Got a little question, any help would be verrry appreciated, uh I flashed cm9 on my infuse 4g from a red cwm and when I rebooted it got stuck on the samsung boot like it said it does, I battery pulled n retried it but it didnt boot up, so I booted into cwm recov. and it was all messed up, like a scrambled TV channel... I can't see anything, I tried to restore a backup just like from memory but it didnt work, I'm not sure which cwm version is used on cm9, but then I try to put it into odin mode and it doesnt go, can't connect to the cpu, doesnt go into odin mode, jus goes str8 to samsung screen and freezes. Anyone got any ideas? The scrambled cwm, from what I can make out, looks like its the one with the grey background... ne1 kno if thats the recovery cm9 comes with? Maybe I could restore my backup if I knew exactly how many times to press the volume up & down rockers and all that... idk. Again, any input'd b much appreciated

Sounds like you're still on GB bootloader..use Heimdall One Click by Qkster once flashed and return to stock GB rom then repeat procedure with tick mark on Flash Bootloader after that flash Entropy's kernel (all provided in the link) to get into red cwm then you can flashed your ICS rom after that.

Typo...I'm sure you meant he's not on GB boot loaders
Also to use Odin/heimdal you have to go to download mode not recovery
1) pull battery
2) put battery back in
3) hold volume up+down and plug in USB with out pressing power button
4) run Odin/heimdall

Cm9 uses the latest cmw (6.x.x) which is blue with gray background. You should be able to boot into download mode. Make sure you are doing everything correctly

Don't remember exactly and don't have a windows computer in front of me
But, plug your phone as if you were going to download mode
Don't unplug it even if it doesn't go to DL mode
Go to "my computer"
I think you go to system properties
There should be a thing under system properties for hardware, drivers or it might be advanced...don't really remember
Locate the infuse under usb ...it will probably be gadget serial, or something like that...to ease the process disconnect all other USB that way only your phone shows up
Double click it that should open up a window of the driver settings
Uninstall the drivers
Unplug your phone, go to the ISET page which is sticked in the dev section and download the infuse drivers (don't use kies...)
Its not necessary but i like to reboot after installing new drivers
Now try to connect to download mode
Good luck, I'll try and clarify those steps later

Yeah...Odin or heimdall...I did it with heimdall using qksters one click back to uclb3, I flasshed once left the program open, then ticked the flash bootloaders box, put.phone back in dl mode and flashed again
Here's a different set of instructions for heindall http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24901128
Will try and find some Odin instructions for bootloaders...not sure if just flashing a gb Odin will do the trick

Jscott has a gb bootloaders only odin pack that you can also flash if you feel positive about using Odin.
Be careful, a bad bootloader flash is the only thing that can really brick your phone for good.

Yeah I'm gonna try and uninstall then reinstall the drivers cause I still can't get into download mode the regular way, only way I can is using Aeon 4.1 and using the power button menu to get into it, but Odin still doesn't connect and my cpu says that the USB device I'm plugging in has Malfunctioned... Does anyone have a good trusted working site for the Infuse Drivers for windows?

Lol no oops typo. 1.4, but yeah Idk what's wrong my cpu keeps saying 'USB device not recognized' then it says the device has malfunctioned... you know how the drivers install on your phone when u plug it in after installing the drivers on ur cpu, I think my infuse got messed up when it was doing that, is there a way to delete the driver data from my phone? Cause my cpu will not recognize it, I've tried Odin, heimdall, Odin mode and kies, nothing works... I ttried restoring my phone to an earlier date, still no luck connecting .

Hey guys:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus (SGH-T989)
it seems to be different than other T989 i´ve seen by net.The firmewire that i have is T989WXLE4 and i don't find it anywhere.
The think is i try to flash with a rom (CM10) wich didn't work. When i flashed it everything was going ok until it stopped in the bootloader. From CWM i tried then to factory restore but i couldn't, also tried to flash it again, but it stopped in the middle of the process, Passes the same with all the items on the list of CWM except restore from a file. For my lucky i had the file, but the process also stopped in the adroid security thing.
Now i can star it in Android, but many things doesnt work like it should be, USB is one of those, the PC doesn't recognize my phone, either the phone recognizes the PC, but it charges. And i can not go odin mode, goes straight to CWM.
I need help guys pls on factory restore/stock.

I DId, but when restore the phone with that file, it works well untill a part it says "android security" then stopped in there, so i remove teh battery and then place it over again. Turn o the phone, and android works, but the same problems.
Ok so my phone is stuck on the "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." I have tried to flash a stock rom onto the phone but odin isnt even detecting it? I have it plugged in sitting on this screen with odin opened, but there isnt the [@com:x] message. I really need some help on how to get to download mode or how to flash another rom onto it.
Thanks

Yes i have read that on here multiple times, but odin will not detect the phone, although it did before, and even then, i would load the stock firmware into the PDA part of odin, but then when i hit start, it would stop at a point, then just idle.

Try a different data cable. Every issue I've ever had with Odin (or Kies for that matter) has been solved by ditching the stock cable and using some other random one I found. And that's exactly what would happen - it would connect, start up, and then just stop at a point.

Also try a different USB port, it worked for me before.

Remove all drivers from the USB port you plan on using for odin. This is a program I find very effective at that:
USB DEVIEW
Restart comp. Then follow the rest of Vincoms guide.
Alright so ive got the stock rom flashed over, but the phone is stuck on a rethink possible at&t loading screen loop. how do i get out of this to use the phone? (i have the phone plugged into the computer still)

Confirm if it is Soft or Hard bricked. If the tutorial for unbricking a soft brick works you are back to normal and it was just soft. If not, it is hard bricked :crying: .... That means you cannot bring it in since the warranty was voided after root. First try recovery mode and install another rom... It might work.

1. buy /borrow a usb jig (u can also make one) search xda.. There is a post with names of devs who can give usb jigs.. Search it
Usb jig forces ur phone into download mode.. Then use odin to install stock rom
2.use jtag repair...search on google..it's not good to fool samsung when mistake is yours!!

Or, if a jig doesn't work and you don't want to risk criminal charges for fraud, just have it JTAG repaired - many reviews on how fast and easy the process is and they don't care that you messed up the phone yourself.
Accountability is so cool. It's awesome not to try to screw people over because you made a mistake.

when i was flashing latest Tiwan Rom, it fails via odin. After it fails it's not going to download mod, recovery mod, no boot screen, it only shows that mark - A PC & a Mobile Phone & a CAUTION mark. like http://www.careace.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/bricked-galaxy-s.png
ITs hard bricked or softbricked, may its hard. HELP
It's not hard bricked. Get to the screen showing PC and mobile device with the working sign.
Load rom to be flashed with Odin connect the tab to the PC on diffrent USB port (or same, experiment with the ports) till Odin detects it (it should be detected easely)
The start the flashing process.
This happend to me in the past and i was able to fix it this way. Best of luck.

happened to me when flashing sungsonic (forgot the 2nd davlik wipe)
if you cant get to odin mode (happened to me too) because when you shut off the machine it just starts
your gonna have to plug it into the charger...
hold the power button to turn it off,
wait for the batter indicator to come on...
wait 10 sec...
hold the power button to turn it off again
as soon as it shuts down hold the volume down and power button...
this should kick it into odin mode...
samsung service man says, 6750 RS. hardware change must.......
want to from big devs like @codeworkx, @pg101 can u help me??
