[i9305] Mobile/Recovery/Downlaod mode doesn't work - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Good morning,
Today I decised to change my ROM. I installed ported to i9305 LTE ArchiDroid v2 (I had done before full wipe and backups). It was my first "Kitkat". I broken something at interface (there were a lot of otpions to choose) so I decided to "make backup" from mobile, not recovery (I had CWM). My S3 had restarted and I saw "laoding screen and loading" of ArchiDroid and every times it went to CWM. I wanted to make backup and... all of my backups were deleted. So I put The Galaxy Project on my SD card and installed it. And my phone didn't start.
It stuck in screen "Samsung Galaxy S3 i9305".
After X times I got access into download mode. I wanted to install clear 4.3 but Odin made "FAIL".
Now I have on boot (normal, CWM and download mode) this: "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Please select recovery mode in Kie and & again."
I tried to "repair it" via Kies but it needs working recovery mode... But I haven't :/
It has only 1 month but with Knox=1. If'll give it at warranty" can they check a flag or custom rom, installed X times or something? But I prefer to repair it in my phone.
How can I repair my phone? Please, help me.

this is i9300's forum ,are you sure you got the correct ROM for your device ? I'm afraid if you flashed a i9300 rom on i9305 you did a brick .
Ask in i9305 forum

[Q] Galaxy S2 Stuck At Boot Screen

Hello, sorry if this has already been answered but I did look around at similar scenarios and it seems to me that using odin to flash the stock kernel should fix it but on my device, however, it doesn't fix my problem. I beleive what I did was select update firmware from .zip in clockwork on accident. Idk if this is what you consider a "boot loop" because it doesnt restart it just sits there at the black galaxy s2 screen. Any insight would be great. I hate to have to buy a new one as it is quite alot of money. Like I said, sorry if this is already answered but after looking around for hours I still hve had no luck. Thanks in advance, Alex
Can you get into recovery (volume up+home+power) or download mode (volume down+home+power)?
I can get in to download and recovery mode both
The outlook is promising then. Without knowing what you've flashed, it's impossible to say what damage you've done, but if you don't mind losing your data, you can certainly get back to a working state by following [READ THIS] Got a Boot Loop? Don't post a New Thread!.
Before going down that route though, if you do want to keep your data, let us know what you flashed as it might be recoverable (maybe you just flashed the wrong kernel).
I can't say for sure what i flashed but I can say that i either flashed with an update or updated with a kernel??? sound right??? idk. the data isnt near as important to me as the 680 dollars my carrier will charge me for a new s2. Right now im using a junk alcatel tribe and im going through galaxy withdrawls.
Well before flashing anything else, make sure you definitely have an I9100, not some other variant (I notice you mentioned dollars). If you have a different model, you're in the wrong forums and might make things worse by following advice for the I9100.
I was pretty sure that it is the I9100 but i took the battery out and double checked. it IS the I9100
also for what it's worth when going into recovery(stock version) right after the text reading updating application it gives me an error in red. (E:install_application_for_customer:Can't unmount /preload copy application failed) and after the (Appling [yes it really spells it appling] Multi-CSC) it says Can't access to '/system/csc/TTT/system/'. However, the line after it says that it says Successfully applied multi-CSC
My first attempt to get back to a working phone without losing data would be to flash a stock kernel then, have you tried that?
Ok.. done.. but it still sits at the galaxy screen except now it has the triange due to the custom firmware
If that hasn't got you up and running then it's probably time to bite the bullet and follow the instructions from the boot loop thread linked above (which will also remove the triangle).
Maybe you can answer another question for me. When in recovery mode it says apply update from sdcard... why does it say that when it doesnt actually read from the sdcard? i have checked with the sdcard both in and out and the file directory in the recovery mode doesnt change. is it calling the usb storage an sd card?
ok when flashing a stock rom do i use the phone option in odin or the pda still
If you're flashing a stock rom from [ROM+Guide]Official i9100 Firmwares KG, KH1/2/3/4, KI1/2/3/4/8, KJ1/2 Download, then just follow the instructions from there (but usually PDA).
:'( Still wont boot.
What does happen, did any steps fail, any error messages?
Everything went smooth with no errors. No steps failed. Sitting at the boot screen is all it does though
Did you definitely wipe user data? (step 3). The final step of that thread is to try flashing a ROM which wipes, such as (non-stock) VillainROM 1.1.
well... yes i definitely wiped the user data and it was successfull when doing so. I didnt try the villian rom just because I thought that it was an optional thing but i will def. try it now that you bring it up. and hey, i really appreciate the help no matter what the outcome
(VillainROM 1.1 - XWKE7 base) I'm a UHKG7..... is this going to be a problem? just something i noticed and thought I would ask before going ahead

Phone won't boot!

Hi there!
I just got my brand new Samsung Galaxy S III, international version.
I should have known that you shouldn't mess with your phone when you haven't slept the night before (I have a baby )
The facts:
It was a branded Spanish Vodafone phone. I rooted it using the Toolkit and used Voodoo to unlock it.
Then I flashed, using Odin, this firmware to unbrand it (I9300XXBLFB_I9300OXABLFB_BTU).
I used Titanium backup to restore All application and Data (I think this was a mistake). Then, when I saw Rom Manager, thought: "How nice, let's see if it works". It asked what phone I had, and one of the three options was the S III. I chose that and it tried to download and installa a custom recovery. But failed and Android told me that it didn't respond.
Meanwhile, Titanium was doing its thing and I started to see several "android.core" errors.
I tried to restart the phone, but it get's stuck in the Samsung logo. Just after making the boot sound. It slowly blinks blue and white.
I can get in Download mode, but I've tried to flash everything I have been able to think of, with no result.
Could anybody help me?
Thanks in advance

I9300 soft brick (messy) - please help

Hi - I tried posting this in Development where I thought it should go but I haven't posted at all before so it won't let me.
I've gotten myself into a very messy (and probably stupid) situation with firmware with my I9300 - there's a very real chance I think that it is non-recoverable, but if anyone could give me some advice on what else to try I would be extremely grateful!
My problem:
Galaxy S3 I9300 16gb international won't boot - stuck at Device Name screen.
Won't boot into recovery
Will boot into download mode
Odin connects to device, but trying to flash stock ROM freezes at 'NAND Write Start!' or just FCs ("Odin has stopped working" reported by Windows
Heimdall won't recognise my device (does it even work with the s3? I don't know) so I can't print a PIT or anything
How I got here (over about 4 weeks):
Started with I9300 16gb international version (Grey import from Hong Kong to Australia, booted in French but let me change to English)
Gained root access through CWM touch kernel and Odin
Flashed AOKP Milestone 6 ROM
Used 'Secure Settings' (app) and 'Locale' (app) to set up a lockscreen PIN that enabled and disabled dynamically according to location rules (worked pretty well!)
Decided I wanted to encrypt my device
Clicked through all warnings, followed instructions to set PIN (didn't disable Secure Settings, the app that allowed the lockscreen changes outlined above)
Encryption successful, booted successfully using the PIN set
Lockscreen goes funny - 'quick PIN' option in AOKP (where you don't have to press OK after entering the PIN correctly) stops working
Any PIN at all at this point will unlock my device
Reboot to discover that my original encryption PIN has stopped working
Seriously, I tried it like 20 times including slight variations in case I mistyped, and other PINs that I use in case I misremembered
Rebooted into CWM to try to flash a new ROM
Can't access internal SD due to encryption
Use Galaxy S3 Toolkit to 'download and flash new stock rom, kernel using Odin'
Didn't know which firmware to download so i went with option 5 (GT-I9300_BTU_I9300XXALF2_I9300OXAALF2_I9300XXLF2)
Odin connects sucessfully, flashes device
Device reboots into 'Trouble with firmware upgrade - connect to samsung kies to fix' (or whatever it says)
Download and install Kies (i had the USB drivers for the phone installed previously)
Kies won't recognise my phone on any level for emergency recovery
Decide that the internal SD card encryption is causing the problems, and that maybe I need to repartition
Don't notice all the warnings about repartitioning
Download PIT files for I9300 from somewhere
Try reflashing ROM using one of these PITs (I didn't know any better so I just used GT-I9300_mx_20120329.pit, which in retrospect is probably for a device with different internal storage size)
Phone stopped giving me 'Firmware update problem' screen and started going to the 'GT I9300' booting screen, but never got past that point
Repeat ad infinitum - I've tried flashing several different stock ROMs, using several PITs and am now at the point mentioned above.
Only other information I have really is that on the back cover behind the battery it says 'Model GT-I9300' and 'SSN-I9300GSMH' if those are important.
Other forums seem to indicate that I have a NAND read/write issue, but trying to flash a stock kernel (which was the advice given) results in... 'NAND write start!' freeze :\
Like I said, I have no idea if this is recoverable in any way at this point, but if anyone has any ideas I'd love to hear them!
Thanks
Hi. This probably wont help, but try to use fresh odin download and other pc with new drivers installed without Sam Kies. older versions of odin did not worked with mine s3 and I had green screen while flashing problems when I used my old laptop to flash. Fresh pc with fresh drivers did the trick

Hi - Thanks for the tip, but I already tried with my wife's laptop. Should have mentioned in the original post.
Thanks again.
Older versions of Odin do work on SGS3 .
evelopment where I thought it should go but I haven't posted at all before so it won't let me.
Development only posts not Q&A nothing to do with 10 posts .
Two thoughts could be the usual flashed multiple stuff and phone is confused plus wrong PIT file flashed .
Thats just firmware not hardware problem .
Or indeed at some stage Nand is corrupt .
Solution would be
Try correct PIT file first before a repair centre .
jje
Just wanted to say that I have the same problem, but mine is even more strange. I can boot into the system but I have to disable wifi and mobile data right away otherwise the phone will reboot after a couple of seconds. I see the phone if I connect it to the computer but I can not write or read the files on the phone. But I tried the toolbox and could push an apk to the phone.
CWM works but if I try to wipe or flash another rom it reboots, some stuff works and other just reboots the phone.
Download-mode works and Odin finds the phone but everything I have tried fails. I have tried standard stock firmware, 3 part firmware and PIT but it always hangs on NAND Write.
If anyone has some solution I would be thrilled.

It can be solved using Odin if you get the official and correct Stock ROM for your SGS3. And/Or you might have been using the Wrong PIT.
And finally, No idea about heimdall ;p
Try this process: Samsung Galaxy S3 Not Booting? Here’s The Solution You can get detailed instructions here and that .PIT file too.:angel:

It worked!
PIT flash successful, then stock rom restored
I still needed to go in to stock recovery and do a factory reset from there to undo the encryption.
Thanks so much for everyone's help.
I am glad that It worked for you
I am still stuck, I am guessing that if none of the PIT´s work then it is officially bricked?

Hello, the PIT Flash didn't work for me either.
I was CF-rooted while overseas and stupidly forgot to disable auto-updates. The tricky part was that the auto update probably was for a different region as I was in Europe when the brick happened, but I live in Singapore.
Have tried to flash the firmware several times using Odin and even the PIT but all have been unsuccessful. I've been stuck a "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue....".
Have been able to get to the download screen but not the recovery mode.
Any pointers or is my phone rightly bricked?
I fixed my half brick using Android 4.0.4 ICS XXLAF2 stock firmware
My old stuff is still on my sd card, but not usable tho :s
Any tips? cant seem to restore with rom manager. It only fails

Hey Anil,
I have encrypted at&t samsung gs3 running CM10.1 nightly. For some reason I cannot undo the encryption. I want to use the method described on this link that you posted here to get rid of encryption.
I have downloaded official firmware from sammobile. But the .pit file available on that site is for internation version. I have at&t GS3 so i should be using the .PIT for at&t version. Could you please provide me .PIT for 16GB at&t Samsung galaxy s3, if you have one or you know the link? Ii appreciate your help.
please help me with this man.
-Ravi

Worked well
The method given by Anil worked fine.
And since my device was encrypted before, it asked me password after installing the firmware by Odin.
So for this I just entered recovery (Sam recovery) and did a factory reset, and the encryption was removed.:good:
Dude don't post ur serial or imie

Before you pay for a repair you can try flashing stock rom via Odin .

Please help!!! Galaxy S3 won't boot!!! But can go download and recovery mode

please help me! I'm new here, so "A thousand pardons to you all for making myself such a headache to you all"... S3 won't boot, but it can go download, and recovery mode..
So here's the story, my dad told me to root his phone and make it overclock. First I rooted it using CF-Auto Root, and it worked really fne, no problems at all. Next, I searched the web, and came across the siyah kernel. I downloaded it's tar file form its site, which directed me to another site that lets me choose between the cwm flashable and the odin one which is the tar file.
After that, the screen flashes the model of the s3, then the logo of siyah, which is the freaky eye thingi. Then it would just go black, I waited 30 mins but nothing happened at all. Based on my research and gut feeling, it got bricked, or worse... HARD BRICKED!!! but I knew it wasn't hard bricked cause it could go download and recovery mode...Such a blessing..
I didn't want any trouble from my Dad, looking right at me with his bricked phone and me helplessly doing nothing, I tried stupid things like, somewhat stupid. Like searching for some random stock kernel (to replace Siyah) of s3 like the gt-i9300 xxx something with it's bootloader and then flashing it using odin pc and phone in download mode (cause I didn't know what to use but I'm very certain its GT-I9300). When I did that the logo of siyah kernel wasn't there anymore. But then again didn't boot...
PLEASE HELP!!! Excluding the method of USB jig, and bringing it to Samsung services.. Any help information about my current situation is really appreciated
More information:
Binary count is 4
CWM recovery enabled
Download recovery enabled
CF-Auto Root used to root
Siyah kernel was previous kernel, but replaced by kernel and bootloader I9300XXEMF1.tar
The last thing I did was to wipe cache partition and factory reset.
Current problem:
Won't boot
What I want to happen:
Bring back to its orginial state, without root, like I bought an S3
Again, it's an honor to be here at XDA Thank you all!

[q] grand duos stucked at logo screen after installing chainfire 3d

Guys, i am in serious problem here so this thread is not so decorated. :crying:
Hi, My Device Details are Follows:
SAMSUNG GALAXY GRAND DUOS I9082.
Rooted with ClockWord Mod ( CWM ) 6
I recently downloaded Chainfire 3d with a greed to run hard core games smoothly. And after installing, my pdone stucked at Samsung Logo Screen.
I Done All These:
Cleared All Cache, DAlvic Cache, Reset, etc.
'ADB Shell' isn't working (i think it is becouse MY MTP DRIver isnt installed properly. i tried to reinstall to but it fails.)
What Should i do ?
Should i go to service centre ?
Moderators, as i am newbie here, plz dont delete this thread if i added it on wrong place!
If you already have cwm recovery,just instal a custom rom

Chainfire doesn't work on anything past Gingerbread (and not even on every device), which is why you had this problem. This forum has dozens (100s?) of posts from people that did the same thing. A factory reset or clearing caches does not affect the /system partition so that wouldn't be of any help after you installed Chainfire. Your options are to install a custom rom or use Odin to restore the phone to stock with the original firmware. Don't let this scare you from modding your phone, but you have to research more about what you are trying to do and since you already have CWM, utilize the built in backup function. If you would have done even that, you could have just booted back to CWM and restored your entire set up and all you would have lost is about 10-15 minutes of time.
Plz tell whole process in installing custom rom

Thats the problem friend, i haven't made a backup of my phone before installing CH3D driver. Coz i thought that installing driver will not malfunction my phone. :crying:
Plz tell me the link of original Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos i9082 STOCK ROM or Custom Rom And the process.
( I think the process may be to Download the Rom in zip format and put it in SD Card and then open CWM recovery Mod and Install Zip from SD Card. )
But I have tried to Do that in CWM-touch-i9082-chotu.tar but after doing that, the Logo comes and phone goes off and restarts again and this process goes for unlimited times. :crying:

( I think the process may be to Download the Rom in zip format and put it in SD Card and then open CWM recovery Mod and Install Zip from SD Card. )
But I have tried to Do that in CWM-touch-i9082-chotu.tar but after doing that, the Logo comes and phone goes off and restarts again and this process goes for unlimited times. :crying:

You've got to wipe/factory data reset your phone before you flash the rom.
It's fine that you are new to this, as we all have to start somewhere, but the fact that you are new means that you should do more reading about what to do and what not to do. There is an entire sub-forum here on XDA dedicated to your phone. Any question you've had has most likely been asked and answered multiple times. I suggest reading the stickies in the General forum for your phone and there's even a Help and Troubleshooting section there.
FInally I send it to SERVICE CENTRE and got it repaired.

FInally, I repaired my I9082 from service centre at a cost of 2.75$.
They upgraded it to 4.2.2.
NOW, I WANT TO KNOW THAT WHAT SHOULD I DO THAT BOOT-LOOP DOESN'T ENCOUNTER AGAIN. ?
NEW FEARURES IN 4.2.2 (discovered by me)-
1. Changed Look
2. Settings is divided by 4 parts
3. Data usage from both SIM can be seen.
4. SAFETY ASSISTANCE is added.
5. DEVELOPER OPTIONS is hidden (Unhide it by Tapping 7 times on BUILD NUMBER. (See attached pic ))
6. MOVING INSTALLED APPS TO SD CARD IS SUPPERTED. (See Application Manager)
BUGS IN ANDROID 4.2.2 (Discovered by me)-
1. Freezing of Device (happened once) due to TouchWiz Home hanged.

Seriously...? Read what it says on the very first line of the thread about Chainfire 3D: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087427 and think about what happened after you installed it. A little bit of common sense is needed here to stay out of trouble.
