What error did you get?
Its unlikely that a script will cause so much problem.

Boot recovery loop?
What error do you get while doing wipe/data reset ?
Also flash a firmware of your region through Odin and then try wipe/data reset.

Try flashing a firmware of your region.
Are you sure you put the script in the right place?
And did you mess with the permissions or something?

So now you're able to wipe data/format ?
Flash in ddkq5 via odin and then install one of the custom roms available most probably razodroid v1 or creeds 1.5.
Listen, I have been flashing stuff into my device for quite some time now. Almost everytime I flash , I experience a bootloop and related stuff.
As long as you can access download mode and recovery mode, there's no reason to worry.
Whenever I suffer from such a problem , I keep flashing firmwares and roms built for my device and wiping data until I fix it.
Sent from my Galaxy Fit @ 801Mhz- RazoDroid

boot loops are pretty common.
just keep flashing roms until you find the one perfect for you.

could you plss provide me a link for DDKQ5..cant seem to find it..sorry..

Now all the cwm installation methods are through odin...but odin isnt detecting the fone
on recovery mode...it says errors like error loading mount/system (invalid argument)....i wrote some more errors earlier which r shown on data wiping and clearing cache
and i tried installing firmware from sammobilefirmware but it says installation aborted....i tried installing cm7.2 rc0...it installed but again the same problem exists...it sticks to the screen android written forever
wat can be done??

after rooting it was rebooting and there was the superuser rights....but after updating with rom it didnt start....and not does even now after i tried to install other rom

odin is not detecting it

r u connecting ur phone via downloading mode????? only then odin will detect ur phone and u can install custom recovery like cwm.....do this
* download beni.ops and Odin Multidownloader
(Beni.ops and Odin are the same files used, so you don’t need to download them again.
•Next, run Odin, and connect your phone to your windows computer. Odin should respond as detected. Then, select “Ops” as beni.ops.
•Select the recovery file under “One Package”.
•Do not alter any other option other than those mentioned, let them remain as they are.
•Click “Start”.
•Wait till odin completes flashing (might take upto 10 minutes)
Now, after your device has rebooted, restart into recovery mode to confirm that you have successfully installed ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM).
Note: Even though rooting is not required for installing CWM, it is recommended to do so before, since you can root only from stock recovery, and CWM replaces the stock Samsung recovery.
now u hv installed custom recovery to install custom roms... refer to this link for more help

From the main page of CM10 Alpha 4..if you have spent time reading it...
IMPORTANT! READ BEFORE FLASHING THIS RELEASE!
2. Once on this ROM, the most effective way of going back to any other ROM would be to repartition from Odin.
If you did not keep a copy of the original build.prop before you replaced it, you got nothing to go back to

yeah, the best way is to repartition and flash back to stock rom. after that, flash cfroot and then cm10 a4 first. when you have finished flashing cm10 a4, that is the time you can flash other roms based on cm10. hope i helped.

I have been trying to re-partition by Odin and go back to stock rom 2.3.6 DDLF, but Odin can't re-partition it. 1st time it flashed the stock rom but stacked on boot loop. I've even tried to data reset on recovery mood but its show- "E: format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev /block / stl10

Have you tried flashing first KPE stock rom (with pit, pda, modem, csc files)? If not, try flashing it first and then upgrade to LF2.

4.Advanced>>Wipe dalvik cache
5.format cache/data/system/sd-ext
6. MOUNT DATA

[Completed] Galaxy S3 I9305 With TWRP- Cannot Flash Stock ROM

Trouble Flashing Galaxy S3 I9305 back to Custom Rom
Hi
im wondering if i can get some help. A friend of mine put Pac Rom on my phone in May 2015 and me being stupid, i decided to put it back to stock a few weeks ago using samsung kies. little did i realise what im actually missing out on. so i have tried to flash back to Pac Rom and Carbon Rom and nothing is working. i can flash GAPPS but when i try to reboot, it only comes up as the S3 Stock boot. i cant access anything. i have wiped system, have wiped Dalvik Cache and Cache. i still have TWRP installed to use but nothing seems to work except GAPPS
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME?!?!:crying:
PS until someone can help i will use kies stock rom (LTE Telstra 4G Australia) I9305

Hi
Into TWRP, open the Wipe menu and select Data + System + Cache + Dalvik. Then flash the custom rom (zip file of PAC ROM).
Let us know if it works, if not you will have to flash a stock firmware through Odin: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/guide-odin-flash-guide-t1671969
Thank you for using XDA Assist.

Hi, I have followed the instructions and it says "E:Error executing Updater binary in zip" i tried again with another ROM and it says "E:Unable to open zip file
Error flashing zip

It seems you don't have a custom recovery, do you?

Not Anymore

So you have to install one before flashing a custom rom.
