cwm doesnt start/stuck at loading screen after stock flashed - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
yesterday i flashed the latest unofficial temasek rom, before that i had cm 10.2.
at first it worked fine, but afterwards i also flashed the latest gapps.
it lagged a bit so i did a reboot but then it stuck at loading screen. i mean it seemed like it boots but it didnt continue.
i tried to get in cwm and it took about 5 minutes to get there, it said cant mount data etc.
i wanted to flash the normal cm11 but there was an error and then it couldnt start anymore. no blue circle.
after several minutes i got in the cwm and tried to flash different roms, at first custom via cwm, then i tried to flash the stock via odin and
it said it was successfull, but it wasnt. it still stuck at loading but its not frozen, the animation works well.
i tried wipes and factory reset but it didnt help. the only thing that works well is download mode.
its a normal unbranded s3.
thanks for helping

like i already said. the last rom i flashed was a stock rom. but it didnt work..
it still stucks at the animation..

ensure that you wiped all data, cache and factory reset
clean wipe..this step is often omitted during installation.

as i said in my first post if you would have read it i already did this and it is not working!
have you tried updating thru KIES?
which region is your handset from?
and you have already tried using the USB Jig too...right? after reading the POST one
If you belong to XEU, Kies would update the phone to KF3.
After updating the firmware normally the phone gets stuck in the boot screen for 10-15 secs first time around. i hope you are leaving it there for a minute or so.
i tried kies but it didnt recognize the phone.
i also flashed kf3 now but it is still not working. left it on splash screen for about 10 mins or so...
Well for starters a question about failed boot would be better answered in a failed boot thread and you dont mention you have read that post in your OP .
Clean flash
Via CWM recovery mounts and storage format SD card System Data Cache and this will wipe all data .
Factory reset .
Phone will now not boot .
Enter download mode .
Open Odin
Download a stock rom and following instructions connect USB cable and flash .
That fails its a service centre job .
jje
ok jjegan can you plz explain that again so a noob can do it too?
Clean flash
Boot into recovery go to mounts and storage format SD card System Data Cache and this will wipe all data .
Factory reset .
Phone will now not boot no OS .
Enter download mode .
Open Odin
Download a stock rom and following instructions connect USB cable and flash .The same method you used .
jje

Firstly, you did mention that you tried a factory reset, so the third post from JJE has no merit, so instead of assuming we know everything and rushing to answer, we need to determine the conditions under which your phone is no longer booting.
Was the phone working normally?
If it was, what rom was the phone running in the first place, and what did you do (if anything) before it got stuck at the boot logo?
The last post by JJE is "assuming" you have the CWM recovery, I am going to ask you, which recovery do u have, is it the stock recovery or the CWM recovery. if it's the ClockworkMod you would know.
Did you try a normal reboot or did you try flashing something on the phone before you got the bootloop?
yes the phone was working normally. i didn't do anything before it got stuck at boot. The stock rom with t-mobile austria branding was running on it. i can't say the exact version. The phone began to lag during games and browsing so i turned it off and wanted to turn it on again as it got stuck at boot logo.
no i do not have cwm installed so the factory reset and data/cache wipe was done from stock recovery.
after several on/off switches i tried flashing an unbranded stock rom available in this forum. first ke7 then kf3 but the phone still wont boot. also kies is not recognizing the phone.
thanks in advance.
What you want to do is get in into download mode open odin and
download and extract this
http://androidadvices.com/downloads/GalaxyS2_GTI9100_XXKG3_2.3.4.zip
tick repartition
click on PIT and select u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit,
click on PDA and select CODE_I9100XXKG3_CL401405_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5,
click on Phone and select MODEM_I9100XXKG3_REV_02_CL1040774.tar.md5,
click on CSC and select GT-I9100-CSC-MULTI-OXAKG3.tar.md5,
flash it
after all done perfectly reboot to recovery and wipe partition cache
reboot once again and you are done
if this helped reply me
unfortuantly it didnt work out. i did everything as you described but it still got stuck at the boot screen.
i really dont know what to do any more...
Downloaded but asking for password to unzip?
One of the major do not touch is both repartition and pit file especially for a novice .
You have taken the steps in the Boot loop thread post recovery wipe user data . Download mode followed by flash a stock rom that fails flash Villain rom .
Personally i would take the phone to a service centre and claim it stopped working during a Kies update .

[Q] Still stuck at boot loop after following the guide

I followed the guide in the '[READ THIS]' thread and flashed a stock rom (i already tried about 10 different roms), but i still get a boot loop.
As i can enter the recovery and download mode without a problem and there never seems to be an error message after flashing i don't think that there is something wrong with the hardware.
Does anyone have an idea what i could do?
Also i somewhere read that you can fix pretty much any problem by using a riffbox.
Does any of you guys have any experience with that thing/ know if that could probably fix my problem?

Not necessarily.
Similar thing happened to me with KI8.
Was all good on KG1.
Flashed intratechs KI8 all good.
Flashed cfroot for KI8 had to factory reset to get root to work.
All was good at this point.
Flashed siyah 1.8 kernel all good.
CWM backuped.
CWM flashed % battery mod and stuck on Samsung logo at boot.
CWM restore still stuck at Samsung logo at boot.
Tried lots of things to fix but no go.
CWM restore of KG1 and all good again.
Still trying to work out what went wrong and will post the fix when/if I find out.

wel u have a soft brick ma8 dont panic just dwnl a odin flashable stock GB rom and install the same
after that search the forum under samsung gs2 how 2 root ur phone with stock gb fallow the instructions and root ur phone
then select the ics rom like lightening rom and flash thru odin
every thing will be fine
Reading the post, seems like OP did flash a stock file (although ICS, not GB).
2 dumb questions just to confirm. You have the i9100? not the i9100G? Also have you waited a certain amount of time after you flashed those roms? It can take up to a couple minutes for it to first boot.
If above are fine, (you have i9100, and you waited a long time and it was still stuck on i9100 screen)

Factory reset is not required after flashing a rom .
You load rom via Odin it finishes install and then reboots itself .
You load rom via CWM and it goes to reboot screen yes and phone reboots .
As said a stock gb rom flashed via Odin preferably after a format of system data and cache should be your first step .
jje
i did that.

Looks like you have siyah rc6. Make sure it's not from the 21st, iirc.
Don't factory reset just to be safe.. Restore your nandroid if possible and change to a later version.

yup i had siyah 3.1rc6 on my phone.
i tried to restore my nandroid backup but there is no effect on my problem.
how to know weather emmc is fine or currupted?
Try to mount it in CWM and connect it in linux computer and run fsck to check the eMMC. Windows chkdsk is no good.
And please try to remember, did you do this step: flash bad siyah rc6 then wipe/factory reset and get stuck?
if not, then the problem is different from those who flash bad rc6 (which is removed now and siyah is safe)
any thing is not working.
in every thread its written that if my phone goes in download mode and recovery mode then its soft bricked but then how can i unbrick my phone?
or is there any hardware problem?
i can mount and unmount every thing in recovery mode
i can format every thing but only user data cannot be formated,when ever i format/data or factory reset the phone hangs.
is there any other way of hard resetting i9100.?other than cwm recovery?
Have you tried flashing with the .PIT? I doubt it'll work, since other people also tried it, but it's worth a shot.

[Q]URGENT No Booting at all !!!

First I had XXLPQ then I flashed siyah kernel v3.2.8 through CMW, I used it for like a day then everything started crashing so I just rebooted and then I got a bootloop.
I flashed XWLP7 it got stuck at the bootlogo(before animation screen) so I went into recovery mode and then it said "successful csc install (KOR)" something like that then I flashed siyah kernel v3.3.1 though ODIN, now I tried to change the CSC though the menu by using *#272*IMEI No# then it just never booted it just stays at the "Samsung Galaxy S II" the one before the animation screen.
I tried searching i found nothing similar...
I think its a boot loader problem, How do i flash a boot loader ?
pleease help
EDIT: I finally got it into download mode, now can someone please tell me whats the issue ?
bootloaders are roughly half way down 1st post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278

So now it boots past the Galaxy S2 screen? I have experienced that for 2-3 times now, same thing where everything started crashing and rebooting the phone will end up stuck at the bootscreen. What I had to do is to wipe data, dalvik, and cache then only it would work again.
It could be due to the particular ROM used as I have not experienced it after using the newer XWLPD for a few weeks now.

its a siyah kernel v2.3.8 issue where some files get corrupt, so even after flash v3.3.1 some files maybe corrupt also. So a full wipe is advised after backup.
Hoesntly I dont know but I think that its linked to the rom :/.

This is a soft boot due to the fact you still have the ability to access recovery and such what i would suggest you do is get factory files and restore phone back to stock and start over this should fix your problem. If you look around XDA you will find the files you will need ODIN being the main tool you will use to flash your phone.

You have flashed a stock firmware with stock bootloader etc. using odin and still stuck in a soft brick ? remember to wipe the phone a rule of thumb i use is to wipe the phone 3 times before i flash and 3 times after i flash. during the first boot up it may take a little time to boot as it must rebuild the cache. I dont think it is a motherboard issue i think you may have just flashed a wrong file that needs to be wiped out before continuing on. i have had this problem in the past with a galaxy s2 when i was developing custom roms for it. it took me a couple of wipes and factory firmware reflashes but i eventually got the phone back in working order. look here for the factory files you will need to re flash your phone with odin ----> https://samsung-firmware.org/model/SM-G925I/ also make sure you are using the latest version of ODIN you will to put your phone in download mode instead of recovery
Hi, could you fix it ?? I am facing the same issue.
