I re-rooted on my mac using this method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1762709
and then used the Rom Toolbox app to change the font as I have done many times. Now I am stuck on a bootloop and cant anywhere. I tried booting into recovery and installing a stock rom zip. Any ideas? really would like to get my phone working again!!
What worked for me was booting into recovery and wiping cache and factory reset.

ahh tried that still sitting at the 4G LTE screen.
Did you try the factory reset option? Which I know will suck unless you have a nandroid.
Can you get into download mode, sounds like you'll have to Odin back to stock and flash the boot chains too.

I can get to download mode, yes but will have to wait to see if I can get a windows computer to use Odin. Ill try to factory reset again.

Sound like me when i bricked my phone, had to wait till I got to work to use a PC so I could use Odin. Hopefully Heimdall gets finished soon so us Mac users won't have to depend on Odin anymore.

I tried flashin to stock firmware through Odin, and it said it passed/ flashed successfully yet my phone just stays on the at&t Logo, any advice?
I NEED my phone for work tomorrow and it's already getting late. I've reflashed twice now. I'm starting to panic.

I have fixed this for myself, Thanks close or delete this thread.
All I did was pull battery out, restarted to stock recovery, wiped data./ factory reset and, rebooted into rom, wiped sd and internal sd.
Now I'm off to flash a new rom, thanks!
I had the same problem. I took the same steps you did and recovered mine.

My phone wont even connect to Keis Air, i tried connecting my phone while its in download mode and when its stuck in the rethink possible screen. Still wont connect to Keis Air.
They way I was able to fix mine was to first open Kies then select initialize firmware and connect phone to USB port in back of PC. Follow the prompts they will ask for model number and serial number it is located under battery. Select OK. Once firmware is finished Downloading it will prompt you to accept, disconnect phone from PC and then place phone in DL mode by removing battery reinsert battery press volume +- and then volume + to continue once you do that then connect phone to PC via USB and follow screen prompt on PC. It took me about one hour for mine to finally return to stock. I'm going from memory because I'm not sitting in front of computer at this time. Maybe someone with more knowledge than I can help. Good luck.

Can you boot into recovery? Use adb to pull your photos to your pc.

Hi Guys,
I was on ICS and was going to wipe out everything and reinstall everything fresh. I got stuck on the Icy glitch Kernel and so I decided to use ODIN and go back to stock. I think the extraction of Odin was not done properly and as a result when I flashed it did all the steps but when it got to the reset step the phone did not reboot. And now it is totally unresponsive,
Is there anything I can do to revive it?
Thank you
Which Odin back to Stock did you use ? Can u still get into download mode ? Does your phone show any signs of life at all...even when plugged into a wall charger ?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using xda premium
Well if your phone isn't even booting up then u might have to resort to puting it in download either using a JIG OR using a three button method that can be found somewhere in the forums or through google. Also try to see if this version of odin works for you:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
My friend installed 3e recovery. He later installed CWM. He did a backup, wiped data, dalvic cache, and he also formatted /system. He forgot to plug in the SD card with the ROM zip file, and after rebooting he can no longer access recovery. It just sits on the Samsung screen. Using "adb reboot recovery" makes the phone reboot, but it's still stuck. I'm dont know much about adb, but it will not let us push any files onto the phone.
Edit: When we try going in recovery (holding vol+/- and power) Samsung logo keeps blinking on and off.
Your best bet would be to return to stock, install a custom kernel, copy the file over, and flash after wiping

How do i do that without the ability to go in recovery? When i do Samsung screen keeps turning on and off.
Download a return-to-stock package, and go to download mode

i'll start the old Google to figure out what and how, but if you have the time can you explain this to me like i'm an idiot?
I did this and nothing changed: http://www.justanswer.com/android-devices/6k5fd-tried-upgrade-samsung-infuse-using-kies-mini.html
Also ADB is having hard time seeing the device. I got it to list the device once. And one more thing, I have to got o work now, but I'll be back in 4-5 hours (around 10pm central time)
Thank you in advance.
Ok now I have a new problem. When I put the phone in download mode i hear the "USB device plugged it" sound but Odin will not recognize the phone.
Edit: I believe that i have the drivers installed.
Which drivers? Heimdall or Odin?

please guys i need your help. My note ii wont load up
it can load into recovery
but i cant use odin or anything because the toolkit im using always waits for debugging mode to be on. I cant turn it on because i cant get the phone to turn on.
I tried using odin directly with no luck. it wont load the stock image on to the phone
The phone doesnt show up as connected to my computer but is recognized by the toolkit i am using
Please help, i just need to flash a stock rom back on this thing and be able to use it again. Its pissing me off because i literally just got it about 4 days ago for a substantial amount of money.
thanks for any help
found a way to get it to download mode to use odin but i am trying to flash a stock image to it and its just sitting here. not doing anything. it went throught the loading and everything in odin and started the flash, but it just sitting here now saying
write start
cashe.img
... now it is only saying firmware upgrade encountered an issue.
Boot into recovery and flash the firmware from there (put it on the external sd card)?

You're on the right track to try Odin. Let us know after you've tried that if it worked or not.

sounds like phone was completly wiped, even the recovery, or it was a previous bad flash, odin the jb firmware would be the way to go
Phone was not wiped.not sure what was/is wrong.but,when I went to reflash back to stock,it booted up properly.so i didnt reflash.it also rebooted into recovery from os system shut down.it would not boot into recovery using button method.only download mode.
So when I get time,I'll go back to stock and start over.I take phone back to gb (I don't like ic or jb drivers.)I have better luck starting there.i flash Odin gb stock with root.then cm7.2,cm10 to upgrade recovery.then 4.4.2 cm kk.mite be the long way,but it has always worked well.
I left out that I get recovery after stock flash.then get everything else through recovery.i data transfer from comp.
