Sounds like you killed your download mode button combo. You should have used this instead of the one-click. You'll probably have to buy/make a jig to fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] smackdownn:
i dont know why iam getting very very slow download speed like 2kbps @_@
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
Angrypants, you were wrong, I did read instrucitons, and here is the result =(

Ok, so I'm following these instructions:

And I tried opening Odin with phone plugged in, with it NOT plugged in, with phone in download mode, I still get this, regardless:
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
Also, I think these instructions may be misleading.

Step 2, "adb shell" will get you into shell, where you can't execute the next "adb reboot" command. I think second step is unnessesary..?
[Captivate Android Development] anneoneamouse:
Darkdvr,

The picture is normal when you start ODIN (remember, phone should not be connected to PC at this point).

After the USB cable is plugged in (in download mode or otherwise), ODIN should then recognized something as being connected.

I see "0:[COM6]" in the second-from-the-top small box, at the top left of the upper half of the window.

If this is not the case for you, causes might be:

1) Wrong USB drivers (which ones did you install?)

2) Bad USB cable (try another, you may have an extra if you've a digital camera)

3) Bad USB port (some people have reported that using a different port helps)

4) Maybe you have an application that is auto-mounting the SD (i.e. Winamp) as USB storage? This is a guess, but I've had that cause problems for other operations outside of ODIN.

Hope this helps,

AoN

It's not showing your comm port...

Close everything out..reboot your computer...and try it all again..Make sure you have everything including the drivers installed..If you follow the instructions in the correct sequence...you should see the com port where you have your usb cable plugged in. Make sure you are plugged into the back of the computer...not into any kind of hub on the front or on your desk...If you still don't see the com port..then you should re download odin..and the correct drivers for your phone and operating system.

Same problem, Jig worked

Just for those that are reading. Hopefully this helps some. I also experienced this same problem after months of flashing and flashing back to stock with NO problems. After an issue with bad flash and no longer being able to get into download mode I made a jig and was able to get flashed back (via Odin and ROM of choice), HOWEVER. Every attempt to flash back to stock with one click Odin now fails. Then I have to use Jig again, and flash to Cog with Odin. But every attempt to flash stock now results in boot loop at ATT logo, or Flashing battery loop along with no 3-button ability. Even though I had 3-button working since day one, and never had problems prior to a week ago. I have flashed many roms, many times, and never an issue before with flashing back to stock. I had been running Perception 4 with 1.3.6 Set Kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] DarkDvr:
Thanks, that did help, I see COM6 appear.

Designgears gotta change the instructions then, following them doesn't work it seems.

Instructions say to connect phone BEFORE you open ODIN, which leads to no results. Connecting phone in regular mode and THEN opening Odin does show the COM6 connection.

Thanks for your help man
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
stop calling me angry pants. my comment wasnt out of anger at all, just frustration that you didnt follow the instructions properly

his instructions say so because there are different methods to get into download mode....

so if using method 3 to get into download mode, you would DISCONNECT the usb at your phone and use the vol keys while reconnecting the phone....

if you were using method 1 there is no need to plug in phone AFTER....

reading comprehension...apparently its a rare skill now
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
If you keep restarting the phone or let it keep looping, sometimes it will boot normally after a while. If you don't have a USB jig, I'd suggest making one or buying one. There are some on ebay and people selling them in this thread. You do not have native three button and will always have trouble flashing stock. My phone is the same and I have left the room with it looping the at&t logo to find that it will eventually boot usually. I made a jig and it's worth every penny. The version of Odin that includes the three button fix is good when it works but remember that every time a flash goes bad with anything, you probably will lose the fix until you reapply it. If Odin one click made it all the way through and looked like everything went fine but the phone went into a loop, then the rom flashed fine usually but the boot process is just corrupted. It will eventually boot if you keep trying or let it keep looping.

I can't seem to get the master clear to work - I click it and it says Master Clear Started but then it doesn't do anything else. Is there a way to Master Clear directly from the phone?

I've tried MC with the phone booted up and USB debugging enabled and I've tried it in download mode as well - it doesn't seem to do anything.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
you dont do a master clear in download mode.

its done with phone booted up with usb debugging on...and sdcard cannot be mounted to your computer when you try to run it.

there is also a way to do it straight from the phone

SGS Tools has it or you can use the dialer and punch in:

*2767*3855#

this will wipe EVERYTHING off the internal SD. make sure you have a backup of it
[Captivate Android Development] EtherealRemnant:
Yes I realize that the phone needs to be booted up and USB debugging needs to be turned on - it wasn't working, however, but that key combo you gave me worked perfectly. Thank you!

Just bricked my phone trying to go back to stock, freaked out, swept the hair up off the floor I pulled out and figured "gotta hit XDA, someone there can fix it!". Sure enough, it's back and come payday I'm getting you a couple beers or whatever you want.

Hi there

First, thanks for your post >> [STOCK ROM] Odin3 One-Click Downloader and Drivers CAPTIVATE ONLY

I'm currently flashing my phone hoping it will fix it.

I screwed around for about 40 minutes to figure out the "key combo" method for MY phone.. it seems to be different.

It is running 2.1 and is from Three in Australia.

To get into download mode from the "phone ! computer" screen I had to

1. Take battery out

2. Plug into usb

3. Open Odin

4. Put battery in (phone ! computer appears)

5. Hold volume down + home + power (for about 15 seconds!)

I suspect this may work for other methods, such as down arrow, or both arrows but people don't seem to realize that you CAN do it from when the error is on screen, you just have to hold it for about 15 seconds and you'll see the screen flash when it resets (and then you can try a different combo)

Hope this helps some one :)

[Captivate Android Development] rob989_69:
I'm having issues with this. Actually I'm having issues with USB which is leading me to this. Long story short phone is fine but Can't get it to show up in windows anymore (I posted a seperate post looking for help in the general section) Anyway, I can get the phone in DL mode no problems, but nothing happens in windows. I get no prompts, nothing, Odin doesn't see it. Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] sl8125:
restart your cpu start process over again. make sure odin in open before you plug in your phone while in download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] rob989_69:
Nope, same thing, Odin doesn't see it. Let's make sure I'm doing the right thing. I downloaded the file at the start of this post, extracted it. And ran the EXE or should I run Odin seperately and try it that way? I did before, just not after a reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Sounds like your computer usb ports, driver, or your usb cable is junk. Check the ports with another device, see if it works, if not, check the bios, make sure they are enabled, if they are, check windows, make sure they are being picked up.

Now, I really don't thing the cable is bad unless something happened to it. Plug in your phone while in download mode, right click on my computer, manage, device manager. Right click on the top of the device tree, scan for hardware changes. If it's not detected, I am going to blame drivers, or your windows install is messed up. If other devices show up, probably a driver issue. I would reinstall windows.
[Captivate Android Development] rob989_69:
Other devices are fine. And again, this is on multiple PC's. I don't want to totally rule out PC issue but at this point I'm thinking it's something with the phone.

Tried what you said, it's not detecting it at all.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Have you tried an different cable?
[Captivate Android Development] rob989_69:
No that's tomorrow. I only have the one so far. I'll try at work with a coworkers cable on my XP machine there. If that doesn't do it it's back to the store.
[Captivate Android Development] rob989_69:
Interesting note though. If I turn the phone off, plug in the cable, as soon as the battery indicator pops up, I get the same message as before. If I click the message it shows an unknown device, but in DM it doesn't.
[Captivate Android Development] jbradt:
So does this break tethering? It seems as though a couple users have reported this. Can anyone confirm that tethering still works after flashing?
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
I have reflashed about 6 times now, tethering still working. I am pretty sure their drivers are messed up.
[Captivate Android Development] jbradt:
Awesome, thanks for the quick reply.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Just a quick note:

I have completely reformatted the original post with new data, all organized and pretty.

Let me know if I missed anything that should be in there, like the tethering issues, I have not seen them after flashing.

--edit--

just got stickied!
[Captivate Android Development] jbradt:
I don't know what I am doing wrong. I removed the SIM & SD cards, have gotten to download mode using both adb and the vol/power key combo. The phone shows up in Odin3. When I click start, it does the file analysis for a few seconds and then the top left box switches to bright red and says "FAILED". I am trying a different mirror now. I have also tried every sequence suggested in this thread. Phone is rooted and have some other apps installed - that's about the extent of what I have done. I am lost...Any ideas?

EDIT: So I downloaded from another mirrior - just got the straight .exe, re-installed the drivers, and made sure Kies was closed and not set to start when it detected a device. Worked like a charm this time around. I'm not sure which one of these actually fixed my issued because I did all three at once.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
I think I would blame the drivers or kies, but what mirror did you download from that failed? I will check it out and make sure.
[Captivate Android Development] jbradt:
Yeah, I'm not too sure. I had no issues with connecting the phone to my laptop other than this. Because of this I would tend to lean more toward Kies, but who knows. The first download was from: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=U1U81IH5
[Captivate Android Development] jbradt:
Also, I did not realize this kept all of my files intact on the internal SD card. Voice recordings, downloads, Titanium Backup, etc.. all still there. I thought it would format and then restore. No biggy, just did not know this.
[Captivate Android Development] Main Target:

[Captivate Android Development] rob989_69:
Pull the battery, put it back in. Assuming it doesn't turn right back on, Plug in USB, you should see the battery icon pop up to show charging. Hold down volume up and down and power all at the same time. As soon as the battery icon goes off let go of power and continue holding volume up/down. Should get you the lil yeller digger.

Battery indicator is not moving anymore...

I recently flashed to Cognition, but was getting continuous force close messages on the phone. Then used your one click to revert. Then tried Assonance, but later today found out that callers were not getting through and getting a recorded message as well as some widget issues. Used one click again to revert again... after all of this, the battery indicator is not moving.

I've tried the charge while on, charge while off, turn on, turn off, charge while off, turn back on procedure elsewhere, but I think that's only for dealing with excessive battery use.

Thanks in advance.

[Captivate Android Development] random1204:
Probably a stupid question...

Is there a way that you can flash JF6 but it be pre-rooted? or would that defeat the purpose of flashing to stock?

I switch ROMs a lot so I'm really getting tired of

Backup [reboot]

Flashing Stock [reboot]

Root [reboot]

Install ROM manager [reboot]

Installation of new ROM

Is there any way to bypass any of that?

Wouldn't it make it easier to be able to flash stock JF6 with preinstalled Superuser and ROM Manager applications?

or would those technically be other custom roms?

Sorry to babble on, but I'm just curious about this seeing as it would save SO much time.
[Captivate Android Development] korgmotif:
just keep a copy of the update.zip and make sure its on ur internal sdcard after you've flashed stock. then use the button combo to enter recovery mode (hold both vol, power, after att logo comes up, release power, keep holding vol), then select reinstall packages and continue like usual.

the rom is not actually rooted, but you can now install a new rom without going through rom manager, thus not requiring root.

edit: sorry about not clarifying the thing about update.zip :(. i was referring the update.zip that rom manager puts on your internal sdcard once you install clockwork mod. looks like you got your answer below though. good luck with flashing. there is also a great faq on the galaxy s forum (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=723596) which is a must read. make sure to read the section about backing up efs as well.
[Captivate Android Development] random1204:
Sorry, i just need a little clarifying...

the update.zip from...?

Are you saying you could rename the new rom .zip to update.zip, put it on the root of the internal sd and just click reinstall packages (after you flash stock of course)?
