I've looked around a bit and can't quite find someone that has had my specific situation.
I have a AT&T S3 SGH-I747 that is rooted running stock 4.1.1 with CWM 6.0.4.7. I have updated the modem and bootloader (Baseband - I747UCUEMJB and Build # JRO03L.I747UCDLK3).

I have tried to flash custom and stock ROMS with CWM but get stuck on the glowing Samsung logo. I have tried to follow the instructions listed here but I cannot flash the stock ROM with ODEN.

I am not sure as to what to attempt next. I first want to be able to update to 4.3/4.4.2 and then try custom builds.

I have all my apps and data backed up with MyBackup and a Nandroid backup as well.

Thank you.

Are you wiping the cache, davilk, and data before of after flashing the ROM?

I wipe/format before the flash. I factory reset, clear cache, clear davilk, format data, and format system then flash the ROM. I've tried several combinations of clearing/formatting. The flash always goes well and then I reboot. The boot goes and then just sits at the Samsung logo (It does make the AT&T sound during this time)

Try to factory reset once the flash is done if it doesn't boot after 5-10min.

Unfortunately that tip did not appear to help. I still got stuck on the glowing Samsung logo.

I was final able to flash 4.3 using the method here using odin.
