You need CWM installed then you remove the bad ROM.. Least that is how I've always done it
Reflash CWM Recovery, download this stock Nandroid and extracted it to your clockworkmod/backup folder then restore it in the CWM Recovery

what did you flash???
thats not a normal booting screen. have you tried to redownload and flash what you were flashing before? did you make a nandroid backup in recovery before you flashed? give us a bit more info please.
Did you make a backup of stock rom??
If yes
Reboot your phone and go to clockworkmod recovery and restore your previous rom
If dont have it ... you need to download the stock rom from anywhere else and copy into your phone
For copying the downloaded rom to your phone ,you can use also the clockworkmod recovery for mounting the sd.!!!

It's okay man we'll try to get you back to normal! Relax, boot loops aren't really a big deal.
Are you running stock 2.3.6 or a custom rom?
If i remember correctly nandroid restores were broken on gb, or was it just kj6(2.3.6) either way, you should be able to get back into recovery and flash the rom again

Can you get back into recovery? (hold vol up vol down and press power) I assume you have cwm recovery? It's red and will say cwm recovery at the top.
If so hit up the dev section and find one of our many awesome custom roms id suggest start with valhalla final by whitehawkx. Download it on your computer.
Now go to "mounts" inside your cwm recovery and select mount usb.
Connect your phone to the computer with your usb, it'll open like usual on your comp.
Put the downloaded zip on your sd.
Now go back to the main screen in your cwm recovery and choose install zip from sd. Choose the zip and it'll flash it. You should be good then!

recovery is not working :/
i hold the buttons just like the way you said (yes, i have cwm)
but it is still stock at "galaxy s 4g,exclusively from t-mobile" screen
but i can get to download thou,
What might get you into recovery is by trying:
shutting the phone down (you might have to remove the battery). Hold down volume up, volume down, & the power button. keep holding them down until you see the "Galaxy S" screen. When that screen gets a bit brighter only let go of the power button. Keep holding the volume buttons down until you see the recovery screen.

I tried searching, but the search is down?
I have spent several hours looking.
I used odin (phone went into download mode without issue) to put my phone back to stock so I could get the ota update.
Went back into download mode with Odin to install CWM, this "passed" and after a restart my phone went into samsung recovery, not CWM.
Now my phone will not go into download mode? I tried different cable, ports, etc.
any help?
so what is it doing since it's not going into download mode.
it wouldn't do anything, I finally reinstalled the drivers and after holding down the power and volume - let go... nothing! push the volume - twice and it went into download mode. Odin recognizes it and goes through the motion, but the phone has a AX_timeout in red at the top left corner of the screen?
Odin continues and say's passed, but when I try to reboot into CWM it hangs on the samsung logo.
It will not boot into recovery, but it will start the phone and everything seems to work.
im using odin 1.83 / windows 7 64bit.
Remove the battery, put the phone in download mode, put the battery back in, and flash CWM. Before you fully boot the OS, flash a custom kernel. If you don't flash a custom kernel, the default kernel will overwrite CWM with the default recovery.

I would try using odin v1.82... My experience with this tool has told me that our charge doesnt always "play nice" with other versions... Also try redownloading the latest CWM, you could of had a bad download.

If you happen to flash a ROM that doesn't include the script that the kernel calls for the overwrite, then you could have ended up with CWM on a stock kernel.

There's a script, can't remember where it's at, that is run at boot to replace the recovery. If that script is not there, it doesn't get replaced. All custom roms have it removed.

There is. You can download the Superuser CWM to your phone, flash CWM, boot immediately to CWM (don't let it boot normally), flash Superuser, and reboot.
At that point, if you desire, you can delete /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and reflash CWM if you want to keep it.

Three finger salute
Hold volume up, volume down and power until you get to the Samsung splash screen then release the power button. You should find yourself in recovery after the kernel splash screen. If it goes into your boot animation, you failed and should do it again.
Edit: I saw that most of your other stuff is with the SGSIII. Do you have a SGS4G that you are doing this on, or did you wonder here by mistake?

Pull the battery first, with the USB unplugged. Put the battery back in, then do the three finger salute. That's what I do when reboot loops happen for me...

yes guys! forget about the s3 sig, i have it also, but i rooted a sgs4g of my friend and installed Ccustom rom, not he had this issue after like 5 months i told him to reflash the ROM and hes in a bootloop, he CANT get into recovery :/, he cant boot only odin!.
If you are doing this via proxy (him actually doing what you tell him) then tell him to get rid of odin and download one of the Heimdall one clicks. If you can get into bootloader mode you can flash a back to stock.
Also If you pull the battery and wait a couple minutes then put it back while holding the three buttons sometimes that will jumpstart recovery mode.
We have an awesome guide on how to get back to stock gingerbread which will allow your friend to flash back to a stock rom if he can get into download mode. Full guide with pictures

Well of he is using odin, this is a better one click for him. You get rooted with a cwm kernel.
