The thing is you flashed a version not meant for your GT I9300. You flashed the Verizon bootchain. Verizon GSIII is Samsung SCH-i535.
Different hardware than a i9300 (Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8260A Dual core CPU, and the i9300 has a Samsung Exynos 4412 Quadcore). Sorry bro. If you still have download mode, you can try flash a i9300 bootloader. If not. you're dead.

[Q] *Urgent* Galaxy S3 9300 , bricked (no fix found)

*Urgent* Bricked S3(gt9300)? Accidentally wiped my s3 (in allianz rom bootloader screen) .* It then vomplrtely wouldn't work, so I used odin to put a stock rom on (via pda)* Success ! working completely fine until it lost power & will only ever get as far as the samsung logo when turned on. Need urgent diy help to get my phone working again,* I have tried a number of how-to's on fixung a bricked s3 via odin with no luck!* the error message is along the lines of no partion available & will fail no longer than 2 seconds into process. no matter what rom ; custom or stock Im unable to fix.* My guess would be that ive deleted whatever software in phone that would recognise a rom. Notes: I am competant in use of android just very good at making mistakes.* The only feature available is the download usb mode. Any help would be appreciated especially if it works, Im sure someone else has had the same problem!

Sorry for quoting the op
Flash stock rom
Then go to stock recovery
Wipe data
Reboot..
Let me know if this works
Solved now
Hi all
thanks for all,
I got the solution , i Flash bootloader with odin.
Now my phone is stared but not getting able to register in Mobile network , seems my IMIE number is lost ,
I have old nandroid backup i am going to restore to store my IMIE
Thanks All for your help
Hate to break it to you, but restoring a nandroid isn't that likely to bring your IMEI back. If you're very lucky, flashing a stock rom for your country/carrier (if you're already running one, flash others) might bring it back if it's a case of temporary IMEI loss. If not, many mobile repair shops (not Samsung service centres) should be able to write the IMEI back to the device relatively cheaply. And if not, a Samsung authorised repairer can do it (or they may replace the motherboard which has already been suggested to you), but that can obviously be somewhat expensive.
Or if lucky op might find a efs backup somewhere in internal memory

[Q] GT-I9300 wont boot, ROM wiped

i have a samsung galaxy s3 (gt-i9300) it was running a custom ROM when i got it but i wanted it back to the original samsung software, so i wiped the phone through recovery mode from the rom as the volume buttons are broke on my phone, after wiping it my phone will now only come up with the boot screen saying 'Samsung galaxy Slll GT-I9300' with a red exclamtion mark at the top left corner, is there anyway i can fix this my self as i need my phone working
You did more than just a factory reset, if you used format then you may have bricked it.
Try flashing the stock firmware for your country from sammobile.com, using Odin. Follow the guide in general forum sticky thread.
This happened to me too. Flashing the stock firmware solved it.
Better be careful with those format next time :laugh:
Well,
If your volume buttons are broken there is only one way to go to recovery to flash stock.
Buy an USB jtag from ebay.

Galaxy note 2 lost IMEI after instaling recovery

Hello,
my galaxy note 2 (was running stock rom, latest SW) suddenly got bricked after battery reached 0%. When turned on was stuck on SAMSUNG logo then after some time being stuck on the logo the android guy poped up with some quick recovery menu (nothing helped - clearing cache, restoring factory settings).
Kies and reloading SW didnt help. I managed to bring it to life by installing recovery called TWRP using ODIN.
Unfortunately the IMEI is now 0049..... which is some generic one. Resulting unability to use the network.
How to fix this IMEI issue and get my original one back ?
Any idea or do I have to take it to service center where they have the service box ?
If I need to provide more data please ask.
