Yes, also different computers, I think that it is a sds

Confirmed the model # in download mode? Using the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com?

Rooting woes

So, I was attempting to root my Sprint Galaxy s3, using the CF-root 6.3 via Odin v1.85. All was going well, then just before the big finale, Odin crashes. Now my firmware is messed up on my new phone. I can get back into Downloading... mode, but if I try to re-flash with cf-root, I get this in Odin:
<ID:0/006> File analysis..
<ID:0/006> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/006> Initialzation..
<ID:0/006> Get PIT for mapping..
<ID:0/006> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/006> recovery.img
<ID:0/006> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/006> cache.img
<ID:0/006>
<ID:0/006> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
And this on the phone:
Unsupport dev_type.
And when I reboot:
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
Is my phone bricked? How can I undo this?
Thanks.
If this is in the wrong section, I apologize.
Did you try root your US sprint s3 with a method for the international s3?
If so then search because someone made that same mistake last night.
In future don't flash anything for the inter national version on your American version.

I seem to have fixed it. Used Odin to install the clockwork mod, and the phone boots up normally now. Close call.

GS3 Hardbricked?

After my phone being fine for around 5 months, It suddenly bricked, and now is stuck in a boot loop. Download mode works, Recovery works, but when i try to flash with odin, I get this:
Code:
<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..
<ID:0/004> boot.img
<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/004> FAIL!
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
<ID:0/004> Removed!!
Recovery is fine, but I cant flash anything either.
Does my phone need repairing? If so can samsung find it's flashed? I was running 4.4.
Thanks in advance
Nand error fail is usually fatal, you can try a rescue firmware:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30087735&postcount=6&nocache=1&z=4402082341257483
But I wouldn't expect miracles. Your flash count/modified in download mode tells Samsung if your warranty is void.

Change your computer or make a format. Trust me, it helps.
You can also try different USB ports, especially if you're using front one instead of back one.

GT-i9300 Intl Soft Bricked Please Help

Hi Devs,
I am stuck in a issue. I installed cm 12.0 (unofficial rom) to my Galaxy s3 GT-i9300 everything was working fine but suddenly it keeps on crashing randomly one day while calling my phone froze. I restarted the phone it stucked on SAMSUNG BOOT SCREEN.
I can go into download mode and recovery mode, currently using PhilzTouch 6 on recovery.
Things I have tried already.
Wiped Cache Partition
Wiped Data/Factory Reset
when i try to wipe cache or factory reset i get errors
E: can't mount /data or Formatting /sdcard/.android_secure
For some reason my phones internal memory is on the read only mode i tried to flash the stock rom as well so far no luck.
I tried 4 different stock roms none of them work they all stopped on nand write or setup connection
I followed the instruction below because thats what exactly happened to my phone but no luck when ever i try to load boot files into PDA it keeps failing.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840030
please guys i am tired and exhausted trying all different stuff guide me. I even tried PIT Files noting work. Thanks in advance
Try going back to stock/factory.
Boot in download mode (vol down+home+power).
Use Odin to flash stock recovery and firmware.
Once you are able to boot perfectly into touchwiz, can narrow down your points of failure and try again or try another ROM

Hi Blue,
Thanks for reply , so you meant to say i replace philztouch with stock recovery.
Correct me if i am wrong.
Replace philz with stock recovery and replace your rom with touchwiz. Figure out where you went wrong and then flash your custom rom again or flash a different custom rom.
Try flashing another recovery. Worked for me once
Thanks for Help
Can you send me link for GT-i9300 International Stock Recovery so i am installing exact thing it would be great help from you guys and i would really appreciate it.

saqyee, you placed the stock recovery file in the PDA section right? DO NOT TOUCH THE PIT SECTION.

Nand write fail usually means emmc corrupt/damaged you could try the rescue firmware but this looks like hardware failure.

Sboot.bin is bootloader. You are flashing a firmware with incorrect bootloader or old bootloader should i say.
Is your phone network locked?

No problem mate. If you are flashing a custom rom you need to root first and flash twrp. If you need help let me know mate

If you have sboot.bin fail this happens when you try to downgrade. Just flash stock firmware through odin. Use odin v3.10.6. Of it sticks on Samsung logo it's normal can take up to 20 minutes for first boot

Crisscross development has stopped. I recommend CarHD rom it is the best by far.
Make sure your flashing the roms through twrp
