Install a -as close to stock as possible- ROM and start over again?

That's not good bro. But if you can get back to dl mode you should be good and start over. Remember to wipe data after the completion . It will say pass when finished I believe. I've been using mobile Odin too long. Lol

He failed trying to root. So yes he needs stock firmware but I figured rooted was the prefrence. The addition of superuser isnt going to make a difference. Also if he failed to get root then he most likely has a stock recovery which makes what you linked essentially worthless. If he wants it unrooted my link covers that as well. Trust me on this.
Ok, but he cant install a rooted stock rom if hes not rooted?
Sent from my PG06100 using xda premium
Yes he can. Using Odin which is what I linked. It's an Odin one click. Which will unbrick and add root simultaneously. Do you actually own a Samsung?

Take out your battery, leave it out for 30 seconds, then with it still out, go to download mode and odin. If that doesn't work try a different cable and/or usb port.

Follow Z's advice and go into download mode with no battery. The usb cable will power the phone. Then Odin from there.

Try using Odin to go back to full stock if you can get into download mode. I think that's your only hope
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
I think only mobile odin might be able to help you as you cannot see the device n your computer. If you can get the APK for mobile odin which can be found on XDA, put it on you sd card an install, then get an stock odin Rom and run it from your phone.
Can you also edit your title of this thread, it is pretty deceiving...
Hopefully this method works for you.
Yes I agree quite a few people have done this and lets not have anyone else get themselves caught up like you did. Please change the title and edit out your first post stating what happened to you... Good Luck
You're lucky it even booted and that it is not completely FUBARed. Since you can't connect to odin, as stated, try mobile ODIN.

i hear that the bluetooth is the only radio that works. so. get the mobile odin apk, bluetooth transfer that over and hopefully you have a ODIN rom on there already cuz, frankly, it will be an insane pain in the ass to transfer one over bluetooth.
I guess a kernel/recovery would be easier and get your usb connected...
good luck.

Just to add more salt to the OP's wound: lulz.
Listen to the guys who are telling you to flash back through mobile ODIN, that's probably the only way you're going to get back to a normal working state on your phone.
IMO there are two hurdles with Mobile ODIN:
1) I believe it requires root, which you wouldn't have after flashing the stock Intl software
2) If this phone isn't being recognized even when it can be booted to ODIN D/L mode, then the USB support in the bootloader is already messed up. I don't believe Mobile ODIN can flash the bootloader
Hopefully I'm wrong and you can get it working.
Flash a kernel with clockwork on mobile odin... And then flash everything u need

Sorry to be the person with the worst news that you really dont want to hear but
the phone is toast......there is only one option that can help you .....JTAG this is a service that fixes this for 50 bucks they will reflash the system back to it and get it working again mobile odin wont work because when you flashed the rom it took out the root so mobile wont work only way is 1 jtag service or if your lucky like i was send it back(within warranty period) and say it was a bad flash of an ota update that came through .......hope this helps but i have did this and everything you could think is not gonna work only what i just told you trust me it pissed me off so bad that i didn't read the post before i flashed it
Really sorry to hear.
This could be why manufacturers want to lock the bootloader so this doesn't happen.
You wouldn't think someone who would attempt this would be this foolish...
DO NOT FLASH THIS IF YOU HAVE UPDATED TO MK3 (4.3)!!!! IT WILL CAUSE A HARD BRICK!!!
If you are not sure what this means, boot to download mode. If it says "Knox warranty void" or 'Warranty bit" as pictured below then leave this page. This will not work for you.

I'll try to keep this simple.
So here it goes, short but sweet...
You know it, you love it. Single recovery flashed file restore to UNROOTED STOCK with STOCK KERNEL, STOCK RECOVERY, MODEM, and Normal System Status with a Flash Counter at 0. Basically a replacement for the odin tar method for a quick on-the-go restore. This is the go-to file for a last minute trip to the sprint store or for unbricking without the need for a pc or ODIN. This will do what odin does with the addition of resetting the flash count during flash. To keep a custom recovery flash one from below after rom flash before rebooting into the system. To keep root access flash this after install BEFORE rebooting into system.
As with just about any rom you'll find posted on these forums, FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK as I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone. Special thanks to @deviant.one, @Maddhadder90 and most recently @decimalman for the assistance in making the flash count reset possible for the 32gb Model.
** These zips contain full firmware flashing. Checking the MD5 is highly recommended

This is excellent! Thanks for putting the work into this. Any chance the mods would sticky this for easy access later?
has anyone tried it yet?
If we used this along with the root flash and TWRP can we flash back to our previous rom without issue?
Do you have to have a custom recovery to flash this? Or can it be applied through the stock recovery?
I am currently running blazer rom but have stock recovery.
i am 100% stock, can I run this through normal recovery? I have been waiting for the OTA but havent received it yet.
I don't think this can be flashed with stock recovery. Must have custom recovery to flash

[ROM][ODIN]Odin One-Clicks(AT&T, ROGERS, TELUS, BELL, SASKTEL, TELCEL, KOODO, PCT)
This is a set of Odin One-Click Packages. If you're unfamiliar with these, it is the factory firmware loaded in a compacted version of odin and flashing is executed in a single click. No need to check boxes, or worry about what slots to load etc. Although these have been confirmed working, I do not own this version of the s3 so these have not been tested by me. They're packed in self-extracting 7z archives. They will not affect your flash count. Every device has a rooted version. Most have an unrooted version as well. If yours does not its because I damn near got carpel tunnel making these and my hands needed a break. Unrooted versions will be up soon.
Windows PC with Samsung Drivers installed is required.
Shouldn't be any problems but I am not responsible for any that may arise.
