[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamato2:
I rooted my samsung captivate and installed the custom rom ginger clone. It wasn't increadably stable but it was ok. I wanted to try axura because apperantly it was very good, so i tried to use the odin 1-click thing and it seemed to work but then when it booted up it would get to the "AT&T world phone" thing and then it would go to a black screen for about 5 seconds then back to the world phone screen for about 20 min (actually the first time it turned on all the way was in the middle of class and I almost got it taken away) but it would eventually turn on. I have tried to get it into recovery/download mode but it won't work. I would like to know how to get my phone back to normal. Also when I go to update on settings or on kies mini it tells me i can and will let me download should i try this. Also I really don't want to try the usb jig if possible.

Samsung Captivate

Samsung-SGH-I897

Firmware 2.1-update1

baseband I897UCJF6

Kernel Version 2.6.29 jetaek.lee(at)sep-11 #2

Build number ECLAIR

Ok I got the usb jig specificly what odin should i get. I would prefer a link... I don't want to take any chances.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kaik541:
what batch phone do you have? (look under battery on back of phone). Mine is 1006 and I believe any made with 1009 (possibly 1010) or later won't be able to "one-click" back to JF6 and have to go back to JH7 instead. if you have one that can't go back to JF6 and tried to flash JF6, it's my understanding that there isn't a fix without the USB JIG... and having the JIG is always a safe bet/good idea.

also: wrong section, Q&A next time
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GGXtreme:
If your phone is batch 1008 through 1010, Odin one-click will not work properly. Download Odin v1.7 and flash JH3 or later.

I made a USB jig without even cutting any cables. Just some resistors and tape (and a steady hand).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamato2:
What about the samsung update should i do that?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjkoellner:
Not true, I have a 1010 and can one click back to 6 no problem, I just have to make sure I have an update.zip around and the 3 button fix. OP I think your best bet is to take out your battery leave it sit for about 5 minutes, startup one click on your computer, put battery back in phone and hold volume up & down while putting in the usb to your phone. Flash back to stock and profit!

Works for me every time.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjkoellner:
well strike my whole comment, I guess I have a 1011, swore it was a 10!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
Same here...I had a factory new 1009..and had no issues...However...I am wondering if many who are having this using 1008..1009...1010 builds up..are having their problem with factory refurbs..or new phones..? Is Samsung doing something to the refurbs that is causing this issue ?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onelight:
I have two phones from batch 1010...For one of them the 1-click works every time for the other I needed to use a Jig and JH3 + Odin 1.7 to get back in.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
Are they both new factory issues..or is one of them a refurb and is the refurb one the one you can't?

Mac
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onelight:
both factory new and got them both at the same time...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
Whoever said it doesn't work is wrong. It works, but the one-click most people are using disables the button combo on all but early 1008 and older phones. There are flash packages which don't disable the buttons on any phones. If you must flash to stock (because you are selling or returning the phone or if some OTA update you want come out) just try to use the one with the fixed sbl.bin so you don't lose your button combos. If you just want to flash the latest perception or whatever then don't bother flashing to stock.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatttire:
When did we get to v1.7? Haven't been paying attention in a while...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] onelight:
I'm pretty sure it just doesn't work...I tried to install JF6 with Odin 1.7 plus the 3 button fix and even that didn't work...I tried everything. The only ROM that took on my phone was JH3. Nothing else would work period...The jig was also necessary to get back into download mode...I almost got in with another ROM but eventually that also had a kernel panic as well. I probably should have posted a guide to what I did sooner but I didn't understand why my other 1010 phone didn't have this problem...now there is a guide already written to what I did...Although it is stated as using JH2 although I use JH3. I at least posted what I did on the 1-click forum in early december when I encountered this problem. I'm just glad the custom roms install ok over JH3 at least for now.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fatttire:
When you say you can get to download mode no problem, you mean eclair right? Cause it works for everyone in Froyo.

I got 1008 no refurb and its broken in 2.1 without the swapped sbl.bin
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GGXtreme:
Not true. About half of those who try it (including me) absolutely cannot flash anything pre-JH3 without using the special JH2 to JF7 method I linked. It seems odd, because I am on a brand new batch 1010 phone, and my friend who got his phone a bit before me (also batch 1010) has no problems plugging it into my computer and using Odin one-click. It has nothing to do with the button combo problem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opcow:
Interesting. I wonder if you have a checksumed boot loader.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mac11700:
On my 1009 build..I had the 3 button on eclair..and on any rom I flashed..and I had used the JH6 odin to stock with out issue about 12 times..I tried it 1 time with my new 1012 build with out issue..but..I don't want to press my luck any further...I want to find out if doing this is even needed since I have my Nand of the original rooted stock JH7...

I see no need to even do a nand of the original rooted stock rom as what has been suggested just about everywhere as the first thing to be done on a new phone..if this won't allow me to return to stock in the first place..I mean what would be the point of just taking up space on your phone if it doesn't work ? If it doesn't work...then it shouldn't be recommended to do it...If it does work..then it really should be almost mandated as a precautionary

DO THIS FIRST

on every Rom on here for those who have the 1008 builds and up...shouldn't it ? If it does work...it sure will save folks a lot of grief and heads aches...and a lot of extra work...

Should i do the samsung upgrade though?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] derechbennoach:
I have a factory new 1009. I have used I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0 every time. No problem.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jay120171:
Just a question. You need the JIG because you can't get in to Download Mode? Can you get in to Download Mode using ADB shell? I am just not clear why you would need a JIG every time.

I have a 1008 and the one-click by DG removes my 3 button so I always use ODIN and the stock firmware that has the 3-button fix included from this post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=818439&highlight=odin+3-button+fix When I first lost my 3-button/2-button I used ADB to reboot the phone in Download Mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poo22:
Hold just the down volume key and insert the usb cable to get into download mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] avgjoegeek:
That is the normal way to get into dl mode.. if it works.

These phones are notorious for not being able to do that. The battery trick usually works and then a JIG as worst case scenario.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yamato2:
Ok so im getting the usb jig, what should i flash on my phone? I found JH7 but it said that i had to flash JH6 first is that what i have/is it ok to go ahead to flash JH7?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GGXtreme:
I need a JIG because attempting to flash my phone back to JF6 using Odin one-click (or Odin with the 3-button fix) bricks my phone 100% of the time. As in, won't boot, won't charge, won't go into download or recovery mode, not detected by ADB. Using the jig and flashing a later ROM (JH3 or Cognition or something like that) fixes everything. It's just that my batch 1010 phone cannot be flashed back to JF6, it never works.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psufan5:
So even if we get into download mode on 1010, it wont work? How do you flash another image besides the odin one click?

Samsung Captivate Build 1009

I have samsung captivate Build 1009. I want to upgrade by using one click odin3 JIF but scared getting bricked my phone. I know some owner with build 1009 they upgrade their phone with no problem and some encounter a problem loosing 3 button combination etc. Maybe I just wait for a while before I upgrade to froyo.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] sfernandez:
I cannot take ant credit for these. I have found them in different forums and all I am doing is posting them here for you guys to enjoy also.

Disclaimer:I have personally confirmed these work on 2.2.1.But that doesn't mean it will work for you and I am not responsible if you brick or break your phone

Back up your vending.apk from system/app folder BEFORE you try to install this

Market must be already installed and configured(Logged in prior to install)

These are all installed through clockwork in recovery

DO NOT RENAME

1.install zip from SD

2.choose zip from SD

3.scroll down to desired zip and install

4.reboot system

5. enjoy

FOR THOSE HAVING FC ISSUES TRY THIS AFTER INSTALL

1. Make sure Market is closed (task manager or FC)

2. Go to Settings --> Applications --> Manage Applications --> All

3. Select Market

4. Clear data

If it works, good for you, otherwise: Try the Installing again

5. Launch SGS Tools

6. Select Market Fix, check both boxes, apply.

7.) Most important: after reboot, REPEAT STEPS 1-4.

If Market is not showing up.

Install Original from one I posted or back up your vending.apk from system/app folder and replacing it with your original vendng.apk

EDIT: Here is were I found them

here is some more screenshots

Black or White?

Just curious, but are the backgrounds of these markets white like the normal one? or are they indeed black as your pictures show?

If not, is that a theme that would do that?

They are exactly like the picts show.the only white background is the lighter blue one

Cool, trying on Perception 10 in a bit, the dark one will look killer on The Darkness2.5 theme as mentioned above. :cool:

Can't get any of them to work on Perception 10. I tried to install using the .zip file. It places the Vending.apk in the system/app folder, but it doesn't show up in my app drawer. Same results if I extract and place it there by my self.

I would love to have the dark one as well for the Darkness theme on Perception 10

Check the link provided by the OP above to the original posts - there are some troubleshooting steps there and a patch I believe.

I am using the Dark market with the Darkness theme on P10. Just installed it last night. Just moved.it with root explorer to my sd card, went into recovery and chose install zip from sd card and ham it worked fine. I didn't have to look for it or anything. It actually has a different icon for the market on my home page as well.

Market must be already installed and configured(Logged in prior to install). I have no idea why because I am not the creator but I have personally done it this way and have had no issues what so ever installing them through clockwork. I updated the OP with this also.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] fritzgerald:
I'm not sure if anyone else has this issue but I get FC after I install something and then FCs when trying to open the market again. I have to reinstall the stock market and then install the dark market and then it repeats the issue. So I can install one thing, restore stock market, install dark market, install another app and repeat.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] sfernandez:
Have you tried deleting the cache right before or after installing? I havent had any issues
[Captivate Themes and Apps] fritzgerald:
Yeah.

Went to Settings/Apps/Cleared market cache...

Rebooted recovery...

Wiped cache partition...

Flashed dark market...

Rebooted...

Went to settings/apps/cleared market cache...

Used market.

It still installs one app and FCs
[Captivate Themes and Apps] sfernandez:
wow :confused: Maybe try fixing permissions in Rom manager or Recovery and see if that help

I was trying to figure this out awhile ago with the OP from linked thread and it turns out that even though some markets say 2.2.7 in the info for the package it was really 2.2.6 when pulled from phone and opened. I think that 2.2.1 uses a different market then 2.2

You are rebooting after putting the file into /system/app/ dir right?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Aphex13:
I said earlier that I couldn't get any of them to work. I really wanted to use the Black theme, so I reflashed Perception 10, and before restoring any apps or anything else, I tried to install the themed market. Of course I signed into the stock market first like OP stated. Anyway, it worked. I tried to recreate the problem I had installing it before, but I can't seem to now.

I had FCs no matter if I used adb to push the file or if I installed with CWM Recovery. The only way it worked was to use ROM Manager to install it. After that the recovery way worked but adb still gives FCs.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] bames:
don't know how or why its so finicky but finally worked.

tried the process 3 times following directions to a T. Market would still be the stock white market and would force close constantly after applying the CWM flash.

Ran the process through a forth go doing nothing different and walla...black market.

[Vibrant General] lestat210:
I don't know if this has been brought up before (search didn't find anything), so I thought I'd share. Both my son and I have a Vibrant. I have flashed just about everything out there (can't help myself :D), but he has yet to take the plunge. Anyway, I wanted to pull some video he had shot during the New Year's Celebration, and couldn't get his Vibrant to mount. It would do the usual business about asking to mount and all that, but my laptop wouldn't recognize it. It would recognize mine just fine. I asked if he had ever hooked his phone up to his PC, and he said that he had, but hadn't had any luck connecting lately. He also mentioned that he had recently bought a new charger for it. On a hunch, I looked at his charging port, and yep, you guessed it, one of the usb tabs on the phone was all jacked up. (it was pushed all the way to the back of the slot, like there was a bad fit on the new charger??) Anyway, with a little coersion, I put the tab where it was supposed to go, and VOILA!! Connection problem gone! I realize that this will probably only help a few folks, but I figured it can't hurt...And no, I didn't think about getting a pic of it prior to the repair, sorry....Oh and sorry for the long post:rolleyes:
