I Totally have to agree the epic 4g is clearly a better phone if you screw up with it or something i have always been able to reset it and sprint techs not even having a clue i did that.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] h8rift:
This will flash the stock kernel, modem, system, dbdata and cache. There's no need for a pit since we do not have any other OS versions to flash yet that would re-partition your device.

Instructions:

1) Make sure the drivers for the Infuse 4G are installed.

2) Please unzip the .zip file.

3) Run Odin3 v1.81.exe (as administrator if you are on Windows 7)

4) Place your phone into download mode (pull battery, press and hold both Volume keys, put battery in and plug the USB cable in)

5) Make sure your phone shows up in Odin as COM##

5) Click the PDA button and choose the .tar.md5 file in the .zip.

6) Press Start.

7) After it completes, it will reboot your device and should boot up like normal. If it fails on flash see FAQ Question 4 below!

There is ALWAYS risk when flashing your device. Unfortunately, I will not be held responsible. Please use this as a means to get back to stock if something happens.

* DO NOT FLASH PIT (PIT not included).

* DO NOT CHECK ANYTHING IN ODIN EXCEPT "AUTO-REBOOT" AND "F. RESET TIME" (should be checked by default)

FAQ:

Question 1: Why does it have .md5 at the end?

Answer: Its in md5 format so in case your download is corrupted, you dont brick your phone.

Question 2: Can I rename it to just .tar and flash?

Answer: DO NOT rename it from md5 format. If it says the md5 sum is invalid, then it will not flash. Just re-download again and try again.

Question 3: Why does it give an error if i try to open in in 7zip/WinRAR/WinZip?

Answer: It should! Windows doesn't recognize when an md5sum is written to the end of a file. Don't panic!

Question 4: It passed the md5sum check, but failed writing on factoryfs. What do I do?!?

Answer: This is exactly what happened to me. Don't panic. Follow these steps exactly:

* Hold the power button to turn off.

* Make sure Odin is still open.

* Plug the USB cable in and hold the volume keys down at the same time. You will be on the screen with a "Phone ! PC" screen.

* Press Start on Odin.

* Once it completes, it will boot up into recovery. Don't worry about wiping cache or user data. Just choose "Reboot Device".

This flash takes quite a long period of time due to the size of the files. I'd say it took me 5 - 10 minutes for the flash to complete. Be patient! Afterwards it booted up with recovery, and chose Reboot Now.

Thanks:

* codeworkx - for the advice and assistance!

* beatblaster - First tester after a bad framework-res update.

* Realityfalse - Second tester

* dotsad - Third tester

* imnuts - Very Helpful advice and instructions for Odin installations!

same thing what i have to do ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
well use the .tar file in this thread, put it in the pda slot in odin. put the phone in download mode and connect it to the computer. have auto reboot selected. and hit start.

if that doesnt work then try it again except put pit.pit in the pit slot and the .tar from this thread in the phone slot, select repartition, put phone in download mode, connect it to the computer and hit start.

did you fix your phone and work fine now or still his lock Bootloader ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
no it was someone else. i have fixed my captivate many time though. that would have normally been my next step if it didnt work the first time.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] h8rift:


Can you wipe all user data and wipe cache from recovery (power phone off via power button or battery pull, hold both volune keys down, then hold power down until samsung appears on the screen and let go of ONLY power)? That should get you to boot.

This happened to beatblaster when we tested. Then he did the data wipes in recovery and booted up fine.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rblankman:
cant get recovery at all. tried all above. pit doesnt work
[Samsung Infuse 4G] tnayrbj:
Thanks

Thanks for doing this, I am trying to learn how to dev on android and Ubuntu and was installing and also waiting for a way back before doing anything.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] beatblaster:
Have you tried to wipe data and cache yet?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] h8rift:
Was your phone bricked before trying this? If so, how did you brick it?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rblankman:
wasnt bricked. wanted to try odin restore.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rblankman:
how can I clear data and cache without recovery? is there a way in ODIN?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] beatblaster:
TO get into recovery to wipe data and cache, unplug your phone from the USB cable then make sure the phone is powered off. While the device is powered off press and hold the 2 volume buttons then while holding those 2 volume buttons down press and hold the power button. That will get you into recovery. WHile in there, you can wipe user data and wipe cache. Give that a go.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rblankman:
understood. However, as I was able to successfuly get into recovery by that method before attempting the ODIN restore, It will not enter recovery after ODIN flashed the stock.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] beatblaster:
Whoa. The only thing I can recommend from here is to try to flash via ODIN again or take the brick back to the store and swap for new. Next time, I'd recommend not fixing anything unless it's broken ;)

Ok.. I want to go back to stock Froyo. I truely regret dwnl the GB update. What would be the right way to do this. I've read two different ways. 1st is using odin and flash Stock UCKD5 root +3e recovery and not use partition. Would this be the right way to go.. actually I just want to get rooted.. adds going crazy on my screen. Thank you.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AbstractMind87:
Yup, that would be the right way. You could flash a new modem afterwards if you installed ROM Manager and flashed Clockworkmod Recovery. There is a Infuse Super Thread that has a list of mods, roms, tweaks, and modems, kernals too. Be sure to check that out. That may have brought you here actually
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Just flash h8rift stock froyo with recovery. Or flash Gtg unbrick and use soc to root.

Hi guys,

I'm trying to help a friend to get started with a custom ROM for an Infuse.

1-Can someone please point me where to find the PC drivers for this phone?

2-His phone has 2.2.1 firmware, can he flash straight to a Custom Gingerbread ROM?

So far I can get his phone in download mode but it doesn't show up in the Odin Com.

Thanx for your help!

Edit: 1-Found the drivers.

2-Flashing GB anyway...

Ran the process in the OP and everything worked and ODIN gave a pass but phone rebooted into recovery and will only reboot into recovery. Tried wiping and also went throug the process 3 times. End result is still the same. Will only boot into Stock Recovery. Can anyone help
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Screwed up partitions.

Heimdall 1 click packages to "unbrick", heimdall kernel for recovery. Thank me later once you understand.

:)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] scottcwhite:
It was actually the link in the OP. It is no good. I went to the Infuse Super Thread and click the one link for the YouTube video of how to GTG, etc. and downloaded the files provided below the video. Reran Odin usin those and worked first time. Now back at Stock 2.2 from stock 2.3

Only problem now is that SOC will not root the damn thing. One of my employees bought 2 Infuses on Monday. Both 2.2 stock brand new. I rooted the first one for him and got Zues ROM running on it 30 minutes.

2nd phone has been nothing but a pain in the ass. Did it just like the first and nothing has worked. I put it to stock 2.3 and that didn't work, I've had 7 bricks already in the process of trying to get this thing rooted. Now I finally got back to stock 2.2 and back to square one. Z4 root app wont root it, SOC isn't working, I don't know what else to do. Is there a package mthat can be run through ODIN that will root it ?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] rxnelson:
Hmmm....Never heard of SOC not working on 2.2. Check qksters thread for heimdall one click WITH entropy DD.

Edit: should have said stock heimdall uclb3 then entropy dd. Sound like you are still on froyo after reading again. I'm not sure if you can heimdall that kernel and then pull battery before boot to get to red. Stock heimdall uclb3 only takes a few minutrs anyway.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1524081

That should allow you to get to red cwm and then flash whatever.

How is slim and glitch?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] scottcwhite:
Ok, here's what I did that for whatever reason worked and got SOC working. Went into device driver and noticed I had "android Composite Driver" with yellow triangle alert but also under USB drivers had anoth samsung usb device showing that it was working properly. So I uninstalled the first one and tried SOC again and presto it rooted.

Then I used the recovery download from the super thread for modded 3e, replaced in system/bin, rebooted AND MY HELL BEGAN AGAIN. BRICK #8. Would only boot to "samsung screen". Could not get to any recovery or reboot. Luckily I was still able to get into download mode. So back to researching. Finally after countless hours I found the thread for the "Community Kernel" Flashed in PDA with ODIN and viola, Red CWM. Installed Zeus ROM and this piece of crap is done. Rooted two Infuses for this guy and he is not getting this one back till I have at least 50 cash in my hand.

And SLIM ICS with Glitch is literally perfection on my Cappy. Other than gaining screen size I have no reason to buy anything currently on the market

Hello, my phone is stuck in "firmware upgrade encountered and issue. please select recovery mode in Kies and try again." Odin recongnizes the device, but it gets stuck on "<ID:0/004> SetupConnection.."

Bricked - Help!

I have an unrooted phone and I saw that the official at&t GB was released. I installed kies mini and attempted to upgrade. After it downloaded the update, my phone showed the "Downloading to phone" do not turn off message in yellow and I waited. Shortly after, the kies mini showed a message that my phone could not be updated but my phone still showed the downloading screen. I waited an hour but nothing was happening and according to the steps shown on kies mini, I removed the battery, waited for a bit reattached and tried to boot. nothing. I then tried to use the emergency recover and that failed as well. I tried the power+vol up and down button and the screen showed pixelated "rainbow" colors. Panic in full force.

I downloaded odin 1.71 full recovery and the phone showed as 0:[com4]. I selected the pit ,pda and phone and clicked on start. It's been about 12 minutes now and the screen only shows (after the md5 verification etc) to be stuck on "<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..". Any advice?

Oh yeah, if I don't respond tomorrow, my wife probably killed me. it's her phone.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] scottcwhite:
Did you root it prior to odin ? Also you stated above that you selected the pit ,pda and phone and clicked on start. The only thing you you should be flashing is the tar file in the PDA slot. Nothing else
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mallikg:
No, my phone is not rooted. Anyways, I let the phone sit thru the night to see if it will update but it never did (it sat on the SetupConnection.. screen). The screen was dead in the morning so I thought it might have run out of battery - plugged it into the wall and tried getting into the download mode. it wasn't even doing that even after an hour of being plugged in. Going to the store later today and see if I can get a replacement.

the thing that frustrates me is the fact that this is an unrooted phone and going thru the kies software to update which bricked it. Had I tried rooting and installing using ODIN, I probably would have had better luck with it.

Hope I can convince AT&T to replace the phone. Thanks for your advice and if you have any other suggestion, I am willing to give that a shot. I did have an old iPhone 3g phone which is now working with the sim card as a temporary phone until we get this replaced but, yeah, I am no longer allowed to "upgrade" my wife's phone.

Guys........there is NO need to repartition! :)

Repartition is needed only if you mess with the sizing of the partition. Since we are all on UCKD5....there is no need. If KJ1 or something came out tomorrow and it changed the partitioning, at that time you would have to repartition to get back to UCKD5 :).

.pit files can be very dangerous if used incorrectly.
