Help GT-I9300 white startup screen - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

All of a sudden when i booted up my galaxy s3 it said that there was no /system and didn't boot up. So I went to recovery and made a factory reset, still nothing. After that I tried to flash stock firmware via odin, but when it was finishing it said It had failed. Now a white screen appears when I turn it on and It can't boot up. I tried flashing it again but it says there's no PIT file. But it enters download mode. Here are some photos:

[Q] Vibrant Passes Boot Screen, Then all black

Hello!
I'm new here, love the forums. However, I may have bricked my device and the threads I have read so far (I've read a lot of them), aren't helping.
I flashed (via ODIN) the stock JID and PIT files according to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=734475. The flash was successful however when I go through the boot Cycle, I get the 'Vibrant' boot screen, then the T-Mobile splash, and finally the Galaxy S screen with the pulsating S.
However, after this the phone goes black, and I only have the four buttons lit up. They do respond to touch.
Please help with this situation. Thanks in advance!
Hey Swaadg,
I had this happen when I first got my vibrant. Try Odin again and if it fails, redownload it and try again. If that fails, try downloading Odin from a different source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821625. If that still fails, check out this program: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=954509 Good luck!
As long as you can get into download mode, there is hope.
If you flash a good JFD image with a good Odin and it still doesn't work, that's a weird one.
You might fix what you've got by getting into recovery mode and doing a factory reset.
So I flashed the T959UVJFD.tar via ODIN3 v1.70. Now I get the Vibrant (Samsung Boot Screen), followed by the T-Mobile splash, followed by the Galaxy S pulsating screen.
Then it goes black. The four LED buttons on the bottom do however respond to touch. I just see a black screen.
One irregularity during the flash is that it fails to wipe the data during the reboot after flash.
Are you checking any extra options in Odin, or just what's checked by default?
I would recommend flashing with only auto reboot and F. reset time checked.
See the attachment showing how I flash with Odin.
Thanks for all your help!
I have sucessfully booted this helped for anyone with the issue in the future:

[Help]Going back to stock fail...

Hello,
Just now I tried flashing stock rom (I9100XWLSD) with odin, and everyhting goes just fine, odin says everything is ok. After the flash, phone restarts and it goes to the point where samsung logo appears and then nothing. I can access download mode. Well I waited 10mins and didn't go any further than the samsung boot screen (the one with glowing samsung logo, not the preboot "samsung galaxy s2" screen).
I was on CM10.1 19-2-2013 nightly. I tried second time flashing with odin and now I wont go even to the samsung screen. Any suggestions?
Nevermind, flashed recovery, wiped everything and reflash, success....
Sry for rushing to post help theard

[Q] Bricked P7510 won't boot after stock reinstall

Hello,
My galaxy tab 10.1 P7510 is dead.
I used ODIN to put stock 4.0.4 (P7510UELPL) on it.
Everything goes well and I get green PASS! icon.
Now my system reboots to the Battery logo. but stays stuck here.
I can hold power button/volume-down to go back to download mode or recovery mode. I did factory reset and wiped cache.
Still it goes to battery logo after reboot.
Is my battery dead or my whole tablet?
Thanks for any help

Reflash via odin, as long as you can get in recovery/download you're safe

I tried that several times with 4.0.4 USA. But no luck.
I am now downloading another region to see if it was the file that was the problem. Although it flashed ok.

OK. I tried several pc's win7 32 and 64-bit. No luck
several versions of ODIN. Noluck
I can boot in download mode. I restored several different versions of p7510 firmware.
Odin says everything is ok. "pass"
But once I reboot I get the samsung logo and immediately afterwards the 2inch battery logo in the middle of the screen and nothing else.
I can press the power button and go back to recovery/download mode but same error.
If I reboot and go to recovery and wipe data and reset it boot up to the logo with padlock icon on the bottom and nothing else.
Anyone seen this problem?
Same but no recovery
I have the same problem (stuck at boot screen). I can get to Odin mode but can't boot into recovery. When I choose it from the download menu instead of Odin mode, the tab just goes blank. I even used Odin to flash anew Recovery (CWM). No luck. Any ideas?

Bootloop Hell, please, please help!

I have a Tmobile GS6 Edge,My problem is this I was restoring a TWRP backup, coming from [ROM][5.1.1][OF8] OZOP EDGE. I used this Backup numerous times. But the last restore sent me into bootloop. I'm on OF8 but I ran an OF6 tar file through odin (it's the only one I can get to pass and run successfully). Heres what happened I connected my phone to computer, odin recognized it. hit start. ran successfully. rebooted, android guy came up briefly and said installing system update, then it changed to "Erasing..." then it rebooted again. Now I'm stuck in bootloop. I can boot to recovery and it says installing system update each time I boot to recovery, but selecting reboot system there shows a no command error. I force the phone to power off... power on again to bootloops.
smart switch didn't recognize the phone for a reset so I decided to go with the ODIN method and now i'm lost. I read to reboot to recovery, factory reset in recovery, power down option in recovery but I'm still in bootloop Hell. Is there a pit file I can run? Anything? Please help.
Just flashed G925TUVU3DOI1 with ODIN, same issue, wont boot past Samsung logo and now I am stuck with OI1 firmware. It will not allow me to downgrade to OF8 or OF6 for example.
Update I have created and flashed successfully my own bootloader.img.tar file with Modem.img.tar.file as suggested. And still stuck at Samsung logo. Any ideas?
Anything in this?
