hey guys,
I don't have a recovery mode (getting white screen instead). only download mode.
I downloaded the correct firmware and tried install and it failed (in system.img) and requested a PIT file.
I downloaded the PIT file and it got failed again.. I tried to install this twrp thing and still not good.
This is what I get when I try to install pit + twrp (auto reboot, re-partition and f. reset time are checked):

Any idea?
Thank you guys!
Have you tried different cables, are you using a USB port on the motherboard?.
The drivers work because it sees the phone in odin.
Are you loading the stock firmware AND the pit file at the same time?.
If you can answer yes to all of those then it's a bin job.
I don't recommend trying to flash a pit and TWRP at the same time. I only recommend using a pit file, when necessary, with stock firmware.

Yes, tried a different cable.
Yes, I used a USB port on the motherboard
Yes it's a stock, and tried separately and didn't work.
Damn

I tried to use only the pit but all i get is that error. It didn't matter if I used a TWRP / stock firmware.
Don't flash using only the pit file.
Flash twrp or stock ROM without pit.
If flashing the stock firmware on its own fails or it says about a pit partition in odin then load both the pit file and the stock firmware at the same time. If it fails to flash them you can safely assume the phone has a corrupt nand and is dead.
You can also try flashing older versions of the recovery, twrp or cwmr. The last official cwmr was the most stable for me and helped me recover from a f*ked twrp that caused the e:failed to mount errors.
If it can take a flash of any type it might be recoverable. Just because it fails a flash doesn't mean its dead dead, just borked beyond the usual capability of the average Joe bloggs..
I would recommend, just for the fact it can't get any worse than what it already is, find the stock firmware in separate files along with the last official cwmr and flash them one by one and when you get the fail errors you'll know exactly what part of the nand is faulty. Basically just mess with it until you kill it. If it jumps into life in the meanwhile then you got lucky and should put a ticket on the lottery!.
Hope this helps inspire a bit of confidence!.

I don't know where I failed. I got into download mode, selected the tar for the JL5 T-Mobile leak, and now I'm bricked.
Sorry to be another idiot, but I could really use some help? I just got my vibrant today.
Here's the error:

Just to add more info...
I'm coming from stock and this is my first flash via ODIN. All I wanted was to go to Froyo via the leaked JL5 build.
Just to clarify, do I select the .tar via PDA or Phone?
I can get back into Download Mode, no problem. I just can't get ODIN to flash the .tar of the JL5 leak. What have I done wrong?
I tried restarting the computer, etc.
Just kept trying and it eventually worked.
Sorry for the panic.
So can you boot up at all or only into download mode
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
No, I could only boot into download mode. I just kept restarting and reconnecting, and eventually, it worked. No problems.
I had the drivers installed, so ODIN recognized the COM right away. It just failed on the first flash, and since it was my first day with the new phone (and my wife was sitting next to me) I started to panic a bit.
OK If it is failing and you can still reboot into the old rom?
It really looks like a bad download. Delete the JL5 and download again
IF you can boot ok to 2.1, then load the tar file in PDA no pit file necessary, and do not check repartition
If you cannot boot up anymore. Look in development or in the bible the shipping rom
Odin the shipping rom, load the pit file, load the tar in PDA and check repartition.
After that is fine and boots, you can try with the new downloaded jl5
Hi, after trying out some custom roms like CM9-10 and Omega my phone suddenly started rebooting. It lets me enter the PIN and starts up but after a qouple of seconds it reboots again.
The wierd part is that it autostarts after I insert the battery, but I can enter both CWM and Download mode.
I have tried enter CWM and do a wipe but phone reboots in the middle of the process, same goes when trying to flash CM9 or any other rom I have on the internal SD.
I have also tried following a Swedish guide to restore it to stock using Odin, but after adding the PDA and pressing start I get a Fail in Odin to, something about NAND write fails.
Does anyone have a solution for me? Should I tick re-partition or do something other in Odin?
I would suggest boot into recovery. Wipe Dalvik cache. Flash Rom. Wipe both caches. reboot.

Well I think so, it was sold in Sweden.
The problem is that it reboots doing most of the actions in CWM, I think I have managed to wipe Dalvik but as soon as I try to install a rom it just reboots.
I also tried rooting again using Odin 1.85 but it fails with that version too.

If all else fails get yourself a S3 USB Jig. I bought one, funnily enough it arrived today from Hong Kong and it only cost something like 2,50€ delivered free. Then install a stock rom.

If your Nand is corrupt i dont think you can get out of it......99 percent of the time if you can get into download mode your good. but if you having Nand Write issues, i dont know if there is a coming back from that.
hope thats not the case and another member can shed some better light on the subject.
Nand. See posts regarding. PIT today.

Could you post a link to that thread? I found this one and have tried flashing some of the PIT-files but it does not work. Or should I flash some other files at the same time?
Ok, following one guide witch seams to fix my problem is that I need a 3-part firmware. Every Firmware I have downloaded contains:
boot, cache, hidden, modem, recovery, system -if I extract them one extra time. Is that right? Where should I load them in odin in that case? If not could anyone direct me to a download-page for 3-part firmwares? (I downloaded the last one from samfirmware.com)
It is very strange that the core functions kind of work as I can boot normaly into the system and even run an app if I am fast, then reboot.
Downloadmode works untill I try to flash something.
CWM works until I try to do a Wipe or flash a rom, I can wipe dalvik and some other stuff, but not cache, data and some other. I noticed that You could partition sdcard from CWM should I try that? and if so what should i select in the next screen about partition size?
Hey guys
Could need some quick assistanse getting CWM running.
I decided to get Omni KK running on my SGS2 i9100 to see if i can get a bit of fresh feeling to the old thingy.
I downloaded:
philz_touch_6.07.9-i9100.tar.md5
Boot the Phone into Download Mode.
Start Odin
Add the tar.md5 file to the PDA.
auto reboot and f.reset time is checked just as Philz thread says.

Odin seems to fail to flash the file and i seriusly got no clue what the issue could be.
The phone is rooted, runs busybox, i did the EFS backup through ADB. So everything seems to be working fine except this part.
And unfortantly i cant install the zip file through Android 3e recovery and twrp from app-store says that the SGS2 is not supported.
Seriusly need a quick fix for this lil n00b issue i cant figure out.
Why not Zip FIle?

Why cant you install through Zip File??
Search for the file on d-h.st and install it!!
When trying to install the zip it gives an sideload error 7.
Also it says the file is for Gt-i9100, i9100, i9100g etc, you model is .
Just a "." Not my actual modelnumber which indeed is i9100.
Im running latest stock btw, if thats the issue here.
The url u mentioned.. anyone able to find the correct cwm neesws if i've chosen the wrong one ?

First of all READ. As everybody is saying Ok first question, when You go download mode can you see model name - 9300GT ? If so that means everygthing is solveable.
Next you have messed something and You need to step by step check it. If You want to still work on CM11 you need to flash CF-Root-SGS3-v6.4 to make sure that on the level of recovery everything is ok.

Than try to flash again Your ROM. We will see where this will bring You.
Thx for reply. So i can see model name in download mode GT-9300 and as you said i try to flash that kernel...

When I used to be having such problem I was trying to chaoticlly flash everything. Now I can say that this was stupid. Every sytuation is diffrent but some are simmiliar.
Try this topic at least You will be having stock rom with fully func. S3 If it helps you than you will go with Custom ROM otherwise>>> Root and than ROM.

Good days to everyone!
I've got a situation with my GT-N7100. It doesn't seem to get past the first logo during boot-up, ever.
I've tried the newest MD5 version for that model. "N7100UBUEND1_N7100TCEEND1_N7100UBUEND1_HOME.tar.m d5"
Used the PIT file to Re-Partition and several versions of Odin.
With the PIT file, only version V3.07 hangs at, "Get PIT for mapping..", all other versions seem to fail.
Pit File used: Q1_20110914_16GB.pit
Without the file I get: (Using the tar.md5 packet with V3.07 Odin)
<ID:0/004> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/003> Re-Partition operation failed.
The phone will not go into recovery mode, the only thing I can get it to do is enter download mode.
How this started? Holding the phone, looking at it. It reset itself and never came back.
I disabled my Anti-Virus... Not sure what else to try. Thank you very much in advance!
***UPDATE*** (I was able to enter recovery mode but it seems to fail to mount anything.)
***UPDATE*** (At wits end, not sure what else to try. I'm thinking the NAND has become corrupt and or unrecoverable. Or unless there was a way to, similar to PC's, do a chkdsk repair. At this time i'm downloading the toolkit and attempt anything through ADB, I feel there is nothing more I could do to Un-Brick the phone. I read about Soft/hard Brick, the phone seems to be Soft Bricked but nothing is allowing me to repair/recover through any download method. Booting into recovery fails to mount everything [as seen in pics].)

I'd try to install a custom recovery and use that to install new software to see if you can get booted. If the custom recovery can't mount anything, then that might tell us more about what's going on.

Thanks for your response! I am not sure where to find a custom recovery or how I would apply that to the phone. Debugging isnt enabled and I cannot enable it as its stuck in boot. Over half of the features wont work in ADB mode, due to debugging not enabled.

Just have to get to Download Mode and use Odin to install the custom recovery. Has nothing to do with USB Debugging.

Sounds like you might have messed it up from flashing that older Pit file, which might have been Gingerbread or early ICS, being that it's from 2011...
You realize that there is a whole sub forum here devoted to your phone, right? It seems like you haven't tried to do much research here.
