Is the USB cable you are using the one that came with your Infuse? If not use the one that came with your Infuse. Some aftetmarket USB cables wont work for data, they only work as a charger.
Just my 2¢

i dont have it, but iv used many USB cables
I would bet that your problem is the USB cable itself. Again it's just my 2¢ . I have used one from an old Blackberry and one from an HTC inspire .. both work fine . I also bought a USB cable from ATT and all it did was charge the phone...but would not allow my PCs to communicate with the Infuse.

Ya, so i tried using a Samsung cable and it didn't work. So I borrowed my dads phone and did a backup on the stock rom with recovery and i then tried flashing it on my phone. Know when i turn it on i cant get past the Samsung screen. so i cant even try getting into recovery holding the bottom volume button down. I think im toast, i guess ill try calling Samsung now.
You have to hold all three buttons until you see the Samsung logo, to get into recovery.

I just tryed the three buttons and got into recovery! im restoring one of my backups! know just need to get it to stock rom again
I say if your under warranty if there's nothing you can do is completely brick so u can't put it into download mode and go in to the store like you have no idea what happen.

they will see that i was messing with firmware if i do that
Look into how to package stock into a cwm zip. Backup everything you want to keep format internal and external sd. Boot into recovery do a factory reset and wipe, wipe, wipe, and then flash. Make sure you can't boot into recovery after that and that you don't have super user.
I have had a few friends send there phones in to get exchanged while they were rooted one on a custom rom. They just made sure either they uninstalled superuser and made sure they couldn't get into recovery. I sure deleting any rooted apps would add a little security. I say get rid of dl mode because I seen them try to boot into it when I got mine replaced.

So, I got soft bricked. I tried to odin back to stock but ive tried every three button combo to get back in to download mode with nothing working. I try pulling battery then holding both vol keys then inserting battery and then plugging in usb cable while its plugged into the computer and odin is running. Ive tried every other variation of this as well. I have no idea what to do next, please help. Plugging in the USB after holding the keys only brings up the SAMSUNG screen. I can three button into 3e recovery but of course that is no help. Please help

Sweet story bro.
Are you by chance on a ROM with extended power menu? With the Download mode option. That would be perfect!
I am on no rom. I was switching when I soft bricked

I've exhausted every option presented to me short of sending it to samsung, the thing with that is all my roms and kernels are on the root of the sd card, the current rom before crash was dmans ucbl3 with stock kernel, will they refuse me service for any of this?

did you tried a different usb port on the computer or a different computer?
tried a different data usb cord?
I tried different computers, cords, drivers, everything. I even tried a different battery. Would a USB jig work?

possible. A jig would force your phone into DL mode.
I tried to help a few user in the past when they had a continuous power loop, samsung logo and reboot. over and over again.
It was later determined to be hardware.
If you are not able to get it into DL mode, chances are the store tech wont be able to either...you might be able to warranty thru samsung or att for hardware failure
Download mode is what I need to save me, I could unbrick to stock and go from there right?

yes..if you can get into DL mode:
android shoveling dirt or phone triangle with "!"
then you can flash with odin or heimdall..I usually use the heimdall 1 click method.
the important thing is use whatever you're comfortable with.
Sound like what happened to me and im waiting for my next indie now, warranty exchange of course

download menu
hold down both volume rockers together only!! and plug in usb keep holding till download mode pulls up on phone
So I have a infuse that is acting up very weird. It will only turn on if its plugged in to power. Tried everything, if it is unplugged and I insert battery it tries to start up without me touching anything, I get the startup star then it reboots over and over, plug it in and I get the star then battery then I can hold power button and it will fire up, tried different batteries, different roms and updated boot loaders, nothing has worked, thinking a hardware problem.... like a bad micro USB port as it acts funny, but can't find one to replace it with...... any ideas? Bought it for 100$ because it does work, you just can't turn it off while out of the house...lol and I like to fix things.... any ideas would be awesome, thanks!

i would backup any current rom in the case that it is a hardware issue.
Question, can it boot recovery...?
Edit: never mind, stupid question, trying to flash cm9 at the moment so im kinda back and forth.
custom rom, of course it can
I can make it stock or customer, roms are not the issue.... the whole power deal and micro USB issue... wondering if people have seen that.

Hi guys. I have a problem with my Atrix 2 and wanted to know if you could guide me.
30% of the time that I connect via USB on the computer is restarted. And sometimes doing nothing is off and I have to remove the battery and stick it again.
Any idea what might happen?

I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. Is the phone randomly rebooting itself? Also, what exactly have you done to the phone: i.e.: are you rooted, have you installed a custom rom you're running, or any tweaks or mods you've made? The more information you can give, the more we can help...
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
I know my words are not clear because my English is very poor and there is no page in Spanish on the Atrix 2.
It restarts when I connect to the computer and sometimes when I'm using.
Well, do not use any cooked ROM, I have the original AT & T 2.3.6

I know the original ATRIX 4G was having issues with random rebooting, but I've not seen much of that with the ATRIX 2. You might try a factory reset and see of that solves things for you...

If the phone reboots randomly without being on charge or USB to PC, maybe a bad battery? I'd try the reset first, I seem to remember my girlfriend's ATRIX 4G rebooting itself at random, and I factory reset it -seemed to alleviate it.

yeah, if it is just when plugging in, I would say bad cable, but otherwise, try a wipe.
EDIT: is it fully rebooting, or just hot rebooting (does it just go back to the animation, or totally turn off then come back up to the dual core screen)?
Is complete, as if he had turned off ..
I did a factory reset as I said @ Apex_Strider and so far everything has gone well, I hope that does not happen rebot again haha
Thank you!
So this started about a month ago and i tried to ignore it but i don't want to deal with it any longer. My is not recognized on my computer anymore even after i reinstalled the drivers multiple time. Its not recognized in odin, the "My Files" app and the music app are both missing. Also whenever i try to put it into download mode it just launches clockwork mod. I've tried every method besides the usb jig. Does anyone have any idea whats wrong or any solutions to try?
Can you download a new rom. If so can you flash a new one from cwm.

Yes i forgot to mention that. I can flash new roms and everything but they all have the same problem.
I also tried restoring from an older back up and it had the "My files" and the music app but it still wasn't recognized and still wasn't recognized on my computer
My initial thoughts?
Using the stock cable (it matters)?
Connected to computer's USB and not a hub?
Try a different computer?
Can you mount either SD from cwm and have it show up in windows?
If/when you solve the windows issue, I'd try wiping both emmc and external, then load your fav from and retry.

I'm pretty sure if your in download mode, connection problems are only computer or cable related. Do you have another cable to try? How are you going into download mode?

I have used the stock cable and two other ones I have. The only way I could get it into download mode was through the power button shortcut in cm9. Every time I plug it in it says the device malfunctioned. I thought it was a driver problem but I've already reinstalled them a few times.

Have you tried holding volume+- (with phone off and Odin running) and plugging cable in? I've had best success with download mode being recognized by doing that.

It should do neither since you are not touching the power button. But if that is in fact happening than i have never seen the issue.

did you follow the guide
are u touching the power button, the answer should be no
or the power button is sticking down, to fix that try to repeatedly keep pushing the power hard to try to unstick it, sounds like a stuck power button to me, almost positive
