I have been trying to flash a new ROM on my Infuse for a few weeks now. I've spent hours on end trying and failing. Bricked it a few times but I managed to get out of it. After going back to stock firmware (2.3.6) my phone won't go into the debugging mode. I'll plug it in and it just says USB connected. I also put the phone into download mode and Odin didn't pick it up.
I've tried several different cables, computers, etc. All drivers are up to date as well. Samsung Kies won't recognize the phone either. This is getting really frustrating!
Anyone have any solutions here?
Are you rooted? If yes, flash from phone.
Try rebooting your PC then try your different cords and USB ports.

I tried to switch my rooted and rom'ed phone to the att froyo and my phone hung. I can get into download mode, but odin doesnt recognize my phone. I can only get odin to find my phone when it is the reboot screen. I have tried I have tried to use one click from AIO but when I am in download it tells me usb debugging is off and at this point I cant get to any ui to switch it on. Anyone have any idea how to switch it on?
dl mode does not require usb debugging.
Couple things
Have you used odin before?
Have you tried multiple ports?
Can you get into recovery?
Do you have a rom zip on your sd?
So in attempt to find my way to cyanogenmod 7 today i managed to brick my phone using odin3 one click. i was able to get my phone back into download mode after reading a few tips. so my new problem is my computer saying "usb device not recogniced. one of the usb devices on this computer has malfunctioned'. i've tried reinstalling the samsung drivers for my captivate and that doesnt seem to fix the problem. Any ideas? And if i can get odin to recognize my phone, should i master clear everything before trying to flash it back to stock?
Re-install the drivers and try again. Be sure to have the ODIN 1 Click open before connecting your phone in download mode.
also try different USB ports. wouldn't be the first time a port caused a connection problem.
I am trying to flash my Infuse in Odin however...
I have Samsung Mobile Drivers installed. When I have Odin up and ready and plug in the Infuse in download mode, windows says USB device not recognized.
also, when the phone is booted up, it will not charge, and windows will not recognize it either.
When booting into ClockworkMod Recovery it says:
E:Missing bitmap indeterminate2
same thing through indeterminate6
I have tried on different computers, with a few different micro USB cables
What the heck is wrong with this phone?
That happens to me a few days ago too. Windows used to recognize my phone, then without doing any change, windows wouldn't recognize at all, even after reinstalling Kies, trying different usb cable or USB port. What I did to solve the problem is that I turned on Kies first, then plug in the phone, windows would say it could not recognize the USB decide, then in Kies, I clicked on troubleshoot (or something like that), then Kies will reinstall the driver and then u can go back here and thank me. Lol. Hope it helped u

Didn't help. I think my USB port must just be done for...
Dang it
so, my phone is bricked, I bought a jig since I couldn't access download mode. The jig works perfectly, but no matter what cord, USB port or computer or operating system I still can't get the phone recognized. I always get "USB device not recognized, it may have malfunctioned...etc." I thought it was the drivers and etc, but my friends Galaxy S works in download mode and gets recognized...I thought it might be the USB port, but the jig works everytime and the charger turns the phone on when plugged in.
So I'm out of options, the unbrickable mod is just not in my skill set, what else can I possibly do?
I know you said it was coming up as USB device not recognized...buy did you run Odin and see if it was there?
Yes, neither hemidall or odin detect it.

I can't tell if you tried this, but when I was flashing with the Captivate and Odin, I always re-installed the drivers. Everytime. I also had better luck running Odin as Administrator. Again, couldn't tell from OP if you did all that, so hope I'm not preaching to the choir

then try to go in download mode u can go in it by
1.take out the battery
2.hold the 2 volume keys (not the power key).
3.put battery inside..
4.then while holding the 2 vol keys plug the usb cable in the phone and to the pc..

Have you tried just putting cable in PC then in reg mode hook to phone...let it find and recognize. Then unhook from phone. then put in d/l mode then hook to computer....then open odin.....
EDIT: the cable that comes with the phone is really not such a good cable...i went out and bought a nice thick one..just casue the sammy one works for charging and USB mass storage doesn't mean it will for ODIN...I ran into that with my Captivate and Infuse...I went out and got a nice thick 25$ cable...no issues...also try a diff port...>?
I swear the op never gets read. the phone is bricked, I can't get past the Samsung screen, I have stock 3e recovery, and the only way to get to download mode is the jig. I have tried kies mini and the exe for drivers but none of the multiple computers ive tried recognize the phone, I have tried several different cords as well, I think my only option is Jtag.

No that's not your only option..... If the phone turns on at all ths sts great, diagnosing kies fire the drivers is crucial first off, then use the jig to get into dl then hook up to computer and open heimdall one click back to stock by Ulster, if heimdall still doesn't recognize it, unplug micro USB from phone and plug back in, again the RIGHT drivers for windows or Mac are CRUCIAL! Just went through a huge ordeal with my infuse thinking it was gonna be dead, if you can get to Samsung letters its not bricked, bricked is if it does nothing....read my last post.

Okay so all of a sudden my phone wants to act stupid and piss me off for the night, so... after an hour of research I cant find a solution to my problem. When I plug my phone into my PC it says "USB Device Not Recognized" and not even ODIN shows anything when in download mode. The pulldown bar doesn't show any option to change between PTP or MTP. I did a complete wipe and reflashed my rom with no third party tweaks installed, still no luck. I unchecked USB Debugging and that didnt help. I tried dialing *#7284# but that didnt do anything and USB options did pop up.
I've tried uninstalling my drivers and reinstalling them but it did nothing as my PC doesnt recognize the device at all. I tried a different USB cord and plugged it into different USB ports but STILL nothing. Does anyone have a REAL, working solution to this problem. I just need to put some music in my phone...
Bump

Usually this is a sign of a bad cable or a bad USB port. But you said you eliminated these so idk what to tell you. Maybe the port on your phone is malfunctioning. Can you test on another computer?

Same problem
I'm searching for same answer. I rooted via Casual and all was well until I tried to back up my ROM via CWM then the dreaded yellow triangle appeared and I can't get Odin to recognize my Verizon SIII - used version 1.85 to 3.07. Downloaded Samsung website USB drivers. My computer had no problem with phone popping up before the yellow triangle. Any answers in other forums?
