Same Problem

i have the same prob and if i try to recovery mode (i.e. by pressing volume buttons and power button simultaneously)

i get following type of errors

"E:failed to mount /cache (Invalid argument)

E:Can't mount/cache/recovery/recovery_kernel_log

E:copy_kernel_file :: Can't open /cache/recovery/recovery_kernel_log"

kindly sugeest some way out
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kScorpion:
I have done everything possible to get it connected and recognized by the PC & all is failing. I have tried to "manually" install the Samsung composite Device driver via "have disk method in Device Manager.

In XP:

I load device manager and than do the following:

Click Universal Serial Bus Controllers

Right click "unknown device" which is the captivate

Select Update Driver

Select Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)

Select Don't Search. I will choose the driver to install. (Click Next)

Select "Have Disk" with the (show compatible devices) checked

Browse to the directory of extracted 32bit Windows XP Drivers: SGH-i897_Captivate_USB_Drivers_5_02_0_2

Select "ssadadb2.inf" & click open

And than i get the msg saying:The specified location does not contain information about your hardware

...WTF...:) I mean really...

Windows 7 Ultimate:

Same procedure as above until you select have disk, pick a proper x64 driver provided by XDA - also tried the Universal_Naked_Driver_Beta_0.6 ...there was progress that got me very excited - the Phone was detected as: Samsung Android Composite Device. Was I happy...until i clicked next and got this msg:Samsung Android USB Composite Device - This device cannot start. (Code10)...

There must be a solution: I had the phone bricked when i first tried to change from stock rom, managed to load it in download mode, and it was detected fine on all systems via USB with the same accessories, worked like a charm...so when this happened i wasn't concerned, as i thought id follow standard procedure, accept it did not work.

Anyone?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
Let's try this since you seem to be stuck in a boot loop.

adb wait-for-device reboot recovery

Make sure your phone is plugged in and reboot it. If your machine recognizes the phone at any point in the boot process it will kick it into recovery.

Once there you can try to restore the backup again.

If this doesn't work, you will most likely need JTAG service. Because of the bad image flash your device might not "think" it is a Captivate any longer and that's why the drivers aren't working.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kScorpion:
Red_81 :Thank You. Would you please be more specific & put into a 1,2,3...process?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red_81:
1. Power off device

2. Plug in to computer

3. Open a command prompt

4. Navigate to adb.exe (android sdk or inside my kk4 root utility)

5. Enter command above

6. Boot up phone.

7. Hopefully go into recovery
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kScorpion:
Thank you. I've been endlessly fighting the achievement of the PC systems to detect the captivate & no results. Thank you all for you help...when i have time i'll JTAG this device, or probably not even going to bother and pick up a SGIII. By the way Red_81:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1680048 is an amazing app, if only my phone was detected as it's recognized as unknown device, so there isn't much it can do. Although i highly recommend it to anyone else whose phone is detected.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] hunter44:
Amidst all these activities of custom roms, hacks, mods, roots etc I wonder how pervasive are these activities in the mobile phone community in the U. S. of A versus those who just use their devices without modification to how they came from the factory or carrier. What do you think those "stock" users might be missing?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Rulinglionadi:
They are missing the visual treats and tweaked performance..

But ICS and sammys TW has its own merits...so they wont feel left out..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] leafsacc:
I root because I need apps that require root (ie. button savior, reboot to recovery, jkay deluxe, root explorer so I can change boot animation, mobile odin, nandroid backups).

Flashing is actually pretty dangerous but:

I flash because I live on CassiesXtraLite. I need a slim rom.

I'm on CM9 release candidate now.

The only reason I would go back to stock is for the FM Radio app or to sell my phone. And since I won't be going to any drive-in theatres or getting rid of my phone anytime soon....

in my own personal opinion, i think you're missing a lot by not getting cassiesxtralite.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] praetorius:
People buy the device for what's been advertised, so they do not lose anything at all.

People root and customize because they want something which is not offered officially.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] srik02003:
for tweaked performance

There is lot of bloatware that i don't want on my phone which i can uninstall by rooting and custom roms are always perform well compared to stock..

edit: fixed the mounting points from the op's thread he redirected to.

[General Questions and Answers] Inotamira Orani:
I have googled, I have searched, and I have tried changing APNs with a working phone of the same make and model. Ever since I bought this phone I have only been able to send MMS to everyone but can only receive from people on Sprint. I have gone through dozens of roms and currently settled on Calkulin's E4GT 2 ICS rom and otherwise everything else but that works.

Also, I do understand that I need to make any APN changer in ICS a system application and I know how so I know I didn't make that mistake. My roommate who owns the same exact phone has always been able to send and receive MMS from everyone. So if anyone could tell me the solution to my problem it would be greatly apreciated.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Paperinik68:
Well, I tried... That new girl was pretty, her stats amazing and tasty as she could possibly get.

But she was stupid. She wouldn't do things that I wanted her to do when I wanted her to do them, and was made out of mostly empty silicon. So, I crawled back to my wife of one year. Not as sexy, but trustworthy and faithful and ready to serve me whatever I need (except an unlocked bootloader). She's not as pretty as she once was, and definitely feels a bit heavier than the first time I laid eyes on her.

But I am happy to be back with her.
[Motorola Photon 4G] imiller913:
I was thinking about picking up an S3. What didn't you like about it?
[Motorola Photon 4G] MikeyLee:
What was wrong with the GSIII ??
[Motorola Photon 4G] dsims7_2000:
I almost did it 3 days after release. I went to the forum here and read some of the post and changed my mind. Did the same with new EVO! I say negative things sometimes about Photon, but it really seems to be the best workhorse.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Paperinik68:
I wouldn't say there was anything particularly wrong with the SG3. The radios are a bit weak, but GPS worked well.

Touchwiz isn't all that bad, although a couple of the applications were really annoying (text messaging balloons and unformatted emails really pissed me off).

The phone is very fast, but the battery ended up actually draining quite quickly.

Really, the problem was simple. My photon does a lot of things REALLY well. I'm addicted to the car dock functionality, the kickstand, the nice alarm features, the incredible reception and the world capability.

Sprint's network is really bad for me right now, so going back into contract with them for two years doesn't make a lot of sense even with a spectacular device such as the GS3.

So, it made more sense for me to stick it out with the Photon until something better comes along, or I call Sprint's bluff and leave for greener pastures (not really going to happen, since I've been with them for 17 years).
[Motorola Photon 4G] Android 17:
Yeah, although the SG3 seems like a great phone in it's own respect, I can't justify upgrading to it. It's not enough of a leap, not to mention you lose out on global gsm, better radios on the Photon and the kickstand.
[Motorola Photon 4G] arman3986:
I WAS JUST ABOUT TO SELL MY PHOTON AND MOVE TO A SGS2 OR A GALAXY NEXUS. NOW I WILL WAIT PATIENLY FOR ICS..

This usually only happens when you flash a GB radio in ICS, or an ICS radio in GB. Try to flash a stock ICS radio. On the Sensation, radios seem to make little difference.

Hi,

It looks like your are on a stock HTC kernel.

People may reach the figures you are after by using different kernels and setups.

Go to the DEVELOPMENT FORUM and look or search for :

show-p1984

SebastianFM

These 3 make their own kernels,and they can be adjusted to suit your needs.

Remember,always make a nandroid backup BEFORE you make any changes to your phone.

Changing the radio will not make any difference to the battery.

You could also try changing the ROM.

Use currentwidget from google play. then add a current widget to your homescreen. in the options select logging enabled. and select duration for logging 60/120 seconds will do the job. from there you will be able to view the voltage usage log. it's good for fine-tuning.

All the best.

Got the dock and a new case today. Not really liking the case with the keyboard on. For one thing the keyboard/tablet doesn't close well now as you have the leather frame around the screen. Seems like the extra thickness will cause things to loosen up after time.

Also the case has magnets to hold it closed but it won't even close with the keyboard and tablet inside it. The flap just sits there. I have adjusted the tablet as best I can to make sure its in properly. Not very thrilled with this case so far. And honestly a little concerned about loosening the hinge over time.

I can't wait for its release, my last phone was a TMO SGSII and it was under warranty, so once the Note comes out for TMO if I ever lose my AT&T note my insurance has to replace it for the TMO note :) I called to make sure, I guess Asurion covers the person not the phone.
