My Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-T21OR is stuck at the Samsung Logo screen
The device was already rooted with TWRP on it when I got use the hard code to get into TWRP mode. There are no files. when I go to recover or reboot anything it tells me there is NO OS.
So I tried using Download mode with ODIN to re-root the device as well as completely reset the device using the official Samsung firmware from Samsung Mobile. Both give me failure's when trying to root through ODIN.
When using the stock firmware provided by Samsung Mobile the furthest the ODIN process makes it to is KERNAL then goes to failure. Here is a screenshot of the results: http://imgur.com/jmD3pLu
When I try using the custom TWRP root tar md5 filed I get failure stating "There is no PIT Partition
Here is a screenshot: http://imgur.com/V4wjhJW
I am fairly certain the USB port or Cable is not an issue as I have tried several different ones.
Any suggestions on anything else I can do to solve this issue.

I was trying to install cyanogen on my galaxy s2 which is rooted with clockwork mod but after the install finished and I rebooted, it got stuck on the boot screen - the black screen with the words "Samsung Galaxy s2" and the yellow triangle on it.
I can't seem to figure out how to load download/recovery mode via the phone. I know you're supposed to hold down volume down + home + power, but I think it doesn't work on the ATT model since the home key is capacitive so it doesn't register. I got around this to flash clockwork mod by connecting the phone to my computer and using adb. Now that it's stuck on the boot screen, though, the computer won't recognize it so I'm unable to get to recovery and restore my phone.
How do I get my phone back to working order?
I think there is an att sgs2 forum, but your best bet is to get it into download mode since you can't get in recovery.
Edit: try using kies it may help recognizing your phone or try on another computer
I've been through this stage a few times in the last 24hrs as I got to grips with my new S2.
My basic un-bricking solution was to boot the phone in Download mode and use Odin with a suitable "Samsung Official" ROM from www.samfirmware.com. The one I downloaded came with the latest Odin included. It had four *.tar.md5 files and the one which unbricked my phone was called CODE_I9100_blah_blah.tar.md5.

I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 2 i605 that had stock non-rooted 4.1.2. It was running perfectly, etc. I took the Verizon OTA update and now the unit hangs on the "Samsung GALAXY Note II" B&W screen. (took it OTA, not via Odin, etc) In most cases this probably would be an easy fix per the forums but this appears to be a challenging one. Here's what I have tried:
Unit will not boot into recovery, just stays on the "Samsung GALAXY Note II" screen constantly when holding Home, Volume UP, then Power on at a powered off state.
It WILL boot into Odin/recovery mode just fine with the Home, Volume DOWN, then Power at a powered off state.
I have tried rebooting from Odin mode but still hangs.
I have let it set several hours, hang still exists.
I have tried with KIES to use it's recovery but it appears the i605 is not one of the supported models for KIES recovery.
I have installed Odin 3.09 and 3.07 and tried flashing 4.4.2 again (I605VRUFND7), using the correct PIT file to fix partitioning, etc. Both complete successfully with a PASS!/Green block (after 8 minutes). After the auto reboot it still comes up to the "Samsung GALAXY Note II" screen and hangs. Recovery mode still does not work.
Someone recommended to try an older OTA to see if it would work just in case the bootloader didn't get updated due to the failed OTA, etc. Other factory images for the Note 2 will not flash properly. The 4.3's will not even start to flash. The 4.1.2 will flash but comes up with the string error which I have determined by reading online that the bootloader was in fact updated.
I saw where some programmed a cache clearing/data wipe app that can be used with Odin for several other phones but do not see it for the Note II. Be nice to try something like that since I can not get into Recovery to wipe data/cache.
Anything that I'm missing?
Thanks for any help,

I would personally take it to Verizon. Explain what you did, I wouldn't mention flashing with Odin just in case. Tell them you excepted the OTA and now you phone will not boot.. They will more than likely give you a replacement..
The screen was broken and I give it to a friend to change it, but when he fixed the phone lost the configuration. Just start in Samsung logo and restart in a bootloop. Not access to recovery mode, only download mode. Not recognized IMEI or s/n in kies.
I also try kingo and doesn't work, also several room stock for the model and always have two kind of error: secure check boot and secure check pit..
When I tried odin, the phone stopped and the process for flashing not advanced just get stuck. If I used a pit file for the phone have error. So I need help for this.
thanks
Hello, recently my Samsung s3 just shut off instantly and when I tried turning it back on it just remained stuck on the boot screen. It only shows "Samsung galaxy s III GT-I9300" there's no animations or noises after that or before it when you try to boot it up. Then I tried entering recovery mode but that failed, the only thing it can enter is download mode. So i tried to flash a stock ROM via Odin, however this failed. I'm not sure why since im not too familiar with flashing roms, I may have used the wrong stock rom for my phone. I bought this from T-mobile and had it unlocked to all networks, I did root this phone about two years ago, so it has a custom ROM flashed on it previously. If someone can take me through the steps to flash with the correct ROM it would be greatly appreciated. thanks
You don't flash ROM's via Odin in the same way as you do via your phone (CWM, Philz etc).
As I've just experienced the same problem try this.
Get Odin (3.0.4 upwards)
Make sure you have Samsung drivers installed on your PC (can be found by searching this forum)
Put phone in download mode
Start Odin
Goto androidfirmwares.net and download an i9300 ROM (must be a ROM file!!)
Unzip it (7zip, Winzip etc)
press PDA button in Odin. Select the file you just just unzipped (which should end .tar.md5)
Wait for it to check MD5
Click Start
You should then, fingers crossed, have a bootable S3.
From their you can install whatever you please once you have installed CWM or some other recovery.
Hi and please help fellow Samsung users
I have a Samsung Galaxy sg2 GT-I9100
One morning I woke up and my sg2 wouldn’t boot past the Samsung screen.
It won’t go to the recovery mode only download mode
I can only get to download mode
When I connect the phone by usb I get a blue sign in Odin It does show up in Odin in the coms
I have tried to flash it with Odin with 5 stock roms and Odin shows cache and fails every time.
I have removed all traces of kies and rebooted and the usb cable is also fine, I have also tried different versions of Odin to no avail
My question is what can or should I try next?
