Wipe user data and cache and reboot. Do you boot into UCLB3? If not, the flash didn't complete and we have more troubleshooting to do. Also, let us know your goal. Which ROM do you want to run? Rooted stock UCLB3 or something else?

I always take that part for granted...for the users....thx jscott...
After much troubleshooting i finally got gtg's stock froyo to boot, then got (jscott30) your 2.3.6 option C to boot, then flashed Aeon 1.3.1 and now all is back right. I seriously thank you both for the help.

One last cry for help before I honestly take this phone in my garage and go to town on it with a sledge hammer!!!!
I bought this used Infuse 4G (Rogers). But I can't do I clean wipe to get rid of the previous owner's information, this google account is driving me crazy , it keeps trying to login to the guy's account and putting in my own google account doesn't do any good either because it still asks for the original account's password when i try accessing the market. So, a clean wipe/factory reset would be the ideal thing to do i believe. A traditional Factory Reset through Setting>Privacy>Factory Reset would just freeze my phone on a multi-colored screwed up screen and nothing happens until i reflash. Trying to wipe through ROM Manager (manual management) also does the exact same thing.
I am currently on this rom ..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1193927 .... Its the only one that works besides the AT&T 2.3.5 (but i can't root that one).
Anyways, people have suggested gtg_ultimate_unbrick, but all that does is freezes my phone on the black samsung screen.
Please guys, I know this can be done .... But I'm not exactly an expert, as a matter of fact, I'm a noob to Android phones.....lol
where does it freeze when you do the ultimate unbrick. Did it simply not boot after you odin'ed back to stock?

If you are rooted you can't and on a ron you can't do a manual factory reset. Boot into recovery wipe factory and cache and dalvik then flash a rom or Odin back to stock then you'll be good

Can you boot into CWM? Because if your on a leak, you need a kernel that will give you CWM... I replied to your other post and you didn't even reply back.

Odd that you still have there account after flasHing roms unless you did a backup and restore with cwm or titanium.
Have you tried a factory reset from settings> privacy? This will wipe the internal sd card so backup any media or other files on it to the external one.

Stool of this was very weird, there is no reason a Rogers infuse should have multi color junk or broken recovery. I'll bet the last owner tried to flash something they shouldn't have. Glad it got to a point that you can use it though. Hope it is the last issues you have with it.
Hi I had odin stuck at setup connection... it was like a few mins so I unplugged then I tried to get into download mode but it said something about kies so i flashed hemidall one click and now im back to stock just wondering why it happened? I don't wanna attempt again without knowing the problem, I had all the files (4) all loaded into odin properly in the right locations why???
i was so scared i thought i bricked my new phone!!
It happened because odin is very finicky... The good thing is long as you're comfortable with the one clicks you can do anything you were attempting with odin

That seems like a very round about way... Just one click bhud's package with cwm, reboot into recovery, factory reset/wipe/format everything (expect sd card), flash vb-final (per OP), (after the 10 min. soak in) flash lightning

Do a search for the guide on Heimdall that bassmanjames wrote. It is thoroughly written. Or try again with ODIN.
FIXED- I found the stock ODIN Rogers file rooted and that got me going.
The unbrick ROM does NOT work for ROGERS phones.
Hello Everyone,
Problem: Infuse will boot up and you see the ATT screen then 2 seconds later it sits on the SAMSUNG screen.
I have tried just about everything posted. I even tried the Infuse unbrick Odin pkg.
I CAN get into download mode. I can flash with ODIN. But upon reboot the phone goes back to the SAMSUNG screen.
How did I get here?
I had was running ZEUS. I had the issue with ppl not hearing me unless I turned speakerphone on and off for every call. I did a master reset. I had an issue with something else so I tried using a CWM flashable file which caused the problems needing the master reset.
I have tried many things but I am stuck.
I am trying to get an ODIN kernel that is moded like the V8 community kernel BUT all the links are broken.

I think I can get it working again with a kernel that will convert to ext4.
I can not get into the phone to delete or change the voodoo lagfix.
It seems that the boot partition is not working right.
I can flash with ODIN the unbrick file and it will install but upon reboot still stuck at samsung screen. I can NOT get into recovery either.
WTF? Did I make a brick?
Someone has to know how to fix this

Dude.. if you can't figure this out with those links that I posted, then I don't think that I can help you.. I can somehow manage to odin myself and bring myself back to a rom with those files and the respective rom. And I know that there are other people that can too... good luck bro.. I'm done..
Edit: May I suggest this?
Edit 2: Actually, if you need the 3e recovery file. I just remembered that you need that too. Haven't seen a mirror posted for that. Maybe that is the element that you are missing? If it is lemme know..
It is really quite on xda today
Flash any GB kernel that's rooted, but uncheck reboot.
Then try to boot to recovery.

I am well aware of using this stuff. I flashed many phones and tablets hence why I like Samsung.
Yes, can you provide me the 3e Recovery ODIN file.
That would be a good thing to try.

I can only use ODIN files because I can ONLY get into download mode. I can NOT get into recovery to use any CWM files.
I have been trying to find ODIN kernel files but the ones available the download links are broken and I pm'd the OP as well as others that need the files but still no luck yet.
Can someone please post an ODIN kernel for me to try.
Edit:
Just to be clear I have now flashed the Unbrick ROM several times. It will load up and install. I get a green pass in ODIN but on reboot I see the ATT screen then stuck at the Samsung screen.
I have started to flash odin kernels from my captivate and tablet. They do get past the ATT screen and no Samsung screen but all I see is grainy stuff all over SO that tells me that changes are being made. I just need to try with an INFUSE ODIN kernel that might convert to ext4. I think that will solve the problem.
btw- thanks for the help...I am just ticked trying to get my phone to work.
I just need one damn file or small command to wipe the phone so it will take the stuff we are trying to push.
FIXED- I found the stock ODIN Rogers file rooted and that got me going.
The unbrick ROM does NOT work for ROGERS phones.
I went through the same thing about a month ago on mine... I eventually found the same file you did... it was a pain and since then if I've bricked I've flashed ultimate unbrick then flashed stock Rogers and it resolves my issue... I keep both saved on my computer now

Simple Fix...
Use. GTG's ultimate unbrick.
Download http://www.mediafire.com/?i57410xodydx5l1
Follow the easy steps.
This will bring to how you bought the phone.
SECOND to all with BLACK screens.
Turn off the phone using power and volume up and down.
While plugging in the phone to the USB. Release power button.
This may take multiple tried, but you will get the download screen eventually.
Its all about timing.
YOUR PHONE CAN NOT BE BRICKED.
The down loader is not on the internal memory,
it is on a FLASH ROM separate from everything else.

People need to remember that not everyone is using AT&T Infuse, gotta clarify that before posting guides.
And yeah keep the stock rogers rooted rom on your desktop, comes in handy for a quick return to stock if anything goes wrong.
i downloaded infused 2.3.3, flashed it with cwm, and it got stuck on the boot animation, the X, i re-flashed, pulled battery, even factory reset and flashed, nothing, getting stuck, im really scared
EDIT- now its stuck at the samsung logo, anything!?! please!
Search this forum for GTGs ultimate unbrick. This will bring your phone back to stock.
or hemidall flash back to stock rom, unbrick it and flash to any other rom of your choice.
so i took it to at&t, they re-flashed the stock rom, but now when i turn the phone on, it ONLY boots into e3 recovery, not the auctual 2.2 rom, any help?
You need to flash the unbrick by gtg to repartition your device... that's what has happened... some how your partitions got jacked and its not letting you get past the kernel screen... its all good...your phone is not bricked... and definately don't take it back to att...gtg unbrick....with pit...factory reset from phone... settings/privacy/factory format...then you should be good

Make sure you thank him.
sounded like you need to spend some quality time with my how to guide.
@OP:
I used Infused 2.2.3 for months since its inception before I switched to Zeus. I would recommend moving to one of the later roms like Zeus or Revelation or anything else since they have the later android version, and pack in more features too.

Anyone?
And you're sure you're in Download mode, and Heimdall shows the device as connected?
The picture shows it in download mode and some progress on the screen..
I've had a few issues like that. I've always used Odin to jump back to froyo with the older GTG files..
Once back to Froyo, I've used SOC to quick root, copied over the modified recovery file and went from there..
Long way/old school way..but its always got me out of a bind...
