Option 1: Reboot your computer and retry
Option 2: Use another USB port and try
Option 3: Use another/original USB cable and try
Well after these 3 options are exhausted..only option left is SC as it means your NAND is corrupted..

4 2
5 Original usb cable
6 i cannot enable debugging mode because the phone always freezes and reboot
7. i cant see if its enabled i cant get to settings menu because it always freezes
8. my firmware is originaly branded
9 yes i installed a latest samsung drivers
10 the phone keeps freezing then reboots, if i try hard reset it does nothing, its not rooted, im just browsing in playstore the suddenly it freezes then i tried to do a soft reset it freezes then reboot
i tried to bring the phone to the samsung service center here in philippines but they said they dont have a firmware that match my phone, they can only restore a samsung s3 that came from asia, i think mine is made in spain or mexico, i do not really know but the user manual that comes from the box is in spain language, and the samsung technician said that the only solution is change the main board but they are afraid that it might not work properly if they install a board that came from asian version of s3, and they said that as of now they dont have a board to replace my board, (sorry for my bad english)
thanks a lot guys

That thread is for Verizon SGSIII..have you checked with OP that if it works with GT-I9300?
are you able to go into recovery stock/CWM..if yes..connect to adb... go to shell and type mount..
see the permissions for /dev/block/mmcblk0p09 whether it is ro or rw..if yes then you will have to follow that thread but contact the op first as the two bootchain files are not for GT-I9300

Toolkit for using adb to perform few main operations (push, pull, dump, flash, root, etc). It is usefull if you don't know how to use terminal adb semantic.
Read about it here:
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703488
PS. Befor flashing, launch Odin with Administrator rights (right mouse clic on shortcut or program file - Run as Administrator).
Also remember to store all files in C: drive with short path:
C:\Flash\Odin\...
C:\Flash\Firmware\firmware_version\...
Do not use paths with spaces or unusual chars.

i follow carefully every single step and options that you give, but still doesent work :crying: im losing hope to ressurect this phone :crying: but thank you for your help..
any other suggestions?

---

Im affraid that you can not do anything more without USB debugging enabled and with no possibility to use service codes.
You cant use adb functionallity in this case which will be your last hope.
Have you tried all Odin versions, even 1.3? You can try to use another data cable, it is standarized and should work one from other phone or even camera - miniUSB to USB.
Maybe you wil find gsm center with riftbox or something simmilar to flash your device.
I'm out of ideas what else can help you.

I have tried the process through kies, the same thing happens as when i try to flash via odin, the process bar goes straight to full and freezes there.
In odin it says NAND write start though. nothing appears to be working
