Strange icon on my Startup Infuse 4G

I think i BRICKD it.....
I was performing a Restore to STOCK using Odin 3 v 1.7 and the GTG's UNBRK files from here.
The process failed while the phone was in Download mode.
Now all I get is
An icon which looks like
A Cell Phone ........Exclamation Mark (in orange).......... Computer
The phone is not responding to any of the buttons:
1. No power down... I have to remove the battery and then no matter what I do, power on or else, it shows the same icon
Any one else been here?
Any way to FIX this or am I SOL?

I believe this is in the wrong forum but I understand your panic. Don't take my word for this but I believe you need a USB jig to get out of this. Or unless try this:
1. Pull battery for 15-20 seconds
2. Re insert battery
3. Hold volume up/volume down while plugging in USB cord from computer
4. If it succeeds you should be in download mode!
P.s. Sorry if you have already done this, i'm just attempting to help you troubleshoot

Thank you for the suggestion. Yes, that is the exact thing I am seeing and No, that Vol Up + USB insert still gives the same icon.
What is a USB jig? and where do I get it?
Many thanx and sorry for posting it in the wrong forum... perhaps, admin can move to the right one.... yes, it was panic.

Uhh, I haven't gotten stuck on that on my Infuse I don't think, but with the Captivate the solution was to hold vol + and - and power at that screen until it rebooted, then let go of power and it would fall back to download mode.
And yes, this is not development and should be in the general section.

EDIT: Did you hold BOTH volume up and down as you plugged in the usb?
USB Jig

It's been reported here in the forums that IT DOES work. You might want to search around to confirm that. Or, if you want quick help you can possibly explain more of what you did to get your phone to this point.

Jig Does work!!!
i made at the job not to long ago....took me a while to get the right resistance, but it got it into download mode.

Yes, I meant to write Holding BOTH Vol+ and - and USB insert.
Here are the steps that I got me here... one step is completely stupid....
1. Yesterday, I was trying to get 3e recovery, so got the zip file
2. MISSED this step - of Copying the recovery file to SD Card.
3. Renamed the old recovery in the bin folder to _old
4. Rebooted and then used the ROM Manager to reboot into Recovery.... Bad idea - The phone went blank....
5. Only solution I saw was to ODIN in the GTG's Ultimate unbrick.....
6. Went into Download Mode....
7. ODIN sees the COM Port.
8. Loaded the .pit and other files per instructions....
9. Pressed START
10. ODIN reports failed.
11. Unhooked the USB and HARD rebooted.... Arrived at this icon.
Yes, i am a noob and am paying for my mistake of overlooking a step.

You could possibly try heimdall... do you have kies installed (only needed for drivers)? Hmm, I couldn't help you any further w/o actually being there
Definitely keep me posted!

I have bricked my phone a few times now . Same error screen and everything, just do the vol + and vol - down trick , let it boot to the error screen and startup odin 1.8 or higher. That part is very important. Odin 1.8 will recognize it as a serial device and write the software . Good luck!

I've been in that icon, but I just tried back with Odin gtg's unbrick and it went through perfectly as always. I got there because I forgot to select the pit file and Odin started to download and it failed.
I think that symbol is the same download mode but in this case you must use Odin because the phone can't startup itself. Just don't panic if it worked for me then it would work for you.

weird because I have used odin 1.7 with success each time..

Oh yeah, that error screen is a download mode isn't it? I forgot about that. So just use unbrick from there or flash something else you want.

Yeah, that error screen is download mode, just like the usual "Construction Android" screen, with one difference:
The phone is forcing download mode because it knows it's hosed up. It's saying "flash something with Odin or you're not going anywhere".
So you're already in download mode - no need for button combos, the phone realized you needed it and went straight there for you.
BTW this doesn't belong in Development.

Those symbols only mean that it did not finish the last operation/flashing
Its the same as download mode.
So go back into those "Cell Phone ........Exclamation Mark (in orange).......... Computer"
Which is download mode and start a new flash of the Ultimate Unbrick.
Good luck, be sure to to put PIT to PIT PDA to PDA and PHONE to PHONE
in odin!!!

GOOD NEWS.
That was simple... Followed the suggestions from Nopcodex90 , Mrjunky and all....
Just started ODIN, loaded the PIT, PDA and PHONE files and off it went and am back alive........
You all are so helpful... Thank you all..... I learnt valuable lessons today.....
Now, if I may request the Admin to please move this post to the correct forum ......

That happened to me other day I just plugged it in Odin like that and it recognized it and did gtg unbrick back to stock, try to restart Odin and try plugging it in like that and see if Odin recognizes it, it recognized mine

Take out the battery, put battery back in, hold both volume buttons, continue holding and plug in usb. You should be in download mode, now retry odin with GTG ultimate unbrick.
This phone is never really bricked, ive flashed a wrong bootloader using heimdall and nothing would turn on and i was still able to odin back to stock.

Please help me unbrick if possible.

Please help. I was using odin3 v1.85 and trying to flash the stock EP4 from the imnuts page. during the flash odin said it failed. My phone now fails to be recognized by my PC. I am not able to boot into CWM nor am I able to boot in to download mode. Any which way I try to get the phone booted up I get the screen that looks like:
cellphone...exclamation point in a triangle... computer
With the battery out of the cell, if I plug the phone into my computer, it is not recognized by the computer and no power flows to the phone
When I put the battery back in and either try to boot to CWM or download mode, I get the:
cell... exclamation point in triangle...computer.
Am I now bricked for good? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Are you holding the volume down button when plugging it in? Battery out, hold volume down, plug in phone... If still not recognized, try downloading an older version of odin... Then repeat... Ive had my phone at that same screen and came out ok so dont freak... Lol.

Volume down with battery out when connected to PC. Then make sure you put the battery back in before flashing.

Good thought. I booted up Odin3 version 1.3 and no luck. The phone will not go in to download mode but Odin1.3 will recognize the phone as plugged in, which is a step in the right direction compared to Odin3 1.85 which would not. Oh, I am beginning to "freak out" from this stress!!
Any recommendations or suggestions? Thanks ahead of time.
...

I use odin v1.82... Try that. If I rememebr right it took me several tries before I got odin to recognize my phone. So your starting with the phone off and battery out... Your holding down volume down key as you plug the phone in? and when you do that it odin recognizes your device but your device just shows that its charging? Try flashing it anyways with the .pit file and stock ep4d... If that doesnt work try flashing CWM first.. Then flash the restore package.. Sounds to me like your phone has been absolutely wiped so you have no recovery image. I think thats finally what got me up and running again.. This is a fixable situation, dont give your hopes up!!!!

Take out the battery and it shouldn't do that.

[Q] cwm help

You need to reflash cwm with Odin the stock recovery overwrites cwm when your on the stock ROM
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I was on the stock rom and reflashed cwm using odin and it reverted back to the stock recovery each time. I had to odin the new rom I was going to first, then odin the new recovery and everything was fine.

After you Odin CWM, you need to immediately boot into CWM and flash a non-stock kernel. Stock kernels will overwrite CWM with stock recovery if they boot into the OS.

When you Odin cwm make shire autorestart is not checked. Odin cwm unplug phone take battery out. Put battery back in boot directly to cwm by pressing home, Vol up and power. Hold until Samsung logo comes up the second time then let go. Now you're in the flashes cwm go install superuser, then reboot . Install "root explorer" , sum privileges should b allowed , go to "system" folder find "recovery.sh" file, it has a yellow star. Click on the "Mount R/W" Press and hold on the recovery file till menu pops up, go to "permissions" uncheck all the boxes save and exit. Shut down phone, go to download mode with Odin flash cwm again make shire autorestart is not checked , unplug take bat out. Put bat back startup. You should be able to go to cwm any time now.
This is from one of the posts I read and memorized. Thanks go to whoever figured it out.

Power the phone down completely. Pull the battery. Hold volume down while you plug in the USB cable. When it comes up in download mode, put battery back in.

This instruction, step 5.

What I do to get my download screen is : bat out , vol down, power then plug in cable (count) 1 and release power but hold vol down until download mode pops up. Then put battery in. That's the only way it works for me. Some ppl hold both buttons until download mode pops up, that don't work for me. Others can get it by pressing buttons n piping in battery and then connecting cable. Try some of these. I figured out my just by chance my finger slipped cause most can do it by pressing both buttons holding and plugging in. If I do it that way my phone either reboots or nothing happens.

Don't use the power button at all to get into download mode. Just remove the battery, hold down volume down, and plug the USB cable in. It'll automatically power on. Then you should put the battery back in to help ensure a better chance at a clean flash.

When you say on, off, on, off. Do you mean the lights flash then it goes off or does it try to boot?
Can you get into download mode?
Have you tried a different battery or left the battery out for an hour or so, then tried again?

i've never get into download mode :S how i do that?
Yes, i tried different battery and it does the same with both.
any solution? could be some files from the software are missing? repair software? u.u

First you need to download Heimdall or Odin from the ISET page to you PC. I believe Odin uses the Kies drivers and Heimdall replaces the with a Samsung composite driver. I personally use the Heimdall back to stock that is rooted.
Once you have them and decide which one you will use, you will need to get into download mode. Take the battery out, connect USB to phone and preferably a rear USB port on your PC. Hold volume up and down, No Power button though, and then insert the battery. This should put you in download mode and you need to push volume up to get to it. Volume down cancels it and will reboot. You may want to just try that one time to see if it corrects the problem. If not, repeat steps to get to download and flash either Odin to Heimdall and then start flashing again.
Read the instructions on the OP of Odin or Heimdall and ask questions if you aren't sure of what to do.

Hello everyone I am back again with a galaxy this time
I used this guide to root my phone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21953587&postcount=1
the root worked perfectly, but I did wrong is that I didn't have any of my applications that I had before root, so I thought that it is a good idea to go back into CWM and restore it from there, after I did that the phone rebooted and got stuck in the Galaxy screen, I am unable to access recovery, CWM or download mode the phone doesn't even boot it justs sits at the galaxy screen.
btw I have this kernel Bhundven's Subtly Modified Stock with CWM5 + Voodoo Lagfix (thanks to AntonX )
this is the rom that I flashed -Valhalla - BlackEdition(thanks to RaverX3X)
my computer does recognise my phone when I do the three finger salute while plugged in usb.
please I need help this is my only phone ​

If you can still get into recovery then try wiping the caches and fix permissions. That may fix it, if not maybe wipe data. Otherwise if you can still use recovery then you should try wiping everything and re-installing the rom, or restore nandroid backup and use titanium to backup your apps.
If you can't get to recovery then you should be able to one-click back to stock from download mode and start over.

So, I have been in this very situation with that same very setup. I flashed a Nandroid backup and bam, stuck at the screen. Spent hours trying to fix it. Best part was, I was on a business trip, and all the info I needed was in my phone
So, the trick here as I recall is to get the phone in Download Mode, once there, you can then use Heimdall One-Click http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358498 (which is what I used that time) or you can flash One-Click Gremlin Remover, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500427 which uses Odin to Flash back to Stock.
To the best of my recollection, here is how I recall getting into D/L mode after hours of trying. About 5am, got it to work. Thanks to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1112076
Steps are:
1. Have Heimdall or One-Click opened and ready
2. Remove your battery
3. I would hold the power button for like 10 secs to discharge the circuits (not sure this is needed, just like a clean slate)
4. Hold the Volume rocker down (no battery in the phone yet) *Note you DO NOT press or hold the POWER button for this procedure.
5. Plug computer connected USB into your phone (still holding down the volume rocker)
6. Insert Battery into phone (still holding down the volume rocker) Your phone should automatically turn on at this point in to Download Mode.
The order of the above is critical in that you do not install your battery until after the USB is connected, while you hold the volume rocker down. This should take you into Download mode where you can reflash.
You might also run into an issue where your computer does not recognize the drivers for your phone initially (because they are not being sent to it by the phone). If you are getting into Download Mode and you see that Heimdall or One Click is not detecting the device, reinstall the drivers from the Samsung site for the SGS4G and then try.
Hope this helps! Been in the exact same jam, you can get this fixed. Soft bricks are always better than hard bricks.

Thanks for clarifying, that was what I meant. I press the middle of the rocker to hold it "down" did not even think of that being mistaken as in directionally down. Sounds like the OP is up and running so all good.

Good to hear. Now, get yourself updated to one of the stable ICS MTD ROMs, I never had much success with the GB ROMs being all that stable for me. Personally, I like AOKP (4.0.4) myself.

Out of curiosity, did you end up using Heimdall or One-Click Gremlin Remover?
