It is possible that your phone suffered a by now well known Sudden Death Syndrome. If you used a Firmware before, that didn`t included the SDS fix then it could happen. Syndromes are like you described: Phone freezing all the time, not responding etc.
More infos here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2091045
So you can go into download mode right?
If yes then download a official Samsung firmware and then try to flash it through Odin. Now the most important thing for you is to get your phone to a Stock state, so that it hopefully boots up.
Yes i can go into download mode. i download the original firmware from sammobile but still i dont understand witch pit file i must use.

Hi there!
I might need some help. After it froze 3 times because of instagram, i pulled libsurfaceflinger.so from system/lib because that caused problems to instagram. (it was used for crt off btw)
So after that, i restarted the phone, but it won't go past the S2 screen, not even boot animation. However booting to download mode or recovery works. I can't wipe because of the LQ5. I tried to reflash the bootloader, but can't seem to help.
Any idea? i don't really wan't to do a reflash with 3 a files firmware, that's just the worst case scenario...
thx

Flash a stock rom in Odin. Single file packages available here or with the PC version of Checkfus - search for it on here/Google; this will enable you to download the latest firmware for your phone model/country/carrier (there are also unbranded firmwares) that you'd normally get via OTA update.
I don't see how you have any other choice.

LQ5 has the brickbug... so I don't know if it's safe to flash a single file firmware over it... because if you wipe LQ5, it might brick the phone...
flashed single file LPO over it, and it seems to have solved the problem, the phone booted up
I am a newbie from Nepal. I dont have much knowledge of flashing. A week ago i tried to flash CMW recover while i was in resurrection remix JB rom. Till then i am not able to start my phone because it freezes at "Samsung Galaxy S2" logo... Now i dont know the CSC, PDA and kernel version of my mobile. So please help me solve my problem, how can i make it work?
Boot into recovery (Turn phone off. Then hold home/power/volume up) & do a wipe/factory reset. Or if you have a recent backup (or any backup) restore that from recovery. I've done this a couple of times over the past few mths when my phone has spontaneously bootlooped.
didnt help

I can boot into CWM recovery but the wipe/factory reset and cache deletion too would not help.. I dont have any backup and i am not able to access my external sd card too... so please can you help me now...
Boot into download mode (Phone off. Home, power, volume down) & flash a stock rom in Odin; go to Samfirmware or AndroidFirmwares.net & get a stock rom (or get the PC version of Checkfus). Flashing instructions here

Sorry i cant access my external sd card in CWM recovery and i dont know how to access internal memory of my phone since it can only boot into recovery and download mode...
In that case flash any stock rom you like. I gather you'll be going back to a custom rom pretty quickly in any case (?) so it doesn't matter. Whatever you do tho, do not flash a PIT.

All I can do is download a rom which is in zip format, but i know odin does not support .zip but it supports .tar, so how can i download rom in .tar, also does it matter if I flashed the rom which is not meant for my region?(I mean I dont know my phone's PDA and I am not able to decide which firmware to download since every firmware has its own specific PDA)... Yes, I'll be going back again to custom rom after I make it work...haha
AFAIK a rom for another country wont break your phone, but be careful with 4.0.4 roms because of the brickbug

go to http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3 and choose the stock or even another stock rom you wish, download it.
Boot into download mode and flash the single .tar file through odin, flashing instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
PD: if the downloaded file is .zip and not .tar, just extract the zip and u'll get the .tar

Amm, now i have a android 4.0.4 firmware in odin supported format.. and i am about to flash using odin.. but i got confused what did you mean by "but be careful with 4.0.4 roms because of the brickbug".. Please explain me... And thankx in advance..
He means don't do a wipe/factory reset from recovery while you're running that kernel. Once you switch to a custom kernel you can relax tho.

Parameter is incorrect error can be caused by either of two reasons
1 . something is wrong with the file you downloaded try re downloading
2.Kies is interfering with Odin, terminate Kies from the background by using the task manager.
Using GT - I9100
Just hit the damn help button if I helped you.
A lot of Thankx..
I wanna thank all of the members of the forum who have helped me in fixing my mobile. I finally fixed it by flashing the stock rom android 4.0.3, and it is doing perfect but laggs sometimes....:good:
Glad you got it sorted

Hey guys!
I think i could use some help on handling my GT I9300
I was on Paranoid Android 3.15 and flashed miuiandroid_m0_jb-3.4.12
It worked for me for about 40 hours- no problems at all.
While i was setting up my phone and reinstalling my apps clockworkmod told me that there is an update. I could update to a version that i already installed a couple of days ago but somehow the app showed me i am running on an older version. After trying to update clockworkmod it told me that an error occured while updating.
Didnt take care of it because i went to bed and wanted to continue later this evening.
Some hours ago (i already used my phone as usual) my phone restartet and stuck on the samsung logo.
When i plug in the charger no led turns on. Sometimes the Samsung logo changes to the charging animation but it seems that the animation is frozen.
I cannot enter recovery mode only download mode.
What i have tried till now was:
trying to flash a stock rom with odin 3.7- Odin told me something like there was no pit file found.
trying to flash an odin flashable cutom rom- some error as above.
trying to flash a 3 parted rom with pit file- odin was stuck on "Get PIT for mapping" and nothing happened for about 60 minutes.
I have uses both GT-I9300_mx_20120220.pit and GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit

On Odin 1.85 the repartition fails
Now i am pretty clueless and i hope that someone could tell me a solution
Oh i almost forgot.

You could try flashing CF-root with odin and see if that works. If it does you should have access to recovery.

Oh i sorry. forgot to write down that i already tried this aswell-but without .pit file. That was one of my first ideas because i wanted to avoid repartitioning.
Same error in odin- no pit found.
Should i try to just flash cf root with the .pit file? or would this cause even more damage?

Is it possible to flash only recovery image with Odin? I've been doing that with Mobile Odin, so I guess it might be possible with Odin as well?

This was the custom rom i mentioned above. Have forgotten the name so i only wrote via odin flashable custom rom. Same issue there "there is no PIT Partition"
The "best" result untill now was trying to flash a 3 parted rom with PIT but odin seems to freeze on getting pit. Or at least nothing happened after an hour
Usual is wrong PIT for your phone or PIT partition damaged .
Take it to a service centre .

I went to my provider today and gave it back to send it to service. I don't seem to be the first one who gave the phone back with the same issues. Usually it takes about one or two weeks till they have checked the phone and decide if the repair or replace the phone. Today the nice lady in the shop told me that they will send it back on monday and a replacement will arrive on monday aswell.
Thanks anyways
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.

Hello everybody,
I am using my I9300 with TWRP and SlimKat.
I noticed a few days ago I was'nt able to reboot into recovery (the teamwin logo appears, and then reboot with the samsung logo and boot normally).
I was not worried to much as my phone booted normally.
And this morning, down to 4% battery, I place it on charge, and he reboots suddenly, and since then I am stuck into a bootloop (stuck at the Slimkat logo for a while and then reboot).
Same thing for the recovery mode, I cannot access it.
I have still access to download mode so I guess i can save my phone that way.
Any help about how to proceed and what to flash (via odin ?)
Thanks for your help !
You will need the stock rom for your device (single package) and just flash via odin in download mode. Clear cache and reboot afterwards to remove any signs of the other rom.
Let me know if you need a link to the 4.3 BTU firmware.

How do I flash it with Odin ? Do I check re-partition ?
Thanks,
Flash with odin, do NOT select repartition.
Tick one package, enter the firmware under "pda" button and flash.
There is detailed instructions on the samsung site or google.
