I did the same thing with my I9020T, I accidentally used the 4G one click unroot and it installed a 4G rom on my T-mobile NS. Now when I try to flash a stock rom for the I9020T it gives me a signature verification errror, I'm still trying to figure it out

I haven't tried it out yet but I have a theory. The recovery on my phone I realised is the default Google one. Not CWM so I'm gonna try and reflash CWM and try to install an i9023 stock rom.
It you have a comp around try it would you? I'm not getting home for a while :/

Go get the correct rom then rename it to update.zip move it to the root of your sd
Go in stock fastboot mode
Go to recovery hit the power button and when you see the the android question mark guy hold volume up and power
Go to apply update.zip and when your on your correct rom do this process to flash any stock rom
You should just flash the correct ICS rom ,good luck and please read read and when you think you got it read some more
BEST DAMN PHONE BECAUSE WE HAVE THE BEST DAMN DEVELOPERS!

Another way I can think of is to flash koushs recovery img in fastboot mode and restore one of your backups, hopefully you didn't delete them because there still there but you have to fastboot flash recovery recovery.img to see them

I tried using the default Google recovery to flash back. Hopeless. I keep getting the security error. I'm pretty sure Koush’s cwm will be able to fix it but I need a damn computer!

Solved. I flashed CWM. Flashed a rom(CyberGR) and a baseband(XXKB3) and I realized my efs was screwed. I restored my efs with Root explorer. And done. Problem solved.

I have the same problem too, and I used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396224 to boot using recovery mode. It works!

anyone else got boot loop ?

anyone have boot loop issues Im getting tons of help by well know people who have done it but I'm looking for someone who is stuck where I am. I can get into CWM and/or Stock recovery just cant get past samsung boot image
and I'd love to have a working phone by christmas that'd be great!

I had a similar issue after trying to install Sky Ice \cream Sandwich 5. I\CWM came back brick, so I had to redo stock and now I can't install anything from CWM. I'm at a loss now. Did you have a similar issue?

and yes similar issue

Yea I can get into recovery and download mode. I just can't flash anything. When I tried to do I get an error saying Brick and if I try to reboot it stays on Samsung logo. So right now I am back on stock with no way out.

Go here follow the instructions exactly http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342348

I have done that and I am actually running my phone with the stock rom just fine. I encounter a problem when I try to flash a custom rom or superuser.

You need to keep trying to flash the super user zip. It may take 4 tries or so.

And if your rooted and have cwm. Wipe data/cache 3 times then flash the rom. If you get boot loop after that. Wipe data/cache again. If still no good use odin to flash the stock recovery. Tar. Boot into that the wipe data and cache and reboot

Thanks for info, let's see if I can get this to work

make sure if you watch the vid to pay attention to the fact that he is flashing a CUSTOM rom on that vid and not the superuser.zip so if your doing the superuser.zip DO NOT wipe data/cache just
-backup
-install zip from sd card
-reboot
I copied the video to a T and got the bootloop. so remember DO NOT wipe ANYTHING for the superuser.zip

So you weren't trying to flash a custom ROM?
I'm having this same issue with the cycling boot screen. I will get past the Samsung logo and into the custom ROM logo and then it will freeze and restart. I have used ODIN to revert LOTS of times now. I don't have a problem running the stock, but I have the problem whenever I try to flash a custom ROM.
I'm looking to go custom to get rid of all the bloat and I want to change the icons at the bottom of the home screen.

Having serious problems installing a ROM

I have a samsung infuse on at&t. I want to install CM7. Here's what has happened so far:
- I copied the modified 3e recovery file into /system/bin
- I flashed CWM and rebooted.
- I got a bricked phone.
- I used GTG's unbricker to unbrick, eventually getting it to work.
- I ended up with a different android installation than I had previously. The market is weird, it's locked so I can't install APKs... I rooted and installed rom manager using adb but rom manager force closes immediately.
All I want to do is just install the CM7. I don't care if I keep my data, I don't care if I can recover to my old rom (that's already out the window.) I just want to get rid of this touchwiz garbage and get gingerbread.

Gtg unbrick again. Follow all instructions in infused. I don't feel like typing them out. Flash infused. Then flash cm7. Thank me. Finally get a different launcher. Launcher pro, go launcher. And others. Look at, what's the best launcher in q&a. Done

i see your having a serious problem posting in the correct section lol

What i did before to get it working is...
Unbrick with gtx unbrick / or unbrick to stock with root+ mod e3 recovery with Odin, phone restart into red recovery, flash cm7, reboot into recovery (it should be blue this time), reflash cm7, then Reboot system.
That works out for me in the past. Good luck and always do a nandroid backup.

But I don't understand how to do the first part. Can you give me more specific instructions? I'm looking through the big thread with all the roms, but I don't understand how I can install these roms with Odin. Can I directly install cm7 with Odin?

check out the first link in my signature line. it should help. gl

I flashed the one you linked with odin, and it booted into a blue recovery. Should it have been red?]
EDIT: and rom manager FCs instantly.
Update: I selected "reinstall packages" and CWM popped up!!! I'm doing a factory reset.

And I tried to install the compiled CM7 rom through rom manager, it booted into CWM and CWM did stuff, and then it rebooted to a samsung logo!
This is so much fun! Any thoughts on what I should try?
I assume I need to do the voodoo lagfix stuff?

I am following these instructions:

But the multiupload links are broken. How do I get CWM-community-kernel-v8.zip?

Play with cm7 for a while then come back to a real infuse based ROM like Zeus or Numas.

Stuck on bootloop from Clockworkmod 5.8.4.9

PLEASE HELP!! I have successfully rooted the device and was doing ok after flashing CWmod recovery 6.0.1 through E-Z recovery app and running Liquid Rom. I managed to be dumb enough to flash CWMod version 5.8.4.9 through Rom manager and when I rebooted my phone it got stuck in boot loop. I am able to get into CWMod 5.8.4.9 but I cannot restore my backup anymore. I can also data wipe and install a new rom, but it all just keeps going into bootloop and I cannot get past the samsung custom unlock screen. It first flashed that, then the android man pops up on the next screen like its loading something and then just keeps looping through the process. I did not use ODIN for any of this process and I dont know how to get myself back tothe point where I can reboot. Any help would be tremendously appreciated, because I'm dead stuck and in a panic. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Happend to me last night...
I made the same mistake... DO NOT download any recoveries from ROM manager. I found out the hard way... So the problem now is your phone is stuck using the recovery you downloaded. I am not sure of a quick way using that recovery if you can revert back but... My solution got me where I needed to be in order to get going again.
I had to use Odin to root to stock ROM. Yes when you wipe it will destroy your data but not your pictures, downloaded files, and other files you put on there. When I re-rooted with stock all my stuff for CM10, gapps, and the kexec CWM was there.
So use this guide...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28530394&postcount=1
Section 1!!!!! And follow the steps EXACTLY the way it says to.

This is why i have never liked rom manager...

The best solution for us to flash recoveries is ez recovery free from the market. I would use this going forward once you Odin back to stock

Starting my phone after 2 months

2 months back, I upgraded my phone to S3, so I kept my infuse aside. Today morning when I tried to switch on the phone, phone doesnt start.
It was perfectly working before I upgraded my phone.
Is it bricked? I am able to open CWM, I wiped cache, dalvik cache and factory rest through CWM. Is there any other way to get back instead of download mode. my last destination is download mode, go back to stock. but just checking, if there is any other way, before trying it.
TIA

yeah if you had adb access there is a chance you could identify the issue but the idea that you'd be able to correct it is iffy. but if you hadn't already done a reset you could potentially use adb to backup your data and apps before a reflash. anyway I think you will like the selection of jelly bean ROMs. the infuse might not be a galaxy s3 but with cm10 its not so bad.

Well if your phone wasn't rooted or didn't have recovery, how did you try flashing ICS, start over using a back to stock, then follow instructions to a t, on root, recovery, boot loaders, and finally go for a jb ROM there are a few very stable ones available.

I am using •Heimdall One-Click Back To Stock UCLB3 + Easy Clockwork Recovery Mod Install (FOR AT&T USERS) Last Updated: June 03, 2012
this to goto stock, then flash boot loaders.
After flashing boot loaders, I am trying to root the device using super oneclick, then I am stuck on the screenshot shown in my previous post.

If you have clockwork mod recovery you don't need to root. Find an ICS ROM and flash away. BUT FOLLOW ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE OP. Not shouting at you just emphasizing the importance of it.
