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've tried it on 5 different computers :/
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.
there's a trouble shooting guide for odin in the sticky how to restore to stock in the dev forum made by me

I just remembered that all of this started to happen after I used Odin to flash it back to stock because it was saying the MD 5 sums didn't match when I was trying to restore from an older recovery
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

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

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!

Edit: never mind, stupid question, trying to flash cm9 at the moment so im kinda back and forth.

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.

Leave the battery out and persistently try again. Sometimes it takes several tries to work. Firmly push both volume buttons and firmly insert usb.

Try to flash the stock kj6 one click that bhundven has in his one click thread. That should overwrite any custom boot logos. However I dont suggest doing this as YOU broke the phone not T-Mo or Samsung. IMO its fraud and theft.
I'm in CWM Recovery 6.0.1.0 any way to get to download mode from there. So I can flash stock and get it back to working again!

I followed the instructions perfectly for WhiteHawkx Valhalla when I was at the restart boot-loader section my phone turned into rainbow crack,
but the rom loaded and my phone worked I was however unable to get into recovery from this point forward.
I decided that not being able to get into recovery was unacceptable so I decided to use Odin to load up the old tried an true jump off point the deodexed KD1 I keep with Odin in a folder on my PC for just such an occasion, after attempting this my phone didn't restart on it's own like it was supposed to... (I should have known to stop right there while I was still in DL mode.)
When I restarted my phone manually my phone stopped showing the rainbow crack and showed the normal splash screen (I was foolishly optimistic) my phone is now stuck at the t mobile splash screen and I haven't been able to get it back into DL mode...
Please tell me there is something I can do other than shop for a new phone.

I have been unable to get into recovery so far...
I have tried all of the alternate methods except ADB mode which I don't think i can because the phone wont go past the galaxy S 4g exclusively from t mobile splash screen.
if there is a trick for the ADB method please let me know cause if something is going to work at this point i think that's it.
Well there is hope, your phone is still turning on.
You could see if abd recognizes your phone if you have it. (usually the first things I do is make sure debugging is on when I change things over)
If you know someone with a jig that would be the easiest way but it is 1am.
I'm at work so I'm not in front of my computer.

My g2x will not turn on at all. I've tried the g2x_v21e flasher that someone made and still not booting. It is stuck in apx and will not light up no matter what I try. I've tried flashing CWM as well as the freezer trick. Someone advise me on what I can do to fix the phone. Last known thing was it was clearing the user data in CWM and suddenly battery was pulled.
