Your not the only one who had this problem... I which the mod would shut down the thread pushing rooting via flashing.

Too many newbies are having issues flashing.

I recommend saveroot.zip. It leaves your device's counter untouched. Also it is 100% safe.

Now what to do with your device since it is stuck at the Samsung logo.

You can do what I do for stuck screens. Power on, and hold only the up volume key. Keep it held until boot screen is finished.

If that does not work, go into recovery and clear cache and reboot.

If none of the options work, you may have flashed with an incompatible file, there are three versions and only one is specific to your device. you can try re-flashing with a good file.
