Alright, I'm hoping I can get some quick useful feedback on this. Posting this here in the Hercules Forum because of device similarities. I'm currently on AOKP Official Milestone 6, and every time I reboot it reverts me settings I had on August 28th. I've been going thru this all day long, Google searching, scanning forums for my device and the T989.
I've attempted Odin flashes 13 times today to go back to Stock Gb and Stock Ics, the flashes show successful, yet AOKP boots right back up. Recovery does nothing to wipe, currently on Clockworkmod Touch Recovery.
Formatting all caches and partitions, Dalvik wipes all 5x each do nothing, even flashing something after this does nothing. I can't even reset AOKP, it takes me right back to the same condition from August 28th, same theme, apps, etc, all there. I've even formatted both emmc and sdcard, nothing. Whatever I do gets overwritten to the previous condition.
Can someone please help me out with this. I'm not even sure what to classify an issue like this as.

Thanks for the quick reply. I've tried Darkside Super Wipe as well as the Cache Wipe, it hangs on "Aligning Disks". I'll give TWRP a go, couldn't flash over the touch cwm with a non touch with odin

Another no go. Vincom over in the Skyrocket forums schooled me on what's going on. Its a failure to write to the nand. He was trying to help another guy out with the same situation, and nothing worked for him either. I'm on my second Skyrocket, my luck with 3's hasn't ever been so good. I'm within my 30 days still, if I can brick it, I may be able to get a new phone.
Thanks for all your help tho man, really appreciate it

I am having the same issue right now with my t989. How did you end up bricking your phone in order to send it in for a new one? I have tried just about everything to brick mine but have had no luck because nothing will install properly.
Open ROM manager and flash a recovery not for a galaxy and you'll brick it

I searching for the best root method, for an ATT Galaxy S3. The toolkit does not work on the latest update. And who wants to screw around with ADB. Is there another method similar to SuperOneClick that will root and install CWM and superuser at the same time.
CRzy
Toolkit is the easiest way. If not working try Odin. And if you search a little there is plenty of thread about this subject...
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Ok
I tried the toolkit, but apparently it doesn't work with the latest update. I have also tried to download a root injected rom. That didnt work either.

I am giving it up, and taking it to ATT. Worst case scenario, is I will just have to get a new phone. Could be worse, at least I am eleigible for an upgrade. Thanks everyone for your help
How getting a new phone will help you? You just need to go back before the last update

Funny. I had bought an external battery pack from DealExtreme which came with a micro USB cable that would put my phone straight into download mode. Go figure.

I tried to backup my data apps by following this Samsung galaxy S3 SnapDragon toolkit. But I was stupid enough to not read the Warning about it doesn't work with Jelly Bean 4.1.1 and how unfortunate I do have Jelly Bean 4.1.1 on my phone. So now my phone reboot constantly with Samsung logo and a black screen with LED lighted up.
I can boot into recovery mode. I did try your typical Wipe process but the phone is still reboot in the same result as mentioned. I am planning on trying to recovery it with Odin. So anyone have advices on what happened and is it even possible to fix it?
