thank you for the quick response...i tried kc1 and kd1...it wont flash...also, my phone does not show up in odin in the com port for some reason...dont even know how it was able to repartition.

Un install the drivers. Reboot. Install the drivers from the bible. Plug the phone into a different usb port and see if it reads. Make sure you are in download mode

You will live if you can get into Download Mode.

Please help me!

I have been trying for days to update to the ICBIND GB rom with no success. I think that I have bricked my phone, I ended up having to flash back to kc1 and now it is just in a continuous loop of the galaxy s 4g screen! What do i do? I am so confused!
Try odining to kc1 from the bible. This one is only one file. Put it in pda.

i cant even get into odin what do i do?
Uninstall the drivers. Reboot the computer. Reinstall drivers. Start odin. Plug usb into a different port. Put phone in download mode and let the drivers install fully. You should see it.

[Q] i don't know what to do

i have looked around but i think i don't have someone with the same issue i was try to reflash again zeus, but after odin and then i unplugged the USB cable infuse still shows a usb connected status, whenever i try to reboot, it won't turnback on unless using download mode help please?
This happened to me before. I had to go back to stock froyo using Odin and start over. Once you do that you can Odin flash one of the gingerbread leaks.

[Q] brick phone (i think)

Hi all,
i have Rogers phone with stock AT&T ROM 2.3.6 not rooted phone.
UCKK3
in general the phone is working nice no issues, but i wanted to root my phone but here is the issues
SuperOneClick as all you know for know is not working so it's not an option right now
flash: when i'm trying to load into download mode i get different download mode from what i had before
Blue text
Android system recovery <3e>
tried to flash using this method i get:
E:signature verification failed
i google it, tried to fix it using root explorer but i need my phone to be rooted in order to fix it so not an option right now as well
Odin: when the phone is working Odin recognized my phone but i can't do any flash, when i'm in download mode Odin is not recognized my phone and i have drivers installed on my computer, so this method is also not good.
i wanted to restore my phone to Rogers ROM but i don't have the way to flash it to my phone...
so i'm not sure what status is my phone, even that it's working good no issues but just knowing it's brick need to fix...
please help...
thanks

Recovery is not the same as download mode. Turn the phone off, unplug the USB cable, then hold down both volume buttons and plug in the USB cable while holding them. Do not touch the power button.

I'm not an expert on this, but as far as I can see from the screenshot, the Re-Partition box isn't supposed to be checked. Try fixing that and flashing again.
If you get it working get rid if ROM manager. Oh and post this in the q&a thread instead.

Try that ! And don't forget to thank him ! Hold both buttons. Your gonna have to fix the drivers because heimdall uses different drivers than Odin so make sure yu fix that

You may need to repartition with Odin or heimdall. But to do that you need the pit file and a package with all of the partitions. that includes param.lfs dbdata.rfs factoryfs.rfs cache.rfs modem.bin and zImage.
Heimdall might also insist you use the boot loader files as well.
What ever package you are using check what's inside with 7zip or something that can handle .tar files and make sure you have all the relevant images in there before you select repartition. If that's all good and it still fails get a new USB cable. And if that fails use heimdall. its not too hard to use.
Also note that this is not a development thread. This section is more for releasing or at minimum did ussi g the development of ROMs kernels or software. Its not for help me threads. This is a q/a type thread. I'm surprised the self appointed forum police haven't badgered you to ask a mod to move it already.

1) how can i install a ROM
2) how can i install a kernel

Please help..
and moderators.. if I am again posting in the wrong section, I m sorry but im berserk at the moment so apology in advance....
In the second post of the qkster's heimdall unbrick you will find entropys dd kernel also packed in a heimdall one-click. Flash it and wipe data, cache & dalvik from your new red cwm.
If phone still doesn't boot, repeat flashes with both one-clicks.

Red cwm does not allow connection of USB . Do this. Odin back to stock. Reboot and when phone is on stock, root your phone flash cwm download ROM then boot in recovery then flash. What file specifically are you using to Odin?

[Q] I locked the phone? how I can fix this

Hi how you doing!
First of all wanted to thank the entire community of developers for the effort made to us! :good::good:
I tried to return to stock my infuse with odin and I was wrong to choose the phone, then select the file pda again . The process is not complete, then turning off the phone shows me that image. I can not activate the download mode and the recovery. The pc recognizes the phone but nothing happens even odin doesn't recognize
tanks and i apologize for my bad English.
Reinstall your drivers you can flash from that screen its like download mode.Try different cords and USB ports too.Good luck.
