Hi guys,
I wanted to ask for help because I can't root my galaxy s3. I always got stuck into this message in my Odin:
<ID:0/006> Added!!
<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..
<ID:0/006> File analysis..
<ID:0/006> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/006> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/006> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/006> recovery.img
Also I'm also having issue in installing the android 4.1. I always got stuck to system.img line.
Can you point what seems to be my problem? Thanks.

Yes you must let it complete. I am have provided you with 2 download link.
CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar - https://www.dropbox.com/s/5h01ljc3cuowltk/CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar
Odin3-v1.85.zip - https://www.dropbox.com/s/ds8hs3285bjnfhm/Odin3-v1.85.zip
Step 1 - Extract then open Odin3-v1.85
Step 2 - Click on PDA and select CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4.tar
Step 3 - Connect your device while in Download mode
Step 4 - Wait until you see 'Added' and then click on start
This process normally only take a matter of seconds. This is the exact method I use and it has never failed me.
Hope this helps

Ok, but is it normal for me to wait 2 hours? I've seen youtube videos but it seems they don't took that long.

Hey XDA Members!
I have a problem with my Device.. If i wanna flash any kind of firmware, (flash via odin) i get this textbox :

The blue bar is full after 1 second ..this cannot be, it takes much longer if you flash an original firmware.. i read that there can be something defect at the s3? what can this be? i cannot flash any firmware because the blue bar is filled after 1 second and then nothing more is happening..
Please help me !

i don't really know what it can be

I'm not sure if you're kidding, so I am answering you assuming you're not.
The thread was about going back to bone stock to use kies to upgrade but not getting the modem to flash properly. He was able to do that, then was able to get the ics update.
Bottom line -- he returned to stock.
Don't bash me if I misunderstood you. If you do I will burn your house down (just kidding).

Lol I see, an no you right... I misunderstood the whole modem ordeal and thought that he said that he only needed the gb modem to flash through kies to get the update and that seemed strange to i questioned it. Seeing that he returned to bone stock means that was not the case, thanks bro

I still have CWM Recovery. how can I get the Stock recovery back?
Thanks.
Use Kies to install UCLF6 ICS. It will wipe the CWM kermel. The old 3e recovery will be the default.

When you say "flash the stock modem", how is this done? i've looked all over and my mind is numb. Sorry, I'm new. I know how to do the reboot using the up/down + pwr to get into recovery. Is flashing done by executing the zip file on an sd card or on the phone? This is where I am unclear and I dont want to screw up my phone. Thanks for all help.
Is there an Odin .tar version of this by any chance?

Download the zip file.
Use 7zip and unzip the file.
Start Odin.
Put phone in download mode.
Connect to pc. Verify com.
Put modem.bin from zip in odin phone slot and flash.
Just checking

So when you say flash ... you mean just click start without selecting any other option in the odin?

no, you ticked "repartition", which is against the instructions, thus killing your phone. apparently

I always flash using pit files, does it fail, then I will just revive it using my riff box. You can not kill it beyond repair with just a pit file, and certainly not I9300

Not all can own that device and understand how it works. So for users like us flashing with re-partition ticked is pretty much killing the device. And why do even need to tick the re-partition everytime you flash? lol

I would say you could send me your phone and I could do the unbrick method for you. But I would feel terrible if I messed it up. It does work though. but i also have jewlers tools and all that jazz. Get it jtagged and be done.
I say it's fixable stop giving him a heart attack...

Like the one you asked about before lol
Dude the guy that made the unbricker made it cause he did the same thing... it's not fixable without jtag or unbrick

Lacoursiere18 knows his stuff well. He suggested what I thought would fix it.
Previously last week Corean0213 had similar problem and got it fixed. My apologies I didn't see/overlooked he flashed GT-N7100 firmware on a SCH-1605 this week. Thinking he still didn't do the 4.3 OTA stock firmware I thought he could re flash with Odin. But guess he made a bigger boo boo then expected with wrong device firmware. uch:

Thanks.. I think the problem might be if that bootloader he flashed is locked down.. If it is then I don't think odin can write over it..
I wouldn't say jtag would not work. Best thing to do is call Josh over at mobile tech videos and he'll let you know..He is reasonable and a nice guy, he won't steer you wrong..

Jtag will work. They would have to do the downgrade method where they remove the emmc Chip and flash it. Then proceed as normal

First, I tried to root and that failed. I then tried to install via odin twrp and that failed. then I went to philz via odin and that failed. Now when I boot to revocery I have the following screen - pls see pic. I am on stock 4.3.
Thx
Edit: I went ahead and wiped cache and data and am starting anew. Does this mean I can try to install a custom recovery again? It still shows the same screen as below.
Make sure if your on 4.3 that your using a recovery for 4.3 and all the newer ones are for 4.4.2 ....

I tried chainfire's root n900p. Thats when it all started to go wrong. It wouldnt boot into cf's "special recovery" to root the phone. So, I thought I would just try a custom recovery and install a rooted rom from there.
Thats when I tried twrp 2.7.0.1 for 4.3, it did not install.
Then I tried philz touch 6.08.7: it did not install.

I let it reboot all the way. Then turn off completely. I then hold vol+, home, power to get to recovery. It says in blue, "recovery booting". It tries to boot, but it just ends up in a loop and I let it boot to the phone.

I tried again and did not let it boot all the way to the phone. I immediately tried to go into recovery. The TEAMWIN splash screen comes on, then it just loops.

Its been suggested to try the one click restore. I downloaded it, extracted using 7zip and clicked on it. The odin is blank? Is it supposed to be? I downloaded twice to be sure.
what is the difference between mj4 (which I am on) and nc5? Can I just choose either?

Tried two different older twrp's with Odin 1.86 and I have tried with Odin 3.07, still get android recovery with the android on his back and red exclamation triangle. AND it took about 3 times of the vibration for it to boot into the recovery.

Yes, thankfully.
I'm thinking of trying the mj4 one click restore. Perhaps that will fix what got messed up and I can start over....

Yes. baseband and build as well.
Relash mj4 stock tar on top of what you have. You don't have to wipe anything. Then root your phone then try twrp again.
