Well...I figured I might as well see if I could restore back from JPY rom to a rooted stock JH7 via cwm recovery restore.....It failed...and failed big time..Which really sucks since this would have been the easiest route to take..

Luckily...I have the persistence of a bull dog...and proceeded on...I had 2 other back ups loaded..both of Phoenix..ver 1.0 and ver. 1.5 I tried the earliest one first..just to see..and it got stuck on the boot up screen and there it stayed. I waited a full 30 minutes..and decided to pull the battery and see what would happen..Nada....same scenario..just stayed at the boot up screen. Well..back to the red recovery and selected the last remaining back up.....and after 10 minutes I heard the voodoo voices...and I thought I was good to go...Wrong... it made it into Operation Phoenix animated boot screen..and then to the lock screen switcher..then all of the force close pop ups started appearing...They finally stopped..and it rebooted over and over all the time the fc's pop ups came up...I did this 5 times..and it kept getting further and further along...but never allowing me to go into usb debugging to copy over a new rom to flash..I kept pressing it to go into recovery...and each time I made it that far between the fc's...it would re-boot...Well...durn...I was starting to worry at this point....so..after pulling the battery and getting back into recovery via the 3 button method....I went ahead and wiped the davlik cash to see if this was what was holding me out..just to find out it wasn't...same fc's...and then re-boot

So...I pulled the battery...opened Odin 1 click..said a prayer..and proceeded to do method 3 since this is a 19000 rom...nope...didn't work..nothing...didn't even boot...So...I tried method #2..went straight into download mode..registered my com port..I said another prayer and said if it croaks ..so be it...and hit the start button...It flashed to stock with out a hitch and rebooted...Went ahead..enabled usb debugging and did a master clear just because I have always done this..rebooted again...enabled usb debugging again ..set to notify..and powered off...Said another bigger louder prayer...and tried the 3 button combo...Badda Bing.. 2e recovery came right up...Naturally after MC'ing it..it didn't have anything on the internal so I couldn't re-root..but that's ok...it's small inconvenience to copy the update.zip back over and start from a fresh clean phone again...

So..there you have it...the cwm recovery back up of the rooted stock rom( JH7)didn't work for me...so I won't even bother doing this after I re-root it..but..the good news is..using this on my 1012 build works like it should..and that makes me quite a bit happier about using it..

[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
You didn't diable the voodoo lagfix so now you need to flash back to stock with oding and start over.

You HAVE to disable voodoo lagfix even when using Rom Manager With Clockwork or else CWM can't properly see the files/dirs/partition to write data to and you just reboot loop in CWM recovery

I need help!

Ok so, I had a rooted Samsung Captivate, and I tried to install the perception 10.1 ROM, so when I went in to my recovery mode I did the reinstall packages, and the screen with the green letters came up, so I went down to install zip from sd card. When I went down and pressed the perception 10.1 It wasnt loading up, it stayed at 0% for over 10 minutes, so I held the power and the volume buttons again and it exited, and I thought everything was fine, But when my phone booted up EVERYTHING was gone, It gave up an error saying that android stopped running and force close, I lost backgrounds Android apps, all that I have on it is ATT bloatware and samsung settings. So that is why I am here, when I plug my phone in and try to go to download mode it doesnt, It just boots up. Can anyone tell me why? I just got my phone on Christmas and if I dont get it back to its original state I will be done for. By the way, I am sorry I hijacked this thread, but I am in desperate need of wisdom! Thanks in advance!

[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
Did you try all of the methods listed on the 1st page to go back into the download mode ?

You can try leaving your battery out for 3-5 minutes..between tries then try method 2 & 3 again...

[Captivate Android Development] kharn777:
Im pretty sure... I took out the batter for about 2-3 mins in between tries... After about the 4th I took out my SIM, tried some more, but it just always seemed to boot up without going to DL mode... I have no idea what happened.

EDIT: I got my phone into DL mode using method 3, I'm about to flash the original ROM thingy from the Odin.

[Captivate Android Development] hbk19:
I was able to flash my phone using this Odin, but it's now stuck on the AT&T screen in a bootloop. I did a battery pull, but after that, no matter what I do, I can't enter download mode at all. I can't enter recovery mode (because of the boot loop) so I'm unable to use adb, and no matter what I try to do, when I plug my phone to the computer, the battery-level screen shows up.

Help, anybody? Need some help ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Never mind, it worked. The AT&T logo kept flashing on and off, but I just left it on while searching for a solution and it just powered on. Made me jump too, since the volume was damn loud and it's 1:20 AM here. :D

[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
This flasher was bad anyway, as it disables key combos on all but batch 1007 and earlier phones (and a some early batch 1008). Everyone else is probably better off using something else. There are other versions of odin and firmware around if you search. Heimdall also has a nice GUI now. And, by the way, if you just want to flash some froyo ROM then don't even bother flashing stock first.

Can I run MASTER CLEAR on a Samsung Vibrant? I don't care about the files anywhere on the phone at this point. I just want the internal card wiped.

I'm unable to boot, but i can get to recovery and odin.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
You have to first use Odin to flash a ROM before you can use Master Clear. Master Clear is run when the phone is booted and in USB debug mode. All that aside, I don't know if Odin one-click will work on a Vibrant and I honestly wouldn't risk it (considering even some Captivates have issues with it).
[Captivate Android Development] chasesavestheday:
glad i read and found this post ( http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36 ) since i do have a 1010. although maybe mine is different, i CAN 3 button to recovery and CAN also 2 button/usb to download mode. should i still stay away from 1 click to JF6? (the phone came stock with JH7)
[Captivate Android Development] warp.asylum:
I have a build 1010 phone and successfully used Odin 1-click JF6 last night for the first time. I was timid about trying it, having read reports of other people getting bricked. But, I was ready to go with a jig and a (hopefully) thorough understanding of recovering per the instructions in the link you posted. Turned out that everything went smooth.

If you want to try it, you probably want to have a jig made and tested before you start, as that seems to be the only way to get into download mode if 1-click bricks your phone. Also look at connexion2005's flashing tutorial video here if you haven't already.

Good luck to you!
[Captivate Android Development] chasesavestheday:
ive flashed many of times (use to have 1007 until it shutoff all the time) i'll check out the video! also have materials for the jig ready, guess i should build it and test first. ty much!

does it matter if lagfix isn't disabled first?
[Captivate Android Development] LimaI896:
Odin link doesnt work for me, 404 cant find.
[Captivate Android Development] Breakin' Ranh:
Yes, you need lag fix to be disabled before you flash back to stock. That's a huge no no, and a quick ticket to brick-ville. Why? Because lag fix converts the phone entire memory to ext4 format when the original format on our phones is rfs.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
actually, when using the ONE CLICK ODIN, it will remove the lagfix for you....if using the other ODIN, i dont think it does, unless you choose to repartition, but i dont recommend new users messing with those settings ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Breakin' Ranh:
For real?? That's cool, wish I knew haha I read that some members were getting their phones bricked on the other odin 3-button fix thread. Damn that reparition, it would always take like 10 min to convert back and forth (ext4 to rfs/vice versa). My mom's build 1010 phone can use one click odin :'( I can't. Thanks Pirateghost for the clarification. :D
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
both of my phones have been the 1007 model, and i always use ODIN ONE CLICK when i need to get rid of rom and lagfix to try something completely new.

so i am not 100% sure how to do it properly with the standalone version of ODIN
[Captivate Android Development] dirtbagg:
So how many have been succesful using odin one click with 1010 models...i seen the thread with the stand alone versiin wich looks easy just longer...i had 1008 and went good flashin back to stock about fifty times....and odin made phone turn off and not even a jig could bring it back...att sent me the 1010.....just wondering
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Why risk it? Unless you happen to have a jig lying around, or don't mind the risk of needing one immediately after things go wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] dirtbagg:
Yea i was just curious man
[Captivate Android Development] yogesh892:
can someone please post a working link, thank you
[Captivate Android Development] warp.asylum:
I successfully used Odin 1-click JF6 with my Build 1010 phone once. Haven't tried it a second time because so far, I'm happy with the ROM I'm using.

I did have a tested jig ready to go, and the Build 1010 recovery instructions open in my browser, though. My reasoning was that either 1-click would work and I would be all set, or I'd brick it and have to use the recovery instructions. And if 1-click isn't an option, I'd have to use those instructions anytime I wanted to return to stock before flashing a new ROM anyway. So I figured there was no harm in trying the 1-click just to see, and it turned out to work just fine for me.

YMMV.

I have JH7, should I back it up or can I rely on Odin when I need to go back to JH7?

I have a stock 2.1 JH7 build # 1006

Kernal 2.6.29

I got this phone two days before it was released, but I'm just now getting around to rooting, flashing, etc. So I'm definitely a newbie. :)

I have done the following:

*rooted

*backed up my Apps/Data with Titanium Backup

*used ROM Manager to backup my stock JH7 ROM

*used SGS Kernal Flasher to backup my 2.6.29 Kernal

*installed SDK tools on my PC

*downloaded Odin to my PC

I have been trying to make sure I have a backup of everything before I do my first ROM flash. I have everything backed up to my PC right now except my stock ROM. It's taking forever to copy over to my PC...literally all day.

Do I really need to have an original copy of my JH7 ROM saved to the side, or can I rely on the downloadable copy that I have also found on the web?

I have that copy saved to my PC (JH7_OTA.zip)

Does it sound like I'm ready for my first flash? Can I rely on Odin to get back to JH7 in the future, or should to try to wait for my original JH7 to copy to my PC?

What I'd ultimately like to flash is:

Having a problem getting into download mode. Always worked without a problem, but one clicked back to JF6 no problem, tried to update to JH7 OTA and the update failed. So, tried to go back into download to redo the JF6, and whenever I try to 3 button combo into download mode all I'm getting is recovery mode.

Edit: Phone is acting really strange, finally got the 2 button/plug in usb method to work, so I one clicked back to jf6. After the flash was done, I went and checked and was able to get into download mode regularly with the 3 button method. Tried it AGAIN just to be sure, and now again all I can do is get into recovery mode.

Try holding vol buttons and plugging in USB with the battery removed, then while holding the buttons insert the battery. If that fails take it to AT&T and tell them their OTA update broke your phone.

Thank you soooo much :) Quick question, I have a stock JH7 and this is a JF6 download I believe. Should I be concerned?

Or if I ever go back to stock using this...does this mean I'm not really going back to JH7 ever? I have an early build 1006 if that matters.
