Android 2.1 Eclair was the original OS at the time of release of Captivate. 2.3.x Gingerbread is the latest update from Samsung. I'm not familiar with Mac computers, but you have to fix your connection/driver issues.

You could always use mobile Odin to flash back to stock. Google mobile Odin. You can find it in the Google play store or probably find it here on XDA using the search feature. Just read carefully.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anderson.rg:
Guys,

I made a terrible mistake in my GN 2!

Just change mi firmware via ODIN, the older is a firmaware from a brazilian operator, Very bad with a lot of garbage in it!, si I decided to put a Clean Firmware on it!

So I decided to go to sammobile and download a Random firmware, take this one: N7100XXDMC3_N7100OJVDMC1_N7100XXDLK7_HOME.tar is from China I think!

And after that the Phone turns on with all the features in order! excepted for the SIM,

Only emergency calls and the error:

CAN´T REGISTER SIM!!!

The big question is, It´s is reversible? what can I Do?

thanks in Advance

EDIT: Let's keep this thread focused on how we can move past old methods, and make some progress towards modding. Thanks, and any relevant input is welcome.

Alright. we can get recovery most likely on MF3. many locked moto devices do with a bootstrap. the problem is that if the system breaks, so does recovery, so the actual part about recovery is useless. therefore, in order to be safe, we need a signed stock firmware. this is how it works with My A2. we have a solid recovery that just hijacks the boot, and if you bootloop, you can FXZ (similar to flashing with odin) back to stock. We can now even get custom kernels through kexec, but even without it, there were working aosp/cm based roms.

So, what we really need here to make any progress is a flashable MF3 firmware, so we can get out of soft bricks. Anyone got any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
There's a few threads about this already which contain several ideas...some tried, some theorized. Why make a new one if it isn't bringing anything new to the table?

Don't get me wrong, your help is MUCH appreciated, it's just a problem when the forum starts getting filled up with information that already exists in other threads.

I think Adam Outler's "Let's get this bootloader unlocked" thread in the "Development" section would be a good place to contribute or maybe even the 'Software Update" thread in the General section.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:
Sorry, I will admit I jumped in a little quick here. My main point is that it should not be too difficult to get custom recovery working. I am just afraid to do it until I know I can recover, as I am sure the process will involve multiple bricks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mg2195:
Part of the problem is...this isnt motorola...from what ive been reading is the bootloader checks the phone on boot and overrights any custom recovery with a stock one. Im nkt saying it isnt possible to get a recovery with out an unlock or loki like exploit because I really dont know...actually, isnt the previous loki exploit prettt mucg what your talking about? A way to get recovery and flash with out a bootloader unlock

Although I do agree we need a safe way to return to stock (firmware leak/upload for odin) before we can even try and start experimenting

Theres instructions here on here to pull a firmware from a device...can anyone on mf3 try it? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1348392

-from there maybe we can package it into an odin tar, as heimdall currently can not flash system partition as our device isnt supported
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:
Well, if anyone has a link to something that actually explains how loki works, I would appreciate it. I am trying to learn quickly, and as you all know, devices are very different.

From what I understand, LOKI allows recovery to be overwritten, or is at least more permanent. What happens if you were to totally kill your system, could you still get into recovery with loki?

I understand that this is not motorola, and I am not trying to be stubborn here, but I fell like the same basic boot hijack that a ton of locked devices use should work.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
Please don't apologize, I have no doubt you are going to be a valuable part of what is going to go on with this phone. The only reason I brought up not making a new thread is because of the fragmentation of information different threads cause. Here is the link to Adam's Bootloader Unlock thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2255644

Adam has requested (though many didn't respect his request) to not post anything in that thread that doesn't make progress in unlocking the bootloader.

That is why I also mentioned maybe using the "software update" thread as a thread to keep everything together in:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2357039

This thread we are in now can be used as such a thread as well, I just think it is counter productive to have 3 or 4 or more threads going about the same (general) thing. The fragmentation it creates is confusing and time consuming.

So maybe we all need to decide where (which thread) to put all of the bootloader unlock / recovery information into to prevent fragmentation? Maybe rename this thread something like "Bootloader unlock discussion thread" so that ideas and discussion can occur here and any firm findings can be transferred to Adam's thread? If we do this, it will be important to import or at least take into consideration what has already been mentioned and tried in all of the other threads so we don't waste time on something that has already been done or tried.

Here is a link to the "LOKI" thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2292157

There are links in the OP of that thread to give better technical information about what LOKI does and how it is used.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:
Thanks, It still looks to me like loki is a bit more advanced than what I am talking about, though the underlying principle is the same. LOKI allows the phone to actually boot a kernel (or recovery kernel) a boot hijack just loads some files on top of what is already running.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ashaton:
Here is Adam's post where he sums up the boot sequence for the S4: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=40980436&postcount=46

That may give you some guidance. Towards the end of that thread, Aou posted a possible leaked Samsung PIT file signer but I tested it and confirmed it wasn't actually signing PITs - just making them without the signature. I'm still doing a lot of research and don't have anything more to contribute right now unfortunately.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:
Thanks, I am sure that will prove helpful.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
This is Adam Outler's Samsung Galaxy S3 bootloader unlock thread. Though it is for the Verizon S3, it still goes very in depth about how the hardware and software are tightly interconnected. Many of the principals still apply to the S4 bootloader. As you can see, the S3 was unlocked via a leak (which is what I think it will take for the S4), but the information in this thread can be very helpful, especially the bootloader sequence parts.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1769411

The entire thread is very interesting. Starting around "Post# 115" and beyond there is talk about (what i believe) you are trying to do with the bootstrap idea. Maybe it will help you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:

At least that way we can possibly have a safe way back to stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
One potential problem is that bootloaders can not be pulled from devices. They have to be obtained through official firmware releases. I'm not sure if pulling the bootloader(s) from the MF3 OTA and inserting them into an MF3 image pulled from a device will equal an ODIN flashable TAR? I think the bootloader(s) in the MF3 OTA are somehow altered once flashed onto a phone. And because the altered bootloader can not be pulled from the device after the flash it could pose a problem to try and put the unaltered version (from the pre-installed MF3 OTA into a device image and create an ODin flashable TAR. Basically, I'm not sure the phone will accept a pre-flashed MF3 bootloader onto a phone that has already experienced a post flash MF3 bootloader. If that makes any sense? (LOL)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] mg2195:
Ahhhh I see...makes sense
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] scott14719:
I'm just theorizing there from what I "think" I know. It still might be worth a try. The resulting TAR could:

1. Work, and if so we will have an ODIN flashable firmware for MF3. It doesn't matter if it is 'Frankenstein'd" or not...if it works it works!

2. Not work, but only fail in ODIN not causing anything to change or brick.

3. Not work and cause a soft or hard brick that can not be recovered from because it didn't work.

So, once again, finding someone to test the finished product out would be an issue. I'm guessing someone that is already hard bricked and already previously on MF3 could test because they already have nothing to lose (with JTAG not working for MF3).

I think Aou has deconstructed the MF3 OTA and pulled the bootloader(s) out of it. If someone can pull an MF3 image from their device and the bootloader can be added to it...and it can be made into a flashable TAR, maybe it would work. I don't think it will because of the reasons I listed in my last post...but it might.

Anyone willing to put it together and try it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:
I think the problem is that it won't be signed. That is how it was with the a2. We just used fastboot but it would not flash an unsigned image
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ashaton:
I think Aou already made some MF3 tarballs for Odin in his stock MF3 thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2378946&highlight=mf3

He says they don't work because they aren't signed:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:
Yup, that's what I was saying. I can try to port a bootstrap cwm, but I really do not want to be the one to test it
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ashaton:
Ah, you replied while I was in the middle of writing my post!

I don't know if everyone has seen this, but if anyone was planning to wait for MF3 to come to Kies, it doesn't look like it's going to happen. You can read the full thread for details, it's pretty short, but basically this is an OTA only update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] lkrasner:
I forked the sources for koush's bootstrap for the droid x. Please check this out: https://github.com/lkrasner/DroidXBootstrap

You should be able to see what the hijack does better, and maybe understand more how it could work for us. any input would be appreciated.

Does someone have a map of our device partitions and their block names? as well as their ability to be written with the locked bl. with that, I should be able to whip up something that will work, assuming the hijack used is not moto specific.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General] ashaton:
Yeah I pulled my PIT file when I was testing the signer tool, it has all of that in it. See attached.

I wasn't questioning (????) if progress was actually made, I was questioning the need for the comment. I don't want to see this thread get crapped in like Adam Outler's "Bootloader Unlock" thread in the Development section did. I don't see how posting "yay progress" helps to do anything but fill the thread full of useless comments. I'm sure everyone has something to say so can everyone imagine how this thread would look if EVERYONE posted a comment in it?

When progress happens (and with every little step it does), "Progress" can speak for itself.

I'm not trying to be a **** about this, but if needless comments are allowed to continue (even if in good nature) this thread will become useless.
