have you successfully flashed the phone? if yes ->

press VOL UP + HOME + POWER

-> you'll go into recovery mode
-> wipe data

then you'll be able to start.

have you successfully flash the ROM?
because if you did, wipe it and give it some time..

it'll boot..

try flashing it again.
and can you explain exactly what you did while flashing?

make sure its the correct version. of the phone. cuz i saw 2 types of models there

okay..open the following website, register and download the firmware files..
http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&...type=1#firmware

or if you dont want to register, here you go (same as the files in sammobile) ->
http://hotfile.com/dl/145829197/9a0b020/I9...P7_XME.zip.html

then download this,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703998

then connect your phone in download mode. (VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER),

1. click on PDA -> navigate to your ROM files (inside the zip file should be a .tar.md5 or .tar format)
2. then flash

it is 2.3.4, but you may upgrade it OTA later. since now you have to fix your phone first.

VIEW HERE FOR MORE GRAPHICAL TUTORIAL (this is root process, but it applies as well, ignore the file types):

just view until the command prompt images (ignore the command prompt tutorial as its not needed)

okay

i think you should register in sammobile and navigate to the proper ROM files (phone model).
cuz if you flash the wrong files.

your phone will be permanently brick.

boot looping is considered bricked.

permanent bricking im not sure how it looks like. but XDA mentioned alot of times that if you screw up, it'll be permament brick. so far i never kena.

i guess so! to save time maybe you can download this file first, then go home no need to waste time downloading.

but to be safe.. check your phone box and see the details when you get home!



anyway..
after you flash you have to go thru the recovery process i stated earlier, you have to wipe or it wont start.

and are the steps completely different from the ones i posted and the ones you've been doing?

erm, if you can still access download mode by press + hold = VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER KEY

then its not permanently brick.. can access?

have you tried giving it a couple of minutes? :S

btw, you do know the consequences of flashing right? it has a flash counter. :S
warranty is voided. but it can be fixed..

its just weird that your phone cannot boot.
