your phone is not broke! Relax! Enter Download mode (Vol. down+ home+ power) and flash a stock firmware of your region or any other stock! Guide here
PLEASE READ INSTRUCTIONS!
If the phone does not boot up and is looping, then simply remove the battery> Reinsert> enter recovery (vol. up+home+power) and do a factory reset and cache wipe and reboot!

are you sure the jig will work because i read online that that only fixed soft bricked phones, and mine is described as a hardbricked phone
if your phone could not turn on, jig probably won't work for you. It is best used for boot-loop or similar situations.

If home is a soft key then you have the AT&T SGS2. Go to that forum and ask for the key combination for download mode. Once you are in download mode flash a rom.

If you're 100% sure the three-button combo isn't working, try a USB Jig to get into download mode. From there, flash a stock ROM.

hey body yes i do that but steel not working. the 3 button combo not working for me . i read somewhere that i must wipe cache but if i can not go to recovery mode i cant wipe cache.
my phone is bricked and i can not go to recovery mode.
thanx for all
i found the solution.
it was my fault that the 3 button combo not working.

Trying out the S3 Toolkit. Works until I get to actually rooting, not being detected by Odin. Reinstalled drivers. Tried different USB ports and USB cord. I tried manually putting my phone into download mode, Didn't work. Tried to manually put phone in download mode, When I press volume down + power button I get,

Hitting the volume down + home + power does nothing for me. Any ideas? Phone is second hand, no idea what previous owner did with it.

Do you have usb debugging enabled in development settings? If so look at item 1 in my signature, the easiest and safest way to root mate. Takes about 1 minute

Turn off the phone. Then press volume down, menu and power button at the same time and you get in downloadmode.

Yes I am having the same issue, a friend of mine bought it online from a website for $ 180.00 and I rooted 3 tmo ones and they were very simple and easy.
The problem with this one is that the phone never get's to download mode not even with the jig.
When you hold Volume Down + Home + Power, it takes you to a different screen, I will try to upload a picture soon so that you guys can see what's going on.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Here is more information on the device.
Model number: GT-i9300
Android version: 4.0.4
Baseband version: I9300XXLE8
Build number: IMM76D.I9300XXALE9
Custom Build Version: V3G.12.07.20
Thanks in advanced hope to hear from someone soon to see if they are able to assist us with this issue.
Here that's the screen we get when we hold volume down + home + power button.
Any ideas how to get this phone into download mode?
Thanks again.

Seems like some custom software has been installed on the fone that has overwritten what is supposed to be there. Someone more knowledgeable than me would have to tell you how to get
rid of it. It would help to know where the fone is from.
First question has to be is this the International I9300 phone or some other model .

You can try the CF root as posted .
But if its not a I9300 then it may damage your clone .

the problem is that you can not even get in to download mode to do that, if you hold HOME+volum up+Power phone will go into recovery mode
and even in recovery mode no option can be selected

If you look at the top of the general section there is a Question thread, more people monitor that thread than the main section. Posting there in future is best practice.
If your stuck at boot I would suggest removing the battery. Hold the volume+ volume- and the power button while reinserting the battery (this can be done with the help of a friend if needed)
The phone should go into download mode press vol- to confirm you want to risk your device by using odin. Doing the same but holding the vol+, home and power button then inserting the battery will take you to recovery.
One thing worth noting is having the usb lead connected at the time of pressing the buttons can (sometimes) stop it working properly as the device goes to charge as a priority. Also did you remember to wipe the Dalvik cache as a hung boot screen could be the device memmory is too full and it did not finish the install due to this.
If no luck using this method then you can look up usb jig (I have never had to go this far)

Press + & - Volume Key And Power Button. Ur Now In Download Mode. Hit Thanks If I Helped U

Hello there, I own a galaxy s3 for quite a while and I remember I rooted the device and flashed the Revolutionary S5 ROM via odin long time ago (I did all this with the help of several youtube videos because I am an ignorant in this matter).
But well the problem started when I was going to make a factory reset to the phone because I lent it to a friend and when I got it back I just wanted to clean it and wipe all the info. I entered to recovery mode (twrp) and by accident I wiped all the phone had including te OS. I noticed it because when I was going to power off the phone in recovery mode it told me that there was no OS.
So now the phone is in a bootloop, because when I try to turn it on I only see the samsung galaxy logo and thats it, the same when I plug the phone to the power it only shows the battery screen.
I also have the problem with the volume up key that doesnt work so I cant access the recovery mode. Only the download mode using the volume down+home+lock button combination but still i cant do anything because of the volume up buttom that doesnt work.
If someone can help me with this problem I would really appreciatte it. Explaining me like a 5 yo.

No I dont, I can enter download mode by pressing the volume down + home+ lock button. But after that I cant do anything else because in download mode it tells me to press volume up to continue and volumen down to cancel. And unfortunately my volume up button doesnt work.
Any ideas?
The jig will put the phone into download mode, no buttons required.
To use the jig, remove battery, insert jig, insert battery.

Any other way I can get into download mode without the jig?
I don't know of any other way to get into download mode.
The jig works with many models of Samsung phones.
Op states he can access download mode but not recovery. Flash the latest stock firmware twice via odin and factory reset in between flashes. Make sure the firmware matches your phone region etc and must android 4.3.

Sorry to bother you but can you tell in depth how to do that without using the volume up key, because I cant fully access the download mode. I just get stuck in the screen that says press volume up to continue or volume down to cancel.
Solved.
Maybe its not the best way to fix it but I inserted a little blade into the volume buttons and took the button out, I clean it a little bit and inserted it so that the volume up key could function (not fully). So that way I accessed recovery mode and flashed the rom I had using an extsd card where I previously copied the zip of the rom. Now I will flash the stock rom twice and who know from there.
Thanks all for your answers

Ah, ok then that isn't download mode at all.
Looks like you'd be best sending it to a repair shop because at this point you need the buttons working. You could dismantle the phone and short the button pad with a small metallic object but if your skills don't range to that i would advise against it as it is very easy to damage the component when shorting it out manually.
