*sigh* Please, I need help - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I have a SCH-R530C Samsung Galaxy S3 phone that I got from my sis as a mini-computer (better than lugging the laptop around). I woke up last weekend to find it softbricked: it loads to recovery and gives me the android robot with a red exclamation mark for a moment before rebooting and giving me a "Power Reset of Unknown Upload Mode" error. I looked up information, found Odin and the right firmware to flash: Nothing happened; it gave me Fail no matter what, even if I load it with laptop. Nothing CAN flash on here, which is puzzling to me - I keep getting Fails.
Alright, so what now? I am at wit's end. I don't think the phone was in USB debugging mode, and I am banging my head every time a help site mentions the procedures need it there to work. :crying:

Alright, tried flashing CWM recovery - nothing
TWRP - nothing
Tried Hero's fix - nothing
Heck, even tried ThePagel's fix on a lark - nothing
Had Lrs121 give me a pit file of a the SCH-R530X and tried to flash with firmware, got this:

need some help. Soft bricked i925 verizon note 10.1

So i recently rooted my i925 with this universal method...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2403230
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCBLOhWavT0
Then I decided to try and run the casuall "Jailbreak" software to get a custom recovery and unlocked bootloader and i just checked "I did it" during the root portion since I already was... and now I'm soft bricked. I can only get into the download mode and tried flashing with odin but no luck might be doing something wrong... Also tried following the cyanogen instructions which involve flashing a cwm recovery in download mode but still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! If I hold power the screen will just flash the download mode screen on and off. I pulled the back off and pulled power. No difference.
Any ideas guys? This is the first time I've bricked anything since I've been here and it's got me pretty worried...
Still stuck is anyone has any ideas.

I would retry ODIN with the original VRAMK1 firmware available from sammobile.com. If that doesn't work tell us what error you are getting.

Maybe try Heimdall commandline. You can flash individual pieces.

Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy!
Attempted to follow the guide here on my old Infuse to breathe some life back into it, but I can't get it to work. Installed the drivers through Kies, Odin detects my phone in yellow. I follow the guide to the letter, but after flashing 'reset' in blue and getting the green 'pass' my phone simply doesn't reboot, nor can I boot it manually. I've removed the battery a few times and it doesn't change the situation. I can still boot into download mode with no issue and have tried flashing a few times, but I'm having no success booting the phone after Odin is done, nor can I get into recovery mode.

I never tried this flash before, but I do have a couple questions before proceeding...
Is your phone AT&T or Rogers?
Are you able to get back into download mode (that is, by method of device fully turned off, holding down both Volume Buttons and inserting the USB cable)?

AT&T, the model is I997. I can still get into download mode, but I can't boot normally, nor into recovery mode (by holding volume up + volume down + power button; Samsung logo never appears). I used the included version of Odin with both the UCLB3_Unbrick_1.1.zip and UCLB3_Unbrick_root_1.1.zip files on the linked thread (I tried both).

I always recommend this one for AT&T (could never try it myself, as I was a Rogers user), but you may have more luck with this (option A or D).

Tried this a few times and it keeps failing. It'll get about 1/3 of the way there and then my computer will make the 'device disconnected' noise and Odin will fail. I left it in download mode, plugged in, without attempting the download to see if it was an issue with my cable or port, and it didn't disconnect...it seems to only be happening when I attempt to flash the md5.

For some reason option D is taking an unreasonable amount of time to download (it's been over an hour now), so I had initially skipped it and tried options A and C, with the same results. I'll report back once I am actually able to get option D downloaded.
Same problem with every option. Progress reaches about halfway, then fails.

[Q] Firmware update failed and failed recovery with Kies

Hello,
I have a problem.
I used my Samsung Galaxy GT-P6800 until yesterday.
Yesterday I downloaded the latest version of kies and I installed it.
When I plugged my tablet to the program kies, this told me that there was an update available. So I accepted the upgrade.
Unfortunately not been successful upgrade. So I tried to make the recovery of the old firmware. I receveid again an error. Kies tells me to call the service center.
Now I am a tablet that does not turn on and that only goes in odin mode by holding down the power button plus the volume down button.
It should not be in recovery mode because if I try to press the power button for 10 seconds nothing happens.
How could I resolve the problem?
My tablet is not rooted.
I don't know what is the problem because doesn't compare the code error.
I do not know if it depends on the driver. I do not know if it depends on something else.
But I would like to re-use my tablet. Help me, please.
well,
I have used Odin to install CWM 6.0.3.0.

ODIN fail: NAND write fail

I factory reset my Samsung Grand 2 then charged it. When I saw my phone it was updated in kitkat. I accidentally hit the install and reboot. But after that, it stuck in logo screen. I've tried to wipe data, cache and everything. So, I flash it with odin with correct latest firmware. But it keeps on failing and appears firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again. Ive tried to fix it with Kies but there's no chance. I also brought it to service center but they said it keeps on failing and the program cant enter.

[Completed] [HELP] Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 (AT&T) wont boot

Hello XDA people.
My mom has a Samsung S4 (I337) and (according to her) suddenly died (supposedly it turned off and she tried charging it for a while but it wont turn on). After some trying to turn on the phone I got it to say "System software not authorized by AT&T has been found on you phone" and then it turned off again and it wont turn on anymore. Recovery mode wasn't accessible but download mode was. So I downloaded the stock 4.4.2 android rom for the I337 and flashed it with ODIN to the phone, and I got success in odin but the phone got stuck trying to enter recovery mode with the blue message "Recovery booting" (and since then that happens everytime I try to go into recovery). Phone won't boot, it gets stuck at Samsung S4 logo and I still can go into download mode.
If I try to reflash that ROM Odin will fail.
