managed some soft bricks in how not to root. Odin up & waiting if a dev comes up with it
I am also waiting for the root!
not sure if it would work, but im working on a rom right now that is pre-rooted, but like i said i dont think that it will work,, i hope someone makes a cwm recovery soon
I'm currently trying to create a prerooted rom the way I did it for my tablet.
Extracting the system image from the Update package was easy, currently I'm trying to mount the syste,.img to set the rights and add the SU binaries.
If this works out, how can I flash this ROM?
With KIES? Or Update.zip on SD?
Is there an Update mode, and how can I get there?
edit: Okay... I was able to mount the System.img, but this is not that straight forward as in the img of my tablet.
I found a lot of folders, but no .apk, known folder or something I could work with.

Have you tried adb shell?. I am not allowed to post outside links, but if you type "londatiga net/it/how-to-use-android-adb-command-line-tool/" in Google, you will get the appropiate link
Could you explain with some derail how did you unbricked the phone?
Thanks a lot

I have posted here for help!
Hi guys, I'm pretty new here.
I was wondering if there is any official 4.1.1 Jellybean for SIII Mini, 'cause my phone is pretty dead at this moment. I tried to download from official servers some packages , and use them with Odin ...but the phone is still at the main screen " Samsung Galaxy S III Mini GT-I8190 ". Any ideas how to manage with this ?
Or can I use another firmware, as 2.3.4 Gingerbread?To downgrade the device just to work?

Do you tried to get some of this firmwares:
samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I8190
and installing with:
trickytweaks.com/i8190xxaljl-4-1-1-jelly-bean-update-gt-i8190-s3-mini-how-to.htm
Yes, I have tried with my provider's firmware , but nothing happened. Still at logo screen. I have also tried with other firmwares, but still at a dead end. Right at this moment I'm flashing my phone again, hoping that something will change.
Had it stuck by flashing custom boot.img. Solved it by flashing 1 file image from samfirmwares as pda in Odin 1.85 default settings
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app
I have succesfully extracted the PIT file from my S3 mini with the Heimdall software, but I don't wanna use it to flash with Odin because I think it's pretty messed up. Can anyone provide me with their Galaxy S3 Mini PIT file, hoping to rescue my dead phone ?
no boot into recovery mode and wipe data/cache that should get the phone booting again, esppecially after flashing firmwares with odin

Well, if the recovery mode can be accessed with Volume Up + Home + Power, then I can say that my S III Mini won't get into it.If I press these buttons the phone just gets on, and remains at Samsung Logo. So that is why I'm asking for a PIT file, 'cause I can't get into recovery mode to erase all data, so I can flash my phone again using Odin.
I have tried all official firmwares and still nothing. I guess my SIII Mini partitions are a little (or a little more) messed up, and I need to use Re-Partition from Odin so I can revive my phone.And to do this I need a PIT file from a working phone.
Or there is another way to get into recovery mode, excepting Volump Up + Home + Power?
Thanks for the answers.

Well, the NsPro tool requiers a box, that costs 170$. The program is useless without that box. I have downloaded it and doesn't work without that box.Another solution is by using a JTAG box, which does the pretty same thing, but again, it is expensive.
I was thinking that if I'll repartion my phone it will resolve the boot.img file, because it's in the "softbrick" at this moment.
helpline
Have you tried emailing or phone SAMSUNG`s helpline, they might help.
Write this image file whit odin 1.85 and voala you phone revive.
Pls use tanks buton
That param.tar file I saw it is for S II . Does it work for a S III mini too? Aren't 2 different devices?

I also have flashed these:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2157105
there was three files did you mean that?
that didnt worked, still bootloop nothing has changed.
File WIPE.tar was for i8190? Can I have logs from ODIN? Try flash another version ODIN or on another komputer. You have original cable?

Try to flash a recovery like TWRP from Novafusion page and then Try again to restart to recovery. Download a custom rom like CM 11 and then flash it.
Winch rom are you flashing via Odin?
So i went to flash [ROM] Looper_XB but i made a mistake and flashed 5.0.2 when i needed to flash 5.1.1..Now i have made mistakes in past and would usually flash stock firmware in odin to my phone but this time it is not working. i downloaded stock firmware from here > LINKTOSTOCK. I get a error in Odin. i can go into download mode and into TWRP. I dont know what my next step is.. yes i know how to use a search bar.....i thought maybe i could flash the correct 5.1.1 Looper rom onto my phone through TWRP but i cant get my phone mounted to laptop to where it will let me transfer any files that way.. i can view all files but once i go to transfer the file over the phone will basically disconnect...In need of some help here guys.
Also was searching around and saw something about using kies , which i downloaded and installed but my phone wont connect. I only get the samsung galaxy screen and TWRP and Download mode like i mentioned

As a last resort you can always download either Samsung Kies or Samsung Smart Switch software and restore your device with the original firmware. You will need your model and serial number. You can get your s/n by booting into download mode and then pressing the home button.
Sometimes Kies will not work on the first couple of tries but it eventually should. If it still doesn't then try Smart Switch.
Once you have restored your device you can start from scratch.
Hello. Can you help me? This is what happens:
I tried to upgrade my SGA into Gingerbread 2.3.6 ( my SGA is froyo 2.2.1) . I install ClockWerkMod 5.0.2.6 in my cellphone. It was installed successfully, but after that i go back to the recovery mode, then i stuck in the Samsung Logo and i don't know why, (my cp is already rooted).
I can go to download mode, but the problem is, 1 month ago, after installing CWMode, i decided to factory data reset to fix the problem in the recovery, and now , i cant open my SGA, i tried to flashed it in the Odin, but it says "fail", and now im so nervous, i don't know what to do, hope someone help me with my problem. Thank you

Factory reset won't recover you from recovery problem
Try:
Remove the battery for 5-10 mins. Then reboot
Code:
adb reboot
from your pc in recovery/download mode
I think that there is a problem with CWMode. I dunno what is that.
Also you need the following to flash stock ROM only on Samsung Galaxy Ace:
The files I have attached(Unzip them).
Proper Gingerbread ROM for your region(I live in India so I have Indian ROM)
Download from SamMobile
In Odin select OPS Cooper_v1.0.ops
Select all the options except Debug only.
Click 'One Package' button and select the ROM file(it is generally .tar.md5 and India's one is 238MB)
Click 'Start'
Best of Luck
Hi guys,
So after many combinations of uploading custom roms to my phone I've failed. I've tried to install UltimateROM on stock rom but before that I had to install TWRP/CWM, and I installed this file (it's attached below), so it only destroyed partitions in my phone. Right now I can boot into stock ROM but everything seems to shut down in a while. Also I can boot into recovery and download mode. However in recovery mode phone can't find /data /cache and something else. I've also tried to install stock rom again using ODIN, but I get a message "There is no pit file". So my stock rom is a I8160XXNB1_I8160OXXNB4_HOME.tar and my phone model is GT-I8160. (Download link for this faulty modification "https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XZGuwn9vJD8mUMH0CP2czM8JjY_MjoYa"
Please help guys, and thanks in advance !
