Where can we get that version of Odin mentioned in the doc though?

Many days may just have been saved here.

Does this JTAG file has a main thread here in XDA with more detailed information and all the necessary files?
Because this guide tell you to get some files into an external micro SD card, which are not available here. Also, it says connect "Anyway JIG", what is this jig? it says that this jig is powered by a power supply.. so where can I get this "Anyway JIG"?
I mean, how come there is still no jtag for the I9300?
Thanks

All the JTAG does is force the phone into download mode. If you can already get into download mode, JTAG wont hep you with anything.
If you're having a problem flashing things in download mode, and you've read the return to stock guides, search for your Odin error here. If still nothing, create your own thread for support.

http://forum.gsmhosting.com/vbb/f63...9250-galaxy-nexus-gt-i9100g-gt-i9300-1465412/
Found this with more details...
Meanwhile someone saw JTAG dump?
Because rumours about unsecured I9300 floating around... without Password...
Maybe these Tizen Testdevices...

On Label under battery you can find FCC ID from:

It was the main circuit board that went wrong and the Samsung repair fixed it it was also due to the leaked 4.2.2 firmware causing the device to get over heated now have my phone back and its not heating up at all on 4.1.2 and my sd problem was due to the over heating I had to replace the sd 4 times at a cost of £100.00 just over then had charging problems which was due to the supplied with the phone having a break in it then found out that using one of my old lg gt540 usb wire works perfectly with the usb mains adapter with no more problems at all but I am looking forward to 4.3 and some of the new features hope this post can help a few more people as it took me 3weeks to find any info on charging this phone

No download mode or recovery?
Tried a USB Jig?
If none work, a JTag might save it, not sure on .pit files, whether it kills the motherboard or not.
May have to be a Samsung repair job...

Are you happy enough to make the Jig? They can be bought on eBay for £2 (very cheap wherever you are from).
There is a website called mobiletechvideos.com, they are based in America but they deal with these types of bricks.
As I said, not sure if a bad .pit file flash kills the motherboard or not. But try the Jig first and see if there is any response.

Don't always expect a lie to work, but I suppose if you don't want the hassle of trying to fix it, the repair centre is a phone call away...

The problem is not the cost of jig cable but the time that I need to wait before receive it. I if I try myself maybe that I can save one week and, if this trick don't work, and I will send the galaxy s2 in the Samsung services...
I'm member of Samsung exclusive.. I hope to save some days..
Anyway... I hope to solve with a jig cable.. In the meantime I have found a basic smartphone from my friend.. Just to make a tethering and use my asus transformer for all the normal operation...
But.. Just for my information.. How a wrong file can generate a hardware problem in the motherboard?
I repeat...I'm really very stupid! I have make this operation a lot of times... And without attention I have make this operation yesterday... @##@#....
Thanks guys.. If some people have some extra idea... Reply me please!
Sam
You could be surprised the damage flashing wrong .pit file can do. I suppose doing what Jokesy said would be worth a try.

Correct me if I'm wrong as I just got my S3 yesterday, but if you had a USB Jig, wouldn't you be able to force download mode to flash a new ROM via Odin? Read this link, I'm not 100% sure though. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402286
Try using a USB jig.. it may be just a softbrick. But if the USB jig does not do the trick, then you my friend have hardbricked your phone. To get this fixed, you have to get JTAG services near you.. or if you are on warranty, maybe sending it to your service center will be less of a hassle

You can make a jig and force download mode just Google it, its only a resistor between two connections on the plug!

If you manage to revive it through a jig: please make sure you got the i9300 S3 not another model, since they are not compatible!
There's been talk about booting the Galaxy phone's bootloader from a specially formatted sdcard and with a rather uncommon jig ohmage, but I'm not sure it applies to the s3

I think it does, if I'm not mistaken it was a leak of the official jtag documentation
Op look in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1891197 then see if anyone near you had a jig. Then contact them to borrow their jig instead of making one.

Bricked! Pls HELP

I'm not sure where to post this,pls move to the right place.
I'm afriad my galaxy s2 is either damaged or bricked.I tried to flash the leaked official jelly bean via Odin,am sure i selected the right files and when i clicked on START,i waited for over 40mins and nothing happened,so i closed odin,unplugged my phone,removed the battery and reinserted it,and the phone has refused to switch on.I think i have tried to flash to a non compactible baseband.
Please is there anything i could do to get my phone to work again?
Any advice is appreciated,Thanks.

When i extracted the file i downloaded,there are about 5 files and according to the guidelines,you click on PDA and select a file named CODE,click on phone and select a file named PHONE,then CSC and PIT,these are four files that was used.Then the Md5 file wasn't used though it's among the files that was extracted but was not asked to use.My phone is galaxy GT-i9100.
Thanks for your help.
Can you enter recovery or download mode? I Once flashed S3 kernel on my S2 and it looked like it was bricked. No power not even charging but then I entered in download mode and flashed correct kernel via odin.

Thanks.
If you spend money on a RIFF box, unless you know what you're doing/have done it before more than a few times, there's a fair chance you'll both pay for something you'll never use again & bork your phone beyond repair.
Pay someone else a quarter of the cost & have them do it/successfully fix your phone (assuming it can be JTAG'd & isn't a MB replacement job).

[Q] [Galaxy S2 bricked] Need tool

Hello,
My Samsung Galaxy S2 is bricked. No way to enter download or recovery mode. Black screen... nothing to do to fire it.
Probably the bootloader is corrupted.
Does exist a tool for Exynos 4210 / S5PC210 like the one from Adam Outler "Unbrickable" for Exynos 3110 / S5PC110 ?
Thank you,
Guillaume
Ps. no need to answer about JIG, it doesn't work in this case of figure. JTAG tools exist... Yes I know! thank you BUT needs to solder a tiny tiny JTAG connector... and I don't own a RIFF JTAG Box nether a schematic of JTAG pinpoints on Galaxy S2 mother board...
No way you can fix it. Take it someone who does JTAG repairs or get the MB replaced.
Tell us what you did, so we can learn from your experience.

I flashed it longtime ago to ICS 4.03 / rooted with ODIN v3 - no problem at all.
Few weeks ago it crashed during firefox update... I reboot it, it crashed during the boot. I reboot it again and it got bricked!
That's nice, it just died on you?
Warranty is generally for two years...maybe there's still hope for you.

Hey. Once this problem happened with i9100G and i fixed it without jtag. It wasnt entering at download mode but when i turn it on and that sign keeps exist, i connectes it to laptop and odin recognized it. I installed software via odin again and it got fixed! Never seen like that!! Was flashing without being in download mode. Try it and i wish it will work

[Q] SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 GT-I9300 lost PIT partitions

hey all i seem to be in need of some help
i have purchased a white samsung galaxy s3 GT I9300
it was ment to be just a simple re-install of the operating system but it would seem there is something more
going on here from what odin is telling me that some how not sure why or how but the samsung phone has lost all partitions(PIT)
it freezes on start up at the screen that shows samsung galaxy s3 GT - I9300 so i went to odin to flash with official os for the phone
but then odin fails with cannot find PIT files my device is a 16gb device
also in download mode the spec list of the device shows product name as blank, and binary samsung offical but the next line states custom
but most disturbing is that device name is blank i know it shouldnt be
also the charge port seems to be half broken it will connect to computer in download mode but will not charge the battery through cable
so my question is im guessing i should get the charge port replaced
and then how do i go about fixing my s3
any and all help appreciated here
Sounds like you might have a damaged phone.
If your sure its a pit problem flash this emergency firmware.
This is a last resort type firmware.

Oh I missed that bit. If the port gets fixed try a standard stock rom first. The one I gave you is for emergency's only.

Thats in very rare cases. 90% of the time flashing a standard stock rom will solve issues.
