Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 FAILS in Odin - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, guys. First of all sorry for my english, but I need help.
I am here because I dont know what to do, I have tried everything without success. Let me explain: I have a S3 GT-I9300, I have had it since 2013 and I have gone through everything with it: brick, several rom, resets, etc. On saturday I woke up and my phone was in a boot loop, but I said ''bah, I can fix it in 20 mins'', but as you can see I couldnt do it. First of all, NAND write start error appeared, I havent seen that error before, then partition errors appeared too.
I can enter to dowload mode and it says GT-I9300 in product name, I can enter to recovery but I cant do anything there
I have tried to flash the same stock rom that I always have, it is an emergency firmware that I have used like 5 times, so.... It is weird that it cannot fix this up. I also have tried with Sammobile's firmware, with and without pit, in 3 usb ports and with 2 usb cables and always the same result: FAIL.
I hope you can help me, buying another phone in my country is difficult.

It can be a hardware issue on emmc of the phone if failed after so many different tries

And what can I do about it?

What is the Odin error? Post the Odin log.

This is one of those:
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..
<ID:0/005> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/005> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/005> Get PIT for mapping...
Then it does not do anything (in this case I used 4 files + pit, and those files and pit are the ones that I have always used)
The other one is this:
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Initialzation..
<ID:0/005> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/005> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/005> sboot.bin
<ID:0/005> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/005> FAIL!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
This was the first error that appeared. (this is with sammobile's firmware)

The sboot.bin file is the bootloader. It's probably failing to flash for one or more of the following reasons:
the bootloader in the phone is newer than the bootloader in the ROM being flashed;
the ROM is not for the phone being flashed;
need to try a different USB cable;
need to try a different USB port; and/or
the memory chip in the phone is damaged.

Borked nand. If the rom and cable are known to be good and 2 pc's fail then dead nand. It's unfortunate but it happens.
Beamed in by telepathy

I think the phone is dead, it have faught a lot in this years. Thank you anyways

[Q] Rooting has gone wrong - where to look for possible solutions?

Hi all,
Firstly, I apologise if this is the wrong forum to post this question but with so many forums it's very hard to know which is the right one! I hope I've found it.
I've been reading around and researched how to root my Galaxy S II. In the Phone --> About my phone is 2.6.35.7-I9100 BVKG3-CL344296 so I downloaded CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG3-v4.1-CWM4.zip which appears to be the right kernel for what I'm doing. I've downloaded Odin v1.85 and launched the phone in download mode.
All seemed to be going well and Odin saw the phone. I put the above file in the PDA section and left all the check boxes alone. I pressed Start and the little green bar got bigger with 'KERNEL' in the text box above. I got the following in the message area:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> RES OK !!
<ID:0/004> Completed..
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0)
<ID:0/004> Removed!!
The phone rebooted and now it is stuck on the very first screen with the yellow warning sign. I have tried to put the stock kernel back on, Kernel_I9100BVKG3.TAR, but it makes no difference. The phone is currently bricked.
Can anyone help?
Cheers,
Richard.
Did you put the .ZIP file into the PDA section?
You have to extract the .ZIP, so you get a .tar file, it's that .tar file you need to put into the PDA section.
Put your phone into download mode and try flashing said .tar file with Odin again.
Thanks for the reply, HellcatDroid.
I actually managed to figure out what was going on following that post. I had a sneaking suspicion that the USB ports on my computer weren't acting right so I tried flashing the phone again on one of my laptops and it worked straight away.
Just goes to show that you can research all the likely causes and outcomes and ultimately find out that it's something that you really wouldn't expect normally.
I appreciate your offer of help, though.

I think you have put clockworkmodmod on the phone and a custom kernel, that is why a yellow triangle shows up. I suggest that you should put the phone into recovery mode. It is the same key actions as download mode but you press the up volume button instead of the down button.When you have that up and running you will have options to install file from sdcard, mount, wipe delvik cache and other things. If you have this, in orange colour, then pull your battery out to switch off phone.
Your phone is not bricked.
It depends which country you live in to download the correct system.
Get back on here with the info and I will progress with you.

[Q] Firmware doubt??

I bought my phone last night and it had XXKG1 firmware on it, but the phone was originally CLARO PR branded. If i want to go back to stock which firmware do i have to use.
I want to go back to stock because i got myselft stuck on boot screen an Odin doesn't seem to want to flash any firmwares after the process Nand Writing. I can't get in recovery, but i can easily get on download mode.
I already tried unistalling and reinstalling drivers, tried with different firmwares all of them seem to fail at the same process. I can still flash kernels but the phone won't pass the boot screen.
My last hope is to send someone fo a JTAG but i dont wanna pay 50 bucks because it isn't hard brick!
So Please help me!!
Have you closed Kies from the system tray before trying to flash? Also are you using the Samsung USB cable?

[Q] Bootloop issue? Unable to fix!

Hi guys...
I think I have a bootloop issue that I can't resolve. I know I know... but hear me out!
Mine is a UK I9100 on Orange/T-Mobile. I have previously rooted my stock 2.3.3 SG2 without issue. The other day I flashed the official firmware to get 2.3.4 and all went well, except it removed my root access. So I went about rooting it again... except somewhere along the line I screwed it up...
So now I have a phone that won't enter recovery mode. It just sits at the SGS2 logo with the yellow ! triangle in it. It WILL go into download mode however... so I've been attempting to flash some kernels.
I head over to "[READ THIS] Got a Boot Loop? Don't post a New Thread!" as my first port of call. I head over to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113928 and scroll down to Orange, and then the UK. I'm a little unsure which of the 3 downloads to pick (BVKE2, BVKG3 or BVKJ4) as I thought I had KI4... I could been mistaken though.
I download GT-I9100_ORA_I9100BVKJ4_I9100ORAKJ4_I9100BVKJ4.rar, extract the tar, enter download mode, start Odin 1.85, put the file in PDA, connect the phone and hit start.
This is what I get:
<ID:0/005> Added!!
<ID:0/005> Odin v.3 engine (ID:5)..
<ID:0/005> File analysis..
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/005> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/005>
<ID:0/005> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? My custom binary download is currently reading 23... I'll apologise now if this has already been covered, but I've spent a good number of fruitless evenings of trying, searching, reading and I'm frustrated as hell.
[EDIT] I've also been through the "[GUIDE] Fix an unflashable or soft bricked GSII" guide but that didn't resolve my issue either.

[Q] [Problem] Frozen memory?

Hello,
since a few days my GT-P7510 reboots suddenly and falls back into the status before last reboot. That means all settings, copied files/apps are gone and all deleted files/app are restored. It looks like my memory is somehow frozen in a specific status from a few days ago.
I didn't try to root it or something like that. It start all of a sudden.
Thats what I tried so far to solve the problem:
1.Hard Reset with normal method and factory reset with the bootloader (Power button and Volume down menu). No effect at all.
2. Try to root my tab with the manual from this forum. I'm able to flash cwm. At least odin gives no error. But when I reboot cwm isnt flashed. The normal bootloader appears again. So, I have no chance to wipe my tab on this way.
3. Flash stock rom via Odin. That's when I get a Error-Message from odin an my Tab. Error-Message: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/822/camerazoom2012062021092.jpg/ But I dont know what it means and havent found it out so far.
I tried several stock roms, read several forums, google etc but no one seems to have a real solution.
I found one guy here http://www.galaxytabforums.net/forum/galaxy-tab-10-1-general-discussions/4260-my-gt-useless-impossible-hard-reset-delete-create-files-etc.html and one guy here in this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1576134.html who have similar problems. But as I said nothing helped yet.
Btw, the data on my tab isnt important so I wouldnt have any problem with a solution which wipes everything. The main thing is that my tab is working properly again. Hopefully one of you experts has an idea.
Thanks in advance
This is pretty weird. Maybe your filesystem is corrupted. You may try to flash a .pit file first. But it could well be a h/w problem. If it's under warranty sent it to Samsung.
Sent from my amazing 10.1 galaxy tab
I tried it with this pit-file: android_fastboot_emmc_full_p4_16G_32G.pit
But I'm not quite sure if its the right one.
In connection with this ROM: P7510XABKMP_P7510UEKMP_HOME.tar, I got those error messages:
<ID:0/009> File analysis..
<ID:0/009> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/009> Initialzation..
<ID:0/009> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/009> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/009> boot.img
<ID:0/009> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/009> bootloader.bin
<ID:0/009>
<ID:0/009> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
And in red on my tab:
Bct_sync_Odin: Error toNvBuBctUpdate![Err:0x140005]
DownloadPartition_Odin: Error to Bct_sync_Odin![err:0x140005]
Tegra_Nand_Write: Error to DowloadPartition_Odin![err:0x140005]
Buildnumber of my tab is HTJ85B.UEKMP P7510UEKMP. So it should be right ROM?
From what I know, you should first use the pit without the rom. Then flash the rom. You should also try a different usb port on your pc and the tab shouldn't be in a dock or a usb hub. That's one of the reasons the flash fails.

SAMSUNG SM-J250F/DS Stucked on Boot Loop (NO ACCESS TO RECOVERY BOOTING ALSO)

Hello , I've searched for any similar threat the whole night but I couldn't find any with the same problem as mine!
I was trying to root my Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime Pro SM-J250F/DS.
After enabling OEM Unlock and USB Debugging,
I used Odin to flash TWRP , Odin executed the file without any problem and stated PASS.
BUT when I try to boot on recovery mode, I still had the basic samsung recovery mode.
I tried to flash it severals times, each time showed pass, but the same recovery mode was still there.
I couldn't find anyone else facing this problem on any other forum neither.
I decided to try other root's threat that I found on other forum where I was suggested to download an image.tar.md5 then flash it with Odin for rooting process of my phone.
After I did this , the operation was PASS but upon booting up my device, my phone was on boot loop :'(
I tried being cautious all the way to root this reading every information carefully to avoid this kind of problems, but still I fail
I dont know what to do, I spent the whole night looking for answers on the web but I couldnt find anything similar.
I cant even enter recovery mode it booting all over again. I only have access to download mode.
Thus, I tried to download a fresh firmware from samsmobile, I dont know how to do to know which Country/PDA/CSC to choose from
I tried to download a random one and flash it with odin but the operation failed and here's the logs;
