Galaxy S3 Soft Bricked Help? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

My brother rooted his phone and flashed a custom ROM but decided to go back to stock because YouTube would not work with the 60FPS. He used Samsung Kies to go back to stock ROM it didn't work He got an error saying "Frimware Emergency Recovery" in Kies.
When he saw that he took out the battery and got an error saying "Frimware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again" on his phone. He putted his phone on download mode and used Odin3. V1.85 and rooted his phone and flashed CWM and SuperSU. HE flashed the CM 12.1 Nightlies he was able to go back past the Samsung boot but gets stuck on CM Boot. In Odin it won't work it says Failed when he wants to go back to stock ROM. He cant go to CWM he has to root it using odin to go into the custom recovery mode.
____Upgrade_and_Initiā€¦___AT_T_Samsung_Galaxy_Note_II___XDA_Forums[1].png IS what he got in Samsung Kies.

I believe the issue is from trying to downgrade your bootloader. You need to flash the correct rom.

[Q] Bootloop

Hi guys,
My N7100 was rooted and has been working fine for almost a month now. I have flashed several custom ROMs and have had no issues.
Today I restarted the phone to recovery and the phone shows the initial blue TWRP screen and then goes back to show Samsung logo and this keeps on repeating over and over.. meaning, can't enter into the recovery mode.
I am able to enter in download mode though. Downloading 4.1.2 stock ROM for my country so I can hopefully flash it through ODIN.
If possible I would wish to retain the ROM that's on the phone and use it as before. Any idea as to why the phone can't enter into TWRP? Will it help if I flash CWM via ODIN and reboot the phone after entering CWM?
Flashed CWM via ODIN and rebooted. Back into my custom ROM.
Not sure why TWRP stopped working all of a sudden. Anyway, all is well now.
For anyone who may go through the same, here is the topic to download CWM from.

[Q] Stuck in a bootloop after using odin.

So i tried flashing back to stock from PA 3.99 RC2 via odin this morning and am now stuck in a bootloop at the samsung logo. I flashed LK4 via odin, Odin said the flash was a success and the device rebooted but won't go past the samsung logo. I'm capable to get into download mode but not into the stock recovery. I have tried flashing LK4 3 times and each time i get the same issue. My GS3 is from rogers.
UPDATE: Managed to final get into stock 3e recovery, from there did a wipe date/factory reset and phone booted up just fine. Sorry for this post, if mods feel the need to delete it go ahead.

[Q] SPH-L900 wont boot issues

So I was running 4.3 and was rooted on my note 2 on sprint. I had SuperSU and I did a unroot so I could upgrade to 4.4 I unrooted then rebooted then installed 4.3 then things started to go bad. I can get to download mode, but it wont boot past Smasung GALAXY Note II splash screen. Can't even boot to recovery mode. I have used ODIN to flash CWMR, TWRP, stock rom. And nothing works, if the image has a sboot.bin file, ODIN fails everytime. When I flash to correct stock rom ODIM passes but when it boots it boots to the a firmware update error but Samsungs kies just says connecting ... and doesn't ever connect. I don't know if i hard-bricked or soft-bricked my note 2 or if I am just doing something wrong. PLEASE help me I miss my phone lol.

S4 bricks when updating, help.

The main cause of the problem is that I tried to install TWRP custom recovery on my galaxy S4 while it had the MK2 baseband on it. now every time I try to upgrade the phone it gets bricked and goes into download mode. I then flash SGS-I337_16GB.pit using odin 3.09 and then odin tells me that the flash failed, However when I restart my phone it boots up to normal.
I just want to install android L 'cause I HATE touchwiz! help please :crying:
