ODIN finds device and loading of stock android Fails

[Chris Lazarides]

I had the most stable rooted S3 with MIUI ROM till I downloaded it seems a 'buggy' evernote app from the google playstore which rebooted the phone into TEAMWIN(and couldn't go any further). Could not go into recovery mode so tried to go back to Stock Android to salvage the situation. The result was Odin would fail, thereafter it would not even go into Teamwin for recovery.

So basically I am stuck with a phone that freezes on the Samsung logo, and even in download mode it detects the device, samsung drivers are installed, with the right stock android firmware but Odin fails!

Any ideas or am I basically sitting with a bricked phone!

If Odin fails the only thing I can think of that might recover it would be a JTAG service.

Thanks GSDer. Are you confident Mobile Tech can fix this problem as I am in Europe and if they can fix it, the wait will be worthwhile.

Anything else I can try myself?

I have not used their service, and I can't say for sure that this will work - it's the only alternative that I can think of, besides sending it to Samsung for repair.

I'm sure you can find a JTAG service somewhere in Europe - you should try a search for that and perhaps you'll find a place where you can discuss this issue with someone directly. Good luck.
