately following the flash of cwm.... Did you also install busy box?
Which cwm are you trying to use? 5.8.4.7 seems to do me good....?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Before your phone boots after installing cwm in Odin do a battery pull then boot into recovery （Volume Up+Home+power) then flash your superuser/root package. It will stick then.

I tried using that CWM version as well as an older one. Both work and I can get busy box and superuser installed once it boots up. But when I power down and try to go back into recovery, CWM is gone. I do get to keep root though.

I tried unchecking the auto-reboot button on Odin 4 and 7, and going that route. Both allow me to get into CWM, where I try to flash the recovery v5.zip. Still doesn't stick unfortunately.
My flash counter is up to about 10 now, trying to get CWM to stick..

Thanks everyone. I used CWM toolkit, reflashed the stock recovery, then used odin 3.07 to re-flash CWM 5.5.0.4 and it stuck.
First off I know I shouldn't have done this before I was sure what I was doing, but I have done it.
I have used chainfires mobile odin pro to flash siyah's latest kernel to my rooted s3. i put the .tar on external sd. Opened mobile odin, opened file, and pressed flash. It said it's dangerous, I pressed continue and the phone immediatly rebooted, and is now stuck on boot loop.
I had never updated the phone from when it first came out, I just rooted and kept stock rom.
Any help much appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
Try to boot into download mode if this works you can flash a stock or custom Rom and kernel through Odin ans it should fix your problem.
Or try to boot into recovery and flash a custom Rom, either way should fix the bootloop.

Currently in download mode, going to try to install the latest kernel. Do you think that should work, or should I install custom rom?

I would say you just need to flash the kernel if that's all you changed, the Rom should be fine.

If you have the stock Rom flash it via Odin.
Cwm sometimes mounts the external sd card but sometimes doesn't.. don't know how it is for others but it isn't working properly for me.
Go to mount and storage in Cwm for mounting sdcard.

I removed the battery because it was not charging and I thought I won't can flash any rom with the battery low,so I will seek more advices before turning it back on,so..
Wipe removed all my files,including stock rom,but I don't know if volume down + power + home button will work.Well I went into choose zip from sdcard and they all were there,I ran super wipe as it was said in the flash tutorial and it deleted almost everything,I am stuck into recovery and I cannot enter sdcard because there are no files anymore,such as the rom needed to be flashed.
If I mount sdcard n the mount and storage in cwm will windows explorer be able to put the rom back there? So i can flash it with.
update: volume down+home+power works perfectly,should I flash the rom with odin directly? the sdcard is empty too.

If you can get into download mode then you should easily be able to flash via Odin.
Do a search in the forum because there are many guides about flashing through Odin.

I will flash stock rom then I will try again to do android revolution hd 2.2.0 ( the step I missed is about creating a virtual ssd )
I will come with an update if the flash stock rom through odin works.
Checkrom comes in two versions,one is Odin flashable,flash that.then u are rooted after flashing
Next time u use superwipe remember to move the rom to EXTERNAL SD-card ,because internal SD-card is wiped.
Weird..odin exits after a while it says Please wait then it quits,while trying to flash stock rom,what's the problem?
I found a way to put the rom back there,but it is in sdcard,and I cannot enter it ( cannot mount )
How can I solve this from the recovery mode? I am still stuck in recovery mode or download mode..and the rom is on the card now,but cannot access to flash it with cwm
Why do not you just boot?
Previous rom is there but wiped and restored.
I do not think that superwipe was made to empty system from the rom.

The rom had to be put on a virtual/external sdcard,but because I didn't read carefully I put it on sdcard aslong with superwipe,so after I launched superwipe it deleted the sdcard files and the stock OS too,so it just says samsung galaxy siii like before it boots,but it stays that way..
I don't know how to get into the sdcard,cwm recovery says it cannot mount it,sdcard contains my rom,and because I cannot access it,I cannot flash it..I need a way to help cwm to mount sdcard,so I can flash it from there..
Otherwise I tried flashing stock rom but odin crashes,like I press start,then it says check md5 then Please wait,it gets stuck and quits..
Which recovery do you have? Is it the touch cwm?
Flash 5.5.0.4 1.5 from chainfire. Make sure when running odin nothing from kies is running in the background and make sure you do not tick re-partition.

It is not touch cwm..it is a normal cwm from what I have seen.
Can you give me the exact version ( including link )to flash with odin? I think it does not charge and I always get off the battery from it when I try something new and it does not work.

Then i need to tell you that you must flash through Odin a full rom then reroot and then flash again a custom rom of your choice.
Just make sure every time you flash with Odin nothing from Kies runs in the background. Otherwise Odin flash will fail or stuck.
Edit: Please remember and NOT TICK REPARTITION.

Its checking md5, that takes a few minutes.
Boot into download mode (volume down+home+power, press up when it says are you sure) then flash via Odin.
Its simple.

But, the 2nd boot to recovery it returned to it's Original Recovery. :crying:
So, every time I wanted to flash something, I needed to re-flash another CWM using Odin over and over again just to boot from CWM. Is there any fix?
