S.O.S.: infinite loop after flashing stock ROM... - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I really need your help please!!!
I've tryed to restoer my S3 Mini but now it boot up with the Samsung logo and boot sound (only the first time!) and after sone sec it reboot and reboot in a loop with the same Samsung logo but no boot sound.
I start from CM10.1 then I flashed stock recovery and triangle away show me that the counter is 0.
Then I've changed the CSC from TUK to ITV (I live in Italy) changing the file sales_code.dat in /system/csc/ and after rebooting and checking the counter that was 0...
I've falshed via ODIN the ITV ROM downloaded from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159660
The S3 Mini reboot but in a infinite loop so...
I've flashed the PARAM_I8190.zip attached on the same post but nothing is changed!
PLEASEEEE!!! S.O.S!!!!

As I know, the one package file of extension (.tar.md5) is placed under One Package field & not in PDA.
Also u need an ops file which should be placed under OPS field.

I was flashing before like this, everything was fine. There must be a way to fix this.
Nobody? Is anything possible with adb or fastboot?
EDIT: I fixed it. Thanks anyway.

Hello, I'm having exactly the same problem. I went back to stock from cm10, but now I have a bootloop (boots until samsung logo and reboots.)
I think I just need to wipe data, but I can't access recovery. I even flashed cwm a few times and flashed the stock rom with a pit file, but I'm still stuck on samsung logo.
So, any help?

Hi, I had exactly the same problem, flashed the stock firmwire but it gets stuck on samsung logo, flashed few CWMs but nothing. I really didn't know what to do, then my battery became critical so i connected it to the pc and let it charge. While charging, I tried to acces the CWM recovery (home+volume up+volume down + power) and BAM! It opened recovery, I deleted all user data, cache and factory reset, rebooted and it worked.
Try to flash stock rom
Flashing stock rom didn't work.

Hi All,
I was struggle with bootloop issue for 3 days. I got my problem when I forgot to wipe phone returning ROM 10.2 to stock rom. Before I didn’t have any problems with getting to recovery mode but after I was not able to get to CWM. Also did try (vol+) (vol-) (home) hold while odin reset all I get RUMDAMP ARM9. Same when trying to hold recovery combination while normal boot. I have no problems with getting to Download mode.
Phone show Samsung animation and then vibrate once, pause, vibrate twice.
What work for me.
Recovery Combination = (vol+) + (vol-) + (home) + (pwr)
1. With odin 3.04 (don know if version matters I hade SS_DL.dll in same folder as odin) I install cwm-6.0.3.3-b2-jena.tar.md5
2. It restarted and get boot loop again
3. When I hold recovery combination phone didn’t boot. But what did I remove battery plug it again. Press (pwr) and immediately (maybe 0.5 sec) I hold rest of the recovery combination. Phone boot and show me logo so I release the buttons. To my surprise I did boot to CWM. (don’t know way but I didn’t do wipe immediately but I restart did try it again to be sure if this works – and it did, at least for me)
Rest was easy (WIPE Factory Reset, Cache, Dalvik Cache and just in case fix permission) restart and did boot to Stock ROM. For some unknown reason now I can normally CWM just buy holding combination and releasing as soon as Samsung logo show up.
I hope this will help somebody.
Now im using CM 10.1 07/07
My phone is S6500D no NFC
Cheers,
Maciej

No. I used CWR with Odin but the guide (I cannot post the link because I am a new user) that I used did not say to save Root_SuperSU.1.04 to an SD Card (I saved it onto the phones internal storage). So I tried to fix it with Param and came to the problem that I have now.

If you are talking about recovery i can t acces to.it because it reboots just after the samsung s3 min bootloop
Maybe you can't acces recovery because three button combo don't work. Try this.

Some s3 mini's can't change the recovery, it means, if you flash any recovery, your phone will go back automatically to stock recovery. You have to root your phone (example with vroot) and flash a custom recovery manually on your phone with "ROM Manager" or "[ROOT]Recovery Tools - flasher" (you can get both apps on Google play)

1)When you flashed stock firmware, did you put the firmware under "PDA"?
2) You flashed stock jb over stock jb for example?
