FML!!

i got a new phone yesterday and was planning on giving my old one (galaxy s3)to the old man. so i did a factory reset on it and set it up for him. all no problem. i come back from the gym and its just showing the Samsung logo you get when you turn it on but nothing more???

i believe its a common problem.

ive spent the last 4 hrs trying to sort it; some people suggest using Kies to reinstall the OS, some say flash it. i cant get anything to work but i have no real idea what im doing so i could be doing something wrong.

anyone any ideas???
