So, I am running MIUI, which has problems with tethering. I decided to go for the latest value pack released by samsung. As said in the thread, I repartitioned my phone, using latona.pit. Now, I was supposed to reboot and go back to download mode to install any xxkpe rom, to continue with flashing. But, my phone just show a black screen, with no info. Download mode is not working. Odin does not detect the phone either.
Any suggestions? I am trying to reflash the pit file, again to make sure, and scouring over the forums, in the meantime. Let me know, if I am missing something.

Did that. Wasn't working for a couple times, panicked, and posted here. Thought, it might have something to do with that value pack itself, so posted there too. Didn't know, two posts counted as spamming. What a way to encourage participation. Thanks a lot.
Update on issue:
Tried taking out battery and reinserting everything. Multiple restarts, and somehow got odin to detect it. Still no screen for download mode. Tried flashing the firmware, and is stuck in a boot loop now. What next?

Volume Down + Home Key + Power to get to download mode.
I use Odin to flash. I have 3.0 version, which shows blue icon on the com port, the phone is connected to, instead of yellow from older versions. To flash pit, I used the button saying pit to select pit file. Default options, that have auto-reboot, and F. Reset Time enabled. Everything else, is disabled.
Same method for flashing firmware. Only thing, I select pda option instead of pit, while selecting the file. Odin says, pass for both times, that is flashing with pit, and flashing with actual rom.
There is no download screen, one that says "Downloading target", or something like that. Earlier, it was not even getting detected in Odin, which is solved after multiple reboot. After flashing rom, it gets stuck in boot loop.
Not sure, if I should change any option in Odin, so I haven't tried that.
I've encountered such an issue with a couple of ROMs that i tried on my other device(mi-280).
Try flashing the ROM twice then try to reboot. I did clear cache and dalvik cache between 2 flashes(not sure why). Worked for me.

Phone is stuck in boot loop, so can't clear any cache. Rom is stock, so there is no CWM recovery mode. Flashing twice is good idea. Will try it out and post result soon. Also, downloading another rom. This hotfile uploading is a bit of a hit-and-miss for me, as power cuts are way too frequent here. It is possible that rom might be faulty.
Edit:
Same result. Still stuck in boot loop. Flashing twice didn't worked.
Its better to flash xxkpe firmware twice & check whether phone boot properly or not. If everything goes well then flash ddlf2 stock rom.

Downloading the same. Power cut for 3 hours made me stop it earlier. I had xxkpq earlier, which is not working. I thought xxkpq was also an official release, so it should have worked.

I just got a new Verizon S3 about a week ago and a few days ago I followed the instructions in the Original development section to install the CM10 nighties. Everything was working great but just a little bit ago I tried to upgrade to the newest build through the clockworkmod rom manager that was installed with cm10 but now when I restart the phone just constantly boot loops. It shows the samsung screen followed by samsung screen (but with booting recovery at the top) and finally the android dude for a few secs then just repeats! How do I fix my phone! Or did I F**K myself good?

Can you get into recovery (volume up + home + power) to try flashing a previous rom download or restore a backup? If that doesn't work, you'll probably need to Odin your way back to stock or stock.root66 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709)

Ok I was able to get into recovery. I tried restoring a backup but that did not help I am now going to try and re install the downloaded rom. I might just odin back to stock I don't know if my nerves can handle the stress of this mod thing.
I tried installing from downloaded rom and that did not work ether. I down loaded the odin and the Samsung drivers but the drivers don't seem to be installing right. The phone shows up under devices and printers but has an ! on it. I tried telling it to update the driver by had but I got this error:
Code:
Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it

This device cannot start (Code 10)
I have the device booted in to recovery ClockworkMod Recovery because thats the only place I can get it with out it continually restarting. (I thought that the Recovery I had was called K-exec or somthing? It looks the same I think though so I am not sure. Is that what broke my system did I break somthing my flashing ClockWorkMod recovery over K-exec? Can I fix that from clockWorkMod Recovery. HELP

actually download mode is hold volume down +home (button on the front in center) + power till the screen shows download mode

Upgrade your recovery from cwm touch to cwm 6.whatever.it.is. Cwm touch is buggy. I don't know how exactly you do that if it's not booting to the rom but maybe this can help point you down the right path.

Downside of all the one click this and one click that. You should be required to root at least once using odin and adb before having access to the one click tools as you may end up needing those down the road.

If you really don't wanna take the risk you can just delete it all with Titanium Backup. But hey, if you really want to, go right ahead. Just do a little more research before you jump in. We've all been there, though, so don't feel stupid.

try this
1)Open the back over
2)Check between the Camera Lens and the speaker
3) There is a hard reset button which is a small cavity
4) You will need two people for this.. Keep that cavity pressed with a pin
5) Keeping it pressed use the download mode combo- Volume down + Home + Power pressed.
6)Wait and try it a couple of times and your phone will enter download mode
7)Flash to a stock firmware (credits to Adi_Pat for this guide)

Hello All,
I'm kinda stuck here and I think I have read and tried everything. Wondering if this thing is bricked. Signs tell me know, but don't know what else to do. Anyway here is some info. My note n8013 has a Redemption rom which I have had for a couple of months with no problems. Sorry don't remember the version. Either way I come home one day and its stuck on the boot animation screen. So i reboot it and it has the normal samsung boot screen, then it gets to the rom animation screen and gets stuck again. I cannot get pass this screen at all. Next I try to boot into TWRP so that I can restore to a previous backup. As I hold the power and volume up and reboot I then let go on power and keep holding volume up, then I get to see the TWRP logo, it disappears and reboots. So I am unable to get into TWRP. So then I go into download mode which seems to get there fine, but no matter what I try to flash with odin it fails. I have the same version odin v1.85 and drivers I had when I first started messing with this. I then try all the new versions still no go. I have tried to get the latest TWRP and CWM with odin. Nothing. I have also tried a compatible rom and nothing. Many thanks in advance.

I think it makes sense for me to brick this some how and maybe get a warranty swap. I've only had this since Oct 2012. I cannot give it to them like this when they see the animation of a custom rom. I've never had an issue with any device till this. Driving me crazy :silly:

Man I tried everything I can think of. It may just be a hardware issue. I called for samsung support and they sent me a shipping label. Hope I can get the warranty with this custom rom animation. they will also see the twrp logo when trying to go to recovery. Makes me nervous about sending it in.
Have you tried installing a new copy of TWRP or CWM in Oden?
I have seen were people have issues starting after TWRP or CWM recovery, they say to make sure that you have un-check "disable Auto Reboot" in Oden.

P.S I already flashed via odin from Indian stock rom to XXKJ version mentioned above few months back.
Are you sure you followed this guide properly and did not check on CSC instead of PDA?
about the screen you mentioned is of recovery mode. try entering into download mode and repeat the whole proccess properly (Guide)
yesterday only i flashed this Rom via odin.(although it stuck in between at first trial but succeeded when i tried again) you could give it a try.
if you stuck at samsung logo after flashing follow these steps.

Yes, I did use the guide properly and check on PDA then loaded the md5 file. I will try with the ROM you mentioned. I hope I won't loose any data as I could not create any backup. Also, is my post in the right section or has to be moved to developer section to get more responses..

you will loose all data (messages,contacts,apps, etc) you wont loose sdcard data (songs, videos, etc).

But the last time I flashed to GB only, I did not loose any data(contacts, apps, etc). Will flashing to ICS will delete everything? Also I was planning to stick to GB only. And what does the error "Cant access to '/system/csc/INU/system/'." means? Can't I fix the phone by trying to resolve the particular error rather than trying ICS directly ? Guys who faced this type of error please comment your suggestions.
Thanks.
Thanks for your replies and comments.
I have tried both GB and ICS Indian ROMs.
With GB ROM, although I did not get the "can't find the file /system/csc/INU...." but the phone is stuck again after showing "successfully applied multi CSC". The process doesn't go any further with a kind of disabled progress bar under it.
With ICS ROM, I don't notice any such messages but I see a droid with a crystal which stops animating after some time. There was no progress for half an hour after which I removed the battery.
Is my phone having any serious issue. How do I proceed now ??

i have never faced any thing like CSC in log which you are facing. If you are using any odin version other than 1.85 then try 1.85. Also compare the screenshot process with yours.
If you still dont get success then i think you should visit Samsung Service Centre. they will only guide you properly.

When I flashed indian ICS the log was as shown in 'Message' box in SS
i have never faced any thing like CSC in log which you are facing. If you are using any odin version other than 1.85 then try 1.85. Also compare the screenshot process with yours.

Thanks for your reply Nikhil. I am using odin3 v1.85. I just tried to flash with ICS ROM and attached are the screenshots, if you can notice anything going wrong while flashing. Also after the success message the phone rebooted and after two black screens the android animation stops. There was a progress bar indicator initially, which disappeared when screen went black 1st time.
Go to recovery mode and do a factory reset.

Exactly so you can see now there isnt any CSC in logs guess u were doing something wrong!
anyways, now download tar file from here and flash cwm recovery v4.0.0.2 or any other recovery through odin. then perform factory reset. it will boot properly then.
Note:- performing direct factory reset is bit risky. Read what Adam77Root and Disturbed said

Thanks for the reply kaushal,
Did you mean to choose the wipe data/factory reset option from the blue colored menu as mentioned in my question or is it using some other process?

Dude,
I was talking about the log on my phone screen. I am attaching the error displayed on my mobile when flashing non Indian ROM's. Before I do any factory reset I would like you all to have a look at the error where the flashing process is hanging.
Update: The second screenshot is the complete process while flashing in odin3. It hangs at this point after showing msg "successfully applied multi-CSC". The difference is if Indian ROM is used, the error "cannot find /system/CSC.." is skipped. In any case the flashing doesn't proceed from this point. If I reboot by removing the battery, the activity is shown in first screen shot. As ICS ROM flashing doesn't show any text msg of what process is going on in phone I have used GB ROM to display the message.
I highly appreciate your comments and need your suggestions as to which way to proceed.
If you got the first screenshot.just do a factory reset as it appears in the screen you have given in the first screen shot.NOTE:try a factory reset in the stock recovery donot flash CWM. It worked for me.

I apologize if the easy and simple fix to this issue has already been posted, but so far, I've read so many different "solutions"...none of wwhich has worked.
Yesterday, I accepted an OTA update, after which my tablet never booted up again. It will partially boot up, but will get "stuck" on the glowing Samsung logo. It will not proceed any further, and will just sit there on the logo until the battery wears out.
I've been able to get it to the menu to wipe data, etc (holding down the power button and volume up), which I DID, only to have the tablet reboot to the glowing logo and sit there yet again.
I don't know what to do. It doesn't sound like Samsung has a fix for this software problem? Or is there really something wrong with my tablet that I'd have to send it in? Sounds like others who have done this have received their tablets back, "fixed", only to have the same thing happen again when they did the OTA update, OR if they did the update through Kies.
I'm a newbie. I'm not a techie. If there IS a fix for this, can you give me STEP-BY-STEP instructions on what to do? AS if you are talking to a child? haha...thank you so much! I'm SO upset...my tablet was beautiful, and now it's just dead...

And exactly HOW do I "reboot into recovery"? Everytime I push power plus the volume up button, I get to a warning screen that says something about "warning, you are about to change the OS...continue or cancel" I cant get past this to even GET to the menu of "reboot", "wipe data", etc.
HELP!
(Thanks for responding!)

Alright...I did get it into recovery mode, I factory reset it, then hit wipe cache partition. It started the process, THEN I saw "ERROR" flash quickly up on the screen. Then it began to boot up again, and here I am, STUCK ON THE GLOWING LOGO AGAIN.
This didnt work. Anybody else have a different suggestion?

Odin says "No binary selected"????
Please, I have NO idea what this is, or what the heck I'm doing.
Alright, so the file I think I need is P5113UECLK7. Anybody have any ideas where I can download this? ALL LINKS I FIND are to site that have been shutdown, and it is NOT on the Sammobile site, either.

Hey there DetroitJulie....I have it, but for some reason I cant get the thing uploaded onto the site. Its becoming very irritating to say the least. If you want to pm me your email address i'll try and sent it that way. Ive got the .zip for recovery and the .tar file for odin.
