I can't get adb to recognize my captivate on either Windows 7 or linux. I'm running ECLAIR.XWMJ5. adb was previously able to recognize the captivate on windows and linux (using the stock ROM) before I updated to the I9000 ROM.
USB debugging is enabled.
(On linux, I am running the adb server as root).
Thanks.
Did you try these drivers?
I can't post links, but androidforums has a link to the Galaxy S drivers in a post called "Captivate USB Drivers Links Here". You might want to give those a try.
Windows recognizes it, not Linux
Looks like adb recognizes the phone on windows now after installing this driver.
Thanks, but I wonder why Linux won't recognize it anymore.

On, mac, we have an issue. I am a Mac and Windows user. I can't use my mac for flashing. I need windows. Why, because Heimdall is "compatible with mac". Unfortunately, everyone has had issues with Mac Heimdall above 10.6 Snow Leopard. this means that Leopard and under, work just fine.(I believe) I have Lion (10.7) which also is incompatible with Heimdall.
Dual boot with Leopard or Linux or Windows for it to work.
This guide is for windows
Thanks for all your help
Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA App
This guide is outdated now and probably a good example of why you shouldn't hard link to a particular version. The latest version (1.3.0) works fine on all Snow Leopard and Lion versions. The READMEs includes detailed instructions for each platform.

Yes, it's normal.
finish flashing phone in rainbow screen for long time
you need the correct bootloaders. Use the heimdall 1 click collection and find the beta 2d kernel with bootloaders. Flash it through the first page of heimdall. You will be good to go.
hi i'm new at this forum and i would like to run odin to ubuntu 12.04,
i have just used wine and it open the odin window , but does it work ?
Have a look at Heimdall
I wouldn't use Odin neither ina VM nor with Wine. Imho the risk, somethings going wrong is to high (for me).
It's worth to have a look at Heimdall:http://www.xda-developers.com/android/heimdall-suite-brings-linux-and-mac-support-to-over-50-million-handsets/
I've used it once with Kubuntu 11.04 (command line) and it worked verry well.

well you can install odin but there will be a problem of drivers (adb usb drivers)

Ok, I have scoured google, xda, galaxytabhacks... you name it. I have pretty much tried it all. Yes I have tried heimdall, odin in virtualbox, updated ia32-libs, tried adb, tried fastboot... You name it.
I have a Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (Wifi) and I thought it would be a fairly simple thing to root it and put a cyanogenmod Rom on it using a ubuntu 12.04 based OS PC I have. I guess I am wrong. I have figured out the Power On/Down Vol button puts the device in some recovery mode and the Power On/Up Vol puts it in the Download mode, but pretty much once I do either the usb connection to the device appears to be a brick - no matter what method I use.
When I do power up the device normally I do mtp-tools to try to recognize the device but they do fail to connect to it. So it is not a problem with USB at a low level - and honestly this PC has been used for a lot of technical things and it has worked flawlessly in the past. I have found several posts about linux/ubuntu and doing a root, but they seem to not have full answers.
Any help?

Is the cable disconnected when you try it? Also I assume you have a 10.1. You have to be clear on that.

I have tried it cable disconnected, cable connected, cable complete off both pc and device, cable across the room, cable in a coil, cable in a straight line, cable in the left usb port, cable in the right usb port... You name it. So yes I have tried all of the variations. Trust me I have worked on this for 4 nights solid and have read every variations of tab 10.1 and tab 2 10.1 rooting guide and tried it (which many of them lie).
I think my original post said the device is a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, but if it didn't that is the type. Again, I am trying to do this with/on a 64 bit Ubuntu 12.04 laptop. Its actually a Samsung Chronos 7 15.6". I has 3 USB ports and I have tried two of them (my wireless mouse is on one).
1. Put your Tab in download mode, conect it to your PC, run heimdall as root:
Code:
$ sudo heimdall detect
If your device not detected, downgrade heimdall to 1.3.1 .
2. Extract cf-auto-root for your device, flash it:
Code:
$ sudo heimdall flash --recovery recovery.img --cache cache.img

Normaly should
Code:

be the thing, flash the supersu.zip in Recovery and you have been root.
Have you all udev rules? Fastboot and ADB is installed?

Oh and use only heimdall 1.3.1 all higher versions will brick your tab!

heimdall does not detect any device and it was already downgraded to 1.3.1. I have tried to build the 1.4 RC1 but I can't get beyond the lsub1.0.0 32 lib issues. I have also read all the tips on that and none of them seem to work either.
So I assume if I can't detect I can't do (2).
Any??
Any further ideas or help?

I am only using Heimdall 1.3.1
I develop mobile apps and have adb installed and fastboot is installed. I played around with both of them trying to connect and neither would. Did not try as su.
What did you mean by udev rules?
The device is detectable but not connectable when it is operating normally by this laptop using mtp-tools. So I know the USB ports are working. It seems like once I put the device in either recovery or download modes the ports act "dead" like there is nothing on the other end. Do I need to manually mount something?

So does Heimdall use adb to accomplish its tasks under the hood? Is that the rub?
Sure, and fastboot this both are very important. But without the udev rules they are usseles.

Still not connecting. Here are screenshots. I have the udev rules set up, and have rebooted adb does not detect any devices when I have the device in Download mode, nor does Heimdall.
Any more ideas??

I think there must just be some issue with Samsung/Ubuntu 12.04 with the USB devices with this Samsung device. I have done a lot of mobile development on this box, and have not run into issues before, but this one I poked and poked, and never made any traction any way.
Finally I brought up a Windows 8 machine (actually a slightly newer version of the same Samsung model, but a 17" laptop vs 15") and ran Odin and accomplished this rooting/ROM'ing with no issues whatsoever. Amazing. I am a big linux fan, have run into fringe issues like this before, normally after some poking resolved them - this one blows me away.
Thanks for the help!
