Hi, my s3 is dead, I need not appear in system status CUSTOM, but I lose the warranty. As an officer I can change it? not allow me to install a stock rom because it gives me the error that there is no pit partition. I can get into download mode. I searched the forum but have not found it. Try putting a stock recovery as solutions, but can not find it to flash it with odin. Greetings and thanks.

will not let me flash the file. Pit. Regards
then you're done, it needs a motherboard replacement.
Hello.
I tried to flash stock XEO ROM to my S3, but while the whole process it stuck on loading system.img. Then when i tried to turn on the phone it shows me the yellow triangle and info that i can recover the system with Kies. But it also didn't work. I tried to flash other stock roms but it always is stuck in booting system.img
FIX:
I downloaded different roms and different ver. of android
Tried to flash several times with pit file and without but it was still stuck at system.img
I tried different ports and the result was the same
I changed the cable and reinstalled drivers and I succeed to flash 4.0.4 ver without pit file with odin 3.07
Have you tried flashing stock rom via ODIN?
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about I tried several times and it still doesn't work :crying:

Did you try install stock firmware with PIT file?
If you have 16 GB version of GT-I9300, you can try this PIT file (I tested on my device).
Odin 3.07 with PIT file;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2762337&d=1401023420
Download a stock ROM from sammobile, then put it to PDA. Before start flashing, press PIT button on Odin and select the PIT file, then press Start.
I decided to send my phone to service, when will it come back still bricked I will try it
Ok, I will get my phone back UNFIXED because they told me at the service that i have to pay for changing the firmware because my phone comes from other country.. I disagreed and told them to send my phone back.
I had an idea how to fix my phone and also some questions about that.
First, is there any way to full wipe my phone without recovery, I mean that i can;t access recovery on my bricked phone and i think that causes the problem with flashing any rom with odin (that the brokem rom i still installed and odin can' flash the new one over it). When I'll wipe the phone completely i suppose it might solve the problem. But does wiping the phone makes the phone unrecognizable for PC?
The second idea is kinda connected with the first one. I thought about flashing cf root with odin into my phone and as far as i know, it has its own recovery so i can easily wipe the phone with it and then flash the stock rom.
I know that my reply looks kinda messy but I hope you know what i mean.

Bump, need an answer to this.
up
Ok my phone is finally alive :cyclops: Here's the solution i figured out:
I downloaded different roms and different ver. of android
Tried to flash several times with pit file and without but it was still stuck at system.img
I tried different ports and the result was the same
I changed the cable and reinstalled drivers and I succeed to flash 4.0.4 ver without pit file with odin 3.07
I will add it to the first post for those who have the same problem, cheers :good:
A while ago my phone started to restart itself for no good reason. Then it got worse and it starts randomly resetting itself (factory reset). To solve this issue I tried to do a manual factory reset myself, and the problem persisted.
I can deal with these random restarts, but then one day as it restarts it got stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S3" screen. I tried to do another factory reset in CWM and clear the cache, but it says "E:\cache\...." isn't mounted. As I investigate further it seems the reason that it can't boot might be because the memory is not mounted I guess?
I can boot into Download mode and CWM perfectly fine, so I decided to try to flash the Stock Recovery and Stock ROM through Odin. Connection between Odin and the phone was set up fine, but then it stopped at this error message "Complete(Write) operation failed." Flashing either stock rom and recovery yields the same error . It simply can't write to the memory it seems.
Now I'm stuck at this start screen. I've heard flashing a PIT file might be able to fix it, but I have no idea what that is.
Is the phone bricked? How do I fix this? Should I use the Rescue Firmware in this post? It would be great if anyone can help me since I have been asking for help on other forums but got absolutely no response...
GT-i9300
If you can boot to download mode you can try to use the rescue firmware. No, it isn't bricked because it still works
Thanks for the response! I'm going to try the rescue firmware, but I see that it says "KOR" on the file name. Is that referring to "Korea"? My phone isn't bought in Korea does that matter? Also what's the CSC thing it's talking about?
Your description matches emmc corruption/failure, so it is a software brick.
Follow the guide for the rescue firmware it doesn't matter about the country or CSC, but make sure you include the pit file.
If that fails to flash then it's time for a new phone.

I just downloaded the zip file, but it seems like it doesn't have a pit file inside. So where can I get that file? Thanks again.

There are two versions in the rescue firmware page 4.1.2 and 4.3 the pit file is in the 4.1.2 version and can be used on both.
Now I tried to flash them with Odin 3.07, it doesn't fail nor success. Instead it got stuck at "Get PIT for mapping.." I read that this might be a driver problem, but I've reinstalled my drivers, and I even tried all the usb ports on my computer. I've terminated Kies' process, but it's still not working!
What should I do to get Odin to write onto the device???

It won't write for a reason, the emmc chip is damaged.

Follow the steps I've mentioned in this forum yesterday.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/fix-samsung-s2-booting-root-reset-t3087729
This should fix the issue, and then you can restore back and update your phone or flash custom ROMs.

i'm trying to download from rapidgator from 2 days but i can't, it always breaks!
and it can't be resumed
http://samsung-updates.com/details/23417/Galaxy_S_2/GT-I9100/VOD/I9100XWMS2.html
I have a stucked i9100 too.
If i choose a pit file, and select Re-partition, Odin stucked in SetPartition.
if i not checked, the re-partition, Odin stucked in data.img (3 files) or sbl.bin (1 file)
the same problem
always stuck in: NAND write start!!
help please
note:
when i falsh a recovery (like:CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.tar) it flashed well, but i can't access the recovery!
phone ssn: i9100GSMH
is it necessary to flash any pit file?
pit file should not be necessary, its main purpose is to re-partitionate the device. If you are already happy with your setup you don't need to flash it to update firmware.
Remember to choose the firmware for the right region for you, the link you posted is for VOD Region (United Kingdom Vodafone).
i think the problem is in the region, i've tried many regions but no one worked.
how to know my phone original firmware region?
Edit: phone flashed sccuessfully.
the problem was that the version printed in the phone is I9100, and the real phone's firmware is I9108.
Hi I have one samsung Galaxy S3 which is stuck on Boot Screen. I tried to flash it but odin shows fail. I tried pit file same. Is there any way to fix it. I have Z3X also with me
@arjun_anil, in the worst case your internal memory is gone. So before threwing away, try firmware again: download your firmware, drivers, Odin from sammobile.com and follow exactly instructions, given there. If Odin finishs with failed again, post the log.
I tried to flash efs file and this is what I got
This is what I got from odin flashing efs file
Boot screen huh? Sounds like is missing/corrupted is files. Have you tried recovery an factory wipe? Also if you can connect to Odin, then you could reflash. But first your gunna need to know a few things about this brick here. Like the android version, carrier, an kernel version. So you can download an flash the proper files. I'm guessing your on a Verizon phone and or you didn't install Samsung drivers to help Odin's successful flashing chances. If you don't know your phones info, you can find out in recovery an Odin modes on the phone if accessible.
