Hi all,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 with a default ROM, rooted and with clockworkmod installed.
Yesterday night I let it charging and working fine. This morning was freezed on the startup screen, the one that says "Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I93000" and was not possible to go over it. I checked for similar posts in the forum but no one had the same characteristics, all could go further the starting screen.
I tried the next:
- Normal restart: Nothing, same screen
- Take out the battery: Nothing, same screen
- Try to enter in recovery mode (power+home+vol up): Nothing, same screen
- Try to enter in download mode (power+home+vol down): Success, i'm download mode.
What can I do now? there is any chance to enter without re-installing rom and wiping the whole content?
Please, any help is welcome. I'm without mobile meanwhile
Thank you in advance
If the phone does not start in normal mode and recovery mode but it starts in download mode, try to flash a rom Samsung not wipe, if it fails to start still not done with the full wipe rom SAMSUNG

Hi, thank you for the fast answer.
I just found the original stock image that i had:
Country/Carrier: Poland (Play)
Date:2012 July
Android: 4.0.4
PDA:I9300XXBLFB
CSC:I9300PRTBLG1
I will turn the phone in download mode and I will connect with Odin.
Sorry about the newbie question: How I flash a new ROM on the phone without wiping all?
Best Regards

I tried to restore a PIT file but is failing the whole time
At the end the user told that he brought it to a Samsung service and they changed the "charging regulator" and now the phone is working. :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31105754&postcount=34
I don't have any service shop here were I live
Any other idea that I could try?
Thank you in advance

Try to flash a ROM Samsung Jelly Bean (They Do Requires PDA only normally) and do not put anything in pit
Personally I no longer believe too
Yeah Im having the same problem...
apparently the chip that stores boot got non-functional data or something...missed-up in other words
anyhow...from several threads I looked up,,,,only 2 things can solve this , either Jtag repair the phone (check google) or service the phone, but if the flash counter shows in download mode they might not do it on warranty...
my phone has been in service for 3 days now, still didn't tell me if they'll service on warranty or not, luckily I used triangle reset before, everything shows as official samsung except custom rom.
Thank you for the replies.
Regarding bringing it to the service, I have another small issue. I got my mobile in PL. A friend wanted an internet contract there and with that contract the phone was really cheap, so I pay the phone and he kept the SIM....and I live in Germany
I will try to bring it to any shop, let's see what they tell me.
Another question now: I had an original stock ROM, but I just root it to be able to make full backups. They can realize about this entering just in download mode? Is normal that I see "Odin Mode" when I enter in download mode?
Thank you all

Download mode is already integrated in the smartphone by cons they may know that you have changed the phone because this flash counter in download mode they would have had to turn away a triangle reset the counter but hey it is not possible because you can not start the phone
Download Mode

In my situation, my S3 is in download mode but the computer can not see it through a com (up-to-date Odin and Kies can not see my GS3). What should I do?
Messing with PIT maybee ruined your phone.
If it s in warranty maybee they flash it for you. I´ve experienced that before with no problems but I know that it voyds the warranty flashing PIT and rooting.
Maybee you re lucky in the samsung service, in your position I was that way. Jtag is very risky and voyds warranty forever. If you pay in samsung for the boot repair you continue to have your warranty again and for the price of a Jtag intervention I would pay a bit more and continue having warranty.
S3 frozen on boot screen while rooting
Hello everyone,
I'm new around here and i apologize if posting in the wrong place....
I have a similar problem: I decided to root my S3 (UK unlocked) and followed one of many tutorials on YouTube (made by galaxys3root). Everything seemed to be easy and started well until at the point when the S3 must reboot. At that point the phone got stuck, and the only thing i can do is to go in downloading mode.
Odin gives me this

While the phone is stuck on the boot screen my PC (Win 7 Ultimate) does not recognize the device, while if the phone is in downloading mode, the PC has the driver for it.
I went through a few more topics on this forum which described something similar, tried a few of the suggestions made by others but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone has a solution for this or I should take the phone in service?
I would appreciate any advise!
I'm quite the beginner so if you could use a technical "friendly" language it would be great
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

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!!!!!
Try posting in the right forum, this is for the i9300 only.
Pretty sure i bricked this to no repair.
So got my Sprint s6 edge few months ago and rooted it a week after. Sadly i dont know what i used rom wise to root it since its been a month+. Sadly i reformated pc awhile back so can't see the files i used.
Got bored and wanted to try and install xposed to add some new features to my phone. So just tried and i'm prety sure i bricked it hard...
what i followed
gs6.wonderhowto.com/how-to/install-xposed-framework-your-samsung-galaxy-s6-s6-edge-0163918/
It said make a recovery so i did by following
gs6.wonderhowto.com/how-to/install-custom-recovery-your-galaxy-s6-s6-edge-0161619/
I did what he did and after it asked for a reboot i rebooted and it got stuck on samsung boot logo saying "Recovery not SEANDROID Enforcing" in top left corner.
So i googled how to remove root and how to get past this screen and many suggested stock rom. I tried that and odin (v3.09) wont get past "Write NAND!"
I let it set for 20 minutes and nothing happened so i googled and everyone claimed trying different usb hubs and cables so i did that. I've tried every usb hub on my pc(8) and all 3 cables i had. So then tried different version v3.10.7 of odin and it fails with following

SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 3, BINARY: 1
So now i'm just lost and scared at what to do. I googled "SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 3, BINARY: 1" And my findings are just to use stock rom...but thats what i did in first place. So now i'm stuck with a phone that is continuously rebooting itself to the samsung boot logo....
G925PVPU1AOCF_G925PSPT1AOCF_G925PVPU1AOCF_HOME.tar.md5 is the rom im trying to flash with and i believe it is stock because got it off this forum from a post claiming it was the new stock updated rom.
Can someone please help? I can skype or teamspeak or ventrilo or just use this forum to help me but i'm beyond confused on what to do now...
edit- phone is continuously rebooting itself to the samsung boot logo...but i managed to make it stop by making phone sit in download mode...
edit2- i can not go into recovery or safe mode. All i can do is wtach my phone go to the boot logo "Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge" screen then to black screen back to boot screen. And i can put it into download mode.... Thats it...The brick is real...
edit 3- 40 views and not one help lol, seems i'll be craigslist shopping soon.
You tripped the Knox counter, that is for sure. Since you can enter download mode that means it is still possible to install the stock firmware. Did you use the correct firmware for your model?

Is the stock rom i used to try and fix that recovery screwup.
i tried G925PVPU3BOJ7_G925PSPT3BOJ7_G925PVPU3BOJ7_HOME.tar which is a 5.1.1 stock rom and still same results!!!
Try performing a log cat. That is a low skill technique of diagnosing problems in android during a boot loop.

I have a custom recovery called, "teamwin recovery project 3.0,2-0" I've gone thru the settings and found a wipe menu, it doesnt work. I've factory reset, reset the cache,system,data, even format data. Didnt work.
Im totally out of options and i really dont want a bricked phone, beacuse i still have another year and a half in my contract... Please help
You will have to flash a stock rom back to your device. If you can't find one then you may have to send it in for repair.
reply
Yeah, that is what i just did now! It worked, its now stuck in a boot cycle. turning on going to the galaxy s6 loading screen, flashes to the tmobile loading screen, then resets its cycle.
How do you fix this?

Your phone is in android boot loop which is a common issue with android phones.
Solution;
Enter your phone into recovery mode by pressing and holding "Power + Volume Up + Home" in the power down status.
Now in the recovery mode perform, "wipe cache partition" and "factory data reset".
If this didn't worked, flash it with stock firmware.
SOLVED
My phone is working 100% now thanks
Apologies if this has already been dealt with but Ive looked and cant find solution anywhere, 2 weeks looking through forums so far or I'm looking at wrong solutions or Im stupid and and keep following bread trails that take me into the nether regions of cyberspace never to be heard of again. I am trying to restore this phone for my son.
SGS2 will only go into download mode, (No Recovery mode no matter what - it freezes at Device name and model number) maintains a freeze at normal boot onto logo screen.
Bought new battery and new data sync cable.
Kies wont even install, moved to another PC. Kies installed but wont recognise Device, updated all drivers, removed driver reinstalled drivers dozens of times no luck. Please don't make me go back to Kies……

This is the most successful attempt of 20 attempts to reflash.
Tried Heimdall got stuck at Heindall frontend trying to locate firmware packages?? Gave up.
Is it Bricked or can it be saved? Any help from compassionate experts would result in a significant reduction in hair loss for me. I really don't want to go back to iPhone.
