Don't worry you're not into too big of a problem. That download mode is all you need. Search around xda and flash the firmware for your model using odin.

Download the last firmware form you phone here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and then flash it with the latest odin.

phone boots straight to odin mode help!

my friend tried to root his T999 but messed up on a step im guessing so now his phone will boot straight to odin mode. i tried putting it in download mode and use odin3 to restore it back to stock but odin3 would get stuck at the "nand write start" stage. his phone says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." when it is powered up. does anybody know how to fix this issue?? any help would be great! i googled everything that i could think of and tried everything that was suggested but nothing works! thanks in advance!!

Contradictory. Is it in download mode or isn't it?
You did not say what was being flashed with Odin, either.
Phones do not boot into ODIN. You will have to provide more info so we can help.
Links to the ROM or software you used etc.
ok i shouldve explained this a little more clearly. when i power on the phone it says this...
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: SGH-T999
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (10 COUNTS)
CURRENT BINARY: Custom
SYSTEM STATUS: Official
QUALCOMM SECUREBOOT: ENABLE
Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again.
so i pulled the battery, put it in download mode (vol down + home + power) ran ODIN3, and tried to flash SGH-T999_TMB_T999UVALH2_T999TMBALH2_Original (which is a stock image) thats when it gets stuck at the NAND write start!!
I could be completely wrong but it appears you tried to install an incompatible rom.
are you talking about the SGH-T999_TMB_T999UVALH2_T999TMBALH2_Original file?

Yes. I have not seen MBALH2 before regarding the tmo galaxy s3. I could be wrong. Hopefully someone more knowledgeable than me will chime in.
i also used this file too
T999UVDLJC_T999TMBDLJC_T999UVDLJC_HOME.tar
i downloaded the firmware from http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SGH-T999

If I understand correctly you flashed that after the first one. I'm not a IT guy, but to the best of my understanding if you flash a ROM intended for another device you are going to have major issues. Sorry. I know my answers are not what you are looking for. I am trying to give you a heads up for your friends phone.
well i am trying to flash the correct firmware for his tmobile S3.

He didn't flash the wrong file. Some other issue. Try a different data cable and USB port.

Help Soft Brick and cant find files needed

I was on the omni rom and decided to change my recovery when this happened.
It wouldnt boot past the samsung screen. I cannot get into recovery but I can get into download mode.
I know one possible fix is flashing the stock image through Odin but I cannot find the stock images. All the links are dead.
Anything will help.
Also if there is anybody willing to walk me through this real time, feel free to message me and we can chat on google hangouts.

What recovery are you using ?
Since you can get in to recovery, did you try restoring any of your previous backups ?
Are you already on 4,3 bootloader ?
You can download thr stock 4.3 firmware from here : http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SGH-T889&pcode=0
You will need an account on sammobile though.

How did you flash T889UVALL4 ?
Most likely your phone is on a newer(4.3) bootloader and flashing an older bootloader caused the boot loop.
I am very certain that flashing 4.3 stock image will resolve this problem.

That might be it, since I was on 4.4.2 before. Do you know if there are better hosting sites for the download file because the ones on that site take 6 hours to download.

What bootloader is on your phone? If you don't know, boot into download mode and look for a reference to warranty bit. If you see something about warranty bit, that means you have at least a 4.3 bootloader and you can't flash a stock ROM unless the ROM was compiled for flashing in Odin.
If you have at least the 4.3 bootloader, I suggest flashing Philz Touch custom recovery via Odin. Copy a CM10.2 or early CM11 ROM onto an external SD card, boot into recovery, and flash the ROM. This will at least get you phone running to determine exactly which bootloader and baseband are on your phone.
I'm not sure what bootloader I was on, I think it was mjb software . I assume I was on the latest and I tried to flash a previous version and now my phone is hard bricked. I bought a jig on eBay and it should come early this week. I guess what my next question is, is if I can get into download mode using the jig, what software would I need to flash using Odin 3.09.
Sorry I'm kinda new to Odin and the gs3 flashinng so I'm not familiar with it (I also have a nexus 5 so I'm used to using fastboot). Could someone post what files I need to get my gs3 back in order assuming I can get into download mode?
Thank you for all of your help, it sucks having a bricked phone and not really knowing how to fix it.
Does your phone turn on at all? If not, a jig probably won't help.
It does but doesnt turn on. When i hold the power button nothing happens and it does not vibrate. But when i plug it into the computer the usb sound goes off and the red led comes on (Charging phone LED). Do you think a jig will help?
When you connect the phone, what does it say in device manager? Of it says something like qusb load, it may be hard bricked.

When i plug it into the computer it shows up as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM7)"
Does that mean im screwed? Is there anything I can do?
Since the phone will not go into download or recovery, you may have to have it jtagged. Before doing that, did you try to de-brick it?
This may help too: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2549068

Where to download stock Rom beside sammobile

Hi
I managed to brick my T800. I have twrp but I can't get into recovery mode. I can get into down load mode, though. So I'm trying to flash a rom with Odin but down load from sammobile is taking forever. I'm afraid the logo will burn in. (I can't turn it off either, it wants to reboot)
Is there done place else where I can get a rom I can flash with Odin?
Thanks

Update Stoped On Galaxy Note II Screen

Hello, I used to be rooted with custom ROMs ect but went back to stock I317ATTALJ2 so I can give the phone to my daughter. Well everything went smooth until an update from AT&T came through and she ran it when the battery was at 21% but I'm not sure it that matter but didn't help in matters... Anyhow it ran the upgrade and on reboot it stayed on the Galaxy Note II screen and wont do anything but sit there. I let it sit for a long time before pulling the battery and booting but it goes to same screen and same thing. I can not get into recovery (Volume Up, Home, Pwr) but I can go into download mode. With the battery being so low I read that it charges while in download mode so for the remainder of the day I put the phone in download mode and plugged into charger.
Suggestions?
After you get it charged up some and you're in download mode. Just Odin back to stock Att firmware should fix the problem hopefully...
You can find the stock firmware here>> http://bit.ly/1HNVFVJ
Guess the phone didn't like that update ?.

Ok.
Hopefully everything works out next time around.
Another thing you could try is flashing which ever recovery you previously had installed. Last time I was having issues with something similar, after re flashing my recovery everything started working again. Just just a thought that might work.
I'm monitoring this thread too see what happens ok.

Recovery? can I flash the stock recovery using ODIN? If so where do I get it.... I always have used TWRP I wanted to use custom ROMs never really experimented with anything else.

Yes you can flash a custom recovery from Odin. You just have to use the (Twrp) tar file found here>>>
http://bit.ly/1y0Tyg7
Find your device model and download the tar. And make sure you're downloading the correct file for your device ok!
I to use Twrp and luv it.?
OK, well its not looking good....
1) Flashed the stock firmware suggested...... Still get same results!
2) Flashed TWRP through ODIN and it made it to the same screen and froze. Did a battery pull and button combo and it wont go into recovery.
Is there a application that will force your phone into recovery and download modes? I remember back when I messed with the captivate there was a application someone built that did such a thing.
Any suggestions?
