still no luck...my pc won't detect the device either which is the main problem...tried adb reboot recovery and says "error:device not found"...tried a bunch of combos with side buttons..I just have a flashy at&t logo or battery indicator when not powered on that stops at the 12 o'clock mark. What should I try next?
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
For the people having issues, check the batch number under your battery in the back of the phone. If you have a batch 1008 (should be 1006,1007,1008,1009) something like that, but if you have a batch 1008 and you messed up while flashing back to stock then there is nothing you can do because you no longer have access to download mode. (unless you make a jig or something)

Now I'm ashamed of myself.

I always used DGs developments but I didn't donate anything to him :(

Will make sure I will at payday, Christmas is coming :)
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
Don't make a jig. Follow these directions and it should work.

1.	Open Odin in your pc. (make sure you have the correct drivers installed)

2.	Remove your SIM, battery, and external sd card if you have one.

3.	Put battery back in, hold the volume + & volume - buttons and plug in your USB from pc (first) to phone (second)and do not let go of the volume buttons. (Do not touch the power button either!)

4.	You should enter download mode. (Yellow screen with android shoveling.)

5.	Odin should then see your phone. Just push start and watch the magic happen!

Newbie needing to get back to android 2.1 from 2.2

I appreciate the guidance, drivers and software to get my Samsung Captivate back to 2.1, but it didn't work. I followed the instructions and it looked like it worked but when it was all over and I went back into the the about section it still said firmware version 2.2 , Baseband Version I897UCJI6. Could it be the version of Odin3 i'm using? The odin .exe i'm using says I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low.exe

Any help would be appreciated!
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
YES!!! its absolutely the wrong version!

notice that in the odin file you are using it says JI6?! you think thats just a coincidence?

you need JF6

which is in the FIRST POST in this thread......wow...just wow
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
Yea hahahaha JI6 is different from JF6. JI6 is basically stock 2.2 firmware. JF6 is stock 2.1 eclair firmware. Get the downloader from the OP of this thread.
[Captivate Android Development] thebestguru333:
I wish these instructions were a bit detailed for some of us that are less informed.

I want to know if we have the phone on or off. and what kind of usb connection we use, kies? mass storage, media player, or under usb debugging its only one type of connection?

Additionally, it doesnt indicate when to master clear.

Can someone help me out. I intend to use method 2 to get into download mode, as it seems to be the easiest for me to understand.

Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] aCx85:
Hey guys just did the Odin3 Reflash everything went well according to the 1 click program. But now all I get is AT &T screen that flashes on and off ? AT&T then black. keeps doing this any suggestions ?

Cant seem to get in download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
method 3 is the most surefire way to get there....

as for your other questions...

on or off?? how would you enable USB debugging and wipe the phone if it was off or flash a rom for that matter.....really...use some common sense there

connection? it says to enable USB debugging...enable it and you will see...

you master clear when you want to wipe the entire INTERNAL SDcard...the 13+gb partition...

you will notice in rom threads that some of them indicate you should perform a master clear....make a backup of your data first...pictures from the camera are located in DCIM folder...

any help please.

Can only turn phone on when not pluged to computer .... Also it only flash AT & T screen then black cant get into download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] clam5050:
What are you trying to do?

What have you already done?

Most likely, you'll want to remove the SD andSIM cards. Then put into download mode by holding the volume up & down buttons at the same, while the phone is still off.while continuing to hold v. up and down, plug in the usb cable connected to your system that is running odin.exe

I'm getting the same problem... I've reflashed with Odin3 4 times not and still I get the AT&T look screen. Should I be calling Samsung?
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
I have a batch 1010 phone as well. I get the AT&T screen flash quite a bit when I flash with Odin one click or the Odin+ 3 button. After one click is done and says all is well, if it goes back into the loop, I've found that I can keep pulling the battery and it will eventually just turn on normally. I made a jig too and that is the best 15 bucks I've ever spent. I would love to know if any batch 1010's have a working 3 button recovery or download on stock jf6. Anyway, I found that if you run Odin a few times it will eventually work right and you can flash your rom.

Ok so I tried to install using odin 1.7 with the june factory from sam's firmware from here...

after one-click failing on numerous occasions.

1.7 appeared to almost work but I now get a kernel failure upload mode message.

I even tried 1.3 and pretty much the same thing happens. When I use just odin-1 click i don't get the kernel failure but i get a battery image with the circle loader that stops at the 12 o'clock position.

Here is the kernel message after 1.7 or 1.3 tries...

Ok so I have been searching for the past 5 hours trying to find a solution to my problem to no avail. I am able to get into download mode with my homemade jig but there is no possible way to get my captivate to install the ROM. I tried installing it on numerous systems and it passes everytime with 1-click and 1.7 as well as 1.3. I either get a kernel error for odin 1.7 or 1.3 or battery with clock wheel for the 1-click upon reboot of the phone. I have read if one can get into download mode it is always possible to recover but I still haven't yet found a solution to this specific problem.

My main question from this is quick post is

Does anyone know why i can't get to installation when my phone reboots upon completion of the downloading process of my odin installs...Please is there somebody out there that can answer to this...see my above posts too for my specifics to the problem>>>??? Thanks in advance

Specs---Windows XP sp3

i could get into download mode n flash the fone but when i on it does go beyond the galaxy s screen
[Captivate Android Development] onelight:
Ok so its kind of a similiar problem to me...I can get it to the ATT logo then a battery just flashes with a battery indicator and clock with 1 click....So u just see a samsung logo and it stands still or does it show ATT at all? Did u see files install after odin reset ur phone?

...Maybe if u want to take a risk u could try the other odin's 1.7 or 1.3 with the .pit and pda file from http://www.samfirmware.com although that is what is giving me the kernel errors...U might have more luck with it tho...but if u don't have a jig yet or want to build one it might not be worth the try yet if it semi-bricks ur phone. I find this one-click is troublesome for me although others are having such great success. I even got it to work on another phone which is very strange since it was also a 1010.

I have no idea how this is possible but I got my phone to work and install using I897UCJH3 file from http://www.samfirmware.com using odin 1.7..I tried to install with another firmware as well but this one took...I am gonna try to go back to factory again wish me luck

Just flashed

Ok - so I have a one week old Captivate. I played with the stock ROM for less than a day before I rooted the phone (that was fun) - then I installed the "non-market apps" and did all sorts of cool stuff. Then I flashed to the Axura ROM and had issues with my Exchange account disappearing - so I reflashed it - again, after half a day my account (along with my contacts and calendar!) would disappear. So...using the power of Odin3I went back to the stock ROM - snooze..... I found this thread. I don't know what happened to my phone but I can not access any hardware recover/download method - no matter what button combination I use - using adb shell I was able to put the phone into download mode with Odin open and updated to this ROM.

I'll certainly post my findings

Cheers
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
You have a batch 1008 phone. When you use this one click downloader you lose the ability to enter recovery and download mode with your buttom combinations. If you want to flash back to stock without swapping out your sbl.bin file (the file that causes you to lose the 3-button ability) you need to check out this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=818439 I too have a batch 1008 and if you use the Odin one click in this thread I always lose my ability and have to use ADB as well. Its a pain, but if something happened to a 1008 phone while flashing odin your phone could get bricked for good!!! So learn how to use the regular Odin to flash the one that comes with the 3-button fix!! Hope this helped.
[Captivate Android Development] onelight:
is it possible to get stock firmware working with clockwork or titanium or any other program besides odin b/c odin 1-click never works on my phone. Every time I get a battery with a wheel after 1-click or a kernel error any other method of install. I had to revert back to I897UCJH3 after playing around with all the firmwares on samsfirmware What can I do to get stock besides using Odin?....
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
Check the link in the post right above yours. That thread has a different version of odin that isn't the one-click one but uses the same stock firmware. Give it a shot.
[Captivate Android Development] onelight:
Thanks I tried that also already...I even used some guys customized adb loader for odin to get into download mode with cmd prompt even though I could have just used the jig i made. The pda file was slightly different in size but to no avail i still haven't gotten my phone to work with stock firmware. It is almost like ATT found a way to prevent me from installing an old version of firmware on this phone. I was able to get my other phone to work on one try and is running the newest cognition but this one is a nightmare to get stock on...

[Captivate Android Development] uberushaximus:
This is the exact same problem I was having when I tried to use odin on my phone (1009), use a jig to force your phone into download mode and flash to JI6, then flash this kernel (as PDA in odin) and root your phone. Then you can install clockworkmod and you're set to flash custom roms.
[Captivate Android Development] onelight:
I would only get the kernel panic from installing with odin 1.3 or 1.7 with stock firmware I897UCJF6. Odin-1click took me back to a battery with a wheel. I got my phone to work only with the I897UCJH3 ROM and odin 1.7...I tried 2 other ROMs from samsfirmware.com and that was the only one that took. Then I installed the latest cognition ROM over I897UCJH3 ROM even though they recommend it to be I897UCJF6...It seems the cognition ROM is working perfectly despite not getting it to the recommended factory ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] mremer:
Feature/function/speed (with LagFix) this ROM is great - only downside (and it may be me) is battery life is sh*t - has anyone else experienced this? I received a few phone calls this morning, used bluetooth, listened to some MP3's on the way in and replied to a couple of email messages - on 3g, and Edge - the battery is down to 20% and while connected to the USB port of my computer has DROPPED from 22% initially. My iphone was bad, but not this bad - any thoughts before I flash back to 2.1?

one person from another thread posted...

- Plug in wall, charge till 100%.

- Unplug. Turn off. Plug in until battery reads 100%.

- Unplug. Turn on. Once phone is fully on, turn off.

- Plug in until battery reads 100%.

- Unplug and notice the difference.

Hopefully it works...
