Try to connect it to your computer and see if Odin detects it. I don't think cwm recovery touch work on the i747

I tried odin but it doesnt detect. If i put in charge i dont see it charging but when i remove the battery and connect usb to pc there is red light , i dont if that means anything or not. I tried kies , odin . If u can give some idea that will be really helpful.

Have you tried this toolkit? If not give it a try. If it still doesn't work you may try a jig to force your phone into download mode

Yeah i rooted my phone with tool kit than i flashed cwm touch zip since than its not doing anything. Now when i connect device the tool kit doesnt recognize any device.

IS this jig really works . I have seen videos on youtube but i wasnt sure if that works or not.

Well... your last resort will be the jig. I will do a research to see if I can find a work around. I may be wrong but the recovery is on the same partition as the boot so flashing the wrong cwm recovery can brick your phone you can always try to send it back to Samsung they will fix it for you

With this it will fierce your phone to enter download mode so you may be able to fix your phone via Odin, if it works . It is worth a try for 3.75

If it doesn't work with the jig return your phone on warranty usually they won't check if you rooted it and will fix it or give you another phone! Can you show me what you flashed?

CWM touch recovery work on att, I use the att version on my i747m. It's version 6.0.1.4

I checked on clockworkmod.com first to see what latest cwm is available for gs3 ..

If you press the power button for about 10sec does the phone vibrate?

Nope it doesnt vibrate. It doesnt even charge ...

I didn't know this thanks for the info ! so now that we know touch recovery works on the i747 you must have done something else while flashing it? Can you explain everything you did?

I use the s3 qcom tool kit to root the phone ( i did exactly shown in video )
Than i downloaded the touch cwm , put it on ext-sd card
Reboot to recovery and install the zip
Installed successfully
So i choose reboot to recovery from cwm and than it never came back to life again.

If you downloaded the cwm touch from clockworkmod.com it should be an .IMG file not .zip and you can't flash it it's for manual installation.

I didnt downloaded it from clockworkmod , i got the file from xda , it was flashable zip file.

I dun goofed

Tried to root the company S3, hard bricked it. I'm guessing I flashed the wrong files.
Phone turns on and shows Samsung for half a second then turns back off.
Can't enter recovery.
I've been looking around for instructions on how to fix this however I cannot find a definite answer. Any help is appreciated!

Can you get into download mode

Volume Down + Home + Power?
Funny I tried it countless times before posting here and I try it again and I am able to enter. But I have no idea what to do now?
Things on my Nexus are a lot easier lol

You need to use Odin to flash the stock firmware back on there. I found this post that has the stock ROM files for Odin.

Download the toolkit from the dev section and use that to flash your phone back to normal
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium

If you can get it into Download mode you should be able to flash back to stock using Odin I think, I hard bricked my s3 4 days ago, I took it back to at&t and I received a brand new one .

The problem with this is that when I try to reflash it waits for adb mode and stays stuck there. I think USB debugging is disabled and I have no way of going in and enabling it.

Bricked?

Hello, so today i was getting a play market error so i decided to flash another recovery, as mine is the earliest versions of TWRP, so i went ahead and flashed it with Odin. It was successful, but wouldn't boot into recovery. So i went ahead and tried to flash another recovery and now it says NAND write fail. Is it bricked ?
It still boots to 4.2.2 AOSP, but i have no root so can't flash recovery.

I AM OFFICIALLY SCREWED !
After getting out of download mode, it wouldnt boot anymore. Firmware upgrade issue. !

I would say buy a usb jig from eBay. Much faster and cheaper than anything else. It forces the phone to go to download mode and from then you can go to Odin and flash stock.

Somehow i managed to get it into Download Mode, but i can't find any stock odin files. Can you help me please!?
Edit: I found it but it's 1.6 GB.. Waiting 10mins
Edit: Weird, but after trying to flash top 3 famous recoveries, they all failed. So i went back and flashed the original recovery and it succeeded!
Thanks for your help, i'll have to figure out how to flash a useable recovery now >.>

IDK how yours failed. Just a few days ago, I flashed TWRP after trying out the new CWM, and everything went great.

if you can get into d/l mode, you have it whipped.

Here's the TWRP 2.5.0.2 file:
https://hotfile.com/dl/230303459/7ce1553/openrecovery-twrp-2.5.0.2-jfltexx.tar.html
Install with ODIN.
Steps to follow........
Method #1 -
Place file in PDA box*
Uncheck all other boxes.
Press start.
When installation is complete, unplug usb cord and pull the battery.
Insert the battery but Don't turn on the phone.
Place phone in Recovery mode via the Power + Volume up buttons.
Method #2 -
The other way I've read to install TWRP Recovery is:
Place the TWRP 2.5.0.2 tar in the PDA box*
Check the auto reboot box and f time reset box.
Start the installation and let the phone reboot.
I believe Method #2 is the method of choice, but sometimes the Recovery doesn't take, so Method #1is recommended.
Here is an explanation why:

Yes, use the tutorial in case you have an issue flashing the recovery, but I think you'll be fine
