Bootloop - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everybody. So here's what happened. I had installed CM13 installed on my SIII (i9300). Its battery died and when I turned it on it gave me an encryption had failed error, i pressed the reset phone button and it brought me into TWRP. I couldn't factory reset so I decided to reinstall CM13. I did that, first it gave me a failed to mount /data error. I wiped it completely and after installing CM13 it gave me failed to mount storage error. It then wouldn't turn on and was stuck on "Galaxy SIII" boot screen (not cm animation). I formatted data, reinstalled CM, it made it till the boot animation screen not past that. I installed Ressurrection Remix and it does the same, stuck on the boot animation. It does boot normally when I restore the nandroid backup I made but I cant install any custom rom. Any help?

But that's the way.

Alright, but why cant I flash any other rom even after restoring the backup I made?

@Sarmad Ishtiaq: because anything in your system is messed up, maybe in your backupped state already.

That's peculiar. I restored the backup once and was still able to flash another rom after it.
I'll just flash the stock rom when I get home.

The funny thing is that Im still on my NANDROID BACKUP! My settings and apps are there. It didn't flash the stock rom. ODIN did say 'pass'. Wtf is going on?

Boot into recovery (must be stock one now) and exec factory reset.

Bootloop samsung after full wype

Hi everyone, I have a problem with my S3, this afternoon I flash the rom from xda Lost 4.2.1 after flash I reinstalled all my app, and I discovered that the root of gsm had chaner: sdcard / 0 / ... whereas before there was no 0!
I wanted after that, completely delete all the files for all gsm format, with the recovery Philz I made all wypes and also erases all the mounts and storage section.
After that I reinstall version 4.1.2 Omega but as soon as I reboot it remains locked in the bootloop samsung. I re Wyper and reinstall ca, ca redone always bootloop ... I try to install the same ... but Wanam
So I dl the new firmware and flash via Odin MB5 and reboot but still block for hours on the samsung boot? If anyone can help me thank you!
I reflash the recovery philz and when I want to install a rom: Selection: Choose zip from sdcard does not work! (E: Can not mount / sdcard /)
I put a rom on the sd ext and still bootloop after installing samsung ca ...
Sorry for my english this is a translation
When you flash with Odin, wait at least 10 minutes for it to boot up, if it still doesn't boot up, pull battery, re-insert, boot to recovery and perform a factor reset
ok i test...

[Q] Firmware upgrade encountered an issue

Hi all,
I have a Samsung galaxy S3 GT-I9300. 2 days ago it crashed and won't boot anymore. The reason was can't mount /cache, can't mount system ... on recovery mode. I tried only the wipe cache option and it did nothing.
I started looking at the forum to understand how to fix it. I deciced first to make a backup of my data if possible so I downloaded Odin v3.07 and philz_touch_6.07.9-i9300.tar.md5. I read in another thread that we can manage to copy data from the phone using philz tools.
The problem here is that flashing philz tools with Odin fails all the time. Now I can only access the download mode. At boot, I have a "Firmware upgrade encountered an Issue..." I tried with Kies recovery but it failed too.
In my sdcard, I have no folder clockwordmode ! In download mode
PRODUCT NAME : GT-I9300
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD : Yes (3)
CURRENT BINARY : Custom
SYSTEM STATUS : Ofiicial
I am bit lost as there seem to be a lot of options in other threads. I don'y know where to start or what to do ? is it the PIT files to restore ? the firmware, the kernel ? the whole OS ?
Many thanks
Don't use pit file. pit is Last resort!!!! Get stock firmware from sammobile.com and flash it through Odin. Forget kies. Read about Odin before flashing.
You'll need to flash with a *.pit file, and the ROM downloaded from sammobile in order to restore your device. Use the *.pit file as the absolute last option to restore your phone. It will repartition your phone, and any power loss of either the machine you are flashing from, or your phone will render it a permanent brick.
Thank you
I am downloading the latest firmware from sammobile (1.1 GB) and Odin 3.09. There are specific instructions for Odin on sammobile website so I don't think i'm goint to mess it up. I will let you know if it did work for me.
I tried to flash the image from sammobile but it failed. There is no log I can read to understand why
Here is the name of image I downloaded I9300XXUGML2_I9300FTMGML2_I9300BVUGML1_HOME.tar
Concerning Odin, its the 3.09 GS3 by l0gan

Shall I try with an older image (this one is the latest) ? or retry by messing the PIT ?
Nand write fail = motherboard replacement.
Keep trying to flash and don't give up but please leave pit till the end. Yes try three part recovery firmware and older firmware "not ics" SDS on ics firmware and you don't want that. But at the end of the day nand write fail means hardware failure.

However, I still have the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" at boot I removed the phone when I saw the message Removed in Odin. I am not sure whether it didn't let the process finish well or I did right. Any ideas or suggestions ?
I succeeded to reinstall the latest firmware and I got back the samsung logo at boot. However It still doesn't go any further and no recovery mode ... Is there a way to check the status of the system ?
Omg its alive!! Odin said pass! Just keep flashing that firmware till you get recovery and then factory reset.
Try the rescue firmware in general thread, follow the instructions exactly.

Hello
An update of my case. After struggling 2 days with NAND write fail and trying lots of firmwares... I succeeded to install CMW recovery tool. From that, I installed Cyanogenmod 10.0.2. I struggled to make it boot too as it looped on cyanogen logo many times.
Now I must confess that I am afraid of rebooting the phone as I thought it was dead :angel:
Hope it helps someone else :highfive:
Great feed back for others. and go's to show never give up flashing with Odin. Odin is a pain in the ....
Congrats :thumbup:

[Q] Got error E: failed to mount /efs from the blue! No upgrade or downgrade, etc!

Hello everyone.
Ok so I read a lot about the issue, solutions, and how this usually happens.
It's just I don't know how I got this. Was just using my phone like everytime and ran out of juice. So I recharged it, turned it on and got this error.
Just as good as it could be, I have no EFS folder backup at this moment.
Is there any way I can:
1) backup EFS at this point
2) run the steps to restore the system with generic EFS
3) restore EFS
Any other ideas on how could I mount the EFS that stills there?
Thanks in advance.
If not, then I guess I will send it to somente with a Samsung Tool-BOX to restore system and IMEI after creating a new EFS.
First flash a full stock rom, factory reset in recovery before first boot. This might enable your efs to be read again.
Your problem happened due to instant shutdown, which corrupted one or more partitions. Don't ever let the battery get near zero, the emmc chip is very easily broken.
If stock firmware fails then pay for a repair, make sure it fully works on 4.3 before you pay.

no help for me?
:crying:
Are you disconnecting the phone or waiting for it to completely finish? Maybe clean out the charge port?
I am not by any means able to correct the issue, but i've never seen a successful odin operation where the device is removed and then completed.
Good news is that it can still go into download mode. So it should not be too difficult to correct. I am assuming you're using latest Odin with the original usb cable and have tried with different ports.
Sometimes it may need a slightly older version of odin to work. You may even have to download the firmware again. Or take it to where you bought it...
But... DO NOT LAUNCH IT!

Are you disconnecting the phone or waiting for it to completely finish? Maybe clean out the charge port?
I am not by any means able to correct the issue, but i've never seen a successful odin operation where the device is removed and then completed.
Good news is that it can still go into download mode. So it should not be too difficult to correct. I am assuming you're using latest Odin with the original usb cable and have tried with different ports.
Sometimes it may need a slightly older version of odin to work. You may even have to download the firmware again. Or take it to where you bought it...
But... DO NOT LAUNCH IT!

I disconnecting the phone after Odin> PASS (disconnecting usb)
The usb port is clean (spray contact)
I don't use other port usb and other cable usb, because the Odin procedure it is successful (PASS)
After PASS I disconnect usb, the Phone rebot - it appears android robot- erasing- logo edge -logo samsung,
but nothing done (I waited a long time)
Odin is 3.13.1 (I believe latest version), I have not tried other old versions because the procedure is Ok (Pass)
I worked on this cell phone I believe 30 hours...
I'm a stubborn girl, I do not accept not to recover the phone..
I do not launch it, but the temptation is there
thanks for help
:good:

I'm trying with last firmware for edge (italy- ITV-nogaut7)
it was the first one I tried. and now is impossible using old firmware, cs.bin file no Pass in Odin...
Pit file i read is not necessary for stock firmware, but yesterday I also tried with Pit file (Zerolte eur open hidden60M)
the Odin procedure Pass, but after the phone not installing system ( but maybe I did not reset factory and cache..)
when it is in bootloop, enter in recovery is not easy, and when I go into recovery..I have to be quick to select otherwise the phone hangs...(even with twrp sometimes it crashes)
I do not understand if it's because the phone bootloop, or is the problem hardware (memory flash)
thank s
:victory:
