Soft brick my i9300 and need some HELP! PLEASE - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear Friends
I HAVE MESS-UP WITH MY i9300!!!!
The incident is I was using custom rom, and installed some stupid app called "Adblock" or something,
and then, my phone just keep went-off for about 8-10 times a day. So then, I decided to reflash
custom rom by CWM, and after I pressed install in Aroma Installer, it just kick me out all of sudden, and
then, I couldn't get back to CWM anymore, so I decided to flash some stock rom by odin, but what
had happen was it starts until "Nand write start" and stacked for a while, and then just FAIL me.
On the net, I found that Checkrom Resurrection V4 could rescue softbrick i9300, I tried, but
no luck either. Finally, just now, I tried a 3 files stock rom with pit, and it came out as:

What I have done:
1. reflash custom rom by CWM
2. 3 wipes - (but I am no longer to get back to CWM)
3. flash stock rom - hong kong combo firmware @ Samfirmware - by Odin
4. flash Checkrom Resurrection V4 by Odin
5. flash stock rom - 3 files firmware + pit - by Odin
6. changed usb port
7. changed PC
8. uninstall all applications relative to Kies
have you guys got any idea what can I do? I am thinking to mess-up the phone even badly (till it couldn't switch on), so that I can take it to Samsung Service Center for warranty replacement, but have you got ANY method I can do that to mess it up? Or anything I can over-come from the soft (or hard) brick. PLEASE Give me some help guys. I am very struggle.

I did the same, and tried to fix in the same way ~4 weeks ago. Its back in the post from samsung and should arrive today having been repaired.... Sorry!
They have had to replace parts (took them two attempts with different bits apparently), but dont give any more details than that.

Incorrect PIT may brick your phone .
This needs a service centre repair .

The custom binary download counter from 「2x」to (No), is that mean it back to zero? Do you guys think I can give it a go to samsung warranty center?

Flash via "Firmware Upgrade And Initialization" in the "Tools" of Samsung KIES 2.5 instead of ODIN. The firmware must fit your phone because it get firmwares according to your serial number. However, if you find firmwares outside, there may be a little difference due to different batches.

---

But my phone just couldn't boot up, it held on the screen of "samsung" logo, so I couldn't connect to kies at all

You don't have to boot up your phone in order to use the "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" in the Samsung KIES.

Thanks for your advice mate, I tried, but still no luck, what happen was my PC can pickup the connection of my phone, but once Kies sending data into the phone, it just became fails and has to be disconnect. I tried to reconnect and ran through it again.. no good. Now, I am planning to give a soft electric shocks, and make it go into dead sleep, so that I can take it to service center. Before that, any other think I can try?
Thanks mate.

That means you failed to use the download mode which supports the "Firmware Upgrade and Initialization" right?
But electric shocks is not a good way as they may discover you.

---

Yes, I think so, I can connect the phone to Kies, after Lies finished download firmware and ready to flash, it kicked me out and asked me to disconnect the phone.
Except using electric shocks, I can't think of any other ways as I think I have tried everything. Any other method I can try?
