You could try a Jig and force the phone into download mode. They only cost a couple of pounds off Ebay...
 
Nope. The phone could be completely dead but for the price of a jig, its definately worth a punt.
Good luck, hope you get it fixed :beer:
 
P.s. has anyone seen the same kind of zip the OP used for the international s3?
Seems like a handy tool (unless you have the knox bootloader)
 
alright my phone was fine before i bricked it but alright i hope jig works but if anyone else knows ways i can debrick my phone help would gladly be appreciated
