Sounds like an hardware issue. But lets try some of there fixes first.
It might be the Router as mine has done this to me before. Unplug it, count to 30 and plug it back in.
If not the router, I would try flashing the latest stock ROM using Odin to see if it fixes it first.
1. Download Odin 3.07 (i like this version the best)
2. then go to Sammobile.com and make an account and download the stock ROM for it. Go for the firmware section and get your ROM. Get the latest versions.
3. FLASH.
If that doesn't work, I would look at it as having some form of hardware issues.

My bluetooh signal works fine (wifi & bluetooh chip is one chip as I heard in s3)

Problem with newly bought SGSIII.. Kindly help.

Hi friends..
I bought SGSIII yesterday and started to exploring it's options since then.. As it's my first Android I am using some time to getting use to it..
Now here comes my two problems.
1. I am using a wifi router at my house and at first try I was able to connect to it easily.., but since then I am not able to connect again to the same connection. It finds it, tried to connect but then shows saved and then start searching again and couldn't connect it again. I tried factory settings once and the result is still same, can't connect to my wifi again.
2. I tried to root it with both Chainfire tool as well as with SGSIII kit provided here. Both options use ODIN and it's the main problem here.
Once I set my device in Download mode, ODIN doesn't recognize it thus doesn't show anything as detected device and thus I can't go ahead and flash the rooted image thus .tar file .. I am on Windows 8, I tried Windows 7 too but the result is same..
Can anyone suggest me what should I do next.
Thanks..

1) I can't seem to get what the issue with Wifi is but someone might be able to help you out.
2) Seems like you dont have the proper drivers for the device installed. The easiest way to solve this is to download KIES and install it. This will help you get all the necessary drivers and hopefully after that, ODIN should be able to detect the phone. Thats pretty much what I did.

For problem 1.
Call *#0011#
Choose wifi
Turn Power saving mode off.
This is a known problem with some s3's. Including mine. Best to flash cm9 and follow steps above. Its not an exact solution. But is far better than what I was experiencing!

Hmm.., so it seems that this Wifi problem is pretty known one and most of the users facing this.. Well that's not good.. It's still not working even after disabling wifi power saving option.. Will try to restart my router to see if that will help.
@circuit89
My phone connects pretty easily with my PC when it's ON., problem starts when I put it under Download mode and then try to connect it to ODIN..
Any more suggestions.. Thanks for your replies though.
Restarted my router and wifi seems to be working fine again.. Well I hope it will keep working else I would know that why this is happening. Thanks for your suggestions.. Now I am just more concerned about ODIN problem coz I need to root my device and that's much needed issue.. Thanks.

Yup, installing KIES should help .When you connect the phone, usually the drivers required for mass storage are automatically installed. Different drivers are needed to get the PC to recognize the phone when it is download mode.
I guess they are ADB related drivers and I saw a prompt for that while drivers were installing but still to be sure I am installing it to see if that would help. Thanks, will notify the result here soon..
Nope, didn't help.. Installed Samsung Kies latest version too but still the same result..

It seems to be a unique problem, then. I saw this thread and tried uninstalling all my samsung drivers. I let Kies run in the background and connected my phone in download mode when Odin was running. All drivers got successfully reinstalled. Check whether Samsung USB Drivers are installed when you install Kies. Sometimes, it skips those due to errors. I've encountered that once or so.

Not true a few only have this issue .

What happens with Odin ???
Have you replaced Odin with another .

Unticked USB debugging sounds like the problem.

@JJEgan
Yes, I tried with two different ODIN versions..
@ tommy2601
Yes, I did..
@slking1989
It's not..
I will try to remove all drivers .. then install KIES and then put my phone under download mode to see whether it will install all drivers then.. Will update later how it goes.
Ok.. Installed Windows 7 on my PC just to be sure that Windows 8 is not the culprit.., turned out it is not.. It's not working on Windows 7 too..
One thing to specify here is that when phone is on and if I connect it to my PC, ODIN recognize it and ID part turns to blue but not when I put it under Download mode.. so anymore suggestions friends as this is a nightmare to use it without root..
First, get the driver pack from the forum.
Go to the device manager on the computer when the phone is in Download mode and search it (should have a yellow triangle). Then right-click, Update driver.
Let it search on your computer, it should find and activate it within a few seconds

nicesoni_ash, good to see you're here from dailymobile!
This might sound daft but have you tried another cable?
I was getting problems using the cable that came with my phone, which had an HTC sticker on it for some reason.
Switched to the old cable from my N8 and it worked!
Just a heads up.....note that before flashing with Odin ensure kies is closed in sys tray or it may interrupt flashing process

On my system, I could never get the Kies icon to show up in the system tray, however it is running in the background. He might need to kill the Kies processes from Task Manager.

[Q] USB fault

Hello,
I seem to have myself a faulty S2. It charges fine from the wall charger but when i plug in a data cable nothing happens and it isnt recognised by windows and nothing appears on screen. It doesn't even charge from USB unless I turn it off and start it up again with the USB cable already connected. I have tried multiple data cables and operating systems. In linux lsusb lists nothing, even when it's charging after being rebooted. It is a stock ROM and has no warrenty
It is model GT-I9100
Android Version 2.3.5
Baseband I9100NEKI2
Kernel 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKI8-CL616395
build GINGERBREAD.XWKI8
Does anyone know if this is a known fault or if there are any fixes before I open the thing up and try to clean the USB connector, probably breaking the phone in the process....
did you tried to put it in download mode and connect to pc? see if it's recognized. and if goes well flash a freshly stock ROM and see if it works
Sent from my GT-I9100G using xda app-developers app
What crzr, said its most likely to be a software problem I had a friend who had the same problem (but it was working fine at first) he flashed it and everything is OK... Hope you get it working...
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
Soft problem or broken csc. Flash rom again fixed this.

Thanks folks, I though it would be hardware. Flashing might be hard, its not recognised in download mode either. I can get into recovery. I suppose i could try and install mobile odin and see where that takes me.
OK it happened to me and the problem disappeared by reflashing stock ROM wiping all my data. but of course first I'd made a backup of all

Did you unlock it again? I'm guessing since you said you can't root means that you didn't use the stock image that was already rooted. Just had this same issue with a friend, flashed back to stock w/root, factory reset everything, and it worked. Then backed up everything and went to a new rom.
No I didnt unlock. Im uploading pics to show my problem.
My phone is not detected at all when plugged up to pc its just charged so no adb or rooting commands.
I used CASUAL but when it tries to push the PIT file it fails. Odin also fails when trying to use the PIT file and when it comes to flashing the modem

You made sure to put it in to debugging mode too, right?
Of course, thats simple.
Phone isnt recognized at all when plugged to pc.
Not in mtp, ptp, or adb. Nothing at all except indication that its in a power source.

You said you used casual and when it tried to push the pit it failed.
Check your drivers or try another PC
I have a version of causal that does work on 4.1.2 and also allows u to start the command from download mode so thats how I was able to try casual.
Yes im 100% I have all drivers correct

hi,
ideally, Nand Erase All option is not to be selected in Odin which you selected....this option has unexpected problem like the one you encountered and hence this is the cause of your handset issue of Banseband & IMEI unknown. Please avoid this option in future.
Thanks,

I tried it without also. Same result. Ive tried flashing all android versions 4.1.2, which is the one i got the phone with and yes it was in this condition. Ive also tried 4.1.1 and 4.3. All stop at modem but one stopped at tz.img

Have you tried a different cable, for some reason it seems this phone is picky on what cables and even what USB port it wants to work on. Don't use a USB 3.0 port use a US 2.0.

Have you tried wireless adb? What about airdroid? Just wondering exactly where you stand? Did the phone show a notification when plugged in? The Devil is in the details.

[Q] Update and problems

Hello there, I have I9300XXUGMK6 currently on my phone, and I was wondering if I could put the I9300XXUGND5 update, so as to know if it is more stable and whether bugs are fixed.
I currently have a bug about connecting phone to pc via usb as well as charging.
It always says "Usb connector connected" then say ".... disconnected"
Had also a problem with car mode coming on and off.
You would be better to factory reset after the update, sounds like you have either corrupt data or system.
If still the same then flash the whole firmware using Odin, follow the guide in general forum. Download the right firmware for your county at sammobile.com
