I must have done something wrong. I'll go try again and make sure I don't do anything wrong. Thanks again for your help! Ashies promised you were helpful and as usual she's right!

OK I started the Odin and this is what it finished with:

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> PDA_XWJVB_Sbl.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> PHONE_XXJVK.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> CSC_NEE_JV3.tar.md5 is valid.

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<OSM> Leave CS..

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

Does that "Succeed 0" mean that it didn't work?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Hmm that is weird, doesn't say failed either.

I would reboot PC, yank battery and boot back into download on the phone, swap usb ports and try again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pick_A_Name:
Well it was working so well until my computer got a blue screen of death. So now I'm off to see if it is soft bricked or if it's 100% bricked. Anyway thanks for your help! If it's not bricked I'll be back.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Does it do anything at all? If you hey any thing out of it, its not bricked.

Even if it is, you can send it to Adam outler or mobile tech videos got unbrickable mod, which is exactly what it sounds like, a hardware mod that will make it possible to flash bootloaders onto a device with corrupted or even missing bootloaders, making it unbrickable.

I just finished reading /watching them. I already called the Shack to see if they had the resistors. It turns on, but throws lots of errors before getting to a broken 3e. I can't use the power button to accept any commands. And it won't get into download mode either. Any advice or other thoughts before I get the jig going? Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Jig should get you to download mode...but you may want to find a more stable pc to flash the gingerbread bootloaders with, because corrupted bootloaders are the only way to hard brick, you want the connection on that flash to be good.

Might wanna give this thread a read through if you haven't already.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pick_A_Name:
That's funny because this IS my most stable computer. I've NEVER had an issue with it in the year since I built it. It chose this most crucial time to fail me. I'm heading to the Shack I guess. Thanks much!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pick_A_Name:
Well Studicris I owe you BIG! Your last suggestion helped. I went through the link and tried every combination to get it into download mode. I swear I tried it before, but the stars aligned and I got it into download mode. I grabbed a different cable and ran upstairs to my daughter's room. I threw her off her laptop and started working. It ran like a champ this time. I got the I9000 bootloader on as well as reflashing Mosaic 8.5. THANKYOU!!! Donation on the way!

Confirmation number: 4YF07817TB264905D.

So any other tips? As I said this is for my wife and stability and ease of use is best.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
That was generous, thank you!

She may have an issue where the phone won't wake up. Where a battery pull, or button combo is needed. I only had it happen 3 times in 2 months, some that many a day.

I have a version coming out soon that is completely stable BUT also none of the bells and whistles (lock screens, drop down mods) those will be offered as an add on package for those who want it to try, but still have something stable to go back to if issues arise.

So, you should be good but if that happens try a different lock screen and try and bare with it. It should be quite infrequent if at all, and the next update will fix it.

And don't worry you can just flash it in recovery, no need for Odin as you already have the correct bootloaders. :D

Lol kinda sounds like I'm talking crap about mosaic, I'm not, just a heads up about a known issue which as i said varies in frequency, so...good luck and watch for something new soon ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pick_A_Name:
You are very welcome! Very nice of you to help me. And I'm here because I trust and believe in The Collective. I appreciate you continuing to work on the Cappy (a nice phone, but it's getting a little long in the tooth). I look forward to your next iteration. I haven't had time to check it all out yet, but I'm very impressed so far. Thanks again and I'll be hanging around now. Guess I need to update my sig :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gregen11:
Just a curious question. In order to tether on mosaic 9, do I need to enable netfilter in semaphore control? I tether a decent amount and have never had to change a setting mosaic to do so. I just want to double check before I start tethering and end up caught.

Thank you for your time.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Might be a good idea...

I never tether, hell I'm never really on data, mostly on wifi.

If you've been ok so far you "should" be ok...but AT&T are getting better at detecting things so its no guarantee.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gregen11:
Thanks for the speedy reply Studa!

I just wanted to make sure it wasn't some experimental option.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rimark:
Just a quick question... Would the themes from mosaic VIII work with mosaic IX?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Only If you really really like the boot animation :)

No, they won't work Chiki will be working on porting some.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rimark:
Haha, I doooo like that red boot animation............

Yeah, I looked at her thread just a bit ago and saw that shes working on ports so I can wait :)

Thanks Studacris!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeDV:
Yes, in all likelihood you will need to enable netfilter. I don't believe 2.4 comes with it on by default. That said, ATT is really starting to crackdown... I've heard from 3 different people in the past few weeks who received their cut the crap notifications from ATT. So, enjoy it while you can.

Curious what you tether. I have a feeling if it's other mobile devices, you're less likely to get "caught". However, tether a pc and have those non mobile requests go out and they seem to catch those more often.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shakir999:
Hey, a noob question here :P

I flashed a theme (MosaicOrangeVIII) on 9, and i dont really like it.. is there anyway i can go back to the original 9 theme? :)

Also, is there any way to change the lockscreens on 9? I cant seem to find the lockscreen customization menu! Thanks!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoeDV:
First, it's a really bad idea to flash a theme from a prior version. I don't believe there's a revert available as of yet and if you're new, I'm not about to recommend creating one on your own. So, you're option as it stands now is probably to reflash.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shakir999:
Ouch, i knew it was a bad idea :( well, thanks fr the quick reply, i guess i shud reflash 9 now.

Oh btw, is there anything i can do about changing the lockscreens?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] goodolsen:
There is only one lockscreen on 9 so you can't change it.

Hi guys, so im here for my wifes captivate. I picked it up used and i been mostly over at the infused section so im a little lost over here. currently the phone is on 2.3.7 cynmod 7, 2.6.35.14 kernal and t959tljl3 baseband. what you think would be the best route in getting this rom (mosaic) flashes. flash stock then go after it or just go from what its at.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
You need to flash stock first coming from aosp...in post there is a link to a stock gingerbread package.

Ringtones

I was wondering if there was a way to pull a ringtone from the m8 zip to use in m9? There was a ringtone I liked but I dont remember what it was called. I been all threw the file but I cant see where it would be but then again i dont know what im looking for :D
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NunHugger:
System/media/ringtones...

Just use an app like 7zip to pull them out and place in that folder using root explorer or equivalent file managing apk.

Sent from a phone.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Actually... No need for the root file explorer, you can put them in a similar file structure, but in /sdcard instead of /system.

So it would be /sdcard/media/audio then notifications and ringtones folders.

That way you can do it all in one go, just mount your sdcard and pull the sounds straight from the zip to the corresponding folder and your done :)

FusionXII from Cyanogenmod 7.1

I've tried flashing it a couple of times...nothing horrible has happened it once I got a boot loop and another time it just stayed at the CGM screen forever...will MosaicXI work? I enjoyed the VII distro when I upgraded from 2.1?!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
There's a specific procedure to follow coming from aosp. I believe it's on their OP. You do have to flash back to stock before flashing in between different based ROM like this has they have different bootloaders.

Please follow every instructions when flashing a ROM, they usually are in the OP (if not, the 2nd post). A hour of reading will save you hours of head banging on the wall and a nice brick in your hand. ;)

Problem(s) Upgrading to Mosaic

Hopefully someone can help...(and I have searched and read a number of threads but cannot find someone with the same problem).

I was on Andromeda3 and I decided to upgrade to Mosaic IX. I flashed back to stock using Odin after soft bricking my phone (I could not get my device to register on my Windows 7 machine but did get it working on my Vista laptop). I then tried Heimdall for flashing CWM and updating the bootloaders (following instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1350266). It appeared to work (my phone does say that I have Clockwork Mod Recovery 3.0.0.5 - orange text).

The problem seemed to be when I tried to reboot after flashing Mosaic IX to my phone (no error messages) but when I reboot after the initial flash, it gets stuck on the screen saying, "Galaxy S SGH-I897 Samsung."

I can get it into download mode and/or back into recovery but nowhere beyond (I was going to try and flash back to Andromeda3 but I am not given that chose).

Also, Odin no longer recognizes the phone when in recovery mode.

If anyone has some suggestions, that would be greatly appreciated...Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
I'm not 100% sure what this issue is but I got a couple ideas. I checked Trusselo's guide and I think his bootloaders are for I-897 and not I-9000 (which Mosaic is based off). So if that's the issue, you have 2 solutions: 1- Flash a I-897 based rom (perhaps look at johnsondr's rom or Effin Eh by Trusselo). 2- Flash the I-9000 bootloaders.

If you want to use Mosaic, 2nd solution is what you need. You should find a package with only the bootloaders here on XDA. I believe most I-897 roms work on the I-9000 bootloaders but not so much the other way around.

If that's not the problem.. A wipe + a clean stock gb flash might be your solution but it sounds like a bootloaders issue.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demonblod:
I'm getting constant error/FC messages.

When I first flashed the Mosaic ROM, I had a collection of 20 or so error messages. "Sorry! The process com.andriod.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." I got 20 of these, but the process name would be different. I got one for phone, calender, media, google maps, everything and anything.

I force closed all of them (because that was my only option) and they keep coming back! Every 1-2 seconds another one pops up! I can't do anything. They interrupt whatever process I'm trying to do.

This is completely unacceptable. I'm going to flash back to stock tonight or flash to another ROM because my phone is completely hijacked. I can't use it.

Thanks in advance for your help. I tried to search a little bit for "Force close" or "mosaic force close", but I didn't get much. I suppose Force close is probably shorted to FC which is unhelpful.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Boot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache.

Then restore user apps with tibu
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demonblod:
that was probably a reading problem, wasn't it?

I swear, I read most of the first post. "your mom ever told you to..." "6 out of 6 satisfied users" or something.

I don't think I've had to do that for other ROMs.

Anyway, how's the battery life on this thing? I think mine just jumped down 16% in 30 mins, but that might have been because of the error messages
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Battery life is quite nice. It gets even better if you set your governor to battery saver (in the semaphore app).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pick_A_Name:
My wife's Cappy gets great battery life on this rom. She isn't a big user, but got over 2 days.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hclaveria:
WOW! More than I expected

I just jumped from CM7 which I had been using for many months. My biggest issue with it was that it felt like they were forcing another phone into the Captivate, not really enhancing it. Not to mention that you couldn't use Samsung or Captivate specific Apps and the many FC's. Same issue with MUIU.

I loved Firefly and Serendiptiy but I must say that this is by far the best Rom experience on my Captivate. Its slick, efficient and feels completely re-energized.

Congratulations on a spectacular job.

Now that I got all the compliments out of the way, i can ***** about something very minor...i cant remove the SMS Logs from the phone log.

I see that it should have been removed in an early release but i am having this issue. I found mod fixes but none of them work. I deleted the log apk but that caused FC's. (It was suggested somewhere).

I apologize if there is a simple fix that I am overlooking but I don't seem to get it.

Thanks again for a great product!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
You can't delete the logprovider.apk, you need a modified one that doesn't list texts.

I didn't do that in this release, i use handcent which doesn't show in the stock log so it just slipped my mind.

I'll look on how to do that.

I've been searching for this for a while but to no avail, but, using Mosaic 9, is it possible to change the background to the pull down status bar at the top? It has that cool blue flamey thing, but it doesn't go with my current theme.

Also, if it's ok, is anyone else having a problem with the email force closing every so often? (it seems like it does it when it tries to sync). And for the dock at the bottom, do you just flash the .zip from CWM?

Other than that, I love this rom. Coming straight from Cognition, no problems or anything. Just put it on my brother's phone too.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Which Part of the status bar? I'm not sure what you mean.

i don't have any issues here with the email app.

As for the docks..you need to extract them and then go to your launcher settings and set a custom dock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MX957:
The notification bar maybe? It's labeled in preferences as the status bar. But the one at the top of the screen. When you pull it down to see the wifi, bluetooth, silent mode etc etc buttons, it has that flamey blue background. For my brother and me, at least. I may be missing something with the GO themes or something, but I've tried out several and it never changes.

I tried looking for that too, but it just just pops up every 15 minutes or so saying that Email has stopped responding. Not too big of a deal because the Gmail app works fine, but just curious if anyone else had the problem.

EDIT: The exact error text is: "The application Email (process com.android.email) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

I know what you are going to tell me, (it's bricked dumba#$). But my phone was acting strange, so I decided that I would go back to stock, like I did one time using CM7 GB, and got my phone to go back to stock and flash Mosaic on it.

Well right when it went to Reset mode in in Odin, that is the last I seen any life out of my phone. It is completely black, nothing shows up at all, no button functions etc. Is it a total lost like I have read?

Damn, that sucks. I've only heard of this working twice, I hope you have a jig.

Take out the battery then put the battery in and DON'T TOUCH ANY BUTTONS, insert jig and hold the volume buttons... That did it for those guys...

If that doesn't work after trying it a few times then you are s.o.l. I'm sorry, luckily you can lie and say you were using kies and it never booted back up, and they should give you a warranty replacement with little effort.
