Ok. Let me get this straight:

Vol UP + Vol Down + Power = Cycle to the AT&T World phone screen.. If you let go the second time the screen is shown, you get the recovery mode (four options including 'reboot')?

Vol UP + Vol Down + USB = recovery mode?

Simply trying to turn it on = recovery mode?

Sorry if I sound like a moron. Just trying to make sense of what your problem is.

I'm actually getting the same issue you are now that I'm attempting to download from the market - I had reflashed stock, flashed SRE, then restored my apps via Titanium - didn't even think to try market downloads till I saw your post.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I am reflashing now, and while I didn't notice this problem, did anyone notice anything being moved/deleted from your internal memory?
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
Why when I tried to flash 1.2.2a did I get stuck in the reboot loop. It would never update. Do you need to always flash back to a stock jh3 then load the update on. I do have a nadroid backup of which I am restoring now after finally getting into download mode and reflashing to stock. Then rooted reloaded rom manager then restored my backup with sre 1.2.1

OH BTW tossed you a donation
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
not always, but this one you had to flash stock first
[Captivate Android Development] itpromike:
Hmmm... so now launcher pro is force quitting on me and it's set to default so I'm in a loop and I can't get out of the force quit loop.... any tricks to stop this and get to the original home launcher?
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
download home switcher.
[Captivate Android Development] malfuncion:
I am still using a cap firmware.

Regular Power on, just hitting power= ATT screen , Installing software in white then below it in red "dont turn off phone and connect power cable as soon as possible" bout 3 seconds later in red "Phone rebooting". It will do this over and over and over.

Power+Vol Up, POwer+Both Vols= Reboot continuously, AT&T screen, AT&T Screen, AT&T screen. If I let it go (power) on the second reboot like instructions say- it goes back to the above problem "Installing software"

Power+Vol Down, Power+VOl Down+Home, nothing. Just does first example.

When plugged in USB, following instructions no SIM, NO BATT, NO CABLE. I plug in Cable, holding vols, it goes to a little white circle (rotating), then to the empty battery with solid circle, then to green battery with white dots below it.

No matter the combination, it wont boot into the download nor the recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Up to there is what SHOULD have happened AFTER you applied the update. The red text is what gives that away.

What happens if you try the adb method? (adb shell, su, adb reboot download)(not sure if the last command is the right one, but I know there is an adb command to try)
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
When Odin is open and your phone is powered on does odin recognize your device?
[Captivate Android Development] s1l3nt:
flashed 1.2.2a this morning and my phone is working great thanks DG only thing is the ocean waves wallpaper does not work
[Captivate Android Development] itpromike:
Not sure you understand what's going on... I can't get to any apps or anything as it force quits launcher pro then I select close and it pops up with another force quit message... Do I have to wipe and start over? :-( I wonder what went wrong? Perhaps it's because this time instead of restoring all user apps AND system data in Titanium Backup, I just installed all missing apps and app data...?
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
RE

Hope you had a nandroid backup. Sounds to me that you need to flash back to something that works.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Can you connect thru usb to your pc? Open a cmd window and use adb?
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
I would flash back to stock with Odin and try again. Perhaps something was currupted in the process.
[Captivate Android Development] itpromike:
I guess that's the most reasonable. Is there a way when restoring applications from Titanium that you can say install all without having it prompt you with each individual app if it's ok to install? Clicking install and done 175 times isn't exactly an automated restore :-(
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Yes there is. When you open Titanium click press the menu button on the handset (bottom left button) a menu will pop up click on batch. You will have all of the options for backing up all apps + user data.

Did you have a Nandroid Backup?
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
There is the batch restore settings if you recall. They are located in the same place as the backup ones. I hope I understood your question if not then you can shoot me :)
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
you can do batch backup and restores. hit settings, then batch.

might only be in the paid version though..

EDIT: although, i can never get batch restore to work.
[Captivate Android Development] itpromike:
Yeah I have a Nandroid backup... but I'd really like to use this new ROM if possible. I do use the Batch operations in titanium but when you let's say chose to install all apps and data in the batch operation it still asks your permission to install each individual app. :-(
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Speaking of Nandroid and Rom Manager and slightly off topic, sorry for that, has anyone used the extra's that are under install ROM in Clockwork/ ROM Manager?
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
I have never had that happen. When you coose Run the Batch operation it asks permission for every one? I've used this dozens of times and never had that happen. Are you using the donate version?
[Captivate Android Development] Adminkiller:
You need the donate version to have it do it automatically. If you change your ROM frequently, its well worth supporting the app.
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
RE

It never asks me to confirm each install. It just went at it and was done in like 5 mins or so. Ah yes I do have the donate version. So I got more stuff lol
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I think that's only in the paid version, but believe me it's worth it. Also, I think of it this way:

Rom Manager/Clockwork/Nandroid - The same as windows SYSTEM RESTORE.... it will restore EVERYTHING to right when you make the backup.

Titanium is for apps and data.

I use nandroid to go backwards and titanium when going to something new. I run both backups before doing anything (in Titanium paid version, under batch, DO NOT choose all system stuff..... you want all apps (white text), most/alot of the green colored settings, and almost NONE of the red stuff. Most of the red will be changed in an upgrade. You can batch backup all apps, but the system ddata you have to pick and choose.
[Captivate Android Development] uiskibum:
I don't doubt you are doing this the way described, I'm sure your quite frustrated now, so I want you to know I'm not trying to sound patronizing.

It really sounds like you are not holding vol up + vol down all the way when plugging this usb cable in. the bat. and dots are what we get when the phone is off and being charged. But maybe there was some freak occurrence where one of your vol. buttons also broke at the same time you flashed the SRE... who knows.

You should try the play dumb maneuver and take it back. Odds are the person at the store doesn't know what they will be seeing and will just chalk it up to some crazy android oddity.
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Titanium Backup donate and Rom Manager donate wer the first ones I got after rooting and playing with these custom ROMS and hacks. Best money ever spent, both saved my ass quite a few times.
[Captivate Android Development] malfuncion:
Odin doesnt even see it. When my phone is powered on, it just reboot loops through the white/red txt. I watched it do it for 10 minutes earlier.

Yeah when I originally rooted, it worked fine. It was this update to 1.2.2a that got me. ADB doesnt see it as it doesnt even initialize far enough before rebooting. I think theres something wrong with the device as I had to use ADB when I got it (last friday) to even get it into recovery mode to root. I honestly have gave up on it at this point.

Eitherway, I am doing something rather shady. I had the G/F call the retailer we got it at (Sam's Club, subsidiary of Walmart) and play stupid/pity party on them. They said return the device and they will swap it no questions asked (especially since its less than a week old).

FML, but least I get another device without being charged. Let's try this update again in approximately 2.5 hours. This is "lesson learned" on always read the instructions FULLY. FLASH TO STOCK, yeah I missed that step.. fail
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
You got that. They are worth every penny. Someone needs to do a tutorial for the best way to use Titanium I am a bit confused with regards to backing up and then restoring when you flash a new rom. Don't want to break something on the new rom.
[Captivate Android Development] LGSilva:
I have the donate version of Titanium Backup and it asks permission to install every app when I do a batch restore. Im using JH3.

I dont know if its a problem with JH3 but I cant get ADFree to work. It says the file system is read only... Any solutions for this?
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Now this all makes sense. I learned my lesson with that last night. Thank god for Rom Manager, Titanium Back up and Nandroid back up.
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
As I understand it choose Apps and Data only then go through the rest piece by piece so that you don't corrupt anything with the new ROM, like contacts, that's one that is important to me. I agree a tutoial would be great.
[Captivate Android Development] itpromike:
Which lag fix are you guys using? I'm wondering if that's what screwed things up for me.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
If you can get to setting then applications and manage applications..scroll to launcher pro and clear defaults....:)
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Are you guys noticing a big difference between v1.2.1a and 1.2.2a? Is the GPS problem any better? Is it worth all the work to flash back with Odin, to update to this? I'm going to do it now that I have the time to spend playing with the phone.

Quick question. When I use ROM Manager and choose Back Up my current ROM is this the equivelent to running a Nandroid Backup through the Clockwork recovery screen. Using ROM manager option is a lot faster than using Nandroid backup through Clockwork. What's the difference? I want to make sure that I do this correctly to avaiod the desperate cries for help later. Also, I checked the box for advanced users to see what the extras are under Download ROMS and see Superuser 2.1.1 cd cupcake/donut and Superuser2.3.1 ef Eclair/Froyo. Has anyone tried these? I am scared to try them without knowing what they are.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
Did you copy the text file sent from titanium to your sd card?
[Captivate Android Development] Ranatsu:
Which odin thread do you keep referring to? is it this one?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

this doesn't describe how to fix the problem it seems every other poster is talking about.. I can't get into download mode at all.. Odin is open on my computer, and the phone only goes into charging mode when I plug it in.. regardless of what buttons I am holding..
[Captivate Android Development] Kizzmiazz:
Yes it does sometimes. Just keep holding down both volume keys and power button . Let that screen or any screen that comes up come on (still holding all buttons) let it go off (still holding all buttons) it will come back on again (keep holding all buttons) let it go off again (now let go of the power button but keep holding both volume buttons ) now the yellow android dude should be there. All above with odin running and usb plugged in. plug usb in same time you hit all the buttons.
[Captivate Android Development] tiger4j:
You could always try typing reboot download from the terminal that's available for download from the market. Its free and probably the easiest way. Works w/o fail.
[Captivate Android Development] Ranatsu:
This wouldn't work for me as the phone is stuck at the installing files, installation completed reboot, then att world phone screen.. over and over.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
what rom did you put on last?
[Captivate Android Development] kevinmayer86:
I can confirm that the GPS log isn't added in the the 1.2.2 update. I just reflashed JH2 yesterday and after using GPS all day today I'm getting the "low internal memory" error. Worst part is that i can't get SU permission in ADB shell to clear the logs because it keeps FC on me!

edit: after updating to SREv1.2.2a I am able to get SU permission without FC and if anyone else needs to clear the GPS log, you can find it here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7650658&postcount=312
[Captivate Android Development] theprovidence:
Will this work of in already rooted and am using an old lag fix?
[Captivate Android Development] Ranatsu:
I just got my phone yesterday and it had the stock firmware on it. The previous user who was having the problem where it would only boot to the charge sequence or boot over and over saying installing files... That's the same problem I'm having. I have tried every button combination. There is no way this is a fluke, seeing as how someone else was also unable to get into the recovery/download modes.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
Are you sure it was stock? If it is running i9000 the button combination wont work at all. Odin can't see it at all, right?
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Just flash with Odin one click back to stock. Then retry the install. Something must have gotten corrupted in the download or install. If you were running a lagix before installing that could be the problem.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

Odin is your best friend if you are going to try new ROMS and/or Kernals. Get used to Odin, we use it a lot. read the instructions and follow them closely. This will get you out of the loop your in.
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
oh yeah, and I did flash back to stock i897 and then to this ROM - it is great except for this issue - I fixed permissions, cleared the cache for the market - doesn't cache cleaner clear all caches? What other programs must I clear the cache on....Again, this was not a problem until about day 4 or so and I have not removed any files....
[Captivate Android Development] capn1:

Long time reader first time poster, love the way my phone runs with this and the lagfix. Really can't say enough about all the developers involved. I will be making my rounds of all the donate links from you guys you absolutly deserve it. If I can just figuer out what is making my cappy freeze when its overclocked ill donate again :-) KILLER JOB GUYS

Edit: I do believe i have this freezing thing fingered out. Read through some old posts and found i was restoring my apps + Data with titanium wrong. I reflashed stock , reflashed SRE + LagFix and downloaded setCPU again from the market this time and quadrant (would make it freeze all the time before ) and have run 5 quardrants and about the last 5 minuts on stress test with set cpu and no funny stuff. AWSOME............

You can call me Taco......

Samsung Captivate

[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
ok, I re-installed packages after doing a rom manager backup and now it works again - I do not want to use the latest ROM yet as it seems incomplete and if I am reading the posts correctly, there is an i9000 version of this coming out - i9000 is better than the i897. Amazingly, hardly anyone, except for a couple of you, had given me some helpful information and I appreciate it.....
[Captivate Android Development] capn1:
Thanks for the help but those instructions don't tell you where to put the pit file or pda or whatever else you need to do before hitting start. I already have jh3 with sre but I really have no idea how I did the jh3, hours and hours of searching this site i guess. Clicking start did nothing for me. I also found out somehow that I needed framework.net 4 or something.

Yea this is the first time I have modded any phone and as you can tell I am really on top of things haha!
[Captivate Android Development] Ranatsu:
I understand the instructions fully. But the phone won't go into download mode. Before I flashed it I wasn't able to get it into recovery mode either. I had to do the 1 click root, then install quick boot in order to get into recovery mode. The buttons have never worked.
[Captivate Android Development] ComanderTaco:
The easiest way i have found to get my captivate into download mode when its all FUBAR'D is to load up odin, pull the battery sim and sd card. Hold the vol up and down, put battery in and plug usb into the computer. it has worked for me every time if i get the "you are F'ed ( phone ! computer ) screen. do it in that order to, vol keys (hold them the whole time ) battery , and usb , all with odin already loaded.
[Captivate Android Development] Ranatsu:
so new updates.. i left the battery out for about 20 minutes, i haven't had the sim or sd card in it all day..

Held volume up and down. popped in the battery..att world phone screen comes up... and just sits there..

So I pull the battery pop it back in and plug in the usb just to see what it does.. and it brings up the little dial that comes up before the battery pops up and then it freezes..

If I want to update from 1.2 with lagfix to 1.2.2a, is it necessary to remove lagfix before odin one click?
[Captivate Android Development] lost2030:
I have jh3, with sre 1.2.2 (best version), and the lag fix from tayutama ext4. The phone runs great and I love the MobileAP but I am having one issue, very annoying!!

If someone text me it goes through, but sometimes I get their same text multiple times...sometimes 5 times which in turn delays their newer text from coming in. Sometimes their newer text won't come in until I send them a reply. It happens pretty often. I didn't have this issue before. Could SRE be the cause of this?

I had backed up all my text with titanium before flashing to SRE and then I restored them. Could titanium be the cause of this?? Someone help please.

Thanks!

Is anyone having issues with auto brightness after 1.2.2a? For some reason mine is not working now. If I do it manually it works fine, weird...
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
ok i have a quick question for you guys as im pretty new to android but came from hacking other mobile OS's. i was rooted and had the ryanza lag fix both done from the app in the market. had clockwork recovery as well and made a backup of that. i booted into clockwork recovery and chose wipe all user data then i wiped all cache data and now it looks like im completely stock but i still have super user so im still rooted. now i dl'ed this rom to my pc connected the cappy to it and dropped to internal sd but clockwork already has a file there as update.zip so i cant drop this update.zip cause of the same name. so i randomly renamed the rom jsut to vanilla, booted into cw recovery, and selected to choose what update to apply. now vanilla.zip is there, i select it and it says "doing its thing" for about 2 seconds then says finished and brings me back to recovery to reboot. i reboot and its nothing has applied.

so my main ? is how do i apply this rom while keeping clockwork recoverys update.zip incase something happend? isnt that what clockwork is for..i know i could rename the clockworks to update1.zip but then im pretty sure i wont be able to boot into it and would defeat the whole purpose of it.. any help greatly appreciated!

i just flashed to the newest version from stock. on the older version i was able to the Ryanza one click lag fix app for the lag fix. However when i try to do this now i get "you do not have a /system/bin/playlogos1 file!"

Nevermind, im being stupid and i'm tired i just had to read all the options, i restored the playlogos files and then did the lag fix everything is fine now...ha a bit embarassing

disregard my last post...all i did was download the .zip for the full rom with everything didnt rename it to anything just left it how it was on my desktop, dragged it to sd card, opened clockwork recovery to select from list of update.zip's found the sre one and it installed just fine...everything is working and is smooth as butter..

I've got a question ---

I just installed the 1.2.2a SRE - I can open SetCPU and push it to 1.2oc but when I run a quadrant score im getting 979. Very slow. If I open Ryan OneClickLagFix it says the lag fix is unavailable. It says it's disabled because I do not have a /system/bin/playlogos1 file!

Any ideas on why I'm getting such a low quad score? And how to fix this?
