Should I use that Odin program in your signature to do it? I've never had a problem like this so I'm a little freaked out and dunno what to do since I can't flash anything anymore because it can't read my "sd card"

I prefer the Odin myself. Don't worry you are only soft bricked and many users and developers have gone through this with JB.

Okay, it loaded up one final time before freezing again, at a lock screen asking my for a password for my encrypted files to unlock the phone, I don't believe I have any encrypted anything, oh well, I'm gonna try to go to stock and see how that works out for me

So I'm not 100% but I think odin is hung up on system.img, it's been there for around 15 minutes not moving

It takes a while but I think that's a bit excessive. Wait a few more minutes then try it again. Wondering if you have a bad download. You do have two files right? One for PDA and one for PHONE?

Yup, put them in the right slots and everything. I already used this once, I got into my phone and it froze again the same as it was earlier, forgot to lock the bootloader, so I tried to redo it with a bootloader lock this time, now it's hung up, should I unplug it and try again? I'm scared to touch it

Battery pull on the phone before trying it again. Also reboot your PC.

I now have another problem, I now just get an Icon that shows a phone - yellow exclamation point - computer, odin still reads the phone, should I give it another shot?

[paul_gyver]

Yes proceed.
