Following on from a post in December by Mr. Pounder.
My Samsung Galaxy S3 has just soft bricked itself for no apparent reason. It now freezes at the splash screen. It won't boot into recovery mode (Volume Up, Power, Home) but it will boot into Download Mode (Volume Down, Power, Home).
So web wisdom suggests downloading the stock ROM (but from where? - SamMobile seems one option) downloading Odin and then using Odin to load the ROM into your phone.
So has anyone done this successfully?
The phone was originally from 3 but is out of contract, unlocked, and currently using a Tesco SIM. The only ROM I can find so far is for/from Vodafone, but I assume this is better than nothing.
Cheers
