How to to recover your Soft brick Samsung Smart Phone

In some cases like myself you download over and over different custom Roms  or have to root over and over or there may be a bad file and some times leads to a soft brick where you cant get to using your phone and your stuck on a logo on your phone and cant get out of it.There are some possible ways in one of the ways I'm gonna demonstrate by showing you is using Odin.That's right the download tool for samsung Odin.Now check to see on which you would use for your different model phone but this is for Samsung phones only Odin you might be able to use for certain other phones but this is for samsung phones only.What you wanna do is put your phone in download mode which is volume down button power button and center home all at the same time once in download mode or in download mode hit volume up .It tells you to hit volume up to move on or volume down to cancel.hit volume up. Now that you have gotten your phone into download mode your gonna wanna head over to the +xda-developers  thread to your firmware stock firmware that is and download your specific carriers firmware.Once downloaded you want to extract the file to make sure once you extracted that file you get an md5 tar file if not something went wrong and try again to extract it or download the file again.Now that you have that all set it is time to download Odin just google it and you will find Odin.This is very easy to do once you downloaded Odin open it up everything in Odin should basically be all set up just make sure re-partition is not checked next to it.Once in Odin you can plug your phone into your computer through the usb port and when doing so you should see a box that is now blue or yellow lit up in the com box if not you have to re install drivers for your computer to recognize your phone i don't mention drivers cause now a days most computers for windows anyways downloads the drivers when you initially plug your phone into your computer.Now that we see a yellow or blue color in the box were ready to proceed.First thing is to click the PDA button in Odin once connected and Odin is opened and when you click the PDA button you will now find where you downloaded and extracted the firmware for your carrier.Make sure its a tar md5 file when you scroll to find that file click on it or open it  to now it will be next to the PDA slot in Odin.Make sure again re-partition is not checked.Once you tar md5 file is next to the PDA slot hit start that's it let it go by itself it should take ten to fifteen minutes let it reboot after and your all done and phone is fixed.I have to warn you that all data is erased  and its like having a new phone so make sure you always have your  stuff backed up to retrieve anything after
