I want to start by saying I'm no noob, I've been rooting/flashing/moding phones for years now. But im stuck.
My phone randomly rebooted a few days ago and would not boot back up. It would show the intitial Samsung 9300 boot screen and sit there.
I pulled the battery and tried to boot to recovery, but it would just stay at the Samsung boot screen. I am able to get to download mode, but computer will not connect. I've tried windows and ubuntu. Fresh installs and previously tried and succeded setups. All saw and communicated with my co-workers s3, not mine.
The most frustrating part is that Odin will recognize it but not flash. Errors with "no valid pit file" if I use the .pit file and repartion, it will hang at setup connection and eventually say cannot communicate. Similar experience with kies, sees it but can't communicate. (Kies was not installed with Odin)
Am I hard bricked here? Is there any way to fix(billable repair from Samsung even?)
I know there was an un-brickable mod for the galaxy s1. Anyone know who I could contact to send my phone to them to try to work out and un-brickable mod for this if I can't repair?
Thanks in advance, my head is starting to hurt at this point
