[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thoughtlesskyle:
After looking for quite a few hours on google and xda the only solution thats shows up is to use a jtag and quite frankly that scares the pants off me

here is what happened

-i upgraded the device to froyo then did the super one click root in order to root

-after that i installed the modified recovery to turn off the signature check

-after doing that i flashed clockwork mod renamed update.zip through recovery

-after that i flashed the ICS beta but i could not get the main zip to work through recovery the only other zip i had on my sd card was the kernel so i flashed that and it worked, in clockworkmod 5.0 it wiped everything on the phone so i reloaded the 2 zips i flashed the rom there and it rebooted. (this is out of order from the thread so i know this is what causes the next problem.

now when ICS boots up i get an encryption unsuccessful screen saying i need a factory reset, only option given is reboot now. can't bypass the screen, can't access via adb (driver install fails on windows too), cant get into download mode, and can't get into recovery.

how screwed am i

device is

Samsung captivate

-build number 1009
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erbsmokah:
You need Gingerbread bootloaders.

And since you cant get into download mode... You probably need a USB Jig.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Volvogga:
Good news is that you see something at startup. I doubt you are totally screwed then.

Second the jig as an option. It has quite the track record on this forum as making the captivate almost un-brickable.

What have you tried as far as getting your phone into download mode? There are sometimes multiple ways (Vol-up + Vol-down while plugging in USB without battery, sim, or microsd installed is how I always seem to get it working). Here is a list:

http://samsungcaptivate.wikia.com/wiki/Putting_the_Phone_into_Download_Mode

To my knowledge, none of that information is dated... but there are those here that know far more about it than I ever will.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thoughtlesskyle:
none of those methods worked, it just stinks if it would have been any other rom i would have been fine i think but since i can't do anything in user space and everything i do takes me to the ICS android screen i cant do anything.

also for the record i am a noob to samsung devices but i have been doing this stuff to HTC devices for years
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
Why does he need GB bootloaders?!?

And just boot into recovery factory reset.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thoughtlesskyle:
I have no recovery or download mode or atleast nothing is letting me into them
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erbsmokah:
He flashed ICS over froyo... are froyo bootloaders compatible?

Im assuming not and thats what caused the brick. Either that or CWM5 doesnt like froyo BL's. Either way.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
They are compatible...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nbell13:
Did you try this method to get into download mode?

1. Turn off phone, remove sim, battery, sd

2. hold both volume buttons, keep holding for remainder of instructions

3. insert usb

4. insert battery

This has instantly granted download mode on every captivate i've ever tried.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrhaley30705:
The team hacksung project might be compatible, but the straight port says in the op that you need to flash kf1 first, which included bootloaders.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] modest_mandroid:
You aren't hard bricked and your device is recoverable.

If you are still on the froyo bootloaders, try unplugging the usb cable, removing the battery, sim and sd cards, hold vol up+vol down (don't hold power), and plug the usb cable back in. It should take you to download mode.

If your phone responds to adb while it's booting, you can just issue a quick 'adb reboot download' or 'adb reboot recovery' to get it to boot into either without the button combos.

If either of those don't work, you can try forcing it with a usb jig (just a 301k resistance over pins 4 and 5 of the microusb port). Build a jig, take the battery out, plug the jig in, make sure not to touch the jig while it's in or you'll change the resistance and won't work, put the battery back in and it should kick your phone into download mode. Once you're there, simply remove the jig and plug the usb cable back in.

Sometimes the download mode graphic won't show up even if you are actually in download mode. If the phone looks like it hung, try connecting it to Odin anyway and see if it recognizes it.

Edit: forgot to mention, try using adb from linux (virtual machine or livecd will work too). You shouldn't have to mess with drivers and it's worth a shot.

All I have to say is wow, not one of those things are true

[Droid Pro General] chimpsnest:
Hey all, this is my first time rooting a moto phone, I'm used to HTC and working w/CWMod and most recently Team Win Recovery.

Anyway, I just want to make sure that I'm going to do it right when it comes to putting a recovery s/ware on the phone - if I understand correctly I need the Bootstrap App (2.99 in market) for the Droid 2 ?

Now, if I have that do I need CWMod as well, or is the bootstrap it's own recovery app? that's where I'm a bit confused. I installed CWMod, but haven't done anything w/it yet.

I like doing everything via recovery and NOT via an app on the phone, so what I'd like to is a nice recovery app, where I can reboot into recovery, run nandroid backups and flash ROMs (if he lets me lol).

Help appreciated.
[Droid Pro General] dettofatto:
1) root with superoneclick

2) install bootstrap

3) install cwm

4) open bootstrap, you can find in this forum

5) before you must push the first item in the app, then open cwm and update clockworkmod and select droid 2 recovery

6) open bootstrap and select reboot recovery the second item...

your phone will reboot and you are in cwmrecovery...
[Droid Pro General] chimpsnest:
Everything makes sense to me except #5. Maybe it will make more sense once I install the app?

I didn't use SuperOneClick, I used Psouza's Motorola Root Tools v 1.7 - worked awesome, I guess it is a 'superoneclick' type of s/ware, just not sure if it's THE s/ware you speak of - either way, same result :-)

Will install the BootStrap later tonight after work and go from there. Are you running a custom ROM on your Pro? I've been so spoiled w/the HTC development, trying to find something for the Pro is like a needle in a haystack, lol

Thank you
[Droid Pro General] Tekkaro:
is there a cwm for different devices or has the cwm to be modificated for every device? And exist somewhere a Forum or Website to watch the cwm progression with download options?
[Droid Pro General] dettofatto:
5) ok my english is not so good... you must open bootstrap, after root and then you must click on "bootstrap recovery"

then open clockworkmod and install droid's 2 recovery.

open again bootstrap and click "reboot recovery"

your phone will reboot on recovery...

I have installed cyanogenmod 7 that you can find on droidforums, or apex. but now I have the regular gb rooted only, because I have some issues with gsm data...

1 - I tried a lot of things, like, put the image files using 7zip or winrar (FAILED, THE APK DOESNT INSTALL, "APLICATION NOT INSTALLED").

2 - extracting the apk, changed the files and signed with "signaptik" (FAILED AGAIN, "APLICATION NOT INSTALLED")

3 - tried using METAMORPH (FAILED, it duplicates the folders, doesnt know why)

4 - tried NINJAMORPH (FAILED, the app doesnt install, same message again ("APLICATION NOT INSTALLED, probally because NINJAMORPH doesnt sign the files? tried to sign with "signaptik", but didnt worked.

Been using SOS for a while now on my Evo 4G - loving it, except that once a day (haven't checked to see if it's at the same time each day) my Evo goes into a boot loop. Thought it might be an app of some setting I had on my Evo, until I installed this ROM on my wife's Evo 4G, and her's is doing it too (with minimal apps installed).

Can anyone offer either some debugging tool I can install to see what might be causing it, or otherwise offer some advise?

What I observe: Phone freezes for a few seconds then goes straight to boot animation (Skips White "HTC Evo 4G"). After a short period (usually less than 45 seconds) boot animation freezes and restarts boot animation. Only way to snap some sense (no pun intended) back into it is to pull the battery. Then it boots up normally.
