The phone has installed custom recovery but it has no recovery image so i need to flash it using Odin but the problem is that it doesnt want to continue flashing. I can get to the download screen no problem on top it says : Odin MODE Product name Gt-i9300 Custom Binary Download Yes (1 counts) Current Binary Custom and System Status Custom . I've tried a few samsung roms but with no luck every time i get the fail message after system.img in Odin. I hope there is a fix , as far as i know if the phone can get to download mode it can be fixed so i hope you guys can provide me with a noob proof way of fixing it .
Thank You in advance
(further about the phone it has installed : clockworkmod recovery 6.0.2.7 , the phone is bought from Ireland )
can any one help or is the phone totally gone :?

i'm going to try and see what happens.
as far as the motherboard thing goes , how much does it cost to buy it and get it replaced
I tried the above method but Kies wont connect to my phone it stays on connecting. The only way to get it even there was when i put the phone in to Download Mode
motherhood is about $300

so if it ends up being the worst case scenario im better off buying a new phone.
As far as i've read around the forum if i can get into recovery and download mode apparently the phone can be fixed . I'm just hoping that someone can give me some pointers on where to go from here and how to flash the stock rom when odin fails
No Odin and no recovery ???

hey guys, had the gs2 a few months now and decided to root it tonight.
plan back fired. stuck with the samsung logo and the ! symbol.
original info:
GT-I9100
2.3.3
I9100NEKF2
2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF4-CL280512

CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KF4-v4.0-CWM4
is what i tried to flash this with (odin).
Went through all the steps. flashed, blue bar came across. said success in ODIN. Phone rebooted but wont get past the ! screen.
have tried flashing with I9100XWKF4_Kernel and tried reflashing with CF-Root-SGS2_ZS_OZS_KF4-v4.0-CWM4, Both result in same issue (phone stuck on boot screen with ! symbol).
Any ideas on where ive gone wrong? or possibly a way to resolve this?
Thanks again

can you enter download or recovery mode? (volume up + home + power // volume down + home + power)
If you can go in recovery, wipe data/cache factory reset + wipe cache + advanced and wipe dalvik cache.
Mount usb storage and put in your internal memory a rom (like batista or villain rom or checkrom your choice, i use batista) flash that one and reboot.
If you can only go in download mode, try to flash the lite'ning 6.1 (KH3) rom, be sure to DONT check repartition (that will brick your phone).
The lite'ning already contains root (no need to use cf-root before) so if you can enter download mode, it's a good choice to "unlock" (hopefully it works) your phone.
i can get into download mode still but cant get into recovery (never could?)
downloading that rom now. big download :S
Well, the rooting process didnt worked well if you cant even enter recovery (that comes with the rooted kernel).
Keep me informed if you can fix the problem.
I forgot to tell you, you can also flash from download (maybe you prefer) a stock original rom (from this forum, S2 Android Original Development) so you get back to the stock rom (without root).
im downloading both the custom liteneing rom and the stock firmware. Ill let you know how it goes.

That's not looking bright.
Im sure it can be fixed since you can enter dw mode and Odin finds / connect at the phone.
Try with the stock one, if also that one isnt working, you need a more experienced advice from a "veteran" of the forum
Stock not flashing either, both failed :S
really hope i havnt destroyed this phone. nexus one was a breeze to root.
phone gets into download mode no issues and ODIN picks it up.

If (never could?) means also on stock firmware then this was the first mistake.You need to try and flash your original FW (or another from XDA if your phone is unlocked) to get recovery.Without it you wont root or install ROMs.
http://www.multiupload.com/N5RWCXT1LJ
i imagine youve already got it but stick it in pda and try it.It might take a few trys but give it few goes.I had an i9000 jtaged that came back without recovery mode and it took me a few failed attempts before it finally passed and rebooted with recovery and then your away laughing.
and if it continues to fail? jig and return to samsung? or will this be covered under my 3 contract..
If your download count (download mode) is set to 0, it is covered by your warranty.. if it's more than 0, you need a jig to set it to 0.
Kinda strange problem you got here, phone is not bricked (since odin find it and you can access dw mode) but looks like it refuse any kind of firmware.
Anyone else a suggestion? im sure big names of the forum can help out a bit here...

Heres the problem with the return idea.If the symbol on the screen is the classic "PHONE...!...PC" icon then its a semi-bricked icon and if your bin counter is at 0 then samsung are your better choice but 3 might not be abligated to take it back as this sign clearly means a PC-Phone connection problem and not a software problem alone.If the icon on your screen is a big yellow triangle with the ! inside then samsung can refuse to take the phone back even if your bin counter is at 0 cos this is a special warning sign put but samsung to see if you have been screwing with your phone outside of your warranty.If its the big yellow one then keep trying to flash and if nothing works then pay 30 or 40 bucks to get a jtag done.Because you can get into download mode I see no reason at the moment why it wont flash Use the firmware from XDA dont forget.IT worked for me with their PDA flashes and not the samfirmware files with pit files.Dont use pit files and try a more reciente FW if your phone is unlocked as i said ealier.If you want try the samfirmware file that gives you the 3 files instead of one(without pit but use odin 1.85 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
PDA/PHONE/CSC and see what happens.give everything a try.
try this if you want.Its XWKE1 multi CSC H3GKD4 from May.Thought it might help cos its an H3G brand firmware like on your phone.If it works then yourll get back recovery and then can flash what ever you want again.Worth a try.BUT use Odin from XDA (1.85) and no pit file and dont tick re-partition.PDA/PHONE/CSC

You can't flash a custom rom with odin.
You need CMW.
That's why failed.

Wrong, Lite'ning package is a ODIN package, not a clockworkmod package, i did flash the rom 3-4 times in the last 2 months with odin.
keep trying to flash, but its failing. may be a gonner :S i always read that its not bricked if you can get to download mode. guess this is wrong?
im getting no phone to PC error. so is all ok?
Download mode shows current binary as custom
6 counts of flashing the device.

Download mode does not mean its bricked or not bricked it just means on a bricked phone you stand a chance of recovery but that depends upon a number of factors the principle one in all this flashing is the user .
It may that multiple flashings have messed up or that the wrong firmware has been flashed .
My steps would be .
One reset rom counter with USB jig to clear for warranty.
Two Recovery mode Mounts and storage Format data cache system dalvik and sd card .
Power off boot to download mode and flash a full stock rom via Odin .
Do not use any firmware you have already used .
jje
recovery mode isnt available so cant mount.
anyone else care to input?

Why not try to re-install the drivers?
I got problem flashing the rom, but rectified it after re-installing the drivers.
May help u.
Hi all. I thing my phone is struggeling to survive.
First I'll give you some background info:
Phone is SGS3 I9300.
[ROM] Has been running Omega Rom since one of the first versions. Been running v32 since it was released (not v32.1)
[Kernel] Been running Omega's tweaked stock kernel most the time, but installed SiyahKernel 1.7rc3 some days ago.
About a week ago I recieved a 64gb SanDisk MicroSDXC card and installed Mittiadj's ExtSD2InternalSd script.
[recovery] CWM V6.0.1.2
So, what happened?
Well, when I installed the extsd2internal it wouldn't apply on boot, so per his guide, I installed Script Manager and got it working.
Some days ago I wiped system, flashed omega 32, flashed siyah kernel and flashed the extsd2internal for custom kernels.
Now the script worked without script manager.
After I installed Siyah, the phone reboted twice, about a day or 2 apart. The 3rd time it rebooted automatically, it did not manage to boot again (stopped at the Siyah boot logo,the purple eye).
From here, I switched the phone off, and using vol-up+home+power, I am SOMETIMES able to get into recovery. However, in recovery, I am able to flash cache but not dalvik, I tried flashing Omega, but it froze during the install wizard, I tried wiping system (for another attempt at Omega) but it rebbots then also.
Now the phone only gets to the White Samsung logo or to recovery (but recovery only shows version and the text)
E: can't mount /cache/recovery/command
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If I hold vol-down+home+power, I get to a question if I want to install Custom ROM, vol down for cancel, up for yes. Pressed down.
Warning!! A custom OS can cause critical....
If you want to download a custom OS, press the volume up key, otherwise, press volume down
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Where can I go from here?
What has gone wrong?
I am suspecting the memory chip is fubar, but hope someone can tell me otherwise
For the record, I have tried booting with and without sim and microsd, no change comes from that.
In the mean time I guess it's time to resurrect the god'ol Nexus One

This reads as totally bolocksd firmware and recovery .
Remove SD card and format it in windows as FAT 32 .
Boot to download mode and flash stock rom via Odin as alternative is a non warranty repair .

Tried flashing CWM via ODIN, but get an error after Writing stage. (i shoulden't have done that, because before the flash counter was 0, and it showed stock, after it shows as modified

Confused flashed CWM >> do you mean root ???
Stock rom has a kernel and would at least be on the right road for a warranty repair .

Phone is allready rooted, as i had Omega Rom installed.

not looking so good - I think I would have another go at flashing stock - my AV/ firewall sometime stop odin trying disabling them - I suspect it wont help but hopefully it will
Hey Guys,
I'm sure all of you get lots of these questions, however I have been trying for a couple of days to get this S3 going so I can just asking for help.
My main issue is I cannot flash any ROM's via Odin.
Here is some background infomation:
I started with a stock Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 International 16GB model.
Flashed the correct version of Cyanogen Mod for my Model/Sub Model.
I install this rom by flashing CWM (Clock Work Recovery Mod) and installing the update.zip from my external SD card.
I have done this before with other Samsung devices, No big deal, just factory rest and wipe the davik cache and flash the new ROM.
Well I decided to backup the original ROM via CWM's backup option. The backup completed fine but I backed it up to the phones internal storage instead of my External SD card. The new ROM worked fine till it ran out of space. So I selected the Delete option back in CWM to remove the backup file, rebooted the phone only to find I was still using 8 or so GB of storage.
So my phone was not happy. No room to download updates or save new pictures, etc.
This week I decided to flash the stock ROM back over the phone. For some reason the firmware was incorrect for that model or something was wrong with the phone.
After looking around I decided to flash a .pit file for the Galaxy S3, One problem, I did not know that different storage sizes of S3's have different .PIT files. However it flash and I still could not restore my phones ROM.
So after a few days of looking around I downloaded the stock ROM from Sam-Mobile.com for my phone and country and download GT-I9300_mx_20120220 PIT for for what I read and understood was for a 16GB GT-I9300.
So the new PIT file flashes fine, however I still cannot flash any new ROMS. I have tired the stock rom from Sam-Mobile or trying to flash Recovery-cwmtouch-6.0.3.2-GTI9300.tar (clock work recovery mod).
None of these flash. Odin3.04 just sits on "NAND Write Start!!" and there is a blue "downloading" bar that is across the screen and that's it.
Nothing else happens. I have also attached a screen shot of this.
I have a water damaged 16GB GT-i9300T that I have used to create a .PIT file from Heimdall, But that sits there for about 10 Min before Odin says "Unable to get pit map"
I have also tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916796
I get all the way to shorting out the resistor (R313) on the PCB but the phone does not turn on and fails to display "SD Card Mode"
So, can anyone help me?
I know it might be a long shot but at this point I'm willing to try anything. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
Cheers
Mitchell
Flashing just a pit file usually results in a hard brick.
You can try a rescue firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6&nocache=1&z=2665989794768393
But you probably need a new motherboard.
Thanks for that!, The recovery firmware failed to flash but the pit file flashed allowing me to install Cyanogen Mod.
Thanks for your help on this one :good:

For getting error when flash in Odin no matter what kind of error. Just need to flash out and repartition it for pit file and you get back yours phone back. The problem is the pit file must be suit to flash your phone. If not no matter how you flash it still the same.

The sboot.bin file is not flashing because the rom is either not for the phone or the phone bootloader is too new.
Are you a using the original USB cable?

The problem started when i plugged my phone on charge, when i unplugged it the phone turned off and continued to restart after samsung logo screen. I then tried kies to upgrade and initiliase but when that reached 4% it would say an error occured. This happens constantly. I then closed kies and tried flashing a Stock rom with ODIN but it keeps saying FAIL in red.
Also afrer kies recovery it now says firmware upgrade encountered an error.

First of all, Please try and make sure you can enter recovery mode. From what I understand, your phone is soft bricked. Also you mentioned the model. To download the appropriate firmware you need the country.
IF you can enter recovery mode, things are okay. We can then try rooting your phone with and flashing a custom rom. If that works, stock rom can be flashed back later. But first of all please try entering recovering mode by pressing Volume Up, Home and Power Button. When you see the samsung boot logo, let go and if you get some options that means you are in recovery.

Recovery mode and rooting are irrelevant to your issue. Try flashing the rescue firmware from the general forum, if that fails then you'll probably need a new motherboard.

I have the i9300 but when I boot up into download mode it says PRODUCT NAME: SGH-T999 (not my model, though). I think this is because I accidently installed the SGH-T999 version of cyangomenod.
So to try to fix it, I used odin 3.07 and the
"I9300ZSEMC1"
stock rom file to try to put it back onto stock. Odin "stopped working" and crashed and I soft-bricked my phone (Firmware upgrade encountered an issue message at boot).
I tried again using I9300XXEMC3 stock rom, but odin 3.04 says

I tried following those instructions. I managed to flash the .PIT file. Now I don't see the error message at boot, my screen is just black. BUT I can "sorta" boot into recovery mode (starting recovery message shows for one second, then black screen again). So I'm still stuck.
I can STILL boot into download mode though. And if I try to use CF-Root Odin fails again (same error) and my phone says "unsupported_devtype".
Flash stock rom via Odin .
But flashing a wrong firmware for a different phone may well be a lot more than a soft brick
Did you also flash wrong recovery ???

Everytime I flash the stock rom odin fails and phone says "unsupported dev_type". In Download mode it says my phone model is T999, but it's actual GT-I9300.
And I don't think I did. I think I had clockwork mod recovery, I'm not too sure though.
You have flashed at least the T999 bootloader, which is why it says that in download mode. If flashing a full i9300 stock rom doesn't help then you'll need a new motherboard.

That really depresses me. Are you sure this is the only solution? Because I remember when my phone WAS working I booted into download mode once and it said the same "T999 Model" and I could still use it. This only happened after I tried flashing the stock i9300 stock rom.
I think it's the cyanogenmod installer that flashed this T999 bootloader for me. When I used the cyanogenmod installer it detected my phone as a AT&T phone and I was dumb enough to click "install" thinking it would work for all galaxy S3's.
I think this guide is exactly what I need (since it restores bootloader), but I can't seem to complete all the steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535367
I get to #5 but once I try to install CF-ROOT through odin it says the same unsupported dev type error on my phone.

I think it was already rooted though, maybe someone could help me reinstall the recovery (cwm) so I can install the bootloader from that guide I just linked?
Best option is to try a rescue firmware, which might help:

Will this delete my EFS? I remember I backed up efs with this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852255

By restoring to "complete" factory settings, won't this efs be deleted? Can I still backup my efs in my 'soft brick' mode I'm in?

Did you try Kies yet?
Do you still have a custom recovery?
I'm not sure about that adb nvbackup you have done. As far as i know it's only for Qualcomm chipsets not Exynos. Maybe you have severely damaged the device. But try Kies first or if you still have root access with recovery try to flash the bootloader manually.
If everything fails contact the low level guys like @AdamOutler or @Entropy512. They might be your last hope.

I tried Kies on two different computers, but whenever I connect my S3 it just says "connecting" forever and never connects to my phone. Tried solutions online, couldn't get it to work.
And I have root access, but can't boot into recovery (says "recovery booting" for a few seconds then goes black screen). So I don't know if I can flash the bootloader manually, unless I did it with odin.
And those seem like busy developers, would they really have time for me? I don't even know what I would ask. :S
Sorry I seem so clueless, I'm just upset/sad/confused/everything right now. Saved up for this phone for a while.
Try to flash the bootloader only. There are different ones. Maybe you need one that is not blacklisted if that's even possible.
Last option that comes to my mind is an external jtag flasher. Maybe you have a local service shop or similar in your area that could help with that.

Hmm when I had a functional phone it said I had the ZSEMC1 stock rom, so the "bootLoader_ZSEMC1.tar.md5" flashed from odin should work? I got it off this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189063
But I don't know if I'm still on ZSEMC1 since I flashed XXEMC3 with odin (but I think it failed) and I got soft bricked.
What could go wrong? Could I hard brick it by installing that bootloader?
I have no clue but i think all I9300 bootloaders would be ok. Your problem probably is rather to find one that gets accepted. Try the latest one for I9300. There is a thread with different bootloaders somewhere here i guess.
Also try to flash a custom recovery like twrp or cwm. I'm not sure if official tools like odin have a separate bootloader check that prevents cross model flashing. No one really knows how you did that. Maybe it's necessary to be done with dd.

I tried the ZSEMC1 and XXEMC3 and XXEMG5 bootloaders from this thread and they didn't work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189063
(shows unsupported dev type)
How do I get the 'latest' boot loader? That thread is the only one I could really find.
And also I did try installing cwm through odin. It didn't "fail" but it doesn't work when I try to boot into recovery. I'm guessing this has to do with my locked bootloader?
Really don't know what to do at this point. :/
New motherboard if you have tried the fixes .
Check if 'adb shell' is working in recovery nevertheless. Maybe it's just a display issue in cwm. Also try twrp.
If all that fails go to a mobile shop near you asking for a jtag flash. It shouldn't be too expensive or something. Hardest part is probably to find one locally...

I tried cwm and twrp. They both install successfully on odin but have the same "recovery starting...." message and they don't work. I've tried connecting the USB when it's in this "recovery" mode but my computer doesn't detect it so I can't start up adb and interface with it.
And also, I doubt I'm going to be able to find any in northwest ohio.I wonder if this service is any good?
