[Samsung Infuse 4G] nash2000:
I've been trying to get this phone going for hours and hour, and it's still junk. This is what my phone does...

1. phone was one miui version .07

2. tried installing extended settings but the versions didn't match.

3. extended settings worked but other apps would not open or work.

4. reflashed miui version .07 and phone seemed fine.

5. downloaded newest version of miui, but phone would not allow me to boot into recovery.

6. used odin back to stock and started from scratch

7. after using odin my phone is having issues downloading apps

8. root explorer won't allow me to overwrite recovery.

9. many reboots and factory resets/clearing data etc, phone was finally allowing me to overwrite recovery.

10. flashed cwm and installed infused v1.6.

11. phone is again not allowing me to install any apps or roms.

12. I again did an odin back to stock and also did a factory reset

13. next i installed root manager and rom manager once the phone rebooted from factory reset.

14. both apps worked fine, so i than downloaded modded recovery and installed it and flashed cwm.

15. next i went to find rom manager in my app drawer to download rom but it was not there, in fact non of my root apps were there. i looked in superuser app, i see root and rom managers, but apps are not shown on my phone.

16. i than went to the market and searched rom manager, I than selected to install it even tho i never uninstalled it. My phone would than download app but would hang on the install phase.

17. odin back to stock and factory reset again.

18. opening market for the first time after reset, phone tells me i have updates available. phone is installing them automatically. all of them installed fine.

19. Market has changed to the new version.

20. downloaded and installed xda

21. powered phone down and removed sdcard, i do this before i root.

22. clicked usb debugging and ran super one click.

23. received message from super one click asking is my phone was 2.1 or higher (never seem that before, and i've ran this program a million times.

23. powered phone down and reinstalled sdcard.

24. opened market and downloaded free version of rom manager, and it again got hung up on the install phaze. Im going to try one more reboot.

25. after reboot i went back into the market and tried to install a random free app. The free app downloaded and installed fine.

26. next im going to try and install rom manager again. Rom manager installed fine.

27. next i'll try and install root explorer. app installed fine.

28. now im going to try a tip that i got, skip installing infused v1.6 with modded recovery and install infused v2.2.3 with community kernal. Kernal downloaded fine. next I'll install kernal flasher from market. Flasher installed fine.

29. I than installed community kernal.

30. now i'll try and delete recovery from root explorer. root explorer will not allow me to over write and delete recovery.

31. As it sits, I can not flash infused 2.2.3 because i can't delete recovery, I have been able to flash infused 1.6 and was able to over write and replace recovery with modded recovery but sooner or later i will not be able to install or download anything from web or market.

Sorry for this massively long post for help, I just wanted everything out in case there's someone out that that can help me. Also, i've cleared date, cache, files, cookies etc during this ordeal with little to no affect. The only think that i haven't done was format my sdcard, not sure it that'll help but i'm up for anything at this point.
