Evening All,
This is most definitely a cry for help from someone not new to Flashing Phones. I have been flash ROMS sicne the days of my HTC Desire. I have never encountered an issue up until recently.
My S3 was running perfectly fine on Android Revolution 16.5. I generally always charge my phone at work and at home so I always have it on. Last night my battery died as I left my charger at my girlfriends. After popping around and picking it back up I charged my phone. It booted up to give me a System UID's inconsistent error for no reason.
I did some searching around and attempted to rectify this matter with the various Factory Resets, Fix Permissions etc. and as far as I got was that I would get to the Samsung Logo and then it would hang.
After much dicking around with ARHD I decided to flash Stock Firmware from Sammfirmware.com. I did this using the Unbranded Firmware and going back to what my Galaxy S3 started with.
GT-I9300_BTU_I9300XXALF2_I9300OXAALF2_I9300XXLF2.tar.md5
This worked and I got safely back into my phone albeit with no signal/mobile network. I looked around and thought because my carrier is O2 I'll flash the O2 firmware. This didn't work so I went back to flashing the unbranded firmware again where I was on before I got this in ODIN:
<OSM> GT-I9300_BTU_I9300XXALF2_I9300OXAALF2_I9300XXLF2.tar.md5 is valid.

I now an issue because bootup is stating my firmware upgrade has failed, and now ODIN refuses to reflash the MD5 file again. I just keep getting the same failure message. I am able to reboot into Download Mode and that is it.
Is anyone able to offer me any kind of assistance please?

Hello guys, i am a bit embarrased that in my first post i am already asking for something
So.. here is the problem, i bought a S2 gt-i9100 from poland. I tried to root it, and well... it didnt went as expected...
I was careless and only managed to write the following stuf about the original firmware. It was version 2.3.5 and the last 3 letters of kernel were KI4.
So there i went following a how to from this site, and odin worked fine, used the file i thought it would be fine from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17704099&postcount=6 list of files.
Well it didnt work out, the phone would accept odin file and restart, but it stayed forever on the while triangle screen. So i turned it off and started trying different files, from that page. Then i realized it wouldn't work, i tried to bring it back to original status, but no luck.
After trying to use odin to write those original sanmsung firmwares, odin is stuck now, it gives no error, it just stays there for ever writing fimware, kernel or whatever i feed odin with....
So this is the status, i can access download mode, and thats it.
It would be great if you could give me any advice. Been the whole day working with this problem, and i am feeling kinda sad.
Thank you for your time.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Maybe try to turn off the computer and try again. Also make sure kies is not running and kill it in the system tray.
If no good then flash stock from the intratech thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1113928
You might need to find the one for your carrier.
You've got download mode so it can be fixed.

Stock Roms .and csc
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
Boot to recovery go to mounts and storage and FORMAT cache data system and sd card .
Power off phone is now blank .
Download mode and via Odin install the stock firmware .

I switched to another computer and everything went right.

Yes sorry - but pit error problem is related to faulty nand/emmc :crying:
re flashing dont make any difference at all
i sent my SGS3 to the Samsung Service Center. they tried to flash it but no luck so they asked me to leave the unit and replace the mainboard... waiting for it..
ive tried all pit, repartition, etc2.. i gave up
It seems I am not the only one....
Except take it to the health center (Samsung service center), does anyone have luck to fix it by Odin?! becuase I was using custom rom. I just think the Samsung might do the warranty recover with charges, which I don't really want to pay.. many thanks guys.

I said its hang on the samsung logo. when i was trying to factory reset. just act ordinary user that doesnt know how to root :laugh::laugh:
Information about my phone first off:
Phone Name: Samsung Galaxy S3
Carrier: T-Mobile
Locale: (US)
Model: SGH-T999
Update (01:38PM EST): ROMs from the list I was using were bad. Loaded a customer ROM and had no issue getting it resolved.
Update (08:54AM EST): I attempted an install and the error that came back when trying to install OTA_T999_UVALJ4_UVDLJA.zip. Said an MD5 file was missing.
Update (08:42AM EST): I'm downloading the OTA Update fro UVALJ4 - UVDLJA and will report back shortly once it finishes downloading.
Worth noting: I have backed up anything important to me from Titanium Back Up so I am not to worried about loss of data.
So I thought I'd finally jump up to Jelly Bean and keep my rooted status on my phone. I initially started out having an issue just downloading an OTA update from T-Mobile thinking my rooting was doing something to prevent it from updating. I searched and found a way to update via Kies, but lost root in the process. I attempted to use a root option which apparently wasn't the correct one and I found myself no longer booting into my phone. It displaying an error about needing to access Kies and trying to the recovery option. I ran its recovery option, but it was not seeing my device on the list so I pulled the software and drivers from my machine, rebooted and tried again to no avail, Kies was still not seeing my phone and any chance of recovering from this felt like it was going down the toilet. I still have access to the boot screen for downloading and my recovery program TWRP on it. I ran into issue attempting to install new firmware with Odin getting failed errors. I looked up said errors relating to ext4 and came up empty. I am certain I deleted something important but I am still in a position to load from my external SD card and Odin on my machine can make attempts to push firmware over, but I am at an impasse here because about most of the way in, it fails. I tried using the root firmware listed here. I downloaded T999_UVDLJA at the top of that list and only had Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time per instructions noted in that topic.

Re: [Q] Tried to update to Jelly Bean with my SGS3, made a mess...
Have you tried flashing a custom ROM based on stock? That way you might be able to re-install the drivers and other such important system files.

What drivers? I tried a OTA, but no luck. It complained there was no MD5 file and when I got one with an MD5 file, it says it couldn't open then the zip file.

How does a ROM vary in comparison to the firmware that Odin uses? I am assuming not, but TWRP seems to use ZIP files to do their installs instead of tar files like Odin. How am I supposed to be packaging these?

The custom ROMS found the development sections are either based on CM10/AOSP/AOKP or Samsung's Original touchwiz. Most of these ROMS have been modified to improve stability, performance and battery life. They also come prepackaged with SuperSU (root).
Example
Download this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804260
Copy it to your sd-card, pop it back into s3, go to TWRP>Mount> Use External SD. Go back to the main menu and Install the ROM. This one comes with an aroma installer so you can further customize what you want to install.

illmatic24, it appears that ROM I was using was just bad. Though that makes me wonder if I will ever be able to find the original if I ever decide to sell this phone. That ROM you linked me to is amazing, there are more options there than I know what to do with.

I'm glad it worked. Cheers and don't forget to thank the developer of the ROM.
I am having nearly the same problem with my Samsung SPH-l710. This thread seems to indicate the OP had a bad file download. I may have a new problem.
Today, I tried the process linked here:
http://honai-android.blogspot.com/2013/05/how-to-root-galaxy-s3-sprint-sph-l710.html
I had used a similar one about a year a go and it worked great.
This time, the process failed.
The phone will no longer boot (gets stuck on the logo screen). I can still hold "vol down + home + power".
I did a search and found this thread. I re-downloaded the file hoping my download was bad, same result.
So, then I got the latest stock rom from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737859
It fails also - here is the (last part) of the output window from Odin3:
------------------------------------------------------
<ID:0/003> system.img.ext4
<ID:0/003> __Xmit Write fail
<ID:0/003> XmitData Fail..
<ID:0/003> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
------------------------------------------------------
I think it said that same thing, or similar, the first time.
It fails here for any rom I try.
What am I doing wrong? Surely all these roms aren't bad?
Thanks for any help.
Also, I have tried several brand new micro USB cables, and different USB ports, as suggested here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1761870
I tried one more thing - I killed Kies as suggested here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082081
STILL it didn't work...
Then I moved to my windows 7 laptop - problem fixed!
I spent like 7 hours on this, and all I had to do was move to my laptop.
What a major pain...I found one more forum for a Samsung galaxy note (can't remember what version) who moved to a laptop and it worked. I will post the link if I can find that thread again.
Ok so by daughter let her boyfriend try to root her phone well this guy messed her phone all up he flashed a sprint image onto a verizon phone.
So it's not fully bricked yet I was able to use this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2024207 and put verizon image back onto the phone after about 58 times I used Root66 stock VRALJB 4.1.1 12/2/12 it boots but it seems the radio is still messed up it has a big circle with a line threw it where the signal bar would be and there is no info Min,PRL,network. if I try and flash I605_VRALJB_Restore.tar.md5
if fails at radio if i try and flash sch-i605-16gb.pit it fails. If I try and do this it fails do to the pit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2272066. and throws up a error about catch and dev catch. this is all new to me but with all the helpful post on xda it's gotten
me this far. so Is there any way to fix this phone or is it shot

There is a thread with all the vzw modems, but I can't find it right now . The third post in this thread has a section titled add ons and it has the most current vzw modem. Try flashing that in recovery and see if you get a signal
thanks that helped now to figure out how to fix the pit

In the first linked thread you posted, in section 1b use the Root66 and the pit file. That should work
And just a side note, only use files and info for the vzw sch-i605. Do not try anything from a different carrier's version of the note2. Nothing good will come of it
Ok this is what happens when i try and flash the pit sch-i605-16gb.pit from the above post

Are you using the Root66 and pit file at the same time in Odin? If you are just using the pit file, use both and see what happens
flashing another carriers modems is a big no no....tell your daughter to dump the dumbass!! lol

I was hoping you would see this thread and chime in. Is there any chance of hope for this guy?
yea this guy she is dating is a real job smh
like Boosted was asking any hope for me or is this a waste of my time I'm a big noob with all this I know how to read and that's what has got me this far and the help of Boosted. but no matter what i do the pit fails and it fails at radio in the flash and at this moment it says baseband version unkown and still shows no network even after flashing the modem and it says it took it

I guess the better question is since it is your daughter's phone, you did get insurance on it, right? If so, get a hammer and beat the hell out of it to take out your frustration about the boyfriend. Then call verizon and say you need a new phone because your daughter says she "dropped her phone." Pay the deductible and call it done
Well that's why I'm here or i would have took a sledge hammer to it but I got the phone from a friend. so if i cant fix it I'm sol

Quite a few years ago I got a phone from a friend and I called and they let me add insurance to it. I broke it like 3 months later and got a replacement. It can't hurt to call and find out
ancDis and
ok will try that Monday
Ok called them they will not do anything not there phone so they will not cover it at all so guess it's trash unless someone has anymore ideas

ok thanks for all the help
Yep, he really fubar'd it. He must have flashed both Sprint rom + Sprint radio. People often flash roms built for other carriers with no issues, but if you flash a Sprint radio on a VZW phone, your odds of bricking increase exponentially. I would make the boyfriend buy a new phone and be done with it.

I have searched everywhere (Not just XDA Forums) for a solution to my issue. Noe is to be found. Help me Android Geniuses, you are my only hope.
I Rooted my Verizon Note 2 LTE with Casual, and installed a sexy new ROM. I was loving it, till I realized I was no longer connected to the network. Not to worry! I had backed everything up using TWRP, so I restored the efs partition. Hmm, that didn't work.
Fast forward to me trying to flash my device back to stock, and it failing over and over (my flash count was at 18). Every time it failed in exactly the same spot: Modem.bin
Finally tried the "Root66" ROM, and it worked. However, my device is still rooted, no modem, no imei, and it still says minimum of 1 flash, and that I'm using custom ROM. Considering I have to warranty this phone, I need it back to stock for real. Can anyone help??

hey bro, have you unlocked the bootloader? if so and you're trying to go back to stock try the alternative stock odin file from imnuts.
EDITuno: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390225151984927096
theres the link to his alt restore odin package. idk if that'll help fix the modem.bin failure, but it should help someway. hope it does! if you need anymore help you can pm me if you need to.
I'm curious to what rom you flashed. Was it for a Verizon note 2? If you get no network, try flashing the modem in recovery. That should solve it
Link for modem download.

Follow droidstyle's guide. Read his thread.

EDIT: Just realized you are making multiple threads for the same question. Sorry dude, that's my only rule. No more help. Also noticed that you flashed an international rom. Good job :thumbup: This is why you are supposed to READ before flashing

Not needed
I apoligze if it looks like I posted this question multiple times. I was told to post in a different forum, but figured more info=better.
I returned my phone to Best Buy, replacement in a few days. So thank you for all the help, next time I'll be more careful.
