[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCDillon:
Thanks for all the replies guys, got a good community here. Sadly no suggestions have worked at all.

I downloaded the android SDK and installed all the necessary components, as soon as I hit the right directory (for me C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools>adb reboot download) and I get "error: device not found". So adb seems to be running right and I may just have to get my timing right, but as of trying a good ten times I'm not having any luck.

When booting up my cap while plugged into the computer, the noise that signals a usb connection sounds and when going into device manager and looking at usb connections, its says samsung android device. Seems like I could get into download, but I guess I'll just keep trying to time it exactly right even though Ive hit the command near the connection noise every time.

I'm not losing hope, but I went ahead and ordered the jig off of ebay that mengbo posted, I'm really hoping that the jig could solve my problem for good. From your perspective guys, would the jig DEFINITELY work? Or is it just a kinda one shot, hope for the best thing?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Man.:
The JIG is a pretty sure thing seeing as how you are just in a boot loop.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaze76:
CCDillon, Im in the same boat as you. Same thing happened to me. I have tried a jig and it did not work for me. Hopefully it works for you. I have tried ADB also and it could not find the device. I really hope there is something out there that can help us.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCDillon:
aw man, that's not good at all.. hope you can find a way. Did you make a jig and were you using the same ROM?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaze76:
Hopefully its just mine and the jig works for you. I didnt mean to scare you. I made a jig at first, and it kept booting the phone. Thought I didnt make it correctly so I got one off of ebay, thinking it had to work. That one did the same thing. Thought maybe it was a faulty jig and the guy I got it from ('mengbo' on this forum) sent me another one to see if that was it. The new jig he sent (that worked on his phone) did the same thing. So, something else is going on.

I was going from Phoenix 4.5 to Supernova ROM and it gave me the same error you got. Now it Boots the ATT screen then loops the Phoenix ROM logo over and over. 1 vibrate followed by 2 more
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCDillon:
I'm hoping the JIG works for mine, otherwise I'm not sure what to do. I admit it does scare me a bit to see that you've tried all these different things with no result. I was scanning the precision thread and it seems one of the avid users/posters got caught in a boot loop and it looks like they have gotten out of it, I sent a PM so maybe I can see what that user did, though part of me is thinking that the three button method worked for him but for some reason not for me. This is very frustrating and I'll keep an update on everything, the JIG should be here in about 3 days or so.

Also, you think it may have something to do with how many times our phones have been flashed? Ive looked up to see if flashing is bad for the phones "health" but it seems flashing won't really hurt anything, nor have I really flashed too much. Btw, my phone acts the same you described as well, with the random vibrating and everything.

My mind just seems to be jumping to any random possibility, it just sucks not having a working phone. :mad:

Hope SOMETHING works for you
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Man.:
Seriously - you guys are all worked up over a boot loop. the JIG will put you into dl mode just fine... only time it has high chance of NOT working is if you only see black screen - no power up at all.... you can make a JIG by getting 3 - 100k ohm resistors and a 1k ohm resistor from radio shack for about $1.25... its simple.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortionist:
I removed my 3 button combo accidentally by flashing att 1 click, theres an att 1 click with 3 button fix, flash that when you can get into download mode.

If you can connect with adb use it to go to download, if not, you need a jig... it works, I have been down your path!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] connexion2005:
+1. Learn how to make the JIG you need HERE...

Or buy one from me HERE... < Shameless plug.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jangeles323:
I was in the same situation as you guys after i had a bad flash and the loop on the bootanimation. I bought a jig online and it worked. The trick is to take out your microsd, and simcard and leave out the battery for 15 seconds. Then put back ONLY the battery in, and plug in the jig. It should turn back on and be put into download mode then flash with one click odin.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fractaline:
odin one click WITH 3 button fix....... saftey first.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaze76:
I did all this... I made my own jig, purchased on ebay, got another one from ebay...SAME THING. It trys boot and loops...No download mode. I have done the no sim no micro sd card no batt for 15+ seconds.. same thing. I have tried ADB, I have tried what everyone has suggested. I even asked the guy that I got the jig from to try it on his phone, sure enough it went into Download on his but not mine. My phone must be FUBAR
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mylitoazia:
I see no point with the jig..i flash my phone at least 10x a day and brick 7/10.

My method is easy but it takes patience

1. Hold volume and power button so it goes into bootloop(this is when att logo pops up)

2. when att logo pops up...release power button only..maintain pressing down holding the volume button( volume button should never be let go always press hold)

3. After letting go of power button wait until galaxy logo/ or watever pops up....immediately press home button several time until it lights up and hold down on it

Timing is everything..if done correctly cwm should appear in 3 seconds if it takes longer it should bootloop again that means u fail.. Dont panic just hold power and volume again and follow step 1-3.

Sometimes i get it on first try other times 3 or 4 try.

I never use odin unless i accidently delete my cache. U should alway have a backup restore somewhere and install ur last best functional rom after a bad flash..never odin

To get to download mode go to cwm and select reboot in download....all done with mr shovel

try following that link ^^ goodluck
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] G-Man.:
Some people with certain builds of the captivate do not have the button combination that you are talking about to get into cwm or dl mode.... hence the jig. My build does not have the button combo... I know there is a 3 button fix, but i've never needed it because i have a JIG and it works fine.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaze76:
Dang man, this sucks. I have tried everything, still boots the ATT screen then the Phoenix ROM screen then hangs. Bummer.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCDillon:
Looks like the jig did the trick! It came in just two days (though it felt like forever) so, kudos to skisky1 on ebay.

I thank everyone for the responses and glaze76, really hope you eventually find a way to revive your phone. :/
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaze76:
Glad the JIG worked for you man! sweet! Now if I could get my jig to work HAHA
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abee_13:
Thanks for keeping us updated. Waiting for my jig, hope I come out with the same outcome.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glaze76:
Anyone with any other ideas? You would think that since I boot and the computer knows its plugged it I can do something with it. You would think that ADB would work but it says:

C:\Android\platform-tools/adb reboot download

"daemon not running starting it now on port

daemon started successfully

Error: Device not found."

I hear the ring when I plug it into the computer, but do drives come up. Go into devices and it says its plugged in.

Purchased a Jig and it just boots it. No download mode. etc.

still, if you have time and can come to my place, i will do a quick check for you...

hi guys.. i need some help..

cause i didnt get an answer at Q/A ill give it a try here..

looking for the answer the hole evening, but i dont find it..

you probably can see my problem when looking at the screen..

the background of the icons at my dock is not transparent..

and i dont know how to make them transparent...

tried everything..

googled for it for hours ....
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] dioni12:
try using transparent background icons?
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] FlanFlinger:
It depends on what launcher you are using.

If you are using LauncherPro its in the display->dock settings

If you are using Touchwiz then you will need to change the dock background ping in TWFramework.apk, there's tutorials on here for changing themes in TW

I can't advise on ADW as I've not used it for about a year :o
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] exaptor:
Im using adw ex ...

When I take icons from gingerbread theme they are transparent... But when I take different ones ( I.e. the ones from launcher pro ) they are not transparent
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] gomek111222:
Download gimp from internet. Open your icons with gimp then select transparency on the right top in the layer toolbox. Save your image. Your icons done transparent:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] FlanFlinger:
^ This ^

You'll probably find the icons you are using don't have transparency set in them, you'll ned to edit the .png files
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] exaptor:
I already tried with transparent mode at my draw program.. Using mac, I don't have photo shop or sth like that... Guesd it's called " don't show background " ... But it just affect the drawing program and not the png file ...
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] exaptor:
Ah. I just saw, gimp is also available for mac, il give it a try tomorrow,

Thanks
[Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps] exaptor:
I tried the launcher pro icon pack app .... Still not working, and those icons should be transparent, shouldn't they?

[Optimus One, P500, V General] Devil_Dude:
I tried the free gun bros game from market but when i try to play the game restarts!!!:confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Zerobarat1:
Lol this is the exact same thread I wanted to make :) . I have the same issue . Even though Gun Bros in on the first on the market for my phone it does not work .

When I choose to enter in the first mission the image flickers and bam . I can press home and force close manually the app afterwards.

But this was on LOL 1.2 , not sure if the more stable void echo might help . I shall try this app later , in about 2-3 hours and tell you if it works on void.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] robsbeat1:
Doesn't work on void delta eighter! Maybe the phone's specs are too low, dunno!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Joel Chan:
Same here! I reinstalled a few times. Doesn't work.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Zerobarat1:
All apps in market that show for P500 should work for P500 .... FFS . I mean there's some high end games that just don't show for P500 .

Even so I don't think Gun bro's requires higher specs than that monster of a game Dungeon defenders which works decently on my phone with CPU oc'ed to 800 mhz . Even though in battles it's still pretty much unplayable :D

:confused:

if its not supported via pc than how can it comes in mobile.

google gota fix dis thing!
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Zerobarat1:
Yeah we should leave some comments on this game especially since it is actually on the first page on the market.

They either bring a versionm that actually works with ArmV6 ( which this is what I suspect the problem to be , no support for V6 ) or they simply remove the game for Optimus on market.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Zerobarat1:

Thanks in advance for any response!

The followings are my phone's symthoms:

1. My phone WAS FANTASTIC until I updated new Darky extreme version 9.2 (upgrade from 9.0)

2. I degraded it to the stock rom with Ryan's OLFG -> Working very well...

3. Until the phone was restarted. The phone was still working however

4. IT BECAME FREEZING. I couldnt scroll, couldnt touch the screen, or the phone response was like 5 mins later for each touch.

5. I followed instructions on the internet to flash with stock rom (JM8) and upgraded it to JPO, and the result is

6. THE PHONE COULDNT BE BOOTED at the Galaxy logo.

7. I tried to flash the phone over and over with different stock roms using ODIN 1.3 (with well understanding about repartition and PIT)

8. NOW, my phone is still able to access the download mode, but my PC CANNT SEE THE PHONE DRIVER ANYMORE(tested on 3 other laptops with the same result)

9. Reinstall USB drivers like 20 times, the results have been the same.

TO me this should be a phone death. Im gonna purchase the new Galaxy S 2

HOWEVER, If there is anyway to revive my phone back to normal (Cuz I wanna get some important data in the internal card), I will not only send a big gratitude but some DONATE as well.

Thanks.

Thats generally a USB /driver/windows problem .
