Hello, I have a working rooted S3 for months now. I notice that it was getting slow and freezing up a lot, so I try to factory reset it. Factory reset failed and everything that was suppose to be deleted is still on the device. I couldn't access the recovery boot menu for hard resetting.

Next, I try to flash the phone back to the way it was when I first bought using this youtube guide, not to change carriers. Sad, I did everything the video told to do, but that didn't work and it bricked my phone.

Oden Logs:

It seems my phone is soft bricked.

Note:
- Device can be turn on, but I get to "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select reocvery mode in Kies & try again."
- I tried using the kie software, but it i get stuck on "connecting..."
- I can boot into downloading mode.
- I tried using oden, but I still keep getting the errors same as the logs above.
- I can't boot into recovery.
- Google didn't help much

any help or suggestions is appreciated.

 

I can open oden on my computer, and boot into download mode on my device. How do i flash my stock firmware with it?

 

according to amazon.com, the device is running jelly bean, and the version is 4.4.2

anyway, problem solved. thanks to xda:
