I tried running Odin to unbrick back into recovery, but apparently didn't have the drivers installed (to my surprise). I hate to say it but I think I've reached the point of no return...any help would be very much appreciated.
Edit: I can't even get into dl mode and I don't have the samsung logo on the screen anymore...just a phone and computer logo.
May be you are not in dowload mode correctly.
For download mode:
1. remove battery
2. connect phone to computer
3. put battery
4. press volume up and down buttons only (no power button)
Try these steps, hope its helpful.
As far as the driver issue is concerned, downloading "Kies" is the easiest way. The phone doesn't actually work with the software, but the process of installing it will take care of any driver issues.
Search Kies in google to grab the download.
Try one click unbrick ^^ it work on mine

That is a download mode. It's just your Infuse saying man, something ain't right and I ain't going no farther.
Just install the samsung drivers, plug the phone in, let the drivers install and then run Odin.

That's the thing...odin would be a breeze, but I just can't get the right drivers for odin to id it...so I guess my solution would be to get kies to id my phone so I could dl the drivers and run odin, right? Easier said than done I suppose...
Thanks for the feedback guys, I really do appreciate it...
Don't plug in your phone at all. Open up Kies/Kies Mini or whatever you have, and under the options it should have an option to install drivers. Once they are done, close kies, reboot your computer, open up Odin with whatever you are flashing, and then plug your phone into download mode.

No, the program itself can install them without the phone, at least kies mini will. Or you can just download the driver from here:
32 bit drivers: http://www.mediafire.com/?0b45zo7o75rc5d5
64 bit drivers: http://www.mediafire.com/?3dh4d6up72me9re
It said I successfully dl'ed the drivers, yet nothing has changed...used kies mini, restarted my comp, and tried to sync, but it still can't recognize the phone...hate to admit it, but I think I've exhausted just about every solution I could find or think of :/
get rid of kies. it's a useless program. also if it's open odin might not work, even if it's open in the background like in the system tray.
the drivers are in the most logical place you could think of. on the samsung website under device support.
http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...445/SGH-i997_Infuse4G_USB_Drivers_5_2_0_2.zip
http://www.samsung.com/us/support/downloads/at-t/SGH-I997ZKAATT
use the samsung cable if possible, others should work but on the older moment/intercept style phones a specific cable seems to be required. it couldn't hurt to make sure you have the correct cable.
even if you have the phone + computer screen it doesnt automatically mean you are in download mode. you may still need to do the download mode proceedure from battery pull (to make 100% sure the phone is off before you start the proceedure)
the best way is to
1 open odin
2 pull battery
3 connect the cable
4 phone should be face down
5 hold the volume buttons at the same time
6 with volume buttons depressed slide the battery into place
now you may see dwnload or you may see phone + computer or you may even see a black screen but there is a good chance that if the drivers worked that you will see a yellow box in odin
good luck

I will try again, but for anyone else who has no other options and a tiny bit of cash there is some hope http://mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-infuse-4g-jtag-brick-repair/ .

Get UnBrickable mod. That works well. I use it whenever I put my device into download mode. Just send me a pm and ill do it for $30+shipping. UBM lets you upload download mode to a device regardless of its state. I spent alot of time researching the methods and I came up with the mod for this device not too long ago.
UBM is the best option. Here is a demo on a captivate. We rewrote the HIBL for compatibility with the infuse4g
Thanks for all the help guys, but absolutely nothing I tried was working and I was short on time and patience...so you gave in to the JTAG unbrick service. I couldn't stand to pay for a service that I was sure I could perform myself, but when it got down to it, I didn't have time to deal with I all. I can confirm that it is a legit service. Great communication and Josh does quick work of getting things working again...I'm a firm supporter of DIY, but if you do reach the point of no return like I did, it's a very reliable resource.

I did everything correctly then when i booted up my phone it wouldnt boot, it just stays on the samsung screen. When i plug it up it just shoes an empty battery and doesnt do anything.
Ive tried doing gtg's ultimate unbrick, but odin3 wont recongnize my phone and i have the drivers installed.

Ok well it does not work on either computer. I rooted the dang phone so i had the drivers then..... when i try installing other infuse drivers ive had it says that they are already installed, where earlier i removed it by using the uninstaller. I am soo stuck.
make sure u have heimdall uckj4 downloaded to your pc
make sure you are in admin user
turn off your phone
get a decent usb cord
plug it into a different usb than what you have been using
put your phone into DL mode ( pull battery, press vol up and vol down, plug in usb and replace battery)
make sure you have updated to latest java
run the 1 click
it may show disconnected
install drivers using zadig - move thru the selections, find android usb
if you have install correct drivers, it should show connected
flash it
after it flashed the first time
flash it the second time with the bootloader box checked
if it works correctly, you should be on uckj4 stock att gb
if it doesn't work, you can always drive your car over the phone and ask for a replacement

Problem: Cannot get my Samsung T959V to connect to the computer in order to flash/root. Always gives the same "USB Device Not Recognized" error when I plug it in to the computer.
My Progress: Before you guys throw this questions out, let me tell you what I have tried so far. I have been trying to get this damn thing connected to the computer for about 3 weeks now. I have sat down on my computer going through the xda forum in detail trying to find an answer. I know the process of flashing and the xda contributors have some great guides to help us along the way, a big thanks to all ur hard work, but no matter what, I cannot get the phone in download mode or get it connected to the computer.
* I have read the Download Mode post and tried all 5 ways without luck.
* Have read all things related to Keis Mini and how it sucks when it comes to the T959V and other ppl have had the same problem.
* Have tried connecting in Keis mode, usb debugging mode but still the same error.
If someone can help me get my phone connected to the computer, I am sure I can take of the rest since everything is available on the SGS4G Bible, thanks for that also.
Is there anything I have missed or not tried yet? Please help. Thanks in advance for anyone who reads this post as it is my first. Usually I don't have to post since all the documentation is always up-to-date and available but this problem is killing me
Additional Information: Bought the phone from a cell-phone store I use to work at. Has Android 2.3.6 on it. Have done the factory reset and tried to get it to connect, no luck. Not sure if it has been flashed before, pretty sure it hasnt but the flashed download mode method didnt work also. Have android-sdk installed and have tried pointing the .inf file to the google usb-drivers in the sdk, no luck. Download both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers for this phone from multiple locations, still no luck trying to connect. Have also tried multiple computers and multiple v9 cables, no luck.
Have you installed the Samsung drivers? You mention google drivers but samsung has it's own. You should be able to find them in the noobs guide to Odin thread. DL mode should work as well regardless of what drivers you have installed. Pull the battery, plug usb into computer, plug phone into usb, hold down BOTH vol + and -, insert battery. I've never not seen that method work.

Yup tried both 32-bit and 64-bit drivers on multiple computers. Tried the download mode method u said also. Trust me have tried everything I have read about and know, but no luck.
But the phone charges fine? Could be a bad USB port. Or partially bad. Have you tried a jig? If that doesn't work I'd say your hardware is screwed up somewhere.

A jig is a nifty little device that plugs in to your USB port on the phone and then gets you to DL mode. Their mostly used to recvover from bad flashes(like flashing the wrong phones kernel). Here's a link:

Awesome bro. I will see if I have time to make the jig, if not i will just order it.
Also, is there any way to flash/root without DL mode or USB debugging or using Keis? My recovery mode works but that's all. Was wondering if there was a way i could flash/root from the 'apply update from sdcard' option in the recovery mode?
Seems like a driver error have u tried one of the heimdall one clicks http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358498
They will put u back to stock with a modified rooted kernel .
If anything try and manually point to the drivers in device manager. Or download android sdk and use the google drivers ?

There was with Froyo but with GB it's all been put into the kernel. So not that I'm aware of. However one of the GB leaks changed the key mapping of the phone. I forget which one but that might be the issue. Go to settings>about phone>build number and let me know what that says. post the base band as well.

Well that is the official GB release so now I officially have no idea why you can't get into DL mode. Get the jig and let me know if that works. Good luck.

I downloaded the terminal emulator app and tried doing 'reboot download' but says 'operation not permitted,' any way to get around that? Or any other non-button or non-adb way to get into download mode? Other than the jig? Or is it possible to get su privileges on an unrooted device for the 'reboot' command to work in the terminal emulator app?
It's giving you "not permitted" because you don't have root. Have you tried Super One Click to root? If you can get SOC to root it you can use terminal to force DL mode.
If you haven't hears the link.
http://shortfuse.org/
DL 2.3.1. It should come with the android drivers as well. Worth a shot. If it doesn't work it doesn't damage the phone at all.

Im trying it now but for SOC to work, i have to have the proper drivers to get my phone connected. Will see whether the drivers that come with SOC work for my phone.
No luck with the SOC 2.3.1 drivers. They r the same as the android-sdk drivers
Will try the jig. Hope it works.

Im sorry I am having mouse issues that deleted part of my response..
Sometimes a residual driver will not allow you to properly install the drivers. I had a LG driver from my old phone that was conflicting with Samsung driver.
Also this is a new root process. I do not know if it will work or not. But Hell its worth a try right?

Are the drivers installed? This is usually the problem. If that is not the problem, it may be the USB Port or the USB Cable. Switching ports usually helps.

Unfortunately, i have tried both of those things. I have uninstalled and reinstalled samsung drivers from both kies and the samsung website. I have also tried switching ports with no avail. I have found out when i connect my phone in download mode in one port there will be a sound as if a device is connected but i cannot see the phone on my computer, on all other ports it will sound as if the device connected and then disconnected immediately. I have also tried using multiple versions of odin.

Yes! You hear the sound of the phone being connected. Have you checked any processes on your computer when that happens? Download Mode needs certain drivers (downloaded automatically) to be able to work with Odin.

Unfortunately, no other processes appear on my computer when connected. Would there be a way i could download the download mode drivers manually?

And uninstall kies from your computer. There is nothing useful about that app.

The 1st installation method did not work, so i went on to the the 3rd however when i look on device manager my phone is listed as an Android Device>Google Galaxy Nexus ABD Interface, when i try doing step 8 my computer says the drivers are already up to date. Going on details for the driver says its from ClockworkMod(my current recovery). Might this be why Odin cannot detect my device when in download mode? And if so how would i go about fixing this? Thanks for your help by the way

Hmmm. Another option could be just flashing to stock rather than using Odin. May I ask why you want to go back to stock? Are you returning your phone? If so, flashing a stock ROM should suffice..

Well yes, im soon going to be getting a new phone in May(any suggestions?? lol). However, since flashing Cyanogen Mod 10 i have had trouble getting calls. I cannot hear when the phone is dialing and if someone picks up on the other end i dont hear anything. Also, recently texts have not been working. I have seen that I am able to send texts but not recieve them, or if i do they will take a LONG time to come through and usually i will get all the messages at once.

First uninstall and reinstall the drivers for your phone. Get them from Samsung site just to be safe. also try redownloading odin from a different website, could be a bad download. and 'm assuming you have a good USB cable and good USB Ports.
also what model phone are you using? that's in settings--about device--model number

Hi, I'm kinda having the same problem the original poster is having.
My problem is, my windows 7 computers do not see the phone at all, no matter which cable/USB port I use. No beep, no trying to install drivers, no nothing. I'm assuming that unless windows sees the device to begin with... I won't be able to use kies or Odin or heimdall or adb or anything right?

ok, have you checked device manager to see if the phone shows up there? and you're right if it isn't being detected than you can't use it basically lol. I know sucks.
honestly, download the drivers manually and install them. If you're not sure how to check device manager or find the drivers google is you're friend :good: hope you get it working!

Drago, thanks for trying to help me, can't tell you how much I appreciate it bro. Now when it comes to windows, I'm no noob, I actually own a small business going out to people's houses and fixing their computer/WiFi/printer problems. So device manager, yeah I tried "scanning for new hardware" tried and tried, checked and checked, restarted, tried safe mode, tried using different administrator account, nothing. That's when I got this gut sinking feeling, what if something is wrong with the USB port on the phone.
It's a SM-S820L, galaxy core prime. No sound when I plug it in, nothing shows up in 'my computer', no tuh noon sound, and I remember back when the phone was working like normal, I tried to get a picture or two off of it by plugging it in while it was on, I remember it showed up in windows no problem, even without the drivers from Samsung installed. Now nothing happens, even though it says download mode.
I still need your help Drago, don't forget about me

alright well you have one of 3 issues then honestly.
1. phone USB port like you said
2. the PC/laptop USB or..
3.cable or driver issues.
make sure your completly uninstall the phones drivers in device manager while the phone is plugged into the PC. next unplug the phone, restart, reinstall actuall samsung drivers, than try pluggin in again. use a known working USB port also.
sorry I can't give you an answer that's the best I can think of, let me know how it goes!

You can try redownloading Odin and also running Odin as an administrator, that's been the case one in a while. lastly uninstall and reinstalling drivers could help. If this does'nt do it sorry, I'm all out of ideas.
I have same problem with Odin v4.42 and work with Odin3_v3.04,try different version of Odin.
