Do this exactly....
- Leave USB Cable plugged into PC, but NOT INTO PHONE...
- pull battery from phone
- hold down VOLUP & VOLDOWN and do not let go
- insert battery...do not let go of VOLUP & VOLDOWN
- insert USB Cable into phone...do not let go of VOLUP & VOLDOWN
So long as nothing is totally bork'd you should see download mode pop up in a few seconds at this point..if so..you can let go now.

Ok....try getting it back to download mode as I described....
Are you using Odin3 v1.00 or v1.30? Depending on your version of Windows, the phases of the moon and all sorts of randomness having v1.0 stall at cache.rfs can be a common occurence.
Try using Odin3 v1.30 located here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=790026 if you are using v1.00. I've had much better luck with this version on x64 boxes...

I am following the instructions from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810130
When I follow all the instructions ODIN gets stuck here:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
What am I doing wrong? I used ROM Manager and Clockwork Recovery to flash Nerov5 and want to go back to stock. Help!
reboot your computer, restart odin and try again.
Sometimes that works.
What version of odin are you using?
I keep v3 1.0, 1.3 and 1.52 handy
1.52 usually works best for me but sometimes depending what I flashing I need to use 1.0
good luck
Just tried the restart but still have the same problem. I'm using ODIN v3 1.0...I'll try 1.52 and see if that helps.
Odin 1.52 gave me this:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
It stopped there. Thanks for your help so far...any other suggestions?
To anyone who is interested I figured out the problem. The instructions in the original post were unclear about going into download mode. To get into download mode you HAVE to do this IN THIS ORDER:
Take the battery out of the phone.
Connect the battery-less phone to your computer via USB cable
Press and HOLD both volume keys (volume up AND volume down)
Do NOT touch the Power key!
Insert the battery while simultaneously holding the volume keys.
Profit.
If you don't do it this way you won't get into download mode. Everything works fine from there.
Ok so im total noob but i need help! I rooted my Vib then tried installing a new rom... i didnt delete anything like i was supposed to so when the rom was finished my vibrant re booted and was way discolored it finally booted but then kept re booting constantly. I then went into download mode and tried flashing back to original with various tar files using odin... Now i cannot get into download mode ive tried every way. when i power the vibrant on now it says: Galaxy S gtI9000... which probably isnt good... considering its the vibrant.. it then boots into recovery mode and none of the options work and down is now up and up is down on my volume to select choices. this is what it says:

What bootloader are you using? the froyo one or gingerbread?
i was originally 2.2 froyo if that is what you mean
I'm just curious what you were flashing, in terms of whether you were going to Gingerbread ROM or sticking with a Froyo rom. Sounds similar to a time where I messed up flashing my phone in odin, and since it was a gingerbread bootloader, I forgot that download mode had changed. If you are the same case as I was, then download mode is up volume and power. If its another thing, I probably won't be the best, but I'm sure someone around here will know what to do.
I believe it was Darkys_v10.1_Extreme_Edition rom... When i hold volume up and power then put my usb in it says: POWER RESET or UPLOAD MODE. I just now tried opening odin a com was recognized i opened a pit and a pda and it sayed:
<ID:0/011> Added!!
<ID:0/011> Odin v.3 engine (ID:11)..
<ID:0/011> File analysis..
<ID:0/011> SetupConnection..
and nothing happens lol... thx for the quick responces btw
What I did way before I started flashing roms, is I purchased a download mode jig I never had to use it but I have it just in case.
Try pulling the battery.
Then open odin on the computer. While holding the lower volume button down, plug the phone to the computer.
Odin should recognize the phone and just go back to stock from here. Make sure you read up on going back to stock first. You should check this thread out. It has alot of useful info.

You need to get back into download mode and flash back to stock. Make sure you download what ever rom you are trying to use from another source. Some of the files could be corrupt. Also make sure you do your research!!! READ READ and if you think u know it all... READ some more!
It doesn't hurt to ask people questions on these forums but you have to know what files you have and what you want your phone to be 2.2/2.3/2.3.4 based rom, Start slow go from stock 2.1 to 2.2 then try the CyanogenMod. TAKE your time! You'll be fine GL
I cannot get into download mode. I just bought a jig hopefully that works
Hope it works as well. I've seen phones in this case require JTAG so if you need that let me know. I have an order from a Mike G from last night so maybe that's you. If so, it will go out Monday...
yeah thats me
That happened to me once to, all I did was Google how to get into dowload mode the i9000 way, try it while your jig is still on it's way

WOW!!!!! This just worked.... I downloaded a reg edit.... YAY!!!!!!
sigh!!!!! i had it working perfectly (almost) apart from being in i9000 format.... i downloaded rom manager from the market installed selected reboot into recovery and now im BACK stuck in recovery and cant get kies mini to read the phone... so i uninstalled kies mini and still nothing after reinstalling it.. keep in mind in recovery mode volume up is volume down... i can toggle between options but power does nothing unless i hold it.. then it just restarts into recovery
im going to try installing kies mini for captivate :O
no luck back to waiting for the jig

Hi guys,
yes i know i am a noob, but i have rooted phone with one click and never had this problem before
i have an att note and was trying to root of odin
went through all the process, ODIN even Gave me the green light pass
and reboot the phone, its just that the phone never came back on
so i went in to manually power phone on all i get now is the samsung logo and it reboot
i have tried taking the battery out nothing
it won't even let me get back to the vol down+ Power and Home screen download screen.
guys i don't maybe i may have broke this phone
anything i can do to fix this problem..
please guys help me. sorry for double POST
Plug USB cable into computer.
Take battery out of phone.
Plug USB cable into phone.
Hold down Volume Down button.
While holding Volume Down, put battery into phone.
This should put you into Download mode.
...............
When reflashing back to stock or a recovery through Odin, make sure you always have drivers installed before you do anything. Also make sure to run Odin as adminstrator. Also in odin make sure that in the box labeled ID:COM, that you have a port show up in that box.
Also make sure you have REPARTITION, F. RESET TIME, FLASH LOCK, PHONE EFS CLEAR AND PHONE BOOTLOADER UPDATE unchecked. Also make sure that you loaded your .tar file under PDA and not any other box.

Something that might help is to go into your recovery and reset the phone to default and wipe the cache's...male sure there's no leftovers in there.

The file you flashed is possibly corrupted.
Use the Odin3 to flash CWM recovery then flash root kernel. Everything you need is in Bigjoe's Super Everything thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28040353
Look under the big green arrow in the first post.
I turned over this morning in bed to find my S3 had failed an uncalled encryption process (one benefit of all this is that I had an excellent night's sleep as my alarm did not go off (that said I got to work 2 hours late)).
The error message:
"Encryption failed
Unable to complete encryption due to interruption. Perform factory data reset before use. After resetting, try encrypting device again."
If I hit 'reset device' it either gets stuck on boot screens or, if I then take the battery out and restart, it eventually shows this error message again. Once but only once I got a linux looking menu offering options to reboot, reset the phone, attempt recovery etc. I chose to reboot as I thought this might get out of this data encryption failing lock. Unfortunatley after that it went back to booting to this error screen.
Note: I have never tried to root this phone and have not done any non-standard actions to it at any point, it runs the stock Samsung system, updated to Jelly Bean a little while ago.
Breaking my rule of avoiding rooting/roms (for warranty / insurance's sake (I used to root my old android phones, just not this Samsung S3)) I followed an article on CNET called "How to recover a bricked Samsung Galaxy S3" (can't link to it in this post) to try and restore the standard Samsung Rom, it did not work. I also tried rooting it. Both times I got this error as the process failed mid way:
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/004> Initialzation..
<ID:0/004> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/004> recovery.img
<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/004> cache.img
<ID:0/004> FAIL!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
I have since tried:
- different versions of Odin (3.07, 1.87, 1.85),
- standard samsung one: KIES_HOME_I9300XXEMC2_I9300OXAEMC2_1042335_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5
- two root files: CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.tar.md5 and CF-Root-SGS3-v6.3.tar
All fail, either not working at all or getting the above messages.
So
1) What would have caused the encryption process to start and then fail
2) Can I fix this? Why is the rooting or restoring standard samsung rom failing?
3) If not, willl Vodafone/ Samsung fix this under warranty (bearing in mind I did not root this phone originally, nor has it been rooted (trying to root it fails!) (I also have insurance but figure they won't cover this.
Thank you!

Aha, so that is the screen I saw this morning once when it rebooted randomly.
I've just tried it multiple times (watched various youtube videos of how too) - the samsung logo comes up, then screen goes black, then samsung logo again - in loop. That's if I hold buttons down for a while, constantly or release after a few seconds.
Thanks

Hey
So if you can access recovery mode (vol up+home+power) till it boots and then release all the buttons when it starts booting..
Use vol keys to move selection up and down..and use power button to select..
Move to "wipe data/factory reset" and use power button to select..
After it completes chose reboot system now..
This should probably solve your issue..

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I cannot access the recovery mode (I did once when the issue first started occuring, this appeared to have been pot luck, now I cannot access it). If I do it now it just cycles between showing the boot logo and a black screen, whether I hold the buttons or press them for a short amount of time (I know I'm doing it right).
Is there a way of remotely triggering it or similar?

Pass. Probably not - I can't remember ever doing it on my S3 (have done it on previous androids).
I've only every connected via USB for accessing the SD.
This is annoying as it's obviously not totally bricked - when the Enryption failure messages come up I can adjust volume (i.e. it shows the volume slider etc), a sound happens when I click the 'reset' button. This said I can't launch recovery mode.
Thank you for all your help!
P.S. I have tried from 2 other PCs now and another KIES stock Samsung Rom - all failed too.
Hey
That probably means that USB Debugging is off on your phone..else Odin3 would have picked it up..
I guess only a pro or samsung can help you now..

I just wanted to chime-in and say that my SGS3 did exactly the same thing last night. I woke up this morning (amazingly, before my alarm would have gone off), to find it sitting at the same error message after attempting to encrypt itself. Since then, after doing the reset, the phone has been unstable, with frequent lockups. No idea what's happened.
hi peeps
1st time ever handling a andriod device. given a galaxy s3 that was just flashing the splash screen in a loop.
history is that phone was downloading an app, but fiald and crashed the phone. the battery was pulled out and thats when the flashing samsung splash screen loop started.
did a little research and downloaded both odin3 and kies. tried flashing with odin3 but keeped getting a failed message.
tired kies firmware upgrade and initialization option, add the model number and s/n as required. but process goes so far and says "THIS DEVICE VERSION CAN NOT BE UPDATED"
as stated, new to the andriod scene, so all hell very much appreciated.
Your help is online, you can read it…

He meant recovery mode on the phone,
1. Remove the battery and leave the phone for a couple of minutes to fully discharge then put it back in
2. Hold Volume Up + Home + Power together until the phone boots up then release the buttons and it will go into recovery
3. Use the volume button to move up and down the list of option
4. Find Factory Reset, highlight it then press the power button to start the process
The phone will hopefully reboot properly after this but it will have wiped the data as that is what factory reset does.

If you are pressing them all at the same time it may be the power button is powering the phone, just to make sure press the volume up and home button then whilst holding them down press the power button so that you are holding all 3 down that way.

Can you enter "Download" mode?
- Hold Vol Down + Home button and keep holding it
- Press and hold power button (all 3 buttons)
- Leave them when you are shown a warning
- Press Vol Up to enter download mode
If you can enter download, then I can suggest flashing stock firmware from Odin
- Start up Odin (I se 3.07)
- Load up the downloaded stock rom and wait till it is complete
- Connect the phone (should be in download mode)
- You'll see "Added" status
- Only 2 options should be selected (Auto Reboot and Reset Time) nothing else
- "Start"
PS: If you're on 4.1 then I recommend staying on 4.1 esp if you flash a lot of roms. Stay away from the official 4.3 otherwise you might get radio/baseband issues later on which cause network issues.

Your emmc chip is corrupt or damaged, the NAND write fail message is the proof.
Try flashing the rescue firmware (search in general forum), but follow the guide exactly as it includes a pit file.
If that fails then you need a new motherboard.

Can you access recovery now? if yes, try a "factory rest/data wipe" option and reboot
If this doesn't work, then you'll need a rescue firmware from here.
As previously mentioned: Use it with a lot of care.

thanks got that now. but while i waited for reply, i flashed International-GT-i9300-StockRecovery again and it run thru a load of writing scrolling down the screnn. ened up giving me think it was 5 options, one being reset/data wipe option. done that and the reboot option after that but it hangs on the splash screen.
so tried to flash the pit file and others i downloaded for recovery, tried flashing them and cam up with this log:
