Samsung Infuse Bootloop? - Samsung Infuse 4G

A have a link to a video that I would appreciate you to check out. My Samsung Infuse 4g shut off randomly during use and constantly reboots itself. The rest is explained in the video's description.
*i can't link because I'm a new user.. However.. The phone shuts off and pulls up the Samsung screen, i have flashed a custom CM9 ROM onto it, however it ran fine until it just randomly shut off.. I don't know why it did it. But now I can't get it into Download Mode or into it's Clockwork Recovery.. I'm not sure if it is bricked or if there is any way I can fix it.. The video is titled "Samsung Infuse 4g AT&T (Please Help)" it will either be under Brandon Meadors or androiduser360. Please and thank you for help.
Thank you so much for any help you can give.

Hi M8! Yesterday i posted a thread about the very same situation, i have two motherboards with that same issue. My guess i that youre not used to flash cell phones, so my guess is also that it means that you dont have develop good soldering skills. Theres a development made by a guy named Adam Outler in here called Unbrickable Mod. He is very highly skill developer. I have the same issue you have right now with a couple motherboards i have. And im going to apply that mod today to see if i can restore my cell phone back. If it works ill let you know, so that maybe you can find a way to do it. If thats the case, i suggest you to read, read, and keep reading lol... Theres a lot to learn about when we deal with situations like that. Ive never deal with something like that, but ive done UnbrickableMod many times already. So ill let you know

Well you can always use a usb jig if you want it will boot your phone into download mode then flash to stock.
Heres a good link on how to make one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604707

Yeah its a good idea Ty113096, the problem is that the JIG doesnt work either. When you insert the JIG the phone will get to download mode ok, but then a couple seconds later it will reboot and the bootloop goes on and on. Oh! By the way UnbrickableMod didnt solve it! The phone will do pretty much the same when the resurrector is applied. Very strange situation but such is life i guess...

Thank you guys so much for the help.. So.. Is this unfixable?

If you can get into recovery (pull battery, up/down volume depressed, connect usb and install battery)...these are some posts that I've found helpful. If it works, hit qksters and jscotts thanks.

P.S. qksters is stickied right at the top of this q&a forum. Section A would probably apply to you.

Take out the battery and place it back. Does it automatically turn on?
If it does then your problem is the power button.

I'm agree with andros11 your power button is broken

You saved the day, i took the phone apart like 3 times trying to figure it out. thank you.
(what fixed it for me was i removed the housing and took out the plastic/rubber button cover, then put battery back in phone -and for the first time it didnt power up on it's own!!! clicked the little white button-node with pry tool and it started like normal) so simple...

HELP!!!! not sure if soft bricked or hard bricked

My samsung galaxy s (sgh-t959v) is not powering on or going to recovery or download mode. i tried putting simply honey 5.1 on the phone. and this happened plz help!!!
Try to connect it via USB and see if
Odin recognizes it. It sometimes doesn't matter if download mode isn't literally displayed on screen, Odin would still be able to flash.
after connecting it, try to power it on and stay alert on what Odin displays.
Also make sure your battery is not completely depleted.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
I've also read where others had a similar problem with it not powering on or anything. A few had success after leaving the battery out for ~24 hours (not sure it has to go that long, but why not?) and putting it back in. Then they were able to get it into download mode.
As Mikeflash said, some phones will be in an ODIN-recognizable mode even though the screen is totally black.

well as for me i tried that already also and nothing happened, i dont have money for a jig i've seen people do it with 3 100k resistors and tape but im not sure if thats safe or if it even works, tmobile said they would send me a replacement for it. but i dont want to wait that long and if they see that i tried to rom the phone then im sure i wont get it back.
Simply Honey isn't a ROM for this particular phone; which is why it's goofed. It probably loaded up the i9000 boot loaders.
Maybe give Raver's guide a shot?

If you'd like to send the device to me, I can perform the mod for $30 + shipping (usually $6 in USA) . Personally, I don't think its right to return a device that you've damaged. This is my main reason for creating UBM. It keeps me and others honest.

infuse not booting

first of all I'm going to say I'm not all that new to this. and i have read through the forums and i don't see anyone with this exact problem (or even close)
My problems is getting into download mode.
I was using ZEUS' latest ROM and loving it but decided to reflash from stock because data wasn't working. pulled up Odin on my desktop *which was the first time i used it for anything but transferring files* got into download mode and was re-flashing with GTG's unbrick. it was on system.sysfs (i think?) and it stopped and replaced the yellow connected With a red box with FAIL. Thinking it was FUBAR i unplugged it and tried to boot up (still in download mode i used power- and power.) aaand nothing.
Now after 15 minutes of different Button combination, computers, and usb ports i don't know what to do.
When i plug the phone in and hold down vol+- and power and put in the battery i get nothing...
Am i SOL or can i get a Jig to fix it?
Also how do i make a jig?

Pull the battery out for a while.
Assure that your battery is charged and have more than 50% juice.

Assuming the thread is back open (one month without activity is considered a dead thread on this forum right?) I have seen all the advice about the battery. well I had one of my dad's friends have a cracks at it. Here's the thing. It does not do ANYTHING! The screen doesn't turn on, charging indication on screen, when it's plugged into the computer (win7) it flashes up "Device recognized" then it's gone. The actual phone is completely gone. No movement you could say.. I don't have a jig to try but I think I might just try the jtag from somewhere earlier in this thread.
im having the same issue, i think i bricked my phone and i cant get into download mode ive tried all the combinations and stuffs posted in others thread but ive not been able to solve anything.. please help!

In order to use Heimdall Adam Outlers One Click you need to setup the phone as download mode, but that's the problem, the phone won't even go to that mode. If you know how to do it without that mode, really will be appreciated
I also have the same issue. No boot at all. The computer won't even recognize it. really need help with this issue without opening the phone... please, thanks!

[Q] HELP!!!!! My Infuse is Jacked!!!!!

OK so i just came back from a deployment and heard there was an update to gingerbread software from the stock froyo. I read up a little on it and decided to give it a try. I do not do a lot of builds, custom roms, or things like that on my device, so my knowledge level isnt that great. I downloaded Kies Mini and was performing the upgrade and my computer just shut off in the middle of it. My phone is now jacked. All it will do when i turn it on is display a ton of dots. My phone looks like a christmas tree. I tried holding down the volume buttons and plugging it into the USB cord, and still nothing but dots. I tried the hard reset by holding the volume buttons, turning it off, and releasing the power button and still nothing. Is there anyway to fix this?? Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!
Does the computer recognize the phone when you have it plugged in? If not, the simplest things to try are different USB ports, different cords or different computers.
Beyond that, it gets more complex. If the computer does recognize the phone, did you try this way - unplug the usb, turn off the phone, hold down the volume keys and plug the phone back in? If so and you still had the dots, it is possible you're still in download mode and can still try to finish the download.
Otherwise, you may have to go to GTG Unbrick, Heimdall or Odin.
Yes as long as your screen can display something, there's a chance to fix it.
OK, so now when i turn it on, the screen is just white. It is not pixelated anymore. Im not sure if my computer recognizes it or not. It does not show up on my computer anywhere but when i connect my phone to it with the usb cord my computer makes the sound like something was just connected. I opened Odin 3 v1.7 and in the ID:COM box it says 0:[COM15]. Now what do i do?? Thanks for the help. Sorry i am not android saavy!!!
I use this method to get the latest stock....are planning to put custom ROM?

If you pull out the battery and put it back did the phone automatically turn on by itself then keep rebooting?
Did you try 3 combo buttons to enter recovery vol up+dn and power then release power button but keep holding vol up+dn to enter recovery mod.
If the phone still keep bootlooping then it something wrong with Power button and may you need to replace that.

so its not bricked
doesn't sound bricked but it could be tricky to fix. first you have to isolate any hardware problem with the volume or power buttons. maybe pull it apart and clean it. if the usb port is intact it should be salvageable.
one question.... would you sell it? i can always use a backup.
Sounds like power button...but like.dani said...you are not yet in the clear :/
But here's what worked for others:
Rapidly pressing/mashing power button

Alright well I don't know if this issue ever got resolved, we did speak but only once in PM but no follow up.
So I was going to make a video of the steps I took the first time I experienced this, where the install failed, phone would reboot back into recovering then the Android guy would fall over and it would reboot again back into recovery and repeating the process infinitely.
So the video I was gonna make explained some pretty indepth steps I took...and I have to admit I haven't wanted to make the vid because I didn't want to go thru the process again especially since I've been working on themes and wanted my phone up and running.
So. Here is something for you to try if you ever run into this problem
( I just had it happen again, and discovered this right before setting up the camera to do the before avoided video, lol )
Anyway it worked for me.
When it starts to recovery bootloop, 3 finger hold (power, vol up, vol down) keep holding while Samsung appears.
Continue to hold, Samsung will disappear, then when it reappears a second time release the buttons and you should enter recovery without a bootloop.
Then flash a different rom than the one that obviously gave you a bad flash.
Hope that helps some of you

That's a solution for a soft brick, not a hard brick.There's a reason why it's called hard brick dude, you can't recover from it unless you're tony stark and are able to patch the blown e-fuses

Yeah after taking a closer look that does look more like a softbrick fix not a hardbrick fix.
Sorry everyone that was my bad, I asked alldoom65 to post this thinking it would help someone out of a hard brick, but I did not read close enough to see that the guy was stuck on M logo.... so everyone can slap me, not alldoom65.
Hey alldoom65, maybe change the title to indicate that this post is an alternate way out of a softbrick, when rsd does not see the phone, and you do not have the scripts. Not a hardbrick fix. you can edit the title in the go advanced button in the edit screen, I think.
Again sorry everyone, especially to you alldoom65.

I never fully left, just been taking a back seat.
I am working on buying an engineering version of the atrix2 with an unlocked bootloader, so... We'll see.. I might be back with a vengeance, soon.
P.S. I love your signature

Lol thanks and here I thought no one would understand.

So my A2 seems really dead for some reason. I had system 1 in BMM as Stock ICS rooted. System 2 blank and 3 PAC milestone RC1. Flashed a 4.3 font on system 1 accidentally and lost BMM. Had a day to get to a computer and try the windows.batch cuz not enough time for FXZ. No avail. Rebooted a couple times and now its a blank. Won't get into fast boot barely unless I have it plugged in while volume up n down while stuck on M. Plugged into PC I get the white led. But wall AC only brings me to M. Not battery charging. I don't get it. It can't be bricked. Can battery be done for? Wtf happened? I'm currently trying to get a Motorola branded USB wall AC charger to see if I can get it to at least charge to 5% and give the windows.batch a go again...

Yup has happened to me before(I think).It's a soft brick.Get more juice in your battery and then fxz back or use the windows patch.You should be just fine..
Good luck..

That's happened to me too. Had to use the macguyver battery charge method to get it back going again.
Brought to you by time and relative dimensions in space.

LIKE A BOSS! It's up and running! Thanks for the info dude...I did sum crazy surgery and took a huge gamble doing this but it worked like a lucky charm! AWESOME! Letting it charge cuz after the FXZ It's at 0%! Crazy! Letting it get to 100 before I even try rooting it. So glad I got my laptop back today too!!!
This is what the cord looked like after cutting and seperating/taping. I'm keeping this thing just in case I ever need it again! lol!
