Infuse HELP!!!!!

[anon(94115)]

ok odin will always fail (well 99% of the time) if you have the battery in. before I give you detailed instructions on what to do, I need to know what you were trying to do.

Were you installing new ROM? Rooting? let me know and I will give you the step by step on how to fix it

ok so lets go with a rooted stock ROM. I take no real credit, the credit is jscott30 over on xda. I am just relaying it to you and making it easier.

first download this: Dev-Host - UCLB3_Unbrick_root_1.1.zip - The Ultimate Free File Hosting / File Sharing Service

now the instructions:

1.) Download and extract the zip package.

2.) Place phone in download mode. Make sure odin is open first, then remove battery, put back in, hold both volume keys in, and plug in usb cord.

3.) If needed, install latest Samsung USB drivers by installing Samsung Kies from HERE. you said you have them. if not install them from Transfer, Sync & Manage Music, Movies, Photos, Contacts and Calendars with Kies

4.) Open the included Odin exe.

5.) If phone is detected, the window under ID:COM will turn yellow.

6.) Click on "PIT" to browse to and select infuse_gb.pit. Make sure that Re-Partition is selected.

7.) Click on "PDA" to browse to and select PDA_UCLB3.tar.md5.

8.) Click on "PHONE" to browse to and select PHONE_UCLB3.tar.md5.

9.) Click on "Start", and allow Odin to flash the phone. Do not unplug or power off the phone until Odin is finished.

10.) When the Odin dialogue reads "PASS!", the phone should reboot into the stock UCLB3 Setup Wizard.

Its stuck on this or just taking for ever but it said just this for like ten mins

 

[anon(94115)]

no you are good...it takes awhile to flash...up to 30-45 minutes...as long as it isnt red on the COM, you are fine

 

[anon(94115)]

from what I see there, it is going nicely...make sure you do not take the cord out

 

[gypstqueen]

The suspense is killing me.!.!.!.

 

[anon(94115)]

yeah I know what you mean. I have done this a 1000 times, including 2 times today because I was bored but each time the wait is the worst.

 

[gypstqueen]

Okay so if we forgot to click re-partiton is it going to eff it up...
Its my sister n I tryna fix it n were not um this stuff illiterate

Literate

 

[anon(94115)]

well it is gonna depend on how f'd up it was from the first attempt that you tried. I am going to take a guess and say that if it was screwed up, when it grabbed the pit file, it wouldn't match with the phone and would have failed right there. I think you are ok.

is it moving at all?

 

[gypstqueen]

Really, well if u get bored tomorrow you should let me know how to root my phone n make it badass lmao thanks for helping for real

 

[gypstqueen]

No its not moving at all God this sucks ahhhhhh

well if that file I gave you flashes properly, you will be rooted.

The file you are flashing is the original file, but with root added. You will be able to take the bloatware off by uninstalling it without issue. Just be sure you know what files are safe to remove

 

[gypstqueen]

Okay thank u again
