[Q] Stuck at "Samsung Galaxy Note 3" Logo? - AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a Note 3 (AT&T) and it is simply stuck at the Galaxy Note 3 logo. Running (or should I say ran) rooted 4.4.2 and no matter how long I wait it will not give me the option to boot into SS 3.72 or continue on to the OS. I can boot into stock recovery and download modes, but nothing else. Not sure what is wrong but am currently stuck with an expensive paperweight. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Update: Fixed it myself. Posted this when I was unsure if http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=51572014 would work, but tried and it worked perfectly.

[Q] Problem rooting Galaxy tab with firmware 2.3.4

So I followed ALL the steps needed to root my Galaxy tab (watched videos & read) running firmware 2.3.4 and I'm not having any luck. I downloaded the latest version of "SuperOneClick" V.1.9.5 and plugged in my device and hit the ROOT button... everything seems fine until it hangs at "Running psneuter". I let it sit there for more than 30 minutes and nothing happens... Can someone PLEASE help me??
Thank you!!

Maybe you can share the method that worked for you? Somebody else may have the same problem.

I too am trying to ROOT my galaxy tab - gingerbread 2.3.3.
Used One Click methos with Froyo 2.2, then along came Kies with Gingerbread.
So that got loaded in, but root disappeared of course.
So used the Original 'One Click' but it wont go past "Running psneuter".
I have tried all the other 2 variations shown for "One Click "
All hang at "Running psneuter".
Tried once on ''Gingerbreak'' but still hung there. sigh.
WHAT method was used to root your tab. I would love to know !!!
Can't boot into Recovery
Hello Everyone,
So I was using the popular root method found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239185 and after I ran the .exe and pushed the information to the tablet, I tried to follow your 7.4 step "Press the Vol Up button (the right Volume button) to select Recovery mode." under "Completeing the ROOT" section and my tablet didn't load the recovery it just froze. I've tried several times now but I'm guessing that something isn't quite right. Let me know if you say this problem with anyone else or if you have some extra advice.
This is the wrong thread for this question. I'll repost it in the galaxy tab 10.1 section sorry!

[Q] Why does my rom install in seconds and boot to black screen?

I have a note 3 that I'm trying to get Cyanogenmod 11 on to. I should note that I got this working with my Droid Razr earlier today using the exact same process. I get to the point where I flash the rom and it only takes like 5 seconds then says "successful". When I boot the rom I just get a black screen that I have to hold the power button down to get out of. My note 3 is running 4.4.2 I have root and busybox is installed. I've tried safestrap 3.72 and 3.75. I've even tried the stock slot (and then reverted back when it didn't work). I'm out of things to try and I can't find anyone else who has had a similar issue. Anyone got any ideas?
If its an N900A or N900V, you can only run TW based roms because the bootloader is locked.

How are people getting cyanogenmod 11 on their att note 3s if not through safestrap?
I don't know of anyone with an at&t note 3 running CM. It's possible they're using an N900T, or an N9005 Note 3 on at&t.

Well that's sad. I'm assuming any of these will work in the meantime? http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-att/#romList
They should, just make sure if you're on KK to choose a KK rom.
noob over here needing help
i have the ATT Note 3 with the locked bootloader. i cant rememeber the model name but i think its like I900A. anyway i have had it rooted for about 5 months or so and i have had safestrap and busybox and use Xposed wanam. also using twrp and titanium backup. well i have never flashed anything on it cuz ive always been sketched out with the locked bootloader and not being able to flash kernals and all that. so yesterday i figured i would try one out and see if i could get it. i used the "S5 Experience" rom and i downloaded it from MEGA onto my ext. SD under a new folder i made called "s5 experience". i then went into recovery mode through safestrap and went to "backup" and then made a backup of data, cache, and system. after that i went to "wipe" and did a factory reset/wipe. when that was done i went to "install" and found my "s5 experience" on my ext. SD and installed it. when that was done i rebooted my device and it popped up with the samsung note 3 emblem and under it the little lock underneath it in the unlocked position just like it always has. then went to safestrap with the little red robot and "safestrap: disabled" like always. so i hit continue and from there is when my problem started. the blue LED light on the top left turned on and stayed on but the screen stayed black. this is the problem i am still having right now. if i press the power button it will vibrate or double vibrate and eventualy if i hold it down i can get it to restart. after that i went into recovery again and tried to restore from my backup i had made just earlier. when i try that it goes for a while and then will eventually say that restore has failed. ive mesed with some of the settings and stuff in the twrp recovery interface but not much because im new and not sure what i should and should not be doing. so i started looking here. i didnt find any help on the S5 Experience forum and i havent found and other forums that have this problem except maybe this one. so i am asking for help, if someone would be so kind as to walk me through how to fix my phone and what i did wrong it would be greatly greatly appreciated. if at all possible i would love to keep all of my pics and apps and stuff but if that is not possible then i wont complain if i have to lose it all. i would be happy just to have a working phone again. thanks in advance and sorry if i have posted this in the wrong place.

If you can boot to stock recovery (power+home+volume up) NOT safestrap recovery do a factory reset from there. That'll reflash stock rom and you can reroot + busybox + SS. Make sure to check what build you are on as well - if you are on NC2 kitkat you can only flash kitkat-based roms.

brisinger08, thanks for the input. i was running kit kat. i figured the s5 experience would be based off of kitkat too but i guess i should have checked first. i just tried that. when i got into the recovery boot the little android guy falls over. then i went to factory wipe and let it wipe. after that i went to reboot. when it rebooted it still had the little lock under the Samsung logo and after that screen it went straight to safestrap again. it hasn't seemed to change anything as far as i can tell. any other ideas?

If you're on the A3 bootloader then reflashing NC2 with odin will clear this up, (double-check in download mode) then follow the instructions in this thread. If you're on A2 you can still do this but it will overwrite your bootloader and lock you into NC2 so if that's the case you might want to read through that thread to make sure you're ok with that!

Can't unroot my s4

I need to return my s4 and I want to reset it to the system defaults and remove root access. My problem is that I think I messed up downloading TWRP recovery because ever since then I can't access recovery mode, it just goes to Odin mode/download mode. TWRP doesn't matter though, I don't need to recover anything in this phone I just want it to be reset. So I tried flashing stock rom through Odin but it takes a out 10 seconds then it says it's done and when my phone reboots absolutely nothing changed. I didn't download any custom roms so I would even be fine with just being able to take all my personal data off and factory reset it but I can't do that. Any help is appreciated!

Do you have the U.S./A.T.&T. model (SGH-i537) or the international model (SGH-i9295) and were you on kitkat or lollipop? And where did you get the stock file you were trying to flash through Odin?
I have the Verizon SCH-I545 (NK1) on 4.4.2. And I got it from the galaxy s4 root website link to customroms.net

Oops you're in the wrong forum, this forum is for a different phone. The forum for that phone can be found here. Since I don't have that phone (neither do most people on this forum, I'm guessing) I have never used that forum. However, a brief glimpse indicates this thread might have the solution you are looking for. If not, this other thread looks pretty useful too.
In the future, please make sure you're posting in the forum for the correct device.
Edit: It also sounds like you might have downloaded the wrong file(s)
Oops! I'm new to posting on the xda forums I apologize. Thank you for your help though!

Flash TWRP recovery from nf site & try again or read the tutorials (how to) from nf site.

I need help!!!!

Ok so I am new to this whole root thing. After several attempts i finally got my Samsung Galaxy S5 rooted with Odin. I'm using TWRP, along with Supersu, rom tools pro. I am overall happy but the problem I am having is i cannot seem to change my boot animation. I managed to delete the stock T-Mobile animation but nothing will load up. I followed all instructions to the letter and still no luck. The phone is running 6.0.1 marshmallow. Do i need to downgrade to 5.0 or lower? Please point me in the right direction thank you in advance.

A custom boot animation needs a special file: system/media/bootanimation.zip.
