Good day gentlemen,
It seems that my S3 would not start/boot up as it only shows the Samsung Galaxy SIII logo and keeps restarting itself. I rooted it before and it worked but the issue was that when I tried to flash a ROM it apparently failed and then the above happened. Any helps would be highly appreciated. Also I'd like to note that I am able to access Download Mode.

You need to enter recovery mode and wipe all data and caches, then reboot and see what happens...
enter recovery mode (hold home + volume up + power)
choose wipe data / factory reset

my problem is there is problem with my rom and hence i am getting the same problem mentioned earlier in this thread. i used everything including samsung galaxy s 3 root toolbox kit 7.0
but then also my pc is not showing me phone status.
my phone is just having only downloading mode. no other thing except the "boot screen" available in my phone.
my question is... how do i overcome to this problem? i wanna re-install the stock rom which i already have. and i know how to install the stock rom. ALL I WANNA KNOW IS WHAT TO DO TO GET VISIBLE STATUS IN ODIN SOFTWARE. AS I THINK THERE MUST BE SOME PROBLEM IN DRIVER.(I TRIED SAMSUNG PHONE DRIVERS, SAMSUNG KIES AND SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 ROOT TOOLBOX KIT 7.0)
PLEASE GIVE ME PROPER DRIVER SO THAT I CAN MANAGE
THANKS

In that case you need a service centre if reading the FAQS and Guides re Odin and drivers has failed . Probable damaged USB port .

Thanks man.. you know for this reason i format my pc too. But then also it wont work.. now as per you . Service center is last option.
but as per your saying.. my phone's usb driver got damaged. Right? But what it means? I used only the same data cable which i got with my phone.
is it possible that i will get this data cable issue resolved after visiting service center?
And how much possibilities to get my phone back in working condition if i will get it to service station?(asking cause i read that my phone got bricked)

Man i wrote it wrongly... I only get two things 1 is download mode and another if i try to go for recovery my phone only stuck at samsung logo(so called boot screen )
please provide ur valuable solution
1. uninstall kies
2. install the usb drivers
3. use a different usb port/cable/pc
Google search for samsung drivers 1.4.6, I had a similar problem and the latest drivers dont recognise my device but 1.4.6 does. I would link it for you but I am on my phone.

Look , i had the bootloop once. I tried to power down my device, but it wouldn't work. Took out the battery and it powered on itself - bootloop. Try holding Volume Up + Home + Power buttons to get into recovery mode and then clear data/cache. I remember holding the buttons for 10 seconds before it actually rebooted to recovery
But if you read the heading of this thread gr4ndm4st3r_bl4ck, it says the home button is broke....

I'm not sure his button is really broke , cuz he didn't mention it anywhere in his post , just in the heading... Which makes no sense, who does any kind of flashing if their hardware button is broke... If it really is , then it's his fault for not taking it to repair first...
Hi,
So I'm on the Samsung Galaxy S II I9100, I'm not sure of what has been done before on the phone, but here is the situation.
Boot => yellow triangle & no os boot.
I'm a newbe, but I tried to follow guides to fix my problem, without success.
Check the attached screenshot of Odin.
All tasks seems to be completed but nothing is done, and the phone does not move from the downloading mode screen.
Hope someone will be able to help me or link me a solution !
Thanks !
EDIT: OOps, pls move me to the Q&A....

then flash again and it should work

Well, after rebooting !everything!, it seems that now it works...
Thats probably sorcery !
Maybe not, thanks !
1. Download a full stock Rom for Odin.
2. Boot the phone into download mode (volume down + power + home).
3. Fire up Odin and place the Rom files as instructed.
4. Connect phone to PC.
5. After Odin shows it recognizes the phone, press start.

Hey,
I have a Samsung galaxy s3 GT-i9300 that wont boot up (it only shows the samsung logo).
Ive rebooted, removed the battery but no success. The only thing that works is download mode. It is still stock (not rooted).

If you flash a official release from sammobile it should not increase your binary count, thus leaving your warranty intact. It is when you root or flash a custom Rom your binary will increase.
Worst case you need to use triangleaway if counter increases
Sent from my Jelly Omega SIII using XDA App
If anyone's interested, I had to return the phone under warranty where they replaced the main PBA.
The combination to get to recovery is this (for future reference)
Vol-up + home + power button. Once galaxy s 3 logo pops up quickly let go of the power button and hold in again then let all three go once in recovery.

You guy´s soft bricked your phones thats why u dont get any where re-flashing, but heres something worth trying without risking anything!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JUST GET YOUR SAMMY STOCK ROM FIRST FROM THEIR SITE
Use this Odin version >android.gs/download-odin-1-85/.
Above the country code and you can know the three-letter code which applies to your country. Now look for the date of release and select an appropriate update release for your phone.
Step-4 Rebooting
Reboot by holding Home, Volume Down and Power buttons. Remember you need to hold the Volume Down button and not the Volume Up button as in the first step. You will get into the download mode. So, you phone is now ready to get the firmware via USB.
The phone will flash a warning about the dangers involved. You should not worry as you are putting the firmware back on the phone.
On the computer, now unzip the Samsung firmware folder you downloaded from the official website. Now extract the .md5 file.
Now open Odin, select.md5 file in the 'PDA' section of Odin.
Make sure that Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time is ticked.
Connect your Galaxy S3 to your computer via the USB lead. Odin will automatically detect the phone and a pop-up message will show. Now start the process of transferring the file.
Step-5
Wait for the file to download. Odin will show 'PASS!' in the box once the transfer is successful. And the phone will then, reboot.
If it hangs on the Samsung logo, don't worry reboot into the recovery mode by holding down Home, Volume Up and Power buttons. Wipe the data/factory reset and reboot.
This will in all chances bring your phone to a functioning mode. Sign in and start working.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The extent of you phone being bricked may vary, but the symptoms are often the same -- a reboot loop, switching itself off after the Samsung logo or never getting into the operating system. As long as you can get into the recovery mode, there is hope to recover the Samsung Galaxy S3,
no success
Hi guys,
your solutions are great but in my case it didnt help at all.
My phone still stucks at logo. Only download mode is possible, but odin wanted a pit file always when i tried to download the sammy firmware rom. After all i even downloaded the pit file GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit. But even with the pitfile and Re-Partitioning it didnt function at all.
My SGS3 T-Mobile can not start at all.
PLEASE HELP ME, i am helpless.

Install Kies and across the top, find the tools bar and it will bring a dropdown menu, just select emergency firmware recovery or something like that. Alternatively you can boot into download mode and flash the firmware via odin. If you don't know what that is, stick with the kies method

Dude had the same issue on my galaxy S2 and resolved it. You dont need the backup. I downloaded the
The .pit file for my gt-i9100g (http://data.hu/get/4697903/omap4_all_20110627_emmc.pit)
The stock ROM from sammobile. (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=13292)
The JB Bootloader. (I downloaded the stock by Ryuinferno)
The stock JB kernel.
Opened odin v1.85.
Then i used the vol down+home+lock keys together to try to open the download mode ( but ended up in the "Firmware error " page) and connected phone to the pc. It shows "Added!" in the message box.
Repartition with the .pit and it will reboot.
Disconnect
Get into download mode and install the bootloader and it should reboot when done. Disconnect.
Get into download mode and connect
Installed the kernel through odin and reboot
Download mode again and install the ROM through odin.
If the phone gets stuck in boot loop (samsung logo over and over),
get into recovery mode ( for s2, vol up+home+lock, it needs to be pressed intermittently)
Then do a full format along with wipe cache.
And then the phone finally booted completely. :laugh: . Good Luck.
Note: I'm not sure to boot into recovery and download are the same key combos as it was for the i9100g.
tried but i died

After the ZIP was installed I rebooted my phone but now it doesn't get any further than the Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i logo. I tried to boot in recovery and download mode but both of them doesn't work. I hope some of you can help me. I bricked my phone before but then I could get into download mode but now I don't.

Try the following guide to see if you can force open Download Mode through odin mode. Here is the link,
How to unbrick Samsung Galaxy Ace
This guide was meant for Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830 and hence the Download Mode key combination is different. So make sure the change the Download Mode key combination to your own device. If you can force open the Download Mode this way, then you can try installing the stock rom. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

As you can't enter the Recovery Mode and Download Mode, you have pretty much hard-bricked your phone. Since the above method didn't work, then you can try the USB Jig (not always guaranteed to work). If USB Jig did work, then it will force open the Download Mode so you can flash stock rom back using odin. If USB Jig doesn't work either, then your last option is to consult the Service Center. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

Thanks a lot! I can get my phone in download-mode now by pressing volume up and down plus the lock key. Normally it's lock key plus home button plus the volume down key but that didn't work but this did!! I can't say how much I should thank you! You saved my life.
THANKS

As you can't enter the Recovery Mode and Download Mode, you have pretty much hard-bricked your phone. Since the above method didn't work, then you can try the USB Jig (not always guaranteed to work). If USB Jig did work, then it will force open the Download Mode so you can flash stock rom back using odin. If USB Jig doesn't work either, then your last option is to consult the Service Center. Do post the result. Hope I Helped

Thanks for your help but I already got in download mode by pressing the volume up and down key and the power key. So I didn't have to go buy an Jig or go to the service center but also thanks a lot!!
