Hi to all....
I have a very strange behavior from my I9100G. It cut me off, i can`t do anything to it. I can only call, receive calls and txt mesg. if i change the background pic or delete any file like pic or install new app, i loose it if i reboot my device???? even if i take pics or copy files to internal sd i will loose them if i reboot. the device run as if i don`t have admin privilege,
i tried:-
- restore to factory setting( which take me to recovery mode)
- flash original firmware with odin but it stuck every time
- flash custom firmware with odin but it stuck every time
all above failed.
it like as if my device in a loop all changes i mad in the device will removed once rebooted.
i can go to odin mode and recovery mode but with no what so ever ability to flash the rom.
did any one face the same problem ?
any idea how to fix this?
my best wishes
Send it to Samsung

The thing is you flashed a version not meant for your GT I9300. You flashed the Verizon bootchain. Verizon GSIII is Samsung SCH-i535.
Different hardware than a i9300 (Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8260A Dual core CPU, and the i9300 has a Samsung Exynos 4412 Quadcore). Sorry bro. If you still have download mode, you can try flash a i9300 bootloader. If not. you're dead.
Hi xda , i have this china-bought Galaxy S3 GT-I9300.
It started out with gps not working and i tried to flash a stock rom using odin (device was rooted) and it failed after countless flashings.
And then whenever I tried to boot the device again it was stuck at the ''Samsung GALAXY SIII GT-I9300'' screen. not sure if it was a bootloop but it was just hanged there. I have cwm recovery mode but i can't access download mode however i tried. And all of my computers cant seem to detect the device. so basically the thing i am able to access now is the cwm recovery mode. i tried various roms but to no avail.(they all hanged while installing system files)
Some specs about this device i know:
- Board : uniscope77_bu3_cu_ics2
- CPU : armeabi-v7a
some additional info : i once formatted everything on the device using cwm (internal storage , system , everything)
-I tried reset to factory settings countless times too but they were all stuck at the ''Samsung GALAXY SIII GT-I9300'' screen.
-Its original stock firmware was from china and yes , ive tried using china stock rom and all i get was blahblahblah and a ''(bad)'' thing.
if you need anything else like what other things i did to the device pls tell me. pls help me solve this problem thanks you ^_^

Where did you bought it?
China
your screwed the only thing you can do is download Chn_Chn Firmware from Samsungs website and flash it though odin. And that's the only fimrware that will work, unless you flash a custom bootloader through your sd card as then it will overwrite the encrypted boot.img allowing you flash any European Firmware.
Hi
I just got an Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 GSMH from a friend.
The phone is not stolen,barred or tampered with. It was bought from the samsung store in Hing Kong and is around 1 year old.
Its totally stock, no custom ROM and custom binary in download mode says No.
The phone is stuck on the Samsung logo screen and keeps flashing. I can get into both recovery and download mode.
I tried reboot system, wipe cache and factory reset and its still stuck at the logo screen flashing.
When I connect to Kies in download mode it says device not responding and doesnt play ball. Tried all the trouble shoot but still does nothing...
The phone is recognised by Odin 3.07.
I have not tried anything further as I want some good advice so as not to brick the phone by using the wrong firmware!!
Could anyone advise me what to do next? I am guessing I need to flash firmware in Odin.
Do I need to partition with the pit file as well?
Again I would highly appreciate some help and links to the correct firmware for the phone.
Thanks in advance
Mark
This is all p[posted in the faqs and guides ..
First in download mode check product code id nothing there you need a service centre .
Flash stock rom via Odin do not touch PIT .

Solved now
Hi all
thanks for all,
I got the solution , i Flash bootloader with odin.
Now my phone is stared but not getting able to register in Mobile network , seems my IMIE number is lost ,
I have old nandroid backup i am going to restore to store my IMIE
Thanks All for your help
Hate to break it to you, but restoring a nandroid isn't that likely to bring your IMEI back. If you're very lucky, flashing a stock rom for your country/carrier (if you're already running one, flash others) might bring it back if it's a case of temporary IMEI loss. If not, many mobile repair shops (not Samsung service centres) should be able to write the IMEI back to the device relatively cheaply. And if not, a Samsung authorised repairer can do it (or they may replace the motherboard which has already been suggested to you), but that can obviously be somewhat expensive.
Or if lucky op might find a efs backup somewhere in internal memory
So I tried to flash TWRP with Flashr on my J3, but when I booted into recovery a blue screen came up saying that system software not authorized by AT&T was found on your device. I got nervous and decided to flash a stock firmware on to my J3, but it fails every time. I finally got to like 10% but then it failed and a blue screen saying,"An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC Software." Smart Switch crashes every time I put in my serial number though so now I'm stuck with a bricked phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated :fingers-crossed:

Try flashing again with Odin, but this time use older versions, maybe v3.10.6 or v3.09.
Solution
I flashed a random root file that I found on another xda post and it managed to boot.

Next time, try not to flash files blindly, because any file that is wrong can brick your phone.
