Does anybody have the Original Sprint Boot/start up files?
If someone could help I would appreciate it.
we know where the files r but as far as i know we cant edit them (like the moment). the only thing i have been able 2 change is the boot up sound

I don't want to change them, I just want the original boot up/start up. I tried a rom and then went back to stock and my start up is not original.
ooo ok... what rom and what exactly is not original ?

I tried Syndicate, which I liked but I'am a fan of the stock feel.
Epic Experience wouldn't install
Installed Asop
Then I went to my backup I made of My stock Rom just to see if everything works right.
What is not original is when you boot into your phone/power on you see the sprint logo and S galaxy logo. Well and image of a flashing Android Banner keeps flashing/popping up on the intros, but not on outro/shuntdown.
hmmm have u checked for a bootanimation.zip? thats kinda what it sounds like b/c i heard that were able 2 use a bootanimation.zip but something has 2 be changed in (i think) the init.rc file.... worse case scenario just flash back 2 stock
No I haven't, where can i get the zip from?
i mean from installing one of the roms it might have installed a bootanimation.zip (im not 100%)
So what do I have to do?
I would try flashing with odin 2 fully stock and that should bring everything back

What type of backup did you make? The nandroid backup from Clockwork Recovery does not backup the kernel.
You may need to install the stock kernel.
IMHO, the best thing is probably to flash the stock image using odiin & then root / install Clockwork Recovery (or whatever you used for backup) so you can restore your data.
You can then be sure you are starting from original stock ROM & kernel.

what is odin, and how do I do this

You need to follow the instructions for How To Return To stock at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=773032
You probably then want root & install CWM by following the
Epic 4G All in One Root and Recovery instructions at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808103

Looking for the stock AT&T update.zip file. I did search, but now luck. Thanks.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
I just need the update.zip file. Thanks anyway.
No problem. That was the closest thing I could find. Best of luck with whatever you are doing.
Are you talking about the update.zip file to root your device? I have that.
No, the stock update.zip file. I am running stock and tried to run the restore and it said the file is missing. I was going to put it back on and try and run it again. I've been having trouble powering on. I can only power on if I have it plugged up.
AT&T is sending me a new phone, but I just wanted to try and restore it for giggles and also to make sure my data is gone.
??
there isnt a stock update.zip........
The phone says that update.zip cannot be found on the sd card when I try to restore. I'm running stock on it. It may be that its just fried. Once it boots up it seems to run ok. I just got the new one from AT&T and going to send the old one in in the morn. Just wanted to try one last fix because everything worked great the past few days, even the gps was working better. I guess I will see how the new one does.

i dont think anyone here has any idea what you are talking about.
the stock phone doesnt have an update.zip on it. reinstall packages in system recovery doesnt mean it reinstalls stuff you removed from the OS. it allows you to flash zip files created for things like clockwork mod recovery and rooting on the 2.1....

There is no update.zip for stock firmware. Reinstall package in recovery mode is for flashing ROM updates and other stuff. If you delete something from stock ROM or messed up, there is no way to get it back or restore other than flash the stock ROM via ODIN3 and load stock firmware file.

I think you're confused with the JH7 update.zip that DG releases. It is not a recovery package zip OP like to have. You have to install CWM in order to flash this zip file.
What the OP doesn't exist. For the Captivate there are two options unless a developer creates another one:
1)Odin One click to I897UCJF6
2)ZIP of th I897UCJH7 firmware

I would advise you use the ODIN 1 Click to resolve any issue your having. I made a video on how to do this in my video archive thread...

i am curious if there is a way to make a tar file of the stock ROM that we might be able to flash thru Odin if things go wrong? this is what i always did on the Epc 4G. so far CWM seems to be having problems with the sdcard... i have made nandroid backups, but out of curiosity i went to 'restore' and it said it couldn't mount the sd. maybe this will get fixed soon tho.

FIXED- I found the stock ODIN Rogers file rooted and that got me going.
The unbrick ROM does NOT work for ROGERS phones.
Hello Everyone,
Problem: Infuse will boot up and you see the ATT screen then 2 seconds later it sits on the SAMSUNG screen.
I have tried just about everything posted. I even tried the Infuse unbrick Odin pkg.
I CAN get into download mode. I can flash with ODIN. But upon reboot the phone goes back to the SAMSUNG screen.
How did I get here?
I had was running ZEUS. I had the issue with ppl not hearing me unless I turned speakerphone on and off for every call. I did a master reset. I had an issue with something else so I tried using a CWM flashable file which caused the problems needing the master reset.
I have tried many things but I am stuck.
I am trying to get an ODIN kernel that is moded like the V8 community kernel BUT all the links are broken.

Seems obvious to a rookie like me, but shouldn't you just use GTG's ultimate unbrick back to D5 stock and go from there?

I think I can get it working again with a kernel that will convert to ext4.
I can not get into the phone to delete or change the voodoo lagfix.
It seems that the boot partition is not working right.
I can flash with ODIN the unbrick file and it will install but upon reboot still stuck at samsung screen. I can NOT get into recovery either.
WTF? Did I make a brick?
Someone has to know how to fix this

Dude.. if you can't figure this out with those links that I posted, then I don't think that I can help you.. I can somehow manage to odin myself and bring myself back to a rom with those files and the respective rom. And I know that there are other people that can too... good luck bro.. I'm done..
Edit: May I suggest this?
Edit 2: Actually, if you need the 3e recovery file. I just remembered that you need that too. Haven't seen a mirror posted for that. Maybe that is the element that you are missing? If it is lemme know..
It is really quite on xda today
Flash any GB kernel that's rooted, but uncheck reboot.
Then try to boot to recovery.

I am well aware of using this stuff. I flashed many phones and tablets hence why I like Samsung.
Yes, can you provide me the 3e Recovery ODIN file.
That would be a good thing to try.

I can only use ODIN files because I can ONLY get into download mode. I can NOT get into recovery to use any CWM files.
I have been trying to find ODIN kernel files but the ones available the download links are broken and I pm'd the OP as well as others that need the files but still no luck yet.
Can someone please post an ODIN kernel for me to try.
Edit:
Just to be clear I have now flashed the Unbrick ROM several times. It will load up and install. I get a green pass in ODIN but on reboot I see the ATT screen then stuck at the Samsung screen.
I have started to flash odin kernels from my captivate and tablet. They do get past the ATT screen and no Samsung screen but all I see is grainy stuff all over SO that tells me that changes are being made. I just need to try with an INFUSE ODIN kernel that might convert to ext4. I think that will solve the problem.
btw- thanks for the help...I am just ticked trying to get my phone to work.
I just need one damn file or small command to wipe the phone so it will take the stuff we are trying to push.
FIXED- I found the stock ODIN Rogers file rooted and that got me going.
The unbrick ROM does NOT work for ROGERS phones.
I went through the same thing about a month ago on mine... I eventually found the same file you did... it was a pain and since then if I've bricked I've flashed ultimate unbrick then flashed stock Rogers and it resolves my issue... I keep both saved on my computer now

Simple Fix...
Use. GTG's ultimate unbrick.

Follow the easy steps.
This will bring to how you bought the phone.
SECOND to all with BLACK screens.
Turn off the phone using power and volume up and down.
While plugging in the phone to the USB. Release power button.
This may take multiple tried, but you will get the download screen eventually.
Its all about timing.
YOUR PHONE CAN NOT BE BRICKED.
The down loader is not on the internal memory,
it is on a FLASH ROM separate from everything else.

People need to remember that not everyone is using AT&T Infuse, gotta clarify that before posting guides.
And yeah keep the stock rogers rooted rom on your desktop, comes in handy for a quick return to stock if anything goes wrong.

Hi all, let me see, my friend own a galaxy s i9003l, he asked me to root it. I was like ok np ill do it everything went fine no problems, then all hell brake loose, he, out of i dont know why, erased default launcher , and stayed with holo launcher, then he read about custom roms tryed to flash one of them, dunno wich one,and failed in the process, making the phone bootlooping, i have managed to install cwm, but since he didnt tell me about that erase thing, i made a factory reset, bottom line is that we have no launcher at all and for some reason neither odin, cwm or kies is.able to flash anything to it, now it actually boot but we have no way to use it .Then i was reading about making a flashable.zip launcher but i.have no idea how to make something like that, and was wondering about if someone would be kind enought of making it for us, i know it is a lot for me to ask, but it is the only way i can figure it out
