Stupid question.... make that 2.....

Master clear never works right for me. Neither does browsing via usb in windows.... only thing i can do with my data cables that works is d/l mode.... odin works fine.... i know it must be a driver issue... which is probably why master clear doesn't work. I installed the usb windows drivers package from one of the threads here and thats what i've been using. Suggestions?

And the REALLY stupid question.... does factory reset on the phone wipe my sim card, or will my address' still be there?

Thanks and sorry for my foolishness.... wanna get this process right this time..... =)

Odin 1 click, Odin with JH7 and .pit file, then SRE 1.3.1a
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
Yeah seems this is only working for DG.
[Captivate Android Development] alterbridge86:
Thanks for the great work DG - as others have said, this is far and away the best script for the Captivate.

That said however, I flashed to stock JF6, then updated to JH7 and applied SRE 1.3.1 and am having the same problem as a few others...no sl4a, sideloading, titanium, rom manager, etc. I also tried reflashing the stock rom and running it again but still am not having any success. Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Captivate Android Development] warri:
Where did you get the pit file all I have is the tar (home brew)
[Captivate Android Development] dontshakepandas:
Used one from a previous download, not sure which one.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
what pit did you use for jh7? i never use 1, just the tar..... i only have 1 pit, from jf6, i think....
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Ya, JH7 is working for me now... lol...

I am not sure what is going on...
[Captivate Android Development] aceman0455:
Just a thought. try downloading rom mgr and tibu from the market and then reboot SL4A shows up for me after that.
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-i897.htm

Look under Flash Tools below the firmware. its there.
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
What is your exact steps in flashing for jh7 to work?
[Captivate Android Development] xatrekak:
what does the pit file ever do, i had 1.3d and all other versions working fine w/o the pit file
[Captivate Android Development] darkamikaze:
lol mmm maybe the last time you just flashed the wrong file or something D: .. mmmm lol at least you're having a blast right?!
[Captivate Android Development] fivebraids:
Slight derail...

Am I to understand that you can use ROM Mgr to restore a phone to complete stock? ? ?

I have a thread going where my USB stopped working. I need to be able to get the phone back to stock to exchange it.

Since I can't get USB to connect to use ODIN, would ROM Mgr help if I had someone give me the clockworkmod backup directory files for a stock phone??
[Captivate Android Development] magnumrt562:
"Slight derail"

:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
OK did a master clear with odin 1 click. Then flashed jh3 with odin then sre 1.3.1a and its all there titb sl4a rom manager and they all run.

Ok whats the best way to see if sideloading is working?
[Captivate Android Development] ferris2375:
Ahh screw it. Updated to 1.3.1a using JH3, no problems here so far. Everything is installed correctly and so far running great.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Have you tried "factory reset" under SETTINGS>PRIVACY ?

I think that'll do it for you.
[Captivate Android Development] IllegalOpcode:
Well I got JH7 working with 1.3.1a.

in recovery I cleared user data and cache now it works.

what is weird I did a master wipe and that did not help go figure.
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
You cleared the user data and cache after you had 1.3.1a on?
[Captivate Android Development] xatrekak:
no i dont think so i just tired that everything is force closing now lol, reflash HO!
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:
Frustrating

This is the second time this package has bricked my phone, the first time it was a complete brick. Now I am able to unbrick my phone.... but this is not working for my captivate...

Both times it was done with stock firmware and no rooting!

Can someone please advise
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Define "bricked"
[Captivate Android Development] vinunleaded182:
Id like to thank the OP and everyone here who keep testing and fixing the bugs for newbies like me who dont have the time to keep reflashing. Will donate a few more bucks when I get home
[Captivate Android Development] omriasta:
Pulling the other versions

Please don't say you are pulling the other versions (the ones that keep At&t apps)!

Still haven't found a way to restore the BuddiesNow app it just keeps failing to install.
[Captivate Android Development] androidftwin:
Quick question. I'm on jh7 with sre1.3 which is running smooth since its not overclocked. In the market I can't find historyeraser. Why is this? How do I fix
[Captivate Android Development] Reefermattness:
If you recovered it then it obviously wasnt a "brick". Just because the OS file system fails to boot doesnt mean its a "brick". There is a sticky for odin one click in the list of development threads. That is the thread for recovery issues and it would be your best bet for a fix.
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:
The first time it did a infinate loop of going to the ATT screen and going to installing software now, then it eventually just would hault at the ATT screen and start getting extremely hot, and non of the button combos would work, as well as when it got plugged into the USB it wouldnt even show the battery charging logo.

With the one I got today, I put the package on the internal SD card, rebooted....

Did the button combo which worked but is really weird combo that no-one has...

Did the update option, it exited out and when to Installing Software, and then just kept rebooting and would not stop. I was able to get it into download mode and I am now using ODIN to do a master clear but it looks like it is just hanging for the last 10 minutes. I dont want to cancel and restart it and completely trash my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] mxk271:
Can someone tell me how to get to jh7? I have the odin3_v1.0 and the i897UCJF7.tar. I'm currently on jf6. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this... but I can't find instructions anywhere... Can someone please let me know where to place the .tar file on odin and other things I might need to do on odin to get it right?

Thanks I just can't get sre to work when I flash jh7 the way I'm doing it...
[Captivate Android Development] magnumrt562:
so, got jh7 to work with 1.3.1a... after flashing jh7, install rom manager and titanium backup from the market, THEN reboot to recovery, reinstall packages and sl4a shows up and lagfix works...
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
OK, just noticed something, JH7 does NOT remove any cache during or after install in recovery on JH3 does.

You need to manually run both options in recovery, cache and user cache, then install SRE
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
DO AT YOUR OW RISK!!!

and BTW, there are threads that tell you how to use odin, but i'll tell you here.... but next time, i bet they flame ya for asking in the wrong place =)

open odin 3.1

click PDA

browse to the jh7 tar

connect to phone in D/L mode

when you see it's added, click start

wait til its done then close odin

Voltage scaling from 600mV-1050mV - 1/3 the power usage while idle over stock!

No freakin way!! How did you get that to work? On unhelpful's thread 1.2oc and 1.25v is what i've seen. That freakin ridiculous gears!!! I'm really impressed so let me get this straight. With your update.zip is this all ON default and would i be sporting the 600mV-1050mV while at 1.2ghz right out the box with no configuration.

Troubleshooting in OP

Ok, there is a new troubleshooting section in the OP, it will get your up and running on any firmware, I think.
[Captivate Android Development] mxk271:
Thank you so much!! Are there any .pit or something like that you have to add for the jh7? That is what was confusing me because I'm reading people talk about .pit and repartition and what not...
[Captivate Android Development] roadrash7:
Sorry if this has already been.is mobile ap not working for anyone else after jh7 and sre
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
mobile ap works fine
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Some use the pit as well, some dont.... i never have and havent had any probs.... and i never choose repartition either.... just my experience.....
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
I reflashed with clearing the userdata and cache, and all is good. Thanks much!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] roadrash7:
What about auto killer that doesn't seen to be working right, anyone using that and having problems. Also when i install the latest sre is it alright to overwrite the old one and just reinstall packages, or do I have to flash back to stock or anything
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
Well sl4a is fc on me. Though is shows up it won't install either lag fix. So its broke for installing but does show up. Do I need to download 1.3.1e or something to see if that fixes it?
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:

I have the software ending in 6
[Captivate Android Development] glio1337:
The OP clearly states you must start from a fresh stock flash to upgrade SRE.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Again I feel stupid, but where am i missing the options to clear my caches? 1click to jf6 has nothing but start and master clear and odin 3.1 doesn't have those options either.... I know it's something stupid i'm missing.... =)
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
did not work for me? :(
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
You can cancel your "Master Clear", and just reflash to stock. Prior to doing that, you may want to boot into recovery and clear stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
That same thing happened to me, I grabbed the zip for SL4A from the OP, uninstalled it, deleted the folder on my SDCard, and re-installed, works fine.
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
Boot into recovery, the options are there.
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:
I dont mean to sound stupid as i am new to android but where can i get all the stuff to flash it back to stock
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
Man I've been at this all day and still cant get JH7 to work with 1.3.1a. I've deleted user and data cache and nothing!!!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] roadrash7:
Oh yeah thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
People keep saying in the op for the download can't find it in the op. Can you please link it for us
[Captivate Android Development] Kizzmiazz:
K no matter how I install su is only extra I get. Flashed to stock with odin, flashed jh3 with odin then sre , no lag fix nota just su. Rebooted still nota. Tried again master clear and reg still same. All works fine and I can install lag fix manually but su only comes up in apps notin else.
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
Me too!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] warri:
Flashing 1.3.1a, I edited the freq_volt_table in the int.d script (wasnt actually that hard, im actually kicking myself that it took me this long to figure it out.. heh)

I'm to Odin1click Master Clear, Then clear cache/data, then JH7 then SRE 1.3.1a(modified)

will report back with results ;)
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
thanks much.... like i said, knew it was simple!! =)

For future reference, in the OP, the list of what is included is linked.... ;)
[Captivate Android Development] xatrekak:
WAIT!!!!!

you need to do the Odin1click Master Clear, Then clear cache/data AFTER JH7, because after it installs it doesnt format/clear anything and is causing problems
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Found the issue with some people not getting apps... yet another race condition... 1.3.1b coming soon
[Captivate Android Development] Corriewf:
Does clearing user data delete everything off of the internal sd card.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
read the bold, that is the key :D

no

Thank god, I was driving myself nuts reflashing, etc. thinking I was doing something wrong. :P
[Captivate Android Development] kakwvu:
Still no dice. Ugh. Reflashing JF6.
[Captivate Android Development] warri:
Okay...My MasterClear is taking some time to finish, so my order is now

MasterClear->JF6->JH7->Clear Cache/Data->SRE1.3.1a(Modified)->tibu->Cake

well actually i guess i'll wait for 1.3.1b ;)
[Captivate Android Development] doggydog69:
1.3.1b!!! hopefully there isnt yet another unforeseen problem. good work DG
[Captivate Android Development] Corriewf:
When you delete user data is that deleting the internal sd card where the titanium back up would be?
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
lol sorry was looking for something named sl4a temp brain fart did see that but didn't register.

Been wiping this phone to fresh and getting back up to where I want it without issues and then going to nadroid it so all is good
[Captivate Android Development] xatrekak:
except dg announced 1.3.1b is on the way so i would wait for that
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
yeah I tried every way described in this thread and nothing works. after about 8 flashes im going back to stock and waiting on a new version.
[Captivate Android Development] ferris2375:
I knew a b would be coming soon, should of waited. lol

Oh well, if I have no problems with apps do I really need a B?

All that using MasterClear accomplished was freezing my phone. What is the difference from reflashing JF6 and using MasterClear?
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:
I already tried that and clicked start and all it does is sit there and say file analysis... thats it it does nothing
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
1.3.1b is LIVE
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
I believe you need to have USB in debugging mode to do master reset - please correct me if I'm wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] xatrekak:
after master clear the galaxy s screen can take a while be patience with it. flashing JH6 puts you at stock, however it also leaves some residual files from things that you have done but are not associated with things that stock cares about, typically things requiring root. master clear get rid of all these residuals files and ensures a 100% clear flash
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
1. On the phone, do you have the yellow triangle/Downloading message?

2. Don't click "Master Clear"< click "Start"
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
That is true
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Alive and working? :) Do we still need to visit the troubleshooting section, clear data/cache before applying?
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
Are you just tinkering with the int.dscript to see what all you can do, hopefully something stable.

So is this 1.2 ghz with the uv you mention come default with int.dscript with the SRE???
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
I love the Change Log DG. good stuff!
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
1.3.1b doesnt work either!!!!!!!! Only SU?? I give up!! :(
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:
I got it into the download mode but when i click start it says failed
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
Master clear with odin 1 click is done with the phone in download mode but from the home screen where your apps and stuff are and not the yellow droid guy screen.

This baffled me all morning. Put the phone in download mode through settings but don't reboot to download mode. Just fire up odin 1 click then plug the cable in let odin register a com port then hit master clear and watch the green bar progress on odin
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
Did you clear cache and user data before installing SRE?
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
your kidding me. im staying on jh7 until this is actually confirmed working 100%. did you clear cache and user data in recovery mode before you applied sre 1.3.1b?
[Captivate Android Development] whitenerj:
yes I did!!!
[Captivate Android Development] warri:
yes the default SRE comes with 1.2GHz @ 1.05V

I'm just tinkering to see if i can get values to stick on boot/what values i can get to be stable
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
In Odin, do you see a successful COM port connection?
[Captivate Android Development] doggydog69:
if it is plugged into a usb port on the front of your comp try plugging it into a port in the back
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:
Yes, and then i click start with it in the download mode with the BIG yellow triangle and it says failed
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Try another USB port on your PC
[Captivate Android Development] conquercomputers:
It all gives the same error no matter which port i use
[Captivate Android Development] xatrekak:
same boat with JH7 here is my steps cause i didnt want any room for error but still didnt work (MC = master cealr, CDB = clear data base and cashe)

MC> flash JF6 with odin one click > MC & CDB > flash JH7 with odin 3 > MC & CDB > SRE

i even threw in an extra reboot between each step and it still did not work
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
i'm suprized 1.05v is stable because on unhelpful's thread i see it as 1.25v and even then its not all stable. Who knows i'm sure there is a million variables.

wow though that like a 25% decrease right there from the 1.3 stock...man that's sweet!!!
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
Try uninstalling the Samsung drivers, download the drivers from the One click odin page, and reinstall - happened to me once before..
[Captivate Android Development] xatrekak:
make sure you have odin BEFORE you put it into download mode or else it hangs at the file thingy
[Captivate Android Development] warri:

cleared all user data

reinstalled all packages

Worked perfect two times in a row...

Flashed JF6 One Click Install

Flashed JH7 (No repartition)

Master Clean

Copied update.zip to internal SD card

Rebooted into recovery

Clear cache & user data

Reinstall Packages & rebooted

Only SU showed up in applications

Rebooted into recovery a second time

Clear cache & user data again

Reinstall Packages & rebooted a second time and everything was there.

Applied lag fix

I'm happy!
