Hey guys
I got the notification that a new update is available for my stock GT-I9300 (Vodafone New Zealand) a few days ago. When I clicked on install it complained because I was on mobile data and so I decided to wait until I am at home. But when I got within range of a wifi it must have automatically downloaded and installed the update, because the next time I pulled the device out of my pocket it was stuck at the initial boot screen.
I have since tried to do a firmware recovery through Kies, which downloaded the firmware and then failed to install it saying that it does not know the device or something along those lines (I unfortunately did not save a screenshot of the exact message). Then I tried Odin, which simply fails with the log output below. I know that this is a ROM for the UK, but I haven't found a ROM for NZ yet and thought that it might work anyway.
The status printed when I go into the recovery mode is a bit strange:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME:
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
Why is there no product name and why is the system status "custom"? I have only had the phone for three weeks and I have not rooted or flashed it yet.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated

I am trying to install the original firmware through Odin, but I always get the error message shown at the end of my original post. When I try it a second time directly after it failed, then it does not complain about the PIT but instead fails to connect to the COM port:
<ID:0/011> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/011> Can't open the serial(COM) port.

I have gone through the process of taking out the battery, reinserting it, going into download mode, connecting it to all USB ports on my laptop and trying to flash several times now, always with the same result
I am currently downloading another ROM (I9300XXALF6_I9300ITVALF1_ITV). Maybe that'll work...?

Doesn't look like your computer found your phone, remove/reinstall the USB drivers. You can use KIES, click troubleshoot connection, it will reinstall them.
Hope that helps,

P.S> Make sure ODIN is not open when you run KIES and make sure KIES isn't open when you run ODIN.

Odin says "<ID:0/011> Added!!" (or some other port of course) whenever I connect the phone, doesn't that mean that it detected the phone?
I actually did the troubleshoot connection in Kies yesterday and it reinstalled the driver. I have since removed Kies (not the driver) from my computer, as I thought that this might be the reason why Odin fails.
Ok I am getting really desperate, I have spent a large part of the weekend trying to get this to work and still no luck. Any further suggestions would be highly appreciated
I have re-installed the USB driver a few times now and Kies is not installed to make sure that there are no conflicts between ODIN/Kies. I have also found a ROM for Vodafone NZ (I9300XXALE8_I9300VNZALE4_VNZ) which is where I got the phone.
ODIN detects when I plug the phone into my computer, but fails with the following:
<ID:0/011> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/011>
<ID:0/011> There is no PIT partition.
<ID:0/011> Added!!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
What is the cause for this error and do I need a PIT file and do a re-partition to fix it?
Is it normal that when in download mode, the product name shown on the phone screen is empty?
Thanks!
Your partition table is corrupted. No point trying to fix.
Quickly send to samsung to reflash your phone.
So there is no way I can fix this myself (without risking to make things worse)?
I am not a happy Samsung customer right now, all this time wasted because I installed an official over the air update and who knows how long it'll take to get it fixed...
Thanks for your replies.

You are in a position now where further repairs by yourself are even more likely to end up with no warranty .
Phone broke during official update return under warranty .
Flashing other firmwares risks invalidating warranty .

Hi forum,
I'm having big problems with my galaxy tab 10.1 p7510. I was transferring files from my pc to the tab, the tab stop responding, I pulled the usb cable (big mistake). After that the tab wouldn't boot. Went into android recovery and wiped cache, some errors appeared and I wasn't able to turn on the tab for about a day. I held down the power button for a really long time and it went into a boot loop. Was able to get into recovery again, wiped cache again; since then I couldn't get into recovery any longer. But, I have been able to get into download mode. I downloaded the latest ROM (and the one before it) from sammobile.com; tried flashing both using odin 1.83, 1.85, and 1.87. Tried two different computers and various usb ports for each computer. installed drivers and kies, made sure kies was disabled when attempting flash. Result is always the same:

Should note, when i power off and power on, some red text appears quick (can't see it) and it automatically goes into download mode. At the top it says, "reason no kernel"
Please help!

What exactly were you transferring? Were you flashing a new ROM, restoring a backup or adding an update?
No, I was just transferring videos from pc to tab via usb. It froze, but I think it was when I tried to clear cache in android recovery that things went down hill. There are some known problems with factory resets with galaxy tabs due to a faulty chip. Maybe it was that? who knows. I actually was able to get Samsung to take it in on warranty (though it's past warranty). So, that's the end of that...

In that case, congratulations and better luck next time.
I have never rooted my phone, always used official updates. Upgraded to Android 4.1.1 last night and after few hours my phone just stuck wiht the "Samsung Galaxy S3 startup logo". The phone wont reboot at all. I tryed to factory reset (volume up + home + power), wont work.. one time it tryed to do something and failed. I can boot to odin download menu and i tryed to reset to official stock firmare and it says something about partition corrupted or broken. After that i tryed again with the new partition option, it failed again. Is there anything i can do to get this phone working again?

Send it back for repair if you've never routed or anything. It can likely be fixed by routing and whatnot but if you've never done it, why risk it.

Send it for repairs and wait for several weeks to get it back? Very tempting. :cyclops: Lets call that plan B.
If i can do something to wake this baby up today or tomorrow i'll take it.
It sounds like you somehow softbricked your phone without even rooting it lol.
Anyway, if you can go into ODIN download mode, you might wanna try rooting the phone to see if it works. Cos once the phone's rooted, you can easily flash a stock ROM to save it. If you're worried about voiding the warranty, you can unroot the phone after everything's done.
Instructions for unrooting: http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-unroot/how-to-unroot-galaxy-s3-i9300/
Hope this helps!

I did try that and it did not work. Maybe i did something wrong? Dont know... Im pretty sure the problem is with broken partition. I had the Auto Reboot, Re-Partition and F. Reset Time checked. Got file for PIT and got file for PDA. It just wont work. Odin says every time FAILED!
Do not use pit or repartition unless you know what you are doing.

NEVER CHECK RE-PARTITION trololololo .... and never use PIT unless you are know what you doing.
Wow! These "never use PIT unless you are know what you doing"-comments are really helpful. Thank you guys! :good:
Follow the instructions on this site:
http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-root/how-to-root-galaxy-s3/
The site tells you how to root a phone (look at the picture to see what you need/don't need to check; usually all you need to check is Auto-Reboot and nothing else)
After the phone's rooted you can download a ROM from this site http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9300 and flash it into the phone using the same method you flashed the file to root your phone
Thanks for the help. Odin says: "There is no PIT partition" and FAILS.
So i NEED to Re-Partition, any help would be appreciated.

Same thing for me, and I'm stuck with this problem for 2 months now!!!
I read that for some reason unknown, some S3 got these fuc*** motherboards!!!
If u can solve this without samsung service center, please post!!!:good:
Of course you can manage it without Samsng Service center, if you want.
The procedure is:
1. download to PC the I9300 Service Manual;
2. buy motherboard;
3. replace it by yourself.
How it started:
A pop message appears asking to format the phone, I accidentally hit okay, after 10 seconds I realized it, I immediately stopped the process by hitting the back button which caused my phone to go blank screen and freeze. so I pressed and hold power button, and the phone shuts off turns back on then it get stuck on the Samsung Logo/screen and won't go through no matter how long I wait.
So with that said I may have corrupted my Operating System so I went online to try to look for solutions to recover my Note.
i have downloaded Odin v1.85 and v3.07
i have downloaded the latest OS Jellybean from samsung:
(KIES_HOME_I717UCMD3_I717ATTMD3_1117019_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5)
i have downloaded the latest USB software and currently using the original cable that came in the box.
I open Odin v1.85 on my Windows 7 Ultimate Desktop
i put my phone in Odin download mode (power + volume down)
I pressed volume up
I plugged in my phone to the USB
I clicked start
and then I get stuck

i will report back with the outcome.
thanks once again.
okay before i go further if you look at my attachment
first box says "MODEM"
is this normal?
i saw a vid on youtube shows "SYSTEM"
I have read your guide and installed the latest samsung USB driver
I rebooted my computer opened ODIN as admin
followed instructions and i am back to my original post
i think it has something to do with the fact mine shows "MODEM"
this is what i'm talking about.
the difference is on this pic it shows "SYSTEM"
while mine says "MODEM"
does that mean my phone can no longer be recovered?
Am I missing something here? seems like I have a more technical issue/problem other than common Odin problems.
any help would be appreciated.

Are you using the same .tar everytime?
Try another package and see what happens.
Or... just flash a twrp.tar and just flash a custom Rom on that thing.

as long as you can still get into download mode and have odin recognize you, you are in good shape. Dont do something to put yourself in qualcomm download mode. Else, you will be sending your phone to be jtagged. . .
In my guide it mentioned trying different cables and cleaning the usb port.
Have you taken those steps?

Hi All,
I recently got a S3 GT-I9300 from a friend. This was bought from some Romanian provider, so I believe it is the International version. The phone came with already rooted and had CM10 installed. Unfortunately, is not a firmware I enjoy using so, I wanted to install MIUI.
I managed to get MIUI to install and was using it. However, the phone crashed and reset the phone by taking battery out and putting back in.
Problems:
1) Phone does not boot anymore
2) Phone Shows Samsung Galaxy S3 logo and stays on the screen
3) I am unsure what version of the firmware I should be restoring to
4) Phone can boot into download mode but does not show the product name. Here is what I see:

CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: NO
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official

Fixes tried so far:

Try emergency recovery software >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735 << if that fails service repair (product name blank)
I think the problem is, is that ODIN is not actually talking to the phone. While the phone can be made to enter download mode, I believe the phone may have been re-partitioned and everything; as in the phone partition table has been deleted/updated/screw up some how.
I have tried, on numerous occasions to try and full-flash the phone but it has not worked. Will give this a try and update with findings.
Edit 1:
So I downloaded the package from your suggestion and just tried to flash the bootloader. Got an instant fail with:
Code:
<ID:0/004> Added!!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..

any other suggestions guys?
Hello, and excuse my poor English.
I got my hands over a white S3 GT-I9300 running 4.1.2 (I9300XXELLA), the phone was suffering some annoying failures (certain built-in apps crashes after the keyboard is displayed and the phone app dial freezes after you press the call button thus the device make the call), did the wipe/data&cache, factory reset using the settings menu and OTA updates, this last one keeps saying the phone couldn't connect to check updates after several wipes/attempts.
So I followed this tutorial www[dot]android[dot]gs/install-official-xxugna8-android-4-3-jb-on-galaxy-s3-i9300/ (pretty much the same procedures as I re-flashed one of my previous phones, a Galaxy S Duos so I was kinda confident) but instead of the XXUGNA8 update I downloaded the Argentinian variant I9300UBUGNK1_I9300UVOUGNK1_ARO, followed all the steps in the tutorial and ODIN flashed successfully, the phone insta-rebooted for less than one second and stuck there (always rebooting in loop, showing the "Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300" logo for less than one second), tried pulling out the battery, no luck. I can't access the recovery either but can enter in download mode. Also tried the KIES method but after asking the S/N it says "the model information that you have entered cannot be verified, the device initialization cannot proceed."
Tried to flashing it again using the same steps and files but got a NAND write error once and I stopped after that, now I am downloading the XXUGNA8 version at 50kb/s from samsung-firmware page since I started getting a 502 bad gateway error from sammobile's page.
What did I wrong? Can someone point me the necessary steps to repair this phone if there is a fix?
Here's the re-attempt log from ODIN 3.07

Any help would be more than welcome.

Hey brother I also had similar problem today midnight here in india . and i also tried several methods to restore my phone.
i tried kies also but but it required full rom package to download ,as my internet speed is slow I tried other method and it worked. I am very happy now :victory:
just connect your GT-I9300 in download mode. use odin 3.07. download CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.tar.md5 file that we normally use for rooting. Select pda in odin select CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.tar.md5 and click start.
Its just recovery related problem. my entire data is there as it is in my phone.
Hit thanks If I helped you
I'll try it as soon as I can, and let you know if it worked.
For now thanks for the help!

I flashed back to stock yesterday after 2 years of Custom - just felt like it!!
I too got stuck on Samsung logo immedidately after my carrier logo appeared for a couple of seconds.
Tried reflashing again twice - again with Odin - same result
Then I had a thought - why not boot into recovery mode and do a factory reset . I did this, the phone rebooted and immediately it went through 'normal' set up procedure.
Worth a try.

Sorry for the late response! The phone wasn't able to enter recovery, only download mode.
Another not robot here
[UPDATE]
I sold the phone "as is", I got it cheap and sell it almost at the same price so any mod can mark this thread as "Solved".
Easy come, easy go they say.
Regards.
