Sounds like you got a corrupted PB31IMG.zip. Be very careful with what you do in hboot and always compare md5 sums.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whitedragon551:
So the procedure wasnt the issue. I did that right?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
When you say, "Installed from sdcard", what do you mean? You weren't in recovery, right, but rather HBOOT? There should be a question like "Do you want to install update? Vol+ Yes / Vol- No" and after installing it should ask if you want to reboot. You can't flash a splash screen from recovery.

P.S. This is the wrong forum for this question.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whitedragon551:
In hboot there is an option to install a .zip from SD card. Thats what I used.

So the location of the .zip was wrong? It never asked me if I wanted to install update unless your referring to the update option in hboot.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
HBOOT does NOT have that option. That is recovery. HBOOT has a white background to the screen, not black. To get into HBOOT, power the phone completely off (Yank the battery if you have to). Hold down Vol-down while pressing power. When you get to the white screen, wait for the red bar on the right side of the screen to load up and it will ask if you want to install update. Follow the instructions on screen and reboot when prompted.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whitedragon551:
Ok now that we are clear on that. Where does the zip need to be placed? Root folder on the phone?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
Yes, root of sdcard. You'll know it's right if you get prompted to install the update.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whitedragon551:
Ill give it a shot right now. If it doesnt work Ive got a backup.

EDIT- That was easy. Started up no problem. Thank you.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
I bet it will work like a charm. :) Let me know.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jermaine151:
You're worrying me. LOL. Did it work? I hope you didn't brick your phone. :(
[Droid Incredible Android Development] whitedragon551:
Nah. I edited my previous post about 10 seconds after I flashed that it was fine.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mossys:
I've got:

16gig Micro sd card (Class 2)

8gig Micro sd-card (Class 4)

If I format these both to a Fat32 with an Allocation unit size of 8192bytes. Will there be any performance increase? The 16 gig feels sluggish.. The icons load up around 10-30 seconds in boot up. (moved my apps to media.)

I'm currently formatting the 16 gig at the moment. backing up all my data.

Question is, Whats the best allocation unit size for SD cards in the 8-16 gig range? And is there a big performance step from class 2 to 4?

Cheers!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d3athsd00r:
I'm no expert in these kinds of things, but I don't know if the allocation size will make a huge difference in the speed. The 8GB card will be faster by default because it is a class 4 and the other is a class 2.

Someone who knows more may be able to answer better than I can.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjbayer3:
Big difference between class 2 and class 4 personally I think you should only by classic 6
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pukemon:
No, the sizes will affect how data is allocated. You can research it and see if there is a better one. Ususally just use default. Having too big sizes can mess with the efficiency of card handling it's overall size. I don't know how to explain, and hell couldn't even try as i'm sleepy and about to jump in bed. There can be speed differences, but nothing major that will make you want to choose a speicfic size or the other.

I voided my warranty and your mum.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
As far as I know, smaller file allocations help if you have plenty of small sized files, and bigger file allocation sizes help when you have big files.

I always use default with pretty good results at least on Class 6 and up cards.

Cheers!
[TouchPad General] TazMan1688:
Good Evening,

I got my Touchpad last week and I've been trying to figure some things out.

When I try to log into a forum which requires authentication, such as XDA or WeOSbuzz I get stuck in a loop which does one of the following.

It will either keep reloading the page that says "Thanks for logging in"(Particularly on xda), or if I don't get stuck in a loop...the login information doesn't stick. No matter how many times I actually put in my username & password I can NEVER login via the Touchpad.

Secondly,

I'm trying to use my touchpad for GMAIL access. However, any outgoing message gets stuck in the outbox. I then get an error that I need to check my username and password. I've checked these multiple times, including deleting the account altogether. I've also changed the port to 465 with SSL, and 25 without ssl. Neither function correctly gmail's smtp server.

Hope it all makes sense...It's been a long day.

Thanks!!
[TouchPad General] camalus:
I see the same thing with the xda site.

This is UCKH3 packaged in Heimdall One-Click Format. Run it at your own risk. I am placing it here because I need a place to store the link on mediafire

http://files.teamkomin.com/Captivate/SGH-i897-UCKH3-One-Click.jar

As of today, this is the latest, greatest semi-official, leaked firmware for the Captivate--3SEP11

If anyone wants to try it out, go ahead, please leave feedback.

No time to do a full release thread about this right now... Working on the UnBrickable Mod platform and this file is required to finish the job.
[Captivate Android Development] whyareyou:
Could you do a UCKH3 instead?
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
DIdn't realize there was a newer one. Yes. I'll get right on that.
[Captivate Android Development] b0uncyfr0:
Hi thanks for this, im just about to try it now. Hows KH3 going?
[Captivate Android Development] Moxie3000:
Summary: It kinda worked. I get garbled video with the camera and on bootup after the Samsung Galaxy animation.

Process:

I started on a semi-recent CM7.1 Nightly (90-ish).

I flashed to stock using AIO Captivate Toolkit. That got me to JF6. Note all download modes are initiated using USB jig.

As soon as I verified a good boot into stock, I fired up Heimdall One-Click, put the phone into Download mode and clicked the magic button...

It flashes, reboots, but then gets stuck at the white AT&T boot screen. No progress for many, many minutes. I get desperate and tried to shut it off. In the process, the phone reboots and begins what appears to be a normal boot process. This boot completes, but I'm left with the aforementioned artifacts - the camera doesn't work and I get garbled graphics on boot. Also, the phone feels laggy as heck.

I'm guessing I may have prematurely interrupted the initial boot process. To be honest, I wasn't tracking time, so I don't know if it was only 5 minutes or 15. I just know it didn't seem right and much, much slower than flashing to stock JF6 was.

I'm going to try a more conventional Odin flash to see if I get better results.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
This did not include the params.lfs. I did not realize it at the time I released it. I will include a better version soon. I just needed something quick to support this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1242466
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
Sorry, I can't release UCKH3, it's missing files. I'll see about other versions...
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
You can pull the missing files from KF1. That's what I did when I flashed KH3 when I managed to messup my phone playing around with Heimdall 1.3.0...

Guessing the missing files weren't updated so they weren't included with the exception of the primary bootloader.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
Updated to UCHK3 with missing files from UCKF1. This is the latest, greatest Samsung firmware as of today.
[Captivate Android Development] vdubguy:
Whats wrong

This might be a noob question but what am I doing wrong? I make it executable but it does nothing. I am running Ubuntu 10.10
[Captivate Android Development] boog:
Odin is for windows. Heimdall is the linux equivalent. So the file in the op probably won't help you on ubuntu.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
Right click and open with java... or run from command line java -jar mydownloadedfile.jar
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
Is anyone else having problems with running the KH3 version on Windows? When I try and run it I get -- "Invalid or Corrupt jarfile" and it closes.

I tried downloading 3 times to rule out corrupt download, and the previous KF1 version ran fine so I don't think it's my Java implementation.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
Verified... There must have been a problem with the secure file transfer (i was not watching it). It is an invalid java file when downloaded from the server.

[Captivate Android Development] jgaviota:
Does this include bootloaders?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] bulletproof1013:
There is a option to flash bootloaders. If you want them you will have to flash twice.as far as i know
[Captivate Android Development] vdubguy:
OK. Comes up now. My first Heimdall flash coming soon!
[Captivate Android Development] bazarimajom:
I'm on stock froyo, kb1, flashed to it using this: heimdall at&t stock firmware package. Can i flash UCKH3 that Adam linked in the OP over this? Is it enough to click on bottom left button (details), then write true in the Flash column to the IBL+PBL, SBL, PARAM rows to flash bootloaders too? Thanks for the answers!
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
yes. You should not have any problems.
[Captivate Android Development] bazarimajom:
Thanks, also for the hard work you put in the projects to make flashing safer, the unbrickable mod is a miracle :) I hope the heimdall packages will spread soon and odin will vanish in oblivion.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
This will be a reality soon. Heimdall is now up to par and more effective then Odin at flashing. As soon as Benjamin Dobell releases Heimdall 1.3.1, Heimdall One-Click will go into Release Candidate phase. All bugs should have been stomped throughout beta testing and the only thing that remains is to shave off 10 megs of the One-Click packaging and Heimdall's ability to repartition. Both of these will be corrected shortly. Keep an eye on Benjamin Dobell's Heimdall thread.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
In the mean time... for a total resurrection of a device including repartitioning, you can use this script in any Linux terminal to build Heimdall.

type this separate

sudo apt-get install build-essential curl git libusb-1.0

then copy-pasta this block

rm -Rf ./heimdall
mkdir heimdall
cd heimdall
git clone https://github.com/Benjamin-Dobell/Heimdall.git
cd Heimdall
cd heimdall
curl http://android.merseine.us/BridgeManager.cpp> ./BridgeManger.cpp
curl http://android.merseine.us/EndPitFilePacket.h >./EndPitFilePacket.h
cd ..
cd libpit
./configure
make
cd ..
cd heimdall
./configure
make
sudo make install

As of yesterday, this corrects the repartitioning problem under Linux and will allow Heimdall to repartition. This script must be run once.

If you are attempting to resurrect a totally screwed up device under Linux without a Odin Virtual Machine, you will need to run this and select NO when asked to install Heimdall by Heimdall One-Click.
[Captivate Android Development] mabovalu:
Thank you very much. This allowed me to recover from a very challenging situation.

I did not flash the bootloaders, that option is and remains 'greyed-out'.

Now I seem stuck on Stock 2.3.4.

ODIN cannot 'see' my Captivate, adb devices shows no connection.

Any advice on a next step? Can I root this? If so, how?

FWIW, I can reboot into Recovery, but not sure what to do there?

edited to add:

I got my Captivate rooted using the procedure detailed in this thread

10 steps to get rooted Android 2.3.4 I897UCKH3

I learned that the Heimdall USB Drivers can conflict with the Samsung USB drivers. Removing the Heimdall drivers finally allowed me to 'see' my Captivate with OFIN and ADB, and root the device.

Thanks again AdamOutler for this program.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
Heimdall uses Open-Source drivers, and is a totally open-source application. You only need to install the closed-source, proprietary Samsung drivers again to use the closed-source odin program. As a user or developer on the Open-Source Android platform, open-source should be utilised whenever possible.

This is the driving force behind Heimdall one-click. Open-Source is better then closed source because it can be understood and utilised by the community rather then simply blindly used and potentially harmful.

I don't support the use of Odin because it is closed source and so are its drivers. You can swap back and forth by simply installing the drivers for either program though.
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Quick questions about this release -

Does flashing this release do re-partition?

Somewhere on this thread it was mentioned that we have an option to install/not-to-install bootloader, is that correct? I just want to make sure that it includes KH3 (AT&T GB) bootloaders.

I am on Win 7 x64 and have java installed. So I just need Open source drivers (Libusb) to make it work?

Thanks for your replies. :)
[Captivate Android Development] tkienzle:
Amazing work Adam I've been using heimdall sense I found out about it never once used Odin...

1 quick question will this fix my wife's phone has a problem where sometimes It can't find the data partition and it's really eating up a lot of space and her internal memory card it makes me think I had a bad flash a 1 time but the re partitioning didn't work this will basically reset the phone back to stock everything right... if I use the stock gingerbread rom do you think this will resolve the issue by re partitioning the sd?

I think what happened 1 time I flashed over a rom where I had voodoo lagfix and I didn't bring it back so that data section got lost somehow does that make any sense to you...

Any and all help is greatly appreciated and keep up the good work...

Makes me wanna donate to you do you have a donate button?

right now it only totally works under Linux. If you want to donate, heimdall one-click has a donate button which will let you donate to the ROM provider, Benjamin Dobell, or myself.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
It will fully repartition on Linux with the fix above.

Of course the package contains the proper bootloaders!

Yes, but the repartitioning problem has not been addressed in windows for this release.

Can we pin this thread to the main development forum?
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
I'd prefer that this thread remain unpinned. It is beta. It will not partition on Mac or Windows, however it works great for recovery on Linux. Also, it's one of many ROMs available for your device. Personally, I think the Heimdall thread should be pinned.
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Thanks Adam. Since I want full repartition, can I use Linux installed on Virtual Machine?
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
Yes, but make sure you do the fix above. repartitioning is usually never required. that changes the boundries of the partitions, nothing more.
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Which fix? I think I have missed something. I'll go through entire thread once again before I begin.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
Here.

This will allow you to repartition. You should not need it unless you have TOTALLYZ modded the firmware to something other then galaxy S.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Or you want to try out a modded pit file like this one here. Supposed to increase the size of your cache so you can download files larger then 30 Mb from the Market.

Granted you probably won't be able to do that with this one click.
[Captivate Android Development] AdamOutler:
The one-click is modifiable. If that's ALL it does you can drill down to the heimdallpackage.tar.gz file and modify that. Assuming that's ALL it does. I wont add this in because this is a stock distribution.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Oh? Nice. Well it modifies the size of the Cache (making it bigger) and reduces the size of the dbdata (making it smaller) since the total size/units has to be the same. At least according to the post that's what it does. I myself haven't tried it. Hexed my own which I also haven't tried because I haven't had a need to reflash.
[Captivate Android Development] DanielGoff527:
So, I've flashed stock KH3 from odin before with no problems, and have also used custom KH3 roms, however ever since I flashed the KH3 heimdall one click (and it seemed to go flawlessly), I've been unable to connect to a data network on any stock KH3 rom. I've flashed back to stock JF6 multiple times, tried this heimdall KH3, odin KH3 with and without bootloaders. I have no trouble getting the phone to flash stock KH3 and boot up, but it will never connect to a data network. I've also flashed Pinnacle 1.2 from CWM recovery and it does connect to data networks. I'm completely stumped, any ideas?

you need the lib-usb package. Maybe it's not installed by default on debian? It is on Ubuntu.

Use Ubuntu. Your partition table is screwey. this version of heimdall cannot repartition on Windows or Mac.
