Dead Infuse - Please help - Samsung Infuse 4G

Dear community members, my Infuse is dead I don't know why. It was charging over night and I just want to check the time when I noticed it was unresponsive. I though "I'ts just a SOD" but when I pulled out the battery an pressed the power button nothing happened, three finger trick and nothing...black screen no any light whatsoever even when I connect to my PC it is not recognized. Any Ideas?
I have Dman's Zeus 6 whit Script V6 SuperCharger.
I live in El Salvador and here is no any technical support...PLEASE HELP!!!!
I think it's just passed out :'( and if you think so also, I want to know if any of you have an Infuse for sale. I really love this phone because its big screen and wonderful performance.

Check the battery........if u have multi meter u can check it with that or the best way to check ur battery, Touch the battery pins with ur tongue and see if u feel anything.

That will short circuit the battery and then it WON'T work. Also 4v isn't enough to go across your tongue and feel it.

What will short short circuit ?
Just remove the battery and touch it with ur tongue u can feel the current mate.....don't jump on conclusion without trying it.

Thank you guys! I have tested the battery and is full charged (4.14V). Any other ideas?
I really appreciate your help and concern.

Guys I just opened the cellphone and the mainboard is fried
So now I'm lookin for buy the phone or just the mainboard.
Let me know if you have one for sale.
Best regards.

My phone died..
I was trying to upload my bootloaders to GB bootloaders using heimdall, and now my phone doesnt turn on.. no samsung logo too...
my battery is fine.. i tried the tongue technique..
I cannot use ODIN, as I cant go into download mode, or my pc doesnt detect it..

TIA

No... I gave it to BestBuy.. I will get a new phone in 3 days.. I have to install GB boot loaders first..
I want to install AOKP, without GB boot loaders i am getting rainbows.. So i want GB boot loaders first..
Heimdall technique failed for me..
I dont know what i have done, mistake..

I have done this but without install GB boot loaders...if you carefully see you can read and make almost everything with the rainbows CWM screen...I did it, tested it and then back to Zeus 6 which I think is the perfect ROM for my needs.
I'm too noob to messing around with boot loaders...LOL
I hope you get your phone back soon.

but to answer your question... i don't believe there are any guides for that. and it does, in fact, sound like a hard brick. i would look into replacing it. if someone on here thinks of something i didn't or knows how to fix this.. chime in. but if i were you i would just get it replaced.
and fyi... there might be flaming towards you for posting this in the 'dev' section versus the 'q&a' section. be prepared.

Wrong section
Wrong section!
r u able to go to bootloader ?.
seeing this as very tragic, I think there would be less people flaming. for it would be very difficult if you were on his feet. scary! hehe. but then, wrong section. is there a cut paste thing here?
did you try plug in charge and go to bootloader? it should vibrate if your charged.

Excuse me for wrong section.
In any case i can't charge this phone and go to the bootloader. always black screen.
Are you sure your battery is not dead? Try removing it / putting it back or try another battery.. There are known charging issues and theres a thread about it somewhere.
Aramis73 have you tried to remove the battery and keep it off for about 30 minutes, reinsert it, load it with the current and try to turn it on.
Did this just happen all of a sudden or did you do something you weren't supposed to?

thanks for your answer but the phone has no battery overnight.
this morning i reinsert the battery but the phone won't power on.
You should trade it in for a Samsung Galaxy S II, we have loads of people who don't understand forum sections, I'm sure you'll feel at home.

Question: How did you manage to brick it in the first place?

Sounds like you had the crappy recovery and got boned without a charge.
What you need is :
A. Another Sensation Battery to try and boot with.
or
B. A wallcharger for the battery itself alone.
Once powered back on you need to flash the modded Revolutionary CWM available here
So, after you have downloaded the above zip place it on the root of your SD and power into bootloader mode. It will ask you to update, agree & you'll be back in business in no time.
This is the best case scenario you can hope for.
Goodluck !

MIUI Questions, Tips and Tricks

Like it says folks.
This is my first MIUI ROM and so far I'm impressed by the features it offers. I hope that users with more experience with it will let us not so experienced folks in on some of the secretst of MIUI. So in an effort to keep the DEV thread a little cleaner(an idea I kanged from LUMIN) here goes.
My first trick if you will was figuring out I could restore apks straight from MIUI fiile manager. Sweet. Fully restored phone without using market at all!
Just found this and thought it might be usefll to some:
http://en.miui.com/a-10.html
Idk if you count this as a trick but if you install miui control you can activate app drawer
Also an alternative is alt drawer its a very simple drawer its cool and is customizable
Thank's aren't asked for but aappreciated
I wasnt aware we had a miui rom for the sgs 4g......
Ahh Raver's......ill be watching this closely lol......i loved miui on my vibrant

To set Google search to the search button instead of miui search
first if Google search is uninstalled then download it from the market then with a file explorer move google search apk from /data/app to /system/app then reboot your phone and when it boots click search and it'll be Google search
Thank's aren't asked for but appreciated

Can a USB jig be used to force download mode or do i need a JTAG?

Hi all.
First of all, already tried searching both google and xda and I get contradicting results that's why am posting it here.
I currently owned a dead/bricked skyrocket after a failed odin update. Can a USB jig be used to force download mode or do i need a JTAG?
Thanks everyone.

Kinda depends .. do you get any sort of responce from the phone at all .. vibration with no screen .. or nothing at all ?
If you have vibration without screen .. YES ..USB JIG will work.
If you have nothing at all .. NO .. will have to go with JTAG.

Thanks sir. Nope, i don't have anything at all. So, jtag is the way to go. By the way, what's the percentage of chances that it can be revived by jtag?

In my opinion, you should have a usb jig if you are going to flash roms. Get one and give it a try. Won't hurt.
From what I read, as long a you get someone that knows what they are doing, using a jtag should be almost a sure thing.
If you're getting no vibration or anything then a jtag is your only solution. A jig is not likely to do anything (though it's worth a try--and you should try making your own--it's really easy to do and they come in really handy anyways).
Assuming your phone isn't water damaged or was dropped hard (meaning it could be a deep hardware issue), then it's damn near certain that a jtag will fix it.
These guys can help you out: http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-galaxy-s-ii-skyrocket-brick-repair/
Check em out. If they can't fix it you won't get charged full price (take a look at their terms--there is a fee to diagnose it if they're unable to fix it but you wouldn't be paying full price if it didn't work out).

Help NS wont boot/ no charging icon/ no google icon

so my nexus is stock, but unlocked.
i cherged my nexus today an i read on a thread that to calibrate the battery it should be plugged at 100% and then u should turn it off then on and while it boots u should take out the battery. i did it. and now it doesnt boot, not even in fastboot.
some help?
Who said to pull out the battery while booting? It's a dangerous action you may brick your phone. Add I know a lot Chinese users of Nexus S had done this accidentally. Like rebooting without the battery cover when the battery fell off.
And unfortunately I didn't see anyone made their phone back, yet.
Anyway you can search for some threads for saving bricked phone.

Not exactly you can saved it. I find a thread on Chinese forum says use Ubuntu to unbrick a bricked ns. I think the thread actually comes from xda. Try to search here you can find it. Sorry I'm on my phone now can't do a search. All the best.

i know about that, its called adam tool. but that tool is useless if your screen doesnt even light up. i tried the tool and it didnt worked

you cannot fix a dead boot with any software/USB connection to a PC. A bricked/Dead boot can only be fixed by having a certain hardware called JTAG/RIFF. Check this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iejfuW7XcKA
its a bit high in price between 100-150$, usually repair centers have it and charge 50$ for a fix. I suggest taking your nexus to a repair center and specifically tell them that you have a "DEAD BOOT AND NEED IT FIXED BY JTAG/RIFF"

no touchscreen after ics. lg p920 version "not for sale"

A friend of mine gave me a lg p920 version not for sale. I was able to upgrade to ICS, but after updating the touchscreen does not work anymore. I ordered a new touchscreen, but it does not work. So the problem is in the bootloader. I used fastboot option EMU software version 1.25. Definitely missing the display driver. Does anyone know how to do?

I am not sure but I think the part in Slavik language about making the special cable has something to do with touch screen. I have never understood why the special cable is necessary but I know it has to do with touch screen, and that thread has been around a while, since O3D first was released. You would just have to try making one and see if it works.

You made the cable and tried flashing using it? Already? That was fast.
Sorry, I don't believe you.
Yeah I remember you. "Yes to everything." The thing is, asking here is going to do nothing for you. If you don't take action and try things for yourself, then nothing is going to work for you.

Well back a few months ago my thread was very busy with a lot of guys saying 'I have tried everything and done everything exactly and nothing works.' Usually it was because they were not reading and following directions carefully. It became irritating and I almost did not want to help anyone :banghead:... So I made the mistake of lumping you in with those guys.
Anyway, apologies and I am happy you succeeded
I am always amazed by the tenacity of our little 'club' here; I would have never thought of the battery. Heck, I did not know there is one.
