I tried flashing to 2.3.5 after i got stuck on boot after flashing a CM nightly. This got me stuck into recovery and ended up getting a "E: Cant mount /sdcard/" error.
After this, i decided to try flashing back to stock using this Odin one click: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
Now, my phone boots and gets stuck in a boot loop, constantly restarting the the white at&t startup screen. When i plug it in to my pc to access download mode, all i get is a grey battery screen with a spinning circle.
I now have a USB jig, so what should i do at this point to get my phone back into working condition? Hopefully to where i can flash a stable CM11 rom afterward.
UPDATE
so, i decided to run the same odin oneclick that i last used and the same thing happened on startup, white att logo boot loop and grey battery charging screen
Try one of these Stock Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread i897ucKK4 Odin or Heimdall One Clicks.

Then proceed with using Odin to flash the KK4 Corn Kernel by mtcarey, if ya want CWM Recovery, etc.

Hi everyone,
I am honestly at a loss. I tried to flash back to stock using Odin (not the one click) because I was having multiple problems with my custom ROM. However, after Odin did it's magic (I got the green sign with PASS) my phone rebooted into the blue screen (Samsung recovery I assume) then I hit reboot phone now, it got stuck in a reboot loop! It won't go past the Galaxy "S" logo at all, or it flashes the "S" then the screen just goes black. Fortunately, I can still enter download mode but about nothing else, not even a recovery screen or anything. I am running a Rogers Captivate 2.2 (or at least I flashed back to stock 2.2 successfully according to Odin) but I can't actually check since I am on a reboot loop.
Can anyone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP?
Thank you so much!
Just reflash stock. Unless there is a good reason you are not using the one click odin I would use it

What's ur phone batch number? U wud be able to find under the battery in the format YY.MM
Problem solved...
Entered recovery mode, had a brain flash, reformatted internal card and wiped user data. Worked like magic. I am an idiot. Thanks for all the help though!
All,
I had rooted a Captivate recently for a friend and installed CM7. After about a week, my friend decided to go back to stock. Prior to rooting, I made a backup of his stock rom just in case. I then showed him how to restore via Clockwork if need be. Tonight he came in to work and wanted to restore to stock, now he is stuck with a boot-looping Captivate. Now the phone sits at the AT&T World Phone splash screen. I've tried and tried all night to get the phone in DL mode so that I can use the One-Click ODIN restore but to no avail. I can't seem to get the phone in DL mode no matter what I try. Whenever I attempt, the phone simply reboots to the AT&T splash. Please assist if available.
P.S. When I plug the phone into any USB I get a circle (reminiscent of the Android loading spinner) in the center of the screen.
Assistance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

thats not how clockwork backups work...those are to restore your set up to the way you had it once you flash the rom it was backed up from thats why hes looping. you would odin back to stock THEN restore and it would be like he never flashed anything at all.
build/buy a jig that'll for sure get you int download mode.
Loop
I'm getting that same loop screen. What I did was use odin to restore my captivate back to factory because the 2.2 update wouldn't allow me superuser permission. After it was back to factory I rooted with super one click. It was successful but when i went to reboot the att world screen looped.
Help please
superoneclick works fine on 2.2.........you had no reason to go back to 2.1
I was using my note to control my Google TV when it restarted. It stuck at the first splash screen, the black and white one before the Samsung boot animation. Restarting the phone either by holding the power button or pulling the battery has no effect. I booted to stock recovery and wiped the cache to see if that helped, but it didn't. And now I can't boot to recovery, it just restarts when it gets to the recovery screen now. I can still boot to download, and seeing as the symptoms looked similar to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034859 I copied what he did and used Odin to flash the stock rooted gingerbread rom from the toolbox by dr.ketan http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1801341. The flash succeeded, but it still won't boot, and now I can't even get to the recovery screen, but download mode still works.
I'm not sure what to do, should I try and flash an unrooted GB rom?
BTW, I was using a rooted stock JB rom XXLSA before this went wrong, and I hadn't installed anything that day. Also, I hadn't noticed until today but although there is no yellow triangle the download mode has a count of 1, is there a way to fix this if I need to send it back?

Flash a gb rom with odin.. And Triangle away app will reset the flash counter in download mode
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Its worth trying a GB rom which has WIPE written next to it from Dr Ketans thread. install using odin a see what happens
Not sure what fixed it, but it's working now.
I just left it plugged in to the mains on the boot screen and it eventually booted up into the stock GB rom, and now the recovery mode works. If I try flashing the XXLSA again it locks up still, not sure why, but it won't boot. I've gone back to using CM10.1 nightlies as I was before trying the stock JB, and that is working as well as can be expected.
I rooted my mums ace using this method. However I didn't install CWM, I just went straight ahead and stupidly installed the .zip straight from the recovery mode utility. I'm trying to install this ROM.
Now I'm stuck at this step and I think I may have softbricked it.... Youtube clip below:

Basically it turns on, the sammy logo comes up and then it goes red and lines out. Then it just sits there with the backlight on.
I have a download jig at hand if I need it, so I can access download mode and I have the SD card to use.
Update: installed CWM through the .zip recovery file. i then installed the ROM above and it's now just stuck at the boot logo, with the cyanogenmod blue circle swirling around.

Did you factory reset in recovery?
Sent from my GT-S5830 using Tapatalk 2
Yep, it did nothing. I'm guessing that when I flashed the CM10 ROM it cleaned out the factory reset.
Ok, panic over!
I managed to get this ROM working.
Hello everyone I have a problem with my Galaxy s5 G900A (AT&T) his booting but the screen is black but before that happens I did some manipulation on it I will give you the time line of what did happen and I hope that someone could have the answer to may issue (Sorry for my English)
1) My phone was running normally until one day where he turned off and was stuck in boot loop but after some hours he turned on and worked normally and that did happen a lot of time.
2) One day the same thing happened but this time it was really stuck in Boot Loop for days so I decided to flash a new ROM using Odin so I did download this ROM “G900AUCS4DPH3”
3) I flashed the ROM using Odin but that didn't change anything.
4) I tried to flash another ROM “G900AUCS4CPA2” a lollipop ROM after that the phone was still stuck on the boot loop but after some time he did boot but the screen was black so I tried to take off the battery and pushed the lock button for 1, 2 and 5 minutes but in vine that didn't change anything (note: when I tried to access the recovery mode the phone was rebooting but I could access the download mode and the screen was turning on so it wasn't a screen problem)
5) After this I tried to flash the same ROM but by enabling the flash boot loader option in Odin then the phone did run but the screen was black and the boot loop problem was gone and when I tried to access the download mode sometimes it was working but the screen was black and sometimes the phone was rebooting (I felt the vibration) so I decide to use 300K tool (it a software that put the phone in download mode just by plugging it to your computer).
6) After all this I tried a lot of other roms but the problem was steel the same.
7) I tried to flash the roms with a pit file but it didn't change anything.
So now the screen is always black but the is booting normally I don’t know what to do help me please.
List off roms that I tried:
Android 6: G900AUCS4DPH4
G900AUCS4DPH3
Android 5: G900AUCS4CPA2
Android 4: G900AUCU1ANCE
G900AUCU2AND3
Note: when I try to flash Android KitKat roms Odin shows me an error message.
Odin versions that I used:
Odin3 v3.12.3
Odin3 v3.09
Odin3 v3.07
