Yes it's a great chance that the phone is still working but don't know how to root it cause odin stuck at get pit for mapping
Is the phone working after the failed flash, or not?
you can also flash cwm recovery(only) from odin separately and then superuser.zip from that recovery.

My phone still working it turns on all good god bless and hope my phone will not brick cause I know what it is. I have bricked my galaxy note several times and the last time was really bad cause I have done with factory reset and it hard bricked. The Galaxy s3 is an amazing phone love it so much I really want to gain best out of it too. I'm running on jelly bean XELLA 4.1.2 for a while now I want 4.2.2 jelly bean, but before I have to root this jelly bean 4.1.2 XELLA
no, you don't have to root to install 4.2.2

Custom ROM

Hello guys, i found the Android Revolution HD rom pretty awesome,it fits my style(stock, fast etc) but i don`t know how to flash it, i have Galaxy s3 i9300 International version Unbranded never locked on any carrier, firmware 4.1.2 i9300XXEMC2 stock kernel, my phone isn`t even rooted...i had a galaxy s1 and s2 before but im not so experienced with rooting the galaxy s3, in that ROM section how to install it tells me i need Custom Recovery, and now my questions are :
1. how i flash galaxy s3 i9300 ? i found chainfire method but i read that it doesn`t support custom recovery ... so what`s the method?
2. wich version i must flash ? what are the differences ? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797334 the 25.0 or 35.5 version?
HEEEELP ! PLEASE
If you read both chainfires thread and the revolution thread properly then all is completely clear.....don't skim it....read them both PROPERLY ....if you can't be bothered to do this then the chances are you will brick your phone
I just read the revolution thread and found the answer within 1 minute
I know Chainfire thread is 100% clear
This site is not for this

if i want to install philz touch recovery i must be rooted first or i can install it straight ahead?
You can use Odin to flash it directly.

you can flash via odin i think. otherwise, use cf method then flash philz in recovery
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
My routine is this (I use cf root)(old recovery included)
Flash cf root
Update to Phil's with either Odin or mobile Odin or through recovery

Go into Settings->About Phone and make a screenshot or type exactly what is written there.Include everything.
Why people try to install temporary CWM (the majority don't even realise it's going to be temporary) & don't simply flash a custom kernel which takes 5 minutes & works every time is beyond me.
this...
hope you can help me
Philz kernel. Look it up,read about it, understand what you're about to do and when you do flash away.

You used terminal emulator ??
Then as it says you require a service centre repair
<<Failing that, flash stock and send for repair.
Tried Terminal Emulator and Root Explorer a lot of times.
Gonna delete efs folder then do full wipe and flash ICS Stock Rom again.
I solve my problem using codes via PC and Terminal Emulator.
Thank you very much for your helps

[Q] why doesn't the phone reboot after flashing

HI,
I have flashed my phone with STi Kernel.
after flashing the phone won't reboot.
I can run it in download mode but not in recovery mode.
is there a way i can fix it?
my karnel build is JZO54K.I9100JHLS4
I have used heimdall to flash the device.
Thanks
Wait...you have a i9100 or at&t i777?
If it's i9100,you flashed wrong kernel.Reflash a stock rom or philz kernel via odin.
