It would have been good to have UART to see what happens ;) Did you flash a new bootloader when flashing the stock image? Some resistor values might change the behaviour and some image you flashed as part of the stock ROM could have caused a reset. But I'm only speculating and I don't know what is possible with Samsung's proprietary bootloader. And without more details about where exactly the boot fails, it's hard to say what happened.
