Accidentally Nand Erase All I9300 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I accidentally ticked nand erase all my Galaxy S3 heeellppp I have JIG and my Hardware Buttons are broken except my home and lock button

I have never used the "erase all" option but the jig it should put the phone into download mode where you can try flashing a stock ROM. You may need a pit file though.

Can you upload one? And some procedures? Thanks!

There are procedures in the general thread about flashing with Odin.
I don't have the i9300 so I don't have access to a pit file.

[Q] S3 dead, stock recovery with odin

Hi, my s3 is dead, I need not appear in system status CUSTOM, but I lose the warranty. As an officer I can change it? not allow me to install a stock rom because it gives me the error that there is no pit partition. I can get into download mode. I searched the forum but have not found it. Try putting a stock recovery as solutions, but can not find it to flash it with odin. Greetings and thanks.

[Q] Is this what's known as "bricked"?

A while ago my phone started to restart itself for no good reason. Then it got worse and it starts randomly resetting itself (factory reset). To solve this issue I tried to do a manual factory reset myself, and the problem persisted.
I can deal with these random restarts, but then one day as it restarts it got stuck at the "Samsung Galaxy S3" screen. I tried to do another factory reset in CWM and clear the cache, but it says "E:\cache\...." isn't mounted. As I investigate further it seems the reason that it can't boot might be because the memory is not mounted I guess?
I can boot into Download mode and CWM perfectly fine, so I decided to try to flash the Stock Recovery and Stock ROM through Odin. Connection between Odin and the phone was set up fine, but then it stopped at this error message "Complete(Write) operation failed." Flashing either stock rom and recovery yields the same error . It simply can't write to the memory it seems.
Now I'm stuck at this start screen. I've heard flashing a PIT file might be able to fix it, but I have no idea what that is.
Is the phone bricked? How do I fix this? Should I use the Rescue Firmware in this post? It would be great if anyone can help me since I have been asking for help on other forums but got absolutely no response...

If you can boot to download mode you can try to use the rescue firmware. No, it isn't bricked because it still works
Thanks for the response! I'm going to try the rescue firmware, but I see that it says "KOR" on the file name. Is that referring to "Korea"? My phone isn't bought in Korea does that matter? Also what's the CSC thing it's talking about?
Your description matches emmc corruption/failure, so it is a software brick.
Follow the guide for the rescue firmware it doesn't matter about the country or CSC, but make sure you include the pit file.
If that fails to flash then it's time for a new phone.

I just downloaded the zip file, but it seems like it doesn't have a pit file inside. So where can I get that file? Thanks again.

There are two versions in the rescue firmware page 4.1.2 and 4.3 the pit file is in the 4.1.2 version and can be used on both.
Now I tried to flash them with Odin 3.07, it doesn't fail nor success. Instead it got stuck at "Get PIT for mapping.." I read that this might be a driver problem, but I've reinstalled my drivers, and I even tried all the usb ports on my computer. I've terminated Kies' process, but it's still not working!
What should I do to get Odin to write onto the device???

It won't write for a reason, the emmc chip is damaged.

GT-I9100 Flash with Odin stuck at .img file. NAND Erase?

Hi everyone!
If I would like to make a NAND Erase on my phone, will it remove the Download mode and recovery mode from the memory, or not? I think I made something wrong when I tried to repartition the phone and now it doesn't work fine. May it be a good solution? Thanks!
Your best bet would be to simultaneously flash the correct pit file and a firmware and start again.

Flash failure

Hi,
I recently tried installing a new rom on my Samsung Galaxy SII i9100 with Lineage 14.1. The installing failed as there was a problem with some signature I didn't have.
I have since then tried flashing CWM recovery, multiple different stock roms via Odin, samsung kies firmware upgrade, factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache yet nothing is working.
When I flash with Odin, everything flashes fine but after, when I try switching my phone on, the phone gets stuck in a bootloop. I can access recovery and download mode fine but cannot load my phone.
Please help as this is my main phone.:crying:

Hi again. After I finished flashing via Odin, the phone rebooted into the screenshot below. I didn't know where to type the code so I rebooted system and the phone returned into a bootloop. Any ideas?
Did you use the pit file u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit from the archive for Odin?
Do it again in Odin with the pit file u1_02_20110310_emmc_EXT4.pit
Put everything in Odin like on the screenshot!

Softbrick - how to find CSC

Hello guys
Unfortunalely i managed to soft brick my s9 Plus.
I changed the CSC when it was working but don't remember to what.
I can boot into download mode however when i try to reflash via odin it says Fail.
I am guessing its because of the incorrect CSC file i am using
Does anyone know how to find CSC of a softbricked phone.
Attached is the screenshot from download mode. Hope it helps.

If you flashed another CSC with Odin, you may have to do a fatory reset / wipe data in recovery mode.
That is why I always use the "Home_CSC" file as CSC in Odin - to prevent this wiping.
For stock firmware files, I am using Frija: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-frija-samsung-firmware-downloader-checker.3910594/
