What i am about to say is assuming that youve also tried to get the phone into download mode with the correct button press combo without any success
if the phone is going to be recoverable by methods most normal xda users are able to physically do, then youre going to need a couple of things. First and foremost a charged battery. If the battery drained so much that it wont even boot anymore, then we wont be able to help much past that. If the battery is charged, but the phone still wont boot, then you might want to try a USB Jig. Amazon link to show you an example of a Jig. Jigs look like the end of an older style charging cable but without the actual cable part of it. They have jumpers in them shorting out 2 of the pins inside the connector which causes the phone to boot into download mode. You can make your own Jig if you cant locate one to purchase with this tutorial. That should get the phone into download mode and from there youre in a really good position to fully recover the phone to how it was before it crashed. Be prepared for the possibility that the phone is actually dead tho

Ok I was flashing back to stock 2.1 useind odin when mid process my phone fell battery out usb disconnected and bam thats it. Now my phone is locked on a screen that shows a picture of a phone ! and a computer. I can get it back to download mode and odin will se the phone but gets no further then do not unplug device, my computer beeps when its plugged in but it dose not show the phone in my computer section. Any fixes or am i screwed?
PS phone is only two weeks old if need be could I take it back like this????
Hmm I think I may hove gotten past this problem. Uninstalled odin reinstalled and now it seems to be hopefully working
Here is the fix
I was in this same situation yesterday. Here is how to get it back into download mode.
•Be sure the Samsung USB drivers for the phone are installed on your computer.
•Remove and replace the battery.
•Connect the phone to the computer with the USB cable. The "phone-exclamation mark-computer" picture should display on the phone's screen.
•Hold the Volume Up+Volume Down+Power buttons down simultaneously.The screen should go blank, then the picture should appear again. When the screen goes blank a second time, release the Power button while continuing to hold the Volume Up+Volume Down buttons down
If that doesn't work,i had a similar problem where I could get into odin, but it would progress beyond the pit file. Take the battery, sim and memory card out of your phone. Start odin. Put the battery only back in. hold volume up and down. Plug the phone in while holding these buttons. Don't let go until you are in download mode. Now try restoring. It should work.
Thanks for the input i am back up and running!!

Bricked replacement Captivate - Orange Screen
Just to let you know. I recently received a replacement captivate thru warranty exchange. The phone was apparently a new one with JF6. So I decided to do an update to JH7 using Kies mini. A little over half way to the update procedure, the phone screen turned orange and stayed there for a long time, eventually I had to pull the plug. Of course I had to manually go to download mode and launch Kies mini emergency recovery, the damn thing again got stuck at the orange screen.
If anybody has this experience do no proceed further and throw that damn thing back at At&T's face. Do not attempt to do anything. I made a mistake of then doing an ODIN one-click back to stop and the phone got stuck half way, went to the orange screen.. and then it was over.. The phone was dead, wouldn't turn on, no recovery or download mode with any button combo. When I plugged in to the wall, no battery indicator.
save yourself the trouble and return the damn thing
still there
I am a "noob" to posting here, and a noob to the android due to being an avid iPhone user. I am having the same problem, phone -!- computer and have tried every method i can find in this forum to get passed it. Are there any other thoughts or suggestions? (got hung at do not turn off target in odin) Thanks in advance to any help.
I would look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153310

went that route, still cant find dl mode. have resistors built and all. any way i try to boot shows me the phone -!- computer, and the computer doesnt attempt to recognise it so there is no communication between the computer and phone. unfortunately, i dont have a v/ohm meter, so i am not sure of the accuracy of the resistors i used to make my jig.
I fixed this many times with phone that had the button download mode and didn't.
Getting into download mode while softbricked like this wont show the normal download screen. IT will still show the error screen....
With download mode working still:
Simply remove the battery and replace,
Open odin
Hold down volume keys and plug it in till you see odin recognize ur phone.
Then continue to use odin.
Dosent work, repeat.
If you know ur button combo dosent work:
Just open odin.
Remove battery & replace.
Use jig (3k 100k ohms twisted)
Then when the phone turns on and your see the pc! screen plug in usb.
See if odin sees it.
Assuming your flash didn't fail on the PBL.bin or SBL.bin you should be fine.
Follow the methods suggested by other users here and you will get back up and running in no time at all.
Don't sweat the 'phone-!-pc' screen. I'm a little surprised that no one has given you the good news....that is just a version of the download screen for later hardware revisions. It looks bad, but if Odin recognizes your phone (if one of the COM fields goes active), just start your flash again.
Now if Odin does not recognize the phone when plugged in via USB, then you have some more work to do.
I had forgotten about posting here, and my problem has been resolved. So here it is... I tried everything that I could find within this forum, almost. I built my own jig with inferior radio shack components that would not activate download mode, though it would turn the phone on. I got wise, spent 8 dollars at ebay and purchased a JIG there. Instant download mode after 3 days (shipping). Reflashed with one click, updated w/ kies, made kernal changes and am now rockin my captivate. Thanks to those who assisted.

Using the 3-resistor method takes A LOT of patience, at least in my experience. Glad everything worked out.

Patience is a virtue, and my Ex's name. LOL! I can do without patience.
Jokes aside, i actually soldered the resistors to a plug that i had cut up, and made sure it was covered so my skin wouldnt come in contact. The Radio Shack here buys inferior products and sells them at reggular retail. Unfortunately my $300.00 V-Ohm meter is on the fritz, and i have not had the time or money to replace it yet, but I have intentions to check the actual resistance of the jig I made. ^^
Im trying to explain everything to prevent unneeded questions
I have viewed several threads about this but absolutely none with an answer. My Samsung Infuse 4g with at&t (nonrooted) is in a bootloop. The cause of this was my every-other-day reboot. Once I turned it back on it goes to the samsung screen for about 5 secs, then goes black, then says samsung again and so on repeatedly. I pull the battery and as soon as it makes contact back with the phone it turns on by itself into the same Samsung screen over and over. When plugged into wall or computer it will show the charge screen where there is no battery life left, then it will flash and start up the charge screen again and so on just like the samsung screen. I cannot go into download mode (the buttons, at this point, do nothing. No response)
I have tried taking the battery out and plugging in usb cable to computer, then holding both volumes and putting battery in=charging loop
↑ with volume up=charging loop
↑↑ with volume down=charging loop
computer doesnt detect it, adb cant find it, cannot go into download mode, odin cant see it, heimdall cant see it, cant actually boot into anything, cant leave battery in or else phone will restart itself the entire time, and this was caused by my (already gbread) infuse 4g doing a regular reboot (aka power button, tap power off, after phone is confirmed off take battery out, battery back in, turn on)
Recommendations at this point? on a scale from 1=noob to 10=expert im a 7 on this type of thing. Ive always heard that as long as you can boot into a picture its only soft bricked but if i was right i wouldnt be here. Any and all help would be much appreciated. If you need me to post a video I would have NO problem doing that showing everything im doing.
oh, and by I have viewed several threads about this i meant that i have only been able to find 1 thread about it and 2 links that didnt work for me but might for you

You might have already tried this way, but I've always held down both volume buttons first before plugging in the USB cord - not the other way around. You can also try different cords, different USB ports and/or different computers.
Mine was doing this the other day and it turned out to be my SD card being flaky. Maybe try taking it out and booting?

Ive tried a hp touchpad cord, an atrix cord, and the original cord. I cant really do the button combo because as soon as the battery makes contact the phone turns on. thats why i had the usb cord in first to see if it worked. ive tried every usb port and 2 different laptops, the computer wont recognize it if the phone wont go past the samsung start up screen

I've taken the card out and used a different card, nothing. Tried taking sim card out, nothing.
I should have been clearer. Leave the battery out of the process until after attaching the cord and the screen coming up.

I do, every time.
1. battery out
2. hold down volume buttons (any combo)
3. attach cord (nothing happens, no screen, nothing)
4. put battery in
Results= Charging loop

should be the same...wonder if you battery needs to be charged first, it should be fully charged at best...to do any flash/Odin/one click
this how I do it...basicly the same..
>take batt out
>plug in usb cable...to both phone and computer
>hold both volume buttons...NO NOT HOLD THE POWER BUTTON....
>put batt in...
and bam should see the android dude shoveling in yellow triangle...
If you get no response from the usb without the battery, and inserting the battery indicates the battery needs charging - I'd suspect the phone's usb port. Especially after trying different cords & computers.

Have you tried a jig you can buy them on ebay for 6-12 bucks or you can donate one of you old cables and make it your self..

Hello.
I have the same problem... tried also everything now i gave it to cellphone shop, i hope you guys can give me answer before i am gonna waist $100
HELP?1
Help me please
I was in this state. There are two options I can think of. A JIG as mentioned previously or the Heimdall One-Click-Unbrick. The one-click unbrick did it for me and got me back to cmw and download mode, then i could flash to stock, root and flash up to ICS. It was really easy and I stopped sweating once it booted to cmw instantly after running it.
Joe
hello.
The problem is when i connect it to my computer its keep disconnecting and doing terreble noise, (windows noise) when you keep connecting and disconnecting USB cable
JIG DIDNT WORK, because the same problem.... maybe the chargging connect is broken? or has a corrosion?

Thanks ✟
Moving to Q&A
Sounds/Looks like a hardware issue...
Did it get any water damage in the past?
Hope you got warranty or still under warranty.
I am having exactly the same problem. My Infuse has never been rooted or unlocked (quite ironically, I was about to root it for the first time).
Boot loop when not plugged in, charge loop when plugged in. Absolutely no combination of buttons, inserting/removing the battery, and/or plugging/unplugging the USB has gotten it to do anything.
This has happened several times over the past few days. The first few times it sorted itself out in an hour or two. Today I couldn't get it to do anything at all.
I found several posts by people who have this problem, and it has never been conclusively solved from what I've seen. Finally one person said they fixed it by lightly smacking the phone with their hand. Lo and behold, it came on for about 5 minutes before looping again. So I smacked it again, and before it could re-loop, I factory reset it. A few hours went by and I was convinced that it was fixed.
A few minutes ago I had it plugged in to my computer via USB and was getting ready to SuperOneClick it. Then it went back into loop. I can't get it to come on this time. Again, no combination of buttons will send it into download mode. The computer can't see it. The battery is charged. The USB cable and port are fine. The software was reset earlier today. Does this mean that I have a hardware problem, or is there a software issue that could be fixable?
EDIT: So I decided to try hitting the power button, something that had never worked to this point, and the device came on. A couple minutes later it went back to boot loop. On a whim I tried download mode, which had stubbornly refused to work all day. Of course it immediately worked. Not really knowing what to try, since I'd already wiped user data, I wiped cache data and formatted the internal SD. Then I told it to reboot. Back to boot loop. A few minutes later, it came back on with the power button. Two minutes later, boot loop again. Then it restarted of its own accord. And now back to boot loop. I just don't even know anymore.
EDIT2: Just a thought... Something is weird with the power button. Whenever the phone is on and I hit power (briefly, not holding it down), it goes to the shutdown menu as though I'd held it down. A few seconds later, I'm always back in boot loop.
Infuse loop
I have found the problem. It is, in my case, the power button. I removed the case and crossed terminals with a paperclip. BAM. Booted up, and when I removed the paper clip.... back to boot loop at Samsung logo.
There is a place to send the phone. Ive see great reviews.
mobiletechvideos.mybigcommerce.com/samsung-infuse-4g-power-button-repair/
Seems like there has been a string of power button malfunctions going around lately. There are a few threads going on where people have had this issue. Sometimes its just the terminals needing to be cleaned or dust blown out.
Hi,
I flashed a rom that did something bad to my phone. After reboot it just stays black without any response at all.
I've tried all the key combinations and just tried the USB Jig (confirmed the jig worked on my S3) but nothing.
Is there any way to get into download mode?
I've heard about JTAG, but not sure if that will work.
First, try to connect the phone to your charger to see if any LED lights up, if this doesn't happen, try connecting the phone to your PC and see if ODIN detects the device, if that also doesn't work...the best course of action would be to send it in for repair, although chances are you've hardbricked it.

Possible it is stuck in some sort of loop, without having any LED to indicate it would be impossible to know
The charger doing nothing seems strange though
If you had an LED showing I'd suggest waiting for the battery to drain then trying to enter download mode again, but I guess if you've tried everything else and are considering opening it anyway for a JTAG, then disconnect the battery first, see if you can get back in after reconnecting it

Yea tried all that but no luck.
I will try for the JTAG, but need a heater I doubt a hairdryer will be enough to pull the back off.
Also need the JTAG machine itself
opened the phone and removed battery but still nothing, it seems JTAG is the only way.
anyone knows how that works?
Are you getting some sort of output?
I'm using the Exynos variant, I've yet to encounter anything that wasn't solved by holding power+vol down+home for 40-50 seconds (it'll boot to download mode eventually usually)

Tried for one minute and no result.
No output at all, nothing gets recognised in windows. No LED, no nothing...
Well, some users also reported sudden blackout with no response at all, it turns out it was an emmc failure. He then proceeds to send in his phone and luckily, it was replaced. Your mileage may vary, you could try playing "dumb" with Samsung. After all, with the phone dead there's no solid way to tell if KNOX was tripped.
Hello,
I am quite familar with samsung devices and flashing etc. but my friends phone died today I suppose. At some point it got stuck and got into a bootloop. After some reboots it tried to find a ota update.zip, but there was none. After some tries I got into download mode, but flashing a stock image (was stock before as well, never seen root or something) did help at first (it booted, we backupped some stuff) but at some point it got stuck into bootloop again.
This time, when going into recovery, it tried flashing a firmware again, however this ended badly (freeze while flashing). Now it's not even charging anymore. Not a single button combination is working (force reboot, recovery, download mode, ...) and when plugging into a power bank, it doesn't even charge anymore (power bank shows if a device is charging). So it's completely back and unnoticed by odin, adb or fastboot. Does anyone know this problem or have an idea, what we could try? My last idea would be to test a wireless charger, which i sadly do not have at hand.
Thanks!

If it's not showing any signs of life and will not charge then it's a hardware problem, you should start with the obvious like the usb connector. You are going to have to open the phone and check usb connection, battery connection etc. but it may be easier to take to repair shop.

but when it died the first time, i was able to flash the stock image; after it rebooted, it was charging perfectly fine until it died again. from that point on, i was not able to get any sign of life anymore... maybe something crashed that badly and it's still running and i have to wait for the battery to completely drain, so it can do something again? or is the charging process completely hardware dependent, so a crash shouldnt do anything?

the way to test if it has power but blank screen is to hold power+volume down+home. If it has power it will turn off and boot into download mode
After the Forst Crash all such combinations didnt Seen to work either. Once odin recognized is while having a black screen. At that point I flashed stock :/ but still, not even the led was showing something
I wanted to factory reset my phone as one of my friends needs it for a few weeks/months,
phone shut down, went into twrp, shut down again and now its completely dead.
No way to get any signs from it, I dont get any response from my screen when plugged in to charge and the LED does not light up either.
Plug in wall wont work, PC connection wont work, Powerbank not working and wireless charging doesnt get any repsonse either.
Its just straight up dead, if there is nothing I can do then oh well its my old phone anyways, would still be grateful for any help tho as my friend is in a hard situation rn.
Ty in advance to everyone trying to help.

two ideas come to mind, 1: a jig and 2: debrick image
jigs should still be a very viable option for situations like these, however might be fruitless and i cant remember if this phone has an expandable memory slot or not. I know they ditched a few things on the S6 that were like VGN "what were they thinking???" but cant recall if that was one of them
