[Q]HELP PLEASE Infuse not recognized in download mode

---

HELP. I have been trying to use GTG's ultimate unbrick and retun to stock for 4 days now. I got phone second hand and thought i was getting stock but rooted then found out he actually deleted preinstalled apps!!! I purchased this phone to get the OTA GB upgrade and can't until returned to stock. I installed the samsung drivers got confirmation from my computer , got to putting phone in download mode..which it does but ODIN will not recognize device so nothing shows in COM. I went through the steps anyway...nothing!! debugging on, debugging off, antivirus on, off.. I don't understand. computer..XP said drivers installed. won't work in DL mode. I try to install drivers again PC says already installed. I went to a friends with a brand new pc with win 7. "found new hardware, installing drivers. same thing...NOT RECOGNOIZED ....I ran into this very issue when trying to upgrade my captivate...get into DL then NOTHING. i AM FAIRLY NEW AT THIS BUT NOT STUPID. i read others that have same issue but i find no fixes.

anyone ...please...GTG??

Try different version of Odin,try different USB port,run Odin as admin,use a different USB cord.

Have you tried all of these?

I had this problem today on one of our work computers.

I am using Odin from the unbrick app. Don't really know how to use a different version. Using the OEM USB cord. Funny thing when i go to control panel to uninstall previous drivers...they aren't in the list but when i search I find all kinds. When i try to install new ones it says they are already there and to uninstall first. Anyone know if when i do the search and they come up can I delete from there??

Nope. I give. Just bout ready to throw phone and computer down the street. Just tried those other drivers. Computer recognizes phone in other modes...so does Odin but that doesn't matter if it won't in download mode!! !.

Try Heimdall. Odin stopped working for me also and once I started using heimdall it's great and faster than odin

Heimdall under Linux works great for me - no clue how well it works in Windows.

It seems like Odin is pretty screwy and requires all sorts of settings Heimdall doesn't.
