here's the deal - i had a bad flash in odin - now my epic touch boot loops in android recovery 3e. I can sroll up and down with the volume keys, but cannot select anything! I CAN get into download mode, however my PC and ODIN no longer recognize anything's plugged in.

Things I've tried:
Reinstalling Kies - Reinstalling the Samsung USB Drivers - unplugging the battery - letting it sit for a while - left it overnight - tried 3 different PCs, all diff. operating systems (WIN7, XP, VISTA). Having the battery out then out in holding every possible combinations of buttons. etc..

Am i screwed, or will the usb jig help me? I feel like if i could just get odin to see me i'll be fine. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

PS - is there a stock 2.3.4 or 2.3.5 i can go back to - say if i ever get this working in odin again?
Thanks again.

I had the same issue, all i did was do a battery pull, go into download mode, and then install this thru Odin. I didn't however have the issue of getting odin working. Maybe a driver issue?
