So i managed to solve the problem that i had.
When i said that i could flash only the stock one, i was flashing XXKI3 as one file after each failed attempt to flash a custom one.
So i tried and flashed another stock rom, again as 1 file. after the flash was done the phone again stucked at first screen wit the triangle.
After that i thought that something was really messed up in the phone and flashed again XXKI3 with PIT and multiple files and offcourse RE-Partition.
After that flash a stock rom with 1 file and modified bootloader from Intratech's thread, this way you can also reset the binary caunter with a jig (can find many on ebay).
After finish flashing and first boot
root with CF kernel and flash any custom rom. It worked as it should. Now i am on a custom rom and trying to see which one suits me best.
Thank Jiganet for some may be needed modified bootloader which is recommended so you can reset binary counter.
Everyone tha nk you for your suggestions and help.
any rom that i install is not getting beyond the bootlogo. i had xxki3 stock with cf-root xxki3 kernel.
every install i make full wipe on everything before(data, cache, dalvik).
any body any idea?
only stock rom working.
The first boot takes some time. Are you waiting that long?

1. Enter Clockworkmod recovery
1a. Do a Backup (not a must, but i suggest) from the cwm recovery of your current rom/settings.
2. Wipe Data/Cache Factory reset
3. Flash the new rom you want
4. Again (not needed but well..) Wipe Data/Cache Factory Reset
5. Wipe Cache
6. Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache (this is why you get bootloops)
7. Reboot to system
Wait 4-5 minutes and you will have your new, shiny working rom.
Hope it helps, cheers
yes. more than 10 minutes.

Mh strange, the strange is.. with the stock rom is working.
Looks like your phone dosnt like the rom you are flashing so the quesion now is:
Are you sure, you are flashing a rom your phone can read? I know the i9100G and the AT&T versions cant be flashed with the standard (i9100) S2 roms (there is a specific thread i think here on xda for those versions)
mine is an unbranded i9100 from Greece. i am flashing the correct roms.

next time when u flash try formatting system.
In CWM >mounts and storage> format system
Please state detailed steps you did when flashing a ROM and what kind of ROM.. That will help alot on trouble shooting your problem.

every body read first post managed to solve this.
Hi was there a solution to this problem as I seem to get it with EVERY rom I try to install from zip?
Hi to all, this is my first Post and this is my First Android I come from an iPhone 2G, iPhone 3g, iPhone 3GS and my last phone was an iPhone 4!!! now I'm extremely happy with my new SGS2!!!
I have been searching a lot!!! for a solution for this flash loop issue,
1 - I have flash to a stock 2.3.5 KI3 samfirmware,
2- then I have Odin>PDA>cf-root-KI3-4.2.tar to root my phone.
3 - After that I downloaded 3 custom roms, DarkyROM2_KI3, VillainROM-3.0.0-signed and Cyanogen cm_galaxys2_full-112. put them on my root internal sdcard.
4 - booted to ClockworkMod Recovery menu.
5 - Wipe Data/Factory Reset
6 - Wipe Partition Cache.
7 - Install Zip from sdcard.
and every thing seems ok, but when i restart, it stays on the boot loop, even if i manage to enter to CWM Recovery menu it says that E: Can't Mount ... bla bla bla
I had been trying to put a custom rom so much that my binary counter is now on 10
I'm going to try what you wrote on the first post!
Restore to stock KI3 firmware using pit file and repartition.
after that install the cf-root kernel. Restart and try to install any custom firmware.
Hope it works
Not it did not work, Maybe the problem was Wipe Partition cache after installing new rom, going to stock and repeating
I'm having this exact same problem, please post here if you find an answer to your problem.
I first installed checkrom with no problems, then i decided to wipe and try install dlevrom but after rebooting i'm left with the same problem as above.
It's only when i flash stock 2.3.5 KI3 through odin with pit, repartition, all checked that my phone works.
I then repeat the steps of flashing cf root through odin and then try flash a custom rom, either checkrom or dlevrom and neither work.
Another try another fail!
I have no idea on what else can I do!!! tried again and nothing! I tied cf-root 4.1 and nothing and cf-root 4.2 and nothing!.
I'm having this exact same problem, please post here if you find an answer to your problem.

After i got the stuck on boot! I can restore to stock by only using the PDA, I don't need to set the pit file again!, but I'm usign all the files on Odin to see If that makes any difference but nothing!!!
I wonder how mariosraptor did it!!!! Can you throw us a light???
I have explained it on first post. Just follow step by step the first post directions.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Nope it didn't work
The steps I did:
1. Restore to stock using PIT, PDA, PHONE, CSC.
2. After it boots root the phone with cf root 4.1 for ki3
3. Use CWM Recovery to flash the new rom on internal sdcard.
I have been doing it with wipe data, wipe cache, wipe develk.
Nothing is there a step that im missing?
Thanks
SOLVED!!!!!! JAJAJA
The only problem, was one minor thing, a little thing called Bootloader!
I installed the old bootloader!
find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
And after that every thing worked perfectly, no boot loops!!!!
Hope it helps!!!
Hi Friends,
Model Number - GT-P7510
I recently rooted and installed the CM9 ICS nightly rom using the noob video instructions (This included rooting with Odin, installing CMW recovery 4.0.0.4, then I flashed the ROM cm-9-20120624 Nightly and finally flashed GAPPS-ics).
I over clocked using the CM9 settings and everything worked perfectly for about a week, it was great. Then it just crashed while I was reading my email and began to bootloop. After reading for similar errors I rebooted to recovery and tried wiped the cache and dalvic cache, I wiped data and factory reset several times but nothing worked, always the same bootloop. I re flashed the same ROM and still nothing, after a while the boot screen would simply freeze instead of bootloop.
Then I connected to my PC, and did this to no avail. In fact it simply added to the problem by adding a yellow warning triangle while attempting to boot so I did the Oden thing again like the first time I rooted however I installed CMW version 5.5.0.4 instead thinking it might help but it hasn't.
One last point, when I attempt to wipe data/factory reset the tablet seems to freeze and attempt to reboot rather than say something like "success" as it would during a cache wipe. This maybe normal or it maybe the problem! who knows?
On that point, I would be very grateful if some of you could help get me to the point when my PC recognises the tablet so I can reflash a new ROM.
Thanks in advance,
Karl
I once got the same problem. The only thing that helped was to flash back the stock rom via Odin with the pit file. And don't forget to do a hard reset after flashing the rom. I'll just stick to the stock rom until the official update is getting released.
Sent from my GT-P7501 using xda app-developers app
Questions go in the Q&A section
I think the best way is still to do factory reset, go back to the stock ROM first and try custom HC ROM until the official ICS is released.
as mentioned above help me
im desperate, i have flshed a dozens stock roms, factory restored, wiped cache, wiped dalvic cache and still when i flash stock rom via odin i get the bootloop . help me plz i have searched everything on this forum and nothing seems to work.

wipe everything, even format /system.
What model is your galaxy gio?
flash that model type only, not another model number.
Try flashing cm7.
Can you get into recovery?

Pretty old thread.. you should make your own to get more help i think.
Can you get into the recovery mode that you flashed? If so, do a full wipe trough recovery mode.
Most of the time you can fix your phone by flashing a new fresh rom onto your device.
Correct me if i'm wrong please. Fixed my own phone by flashing a new rom, worked out pretty good
Goodluck!
Hey all,
I bought my phone back in USA (i9300) and I decided to flash my carrier's latest ROM (ELL6) so I downloaded it and flashed away with odin.
Everything went great, except that my phone is now bootlopping between carrier's bootanim and samsung's. I already tried to flash it again.
I was coming from CM10.1 official and had recovery 6.0.2.8.
What can I do to fix this?
thanks!
ok nevermind, fixed it by going to stock recovery (volup+home+pwr) and wiping data / factory defaults.

wipe data a factory reset, if that doesn't work then reflash rom again.
If still doesn't work format system, data and cache and reflash then factory reset.
thanks. It worked.
Not sure if it was odin stock or wipe data that deleted all my personal files on the internal card... grrr. This is my 3rd galaxy phone, and it's the first time I ever go back from custom to stock ROM. Didn't know I was about to lose my pictures and mp3.
was stuck on the same problem on a gs2, backup all and wipe away
I searched the internet and threads on XDA for this problem but couldn't really find one!
The problem is- My Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) doesn't boot any AOSP/AOKP/CM ROMs! It's just the bootanimation and DONE! For hours and hours the bootanimation only! But I can flash any Sammy 4.3 / 4.4 ROMs! They boot! They work properly!
I used to change to AOSP to Sammy and vice versa so many times with no issues. One day I downloaded the UltimaAOSP Valhalla ROM and flashed it. This was the first time my S3 didn't boot. I flashed custom Kernels like boeffla on it but all in vain. It was stuck on the bootanimation. I flashed NeatROM AOSP on top of it, which worked properly. Then it was with the fusion sp ROM that it didn't boot again. Again I flashed NeatROM AOSP on top of it (it's my favorite ROM), which I used just to copy some other ROM from my PC to my phone.
Now, I'm on my Stock ROM which came with my phone since so long! I'm shocked to see now NO AOSP ROMs are booting! I've used C-ROM, NeatROM, Resurrection Remix and SOKP Milestone. I have the ROMs' ZIP files and also a Nandroid Backup which I made when I changed to other ROMs. Not the ZIP files neither the Nandroid Backups are helping! ZIP files get flashed succesfully (I wipe the data & cache & dalvik-cache every time) and the Nandroid Backups get restored successfully! But always the phone gets stuck on the bootanimation!
I always moved to AOSP from Sammy (never Sammy to Sammy) but this time I gave it a shot.
Result : All the Samsung ROMs are flashing, working properly, even the Nandroid restores boot. I flashed my newly downloaded FlashingDroid Sammy 4.4 ROM which also works.
BUT I CAN'T GET THE AOSP ROMs onto my phone!
My thought (it could be wrong) : Is it to do something with the data in a partition other than system, data, and cache? Some partition which has stored files needed to boot Sammy ROMs and is preventing AOSP ROMs to start?
HELP!
:crying:
MORE UPDATED INFO ON POST #6
::ROBLEM SOLVED:::

Update - Got More Info
Update : Just noticed that when it's the bootanimation on the screen after flashing an AOSP ROM, pressing any of the buttons on the phone vibrates the phone vigorously 2 times.. why??
Also, I want to ask about the connection between a kernel and a bootanimation without starting a new thread 'cause I think it's the solution to my problem here.. The data which I probably suspect that prevents AOSP ROMs from booting is some different bootanimation file? I mean when I'm on a Sammy ROM, I started to flash different bootanimations after flashing some CWM Custom Bootanimation ZIP file. The bootanimation changes on all Kernels on Sammy ROMs -except 1 that is the boeffla kernel. The strange thing is that the first custom bootanimation I had flashed (after flashing Boeffla's Sammy Kernel) when I switched to Sammy from my last AOSP was the hTC One Bootanimation which worked fine (the bootanimation successfully changed). After that, it never changed. My phone always booted up showing the hTC One Bootanimation no matter how many times I flashed another bootanimation ZIP or the CWM ZIPs which enable/disable Custom bootanimations. But! When I changed to any other kernel (the stock that came with the ROM/GoogyMax 2/AGNi), the bootanimation was the last one flashed by me before changing the kernel. I could change the bootanimations successfuly every time after that. Now, I flashed Android Revolution HD ROM and was on Stock Kernel. As soon as I changed to boeffla kernel (without flashing any other ZIP), the bootanimation changed! (automatically!) And it was again the same old hTC One Bootanimation.
Can someone please tell me WHERE is this bootanimation data and the data that prevents AOSP ROMs to boot is stored? Certainly not in the data or system or cache partition...
Update 2 : Just figured out where the automatic htc bootanimation magic happened. The hTC bootanimation.zip file was found in data/local . However, I always knew the bootanimation directory as system/media.. So now, is it safe for me to delete all files in data/local 'cause it seems it is the problem for AOSP ROMs?

Thank you for your post.
I am having the same problem, phone not booting past boot animations using aosp ROMs. Haven't tried Sammy ROM to test the theory yet but will try soon.
How do you wipe preload? In mounts and storage, I get an error when trying to mount or format preload using CWM 6.0.4.7
I don't see an option to wipe anything other than data, cache, or dalvic.

Strange- it happened that day but not now. Even I get an error formatting preload. But! I guess the problem is the system partition! There IS an option to format /system in mounts and storage option on the first screen.

I have the exact same issue.
My device: Grand Prime (G530FXXU1AOJI baseband)
Stock android: 5.0.2
Recovery: TWRP 3.1.0.0
I have booted many Samsung roms and also ported many of them like J5's 5.1.1 , On7's 5.1.1 rom and many other 5.1.1 and 5.0.2 roms and all of them work perfectly. But when it comes to AOSP ROMS each of them keeps loading at the booting animation screen. Ive tried many roms like RR, AOSP Extended, Cyanogenmod, LINEAGEOS, All of these 5.1.1 , 7.1.1.
It booted for others with the exact Same variant as mine too.
Please help me?

Well, what you did was butter than a factory reset.
Factory reset means wiping data, cache and dalvik cache.
I would like you to do something first, try downloading the latest stock firmware for your phone from sammobile, and then flash it with Odin, then try flash AOSP roms again, maybe you have an old bootloader.

Are you sure it's the latest one?
Did you check Sammobile.com?
The latest one was released in 1st Feb 2017.
Also please check the IMEI of your phone by typing *#06#, because if you've a problem with efs partition you may not be able to flash any AOSP Rom (happened to a friend before..he had sim working without IMEI!!)
Also what is your country code?
As stated above, check your imei is still OK then from a working stock state:
Root it.
Flash custom recovery.
Flash the custom rom twice and then wipe data/cache. Do not wipe system!.
If that doesn't work then try the above but instead of wipe data/cache do a factory reset.
