I have a rooted S5 G900T, with PhilzTouch CWM and a stock 5.0.1 rom. I decided to update to 5.1.1 yesterday. I couldn't do the OTA update, so I used Kies. The update worked, except the phone and mobile data wouldn't work. No problem, I thought--I made a nandroid backup before I did anything. I reflashed Philz Touch CWM using Odin, rebooted into recovery, and restored from my nandroid backup. Everything appeared to work successfully.
But now, it's just sitting on the white boot screen. I get the T-Mobile jingle boot sound, and then nothing.
Solutions?
Thanks
problem solved. Reflashed firmware.

I was playing around in SetCPU and turned the values a little too high, and then it wouldn't stay on because I had it set to boot at startup...
I wasn't too worried because I had JUST made a backup through CWM and figured I would just restore. So I did
CWM Says everything worked correctly, however, now it only boots into recovery.
Insight?
EDIT:
Turned out I was using a CWM 5.xx and I used Odin to reflash the 4.x. It appeared to not restore with 4.x, but now it boots fine
I would Odin back to stock then Odin the CWM recovery you had then restore backed up Rom.
Or just start over and flash up to the rom you had from stock
I have an AT&T Galaxy S3. I rooted it a while ago and have been using CM10 on it.
I wanted to unlock the phone so to get it back to factory I mistakenly restored from a backup I had of the factory phone (I'm guessing this was wrong now).
The restore finished and I rebooted the phone but now it sits at the Samsung Galaxy SIII boot screen. I tried booting back to Clockworkmod Recovery to restore from my newer backup but it just goes back to the splash screen and sits.
I was able to get it into Download mode and seemed to be recognized by Odin. I'm just not sure where to go from there. I would be fine with it being on CM10 or factory again.
Any help would be awesome!

Well after backup go to the official recovery and just wipe cache and data and restart it should work if not download official firmware flash it with odin and if again it gets stuck at samsung bootscreen go again to stock recovery and just wipe everything I think there were two rows starting With the word wipe...other and See if it works...
I have CWM installed and downgraded from JB to ICS stock (one of the rooted recoveries). I received an update notice to v20h and I chose to install it and now the phone only boots to recovery. I tried to restore one of the previous backups but it still only boots to recovery.
What should I do?
Hey guys,
I recently flashed a new 4.3 rom to my S3 (Imperium 21.0).
After a while i decided to update the kernel to Googy Max, downloaded it from OTA and went to install it via TWRP, after installing the galaxy decided it wouldn't boot and just returned to the recovery all the time, i thought it must be the broken kernel and re-flashed the rom, everything was fine until i went back to the recovery (to backup the rom), after i finished backup and tried to restart my S3 the same happens, the galaxy just reboots back to the recovery, and the only way i found to get of it is to re-flash the rom :/
I don't want to re-flash it again... Any ideas what can i do?

Can close thread, after installing another recovery via Odin it was fixed
So I've got this issue I never had before.
It started happening after I screwed something up with the EFS I think.
I was flashing some custom roms after the 4.3 official update and then tried to go back to 4.1 official.
Had the no network problem, but fixed it flashing the vodafone stock 4.3 official again.
Reading all the stuff about EFS confused me, and I deleted the EFS folder and copied an old backup (or so I think, because I'm not sure. I had a EFS backup on my sdcard and extsd I think).
I no longer have the no network issue, but everytime I flash a stock rom through Odin the phone gets stuck at the samsung logo, so I have to root the phone and install TWRP using Odin and then wipe. I know this way fixes this, but what I'm looking for is to fixed the problem completely so I don't have to install a custom recovery or root after using Odin to go back to official samsung rom.
Any ideas?
What should I do?
Maybe the phone gets stuck at the samsung logo because all of this EFS thing, but, like I said, I no longer have the no network issue.
All I want is for the phone to boot normally into the setup after flashing a samsung rom using Odin.
It just gets stuck every single time since I had this problem with the EFS, when before this never happened.
try to install the rom in recovery mode

I had this problem before (flash 4.1.2 in current 4.2.2 by odin), here's my solution.
Maybe you can install your ROM in recovery mode. (CWM based)
Remember to wipe completely before installing

I can flash custom roms through TWRP, but what I'm looking for is to be able to do so again through Odin without ending up stuck at boot always and having to wipe through TWRP to be able to boot properly.
Any ideas?
I'm sure there must be a fix so I don't get stuck at the boot screen after flashing a samsung rom with Odin.
I know the trick wipe factory reset but what I really want is to simply avoid getting stuck at the boot screen after flashing a samsung rom with Odin.

Factory reset is also available in default recovery as well, then what is the issue? Flash then boot to recovery do factory reset.

Thanks.
I'm just trying to find out why my SGS3 now gets stuck at boot when before it never happened.
I'm hoping there's a way to fix it and go back to before, when it never got stuck at boot. There should be a way I guess.
