I mentioned that a few posts back... Hold both volume buttons plus power until you see the Samsung logo then release just power. Continue holding volume buttons until recovery loads.

Next steps are as in my previous post, or, with a bit of research on your part attempting to copy rom files via adb, then flashing via red recovery.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] skopedia:
finally after many tries, I was able to get cwm recovery 5.5.0.4 by flashing an ICS kernel (jt1134's kernel) from here . not sure why it worked !

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=25526654&postcount=3

So could you please advice as to how I can enable usb debugging without normal phone boot so I can copy files on the sd? I downloaded sdk but it will not detect the phone when i'm in recovery mode using the "adb devices" command

if I can copy files to the sd card via command line with adb, what kind of rom can I put and run from there? will I be able to run jb 4.2.2?

Thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
You need the Samsung usb driver if you don't have it already (smaller of the two files):

http://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/SGH-I997ZKAATT

(If you installed kies previously, I would recommend uninstalling that and installing only the usb driver)

Once you get adb working, you can follow the instructions here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1667929

to push all the rom packages you need - This will include CM9 plus any of the JB roms you want (follow Andros11's guide once the roms are copied successfully). for first JB rom I recommend going with CM10.1 to ensure the file system conversions are completed correctly - read instructions carefully. In some cases a double flash from CWM may be needed.

Side note - Given the issues you have been having with Heimdall and Odin, it is possible that your USB connection is unreliable. Have you tried different, new, better cables or different USB ports for adb access?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] skopedia:
I never had trouble flashing with odin or heimdall so I know my cable and usb are fine, even though I have tried new PC and usb port and cable before with the same results so I know the issue is with the phone.i haveno keis installed, just USB drivers.

the link you provided call for swm to show unmout system and sdcard, but clicking on them gives me error mounting\system and mounting\sdcard so i'm stuck yet again
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
OK - so when you go the the mounts menu, both /system and /sdcard show as unmounted, and when you click on them you get an error? Were you able to get adb working with this recovery? If so, please run "adb shell" then at the prompt run "mount" then mark/paste the output here. That will help confirm whether you have a viable file system on your phone. (If not, that would partially explain why the stock revert packages are not working).

I'm afraid my problem was more that just a stuck power button. I have taken the cover off and cleaned what I could but I does not make a deference.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
From what you have posted, and from the error messages shown in your picture of recovery after attempting to format the sdcard there are two possibilities:

1 - your internal SD card (which contains /data and /sdcard) is dead

2 - your internal SD card is corrupted

Scenario 1 - try for warranty repair if still covered, or see if a repair shop can help (MobileTechVideos.com gets frequent mentions on XDA as a reasonable option for many infuse4g repairs).

Scenario 2 - if the SD card is corrupted there may be a way back, but it requires advanced steps - using programs such as parted and fdisk to repartition the problem device and reformat the two file systems (/data and /sdcard on the infuse). I'm not aware of a guide specifically for the infuse, but there are some available for the i9000 which might be adaptable. You'll likely need to be running a kernel/recovery combo that includes root/su access to be able to use these tools, plus do some research to determine the correct command syntax. If you are not familiar with linux system-level command line utilities, or the equivalent on windows, it's probably best to skip this option.

Lastly, read through this thread from last year. Similar issues to yours - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1581977

One person was able to finally recover by flashing GTG's Odin unbrick package - might be worth a try, perhaps from a different PC if one is available):

thread (instructions) - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116251

mirror (files) - http://d-h.st/7DB

Note that if you are running a newer version of the samsung infuse usb drivers, you may need a newer version of Odin (gtg package references v1.7). I use version 3.07 now, but others report success with 1.85 - here's a link to all Odin versions for download - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2189539

Good luck.

I continue to struggle with this issue, i'm able to push files with adb to the sd card but I can't run the packages I push.also my erecovry screen now shows something else than before, I don't know if that's any better..(see pic)

the mount info is about the same but you can take a look at the file system and the logcat and tell me if there is anything there to work with.

the 3e recovery you have is stock gb recovery...it's secure. you cannot flash or push anything into this recovery.

you need to use odin or heimdall to flash an insecure recovery.

make this work using heimdall:

[Samsung Infuse 4G] skopedia:
I tried Odin and option C from the link above , it flashes properly and boots to the attached recovery screen then to a rebooting Samsung logo .
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
If Option C (Odin of UCLB3 with Entropy's 4.4.12 kernel) flashed successfully, you would not be seeing the stock 3e (blue) recovery, you would be seeing red CWM recovery.

Try following the instructions in post #8 here - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2372000

This is to just install kernel/recovery. Once you verify you have red recovery, you have more options via adb to mount and check your file system status. If the file systems are healthy (i.e. you can mount and navigate to /system, /data, and /dbdata), you can try pushing a CWM rom package via adb to your internal SD card and then try flashing that to get a working rom setup.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
you didnt flash it properly

put it in download mode and flash it properly
[Samsung Infuse 4G] mymy1234:
Wouldn't you also need to flash the Bootstart according to the Version you want?

I had this problem when i flashed GB 2.3.6, I kept looping at the logo because I didnt Flash Bootstart with the Heimdall One-Click tool.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] skopedia:
Everyone of the recovery packages gives me stock recovery except "Entropy512's CM9 Kernel / Blue CWM Recovery" (photo attached, not sure what that color mess is on top) but when I try to mount /system or mount/sdcard ig get "E:can't mount /cache/recovery or error mounting /system.

also on this CWM, ADB is not able to detect the phone, but it finds it on stock recovery..

I tried the same ones on 2 laptops with the same result. where do we go from here..
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
It looks like you have a combination of froyo bootloaders and an incomplete cm9 load. I recommend you try either a complete revert using gtg's ultimate unbrick (to froyo), including repartitioning with the pit file, or going to uclb3, with repartition, and loading GB bootloaders in either case. Flashing bootloaders is risky, but may be needed to be absolutely sure of your configuration. Once you successfully get to GB bootloaders you should not need to flash them again unless you want to get back to froyo.

Going back to square 1 ....

gtg (froyo) instructions - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1116251 (make sure to follow repartition and pit file instructions along with the rest of the files specified).

gtg (froyo) package - http://d-h.st/7DB

-or-

UCLB3 packages (with pit) - make sure to include following instructions to load pit and repartition (Odin). Follow instructions to load GB bootloaders (2nd flash of package with option checked for heimdall [step 7], separate flash package in FAQ #2 "THIS" for Odin)

UCLB3 Heimdall - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1524081

UCLB3 Odin - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=27286083

This thread now has all the options available to get you back to a working stock configuration.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] skopedia:
Ok, I followed the instrutions for flashing UCLB3 and GB boatloader (THIS) only to a rebooting "rethink possible" animation.

Flashing back to froyo reboots to a black screen.(againg tried it on 2 computers with clean drivers, odin passes always)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
Can you try the UCLB3 option again and provide the Odin log once the flash is completed? A screen shot of Odin just prior to starting flash would also be helpful.

Have you tried the Heimdall option? For some people this works better than Odin.

Next step after this would be to flash a custom kernel with red recovery as shown above and then use adb shell and command line utilities to check the health of your various file systems /system, /data, and /dbdata. I can provide mount commands if needed (I'm pretty sure you can mount the first two using CWM mounts menu... not sure about /dbdata. You could also pull /proc/last_kmsg when you boot into recovery after seeing the boot screen/loops.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] skopedia:
I flashed again with odin and heimdall to exactly the same results on the 2 laptops. see attached odin pic and log.

Then, I came across the rogers version of the stock rom and decided to give it a shot. the phone tries almost to boot normally(I can see a few of the blue lines) then comes the error screen (kernel Panic, also attached) do you think it's possible that I had the rogers rom on there? if that is the case where and what can I do from here.. thanks
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Zen Arcade:
1 - Try Heimdall option (with pit/repartitioning)

2 - regarding Odin, assuming the pit file was in pit, phone was in phone and pda was in pda, you should have seen a good flash... assuming no hardware issues.

Once you have red CWM, if you can provide the /proc/last_kmsg file as well as the contents of the /data/system/dropbox folder that would be helpful.

If neither of these options (Odin or Heimdall) work, it's looking like a hardware problem.
[General Questions and Answers] veda_sticks:
Sorry if this is in the wrong section but dont know where to post this, as my phone is as of yet not really been devloped by anyone except that it has been rooted. theres no roms for it yet.

Its an alcatel one touch 983, which is an entry level android phone but with fairly decent specs. As it has a 1ghz broadcom processor and 512mb ram.

anyway , I have a brilliant app which i have paid for called Audiotool. which is a fully featured Real Time Anyliser for audio use. all anyliser functions work as expected.

The problem happens when using the headphone jack to output to speakers. The software has a generator utility used to generate pure tones, white noise, pink noise and even has a polarity checker. Which is really handy for working with Venue sound systems.

Obviously once you plug in a headphone jack it switches to headset mode and cuts of the phone mic. Audio output is still fine and you get the full range. But when you use the program to swtich to front mic to get the mic working again, all bass is lost. Which makes some of the functionality of the app useless, like polarity checking of bass speakers or low frequencie response.

Ive already contacted the developer and he confirms that his app does not apply any filters to audio out and that sound from the app should be exactly the same between using headset mic and phone mic, so it must be the phone that is applying a roll of filter. But unfortunatly as he doesnt have my model of phone to test on cant fix.

Anyway this seems to make sense as rolling of frequencies that the phone speaker cant really produce would be there to protect it, but it shouldnt be doing that while headphones are still plugged in. The headset icon is still on even when using the phone mic but bass frequencies coming from the headphone jack on the phone are definatly being rolled of. If i go mack to main mic bass frequences return but mic doesnt work.

Im wondering if this is a bug in the OS on how it functions to switch between headset mic and phone mic or if theres some kind of solution to stop it from doing that.

Im running a stock rom 2.3 android.

Not sure if there is a free version incase anyone wants to test it on there phone.

[General Questions and Answers] Ri3v|:
If you are unable to write to your MicroSD card, there are two possible causes. If you're using a MicroSD to SD card adapter, it has a built-in lock feature that prevents accidental erasure. As a side effect, this protective feature also prevents you from writing to the card. If you can read from the device, but not write to it, this lock is the most likely culprit. However, data on the card can also be corrupted and prevent reading from or writing to the device. If that's the case, you will need to format the card and start over.

Adapter Lock

Step 1 Remove the card adapter, along with the MicroSD card, from your card reader.

Step 2 Slide the locking switch to the unlocked position. If your card adapter is not labeled, the unlocked position is closest to the front of the card where the metallic contacts reside. Insert the card adapter into the reader and try again; if you still cannot write to the card, continue reading.

Step 3 Remove the card adapter again and toggle between the locked and unlocked position three times. Stay on the locked position for 30 seconds and then switch it to the unlocked position. Try the card again.

Formatting the Card

Step 1 Click "Start," right-click "Computer" and select "Manage."

Step 2 Click "Disk Management" from the Storage list on the left pane.

Step 3 Right-click your MicroSD card and select "Format." The card may not be labeled, but you can identify it from the same drive letter used in Windows Explorer.

Step 4 Click "OK" to keep default values. Click "Yes" in the confirmation dialog to format your card.

Tips If the card adapter's lock keeps locking, the act of inserting the card into the card reader could be switching the lock back. A small piece of tape over the locking switch will prevent this from happening.

I chose the "later" option, went to settings>about device>software update, and it said the same thing. I installed it, thinking it might be JB 4.2.2, but once it had installed there was nothing different about my phone and it is still running 4.1.2.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Samsung release many updates based on Android 4.1.2

Most updates do not change the Android Version. They change the Samsung Build number. You have been updated to XXEMF1, which is an update from June. Most updates don't introduce new features. They introduce bug fixes. Samsung tend to introduce new features when they introduce new Android versions, to keep them in line.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qtwrk:
It's normal, basically it's just small bug fix and patch, only between android version update, like 4.0 to 4.1, or 4.1 to 4.2 you may see the significantly difference. Besides Samsung never gives changelog so only thing you can do is figure out yourself or reading other's comments, but something it's gonna be like, " oh, the dialer open up is 0.1 second faster than previous version " or somewhere translation has been updated... blah blah blah

how to unlock ? :confused:

Apologies for hijacking your post OP.

I just bought a samsung s3 from someone and its the NON LTE version (GT-I9300) and its android version 4.1.2

Baseband Ver is I9300BVEMF1 and build number is JZO54K.I9300XXEMF1

The phone shows Orange logo so pretty sure its locked on orange (also the seller is on Orange network). I am on O2 UK so need it to be unlocked. I have tried this method in the past and has worked with an S3 LTE Version (http://www.valuewalk.com/2012/12/how-to-unlock-galaxy-s3-and-galaxy-note-2-for-free/) however this time, there is no UMTS Menu (Step 1)

While searching about it, i read on XDA that it needs to be rooted to be able to see that UMTS menu ? (even though i dont remember doing that with the S3 with LTE )

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Just rooted and tried again. Still the UMTS menu is not there. straight goes to Debug Menu

EDIT 2: Used GalaxSim Service and paid £2.59 to unlock. Wish I had found out about it earlier. Would have saved me a lot of time!

Just out of curiousity, how did you get the device to accept code input? I have been struggling with a like device locked to the Mexican Telcel network. When I boot the device with an off network SIM it should pop up with a screen that says "Input Unlock Code" or something to that effect, but it simply says "Network Lock" and the only button on the screen says "Dismiss". It is not allowing me to put in the unlock code that I have purchased. Also, my UMTS option is missing from the first screen of the service menu as well.

I got the Note 10.1 a few months back and after seeing the new Microsoft Surface Pro that have a stylus w/ it I feel like I made the wrong purchase? and that the Microsoft tablet came out a little while after I made my note 10.1 purchase. Do you think the new surface pro have outdated the Samsung Note 10.1? What are the pros and cons for each? I got the samsung to take notes in school (like for chemistry)! It is very good for notetaking and school. And I felt like the keyboard for the surface would have been perfect for me, I have a bad back so I can't carry anything heavy. Another reason is Microsoft has powerpoints, etc. What is your opinion? Will the Note 10.1 be outdated soon?

Also, does the Microsoft Surface Pro have palm recognition?

Will the Note 10.1 become obsolete? Eventually of course. But it's been nearly a year! And it still can compete. Plus, I rarely need to even use Windows. So I may be biased. :D
