So I was trying to reset my mother's t769 to stock, and have somehow ended up I. A bootloop. I made sure to uncheck repartition, and Odin reports everything went OK, but the phone never makes it past the Samsung logo... I've repeated the Odin process 3x with the "hitsquad" firmware, downloaded the firmware from sammobile.com and tried that too...any suggestions? What did I do wrong?!

I no longer have this phone but you may want to try another USB port and also reinstall the Samsung mobile driver. Then give Odin another try.

Here's a simple fix(it worked for me):
1. Flash CWM Recovery onto your phone using Odin.
2. Disconnect your phone from the USB cable
3. Hold the Power button + Volume buttons until the CWM Recovery comes up
4. Factory Reset + Wipe Cache + Wipe Dalvik Cache
5. Reboot
6. IF the boot loops is still there, now's the time to reinstall the ROM again using Odin
7. The stock ROM that I used to flash using Odinwasn't the one you're using as I had many problems with it, I instead used the T769UVLH5_T769TMBLH5_TMB.tar which got it to work.
8. If you can't find the file somewhere online, just ask for and I will upload it :)

Thank you so much--for some reason, it wouldn't enter recovery until I odin'ed cwm, then I was able to factory reset/wipe data and cache and everything was working again.
