[Q] I I think I softbricked my phone.

Hello, I have Galaxy S3 Mini I8190. I have rooted my phone today to Pack-Man 4.4.2. There was no problem while I am using my rooted phone. After all that I decided to unroot my phone and I tried to do that with Odin. I did select Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time and I did install official I8190 4.1.2 firmware. My phone reset himself after installing and stuck on samsung logo. Is there any way I can fix? Thanks.

After you installed successfully a stock rom then you have to do a factory reset in original Android recovery (factory reset with original Android recovery will delete all your data also on internal storage). Or try to reflash the Firmware

I think my problem is I didn't do any wipes in teamwin recovery. I installed the official firmware with Odin and I got bootloop. I don't know how to fix it. I tried the solution examples in this forum and I still have bootloop. By the way I had Cyanogen Mod 11.0 and I rooted Pack-Man 4.4.2 with Odin without doing any cache wipes etc, and I got bootloop after installing it. I really appreciate helps. Thanks.

Yes you ned to wipe cache, dalvik and data when moving from one android version to another. Searxh for a "wipe"-file for i8190 to flash in odin.
Sent through time and space from my s3mini/CM11

Thanks for the help all, I fixed the problem by doing wipe caches.Great community

[Q] Please Help!. No root, no flash Custom ROM, No Flash Custom Recovery

First, Hi all, thanks for your time and help you can give me.
As the title says, the mini s3 (GT I8190) my sister does not allow me to root, flash a custom rom or flash a recovery. I've wanted to do all this because the phone has problems when trying to turn on wifi or bluethoot, none of the 2 work.
I have attempted all possible tutorials (I think) and none gives me the desired result. I'm no expert on the subject, but I have flashed several previously Smartphone smoothly and always try to follow the tutorial to the letter. I have an S3 i747 with CM Nightly and I have not had trouble making flash, root and others.
Another problem presented by the S3mini is that the computer does not recognize it. No it might be.
Things I've tried:
1) Flash a custom ROM (Maclaw + Odin): It did not work, stayed in bootloop. Nothing worked, It do not take the TWRP recovery.
2) Flash recovery separately Neither worked.
3) Root with Odin: It did not work.
4) Installer CM: I could not download the app for CM and the computer does not recognize the phone.
If you could please give me an idea of what is happening and how I could solve it would be very grateful.

It is a 8190?

Forget completely put the phone model. Yes, it is a GT I8190.

If it had some problems with stock before, maybe it has some borked hardware?
I would try to get TWRP (from novafusion) working before anything else. Where did it go wrong? Maybe try with heimdall - it worked very smoothly for me. If you have it installed, does "heimdall detect" report a device and "heimdall print-pit" print the partition table?

hi. i have na s3 mini too but its lock sim and no root.
doing root and flash it with odin does unlock it??
thanks

Hello. I'm sorry but actually there's no lollipop for our device, however there is cm 11 with kitkat 4.4.4 but it isn't 100% stable. There's also cm 10.1, the android version maybe be a little old but it's more stable.
To flash this roms, you need this CWM
And for rooting, I think the easiest way is using Cydia Impactor

Boot loop..
Hi. I got a Samsung GT-S6012 that keeps rebooting the Samsung logo and doesn't start. At first I got the phone stuck on the very first logo with Samsung model name. So I did some search. Downloaded Odin and latest 4.1.2 official firmware for that phone model flashed it. Everything worked for a few days but then the battery ran out and phone shut down and when I turned it on again it got stuck on the very first logo and nothing. Then I flashed the same firmware again to get it running and when I checked it the flashing didn't really fully wiped the internal memory cause the data in it was still in tact. So I thought I need full wipe to fix the phone. So installed custom recovery, rooted it and flashed CM 10.1 on it. It was running very smooth everything seemed okay but I wanted the stock rom. So I went to recovery wiped whatever was possible and flashed the stock firmware in download mode again. And now I got stuck on the second Samsung logo and it keeps rebooting it self. I recognize that I cannot wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache in now stock recovery cause it gives me android logo within it a red flag. The wipe cache supposed to fix boot loop problem but it's not an option for me anymore. All I can do now is just enter Download mode. I'm downloading 4.0.4 firmware and gonna try to flash that one see if it works but I doubt. Can anyone suggest me a way to fix it? Please I'm really desperate.

S3 mini locked in startup screen

Hello, I have a problem with my phone and I need some help.
I tried to install Kit Kat 4.4.4 using recovery mode (CWM), the install process ran smoothly but it had some issues so I tried to install Lollipop 5.1.1 (CyanogenMod 12.1) 20150412 stable from novafusion using TWRP (v.2.8.1.0) but apparently I made some mistakes, I used the Advanced Wipe tool and deleted (Dalvik cache, System, cache, data, internal storage) after this I can not install any moded ROM.
The phone stays on the "Samsung Galaxy s3 mini" screen.
Can somebody help?
My phone model is GT-i8190L

looks like you need to head over to http://http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/, login & d/l original firmware for ur fone & region, then flash via odin, & start root,custom flash again.............carefully this time & be sure to make full nandroid backup before flashing so you can restore if problems occur......good luck & post again if you need more help

Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE i-9305
Hello everyone, first post and I need help :crying::crying:
Today I tried backing up my rom on CWM recovery but it was always getting stuck on "Generating MD5 sum"
So I decided to switch to TWRP. I downloaded the TWRP app from the play store. I picked my device, picked the latest
version and downloaded. Then the app asked me if I wanted to reboot into recovery (something like that, I don't exactly remember what it was) and I pressed yes. The phone turned off and rebooted however I don't know what happened but now my phone is starts, shows the [Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE i-9305] screen for about 3 seconds then goes black and again shows the [Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE i-9305] screen repeatedly. I don't know what to do :crying:
My phone is rooted with CM11 flashed. So I can't give it in for a repair as they would be able to tell if I am rooted because of the KNOX warranty void: 1 thing :crying::crying: What can I do now??
NOTE: I can't reboot into recovery, only bootloader.

can you reboot into downloading mode ((home+power+volume-)?
if yes, with odin, try to flash again the recovery (i prefer PhilZ recovery on my i9305) and later try to backup your phone.
