is there any way out of this mess or the phone is bricked for good ?

If your computer recognizes your phone use ODIN to flash a rooted firmware.

At the bottom of the second post you will see using the ODIN method to flash stock firmware you will need to get to download mode in your phone which u already are.

Do u happened to have apps that control frequency like setcpu etc? They might be conflicting each other

Hello...is there anything one can do to get pc to recognize phone? It is a sgs3, rooted running domination, deviant kernel. Mtp driver is the problem. I have tried just about everything! Read page after page...uninstalled, installed kies drivers plug this plug that, do this from here, download this, download that....WTF? NOTHING WORKS...NOTHING?! Been throughout forums, bought several usb cables and sd cards. Odined (mobile version is the only way I could) back to stock unrooted. Last step is new phone. Thanks for your time. Sweet idea of a thread for people in dire straights!

Yes sir I have tried 5 different pc's. My daughters pc came closest to connection. It updated the mtp driver but all it shos is the phone icon and says needs trouble shooting. I do this and again it says update mtp driver. When I try to update this it says best driver already installed. Ready to give up at this point. Thank you for responding!

I messed up my phone BIG TIME. I have a N7 and the S3 and accidentally flashed the wrong rom on the S3. Now the phone doesn't even boot up, turn on, nothing?
At the very least i should have gotten recovery or even download but nothing. Blank screen.....
AHHHHHHHH
what to do?
hey guys i need some help please im so frustrated
ive flashed many roms before and troubleshooted alot of the issues on my own i am new to androids but i am learning so any help would be greatly appreciated
I was on the Toasty rom for my tmobile s3 running mediocre i was having random restart problems so i decided to give the rootbox vanilla rom a try i dl the rom and gapps flashed it then phone started up and said everything crashed pretty much and kept repeat pop up of set up failed and continued to do so.
So i thought ok bad flash ill wipe and re flash i get into recovery and factory rest/wipe and all then i go to install and everything is gone!!!
All of my internal storage all of my backups everything.
Now my computer wont recognize my phone when i plug it in and the only way to use my external SD is putting it into my blackberry then copying the roms over but it wont read in my s3 recovery.
So my question is how can i get a rom over to my phone is there something else i can try ?
thanks

If Odin will see the phone, you need to flash the newest version of CWM/TWRP. This will fix the inability to read the external SD card.
Everything kept crashing (when it was working) because you flashed the wrong gapps. You need 20121212 for 4.2.1.
Wow.. great idea for a thread and THANK YOU!!
Perfect timing too cause i need a little help please.
I am not new to android but new to samsung (WOW, didnt realize it would be so different from HTC ont he rooting and flashing side of things).
Long story short. I have a tmo s3. Bought it today and wanted to root. phone was working perfectly as it shoudl on stock rom unrooted. I downloaded the tool kit v7, used that to root adn install TWRP and rebooted into the stock rom that is now rooted. Still everything working perfect.
Here is what i did next and where the issues start.
Downloaded Synergy r290, went to recovery.
Wiped Cache, Dalvik, Data, and System (made a backup first)
flashed the rom and rebooted to system
However, nothing ever happened. I see the samsung logo, then all goes black and nothing happens (left it there for 10min)
I cant seem to get back into recovery holding vol up, home and power either and have no adb access to use that. I AM able to get into download mode which i know i can fix my problem here with odin, but i am just not sure what to flash and where.
Is there an easier way??
Thanks in advance for any help!
Ok, easy enough, but do i put that in the PDA field in Odin or phone?
This sounds MUCh easier than what i thought i would have to do.. thanks a ton!
ok i found the new version for twrp
but cant seem to find adb shell does anyone have a link for this?
