Urgent Help Samsung S3 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had installed : cm-13.0-20161021-NIGHTLY-i9300.zip on my phone but everything seems to have been wiped by itself.
Now there is a new build i put on my SD card and went to recovery using TWRP and cant seem to load any zip files on the SD. it shows 0 files on the SD and internal storage as well which is strange.
In recovery shows 0MB on Internal storage,
0 MB on SDCARD
And also says No OS is Installed
Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300)
Any help please. I urgently need my phone back on.

Hi i cant find a stock rom for my phone.
Samsung S3 and for United Kingdom.
Will also need PIT file etc. Any Help

---

Did you check sammobile.com?
Pit file would be needed if Odin cannot read the partition information from the phone itself during the flash process.

Hmm, confirm the phone number in download mode?
The boot.img failure could mean that you need to use a different USB cable, USB port, of the firmware is not for the phone.

---

Flash this Firmware Included all files(Pit,bootloader,pda,cp,csc)

Will try this stock rom thanks and let you know. Are there any specific settings i should put in ODin?

---

I meant phone model number. If model number matched the phone and the boot IMG is fine, not sure why Odin fails.

I have Just tried your firmware @Sureshtuty that you suggested again got a FAIL

EMMC Brick bug. Sorry. It's dead. OS version doesn't matter. Get a new phone or change EMMC.

It happens. It has happened and will continue to happen to the S3 units with eMMC chips from the faulty lot. I too had a near death experience but managed to avoid it. Had someone in my family who owns a service shop (i had a backup of my data before) replace my eMMC with a "clean" one. I think in 2013, late to the party, but the important fact is that I narrowly avoided all the headaches.
