Hi!
After flashing many custom kernels and swapping them a lot of times with Mobile Odin, I have noticed two days ago that my Recovery (CWM) is fried. Whenever I try entering it I just end with a bootloop, that carries on for a few times, even if I try booting normally. Then everything works fine.
I didn't care too much until today, I am willing to try some custom roms and I am not able to flash them, and I am not able to Nandroid...
So I said "Let's flash the recovery again!" Hell no... Odin 3.04 just stays on Write Nand Start forever, it's been 20 minutes this time (tried 10 times with diferrent files, usb ports, cables, computers EVERYTHING). I am putting the file in PDA section.
I suppose the recovery partition got corrupted somehow? These are the kernels I swapped: Perseus, Note2Core, NEAK, Different versions of stock and others I don't even remember.
Now I don't even see my build number in Settings->About. It just shows "$" WTF?!
What should I do? I would really like to try some of those beautiful custom roms! I am sick tired of Touchwizz and its lags...

A good start would be to start reading threads about root, flashing, Odin, recovery, custom roms and kernels. If you don`t know what you`re doing you`are about to crash and burn your device

Pit file failed as well, at getting pit for mapping, but in the end I solved by flashing TWRP through Note 2 toolkit. I don't know what the problem was, I'm happy I solved it though. Possibly there was something going on with kies/drivers/odin 3.04 (toolkit uses 3.07) or God knows what else.
Well, dang... I've tried everything I can think of and am stuck. If any of you have suggestions, I'll be forever in your debt.
So I was trying out a few ROMS on my I747. The last working one I had was LiquidSmooth Android (v2.1 I believe) but it was rebooting on me more often than I'd like, so I tried booting into TWRP to restore my last Nandroid of the rooted stock ROM I had been running fine. I know that Nandroid backup was a good one because I have restored it before. So anyway, I boot into TWRP and suddenly TWRP asks me for a password, which it has never done before. It almost looked like TWRP thought my device was encrypted, which it wasn't. But then when I hit "cancel" and tried to use the TWRP Factory Reset wipe, all of the attempts to mount the partitions failed! So I decided to let TWRP reboot the device, thinking something weird was going on with TWRP that would be fixed the next time I loaded it (DOH!) and I've been hosed ever since.
I am in a stange position with my I747 now. The OS won't boot at all. It forces the phone to try to boot into recovery, which is the latest TWRP. Unfortunately that just hangs at the "teamwin" screen and never goes on. First thing I decided to try was to flash a fresh TWRP thinking my TWRP had gotten mucked up. When got the latest TWRP tar from your Toolkit "recovery" folder (I am a donator from a day or two ago) it looked like it successfully flashed the TWRP to the phone, although I'm a bit worried maybe I don't understand Odin's output. Here is what it shows when I flash the TWRP:

The phone reboots like the re-write of TWRP was successful, but then it just hangs at the "teamwin" screen again. So then I thought I'd try flashing CWM instead.. The output from ODIN looks basically the same, but when I reboot into recovery I again am stuck at the "teamwin" screen from TWRP! WTH?
Why am I still seeing the "teamwin" screen if I just flashed CWM and Odin says it succeeded? I'm guessing it has something to do with the "RQT CLOSE !!" line in the log above. Is that actually a failure message that I thought was a success message? It isn't real clear..
So then my last fall back was just to flash the whole stock ROM again. Sadly, that didn't seem to work either. It actually gives me a WRITE (Fail!) message. Here is the output of Odin when trying to write the stock ROM to the phone in Download mode. I'm trying to flash the files called "I747UCDLK3_I747ATTDLK3_I747UCDLK3_HOME.tar.md5".

As you can see, the MD5 checks passed with no problems, but the actual writing of the code to the NAND fails immediately. At this point I have no idea what to try next.
And for the record, I also tried flashing back the original boot image from your Toolkit called "boot-stock-dlk3-SGHI747.tar". Here is what I get when I try to flash that with Odin.

Any suggestions anyone might have for what to do next would be most appreciated. Sadly, this is my only phone, and my employer pays for it. I need to get it up and running as soon as I can, if it is possible. Probably shouldn't have been messing with it in the first place, but I'm a tinkerer at heart.. What can I say?
Thanks for taking the time to read this and thanks for any tips any of you can share!!

Are you using the automated process from the toolkit?
Try using odin alone and flashing back to stock

Flash a rooted stock Rom and reinstall recovery. I would recommend using root66 rooted stock by mr. Robinson.

Or rooted stock...I have had luck in the past going to pure stock and starting over. When your restored use the beginners guide to rooting in the general section. Once root is achieved....use the goo.im app to install most current version of TWRP.

Sorry for not being more clear.. I was using the various tar files, and the Odin exe file from the Toolkit, but I was using them on their own. I would go into the Toolkit install folder and crank of Odin binary by itself, outside of the other tools..
And when I tried flashing a Stock ROM, it would give me the "WRITE (FAIL!)" error.. When I tried re-flashing any recovery, CWM or TWRP, it would say success but when I booted into recovery it would always be TWRP and it would always freeze at the "teamwin" screen and never get past it.
Thoughts?
Thanks!

If you read my post again you will see that I have tried both flashing a stock ROM (non-rooted, got a WRITE error) and flashing a recovery (seems to be successful, but doesn't actually change the recovery on my phone), and neither seem to be working.
Is there any way you guys know of to get passed the messages I'm seeing in ODIN?
Thanks! Much appreciate you guys taking the time to respond!

I would bet it is a case of goofy android device hijinks. If you have another cord use that (this has worked for me in the past). Use that tutorial I linked and see if you can get it back to stock stock stock.

You are right and I don't mind going back to stock ROM at all. I downloaded the stock ROM and tried to flash it with ODIN directly. As you will see in my original post, I got a message from ODIN saying the NAND write had failed.. No idea why! That is why I'm stuck and not sure what to try next.
I have a good Nandroid backup that I could restore if I just had access to TWRP, but it seems hosed up and won't get past the "teamwin" screen, but when I try to reflash TWRP, or CWM Recovery for that matter, it looks like ODIN says it was successful but I always end up stuck right back at that teamwin screen. Even after I just flashed CWM Recovery!! So something isn't right.
Any other ideas?
I don't think you are going to get back in to the recovery. Pull the battery and sim. Let it sit for a while. Did you go and download the tar from link I provided? It could be that the one you have is corrupted. I dunno. Good news is you are not bricked, just soft bricked. We just need the right combo to get it back into the os. It sounds stupid but try another USB cable if you have one.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
I have tried multiple USB cables but that didn't help. The tutorial you linked was actually what I was reading last night to try to fix this myself without bothering anyone here. Unfortunately I get down to step 11 and that is where the problem happens. Odin gives me the output in my oringinal message and tells me the stock ROM could not be written to the NAND. That is why I'm stuck. If you look at my original post, it is in the second quote of ODIN output, and it says:
Code:
<ID:0/007> NAND Write Start!!
<ID:0/007> FAIL! (Write)
I always thought if I could get back to download mode, I'd be able to recover, but unless I can figure out why ODIN can't write the stock ROM to my NAND, I do not know what to try next..
Thanks! Any other ideas?

I did download the same Stock ROM referenced and that is what I've been trying to load. The TAR file seems fine because ODIN says it passes the MD5 checks before it tries to flash it. I have tried it after pulling the battery for a while. Will pull the SIM also, just in case..

For the record, here is a screenshot of what ODIN looks like when I try to flash the stock ROM..
I'm starting to wonder if I need to start using some of the other options in ODIN. Obviously need to understand what they do much better before I start trying things. I don't want to hard brick the device. At least I can still get into download mode at this point!
Any other suggestions? Thanks for the help!

Make sure you are using the stock usb cable that came with the phone. Most micro usb cables are 5 pin, whereas the GS3 has an 11 pin connector and usb cable.

Hmm.. That is interesting. I don't know if I have the original cable or not. Is there a marking on the original that will let me know. I have some many USB cables laying around from Blackberries and other devices, I'm not sure which one is which anymore..
I have successfully flashed stuff with these cables before.. Thoughts?

Unchecked auto reboot and f. Reset time. Let it sit. Then button combo into recovery.

Any time I try to go into recovery I just hang at the TWRP startup screen that says "teamwin".. Even after ODIN tells me "success" on flashing CWM Recovery!! Obviously the flashing of recovery isn't really working even though ODIN is telling me it is a success.
I'm starting to think I have NAND corruption and need to repartition. Does anyone know where to find a STOCK ROM file that is safe to use with the ODIN repartition option?
Thanks!

I have so many microUSB cables lying around here from various devices (BB 9800, Playbook, etc..) I don't know which one is the one that came with the GS3 anymore. Is there a way to tell?
That having been said, aren't they all the same as long as they were made for data sync and power?
And I'm not giving up, I'm just pretty sure I am suffering from what I see referred to in other threads as NAND Corruption. I think I might need to re-partition in order to get it resolved. But in order to do that, of course, I need a good PIT file for my device. Anyone know where I can find a PIT file that is made for this phone (SGH-I747)? I'm not worried about loosing any data. I have a good Nandroid I know I can recover with if I can just get TWRP working again..

So, I was trying out different ROMs on my phone last night and the one I ended up on before I went to sleep kept freezing a lot, so I ended up booting into recovery and I wiped everything a few times and then reflashed it. The one time I did this, it failed (I can't remember what it said) and I couldn't flash the file. I tried re-wiping everything, but nothing. I was pretty tired and must've hit reboot by mistake, because the next thing I know, I'm stuck on the Samsung boot screen.
Now, I can only go into downloading mode, but it currently says:
Product Name; (blank)
Custom Binary: No
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Custom
I can get it recognized on Odin (3.04), but whenever I try to flash stock ROM, it says one of two things: 1) (most common) Can't open serial (COM), and 2) (JUST happened as I was trying again to reflash) There is no PIT partition.
The second one is new, I assume I have to get a PIT file from somewhere to fix that?
The first one, if it comes back, how should I deal with that?
(Is it really bad that it doesn't have anything after Product Name? )
Thanks in advance. I'd really like to get this fixed up ASAP T_T

I actually found that a little bit before your response and I've been trying to flash it, but it either says it can't connect to serial (COM) or just fails and doesn't say why...ONE TIME it went to the "PIT for mapping" part and then just stalled for hours.
The serial one I assumed was drivers or just the USB port I was using, so I reinstalled the drivers and I've tried different ports, still no change.
The drivers didn't find any updates, but I assume there aren't really any?
Not really sure where to go from here... Is there something else that could be causing the serial thing?
EDIT: This is what it does when I restart download mode and immediately plug it into Odin and try to flash the PIT. It only does it the first time and then it sticks on SetupConnection.

well delete all old Samsung drivers and kies if any any remove all temp file left over restart you pc

Well, I tried all of those and it didn't work. Still getting the same error as before, unless I reboot into downloading mode and immediately plug in the phone to the PC, in which case I get:

Every try after that says the serial error.
I assume that the main issue is the drivers not working right? It says it's been successfully installed and all of that, but then it's not connecting or something? You said to get rid of "temp files", how's the best way to go about that? That could be one of the issues, because I wasn't sure what you meant by that.
If the drivers don't end up working, is the only way to continue trying to fix it to go from a different computer?

i bricked one last week and dr ketan helped me out, i think your drivers are fine. i had to plug in before opening odin, wipe data, wipe partition from recovery, flash pit, if it dont work try another, till pass, then flash with firmware together. double check with ketan. oh an make sure u use rear usb port. pit is in post 4 of his tut.

use your uninstaller software to unistall your drivers as it delete all traces of file . then ccleaner to clean registry and click clean.
go to start menu-run -type %temp% press enter delete all . reboot and install drivers and use the driver version in mentioned and skip upgrade
at this point your driver install will be clean so it should pass the flash remember antivirus as it can block the operation too.
try the rescue firmware
Okay so here's what I did:
Uninstalled drivers and the program (add/remove programs in control panel and in device manager), deleted temp files, restarted computer, reinstalled drivers, not connected to internet so it didn't try to update, opened odin (3.07, from the toolkit) and plugged in the phone into the usb and then turned phone on into download mode, it said it was searching for drivers etc, recognized the phone, showed up in odin, put the pit+4 files from toolkit, and hit to flash.
Now, it's saying (set partition) above the COM 3, and it's hanging on "get pit for mapping.."
It shouldn't be taking a really long time, right? Cause I've heard it's nearly instant...
I'm not sure what the problem is cause it does this the first time, then goes back to the serial issue.
EDIT: This time, I redid everything again and tried Odin 3.04 and it said this:
<ID:0/003> Odin v.3 engine (ID:3)..
<ID:0/003> File analysis..
<ID:0/003> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/003> Initialzation..
<ID:0/003> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/003> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
<ID:0/003>
<ID:0/003> Re-Partition operation failed.
<ID:0/003> Added!!
So, it skipped the "getting the PIT file" part, but it failed again. Should I try to do it without the PIT file or something? Like, it's always said that there was no PIT when I did that.
Okay, so I just tried to do everything on a different computer and still not working. Every time it comes up with "Get PIT for mapping" even though I add the PIT for flashing...
Does this mean that my phone is a lost cause? Or is there something else I can try?
I have a problem with my Tab3. When i am in download mode all i get is this. See picture.
I had a problem that the tab always reboots into recovery. So i want to flash a stock firmware. Any ideas?

i have come to a similar dead end.
came from fastdreamV6 rom and odin'd in T210RUEU0COB1_T210RXAC0COB1_HOME .tar .md5
pardon my terminology but i guess you'd say i dirty Odin'd it?> did not wipe or revert.
its where things went wroung for me
soo any ways.. looking for helpful and knowledageble people to begin trouble shooting this issue
after the install it rebooted and showed the tab3 splash screen then android package installer full screen before an OS. when the page installer screen disappeared that was the end of any responsiveness from the device.
mine always boots to black screen. no recovery , no audible/visual anything until odin mode.
always a black screen until i walk through the odin/download mode key' sequence blind
i have only half of what should look like a odin/download mode screen, the android guy has disappeared.
WIN7 does find the tab3 thats in [email protected]$$ odin mode in the device manager
odin also sees the tab3 but odin doesnt want to work to upload anything < hangs at setupconnection.. or pit mapping failed even when i have the new pit file being pushed,

hemidall gives me communication conflicts
adb .. i currently have no os on the tablet as far as i can tell. maybe somebody can tell me if i can fastboot a command to push a recovery into it. but without adb-communication. i dont see it happening?
i presume i have a corrupted .pit file thats its not allowing me to replace.
OR KITKAT needs its own .pit file and i will need help aquiring one.
or its just a really bad flash alltogether. being boot.img. system img. recover img
how should i proceed if there is a way ? looking to get back to stock 4.4.2.
i can solder and make a usb jig if nessasary.
1 week later; further developments and workaround to boot here:

so, i decided to flash back to 5.1.1 but i have unfortunately was not be able to pull this move from some weird error.
After many attempts here's what I've done.
I used the Flashable Tar for 6.0.1 MM and after awhile for my experience i went and tried to flash back to OL1 5.1.1 the latest rev and now i was stuck with Odins "Set Partition" or "BootLoader" wont flash or format nothing phase,
After i rebooted the phone, i noticed i could still access TWRP and Download mode and left with nothing to flash but going to TWRP and charge my phone....
In Twrp i was left with its "Unable to mount" and "Invalid arguement" issues after each little label for trying to mount and everything from the log, i've tried zip from a OTG and that didn't work even sideloading wouldn't help. I was left with nothing and it kept confusing.
My drivers were up to day, i tried a different Odin 10.7 and even tried Kies but that didn't even work so.
I made another attempt with Odin one more time and i was left with this log.
for flashing the 5.1.1 again G920PVPU3BOL1_G920PSPT3BOL1_G920PVPU3BOL1_HOME.tar.md5
it goes to
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> G920PVPU3BOL1_G920PSPT3BOL1_G920PVPU3BOL1_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.
<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

It would hang from this point doing nothing, and sometimes even after words it would say "Set Partition" or "Bootloader" in bold, and when i reset the phone to go back into "TWRP" it sends me this response.
<ID:0/010> __XmitData_Write
<ID:0/010> Complete(Write) operation failed.

I'm ultimately stumped,
So earlier which took about 1-2 hours to finally figure this out, i've tried wiping data,cache and etc or anything for that matter, and then I received a slew of "Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)" and "Unable to mount storage" when trying to flash anything. Surprisingly enough, my internal memory shows up as 0mb aswell, then i went to "Wipe" - "Format Data"- "Yes" and it formatted with it's function and i rebooted back into Twrp it reads its original storage but i'm still left with no way to boot up completely.
sometime after i've tried flashing the 6.0.1 tar and i recieved this
6.0.1\ALL_SPT_G920PVPU3CPB6_G920PSPT3CPB6_CL7280193_QB8664149_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5

I have googled around XDA and around the general web, and I see a lot flashing for PIT or extracting the tar to make odin read it and attempt to flash it 1by1 but im not sure how to entirely do that I'd like this to be as easy as possible since i only have very little knowledge for Attempts to solve this.
I am not sure where to find the other files, let alone Bootloader for the MM stock flashable 6.0.1 or the 5.1.1 latest rev, I have the stock tar but not the rest.
I am genuinely asking for help, with someone that has maybe had this issue, or what can be done to solve it.
Any help would be vastly appreciated.
so, i've tried multple tars and nothing has worked for me it is always stuck that one file sboot.bin i've tried the OL1 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 stock tar it just isnt cutting it, BUT what i've notcied is that i was able to flash the Renegade rom in TWRP via OTG and it worked, iwas able to access the phone like usual and everything was written just fine but im still lost as to why it wont flash that sboot.bin file. i practically cant reset or reformat my phone.
How bout restarting the computer, Maybe a differnt one. How many times have you flashed that phone? Maybe this might start happening to others time will tell. personally i dont like odin I only use it only when needed to reset update firmware or recovery update. Its not often. Is your cable wore out hey at least you got the renegade rom and can flash something.
You know you can't downgrade right? Once you update you can't go back.

That is not entirely true. And you can always JTAG back even, lol.

Yes. Regardless, your going to break something if you flash different bootloaders.
how would i be able to do that? i've tried different cables and im now trying the different odin and twrp im scared it will just keep saying sboot.bin forever i mean it was just a simple flash mm6.0.1 tar from the threads not the official one :/ and then downgradin didnt let me is there a way i can log that?
provided any links? or bootloader files?
I was able to flash back to 5.1.1 via offical TAR with no bricking, many people have done the same, granted, usually this isnt possible, but has worked for me many times now on customer devices as well as once on my own, just to test it lol.
can u send me your tar file? by chance?

Here. I did the downgrade 6.0.1 to 5.1.1 too with no problem.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/60059/G920PVPU3BOJ7_G920PSPT3BOJ7_SPR/
So for right now I'm still unable to flash the Tars still. Even with the same and different tar I downloaded. I've tried different cables, computers, I just i don't seem to figure this out.... What do I do? Is there a way to capture an Odin log or even on my phone??
The xmit data writ happens after I restart my phone because it just hangs or freezes on the sboot.bin file or item..... Is there a way to flash it seperately??? I'm still some how running the 6.0.1 renegade custom rom tho and everything else is fine

I recommend getting a pit file and flashing it. You seem to be having partition issues as noted by the TWRP error logs when it tries to mount things.
I made one awhile ago, it's for the 32GB variant if that's what you have try and Google search for it. Don't ask me for it because I'll have to Google search too but don't have the time right this second.
