What phone have you got because this is the Galaxy I9300 international forum and the files listed above are for the verizon S3 so you have either flashed the wrong files or you are in the wrong forum.

i see.. so that was my mistake.. i try another file!

Noob tried to use Odin, bricked phone?

Tmobile t959 samsung galaxy s vibrant
Hey guys, I had version 2.2 on my phone. I had this phone for about 1.5 years so I figured, why not update a custom flash?
Anyways, so I googled a friendly newbie guide, as I have no experience with phones. I used odin with a custom flash and it failed giving this message:

Now I cant use my phone at all. I can get back into downloading mode, with the yellow android shoveling, but no matter what i load for a rom file, it always gives me an error. I tried searching endlessly, and I cant figure anything out.
Please, someone, I would really appreciate it if i could get some help. Is there anything I can try? This didnt work from the start...I first thought it was my usb drivers i even updated them but I dont know why I keep getting this fail error message:
Can a mod please delete this? I was doing the stupidest mistake...I was selecting file under PHONE instead of PDA....and I just saw in a youtube video someone selected PDA....as soon as I did that it worked!!!
really bricked phone is solved only by service tools
is not bricked because a really bricked phone will not boot in download mode it's like dead better is to say "is not booting" and the way to solve a "bricked" phone is to flash a stock rom that surely works you have to try many times because you don not know what rom was previously on the phone
1.get a stock rom on sammobile
2.also get corresponding Odin an pit file from there
3.flash by Odin in download mode
if not working try another rom also check if you have Android SDK an Kies make sure you have these tools- you need adb interface working and samsung drivers installed
when in download mode open Device Manager start/run/devmgmt.msc and check if you have adb interface active if not install Odin and SDK then restart PC and try again in download mode...
(don't do anything until you see something like this is Dev Manager -you see this only when phone is connected to PC yes in download mode)
tips
-pit file tells Odin how to flash files on phone in what order and how to so unpack rom and check if you see at least 3 md5 files : CSC/Modem/PDA not all roms are complete don't use a pit file until you have these 3 files in archive
-if Odin says "done" but phone is not booting try to enter recovery and (should work if you downloaded a complete rom ) ...and wipe data/cache/Dalvik-cache then reboot
-if you see ADB Interface connected in Dev Manager it means your phone is in download mode and is not bricked so can be solved ! do not believe me just try !
-if you do not see this install (again) everything/ use another computer and try again! if you don't get a sign this is bricked and send it in service don't lose time

[Q] System update bricked my phone!?!

I have a Samsung S3 on O2 (UK). Yesterday I got a system update notification and I downloaded and installed the update (it was quite big, about 300MB). There were no issues during the install and it restarted fine when it finished, however about an hour later the phone just restarted itself on its own (it was in my pocket) and then just kept looping the restart process over and over. I couldnt get the phone to get passed the logo screen. I tried removing the battery, sim card, etc but nothing helped. I read in a post here to try to use the "Recovery Mode" to restart the device. I did that and it worked, I was able to get the phone started again, but about half an hour later it did exactly the same thing but this time I couldn't get into recovery mode anymore! I read a few more posts on this forum and it looked like the update had soft bricked my phone. I could get the phone into download mode so I thought I would try using Odin to re-install the stock firmware. I followed the instructions on the post to the letter, downloaded the correct firmware from Samsung, installed the USB drivers for the phone but when I tried to use Odin it just said the the update failed. Now when I turn on the phone I get the message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again". I have read a few posts on suggested work arounds but no matter what I try Odin always just gets stuck on "Nand Start Write!!!". I have tried re-installing the USB driver, using a different cable and even a diff computer but always the same.
Can anyone help? This is really annoying. I have never tried to do a root or mess around with the phone so it seems really odd that something like this would happen following a standard update
P.S These are the instructions I followed when I tried to re-install the official firmware - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1671969

Its not letting me boot to recovery mode anymore. I can boot to download mode but when I try to boot to recovery mode it just keeps looping the startup screen which at the moment is the error message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again"
Then flash a stock ROM image through Odin
You only need to boot into download mode for odin download the relevant firmware package and odin when you connect it via usb in download mode you will notice the first com port on odin turn yellow to indicate a device is connected
Do a search for detailed instructions buddy

Hmmm. When I connect the phone it makes the sound in Windows that the phone has been connected but then in Odin the com port is blue not yellow. Does that mean that it has not detected the phone properly?

Yeah, you probably have corrupted NAND :/, take it for warranty repair, they will replace the mainboard. :thumbup:

The emmc chip is corrupt/damaged, try the rescue firmware from general forum.
do you tried redownloading the fw? maybe the file is corrupt. one time i had odin failing to flash my phone because of odin itself wrong version(using 3.07 it flashed straight) otherwise try follow a brick recovery guide.
I've tried this + RESCUE FIRMWARE SGSIII I9300 + method :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6
But the Flash always fail at system.img
i am having the same problem.. tried with odin, kies, recovery firmware method all failed.. any solutions?? or its only need emmc chip repacement. service center told me motherboard replacement. any solutions would be appreaciated..

Hello, sorry to revive such an old post.
Today my S3 died EXACTLY like OP described. Did OP or anybody here found a solution to this problem? The phone can still boot up in download mode, so not everything is lost. However, it seems like it got so corrupted that even the Samsung logo became white with stripes, just like the OP said. I tried flashing a new recovery so I can reinstall the OS safely, but it fails in Odin and says "There is no PIT partition".
Yesterday it was OK, it happened overnight. I didn't still anything at all recently because the phone is so old and slow I only istall the apps that I need to communicate.
Any help would be appreciated!
Are you flashing with the original Samsung USB on a USB 2.0 port?
