[Q] Recovery loop - Samsung Infuse 4G

Hello everyone and sorry to bother everyone but im in a pickle. Im new to rooting and I was following this on YouTube by qbking77 called "How to Install Clockworkmod Recovery on the Samsung Infuse 4G " video.
So what my problem is that when i placed the modified 3e recovery file in the bin folder and tried to restart my Samsung infuse 4g through the clockworkmod recovery restart it will now only boot to the Samsung screen. I believe I may have somehow placed the wrong or a corrupted 3e recovery file into the directory.
I have searched many other forums to no avail if anyone could help i would be eternally grateful.

Check the super everything thread for either a heimdall or Odin return to stock package. Download and run them with the phone in download mode. You can even get packages with CWM preinstalled.

Thank you very much for the advice! I'm trying heimdall right now but the zadiag is not recognizing my infuse. I have connected and in download mode but when going under list all device there is no Samsung.
I have been trying odin instead and I am running into the same error. I have installed drivers through kies mini but odin will not recognize the device either.

I had no luck with Odin either. Check your windows device manager and see what shows up when you plug the phone in. It doesn't always show as Samsung, but something should come up that you can use to install drivers. Best of luck getting things back to running

You probably dont have drivers installed. They are included with samsungs media companion- kies. Search "kies" on google. Shouldnt be hard to find.
When I plug in my usb cable I see a kies upgrade for my firmware. Should I upgrade to that and will that fix the problem maybe

Hahaa nice i was same place as you where... I had Fuze and then Touch pro2 running energy roms... Well man you could try an older version of super obe click but.. The new one never gave me trouble.
And if as you say, you want to root to possibly flash a GB ron later the possibukity of Odin flashing a pre rooted Rom its still a good choice if super one click keeps giving you trouble, it will basicly leave your stuff like pics music etc intact and flash a rom with root included ill add you a few thread links when i get to my pc.

Thanks for the links koriotto. I went with an earlier 1.9x superoneclick for now, but I will get thos links bookmarked!
I do have a question tho. Your links are for ultimate unbrick, right? So basically that is a staock rom for users to flash back to if they go too far down the rabbit hole?
- Thanks, Kevin
It works fine if you don't use zergrush as the exploit.
Zergrush kept hanging for me with latest superoneclick version.
Switched exploit to psneuter and it worked fine

[Q] can't get into download mode

hey gang. have a samsung galaxy s2 i727 (at&t).
tried using the odin 1-click to install ics, but something happened, everything froze, and now i get the dreaded "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
kies won't read the phone, and i'm not sure how i can get into download mode to try and flash the original rom with Odin as some other threads are directing me to do. any advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!
Have you tried rebooting the phone with the charger attached?? That always puts me in download mode

i was able to get back to stock using odin 1.3. i'd much rather be on ics, but the 1-click odin isn't working for me.

thanks!

When the phone boots to "firmware encountered an issue message" you still in dl mode try the ics one click again or just push a custom recovery and flash a rom

Yup - figured out the DL mode thing. Just had a bit of a panic at first as the screen is pretty foreboding and it was my girlfriend's phone.
I went from, "Give me your phone, dear. I'm going to upgrade it and be your hero" to "Stop yelling. I didn't break your phone. Just give me a minute to figure out how to fix it."
My problem with the ICS one-click is that the program said it was done, but the phone just hung on the "downloading ROM screen" for 20 minutes. Now that I know how to fix the soft-brick, I want to try it again. The lady, however, doesn't seem too eager to hand over the phone. =]

When it fails, it should give an error message of some kind. I'm not sure which one you're trying, but give this a shot:
[Heimdall][One-Click] The T959V Heimdall One-Click Collection [05/20/2012]
Follow the instructions on that post and it should allow you to get back to stock. If not, post whatever errors you receive back in this thread. Also, if you have the Samsung drivers installed, uninstall them before messing with Heimdall. Sometimes they don't get along and cause a conflict.

[Q] I need some Help Please!

UPDATE: I decided to get another phone through my insurance and received the same phone as of today (3-11-13) so thanks to everyone that helped me it was a greatly appreciated! Thank you very much next time I root I'll make sure to backup everything and pay really close to everything. Thank you all for helping.
Okay long story short my phone (Galaxy S 4G) is stuck on the screen where it shows a Phone, !, and a Computer. I did some research on the Internet and read something saying that this is an alternative Download Mode. Basically, what I am trying to do is Unroot my phone / revering back to stock, but did some dumb things to the point where I am stuck on this screen. I am currently using Odin to do all of this, but Odin doesn't recognize my phone for some odd reason because its been read before. So I did some research and read that I had to uninstall then reinstall some drivers then reboot my computer then do everything again. I did that, but Odin is still not recognizing my phone. I tried plugging my phone in all USB ports of my computer and its still not recognizing my phone. What do you think I should be doing? I definitely need some help and it would be greatly appreciated if any of you can help me.
Tried a different cable? Wiped data/factory reset?
It's in download mode, that's a good thing.
Which Odin version are you using? Samsung kies installed? You could try uninstalling kies/drivers & go heimdall one click.. search for lumin30's guide (it's sticked in forum). Mash thanks in his thread if it helps

Well, yes it's in Download mode, but the alternative one with the phone, !, and computer. Also I can't wipe/data factory reset unless theirs a way to get that if so let me know. The version of Odin I am using 1.7, so I tried v1.80 and the latest version which is 3.07. Yes, I have Kies installed with the drivers as well. I also looked into that heimdall one click, but there is too much stuff to do and download that my computer cant handle because it is really old so maybe if there is another way around this that would be helpful other than that I don't know what else to do.
Whatever you did that got it there... was perfect. If you had just flashed it once more when you got to that screen, your phone would have been working ever since.
Now? No clue what you've done with drivers and the like since back then. Try a one-click in a new USB port without installing any drivers?
Does the computer see the device and not Odin or do both see nothing (any beeps ?).
Are you doing the battery drop in while it's connected to the usb? Or booting it (into download mode) then plugging it into computer?
Which Rom are you trying to flash?
Windows should be able to do the one click. Which version (of Windows) are you using?

Odin only recognizes your port only if you actually in the download mode; the one with the picture of the android robot and the word 'downloading.' Here is what you need to do:
1) open Odin program;
2) remove battery from your phone;
3) plug USB cable into computer and your phone;
4) press the up and down volume keys at the same time;
5) As you hold down the volume keys, put the battery back on the phone, and wait for about 3 seconds. You should be able to see the download robot. If it doesn't work, try it again.

Well, if you plan to root your new phone in future, you are going to run into this issue again. Backing up the data won't help you get out of this jam. My advice to you is to use your new phone as is; don't try to root or install customize roms <<<---that was a painful experience, but I've mastered the timing to the point it takes only one try now.
If you are a first timer, it is not easy to get into download mode. You have to do a couple of times to get a hang of it. It becomes an art form - just like getting into DFU mode on an iPhone for first time.

I'm wondering why no one told OP to use Heimdall One Click back to stock KJ6...
Its really not that difficult dude! Its scarier than it really is . Trust when we tell you. Its gonna be more time consuming than anything else bout 2 maybe 3 hours ...this includes downloading, deleting, re downloading, connecting, disconnecting, "If u can get Odin to open and running on your old computer.You should be able to get Java, Bhundvens 1 click ..and Or Gremlin remover".!!! Kies is only good if you want the Samsung drivers once you've got your phone back to full fledge stock. If you want to save the $130 its gonna cost you for a phone through (Assurion)that in reality isn't worth buying again your better off using that towards a New phone trust me bro I'm no dev and don't speak they're language Lol (I wish) I personally know from frustrating trial and error! Believe that u can do it and when you do it you'll be like wow that's it!!! Just try being more cautious homez.
