Ok so I'm not sure what happened here, but my laptop wont recognize my phone. I have windows 7 and the phone is currently running octane. I originally had used odin to set the phone up with the proper boot loaders a while back then used cwm to flash ravers octane. I wanted to go back to stock using the official kj6 that raver posted through odin. When ever i hook the phone in to the laptop it says usb device not recognized. Any ideas or ways to fix this? I tried uninstalling and installing the sgs4g drivers again with no luck.
shut off..when u go into dl mode Odin should get it..don't worry about it while it's on...I did that for an hour last week...with octane

Download and install Kies Mini
So I just went ahead and downloaded the cwm ver that raver posted. moved it to root folder of sd card and flashed that copy instead. Even now that i'm stock the laptop won't recognize my phone so weird. Any other ideas?

If it recognized it before, make sure you're plugging it back into the same USB port you previously used. Also make sure the drivers are installed. If they're acting buggy, uninstall them and reinstall them. Downloading and installing Kies Mini (link provided by FB) would insure you get the right drivers installed.
Every time you flash a new Rom, it will probably do that. It depends on your computer. Once you uninstall the drivers, try to run ccleaner from piriform to clean out the registry. Reboot the computer. Then reinstall the drivers using the files from the Bible.

Yeah I tried UN and reinstalling the drivers I had gotten them from the Bible. I will try ccleaner and see what happens. Also I tried all USB Ports. Thanx for all your ideas I will post if ccleaner works or not

Plug your phone into your computer. Then go into your control panel and under Admin tools open computer managment. click on the device manager extension and find the device/s with the yellow exclamation point. right click and select uninstall. then unplug your phone and install the drivers from the SGS4G Bible and then plug your phone back in and it should work.
I forgot to mention my wife has this phone to stock never touched and my laptop registers gets just fine. When I plug mine in it says
USB device not recognized. And under some other options it says windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. I will try these suggestions though

Short of a factory data reset (which you'll want to do before sending it in for repair, anyway), I don't know. It's weird that it worked until you flashed a ROM.

So I bought a Captivate off of craigslist. first mistake, i know. but i inspected the phone meticulously and everything had checked out. That is...
Until I got home. I had seen that CM7 nightlies were posted and I use them on my Inspire so i didn't waste anytime rooting and installing CWM. I then downloaded 2 ROMs, one normal 2.2 ROM and CM nightly build 13. I read about cm7 and how it replaces the EFS file system, so the only way to change ROMs is to odin back to stock.
Here's the funny part. Everything I did up up to and including installing CM7 I did WITHOUT using a computer/USB whatsoever. So I install samsung USB drivers on my 2 PC's (win7 and xp) and I go to connect my phone in download mode. no dice. everytime i plug it in, both of my PCs say the dreaded "usb device has malfunctioned"
2 additional details to note:
1. my friend picked up a stock 2.2 captivate at best buy tonight and i threw it in download mode on the same usb port and it connected fine and installed drivers, + odin saw the device. mine still says malfunctioned.
2. I know USB connectivity works because if i go to the CWM recovery I can mount USB storage.
SO what are everyone's thoughts? did i not read a special instruction? am I missing something really stupid? or am i stuck on CM7 nightly builds for the rest of forever? haha.
Edit: found this in the cm7 nightly post:
**Warning : Not for new users, flash this build only if you know what you are doing !!! Make SURE you can get into Download mode using only buttons (no other method, Download mode from just buttons is essential).**
I didn't read that^ whoops. I cannot get into DL mode using only buttons...does that mean i am stuck on CM7?

His main problem is odin wont reconize his phone once it is in download mode. Three button fix is secondary mainly because you need odin to flash it.

Correct me if im wrong but cm7 flash requires nexus s usb drivers(or did at one point). Your friends new phone would be detected with the captivate drivers while yours would not.
If you just have the wrong drivers installed you can get the right ones from the android sdk. Uninstall current usb drivers.. reboot... install nexus s usb drivers.. reboot... plug in phone.

I Downloaded and installed your rom from HERE using rom manager, And I'm not sure what I did wrong but when I turn on my phone it goes to Phone Logo screen (first screen) then all black with a corrupted blue lines at the bottom about half an inch long. Then, a couple seconds later it goes to a full corrupted screen. then it just does everything repeatedly.
Sorry I can't take screen shots since my phone doesn't work. But any idea of what I might of done wrong?
My phone is already rooted and CwM was already installed. Not sure if the installation process was messed up or not. And I can't get my phone into the CwM recovery to fix this problem.

There are a bunch of threads and a sticky! (2nd topic in the Dev Forum) that state Rom Manager does not work with this phone. That is what you did wrong.
you should have flashed the rom in CWM, but since the damage is done, you will have to get the phone in download mode and use ODIN to flash a new rom and start over again.
Hopefully, you can still get in DL mode by holding both volume buttons at the same time and inserting the USB cable.
use FB's starter pack post for the files you need for ODIN, and don't use Rom Manager anymore!

That's another download mode screen. The previous screen you described sounds like you didn't have the right boot loaders in place. Check out The KJ6 Heimdall One-Click Collection. Select any of the three of those you want to use, and follow Bhundven's instructions (really easy). All you need to have installed previously is Java.
Let us know how it goes.

First go to Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall Programs and uninstall all the drivers having to do with your phone. Then plug the phone in and let it do it's thing even if it doesn't change anything just do it anyway. keep your phone plugged in and storage on.
Then...
1. Start/Computer right click and select Manage, the Computer Management screen will pop up.
2. In the left column go to Storage/disk management and look at the center screen ( which will be divided into two sections- top and bottom )
3. Look for the drive letter that you phone used ( it will be there ).
4. Right click on the letter and select change drive letter and paths...
5. Click on change ( middle option ). It should be set on " Assign the following drive letter ".
6. Change the drive letter and click OK. Click " Yes " on the pop-up and that is it.
After you see the letter change close everything out and then turn off USB from your phone then turn it back on and it should work. Let me know if you have any problems, I'll be here for a little while.
I'll try that now I'll let you know what's up in 20

Okay long story short my phone (Galaxy S 4G) is stuck on the screen where it shows a Phone, !, and a Computer. I did some research on the Internet and read something saying that this is an alternative Download Mode. Basically, what I am trying to do is Unroot my phone / revering back to stock, but did some dumb things to the point where I am stuck on this screen. I am currently using Odin to do all of this, but Odin doesn't recognize my phone for some odd reason because its been read before. So I did some research and read that I had to uninstall then reinstall some drivers then reboot my computer then do everything again. I did that, but Odin is still not recognizing my phone. I tried plugging my phone in all USB ports of my computer and its still not recognizing my phone. What do you think I should be doing? I definitely need some help and it would be greatly appreciated if any of you can help me.

Well, yes it's in Download mode, but the alternative one with the phone, !, and computer. Also I can't wipe/data factory reset unless theirs a way to get that if so let me know. The version of Odin I am using 1.7, so I tried v1.80 and the latest version which is 3.07. Yes, I have Kies installed with the drivers as well. I also looked into that heimdall one click, but there is too much stuff to do and download that my computer cant handle because it is really old so maybe if there is another way around this that would be helpful other than that I don't know what else to do.
Whatever you did that got it there... was perfect. If you had just flashed it once more when you got to that screen, your phone would have been working ever since.
Now? No clue what you've done with drivers and the like since back then. Try a one-click in a new USB port without installing any drivers?
Does the computer see the device and not Odin or do both see nothing (any beeps ?).
Are you doing the battery drop in while it's connected to the usb? Or booting it (into download mode) then plugging it into computer?
Which Rom are you trying to flash?
Windows should be able to do the one click. Which version (of Windows) are you using?

Odin only recognizes your port only if you actually in the download mode; the one with the picture of the android robot and the word 'downloading.' Here is what you need to do:
1) open Odin program;
2) remove battery from your phone;
3) plug USB cable into computer and your phone;
4) press the up and down volume keys at the same time;
5) As you hold down the volume keys, put the battery back on the phone, and wait for about 3 seconds. You should be able to see the download robot. If it doesn't work, try it again.

Well, if you plan to root your new phone in future, you are going to run into this issue again. Backing up the data won't help you get out of this jam. My advice to you is to use your new phone as is; don't try to root or install customize roms <<<---that was a painful experience, but I've mastered the timing to the point it takes only one try now.
If you are a first timer, it is not easy to get into download mode. You have to do a couple of times to get a hang of it. It becomes an art form - just like getting into DFU mode on an iPhone for first time.

Well, if you plan to root your new phone in future, you are going to run into this issue again. Backing up the data won't help you get out of this jam. My advice to you is to use your new phone as is; don't try to root or install customize roms.

I'm wondering why no one told OP to use Heimdall One Click back to stock KJ6...
Its really not that difficult dude! Its scarier than it really is . Trust when we tell you. Its gonna be more time consuming than anything else bout 2 maybe 3 hours ...this includes downloading, deleting, re downloading, connecting, disconnecting, "If u can get Odin to open and running on your old computer.You should be able to get Java, Bhundvens 1 click ..and Or Gremlin remover".!!! Kies is only good if you want the Samsung drivers once you've got your phone back to full fledge stock. If you want to save the $130 its gonna cost you for a phone through (Assurion)that in reality isn't worth buying again your better off using that towards a New phone trust me bro I'm no dev and don't speak they're language Lol (I wish) I personally know from frustrating trial and error! Believe that u can do it and when you do it you'll be like wow that's it!!! Just try being more cautious homez.
