SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 GT-I9300 still stuck on loading screen after Kies and Odin.

My phone died when I was filming on altitude (don't know if it has anything to do with it, but why not mention it). When I started again, it went until the initial SAMSUNG screen, and that's how far I've gotten in the subsequent 7 days.

I have tried the following already:

- Removed battery, simcard, pressing the startbutton and lots of clicking and restarting.
- Bought a new battery because I thought it might be insufficient power to start the phone.
- Went into 'Android system recovery <3e>', and 'wiped data/factory reset', and 'reboot system now' (on the bottom it does say in red letters 'E: failed to mount / efs (Invalid argument)' but I don't know if that's normal or not).
- Installed Kies, but my phone keeps "connecting", without ever being able to connect to Kies, also after troubleshooting.
- Installed from 'samsung-updates' the firmware package for Netherlands (Belgium is not there) on my PC, and downloaded Odin 3.
- While running Odin 3, it connects my phone (after it takes some time to install the USB drivers to connect my phone) and I also can install everything and get to the green "PASS!" screen. At this point, in the textbox below of ODIN it has said "RES OK !!" then "REMOVED!!" and then "Remain Port.... 0" and then it ends with "All threads completed. (succeed 1/ failed 0)".
- At that point my phone has tried to restart and is still stuck on the SAMSUNG screen.

My question is: What can I still try?

Welcome to Android Central. I am going to be honest, I am not sure what has gone wrong. Flashing the different region might be part of the reason for the trouble, but maybe contacting Samsung and seeing if they can help?
