[Q] SGS3 i9300 bricked

Hello!
My Samsung Galaxy sIII GT-I9300 got stock on the boot logo...i don't know how :confused:
I've been using my phone since 7 months, i even rooted it 5 months ago without any problem. I never changed its ROM, it's still running on ICS. When the Samsung official software notification came on my phone, i would postpone it to 3 hours later everytime. One day before my phone bricked, it would boot several times consecutively. Yesterday morning, my phone was fine, the alarm rung, i even checked my whatsapp, in the afternoon, i found it on the boot logo, i waited for the Samsung logo to appear but it would just stay there. I'm able to go in recovery mode, it says:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-I9300
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Official

It won't go any further, no buttons apart from the power button would work.
I tried to go on the Samsung updates website to look for a firmware but i could not find my country (Mauritius).

Is the the "Region" important while choosing a firmware or can i just choose a firmware for any other country?

I tried installing I9300XXEMC3_I9300NEEEMC1_I9300XXEMB6_HOME.tar.md5 on my phone through Odin but it would fail on the very first stage (see attachment). I guess this file was not right...
I tried downloading other OMEGA WinRar files, but it contained only folders and other stuffs, i could not find any file with .tar extension.

Can somebody please tell me how do i fix my phone?
Please send me download links of .tar.md5 files and instruct me how to install it.
I'll be very grateful to you :(
i don't mind loosing all my pictures, apps, songs and other files on my phone. I just want my phone to be repaired because i'll need it soon.

Thank you for answering.
