Ok this is what I done
GT-I9300 UK 2 weeks old. I install I9300XXDLI 7_I9300OXADLI7_I9300XXDLI7_BTU with Odin all went fine and been using it for about a week but too many bugs on this OTA. So I wanted to downgrade back to I9300BVBLG 2_I9300ORABLG1_ORA everything went fine and I got a green PASS in Odin but when restated the phone would go no further then Samsung welcome screen and then just flashed with the blue led flashing very slow, I left it for 10mins but nothing, just the same. I closed Odin and then tried to reboot the phone..again nothing!! A friend told me to try again but this time with re-partition ticked and use this PIT GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit with I did..hmm I wish I never!! That is when it all went Pete Tong
The phone started to re-partition got a big blue line and STOPPED!! I left it like that for 10mins before closing Odin. Now when I try to flash the phone Odin start but nothing happens!! I have a screenshot of Odin hanging but can not post it here yet
Can someone pls help me :crying:
Have you tried wiping caches/dalvik cache? Can you go t download mode? If yes, then flash the firmware again or flash another firmware.
I hope this helps

First power down your device, Go to stock recovery(Home+power button+volume up), Select factory data reset there, Then go into download mode and flash the stock ics firmware..
Do not select re partition.

I don't know to wipe caches/dalvik cache on this phone cos I have never had to to it before. I flashed my S2 many times without any problems. I can go into download mode but every time I try and flash the phone Odin just hangs

Then your best bet is to connect to samsung kies, If it detects your phone it'll go to recovery mode and will try to restore it, Try connecting it to kies.
And NEVER EVER AGAIN flash the pit file if you don't know what you are doing.... This is the fastest way to brick your shiny toy ...
There are different pit files for different SGS3 models which will destroy your phone.

No every time I try and flash the phone Odin just hangs at this point "NAND Write Start" and nothing happens after this and my SG3 just as a blue line across the screen, plus Odin takes ages to start the upgrade
you probably used the wrong pit file, there are ones for the 16, 32,64Gb models
Find correct pit
Flash it on its own with repartition ticked, no auto reboot
Flash stock 3 part firmware
Hopefully this will sort it

Hi all, I hope you guys can help as I'm coming up blank here after days of trying to fix this.
First, yes I read this thread and a few people were reporting the same problem but the solution was always to flash a stock firmware with odin.
Right now my wife's phone is stuck in a boot loop, she doesn't do anything out of the ordinary with it, I rooted it when she first got it 3 months ago and then flashed a stock kernel to get rid of the yellow triangle and it has worked perfectly until last week when she told me it was stuck at the galaxy s2 logo. No problem I though, I'll just flash a stock rom with odin and all will be well.
Well it didn't work out that way, I've flashed the original firmware, an ICS leak, Villainrom 1.1 and XXKI3 multiple times, with and without pit file + re-partition. I've flashed the old bootloader and I've tried a few custom kernels as well, and multiple combinations of the above. Nothing is getting it past the boot loop. The only result I've had that is any different to how I started is with an ICS build I got a screen saying kernel panic upload (or something like that, I don't have that rom flashed at the moment). When I connect at this time odin recognises the phone so I guess it's in download mode.
I can't get into recovery mode so I can't do a factory reset, when I press vol-up, home and power I get a blank screen for a moment followed by the same boot loop. I can get into download mode and odin is reporting successful on every flash. When I flash a custom rom or kernel I get the yellow triangle, it goes away when I flash a stock rom or kernel.
According to my wife just before the crash android market reported updates available and she installed them. I don't know if that's related or not but she says when she went back to the phone it had hung so she turned off the phone, upon turning it on it was stuck in boot (the big animated purple S part of the boot) so she removed the battery and since then it doesn't get past the initial galaxy S2 screen, sometimes, depending on which kernel it's on, the galaxy screen goes blank for a second or two and then the logo comes back.
I've really tried everything I can think to try, warranty isn't really an option as I'm in Saudi Arabia and I've been told it will take 3 months to get the phone back, also I can't easily access a jig, I'd have to make one and I'm not too confident in my ability to do that.
If anyone has any ideas at this point please help, I can't think of anything else I can do here.
tl;dr random boot loop, tried flashing everything I can find, no recovery mode but download mode works fine, help!

Flash a full wipe firmware and see if that helps, if you need one there is a link at the bottom of my insecure kernel thread.
Thanks Odia,
I just flashed the firmware at the bottom of your thread, I9100XWKE7_CL215725_REV02_user_low. Tried it twice for good measure.
Unfortunately nothing has changed on the phone, still can't get into recovery or past the galaxy s2 logo.

Have you tried with repartition and update bootloader ticked?
I didn't tick either of those this time but I have ticked repartition with a different firmware that came with a pit file. Do I need a pit file or can I tick repartition without it?

You need a pit file, use the 1 from the other firmware.
Ok, I just tried XWKE7 again with a pit file with re-partition ticked. Also tried flashing the old bootloader again with update bootloader ticked.
No change I'm afraid.

Most strange, look like your off to service
That's most unfortunate, I'm in Saudi Arabia and they have quoted 3 months to get the phone back under warranty although in reality I'd be lucky to get it back at all.
Are my options really exhausted or is there anything extreme I can try?
I ended up making a jig and took it for warranty repair and they were able to do it locally, it only took a few days.
The curious thing is even though I repartitioned several times using two different pit files the sdcard partition was still intact.
I'm pretty sure I was doing it right and the yellow triangle was coming and going as I was flashing stock and custom kernels so the flashes were taking.
I don't speak Arabic so I couldn't ask how they fixed it but what do you think was the problem? I was very surprised to find the data intact, it even had the same stock ROM that I flashed before I took it for service still installed.
Anyway thanks for your help in this thread odia.

Hey guys.
I have a GT- i9300, I rooted it in odin with CF root, no worries, installed foxhounds Rom with SiyahKernel. All was fine for a few weeks. My phone then randomly shut down one day and would not boot. (had not installed any 3rd party apps, custom upgrades or anything for a few days).
My phone now only boots to the Samsung splash screen. Will not boot into recovery mode either. Download mode still works
So i tried to re flash the kernel through odin but I get an error "no PIT partition"
Tried flashing a stock Firmware through odin, same error.
Tried flashing CWM again through Odin, same error,
Tried flashing CF root again in Odin, same error.
Any ideas please help???
I have looked all over the net for two days now and found some people with same problem but they have not fixed it yet.
Would a 3-part firmware work in Odin? If so I have downloaded countless ones only to find they are the single .tar file
3 part works via Odin.

Hey Man, I have been searching the net for days now and trying countless different things in Odin but still no Luck. From what I have read if we can find a 3-part firmware +pit file and we flash them through Odin and tick re-partition it should fix it.
Problem being I cant find one, I have asked on other forums and asked Intratech himself but no response yet. If I figure it out though I'll let you know and you do the same for me hey?

hey, no luck for me so far. I am from Taiwan. I have found 5-part stock firmware, which has pit, bootloader, phone, csc, PDA. But it gave me another error: Re-partition operation failed. It seems the partition table has been crashed.
I have returned it for repair(distributor), and I was told that the phone needs to replace the mainboard. And since they told me I have tried to install custom firmware or software, I no longer have the warranty. The fee is unacceptable high, almost half price of the phone.
I will take my phone back and send it to Samsung repair center. Wait and see if any different solutions Samsung can provide me.
I am still looking for other possible solutions, and if I found one, I definitely will share it with you.
The worse thing is the hardware damage. Hope it is not....
Hi,
I'm having the exact same issue...
It happened me after installing CM10 Prev. #4.. I tried to make a phone call to test the sound problem. and suddenly it rebooted into a boot-loop.
After that I tried to re flash the .zip file to get it booting again but i couldn´t even get into {install zip from internal SD Card]
Then i tried to go back to stock with Odin but didn't work..
Tried to repartition with different .pit files on different pc's with different OS. but nothing helped..
I'm planning on returning it too. I hope they will repair it...
i'll let you know and looking forward to hear something from you.
I ended up taking mine back and it got replaced under warranty

You have no choice! Try every pits you got, you might get another error : Re-partition operation failed...
So far, I believe that is hardware damage, and there is nothing you can do but send it back for repair(replacement).
If you have run triangle away before the phone crashed, then you are lucky, You might get replacement under warranty.
I did that before broken. There was no counter, but showed custom rom in download mode.
So it is hard to judge if I flash custom rom or not. The second time I sent my phone back to same repair center, they finally did replacement for me for free.
Good luck to you, and hope it is not hardware damage.

thanks for responses brothers.
i tried 5 different pit files and one of them was GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit.
it didn't help.actually when inserting pit file in odin it says Re-partition operation failed. and when pit place in odin is empty it says there is no PIT partition.
i tried to flash 3 part stock rom,same result.
tried those methods with odin 3.04 and odin 1.85, both of them gave me same result.:crying::crying:
If you always search a 3 parts firmware, try this one:
http://hotfile.com/get/159511026/500faffb/47a90c3/I9300XXALE8_I9300OJVALE7_FWD.zip without and with pit file
(morocoo CSC i think), just in order to test if it's works.
If it is, you'll flash your firmware (CSC THR) here:
http://hotfile.com/get/164216390/500fb0d0/c94977c/I9300XXBLFB_I9300OJVBLF3_THR.zip
If don't work, use warranty...
Just letting you know that i had the Exact same problem.
When trying to flash (when in download mode) it would always error when trying to get the PIT information.
Nothing would work, besides from download mode. When trying to hard reset, it would get to the logo screen and immediately turn off.
It was rooted + cmw + no triangle away. So it could be easily seen that it rooted
I took it back to warranty.
It was a fault motherboard. That was the issue. They replaced it and re-flashed with stock os.
And it was covered under warranty (the best part).
Same I issue I think
Hi. I think I have the same problem with my unrooted, stock S3. (unbranded UK)
Just suddenly apopeared with the grey battery with the static "O" symbol in it, and when booting doesn't get past the first Samsung screen.
Can get into recovery mode, when trying Odin with XXBLG8 stock ICS ROM, I get the "no PIT partition" error.
Please tell me my phone isn't dead :crying:...

Hi guys, i got a little issue with my galaxy i9300 international version, let me tell you what I did and the results to that.
1. Flashed with Cyanomogen 10.1. Working fine.
2. Then, afer a few days, flashed with Paranoid.
3. Phone starts to freeze, so as I didn't know was going on, and tried to flash with another ROM.
4. Flashed several times with ODIN and tried to stabilize it with stock room XELLA.
5. Flashed with Ultima ROM, still freeze sometimes.
6. Phone stops boots, if I turn on normally, shows a screen like an old tv, white with stripes.... also shows it when I plug it to charge it.
7. Only enters to download mode.
8. Tried to flash it, however says partition failed, there is no pit partition.
9. Tried with every single PIT partition mx that i found, and nothing, every time it says, Re-Partition failed.
10. Tried with a different computer, USB cable, everything... and nothing!..
11. Also tried with the rescue korean rom, and nothing.
12. Also tried with the single file from samfirmeware and the pit file, and nothing!
Any thoughts??? I'm desperate!

And the roms I flashed, in this order: 1. CyanogenMod 10.1, Paranoid, CyanogenMod again, and Ultima ROM.
After the installation of Paranoid, the device started to freeze, over and over again, and continue to do it over the other ROMs.
Also, I went to a so called "technician", and the guy says the mainboard must be replace, because i damage the bootloader.

12. Also tried with the single file from samfirmeware and the pit file, and nothing!
Any thoughts??? I'm desperate!

Download a 3 file firmware from sammobile and also download mx.pit file.
Open odin.
Select pit and locate the mx.pit you have downloaded. Select repartion check box and flash it.
Then reset odin.
Click on pda and select the code file of your 3 file firmware.
Select modem and click on modem part of the 3 file firmware.
And then click on csc and select the csc file.
Make sure re partition is not selected and that the pit box is blank.
Then hit start and how it works.

Here's the link to a 3-file firmware:
https://hotfile.com/dl/156320160/eb4a939/I9300XXALE8_I9300OJVALE7_OJV.zip.html
Here's the one from SamMobile for the pit-files:

Zimbardo.ea originally posted this info on another thread. So credits to him/her for the links.
Use only the mx.pit in the pit rar.
If you manage to flash the pit but the 3 file firmware doesn't work, download speedmod kernel and flag the kernel only. Then go to cwm and then mounts and storage. Format system, data and cache. Then go back to download mode after a battery pull. And then flash the 3 file firmware again. Do not select a pit file and make sure re partition is unchecked.
This should work.
Hope it helps.

Thanks for the help man, however when I try to flash the pit file, I got this:
"Re-Partition operation failed."
So, as you can see I'm off on step 1.
Also on download mode shows:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME:
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom.
So, no product name as you can see. And old TV set screen when I try to normally power on, or conecting the charger, or trying to go to recovery.
Got another trick under the sleeve? I would appreciate it... Thanks! :good:

It didn't do anything, Odin didn't have the time to flash the pit file, and it was already broken long before I try to re-partition the pit file through Odin.
So, no, that's not the problem.

it is the problem. even if the phone was bricked, it was reversible. flashing the wrong pit file made the damage irreparable

Maybe the re-partition is the issue but I got no experience in that area.
Yep probably another one broke the PIT ..
requires a service centre or flashing firmware like .

Hey guys i searched alot and got the fix, i saw a pit file names 100% in it (not sure the name deleted it) and it helped could flash and now i got cm10.1 and im happy ?
Hi guys,
I need your help.I want to help a friend of mine to flash stock jb rom.
When tried to flash the first odin stucked at hidden and the second time at system after changing usb port and rebooting the computer.
I found somewhere that flashing pit file then the firm may work
Is that because he didn't do a factory reset before flashing?
He's got an s3 I9300 with orange rom 4.0.4.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Flashing a pit will usually hard brick the phone. If odin is correct version, phone is connected properly and you are flashing the right rom for your phone then the worst had already happened, nand failure.
You are missing a lot of information in your post, what does the screen say in download mode and how did you arrive at needing to flash back to stock?

Write out exactly what the phone screen says when in download mode.
Did you disable Kies before the flash, sounds to me like kies interrupted the flash
I can't contact him right now.Is it sure that the phone won't go back to download mode if the pit file was passed without firm ? If not is it possible to recover it with Jtag ?
@slaphead20 yes I killed it from the task manager

Doesn't sound good to me. I would have thought it was a send for repair job.
As you've already flashed a pit I think you have a hard brick, all I can suggest is try this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6
I will try that.Thanks all for trying to help.Appreciate it
