Flash recovery twrp. 2.8.7.3 via heimdall. Other way flash back to stock rom with i9300 pit file via odin.. make sure you choose the right pit for i9300 16gb or i9300 32gb.
Id blame twrp. I had nothing but issues with it. Flash back to stock and start over. It's now your only option.
There is a chance you've had sds (sudden death syndrome) and the nand could be corrupt. You fix it with a pit file via odin but ONLY as a last resort. Flashing pit files is a final throw before pronouncing it's death.
The stuff i use : https://drive.google.com/folder/d/0B4vTiHTBB629ZW5vQndpbjFnblk/edit
You will NOT find a pit file in there as i don't support pit flashing, because it is final. It either works or it doesn't. You will have to find one yourself if you need one.

Tried flashing PIT and was unsuccessful. Not sure if the data partition is intact and if so how to know its presence and the status of it.
Anyone solve this problem? I'm using N7100 and get this problem too
Tried to flash PIT with new odin version always noti "failed",
with 3.0.7, 3.0.9, odin freeze at "Get PIT for mapping..", I waited more than 30 minutes but nothing happen,
Tried to flash stock ROM but failed at "NAND Write Start!!"
Someone please help me fix this problem.
Are you using the original Samsung USB cable? Tried other USB cables and USB 2.0 ports?
oh, hi audit13,
Of course I used original Samsung USB cable, I changed some other cables, and USB ports(2.0, 3.0) to test, but nothing new.
I think no one can fix this problem, bring to cell store is the best choice
When flashing with Odin, which is the file that fails to flash? Maybe post the Odin log?

There shoot.bin file is not flashing because the memory is damaged, the ROM is not for the phone, the bootloader in the phone is newer than bootloader in the rom, or you need a different USB cable.

I flashed Roms with Android ver 4.4.4, 6.0.1, 7.1.1, and don't know much about bootloader, can you help me find my bootloader ver and find the way to resolve this problem. Thanks

Start odin, put your rom on pda, leave everything unchanged, make sure that repartition button is not enabled, start your phone in download mode, and wait until you see in odin message "added" , than click start. I wish you luck.

I'm a bit of a Noob but here's what I would try - go to sammobile.com and find the latest official ROM for your phone/area. Download it to laptop. Start Odin. Put phone into Download mode then connect it. Click PDA and find the download file and flash it.
The official file should have all you need, but if you did this previous with PIT clicked you will need to ask someone more experienced than me - I haven't had any experience with that.
Another thing you might try is DL Revolution ROM (search for ARHD 9) and follow the Superwipe instructions to get rid of all the previous possible crap. I noticed when I used it there was all kinds of format-type stuff happening as the ROM installed.
If flashing with repartition failed after first try and now your nand is improperly partitioned or not partitioned at all, than you must now thick repartition while flashing by Odin because in other case it will not even start nand write.
But to make it properly you need Rom with separate parts (3 file firmware: PDA, PHONE, CSC) and proper .pit file for mapping new partition structure to flash it.
I can give you a link for such firmware but only for XEO region. If you need another one you must find it yourself.
Rom:
https://hotfile.com/dl/158814567/30ec3bc/GT-I9300_XEO_I9300XXALEF_I9300OXFALEA_I9300XXLEF.rar.html
Proper pit for above firmware:
https://hotfile.com/dl/162097667/e5b3f90/mx.zip.html
Flash with those probably will be successful, but if your nand partition information was erased than there is a risk of data loss on efs partition. But this will be your future problem.
i9.0.1.3k galaxy imperator
I think op need to use a proper pit file along with some stock odin rom to resolve this issue
《spilled from dragon jellybean rom》
And run ODIN as administrator.
My first NAND write failed win W7.
I retried it it worked (but as an Admin)
I still have the same problem even when i run odin as an administrator
still got that pit partition error!!

Hi all,
I have a Samsung galaxy S3 GT-I9300. 2 days ago it crashed and won't boot anymore. The reason was can't mount /cache, can't mount system ... on recovery mode. I tried only the wipe cache option and it did nothing.
I started looking at the forum to understand how to fix it. I deciced first to make a backup of my data if possible so I downloaded Odin v3.07 and philz_touch_6.07.9-i9300.tar.md5. I read in another thread that we can manage to copy data from the phone using philz tools.
The problem here is that flashing philz tools with Odin fails all the time. Now I can only access the download mode. At boot, I have a "Firmware upgrade encountered an Issue..." I tried with Kies recovery but it failed too.
In my sdcard, I have no folder clockwordmode ! In download mode
PRODUCT NAME : GT-I9300
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD : Yes (3)
CURRENT BINARY : Custom
SYSTEM STATUS : Ofiicial
I am bit lost as there seem to be a lot of options in other threads. I don'y know where to start or what to do ? is it the PIT files to restore ? the firmware, the kernel ? the whole OS ?
Many thanks
Don't use pit file. pit is Last resort!!!! Get stock firmware from sammobile.com and flash it through Odin. Forget kies. Read about Odin before flashing.
You'll need to flash with a *.pit file, and the ROM downloaded from sammobile in order to restore your device. Use the *.pit file as the absolute last option to restore your phone. It will repartition your phone, and any power loss of either the machine you are flashing from, or your phone will render it a permanent brick.
Thank you
I am downloading the latest firmware from sammobile (1.1 GB) and Odin 3.09. There are specific instructions for Odin on sammobile website so I don't think i'm goint to mess it up. I will let you know if it did work for me.
I tried to flash the image from sammobile but it failed. There is no log I can read to understand why
Here is the name of image I downloaded I9300XXUGML2_I9300FTMGML2_I9300BVUGML1_HOME.tar

Shall I try with an older image (this one is the latest) ? or retry by messing the PIT ?
Nand write fail = motherboard replacement.
Keep trying to flash and don't give up but please leave pit till the end. Yes try three part recovery firmware and older firmware "not ics" SDS on ics firmware and you don't want that. But at the end of the day nand write fail means hardware failure.

However, I still have the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" at boot I removed the phone when I saw the message Removed in Odin. I am not sure whether it didn't let the process finish well or I did right. Any ideas or suggestions ?
I succeeded to reinstall the latest firmware and I got back the samsung logo at boot. However It still doesn't go any further and no recovery mode ... Is there a way to check the status of the system ?
Omg its alive!! Odin said pass! Just keep flashing that firmware till you get recovery and then factory reset.
Try the rescue firmware in general thread, follow the instructions exactly.

Hello
An update of my case. After struggling 2 days with NAND write fail and trying lots of firmwares... I succeeded to install CMW recovery tool. From that, I installed Cyanogenmod 10.0.2. I struggled to make it boot too as it looped on cyanogen logo many times.
Now I must confess that I am afraid of rebooting the phone as I thought it was dead :angel:
Hope it helps someone else :highfive:
Great feed back for others. and go's to show never give up flashing with Odin. Odin is a pain in the ....
Congrats :thumbup:
Hi,
I have a Galaxy S3 I9300, and one morning its just got bricked.
I can enter the recovery (ClockworkMod Recovery v6.0.2.7) and download mod.
when enter recovery I gets the errors:
E: can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
I can't mount anything. if I try to mount i get an error: "Error mounting /sdcard"
When tring to format cache Im getting the error: "E: format_volume make_extf4fs failed on /dev/block/mmcblk0p8"
thats why I think its internal memory damaged.
adb can recognize my phone BUT fastboot and SkipSoft ToolKit CAN'T. maybe bootloader problem.
I try many thins with Odin but got failed all the time.
I cant wipe anything because I cant mount anything.
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks in Advance all the help is appreciated.

@TalR: flash a 3part 4.3-firmware with PIT+file. I've only this german link
Is your device the international variant?. If so, try my stuff before flashing a pit file. Also try flashing an official cwr or stock recovery and flash again.
Failing that it is broken.

If you're getting the e:/ failed to mount in stock recovery then the nand is goosed. Time for a new phone.

the bar is blue
No, there is a 'window' on the bottom left of the app with text in it. What does that text say when you've attempted to flash the phone?. Need all of it, not just the result at the end.
The blue bar means the flash completed successfully but doesn't give any more info than that.

Sboot.bin is the bootloader so I presume that it is either locked or corrupt. I'm not sure if that is a pit error or not. You could try to find another file and hope it works but if you're absolutely sure the one you have is good then there's no point. You could try finding a stock rom that doesn't include the bootloader. Also flashing a pit file (only as a very last step) is an option but make sure it is the correct one for your specific model and region etc.
I hate recommending pit file flashing but in this case it could be viable from other reports around the site. Flashing a pit file is a last resort only, I cannot stress this enough.

Try using different USB cables and USB 2.0 ports.

ive only got the 1 usb port on my tablet
The sboot.bin is not flashing because the bootloader on the phone is newer than the bootloader in the ROM you are flashing, the ROM is not for your phone, and/or you need to try another computer.
It's unlikely that the bootloader is locked as AT&T and Verizon are the only two carriers I know of who lock down the bootloader.
i'm totally out of my knowledge zone here....i did do thison 1 of my old phones a few years back and some one wrote on a comment exactly how to make it stock again....but i'm buggered if i can find that post again....or thats even if the site still has that thread...can anyone point me in the right direction here please?

In use sammobile.com. The download speed for free accounts is not great but I usually start the download and do something else for a while.
