I think you could flash another firmware. Or make sure kies isn't running in the background. Even using another USB cable

Hi Adheesh ur the king...did as you said and both my mobile are revived now...thanks a lot
Man you are one brave guy; flashing drivers meant for 9300 on 9082 (I assume you dont mean the USB drivers) ! Thank your lucky stars you only had a soft brick. Hard brick would have made your device go kaput! Anyway, all's well that ends well

Samsung Galaxy S3 Firmware Update has Failed

Hi, I'm trying to update my s3 from 4.1.2 to 4.3..I was able to download the update ok but when I install it, it only goes to 25% then briefly shows a wee Android guy on his back with a red triangle. Then the phone reboots and I get a message saying that the firmware update has failed.. I've got stock firmware and have never tampered with it using custom firmware or any of that rubbish.. Can anyone help please

Which firmware are you trying to install and how are you trying to install it.
Like I said in my post, I'm on 4.1.2 and am trying to install 4.3..It's an over the air update.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app
A guess you are rooted so OTA as per the faqs and guides has failed .
Use Kies or flash a rom via Odin .
A guess as the OP is lacking information .
But whatever you are posting in the wrong forum if you have an I9305 .
No i am not rooted. As i stated in my op, I am on stock firmware and have never tampered with it... And I do mean NEVER as in not rooted or any other of the goobldegook things that gets spoke in here... Now can anyone tell me how to sort this bug out?

The question about the firmware was not the version I could read that it was what country or carrier specific type UK, (BTU), O2, Vodafone or whatever.
You really need to calm down otherwise you wont get help people will ignore you and the mods will be the one that close your threads and ban you, are you this aggressive towards people you work with.
The less detail you give the less we can get help, so we ask the questions to try and find out exactly what you are wanting to do, just updating 4.1.2 to 4.3 isn't enough on an international forum.
Sorry was seriously stressed at the time. And i took some of these replies to be seriously condescending.
I'm in the uk and using an unbranded s3..I've factory reset the thing and it still has the same error. I also booted it holding the up, home and off button. Then cleared thr cache. Still thr problem remains.

Hi
This has just happened to me today as well. My phone kept getting the you need to wait your turn message and then it finally downloaded today but upon install it got to 27 percent and rebooted back up.
It how says it is the latest version.
I'm also in the UK on Three however my phone is rooted but I did run triangle away to reset the counter and disable supersu first.
It is running stock firmware - JZO54K.I9300XXEMG4
I guess ill install using Kies later. I hope it can install with losing anything? Ill read up later - just driven back from Scotland back to Midlands so a little tired atm

Hi Yellow Yogult
You can get OTA when rooted you just need to ensure your counter is reset and also the status is set back as normal using triangleaway as it describes.
I believe the other guy said earlier that it was his wifes s3 but he has an s4 (or was it the other way round?).
I'm just going to follow the advise to use Kies instead though after a little reading up.

Just as an update....
Following the advise given previously, I have used Kies instead of the OTA and the update has worked perfectly with no issues.

Well. If u are rooted, u can nvr be Official in device status as the phone checks if u are rooted every time u restart. So even if u use triangle away, when u reboot. U are still rooted. So the device status will STILL be MODIFIED. I did it

Not quite true. triangle away has the ability for this reason to reboot and fix the status from modified into normal.
I've just looked up a guide to basically how I did it.

Yeah, as I said previously it worked fine. Downloaded the 4.3 update through OTA however upon install stopped at 27 percent and just rebooted back.
I guess it would just be more sensible just use Kies anyway as it was very easy.
Ill sort out that thanks

Thanks mate, but unfortunately I've got slow internet (50kb/s) and my browser is telling me there is 1 day+ left to download the 1.1GB file. My internet sometimes disconnects so it will be near impossible for me to download this file!
Does anyone know of any other websites you can download from? Perhaps a torrent file...

I've been searching for a few days how to fix this problem but nothing helps, so I came to ask here.
I've tried flashing emergency firmware , also with .pit files ; tried repairing it with KIES too. Nothing.
It's S3 Blue 16gb version.
It's impossible to get into recovery , but I managed to get in it with CWM(after trying at least 100 times) , and these are the errors I got.
i.imgur.com/duLiUsD.jpg

It shows Samsung galaxy S III logo and stays there or reboots all the time.
I can get into download mode and flash whatever I want with odin, but whatever I flash, same issue.
Looking forward to your advices/help. Anything would be appriciated.

I had that issue before. Try to update your version of CWM or just change and use philz TWRP. Then wipe/format data, system, cache and dalvik then try again to flash the rom of your choice :fingers-crossed:

I need to try like 100x times to just get into CWM and then when i try to wipe I get those errors I posted in photos.
Philz / TWRP doesn't even want to boot into them.
When I boot into recovery there is android standing and some sort of progress bar and it starts to fill and the phone restarts to galaxy logo again..
Bump //
I tried flashing stock ICS but no luck.
I flashed stock ICS with "T flash" and " NAND erase " turned on and I just got android Downloading mode.
Then, I went to Kies and did firmware repair and I got past Galaxy screen and phone started turning on and installing apps
and rebooted again with the same issues.
