So, My captivate is being very stubborn. I put it in download mode after loading ODIN and now it won't flash anything, no progress bar or anything, it just doesn't pass "File Analysis"
Restarted my computer and tried multiple USB ports, all help is welcome

Always open odin first, and I have used Odin before. Just recently has it been acting this way
Phone still booting?
Has this behavior happened at multiple times. Meaning like today, there days ago etc?
What rom are you on

Just started today, I just started using 1.7 after this issue but still no luck.
I have had odin get stuck on factory rfs, someone had it get stuck on sbl .bin earlier. Pull battery let it sit for a while, try again.
Trying another computer if at all possible may be a good idea

That actually worked, except I first tried plugging the phone into another computer while it was in download mode without using ODIN, then I let it sit with the battery out, so I think that did the trick. Thank you ^_^

Hi
I may have bricked my phone.
So I did what everyone did this morning and flashed ep1q via cwm.
I got the boot loop.
Then I tried via odin.
Odin gets stuck at Initialization.. I waited for 30 mins before yanking and trying again.
I have now tried just to get a working phone using PIT file and stock roms.
When I turn on the phone I do not get the samsung splash screen. I get a computer and phone icon with a line connecting them.
Anyone have a suggestion?

mods please move to general...
now did you get it to work with a stock rom?
get your file from another source.
if you are on a desktop try putting the usb in the back of your tower.
make sure you have the correct drivers installed
maybe try a diff usb cable?
just a few ideas. hope it helps

No clarification needed. We have all seen that screen. It means your recovery is broke, you need to ODIN a stock image and start over. Check out the thread entitled "How to Fix Your Phone"
Can someone please help me?
Every time I try to flash a ROM using ODIN, it gets stuck on the movinand.bin.
My phone also says, "RX_TIMEOUT" in red.
I can't get past this. I'm stuck. Can someone please give me some assistance.
Make sure you put the battery back in after you get it in download mode. And use the stock ee4 and the pit file when you flash.

I've done both. I use a PIT file, and a stock EE4 to return the phone back to factory state.
Everything seems to load up fine, then gets stuck on factoryfs.rfs.
Phone again shows RX_TIMEOUT.
Is it possible that it has something to do with running it in bootcamp on a macbook?

Well, it could take 15 mins, but you would see some progress of the green "progress bar" under the top left box. The first steps seem slowest to me.
I just hot home from dinner and this is still the screen I get.
My Odin screen has been like this for the past 2 hours...
Is there any you're of loading bar on your phone? From the looks of it nothing is loading on the Odin screen

No on my phone it is just showing the yellow triangle with the android dude and says Downloading under it...
Try another USB port on you're computer..are you using Front USB port? Also try using Odin 1.82 instead of 1.85

Will it hurt to unplug my phone since the process was started...and yes I was using a front USB port..

It looks like it never actually started to flash anything, so it shouldn't hurt a thing. It's actually incredibly hard to actually brick a Charge, short of flashing a firmware file from a different phone.
I kept the battary in to keep it in recovery mode......Trying Odin 1.82 now...but still looks like it is giving me the same error even in the USB port on the back of my computer...SIGH...
Hmm and u do have the Samsung usb drivers installed correct? Typically you want to use a rear USB port to flash. Honestly if none of the USB Ports are working I would install the usb drivers to another PC install Odin enter download mode and try again...seems like is having problems communicating through your USB port
Sent from my SCH-I510
Yeah...they are installed...It auto installed when I hooked the phone into the computer...
I tried to reinstall and it said they were already installed so I know there are there...
Im seriously afraid to restart this thing in fear it wiped something and is not going to reboot correctly.
I think you will be fine reason being is that your flash never began on the phone. Files should be left untouched. I would close odin, remove battery, place phone back into download mode by plugging in the usb while holding down the volume down button and then put your battery in once download mode is shown restart odin v1.82 try again. You may also try to redownload the ep4d all in one file. File corruption is also a possibility
Got it to finally work...restarted my phone got it back into recovery and eventually worked...thanks for all the patience and help guys...
Awesome glad to hear!
Please help me. My Infuse 4G doesn't boot. All I see was light on the button. This what happened. I want to go back to stock and use [ODIN][UCKE3] Return to stock (Updated 06/08/11) by gtg465x . I right click on Odin and run as Admin. Odin see my phone on a download mode. I select infuse.pit on PIT, PDA in Pda, and Phone in Phone. then click Start. It got stuck at factory.fs (don't remember the name actual name). It stuck there for so long, maybe like an hour. Then I decide to unplug and pull battery out. close the Odin and redo the step again. This time the status bar went half way and then got stuck again. I left it overnight just to see if it's actually finish and it never did. Just stuck there. Turn the phone on and i only see light on the button. Is my phone dead? I can still able to get to download mode but the phone won't boot.
I done return to stock so many times and was successful. This was the first encounter I had where Odin stuck and never complete it flashing.
Try things like reinstalling the drivers, another pc, another usb cable etc.
Thanks. Will try that and also i will try this [ODIN][UCKD5] Odin - Stock (100% or Root+3e) - (Update 06/05/11) since on FAQ #4 seem to be in my case. But if members had other recommendation, please post. thx in advance

Getting stuck on the factory.fs is pretty common here. You might try charging for a bit to see if you can get it to show signs of life. And that link up there^^^(UCKD5 Stock+Root+3e) has worked for me when gtg's didn't. Read the instructions for it carefully as you don't have to check as many boxes. You only need to load the file into the PDA slot. Also if you didn't have the drivers installed your phone wouldn't show up, so that's not your problem (although you could try re-installing them for **** and giggles)...
If THAT doesn't work try Adam's Heimdall one click HERE
If all else fails try a different PC. I had to and it worked like a charm.
Good Luck

Some times just trying a different USB port on the same computer will help to. Not sure why but on my laptop the USB port on the right my Captivate did not like for flashing but the one on the left side always worked right.
Thank you all for helping me out. My infuse is now back in business. I use [ODIN][UCKD5] Odin - Stock (100% or Root+3e) - (Update 06/05/11) but this one got my phone to always boot in recovery mode no matter what i did. So i decide to try Heimdall One-Click Back-To-Stock UCKJ4 + Easy CWM install [2.3.6] (FOR AT&T USERS) and then flash LinuxBozo's Defuse 1.5 kernel. Successfully flash it . However after using Heimdall One-Click, ODIN did not see my phone when it's in download mode. Besides that, everything went well.

I was running stock 2.3.6 and attempted to root it using Odin. During the process, it was stuck on cache.rfs for a long time...I took the battery out and turned on the infuse again. This time it said I needed to do recovery mode. Kies woulnd't recognize the device. So I went back into download mode and tried GTG Ultimate Unbrick. This isn't working because it keeps getting stuck at factoryfs.rfs. It's currently there now, and its been here for at least 15min. I've tried closing Odin, retrying, removing battery and SD and trying but nothing is working! I'm not sure what to do. :/

If you can still get into download mode, you aren't hard bricked. That's a good thing
As for recovering your device. This has happened to me multiple times. There are about a million different things I've tried. 1. Simply use a different USB port, 2. Try a different cable it it's available, 3. Use a different version of ODIN, 4. Try using the heimdal method, 5. Completely uninstall the drivers for the phone and then reinstall them.
Try all of these, not necessarily in that order. I tried last time and it turned out all I needed to do was switch computers for god knows what reason. Good luck!
I'm trying Heimdall right now. Will let you know how it goes..
So as I click flash, it starts...but then it says drivers not found so I click their "Reinstall Drivers" and then after 5min, the installation fails.
I got past the driver error. Now what it tell me is:
Uploading KERNAL
0%
>Then it says
KERNAL upload failed
Ending session...
I have managed to successfully run the Heimdall. But now it turns on and goes into recovery everytime. I wiped data and cache. SOMEONE HELP PLEASE?
I have had a similar experience. My flash would freeze at random points and never complete. This was using my laptop with windows 7. Tried a different computer (same brand, same OS,same USB cable) and it worked fine. This was the case for SOC and ODIN.

I can get it into download mode but the phone still wont turn on. This all happened after i went to mount and storage and started formatting everything like a moron. All i need is to get to cmw and I can get this fixed......
When in download mode, try flashing just a kernel.

Every time odin has stalled on me the problem has always been the USB cable.
I've found shorter cables seem to be more reliable.
