*HELP* Soft Bricked Galaxy s3 [Boost Mobile] - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, Thanks for taking the time out to read my post
Sorry if i sound a little noobish. Bear with me. I've been at this for days and its disappointing because i just bought the phone a few days ago.
I Soft Bricked My Galaxy s3 from Boost Mobile, Long story short I had gotten it rooted and i was trying to fix the native wifi-tethering, But when i flashed the file it soft bricked.
After that, I tried flashing my original file to Bring my phone back to life, but I had an error in Philz Recovery.
It seems like its not reading my phones memory or something. I can only access files from my sd card.
So i tried flashing a rom in Philz and it actually seemed to work until turned out to be for the sprint model of the S3, Even though the top of the post where i got it from It said: for Boost Mobile -_-
Because after i flashed it my phone was still soft bricked, But instead of showing the boost mobile boot, Now its showing Sprint!!!
Since then, I've tried flashing different .tar files for my phone with odin but everytime I get a FAIL.
Here's what the log looks like if that helps
<ID:0/005> Added!!

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> L710VPUCND8_L710SPRCND8_L710VPUCND8_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

Also there's an error message on my phone
SECURE CHECK FAIL : aboot
Not sure If i should be trying to flash The Boost Mobile .tar file or the Sprint one now?[since my boot screen changed] I just want it to be back on boost mobile.
I think I found the right .tar for my phone on the boost mobile model but I just cant get it to work. =[
Sorry if it was a long post i just wanted to make sure whoever wanted to help had all the details.
ANY help will be appreciated! Thanks In Advance!!!!!

[Q] Odin fails at modem.bin

Hi,
I'm trying to flash another firmware for my GIalaxy Note 10.1 N8000. I have read all tutorials etc. and prepared all according to it.
I was able to succesfully root to Clockwork Recovery so i though flashing another firmware to turn the Note into a European one instead of Chinese would be easy too. WRONG!!
Every time i want to flash with Odin it fails in the beginning of the process, see below:
Is there anyone who could comment me on what to do? I was able to recover from the failed flash attempt but i really want to flash another firmware from Europe for this Chinese version.

I tried already two different Firmwares but both seem to fail at the same point. I only installed the USB drivers not KIES so i guess it is not the reason.
Any help what is going wrong or what i should try to do?
Thanks a lot far any help.

Even it is a generic question you might get an answer if you post it in the correct forum.
You are here in the Galaxy Tab 10.1 P7500/7501/7510/7511 forum! This is not for Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000.

[Q] help with rooting galaxy note 3 SM-N900T: RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING

Hello,
This is my first post so I'm sorry of I put it in the wrong forum.
I have a Samsung galaxy note 3 SM-N900T (T-Mobile US). It was fresh out of the box.
I followed the tutorial on this site for rooting my specific model, and it got to the rebooting phase and "crashed".
It said:
RECOVERY BOOTING....
RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
Set Warranty Bit : recovery
[/COLOR]about 1:45 seconds later, much longer than the guy in the video said, Odin finally said pass, with a build time of 2:10.
it does not go past that on its own.
The Odin message box is:

I can trick it into rebooting by unplugging and removing the battery, then booting into modification mode and clicking cancel.
Please help,

weird. I just got a replacement from T-Mobile ....I'm trying to root again, and using CF-auto root I'm getting the exact same thing. I wish I could help...but hopefully one of us will get something figured out and get this figured out.
This will fix it, I had the same problem!

[Q] Soft bricked SCH-I545!! HELP PLEASE!!!

I made the mistake of trading phones with a guy whose GS4 was rooted with SS recovery and there were no MSD in it when we traded. I brought it home, restarted it. And it began to get stuck on the "FIRMWARE UPGRADE ENCOUNTERED AN ISSUE. PLEASE SELECT RECOVERY MODE IN KIES & TRY AGAIN." which I know to not use Kies as it was useless to me when I had my first GS4 at time of launch. I am fairly new at this with a gs4. I have tried and tried with ODIN v3.07. I have been on here and looking through forums and I went to other forums besides xda with countless different trials. NONE have been even the slightest bit helpful...
I was wondering since it was stuck on the devilish yellow triangle screen. I can not even get past this to get the launcher... could ADB be the problem since I can't get it to even boot up to enable it?
before anyone asks, to which will waste both our time....
yes, i have used the stock vz firmware and placed it in the PDA section in ODIN
THIS IS WHAT I GET EVERY TIME.

Are you sure you were on ME7? You might need to flash a newer firmware.

This has happened to me about four times with my phone. I was able to fix through a process of Kies and Odin. It seems that if you do all that you can in Kies, as far as attempting to re-install the stock firmware. Kies has the drivers you need in order for Odin to work. You will need to run through the Kies process (it will fail), but you will get the drivers you need. You will then need to boot into download mode and do the Odin flash process. This is all assuming you have the correct files for Odin. You will need to flash the stock build afterwards unless you have a backup and are able to access safestrap which i doubt you will have.

Getting this kind of log from odin. note this is copy from another thread, otherwise same but buildnumber is different..
I can't even flash twrp/philz recovery. without getting some error, PIT related.
I can't access recovery by anymeans as it wil boot up to that ''smart switch blablabla'' and pc will say it is not supported etc.
I only can access download-mode.
I have tried flash stock 5.1.1 PIT but it makes no difference.
This is 32gb model. How deep i'm in brown?
Got this working!
First i used odin 3.10.7 -> all fails
Then tried 3.10.6 -> first try successfully only that hidden.img was failed but i extracted from firmware and and flashed it after that.
Hope this helps someone.
if you had used smart switch on your pc, it was a lot easier............:good:

Have you fixed this? You do know by flashing a firmware all your data will be deleted. So do you want the data or the phone to flash and work?
i'have upgraded the firmware...now work's fine...i have tried many firmwares. now the 6.01 working fine!
