[Q] Trying to fix by Galaxy SIII Please help - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am trying to fix my i9300 UK.
I Had it running just fine with Ultima ROM and TWRP with Googy kernel.
Then one day it suddenly would not boot. Just got stuck on the samsung boot logo. I could not even boot to recovery.
So I asked and got a very short answer that I should flash the stock rom. So I downloaded the stock rom for my phone from sammobile and tried to flash it with ODIN.
However, I just get a FAILED sign when I try. What can I do?

Mmm! Couple of things you could try.. Try adb boot into recovery also try and flash PhilZ recovery with Odin look here and choose .tarmd5 version >> http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9300 << also what does it say on your screen when you are in download mode.

This the the file I am trying:
I9300XXEMD2
Should be ok. I am on three.
I have looked in the task manager and can't see any reference to Kies on there. I guess I could uninstall just in case.
What is very worrying now is that I just tried to flash again using ODIN 3.04 and it said I needed a .pit file to repartition. Re-partition is not checked so I don't know why it is asking for this.

what do you mean by adb boot into recovery?
I will try to flash that custom recovery now.
While in download mode it says:

CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
UPDATE: Trying to flash that PhilZ recovery says I have not included a PIT file again. This is bad isnt it?

Well I was going to suggest that but most of the posts I have seen from people who try to do that ended up with hard bricked phones I have never tried that and to be honest would never like to try doing it...But it's your phone!! if you try search option top of page their are some threads somewhere with instructions and pit files to download. Good Luck

Well thanks for the help.
I think I will take it in to get it fixed. I had the screen die on me not so long ago and had to take it in for a replacement screen then, so this is a little frustrating.
Oh well

Have you tried flashing with separate files and pit file ? This should rewrite your partitions. Such "more parted" can be found here on XDA or sammobile.

Follow the steps in this thread.
If boots, then good, if not, then try flashing an ICS firmware. Download from Sammobile.

hey guys
i have flashed a rom finally though odin .. but the device still restarting and can't reach recovery mode
The NAND stuck problem caused by improper pit file .. i changed my pit file and it worked.
but why it still restarting ?!
here is what i did: flashed
Code:
[B]The ROM:[/B] I9300XXELLB_I9300OJVELL3_I9300XXELLA_HOME.tar.md5
[B]The PIT FILE:[/B] M0_20120220.pit
Note that the rom wont flash without the pit file
I had a similar problem with my I9305, would die at 23% of system.img. Fixed by re-flashing using Heimdall - after that, Odin also works again. Apparently a bug in Odin.
(However, in my case, the problem was not caused by repartitioning, nor did I need a PIT file to fix it.)

Have you flashed a firmware with single CSC, modem, code files ? When you make a repartition this is necessary. And you can try an other Odin vetsion. I use permanently 1.84 or change to Heimdall.
Hope this works !

[HELP] sme brick of my galaxy s3

Hi guys, forgive me about my bad english but i'm not english....ok, let's start with my problem.
Today i want to clean my gs3 because i want to make it return to standard condition (i had a 4.2.2 rom). So i follow a guide of an italian android forum (yes i'm italian) to make a deep clean. The problem is now, when i try to flash a stock rom with odin. I put the phone in download mode (in the counter i have only 2), odin recognize it and i press start, but the process stop and says this

I can only enter in download mode rigght now, and when i swich on the phone normally it says "firmware upgrade encoutered an issue, Plese select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
I try the way by kies, but it didn't recognise the phone.

Seeing as your firmware is pre-sds fix, you may have a damaged nand, ....try both these.
Can you boot into stock recovery?
Can you boot into download mode?

Odin, stuck on NAND Write Start

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.

If still failed sry to tell you need to change motherboard aredy. As I faced such issues on my n3 and I able to recovery well using my pit files via Odin without fail. So might be your hardware problem aredy.
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?

can i use this pit or firmware on my GT-I9305 device
is it work?
thanks[/QUOTE]
This will only for n9005. Not 9305.

[Q] Help, soft-bricked

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
<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..
<ID:0/004> File analysis..
<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..

And fails. My phone says "unsupported dev_type" in red.
Can I please get some guidance? I don't know what I did wrong. What rom should I flash with odin? Should I try to flash the SGH-T999 stock rom with odin?

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.
This is the error I get when trying to use CF-ROOT through Odin3 v1.85:

(along with the red "Unsupported dev_type" on my phone in download mode).
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
I did: "adb reboot nvbackup"
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?
Alright, I've tried using the rescure firmware and all the files, but every time I try I get it a FAIL on odin:

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?

Looks promising for $50.
Sorry I've been on this problem for so long guys, I'm just stubborn and can't get over the fact that it's a software brick and I need to replace hardware. :/

Is my S3 dead?

No if you on 4.3 stay with that because of imei problems. It's just that in the link 4.1 had the pit file included and 4.3 didn't. Try the link that @KeTuRr74 gave you and make sure if you have kies on your computer to uninstall it.
Edit also try Odin 1.85 from here >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...08-2013-odin-3-09-odin-1-85-versions-t2189539
