So i bought a samsung galaxy s3 SGH-I747 here in milan. i unlocked it. and didn't realize it was rooted, so i try to unroot it using this method
-----------------> /watch?v=djcq5Wgf9zo[/url]
i did it but, it wont read my simcard, the IMEI in null/null, the camera was all dark, and all different kind of problem acured, by the way, it was running android 4.0.4 ... so i though if i root it again the problem will go away. but it didn't. so i tried to intall kitkat 4.4.2 and g'app. i used this method -------------------------> watch?v=V8mEcfJcxy8[/url]
when i was trying to install the kitkat, it say it faild and aborted i guess, but i was dumb so i install the g'app and it was succesfull, then i install the kitkat rom but still faild. so i delete the partition, and format and reset. then i rebooted it, but everytime i turned it on, either it goes to the recovery mood, or its stock on samsung logo. and now i dont know what to do ??? please help..

Is your phone the i747 or i747m? What firmware did you try to flash using Odin?

Okay first you're in the wrong forum, so I'm assuming you tried to root with the wrong rooting method because you have a gt-i9300...go check out the international S3's forums and maybe you can find an answer there?

You'll need JTAG service repair.

He may not if it is a soft brick. As long as when he says softbrick he means that it is not loading past the Samsung log or the ATT logo for example. I was on stock rooted 4.3 as well and tried flashing other roms as well and soft bricked my phone in the process.
I ended up with two choices, load only 4.3 (The STOCK MOD v4 install worked for me just fine - but I was trying to get out of 4.3 tbh) Tried several other roms and all would end in a soft brick.
Finally landed on a stock 4.1.2 UCMG2 rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2388065
After clearing my internal SD and formatting it I flashed it and it worked (took a long time on the Samsung logo but worked!) the wifi is a little flaky at times but it always was on 4.1.2 for me anyways... the key I believe was that this rom did not have a bootloader and modem updated, which was required to properly downgrade after having had previously installed 4.3.
OP try it out and see how that works? Unfortunately I could not find a TAR of this, but luckily I was able to use a microSD adapter to move the needed files onto the SD card so that I could flash in TWRP.

If he was on stock 4.3 and tried to ODIN to stock 4.1.1, then he's gonna need a JTAG.
If he had tried to flash something via TWRP/CWM then it wouldn't have been an issue.

Aaaah OK! Thanks for the clarification on why
You do not need a JTAG service. There is a way to unbrick it of you accidentally downgraded your bootloader from 4.3 OTA.

As you'll soon discover, I'm a noob. I stupidly took the OTA update on my Samsung Galaxy S3 T-Mobile T999 from 4.1.2 to 4.3. Since doing so mine and my wife's phone (did the same thing to her also) gets in a mess after being connected to the car stereo bluetooth and prevents outgoing calls unless the phone is rebooted.
So to try to solve this, I rooted the phone and installed CM 11, so now I'm on 4.4.2. This didn't help the issue either and instead is worse at connecting to the bluetooth.
I want to get my phone back to the stock 4.1.2 rom, which I got from sammobile (PDA T999UVDMD5) or at worst back to the 4.3 stock rom (PDA T999UVUEMJC).
This morning I tried to flash T999UVDMD5_T999TMBDMD5_T999UVDMD5_HOME.tar using ODIN 307 but it failed almost instantly with an Fail! Auth message.
I also tried to flash CM 10.1 zip on my SD card using ClockworkMod Recovery v 6.0.4.5 but again it failed almost instantly (sorry I didn't take note of the error).
So now I'm back to CM 11. So any suggestions for how to get back to either of the stock roms?

If you are getting errors in both odin and cwm, it sounds like it is a root issue. In other words, it sounds like the apps are being denied access to root and therefor cannot flash. Both odin and cwm are able to generate logs so you can tell the reason for the fail. Personally, I would recommend flasing twrp recovery instead of cwm since it seems to simplify alot and is a little better for our device. Without knowing exactly why the flash is failing, i would just recommend to try and re-root the phone again.
Did you put the phone in Downloading mode before connecting to the Odin ?
Do not try to flash 4.1.2 ever. It will brick your phone.

Yes the phone was in downloading mode. I couldn't find any posts that thought that I would brick my phone for sure by downgrading so I thought I would try. Could I go back to the 4.3 Stock ROM with some degree of confidence?
Yes you can go back to 4.3 Stock.

So I'm now back to Stock 4.3 by doing a flash via Odin. I did (stupidly) try to then go back to 4.1.2 again using Odin having put the phone in USB debugging mode first but I still got the same Auth Fail error.
Thanks for all the help.

You cannot downgrade like that once you have updated to official 4.3 firmware, no offence but why would you try it even after Perseus said not to? Anyway if you want to go back to 4.1.2 so badly just download a 4.1.2 ROM and flash it in recovery

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll just quit while I'm only slightly behind now and remain on 4.3 Stock. I appreciate everyone's help and suggestions.
Downgrade from CM11 4.4.2 to 4.3 on I747
I went from 4.3 stock to CM11 on my i747 but i didnt like the update. So i am trying to go back to 4.3 however whenever i try to install the 4.3 zip file thru twrp or CWM, it fails. As far as i know there is no odin file for going back. I tried to flash rogers 4.3 file through odin (thinking i would flash at&t modem later) but that also failed.
I would appreciate any help on how to install 4.3 once 4.4.2 has been installed on an i747
You seriously need to do some reading

For One, you are on the wrong forum. This is for T-Mobile's S3 not AT&T. Second, Like @passtheknowledge said, you really need to do significant research and reading here on XDA.

Please Read through this Thread. For Future Reference, all Odin Files for S3 in general are looked up by unique Keyword Root66. That thread is the right place for you to post errors or issues. If there's no 4.3 image for your phone there, you can post a request as well.
For your immediate Problem, there is a an alternate ATT StockMod Rom by @saranhai Please see this thread. Pay particular attention to the mandatory requirement of flashing a particular modem beforehand.
So, i decide to root my s3 because i wanted to do some cool stuff. I got odin, got the tar file and tried flashing it. For some reason it didn't work :crying: On odin it gave me a fail. I was in download mode too. So, when i turn on my s3 it is in odin mode but it says "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." i did this in kies and when it was at like 99% it gives me an error. :crying:
so i tried flashing again in odin still fail, but i get on my s3 SV REV CHECK FAIL: Fused 2 > Binary 0. I have no clue what that means, So, i just want my phone to get working again i dont care about rooting anymore. JUST HELP ME FIX IT!!!!:crying:
BTW: I di root my Kindle Fire a while back so i thought I would have experience with this (i kind of do) but i guess I thought wrong.
Was your phone running a stock 4.3 AT&T ROM? What method did you use to try and root the phone?

Since your phone was running a stock 4.3 ROM, you can't use Odin to install a stock AT&T 4.3 ROM because it doesn't exist. There are leaked ROMs around that you could try flashing.
Alternatively, you could install a custom recovery and install a custom 4.4.2 ROM.

Hello I would appreciate any help with my device. The problem I am having is I can flash no touchwiz roms such as slimbean and CM11 but cannot flash stock non touchwiz roms. I would like to get wifi calling running but my phone just wont flash those roms. I am using the latest TWRP and my original rom was a 4.2.2 rom but it did not have the wifi calling option. I first encountered my problem when I got the phone and tried to root it and install a custom 4.4.2 rom. The flash failed and from there I was stuck on the Samsung logo. I tried to odin back to stock with the nb4, mk2 and mdl images but odin wil not let me flash it I get nand Write start FAIL error. Tried different odin's, cables, ports and still no go. I know I must be missing something but I have searched and searched and every post says it should be working. Please help.

What is the fail message when flashing the rom in recovery?

Your device is not really a m919....and honestly only mb2 firmware I've ever heard of was actually for the s3 not the s4...there's a bunch of these weird ass devices going around. Both m919 and i9505's. Let me guess you bought it on the Internet?
Thank You all as you suspected the phone was a fake luckily the seller is taking it back.
