I'm a noob and I tried to install 3e recovery using the instructions and video supplied in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105413
Everything seemed to work fine until I went into ROM manager and tried to backup current ROM (stock, rooted). I selected backup ROM and now my phone is sitting with the SAMSUNG logo and it hasn't moved from that in almost an hour. I'm not sure what to do to get the phone to boot up normally. I have done a battery pull but that didn't work. When I plug the phone into my computer, XP does recognize that is plugged in because it shows the internal and external sd cards in the My Computer window. I can't open either on by double clicking on the icon for each drive. I'm getting pretty desperate because I can't seem to figure out how to get the phone to boot normally. Any help and/or suggestions would be most helpful. Thanks!!!
Odin flash to stock in dev section
try a hard reset. you shouldnt pull batteries unless it is the last resort, linux needs to unmount the file system.
a hard reset(different from a factory reset) is accomplished by holding the vol up +vol dn + power at the same time untill the phone reboots. if you wait till the samsung screen pops up again and immediately release you may also enter 3e recovery mode.
try to just boot the phone into the ui first. if it is still ok, go into rom manager and "flash cwm recovery" choose captivate or i9000. reboot into 3e recovery(blue text), (select reboot recovery not backup) reinstall packages twice! you should now be at a green text cwm recovery. once you get it setup the backup link in rom manager should work.
if the phone fails to boot up after a hard reset, you can attemp to clear user data in 3e recovery. you can get to 3e with phone off(you may pull battery now if you need to) hold vol up+ vol dn + pwr and hold untill you see the "samsung" screen. then you can clear data/factory reset
if that doesn't help you can still use odin/heimdall to restore the phone with one of the roms that may already have modded 3e recovery and other nice features.
Thanks for all your help! I managed to get it back working using Odin. Now I'm on the Infused ROM and loving life. I'm going to save this post just in case I get into trouble again down the road.

So u should use gtgs ultimate unbrick then follow this.
1: Root using super one click
2: Download 3e recovery save it to your SD card
3: Use root explorer to move the 3e recovery file to systim bin overwrite recovery file
4: Reboot phone
5: Download Rom manager and click flash clock work mod pic i9000 not the (mtd)
6: Once its done select reboot in recovery
7: In recovery click RE-INSTALL it should load then click re-install again and u should get green cwm then reboot and flash away

This is an old useless method... just Odin flash the community kernel v8... done..

I have had that same boot screen problem too, buy a jig and u can put it into download mode that way then when you use odin3 to restore stock, u can get the stock rom with the recovery in it for u and u just need to download the update.zip on rom manager and then go into recovery and run the update zip twice. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1092021
You should get a jig (http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw...dkw=jig&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313) its a life saver in my opinion. because u can restore ur phone if u ever mess up.
I too am stuck at the Samsung logo. I've used Odin to revert to stock but I think the Stock I reverted to was AT&T rather than Rogers? I can't seem to find the Rogers stock. I've tried to get it into recovery mode, taking out the battery booting with power up and down, releasing power when the Samsung logo came up - no good, the logo stays. I'm at a loss? Any advice? Is the a full raft of pit / pda etc files for Odin that I can make the Rogers Infuse as it was day one?
Thanks for any help
I'm in the same boat... maybe it's because the rogers infuse comes as android 2.3? I hope a solution comes out soon!
Same here, Rogers Infuse. Stuck at Samsung logo. Tried infuse odin recovery, and community. Still no go. I tried flashing all the different stock/unbrick roms but nothing.
However, if I install Infused kernel/recovery, i can access the recovery and do a wipe/lagfix.
I was trying to flash to Infused and when I got to the step where the phone rebooted to CWM recovery it hang on the Samsung logo. After about 3 hours of trying various button resets the phone booted normally (ie not to CWM). They say the definition of insanity is trying the same thing over and over and expecting different results, well I went back through the same steps to flash to infused and again it froze on the Samsung logo, only I have no idea what I did last time to get it to boot normal, not to CWM. Since it did it before, there must be a combination...anybody know what it might be. I've read and tried everything on the forums. Thought I'd post here prior to using Odin. I am able to get to downloading screen by doing the button/USB cable combo.
I'm headed out of town and won't check this right away, but thanks for any posts with ideas.

Rogers Infuse users need to use the UXKG3 unbrick, not the UCKD5 or E3 unbricks.
The UXKG3 variant tends to fall to the second or third pages of the dev forum since it's far less commonly used.
Holy Crap - im hooped without my phone for work...!

Hi guys,
Here is the solution for this issue.
Just flash with this package that will totally reset your Infuse 4G to UCKJ4, do it with linux that worked for me.

The few last posts have mirrors. You are gonna need the odin pack to flash back to stock and then work your way up.
You need to flash ICS before flashing JB.
Infuse 4G wont boot - no root, CWM, Passcode locked
Hi guys
I dont know where to start from. This Infuse 4G was dropped by the owner and we happened to come across it.
Checked the SIM card but that was already deactivated and there were no contacts on it.
Then we wanted to check the phonebook and find someone to contact, but the phone was passcode locked.
Then i went and flashed Odin_Community_Kernel_v8.zip since it was on GB, but it doesnt seem to be booting. I was planning on adb-ing into it when it was in recovery (CWM) so that i could delete the passcode and find a way to get in touch with the owner.
Now am stuck at the Samsung logo...:crying:
I think I bricked my tab 2 (gt-p3113) it keeps on looping at boot, I recently flashed cm10 on it then flashed stock rom (it was laggy, so I tried flashing clockworkmod recovery to reinstall cm10) after flashing clockworkmod, it kept on looping. I don't know what the problem is, please help.
UPDATE: I kept on pressing random buttons to reach download mode, but I need a stock rom + stock recovery (this rom was 4.0.3) for my device (samsung-updates site is moving servers or so)
I downloaded my stock rom from this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645295&page=3 it's laggy + apps kept on crashing)
I need a new stock rom because flashing clockworkmod recovery on this rom always causes a bootloop, I want to install cwm recovery to restore my data.
first, try to download the stock recovery from sammobie.com , put it on your external sd & then try to re install CWM via odin, wipe your data and everything (if you're returning from CM10 to stock one) and then re-flash the stock ROM, hope this might help you

I couldn't find it on sammobile, but I googled it (794MB, downloading..) I think the problem was that I flashed cwm for 4.0.4 (seeing as I had 4.0.4 before cm10) then the stock rom I flashed was 4.0.3 (I can't update my device via OTA, idk why)
I'm just afraid the newest firmware I'm downloading lags and so, because the one I downloaded earlier (the 4.0.3 one) keeps lagging and force closing apps.
UPDATE: I flashed it, works perfectly fine, now I'm on my way to flash clockworkmod recovery and to root it in order to run cm10, but is there a way I can ONLY flash the stock recovery back? the md5 file I downloaded contains recovery.img is there a way I can flash it in odin without the whole ROM?

Your Tab is not bricked. A bricked Tab / Phone will not turn on. There won't be any response from the device, whatever you do. Because, I bricked one of my friends Mobile.
All you need to do you is, to install a proper firmware on your Tab 2. PM me if you need any help.
Mine started acting like it was bricked. Refused to turn on. I held the power button for 2+ minutes, nothing. Then I let it charge for 4+ hours and tried to turn it on, again, nada. I then unplugged it and held the power button and it booted. The first time the screen went to sleep it would not respond again. Plugged the cable in for a minute, then unplugged and it started. Battery was at 90%. It is on it's way back to Samsung now. They say 7-10 business days, we'll see.
I was rooted with CWM recovery. I odin flashed stock with root injected and then flashed via odin stock kernel and recovery. At this time I was able to pull the update and the device restarted to install. Upon 100% completion the device rebooted as I woudl expect but upon reboot it goes right back into the install, hits 100% and does the same thing. It appears Im stuck in a update boot loop. Has anyone else experienced this?
I did a odin restore with Stock 8013.tar with root injected but upon reboot once odin completes it goes right back into this update loop. Someone please help!!!!

Ok I'm backup and running. I had to flash "HighonAndroidCWMRecovery" via odin to get past the update loop. Any ideas why this woudl be? I'm running stock with root and custom recovery. If I flash stock recvoery again and attempt the update do you think the same thing will occur?

I have tried to press the power and down volume and I either get the Black welcome screen stuck, requesting I download the md5 file (which I have tried and doesn't work) or asks to use Kies to boot, but my laptops won't even pick up the device, they recognizes that there is a new device connected but it can't read it!
In the top left hand corner it reads

I have same Problem
My only response would be to go to sammobile and download as close to shipped rom as you can (must be for your region and carrier, if from carrier), updated rom is fine. Make sure the download ISN'T corrupted by doing an MD5 check.. Also before f;lashing, make sure you exit KIES as this can screw up the connection in ODIN.
Put in Download mode, hold down volume and power until it says a scary warning, ignore the warning and press up volume.
Flash with ODIN making sure re-partition ISN'T ticked, when it finishes flashing turn off power.
Go to recovery by holding up volume and power button until it goes into recovery.
Wipe data/cache and then wipe dalvik cache.
Reboot and see what happens.
Good luck.

Not working, not go the Recovery Mode, Only Samsung Logo.
I'm having similar issue as Odin keeps failing when trying to flash ROM.
Does anyone know the commands to do it through ADB? I've done it before on my nexus7 but don't know the commands to exactly use for the note. I still can't get into recovery. Only can get into that ODIN mode. I have all drivers and Android ADB installed on PC.
It seems like nothing will write to the NAND. Although my flash count changes now showing my attempts. I might have no choice but to call Samsung and file a warranty claim. I just don't want to lose all the pictures and info that's in my tablet.
Well I got my tablet back yesterday from Samsung. They fixed it. The report showed they replaced some piece that burned out. I forgot the name of it. Unfortunately all my info and stuff was erased. So I had to reinstall everything manually. At least my tablet working like new again. So glad to have it back. Been like a month or so since I've been able to use it. My nexus 7 and galaxy s3 was holding me down in the meanwhile.
This note is a great device. IM seeing again why I've missed it so much. Works flawlessly on stock Tom.
I'm having issues getting recovery to work on a Verizon version xoom. I first flashed CWM version 4.0.0.4. The first time I tried to boot into it, it was stuck on the android with the red triangle for a long time before finally getting into it (coincidentally when I was hitting the volume key, don't know if that's related). Anyway, since then I haven't been able to get into it. It will be suck on the red triangle screen for a minute or two before rebooting into the stock rom (I'm running stock ICS). Since then, I've tried flashing the new TWRP 2.2.2 or whatever version it is and it has no effect. It's still doing the same thing. Any clue what's wrong?
So what I'm reading is suggesting that the android guy I'm seeing is the stock recovery. I'm not sure how that's happening. I'm installing the recovery using fastboot on my PC and being in the bootloader on my xoom. The prompts on both appear to confirm success.
I haven't tried this yet as I'm at work, but I think I've got the issue sorted. The following is what appears to be happening from what I've read.
1. I've still got the custom recovery stalled. When the Android guy pops up, one needs to press volume up to enter the options. Otherwise, it reboots.
2. The recovery flashes are taking because I'm booting back into the rom after a flash. The system's built in recovery protection is re-flashing the original recovery at that point.
3. To make my CWM/TWRP/whatever flash stick, I'll need to power down and then boot directly into the recovery.
I'll post again tonight to say if this works. Hopefully this thread can help out others who have the same issue.

So I was trying to get HyperDrive running on my phone and had flashed it a few times. I was using TWRP to flash and accidently picked Format for the wipe. Then I flashed Liquid Rom. Realizing it was more of an AOSP rom I tried flashing Hyperdrive again. Again being stupid hit the Format wipe. Then when I tried flashing the rom it flashed but when it rebooting the splash/loadscreen for the rom just continuously played. Also I can no longer access TWRP. I tried using ODIN to put a stock rom on again, but I meet the same problem of the continuously loading screen.
Help Please? I'm slowly losing it...
Take the battery out then replace it then hit the power button and home button and volume up and try to get to recovery

did it and it goes to the samsung with the unlocked lock and says on the top "booting recovery" then goes black vibrates and then reboots
Okay I finally got it working. Not sure what caused it but it seems flashing a ODIN package that supported recovery worked its magic. From there I was able to access the stock recovery and then Flashed an ODIN package containing a stock rooted rom.
