I'm having trouble with flashing the stock rom for the Samsung Galaxy S3 on Odin, as I get a fail everytime I try to flash the rom onto my device.
This comes up everytime I try to flash:

<ID:0/006> Added!!
<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..
<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..
<OSM> Please wait..
<OSM> I9300XXUGOK1_I9300NZCGOK1_I9300XXUGOK1_HOME.tar.md5 is valid.

<ID:0/006> FAIL!
<ID:0/006>
<ID:0/006> Complete(Write) operation failed.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)


The model number is a GT-i9300, and no stock roms so far have succeeded.
Any help would be appreciated !
 
Try using an older version of Odin, look for 3.07. Also make sure you have up to date samsung drivers.

Hope this helps!

I have used Odin 3.07 and my samsung drivers are up to date, Odin still fails to flash the rom.

On the S3 it's currently running TWRP version 3.0.2-1, it also asks me whether or not I keep it "System Read only" whenever I go in recovery mode. And each time I always choose the option of keeping it read only. I don't know if these has anything to do with Odin failing to flash the rom but might as well mention it.
