[Q] Can't get my Infuse rooted - Samsung Infuse 4G

I've been trying for a few days and can't get my infuse rooted. I have the adb drivers installed, at least i think i do. When i check device manager it says its installed and i use kies to install the drivers. i tried superoneclick and it always goes unresponsive and when it doesnt it stops at step 7 waiting for device. i also tried DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT and it completes and reboots my infuse but no root access. if this matters im on baseband version uckk4 android version 2.3.6. im new to android btw.

Same Here
I am having the exact same issue. maybe someone on here will be gracious enough to help

Are try to install a custom rom or just wanting root??
If you are going to install a rom use this method...

This one worked on the first 2.3.6. May work on the newest one also?

Tony,
SOC doesn't work on anything beyond uckj4 gb.
you'll have to downgrade the build to uckj4 if you want to use soc.
the other methods of getting root on uclb3 is less conventional.

Easy Odin flash. You get a ROM UCKD5 which is rooted. And if you want CWM, it's just one easy step with Rom Manager. And then in the Infuse is all yours to play with.

Rooting?

I have a similar problem; but it freezes on step 6 instead
You can get root by simple flashing Dr honk's kg4 kernel via Odin.
Hope this helps!

go to the development section and read up happy flashing.
Random question, why do you have 2.3.3, Kf1 and 2 were the most unstable roms ever built for the gs4g. You need to use kh2. Kh2 is 2.3.4.

Could try downloading them from Samsung and seeing if that works. There is also the option of flashing through clockworkmod.

Kies Mini can install the needed drivers. Try uninstalling the ones you have then select "Install Drivers" from the menu.
If you don't want to try that route but want the stock 2.3.6 from Samsung (which is what Kies would install), then you can use ODIN. RaverX3X has an ODINable version of it here.

A rooted stock KB5/KC1/KD1 will work. If you're using a custom version of any of those roms you won't be able to upgrade.

[Q] Samsung infuse.

Hello all wondering if I fried my phone. It is rooted and I am trying to flash the sgs v2 rom. It has been on Samsung screen for thirty minutes now. Did I screw up? Thanks for advice...
yeah probably. where did you find the rom?
look for gtgs ultimate unbrick and that should clear things up
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using Tapatalk
Used the one from rom manager. I followed all steps provided. Sorry the gtgs v2 rom. Is the one I did..
Second phone I broke. I'm learning though... lol thanks for your help..
I have rooted this phone and the other. Also have rooted my galaxy tab 10.1 wifi and I am running the new ICS rom. Love it!!!!
sorry im not familiar w that rom but the ultimate unbrick will put you back at stock and you can start over. it can be a pita at times but it never fails

If the screen turns on, you're not hardbricked, use one of gtg465x's unbrick packages.

Is there a way I can flash Recoverytouch without odin?? Need help so bad . Thank you

Sent from my I727 using xda premium
y cant u run odin
No there isn't because the alternative would be to use stock recovery and that won't let you flash the other recovery.
It's like trying to format the hard drive while your using the hard drive.

Is odin safe? Im scared i might brick my phone
Sent from my I727 using xda premium
It's safe enough. Make sure you read the instructions and then it's as safe as anything.

I went from Rsd Lite on Motorola to Odin and Samsung its really easy. Just READ

I've used terminal to push the recovery to the correct partition. You can follow the terminal instructions on this thread

Yes there is, by purchasing it through ROM manager.
Some of us use macs which doesn't support Odin. I used to run parallels but my partition got corrupted so I can't run windows anymore because the disk was a 1 time install. Long story short Odin is probably one of the easier things to use. if u can't use it than figure out how to use terminal and adb. If you follow the instructions you shouldn't have to worry about bricking your phone
Sent your phone to me and ill do it for free

Do you have to be rooted to run rom manager? Because you flash a new recovery with it. You can download from app store.

I used superoneclick then Odin 3 and had no issues. I do wish that Heimdall would work as I always prefer to use apps from trusted sources.
ROM Manager and install the option for the T-Mobile version.

I would upgrade via kies to gb, then use the heimdall one click for antonx's kernel.
Im not sure if the sgs kernel flasher will work with froyo but if it does you need to make sure you are using a froyo kernel and not a gingerbread.

You can't use kies to upgrade to GB on rooted Froyo. Use the guide in the second link of my signature to upgrade to GB. Then look at the guide in the first link of my signature to root and use SGS Kernel Flasher.
