Hi
sorry for my bad english
a few days ago i did an update via odin.i mean i want to change firmware to another stock rom to test battery life and something else but my mistake is that i used PIT file.that erase every thing and after that S3 freeze at boot logo ,very lagy and restart by itself.
i searched internet and unfourtunately i found my s3 bricked
but now its ok and the solution is ever u used PIT(partition information table)u must flash files that ur s3 need.
=================================================
1-u must use correct version of samsung galaxy s3(i9300) = Odin3 v3.04
2-go to download mode by presing volume down + menu + power and then select wolume up
3-flash pit file with odin .phone will restart and then enter download mode by step 2 again then go to step 4 (this isnt necessary more)
4-if u want flash desired stock rom do this by PDA button
5-if u do step 4 then restart or not flash PARAM.bin by PHONE button via odin
thats the point , param.bin is the solution for s3
its worked for my dead galaxy s3 gt-i9300 and i thought that bricked
=======================
extract files and uses them
i extracted param.bin from a stock korean firmware
hope it will help who search for solution :victory:
Good but Really works ??
hi
i think this can help if use PIT file.i test without using PIT file and no problem happens.
if phone is slow and laggy and restart with no reason i think its good to test this solution.however this file available in boot loader and main firmware file but flash it instead of those can help
when u flash .pit or .param do you need to enable Re-partition on Odin?

hello,I had initially no WIFI, then a few days later brick.
Hopefully boot always correct and I could flash some original ROM.
But doing so the IMEI and other where lost (while files are written in the EFS partition-directory
My 9300 INT (Europe-France) works but limited to Wifi. 4.1.2 version with EMG4 (recent 2013 july) the 9300 date sept 2012
The EFS was probably overriden
I flashed different ROMS and could not have it back, but I did not try to use PIT rebuilding.
I am actually with an EMG4 modem - so I just wonder
Is the param.bin a descriptive file fro PIT ?
If not what kind of PIT file may I use ? is it included in a part of the ROM files ?
If I put the complete rom file in the PIT window of ODIN, will ODIN use only PIT? or will it FLASH the complete ROM + PIT.
SOrry to be new to this, I can understand shell, ADB, busybox, root etc, but the way the flashing is mounting files and partitioopns escapes me.
Thank you in advance if someone can give me a hand.
Regards
PS I had seen almost 100 pages of different methods and no real TUTO when no backup is find (I may have one at some point but on another SD...
So I know no miracle exist, out of specific equipment. , box, ...
Sorry for the 10001 quetion about the same troublewith IEMI/EFS
Help
there is no PIT partition here
i can't understand if i need to flash param or not. if its not needed then why download it ?
i can't connect to wifi and can't use dialer, does above method solve my problem ?

Try to just flash PIT file and unselect Autoreboot and check re-partition in Odin and try again.

Follow the steps I've mentioned in this forum yesterday.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/fix-samsung-s2-booting-root-reset-t3087729
This should fix the issue, and then you can restore back and update your phone or flash custom ROMs.

i'm trying to download from rapidgator from 2 days but i can't, it always breaks!
and it can't be resumed
http://samsung-updates.com/details/23417/Galaxy_S_2/GT-I9100/VOD/I9100XWMS2.html
I have a stucked i9100 too.
If i choose a pit file, and select Re-partition, Odin stucked in SetPartition.
if i not checked, the re-partition, Odin stucked in data.img (3 files) or sbl.bin (1 file)
the same problem
always stuck in: NAND write start!!
help please
note:
when i falsh a recovery (like:CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.tar) it flashed well, but i can't access the recovery!
phone ssn: i9100GSMH
is it necessary to flash any pit file?
pit file should not be necessary, its main purpose is to re-partitionate the device. If you are already happy with your setup you don't need to flash it to update firmware.
Remember to choose the firmware for the right region for you, the link you posted is for VOD Region (United Kingdom Vodafone).
i think the problem is in the region, i've tried many regions but no one worked.
how to know my phone original firmware region?
Edit: phone flashed sccuessfully.
the problem was that the version printed in the phone is I9100, and the real phone's firmware is I9108.

What error message are you getting in the Odin log?
Sounds like it is a hardware problem.
with frimware I9300XXUGMK6_I9300OXXGML1_I9300XXUGMK6 ; i got error on boot.img in all odin version
and in frimware I9300XXDLIH_I9300VDSDLI1_VDS ; i got error on system.img in all odin version
Looks like the rom is too old for the phone. Try flashing the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com.

Depends where it's from. For my btu, mk6 was the last update. Nothing changed after mk6 so you should be able to 'downgrade' from any higher version as they are all 4.3.
E: failed to mount is a recovery issue. Which recovery are you using?. Is your device rooted?.
If your device isn't rooted then you can try flashing the stock recovery image via odin on the pc (hopefully it'll flash provided that the corruption is elsewhere in the nand).
If the stock recovery image won't flash then you have bigger issues and the device is probably hard bricked from hardware failure.
Here is a stock recovery for mk6: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4vTiHTBB629ajRJaWx5QlVFSWs/view?usp=drivesdk
Grab it quick before a mod breaks my balls for it.

Although mk6 may be the latest for some phones, it may not be the latest for the op's phone which is why I suggested flashing the latest stock rom.
Sorry for late answer , no my phone is not rooted , how i can see which recovery im using?

Thats why I said "depends where it's from". You're right but lack the detail..
OP: You can access recovery by holding home and vol+ while tapping the power button.

Hello everyone,
I have a GT-I9060I d/s, with a boot loop.
What I have done so far:
- Try to put rom stock, from sammobile (Spain), always gives Fail when installing system.img -> I tried with 3 cables and Odin versions 3.07, 3.06, 3.10, 3.12 without result
- I have put another recovery, I have made all the possible wipes and I tried to install again rom stock
- I tried to put the PIT "GRANDNEOVE3G.pit" + BL, AP, CP and CSC and nothing.
- I've tried with KIES, with emergency firmware and nothing
- I tried to put as a last resort some custom rom but nothing
I run out of ideas, someone who wants to help me?
thanks people!
