Samsung Galaxy S3

So what now? Return it for a new one? Maybe you should ask them for a Note 2, citing a lack of confidence in the S3 as your motivation.

Haha. I tried that on Monday when I RMA'd that last one. They did not have stock.
You can bet your @ss I will try it again this Monday.

Did a quick Google and I am not alone with this issue. Tried all the tricks suggested where some were lucky enough to get it working again. No go.

Oh well...

So far so good. Will let you know what battery life is like.

Your steps to flash are correct.
Have you made sure the USB drivers are correctly loaded (via Kies is perfect) and that the top left block is highlighted in Odin indicating Odin can see your phone?

What does the log say when you click start?
