volume down, power and home button combo doesn't work :/
what can i do to enter download mode?
Shut down ur device completely.
Unplug ur device from the charger or PC.
Hold down volume down and home button.
While keeping that pressed down, power up ur device.
Hold on to all three buttons until u see the download mode screen.
Hope that helps.
tnx, but i did all that several times, non of them got me into dwnload mode.
i read about some series of galaxy s, i think, which had this bug, they were unable to enter dnwload as well. i hope it's not the same problem
so is there a way to enter dwnload or do update some other way? i'm on 2.3.4 gingerbread.xwkg8
if you have 'USB jig' use that or buy one . It will be always useful.
(in eBay lowest price will be $1.55 including shipping to many country. But, it will take 2-4 weeks)

Bring ur phone back to Samsung and have it changed.
No point having a phone that doesn't boot into stock recovery or stock download mode.
Both these functions should work on a stock phone and not void warranty.
i tried again several times today and still nothing..
ima have it replaced defo, tnx
try reset yo factory setting..

No problem
USB jig doesn't work the same way on SGR as on SGS II but it works for sure!
In case you want to reset the counter:
Enter DM using this way every time you want to reset the counter. Once you did it just remove jig, plug usb-cable and install your firmware. U should see the green text: Success to erasing the record of custom OS!
you can see it on attached pic.
ok.. have a nice day.. =)

u r one lucky person...same thing happened to me and i am trying to get my cappy recognized but with no luck...
Hi,
I just bought a captivate (rogers) 2h ago and was trying to put my phone ready for customization and I had the same long/no moving message under odin.
I removed the phone, and now I have the phone/warning/pc icon and nothing more.
And odin doesn't recognize it at all...
Is it bricked?

use jig...it will go in download mode and u can use Odin3 v1.7 after that
Actually I used this method (from xda) :
1. power off phone
2. remove battery.
3. plug in USB cable to computer and phone (with battery out)
4. hold Vol Up and Vol Down
5. drop in the battery while still holding the vol buttons
6. in 2 secs you'll be in download mode
And now it works!!! Thanks to adzidek!!

for this method to work, do u need ur phone to have 3 button combo working?
You guys are lucky. My phone got stuck in the factoryfs.rfs step. Now it's dead. No response to charger to power button, or 3 button combo. Nothing.
Still under warranty so I'm sending back to Samsung next week.

If ur phone has no signs of life...even when plugged into the wall charger, then it is hard bricked.

Do you have a self built jig (3x 100k resistors) or a USB jig?
USB jib is pretty straight forward, you simply put it in the phone's USB port and it will force the phone into download mode. Whether the phone is on or off doesn't matter. (You do need a charged battery in)

I have to say thank you so much. I have been flashing my captivate for over two years now and have soft bricked it many times but I have always been able to 3-button or buttons with USB cable recover it. Last night my brother asked me to flash his phone to CM10. I agreed to and I was shocked with ODIN failed and got stuck on setting connection. I was even more upset when nothing would put me in download mode.
I stumbled on this thread whilst waiting for radio shack to open this morning and my stock 2.2 ODIN saw the phone! Yay. Now the phone is happily running CM10. I think this is a sign anyways that I should make a JIG anyways. Third time in need of one and yet I always find the most obscure way of getting by without it. I am such a bad elec. eng. to not have make a single usb JIG.
Thank you again for posting this so long ago. And thank you XDA for (putting me in trouble but) always having the solutions to save me.
PS. The only difference in the two phones that I can tell is mine is batch 1012 and shipped stock eclair and his is 1xxx and shipped stock froyo.
Guys need serious technical help..............................
i have rooted my phone with super one click all things were going fine.installed rom manager to backup my stock ROM and committed a mistake and installed wrong cwm and tried to backup my stock rom.selecting the backup option it Suppose reboot my phone in download mode which doesn't happen. and now i dose not have any access to my phone.
I searched whole forum and haven't found any solution.please help me.
Need guidance..
download and install pratyush.creed rom using odin and ur phone will be fine again
Bricked Screen (A.K.A. phone-!-pc or Black Screen of Death)
To recover from this problem, you'll need to get into the Download Mode.
Black Screen of Death:A fully bricked phone will not boot, or display the charging logo when connected to a USB charger. This presently cannot be recovered from any recovery attempt, it will require the phone to be sent back to Samsung and be serviced.
This screen does not always mean your phone is bricked. If you have a hardware locked vibrant, maybe, however, if your phone is not hardware locked, unplug the USB cable from the phone, Hold down Vol UP+Vol Down+Power, the screen will flash black, continue holding down all 3 buttons, you will see the "phone--!--PC" screen again, continue holding all 3 buttons, the screen will flash black again, release the power button only. This will put you into Download Mode.
If this does not work, open odin. Then connect your usb cable to your phone and computer. While the USB is plugged in and Odin running press and hold volume down + Home + Power. Once the black screen comes (flashes) release the Power Button. It should get into download mode.
Additionally it is possible to get into the Download Mode using a kind of micro-usb connector, modified with a 301k resistor as showed in this video:

I try and schema whit modified resistor but nothing. i measured the level of battery it was at 2,4 V after some seconds it down to 0. Maybe it the battery? i charge all the night and next day i put on USB on PC all the day before it die. Maybe i broke the battery and no phone?

Now i think service center is the last option.i'll visit there latest by tommorow.
If you send it to the service, please after they send back to you the phone, post what they do to the phone (change motherboard or change another piece or just flash it) Thanks.

lets see what they will do.i'll inform u what they did to my handset..............................

As some of you speak of changing motherboard ... does such procedure cost much? Or do you guys all make this via warranty?
i believe it's all covered under the warranty.
though i doubt that they actually change the motherboard.

Open the back cover, and you can find a small pin hole, between the camera and the speakers.
Its a very small hole.

This is only if you are experiencing a bootloop. If your phone is not entering download mode or recovery mode and even if a USB is not working.... As I told you the location of the hard reset button, just open the back flap and follow the instruction.
DO AT YOUR OWN RISK!
You will need two people for this.. Keep that pin hole pressed with a pin, then keeping it pressed try to enter the download mode- [Volume down + Home + Power button pursed]. Try it a couple of times and your phone will enter download mode
and then as you enter the download mode, flash to a stock firmware using odin.

Did you press the pin hole button carefully? Try using a thicker pin so that it is directly pressed.
Though I've never been struck hard, without the download mode, but this works fine on Samsung Galaxy sl i9003.

Well try to enter the download mode while after pressing the pin in the small hole behind.
Btw that button behind will work only if your phone is in soft brick mode. That is it atleast starts/vibrates, screen becomes little light blue when u try to start the phone.
U may need to flash the stock kernel
Try remove ur battery. Push three button to download mode (volume down+home+power). Reinsert battery while holding the button. Wait up to see phone enter download mode. If doesn't, repeat step with battery inserted in your phone. When phone enter the download mode I assume u know what to do next.

I assume you are not doing it correctly. Otherwise soft bricked generally do not even require hard reset button generally.
First press the volume down, after a second or two, press home button. Then while holding other two buttons, press power button. Hold it till it vibrates.
Then, just leave the power button. After two or three sec, leave the other two buttons.
sometimes it's hard to get the download mode, then only you need to use reset button.

I could do hardware reset, but have now poor gsm signal!
I was on CM 10 alpha4 + nicsptl kernel (Had execllent signal strength even in bathroom, lift)
Due to bad battery life I decided to go back to stock. vai xxkpe > DDLF2
After flashing latona I could not get the phone in download mode so did hardware reset (reset btton between camera and speaker + download buttons (see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411768)
I flshed xxkpe and DDLF2+ CF-root. Now I had a big signal drop problem!
So I flshed full xxkpe three times with full data wipes and falshed DDLF2 and CF-root. Same problem.
I thought CM10 + nicsptl might be better so I flashed them (flashed CM10 thrice + gapps to be sure)
Same signal problem!
Flashed signal-fix kernel, cleared dalvik same issue!
I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1776211
So I think the reason is not modem or sim. It has to do with hardware reset, I guess.
Can any one help?

Can you boot your phone in CWM recovery?
You should charge your phone first.. Make sure your phone's battery is fully charged.
charge the phone, enter download mode while connected to a pc, flash a stock kernel with odin then flash the rom. does the recovery mode work?
Hello, first thanks for the answer, im sure the battery is fully charged, becouse i get 2 batteris off my friends and i asked them if the baterry is charged and them tell yes, and i can't get recovery mode, if i press +vol and home button and power button the phone start with the samsung model screen and power off on 3 seconds, i dont know what to do. Thanks

maybe your power button is stuck, or other button is stock
Get it repaired (talk to your phone company about this e.g. Sony), i think its the only way to fix your phone.:thumbup:

- try charging the accu externaly
