Can't flash through Odin or Heimdall - Samsung Infuse 4G

My friend has the Infuse running the Cyanogenmod 9 RemICS-US. Since it was installed, both of our computers are not recognized. I already installed Kies and downloaded the Samsung drivers and it's still not being recognized. So, because of that, we can flash through Odin or Heimdall. She wants to change the rom back to stock and try again, but everything I've seen so far points to using Heimdall. Is there an alternative to flashing a stock rom and is there a safe way to flash using CWM?

Put ur phone into DL mode and then connect it to PC it should install the drivers if needed.
I had personally jumped between the ICS and GB rom without flashing back to stcok (Odin/hiemdall) without any problem, Only thing u have to do is flash the rom twice first to get the red CWM from blue and then from red.
Edit: Try with a different cable.

You don't need drivers from kies or Samsung for heimdal...heimdal uses its own custom drivers

[HELP] USB doesn't connect to computer and slow response on touch screen

As the title says, I cant connect my Galaxy R to the computer and my touch screen gets bad response time when I unplug it from the recharger.
The response time is normal when I got the recharger plugged in.
Thanks in advance and sorry for bad english! :cyclops:
This issue also happened with other users. Reflashing stock rom solved this for them. Try flashing latest stock rom. I would suggest xwla4 or zsle6 these are most stable and latest builds.

Yea, but I need odin to flash stock rom, right?
And I didn't do a backup of my official rom when I rooted it for the first time >.<
Yes u will need odin to flash and don't worry its safe.
If u don't have stock files u can download it from sammobile or checkfus.

Yes, but there's the problem, when I enter download mode, it cant recognize my USB cable so can't flash that way :/
If you're using windows xp service pack 2 try upgrading to sp 3. Solved the issue for me

I only can get to download mode galaxy GT-I9003

Hello guys, I was trying to root my galaxy GT-I9003 to install an ICS rom and I had 2.3.6,,, I entered download mode and tried to use odin but it said failed. so i pushed the power button to swtich the phone off and it gave me a screen with cellphone and computer and yellow rectangle and it doesn't start or go to recovery mode the only thing i can do is to take the battery our for a minute then put it again and the only thing it does is to go to download mode and i tried to use odin again or samsun kies but nothing is working. how can i get this phone to work again please with the old OS or to start flashing a rom again?
Thanks,
Try rebooting the system and connecting and flashing again using odin.
If it still doesn't work reinstall samsung kies software and try connecting and flashing using odin.
If it still doesn't work, report here and someone will try to guide further. All the best.

I tried odin 1.7 and 3.07 and both are not working
I think the xxkpe zip file comes with Odin 1.83. Try it out as well.

Ok. Try installing xxkpe with pit on odin 1.83 then install your stock rom with odin 1.83 then it must work i think.

[Q] Q: Can not flash any roms on 4.0.4

I rooted my friends tablet gt-p5113 with 4.0.4. I used a different work around method to get the root to stick. I got clock work on but I can't seem to flash any roms on his tablet. I tried using 3 different roms already and I keep getting the same message with Andy on his back and his front door open with a red triangle saying can not open package or some thing along those lines. Any ideas?
I think flash stock firmware from for example www.samfirmware.com then begin again from the beginning !!!
When use a root file next time via odin untick auto reboot then reboot manual vol up+power then if question as fix recovery say yes

I'm kind of at loss. Would that mean that I would have to down grade to the 4.0.3. firmware?
The Tablet is already rooted. Using the method that you listed and using the latest clockwork mod file.
So may be try flashing another version of cwm as 6.0.1.0 or 6.0.1.2 or so via odin for example and make sure you are flashing right firmwares for your device specific model number
Make sure you have a proper root via app like root check basic and install supersu from market
Put the firmware in both internal and external sd and try flashing from both, may be one of them will work

I did install su. That's how I know I rooted it right. I'll try reflashing an updated firmware. Thanks for the help

Providing more info can get you better results, like rom /link, cwm version, procedures, this way others can help you diagnose your problem. A screen shot of"about tablet" is also very helpful.

Uninstall odin & heimdall drivers. They will clash. Try different usb port/cable.
The price just dropped to under 2 bills for the smaller version. 250 for the other.

i finally got it working. thanks though. I was doing odin on my laptop and heimdall on my desktop,.
i got it in to cwm, then flashed a vahalla black (it was the only gb rom on my sd) then cm9 then cm10.1. and it worked befor i was just trying to reflash cm9 or cm10.1 though i never did get odin or heimdall to work.
I though for sure my internal storage was bjorked.
Sounds like it didn't convert too mtd. Now that your on cm9, it should flash properly.

Basically you don't need kies to use Odin only the drivers. Since kies van Brick your phone while flashing.
