It's under wireless and network, then USB settings. Bay_wolf what is this suppose to be set to?
[Captivate Android Development] Aron1980:
I must say I absolutely love this. Thank you so much for taking the time to create a time saving application. I do have one question regarding the restore to stock. I just received a warranty replacement from ATT. Now if I flash back to stock, will it give me the JH7 that came on this phone or back to the JF6 version? I'm just curious because if this replacement screws up, I don't want to be screwed when I send it back to them.
[Captivate Android Development] djb703:
Yeah still dosn't work, have tried all those settings each individually with reboots in between setting them.

Found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11565240#post11565240

and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=789652.

Looks like others have the same problem, and seems to be hardware. Guess i'll try to go to an att warranty center and hope they will replace it with a refurb that usb works.

Really nice program though man, i hope to use it if i get a working phone.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Thanks! And the default from stock should work most times but the best is to set it as mass storage.

It'll flash it to JF6. Sorry. You can always skip that step to flash a custom rom then just use this LINK to flash back to stock instead of ODIN.
[Captivate Android Development] Aron1980:
Well thanks for the quick reply! Maybe I'll give this a day or two to see if it shuts down on me before I begin being a flashaholic again!
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
No problem. I hope you can get to flashing some Roms soon. Haha.
[Captivate Android Development] qynt:
Could also be a defective cable where all the pins don't pass through so it appears as an AC charger. Have you tried a different cable?

In the "Advanced" Menu , being able to install / flash CWM

also Being able to remove the ATT boot logo via http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=849789

that method

and Finally:

For the rogers rom, being able to "master Clear" =)

Just some suggestions. Great tool!
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I'll be sure to try and add those.

PS: I've created a site to help keep stuff up to date. Don't worry as all the threads on XDA will still be updated and maintained as they are still very important. Link in OP.

Coming Soon... Complete Flash to Stock Automation.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Sounds good. Will it work for the 3 button version as well?
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Yep, it'll use that as the primary stock ROM as it doesn't seem to have bad side effects on my phone that doesn't have the 3 button combo disabled.
[Captivate Android Development] djb703:
Don't think its the cable, i have tried many different cables, and many different PC's, it always just charges, no mater the cable or the pc.

A quick question for those of you who this works, do you get the notification prompt even if the drivers aren't installed? Or does the notification bar say that, even if the drivers aren't on, and the phone just doesn't show up on the pc?

I also have a mac which i heard doesn't require drivers to get to work... hence why i really think its a hardware issue.

i haven't tried a different cable other then the original since i got the new drivers, but if your notification pops up without drivers, then there is no point, since i know i have tried multiple cables in the past.

Anyways, gonna try to go to a ATT wireless repair center tomorrow during lunch, if i get a new refurb and usb works i'll defiantly give this app a shot, i'll donate if it works with the new phone, if i even get one.
[Captivate Android Development] dyse101:
Hey guys, relative noob here, having the problem with v2.5. I used your flash utility, clicked "flash to stock", then "3 button fix". Everything went smooth until reboot. I get the Kernel Panic/Upload Mode. I tried pulling the battery and rebooting with no luck. Did this about 5 times. Any suggestions? You think I need to JIG it?

Thanks for your help!
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
If you don't have a jig then you don't need to use it. Just use the 3 button combo to get into download mode. From there, download THIS and try it again but instead of using the Odin that's built into the program use the one you just download. So, download the link above and open it while the phone is connected and in download mode. From there just select the PIT and PDA files included with the program.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Use the one-click, you just won't have the 3 buton fix. I had the same issue. Or bay_wolf suggested using another usb port on your computer or a different cable. Let me know what you do.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Are you replacing 1.81 with the one you linked in your next release? I had the same issue and never got it working correctly.
[Captivate Android Development] dyse101:
3 Button is not getting it into download mode. It just resets the phone, runs the ATT flash screen then right back to Kernel Panic/Upload Mode. It never gets back to download mode.

Looks like I'm going to have to run back to work to get some resistors and solder up a quick JIG...
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I'll be using Heimdall in the next release when I get it out. I've found 1.81 has caused too many issues. And Heimdall can allow me to automate the process. I've already talked to the developer of the program and he said I had permission to use it so I just gotta redo some stuff then I'll release an update.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Thanks. It will be nice to have the 3 button fix.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I posted some screenshots of the upcoming release on the website.
[Captivate Android Development] dyse101:
Finally got it back up and running. Made a JIG at work to get it into download mode. I had to use a different .PIT and .TAR than you provided though.

The thread below is where i got the .PIT and .TAR that ended up working.

What model phone do you have?
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
have you tried from another computer?

in trying to give AIO app a go, i bricked my cap today.

when i installed the drivers on my win7 32bit laptop, some drivers didn't install properly, and that caused a hiccup that bricked my phone. i tried to revive it, but the unbricking method wasn't working either.

so i installed the AIO app in another machine, XP 32bit laptop, and all the drivers installed correctly, and i was able to revive it, and was able to flash to original firmware on my rogers cap.

but i do have another problem though.

i am unable to root the phone using the AIO app. and unable to flash a custom ROM.

so, i rooted the phone with good ol' trusty z4root, and still unable to flash the ROM.

my phone just isn't doing anything.

(sorry for the delay, apparently because this is my first time posting I have to wait 5 minutes between posts)
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
It's a known issue with XP. Sorry, I don't have XP so I can't figure out the bug there. From here on out just reinstall the drivers on your windows 7 machine and it should be good.

That's not the number I was looking for haha. I mean the one that's behind the battery, it should be something like 1012 or 1011 or 1008.
[Captivate Android Development] dyse101:
Haha, go figure... It's 1009 Rev0.4
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Mine is the same and I had the same problem you did.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I'll put that it doesn't seem to work with that model very well on the website. Thanks for letting me know.
[Captivate Android Development] dyse101:
No problem. Everything else worked fine (Root and Flash Custom ROM). Got it loaded with COG 4 now. It seems that we just need a different .pit and .tar for it to flash stock correctly.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Do you have the 3 button fix with the pit and PDA you used?
[Captivate Android Development] dyse101:
To be honest, I don't know. After stock was up and running I immediately flashed to COG 4.

Alright, going to bed now, I'll check back at lunch tomorrow if you have any other questions.

Stupid work...
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
trying again on the win7 machine, after trying to reinstall the drivers.

it's kicking into restoring the stock rom and completes with success!

but, it still won't root...

getting;

E:Error in /sdcard/update.zip

(Status 7)

Installation aborted.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Is the phone in Debugging mode and not mounted to the computer? Also, if you're just going to flash a custom ROM you can skip the root step.
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
yep, debugged and unmounted for sure. checked several times, just in case.

i rooted again, using z4root, but alas, it won't install the rom, BUT, it's possible that i downloaded a corrupted file, since i tried to install it just using clockwork and it won't install either. i'm downloading the rom again and i'll try your app first and report back.
[Captivate Android Development] ippon:
yep...

just my luck, i had to have driver issues AND downloaded a corrupt file.

just installed firefly using your app.
[Captivate Android Development] Aron1980:
Im running on stock JH7 and when I try to load the custom ROM the program locks up. Tried a couple different times. Any thoughts? The rooting process went flawlessly, so I'm not sure why. Debugging was still on as well. Running on Windows 7 64-bit
[Captivate Android Development] qynt:
Since you've tried different cables definitely sounds like a hardware issue. Good luck getting exchanged.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Once you selected your rom wait about a minute and a half before pressing anything again. the program may act like it's not responding But that's fine. The progress bar will eventually fill.
[Captivate Android Development] eyekyu:
got to try you software first hand today, wow it made everything so much easier. even before i had all the apps in one folder but.... man you nailed it on the head.

any possibility to add an "about" to the program so we know which version we have?

[Captivate Android Development] djb703:
Well i got back from ATT and they did give me a new captivate, was very simple, walked in, told them the problem with USB not showing up on notify screen, they asked my phone number, asked to see ID, then said, give us 5 mins, i looked at some blackberry's, work is paying for a new upgrade, got to decide which to get, anyways, went back to the desk, they handed me a new phone (might be referb, they just gave me a phone with plastic all on it).

Now i do get the notify when pluggin in USB!!! and gps seems to be dead on in my one test i did...

Anyways, Tried the app, and not sure if it is working. I put phone in debug mode, and didn't mount it. when i click the check if phone is in debug it says its not. When i click the root button a progress bar goes very fast, but when i look on phone in file browser, there is no update.zip on the root of SD, so i odn't think its working?

Also Odin doesn't seem to see it either when it is in debug mode and i launch it, at least not like it does in the video. So not sure, possibly driver issue this time? even though i installed the drivers that came with the app.
[Captivate Android Development] djb703:
posted to quick

If i launch odin first, then plugin the cable it lights up and says com3, i havn't flashed it with it yet though.

I tried the copy root file button, the progress bar goes, but phone never boots into recovery, and also i checked it didn't copy the file.

When i click check that usb is in debugging mode, it says it isn't.

But the phone says it is.

I may just root it by manually copying the file. Does this sound like a driver issue now that i have a working phone? i got a few more pc's i could try but all happen to be windows7 64bit. Sort of wanted to use the app to enable sideload, the first time i had to edit the db myself, i'm lazy knowing it is possible with a click of a button.

Does the app work jh7? This phone seems to have the first update, my old one was still jf2.

Don't know if I'll come back to this but... I tried using this to flash Cog 4. Was able to Flash to Stock & Root using the toolbox just fine. Nicely automated the process... however flashing the custom ROM didn't work at all. Seemed like maybe it copied the zip to the phone but did nothing past that.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Version 3.0 will be out before long which should fix any of those minor issues. (Key word: Should)

EDIT: Version 3.0 is being uploaded now. Keep an eye out on the website for the download.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Thread title says 3.0 and the first post says 3.5. Which is correct?
[Captivate Android Development] Miami_Son:
Website link for 3.0 still not active.:(
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
It is now! Go check it out.

Don't forget that Flash To Stock will automatically reboot into download and flash stock ROM JF6.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
When does rooting the phone take place?
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I realized you don't need that step for flashing custom ROMs but if you want to root the stock ROM you can go to the advanced menu and click it.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
So all custom ROMS root the phone?
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Pretty much. All that I've ever come across has the phone rooted after install. Basically it's not needed and a few people had issues with it so I moved it to the advance menu for a cleaner interface. If anyone needs to root it is in the advance menu.
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
This works great...until I got official FROYO - hopefully, you can make this work with 2.2 captivates as well as having ODIN restore to 2.2 and not back to jh7. Great app for beginners, as it may have saved me a ton of time back in July:D:)

Thanks B.W.

(N/m on ODIN, I guess, huh?)
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
If you do a MC after flashing back to stock won't this remove the update zip from the SD card and unroot the phone? So if this is the case would I have to root before installing the custom ROM after a MC?
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Yeah, but Official 2.2 is still slower IMO then custom ROMs like Serendipity and there isn't a reason to go to 2.2 because of the recovery mode being hard to use. Flashing to 2.1 is just safer and easier then 2.2 right now. Anyone wanting 2.2 Official can just get it through the official method.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Nope, you don't need to root to use CWM which is what is used to flash custom ROMs. You can do a master clear after flashing to stock no problem (ODIN one click has been removed so master clear has been removed also but you can just format the SD card as it does the same thing).

Basically you don't need to root at all to install a custom ROM, just follow my program down the list and it'll work. Also, if you want to master clear just format your SD card as it is the same.

Hope this helps clear some confusion,

Bay_wolf.
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
Official 2.2 seems really snappy on my phone, and I get better GPS, too, but if I want a cool ROM, then yeah, I will do as you say, until someone fixes CWM for 2.2.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] nissy86:
THe program can't start because MSVCP100.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Oops. How?

EDIT: I'm now reinstalling the driver. Seems to be the problem there...

EDIT: Reinstalled, and still persisting. Please help!

[Captivate Android Development] nissy86:
thanks! it worked like charm.

EDIT: Wow, this is definately one of the best thing in XDA right now. It's too easy to flash now.
[Captivate Android Development] movrshakr:
What means "...2.2...because of the recovery mode being hard to use."
[Captivate Android Development] fldude99:
Excuse my ignorance...but if you don't root before flashing a custom rom, how do you backup/restore apps & data? I assumed one uses titanium for that?
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
No, I meant Android OS 2.2, which is FROYO.

The update zip file, which before I could place in the phone and reinstall in recovery mode does not work with official FROYO for captivate, yet.

Unless you want a phone that is SAMSUNG AOSP (laymen terms - original cappy), just stick with ECLAIR and flash roms using this awesome, and easy, tool). If anyone wants b.w.'s 2.5 version, because of ODIN, then do not use 3.0.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Thanks! I forgot about that. I've added it to the site.

^This is what I meant. And if anyone for some reason has to have ODIN just PM me and I'll send ya a link to 2.5.

If you are on the stock rom unrooted and want to use Titanium backup to backup then just go to the advance menu and press root phone then go to the backup/restore tab.

Thanks again everyone.
[Captivate Android Development] fldude99:
Will it root a stock 2.2 upgraded device, or do we need to use super one click first?
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I'm not sure. If the galaxy S one click root program can root it then this can.

rooting 2.2

I tried this on my freshly upgraded 2.2 phone. I did not work due to the signature error. I was successful with clshortfuse's super one click. There is a fix for the signature problem over in the official 2.2 upgrade thread. I have not applied it.
[Captivate Android Development] G.Hook:
I may have just totally bricked my phone. I was trying this AIO and getting ready to flash to stock. It errored out due to the missing .dll file so I went and downloaded and installed the C++ files. Now my phone only shows a black screen with a white cellphone icon, orange triangle with a ! in it and a computer sign. None of my previous methods are working to get this phone back into download mode. Am I screwed? I do not have a jig. Will I need to make one?

HOLY BALLS!!! I think my heart rate just jumped up 100 more beats per minute, hehe. I thought I fried it. I did the remove battery, open odin3 connect usb cable hold volume up/down power - insert battery and release power button trick again and luckily it worked. WHEW! Scared me for a bit there. Back to stock now, hehe. Need to make sure you tell people about that missing .dll file! :)
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
I have put warnings above the download links saying you need C++ redistributable installed. I posted that this morning. Sorry for your heart attack. Haha.

EDIT: Read everything on the download page before you download it for safety reasons.

EDIT2:

Yeah, won't work for the people who upgraded to 2.2.
[Captivate Android Development] movrshakr:
??

I looked on the first page of this thread, and C++ was not found by the browser page search (Ctrl-f) anywhere.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
It's on his website where the downloads are located.
[Captivate Android Development] G.Hook:
I am probably pretty stupid for trying it again, but I did it again and bricked my phone again. I'm not sure what the deal is, but when I try to launch the flash back to stock it throws me an error that says it can't connect to my device and leaves me stuck in download mode with nothing transferring. The Odin3 One Click works fine though (I have an older model phone). I think my heart rate is finally starting to stabilize :)
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Probably just your phone not going into download quick enough. Just press the flash to stock again if you're already in download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] G.Hook:
Ya I tried, but it wouldn't go. I HAD to pull the battery. I'm not sure what is going on, but I can't get CW to load to the sdcard either. Something is wrong in my connection to the phone. I'm going to reboot the PC and try again. I am working on an XP machine because I have had issues in the past with Win7 64 bit and drivers.
[Captivate Android Development] G.Hook:
Man I have GOT to be doing something wrong, I am just not sure what. I was not having any luck flashing to stock with the AIO so I used Odin 1 click. I have successfully flashed to stock and master cleared. I open up the AIO and click check to make sure USB debugging is ok. Then I click flash custom rom and select my rom (Serendipity with no spaces in the name) and it takes a minute, boots me into recovery and when I click install packages it says "E:Can't open /sdcard/update.zip (No such file or directory) Installation aborted.

So it looks to me like for some reason it is not actually connecting to push the update.zip to my phone. Your previous AIO worked for me just fine. Not sure what I am doing. The E: makes me wonder if for some reason it's looking for a drive letter?
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
XP isn't confirmed to work. I'm adding that onto the site as people have had issues before.
[Captivate Android Development] G.Hook:
I'm starting to think it's a driver issue. I noticed after the factory wipe that I couldn't actually connect to my phone through mounting the SD card either. I think the problem is an issue with the driver on my end.
[Captivate Android Development] bay_wolf:
Okay, did you use the drivers in my program? if not uninstall the ones you have installed and install the ones I have.
[Captivate Android Development] G.Hook:
Yep that is what I am doing now. I think that may have been the issue :)
