Major issue trying to root - Firmware Upgrade Encountered an Error - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Good afternoon, and thank you for taking your time to read my thread.
I recently attempted to root my phone, and having little to no issue rooting many other devices (including my previous phone, a Galaxy Prevail) I decided I was fed up with the bloatware.
I began the process, but encountered an issue where ODIN failed while attempting to root the device.
I am not 100% sure, but I know this information may very well help me to a solution: I don't think I enabled debug mode in settings.
When attempting to use KIES to restore firmware, I get a "this device is not recognized" error, and even when trying to manually enter S/N and device info, it will not let me use any part of KIES to restore it.
So I then tried to use ODIN to flash stock firmware...
First error I receive is almost immediate:

Please, if you have any advice for me I am begging.. I only was able to upgrade to this device because of a promotion AT&T had to get it for $5 dollars.. I am very income restricted so buying a new device is a crippling idea. If you do by chance suggest I download a new version of ODIN ( I am using 3.07, I find it most stable) or a new stock firmware etc, please provide links as I have attempted many different mirrors (with horrendous download speeds) for different stock recovery firmware.
THANK YOU!!!

I appreciate your time.. All it took was attempting to root the phone another time to restore access... Wow.. I hate myself ._.

So, what's the state of the phone now and what happens when you try to power on? Is it now booting normally to system?

Help!
Phone kept crashing on occasion after an install of BBM for android. An Uninstall and Factory Reset in the settings did not help.
2 days ago it crashed and after powering it back on I get the:

I've searched but this is as far as I can get
Kies firmware recovery was no help either.
Please Help!
I don't know what you did, but it looks like you need to send it to Samsung. If there isn't a PIT partition, that's bad, and you wouldn't want to mess with those, or you might end up with even worse a brick.

Hopefully NOT Bricked but Unsure of What to Do

Ok, I got a new Note II the other day with 4.3 already installed via Kies or OTA. I attempted to push, via ODIN, "CF-Auto-Root-d2tmo-d2tmo-sght999.tar". I REALIZE THIS IS THE ROOT FOR S3; I KNOW I FLASHED THE WRONG FILE. PLEASE DO NOT POST SAYING I FLASHED THE WRONG FILE. I KNOW I SCREWED UP BIG TIME, AND I'M HOPING SOMEONE IS NICE ENOUGH TO TRY AND HELP ME THROUGH THIS. My laptop sat there for the better part of 2 hours acting like ODIN was cranking along but the bar never moved. After 2 hours, I had to pull the cord from the phone (stupid move, I know!), and this is, of course, where the problem began.
Now, I get the coveted "Firmware Upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." screen. The phone will, obviously, go no further than this in booting up. I am able to get to download mode.
I attempted to install JellyBean Release 4.3 (December 2013) from this thread to alleviate the issue. Here's the ODIN result:

Now, as I sit here and write this, I think installing a stock firmware like this one might not work at all. I need to install a recovery (stock or otherwise) to make this problem disappear. I tried to reinstall the CF-Auto-Root file and got this result:
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

Again, it didn't do anything for hours. I pulled the cord again since it didn't look like it was actually writing anything to my phone.
I don't think I can use KIES as a last resort since I never backed up the phone through KIES before. I am out of ideas, and I would really like to get this phone operational again. Also, the serial number has been removed from the device (Igot the phone from Ebay), so I don't think I could use this route either.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Download and flash CF auto-root for sgh-t889(link below)it includes recovery, then perform factory reset by rebooting in to recovery.

Also need to inform im using windows 10 but with correct drivers and connects with odin.
Cant anyone please help me...tried different roms and firmware still same problem...
I believe the eMMC chip has failed. The same happened to my phone and the service guy said i needed a new motherboard.
Some say it may also be a corrupted bootloader, which i have had no luck in fixing.
Wish i could help
It's ok thanks for informing me at least
Love to hear if you get it up and running again
I would love that too but don't have any solutions at the moment

S9 FAIL! (Auth) SECURE CHECK FAIL: system Issue Help

Hi all,
Some quick background: A few days ago while I was using my S9 plugged in, my device all of a sudden froze. I did a force restart (Volume Down + Power) and from then on my phone would boot up, get to the white 'Samsung' logo then shut down and restart over and over. It never could get past the 'Samsung' logo. I tried a bunch of the solutions in Recovery Mode that I could find on the internet (wipe cache, etc.) and nothing worked so I ended up as a final resort going with the factory reset option. The same issue persisted after factory reset which lead me to this forum and giving Odin a try.
I found the correct firmware for my phone from this site which matched the firmware my device showed in recovery mode. I initially bought the phone through Rogers but switched to Bell and had them unlock it. I followed the instructions from this forum trying both the Bell and Rogers firmware's which gave me a FAIL! My phone read SECURE CHECK FAIL: system. I reset tried using Home CSC and CSC for both firmware's and neither worked. Then I downloaded the patched Odin3 v3.13.1 from here with both firmware's (after reading you may have to use it to patch unlocked phones) and got the same error. I then tried 3.14.1 and the patched version from the same forum, both giving me the exact same error. I then tried running all of the Odin programs as administrator, still the same issue. I also tried various different USB cords and ports, nothing has worked.
My phone is now stuck in Download Mode with an Error message reading 'An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software.' but Odin still seems to be working with it so I don't think that is an issue. I tried the Smart Switch software which did not even pickup my phone like the instructions.
Below is my 'Log' from an attempt with the Bell firmware on Odin3 v3.14.1. I have gotten the same error across all Odin versions and with both firmware's. Under the 'Options' tab in Odin, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time are selected by default. I tried deselecting one then both, as well as selecting 'Re-Partrition' and still no success

Sorry for the long post. Any solutions or help that can be offered would be greatly appreciated. I am new to this so is there something I am doing wrong? Please let me know if you need anymore information
SUMMARY: Phone would not stop rebooting over and over, never making it past the 'Samsung' Logo. Tried everything I could in Recovery Mode including a factory reset. Issue persisted. Tried to flash the firmware via Odin3 v3.13.1, 3.13.1 patched, 3.14.1, 3.14.1 patched, all failed in the same spot (FAIL! Auth SECURE CHECK FAIL: system). Firmware matched what my device showed in Recovery mode. Tried 2 different carriers, one that I am currently using and one that I bought my phone through. Stuck and need help.
