I tried ODIN and successfully got it back to stock rom. But the phone keeps looping back to the Vibrant logo screen. The method I used worked for me for the past three years, it started acting weird when all of a sudden an ICS custom rom from MIUI hanged on me. And then I was unable to get my phone working!
Is my phone permanently bricked?!

Can you get into recovery? Did you flash a custom gb boot loader? You wipe data and cache? You could try Odin again and flash stock with the correct pit file and re partition checked I've done this many times and have not had this problem you might just have had a corrupt flash like I've read Odin has been known to fail

Hi there.
I had a custom rom on my Galaxy S3, and I wanted to go back to stock rom. Before I had a custom rom, I checked my product code, just in case if I ever wanted to flash stock rom. So, I downloaded a stock rom from sammobile and flashed it with Odin. I had a successful flash, but when the phone rebooted, it stopped at the samsung logo and it's like that every time I turn on the phone.
I aslo tried to flash it with the same rom, but from a different site (androidfirmwares), but every time I treid to do that, Odin crashed ( Odin downloader has stopped working).
I can't even boot into CWR to flash any custom rom, cuz it's gone. There is only stock recovery.
Please help
Which Rom were you trying to flash when this happened, and give details of how you flashed please

if you are getting stuck on the boot screen after you flashed the stock rom this always works..go to recovery do a data reset and wipe cache.
this is really weird and a stupid thing I did when I was completely new to android..a little over a month ago.I got stuck on the boot screen and accidentally flash CF-Root instead of the stock firmware..when the phone rebooted it worked just fine.I dont think its supposed to work that way..:S

Thank you :good:
Hi I have done something silly in the flashing process and now the phone wont get past the Samsung logo and is stuck in boot. I can get to Recovery and Download mode. Have tried flashing stock ROM twice but still the same result.
Here is what happened
1) Flashed Stock 4.1.2 XELLA ROM - Through ODIN - was successful, used it for 2 days
2) Due to battery drain issues did a Factory reset and Reflashed XELL4 Stock ROM through ODIN
3) Phone got stuck in boot screen on Samsung logo so reflashed the XELLA firmware again but its still Stuck
Each time the ODIN gave a successful flash but the phone does not get past the Samsung Logo
Dont know what to do it looks like something got screwed up perhaps due to the new bootloader in XELLA which has messed up the process???:crying:
Device I9300, UK version from Carphone warehouse
Will it help if I try the emergency firmware recovery on should i send the device to Samsung as its stll covered under warranty (Have only flashed Stock RoM and not rooted)

Not an expert, but would a full root be able to fix this?

The jelly bean domination, for samsung galaxy sprint note 3 n900p
phone boots to samsung....then freezes and reboots. Sometimes it loads past it, but message pops up saying system crashed close it or wait and then it reboots its self few seconds after that. And it is a nonstop rebooting at samsung logo
now i made it wrose, i deleted the nand through odin mode and it says could not do normal boot and just loads into odin mode
and then did solution, downloaded offcial sprint rom from that website that took 4 hours, added the md5 file and flashed with odin, and it came back to life
You sure you got a Rom for Sprint variant?

twrp is highly recommended. the way to fix your phone is to odin it back to stock before your phone boots...put your phone into STOCK recovery and wipe it...wipe everything which will get rid of the custom tag...put the phone in download mode and odin it back to stock a second time. reroot your phone and then odin in twrp..flash the new rom you want in twrp the phone should make it to the yellow screen with a semiblinking blue light and then it should boot within 5min
what happened was....i downloaded a rom for the model n9005 and it loaded on my phone no problem, only problem was their was no wifi and no mobile internet...then i tried restoreing the stock i backed up, and that created a bootloop. Then i found only for like the s4 they selected the delete nand option on odin and i did that 2....and then my phone couldnt normal boot went into odion mode right away. After downloading stock all night everything got fixed in 20 mins, then got home after work and put the jelly bean domination rom no problem
Hello
I recently recieved my sisters old galaxy s2 after it had been water damaged and the only problem was the power button not functioning.
I wanted to flash a stock 4.1.2 rom via odin and since this was my first time flashing an S2 I followed a tutorial showing me how to flash a stock rom.
Everything went well during the flash but after it completed it bootlooped forever and ever. I tried flashing the same ROM again and the same bootloop. I also tried other ROMs and nothing worked. People have fixed their odin bootloops by entering recovery and wiping everything but I just don't know how to enter recovery without a power button.
Any suggestions?
Hi,
I have the 925f. I was in a custom rom but had some issues in my phone (7.0 A8 port), so I decided to flash back to stock through ODIN. After flashing G925FXXU5ERA4 it was stuck almost 30 min in samsung logo. Then I went back to DL mode and tried again with the same result. I also tried flashing G925FXXU5EQFC but again it was stuck. I did this several times.
Am I lacking something? Any help will be appreciated.

If it's stuck in Samsung logo just leave it longer, the first boot can take quite a while
Thanks callumbr1!
It was almost an hour and it didn't passed the logo (I tried two stock roms through ODIN). I solved it by flashing twrp wiping system and a rom through a zip file.
