Im currently using Galaxy S3, which is not stock-romed.
Around for,, few months, i have been using OMEGA ROM, and suddenly, yesterday, the phone went into the infinite loop.
Since then, i ve tried so many solutions. These are what i have done:
1. Download Mode - Odin : didnt work, download mode was successful, but when on ODIN, since the first bar - it says fail. This is the log:
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
<ID:0/003> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/003> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/003> recovery.img
<ID:0/003> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/003> cache.img
<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<ID:0/003> Added!!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
If i try recon, it becomes :
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
like this for ... idk
2. I tried for recovery mode, i held whatever they said (volume up, power, and home) it seemed working , but it didnt even enter the UI of this freaking recovery mode. I experienced the damn infinite boot loop again. It turns on, turns black for a while, and it turns back to the logo, without entering the recovery mode. If i stop holding the buttons between this "Black" period, the phone gets turned off. I removed my SD card already.
3. So far, these are the only solutions that i could have found on this google.
Can anyone help me please...
PLEASE !

There could be a way. Probably through adb or you may need to search on XDA for a way. Unless its an external SD card.

No problem? Click it not say it!
Anyway. If you used the Odin that was provided for you it should have worked. If not there is a problem with your phone or something. Make sure all Kies processes are not running.

is keis running you have to stop all kies processes
I think it is cause by CWM file that you used with Odin, because now I have the same problem, success installing in odin, but when I tried to reboot into recovery, it just hang in samsung logo with one tiny red ! on the upper left screen. Hope I can have another .tar.md5 files for my S3 huh...

so, you are not able to enter recovery mode and also flash firmwares from download mode, have you checked what the Product Name says in download mode.. i think your SGS3 is suffering from SDS, time to send your phone back to Samsung for replacing the motherboard..

As the title says, today I tried updating my phone to the latest firmware. Samsumg Kies downloaded the new firmware, and the update was going. After it "finished", it said:
"SGH-T959 could not be upgraded
1. Detach and reattach the mobile phone's battery.
2. Reboot the mobile phone, and then try the upgrade again."
So I did all it asked, to go into Emergency Recovery, and my phone does not go into the mode. It's stuck on this black screen with an image like this (Phone .. ! .. PC).
Any help would be much appreciated.
Some other info: I've never done any fancy work on this phone, such as rooting, etc. The only time I touched its firmware was using the Samsumg Kies before to upgrade to 2.1 or 2.2, whatever is the latest one right now.
UPDATE!:
So after trying many times with Odin, and doing the download mode thing, I decided to run Samsung Kies again. In the Emergency Recovery it told me to press the UP and DOWN volume button, but never really explained how. It didnt specify that it was trying to put me into download mode.
So, I went into Samsung Kies, did the STEP by STEP of going into Download mode of this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=848737. The Emergency Recovery mode started working into Kies. I now have my phone back up and running.
NOTE: My screen setup was changed. I had only 3 tabs and now its back to 7, and the apps arent in place (BUT THEY ARE ALL HERE!).
Thank you laylovj for your time and all the help!
SOunds like a softbrick. You better hope that you have backups of everything cause you might have to ODIN back to stock firmware.
I don't mind losing everything, as long as I get it working. Mind pointing me out to a good guide?
Thank you.

I was about to post about that when you edited it. It does not go into download mode. I will try as soon as the JFD download is done. Thanks so far!
So I downloaded Odin and all the other files. Did the whole thing of going into download mode, even though it didnt change the screen, in Odin, it seemed to recognize my phone as a yellow box showed with 0:[COM4]. The only files that were able to be chosen were PIT and PHONE. When I clicked PDA, no file appeared, and neither did CSC and ETC. So I clicked START, and its now stuck on SetupConnection. It's been there for about 5 minutes now, is this normal?
Also, before upgrading to Froyo, try out some custom roms if you're feeling brave.
And if this ever happens again, pull out battery first, then remove the USB to avoid it again.
Can I fix it first then do a ROM after? I did want to do it before, because my phone was freezing at random times doing basic stuff, but I was afraid it would brick my phone. But right now it can't get any worse lol
I just want it to work, if it works, i'll try a different ROM.
Update: I did the Odin again, and now I got "<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0).
Wont go any further then that.
Wait so you didn't choose a PDA? Did you extract the JFD zip file? You weren't supposed to.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere I needed to extract, but guess I was wrong. So this time I re did everything, and was able to select the PDA file. I clicked start, and this is what I got:

Try redownloading the files...I really don't know what else to say.

I have my S III for two and a half months. And today it started to boot loop. The phone was working and I leave it on the table. After few minutes I noticed that the phone is in boot loop.
This is my second android phone. Before the S III I had Desire. I have experience in rooting with the Desire (use it without root only 2 months and own it for 2 years). Also while flashing it many times I had boot loops on it -> re-flash always worked.
The S3's situation - it is in boot loop, when I try to start the stock recovery (volup+home+pwr and not releasing the) the phone starts to boot loop as long as I keep the buttons pushed. When I release them the phone stays in booting screen (Samsung logo) - same as I just try to start it. When I put it in download mode (voldown+home+pwr) it works and asks me if I want to continue.
Is there anybody with experience whit the same problem? And should I try to flash the stock rom from SGS3 ToolKit or to use the warranty and let the shop to fix it (probably will hold my phone for a month)?

One boot to recovery Vol Up + Home + Power release immediately on splash screen .
No recovery then choice is return to service .
Or flash a stock rom via Odin from the stock rom threads .
jje
release the power vol up and power buttons as soon as you see android while entering recovery. Once you do that try factory reset.
Note: You will lose all your data on internal SD (pics, images etc)
If you want to save data first flash CWM then enter recovery and factory reset. You will be able to save pics, images, music etc by doing so (apps will still be removed)

Step 2: Open Odin 3.04
Step 3: Put your phone in Download mode
Step 4: Connect to PC
Step 5: Select the firmware (unzip it to get the .tar file if it is a .zip file) as pda..dont touch anything else
Step 6: Click Start and wait till the rom is flashed and your device reboots
Step 7: If the phone is stuck at boot screen after the flash, press vol up+menu+power untill you see a green droid..release immediately
Step 8: Clear Data+cache..you will loose everything on your internal sdcard
Step 9: Reboot
Now if you face any problem in any of the steps mentioned above..tell us which step and what is the error you get...
flashing stock will not void your warranty but the stock rom should be specific to your region..with correct CSC..

Guys thanks for your help. After few unsuccessful attempts to flash with odin, I returned the phone to customer service, and now I'll wait them to fix it. Now I'm with my old Desire until they fix my SGS 3.

Hi shiShark,
Any luck when you returned to customer service? I seem to have exactly the same problem.
Out of interest, did your phone show as system Custom in the recovery screen? - Similar to you, I have not rooted or flashed my phone but it says sytem:Custom on the recovery screen and customer service refuse to fix it under warranty.
Thanks.

Hi guys,
My friend gave me her S3 to fix because there was a problem with it. She said that she was on YouTube when it froze, she took the battery out and when it turned back on, a message came up saying "Encryption Failed. Unable to complete encryption due to interruption. Perform factory data reset (erasing all your data) before use....." There's a button that says "Reset Device" but when I press it, it doesn't do anything. She has NOT rooted her device or tampered with it at all, nor has she tried to encrypt her data, so this is quite unusual. I tried to put it into Recovery Mode so I could perform a factory reset by holding power, Vol Up and Home. As I hold these buttons, a message pops up at the bottom of the screen saying "Device storage is full. Delete some items", although my friend says that she had recently factory reset her phone and there isn't much stuff on her phone. The phone then restarts as it should. It shows the android with the spinning shape thing in his stomach. Then it stops and the phone restarts again back to the "Encryption Failed" screen. I have tried many times to get into Recovery Mode but it wont work. I researched online and found that others say that they also cannot access stock recovery but can access TWRP and CWM. I can get into Download Mode, so it thought that maybe I could try to install one of the two recovery modes. I first tried to root the device using Odin3, however, it keeps failing.
This is what it says:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> recovery.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..
<OSM> Leave CS..
<ID:0/012> Odin v.3 engine (ID:12)..
<ID:0/012> File analysis..
<ID:0/012> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/012> Initialzation..
<ID:0/012> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/012> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/012> recovery.img
<ID:0/012> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/012> RQT_CLOSE !!
<ID:0/012> RES OK !!
<ID:0/012> Removed!!
<ID:0/012> Remain Port .... 0
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0)
At this point phone reboots and when I go to recovery - there is no CWM
I will be grateful for any suggestions.
Thanks
I would suggest you try this http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/meliusltexx/philz_touch_6.25.0-meliusltexx.tar.md5 assuming you have the GT-I9205 of course.

I will try that, thanks for suggestion :good:
So I tried the above but have same thing happening.
Everything looks as if it's working OK. Odin picks up the phone, I load the image in PDA.
Have Auto Reboot and F.Reset Time enabled (only).
I hit the start button and it's VERY fast - literally few seconds and I get blue RESET! in the top box in Odin.
What's interesting is that after another two minutes Odin will change to PASS!
But that's looong after my phone booted back to normal operation mode, it will also change to PASS even if I have disconnected my phone
Any suggestions anyone?
==== UPDATE ===
What I also noticed is that after I boot to recovery I'm getting ERROR and NO COMMAND - they will flash on the screen and instead of usual Android Robot I have one on it's side with red exclamation mark over it.
No Command and this point is displayed below the "robot".
This is really irritating
One thing when you are flashing a custom recovery on the mega is once you are done flashing with odin you MUST reboot the phone directly into the recovery mode again for like CWM to appear otherwise if you do not do this the stock recovery will be back, this only has to be done once when you first flash a custom recovery..then it will be okay after that.
And with odin that does the same thing for me it says RESET but it still works and after it will say PASS when the phone is disconnected already, not sure why odin does this but seems to have no effect on the flashing part...hope this helps you out.

That was is!
Thanks for pointing in the right direction.
I've all the same options in Odin but when it auto-rebooted my phone I have quickly pressed the the buttons for going to recovery and that worked. When powering off from recovery I was given an option to disable stock recovery and now it's all as intended.
THANKS!

I got same problem when i flashed cwm by phil with odin, what i did is to uncheck autoreboot in odin so after odin finish flash recovery image you need to turn off manually by long pressing power button, and then just boot into recovery, reboot system now and select yes disable stock recovery when prompted by cwm.
