The captivate cannot boot at all when pressing the power key, actually all three keys seems unresponsive. I can only use a Jig to get in into download mode, but it freezes using OdinV3 one click.. It freezes at dbdata.rfs or factoryfs.rfs.. If I waited long enough, it will show a green screen or sometime a yellowish orange screen..
So is my cap hard bricked then...?
I used the same computer/setting/cable to odin other devices and every time works..
Try installing the samsung driver, then restart your computer.
Now, go to development, find the odin thread by designgears, download those drivers. Install drivers. Restart computer. Start odin. Plug usb into port on backof computer. Put phone in dl mode. By now you should be ready to hit start. I would post a link for you, but it's hard to do from my phone.
I used that method for a numbers of cap and worked every time but not for this one. Think it is hardware malfunctioned..
sometimes the phone is actually on when the screen is black. see if you can see the phone in odin without being in download mode. if you can run master clear in odin one click. then try download again. try different firmware versions too. odin one click would fail to flash my phone untill after i flashed the jh2 leak with full odin. i dont know why but now both odins work. you can try to flash rogers stock 2.2 firmware. it wont hurt anything.
Keep trying, third has happened to me before. Eventually it went through. Also its possible different pc, or cable

A good rule of thumb for checking if you have a hard brick is "Did something show up on the screen at any point?" If so, you aren't hard bricked. A hard bricked phone will be completely unresponsive to anything, including a jig.
I'd say keep trying. Odin is pretty buggy and sometimes refuses to work. You might also want to try a different usb cable, and a different usb port on your computer. It may be simply that you have a faulty cable or port, and it's losing connection to your phone in the middle of your flash.
Also, have you tried using Odin with repartition checked?
I used other ports and cables, but now it won't even boot into d/l mode with a jig.. just get warm at the back between the camera and TF slot.. think its really hard bricked now..

The Odin one click has no repartition option. When I tried to use Odin3 V1.7, the jig failed to take the phone into d/l mode and the phone got warm. btw, the jig is working.
Do you by chance have kies running. I once thought I had it off... But it was just minimized and it stopped odin from working.
Just a shot in the dark.

I had never installed Kies.. I actually odin another cappy right before this one, and that one works.. Think there is no hope and have to sell it for for parts then .
Hi !
This is my problem : my current rom is a i9003XXKP9 and it's laggy, 3G is slow, 90% of apps won't run, battery drains fast, camera doesn't work... so I want to go back to a FroYo version (i9003XXKB3) but Odin (1.82) gets stuck at "setup connection". My i9003 is connected in Download mode, I removed SIM and SDCard, changed USB port (7 out of 7 actually...) but still stuck at the first step of the flash... This fills me with despair... Oh and I also have my drivers up to date
Please help me, I never had a problem flashing all my WM phones...
Thank you
Well I don't have a 9003 but make sure you do not wait too long to start the flash after connection to the computer. It will still show as connected but it seems the i9000 at least stops looking for the download after a little while.
Also try another version of Odin. I had one that just never worked.
Try move the sd card...
I've had that before, usually solved by removing the battery for a couple of minutes and then booting into download mode again.
Also, start Odin (as administrator to be sure) before you plug in the phone. It's sometimes very picky about that it seems.
I am able to get past Odin "setup connection" issue for I9003
Hi!
I had this issue for more than a week and now I managed to find a solution for this. Previously I was working with Windows 7 and had no issues while using Odin for flashing the ROMs. But when I shifted to my old machine having WinXP I had the issue in Odin which get stuck on "setup connection".
Yes, I tried re-installing the drivers, made sure that Kies is not running in task manager, searched in google for solutions and followed all methods suggested, but still no luck whatever I did. Then finally I tried this and it worked...
After putting my phone in the download mode, I first tried to flash with Odin3 v1.82. Once it got stuck on "setup connection", I simply closed Odin3 v1.82 and opened Odin3 v1.83 and tried flashing again. Now it worked... I didn't disconnect the phone during this process of changing the Odin. I tried many times today and this method worked for me all the time. You can first try with any version of Odin. If that version doesn't work, simply close it and try with the other version.
Hope this helps someone who has this issue...
Turn off antivirus Did the trick for me.

removing the sdcard and sim worked for me
My case with this kind of problems
Let me tell u about a problem i have all the time, on my first flashes with Odin i always got stuck on the setup connection, but it was a problem with my USB ports, it turns out that not all ports are 2.0, which is the recommended for doing this kind of things.....
When i found out this, i tried on all of my 8 ports 'till i found the right one
Another issue, at least with my device, is that the USB cable doesn't "grab" well and it happened to me that at least 5 times the flashing was interrupted by this kind of problem.
I use Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 7 Ultimate in my desktop PC and in my laptop respectively......

I have an i9000 as well, and I can confirm this did the trick. Fire up odin as soon as you get the phone into download mode!

Hey thanks a lot .. this method helped me loads .. was stuck for a long time on download mode .. guess you have to pull the battery and enter downlad mode again for odin not to get stuck on Setup conection .. ur right it stops loking for download s.. thanks again .. im on i9000 though
Mine was also hanging at SetupConnection.
Ctrl + Alt + Delete and kill process KiesTrayAgent.exe.
Restart Odin and it works!

Hello

opening and exiting samsung kies wrked 4 me !!!
Recovery instead of Download mode
Maybe, just maybe. I'm suggesting this because it happened to me and I was stuck for 3 days. Make sure you'r not in recovery mode instead of download mode.
Recovery : Volume Up + Home + Power
Download : Volume Down + Home + Power

Had serendipity vii, tried to install a theme. It bricked the phone.
used odin 3. restored the phone to factory.
tried rooting again and tried to put serendipity back on
didn't work
tried a bunch of different ways
then on my last attempt used odin to try and load serendipity vii. it stoped at "get PTI for Mapping...Firmware update start...Removed!...Completed. All threads completed (succedd 1/ failed 0)
now the thing won't even start in download mode or samsung screen.
the only thing I can think of is the battery died. but its been plugged in for a while now and still the thing is dead.
any ideas out there for the n00b?
Im beyond my limited capacity...
thanks
First make sure your using the factory Samsung cable. Your battery may have died but you should be able to get into download mode without the battery. Start Odin >plug cable into computer > volume down > plug in cable.
Too late now but, I don't believe you can use Odin to install Serendipity, thats probably what bricked your phone.
I think the PIT is screwed up - gtg's ultimate unbrick does include a fixed PIT.
The following has never failed to enter download mode for me:
Pull battery and reinsert
DO NOT power up
Hold VolUp + VolDn while inserting the USB cable into the phone
Note that if things are really screwed up, download mode shows a different screen - a "phone-to-PC" instead of the usual "android construction worker" screen.
and even while it shows that screen u can still restore, try the GTG unbrick method , it should work.

I was trying to flash CM9 yesterday and my phone turned off during the installation, after turning it back on it was getting into a boot cycle and I was not able to access the recovery mode. Today I decided to put it on download mode and turn it back to stock but I couldn't for some reason and decided to take it off the usb cable. Since then I cannot access the download mode and im only getting a black screen with a cellphone icon and computer icon.
Please help...

There are a few of them. There is even one that I got once where the screen is totally black. No hint at all, but the device still showed up on the usb bus.
Yes. The one you're seeing is the "OH Crap I think I messed up my phone" one. Happens when odin or heimdall fail to flash correctly. Just read that guide and you'll be able to get back to where you want to be.
Its alive!!!! Thanks all.
So one day I decided to flash custom ROM onto my Samsung galaxy Tab 3 Lite (SM-T110) and I used Odin and was new to the whole Rom flashing thing, and so It messed up during flashing and I was stupid and unplugged my tablet and now it is stuck in the download mode saying "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue, please use KIES and try again" something along those lines, and I tried looking it up and tried to fix it, like holding down power button and hard rebooting, didn't work, which now, every time I plug it into my pc to try a flash factory ROM and it keeps turning on and off on the error screen. So can someone help? I cant take it apart because I am using a screwdriver and it is damaging it, to try and take out battery and put it back in, and I'm not buying one of those plastic tools, I want to but, its just for another reason why I can't, So can anyone help? Thanks!

where can I find an bfs? and what does it stand for?
EDIT: I think I found one, but ill have to wait till I get home from school to do it
So I downloaded it and it was in .tar format. do I need to convert it? because in ap it doenst show up, it shows file formats and .tar is not one of them.
EDIT: never mind used WinZip, and added it, but like I said, every time I plug my tablet into my pc, it turns on, shows the download mode error screen and turn off, then turns right back on, with same screen, and so on and so on. so I really cant do anything till that is fixed...any suggestions? Thanks!

Ok just fixed the turning on and off thing, I had best idea, hold power button and plug in cord, then let go of power button and it should stay on now
EDIT: just plugged into my pc and its doing it again, it worked with charging cable, but I guess since I unplugged it, it stopped working, ill see when I get home from school and try again
Also turns out the screen only flashes on and off, when it is connected to my pc, when it is to the wall, its fine, so I need to figure that out
Ok it works with my tablet plugged into the "charging only" port basicly, but it does both charge and can send data. But every time I try to flash i on Odin, It always fails, so idk what to do

ok I fixed it, using this link https://www.full-repair-firmware.com/2017/11/full-firmware-t110.html
ok good
But it made it a different language upon setup but I can change to English, but it installs like 4 applications every time I reset it and boot it up, I can uninstall them, but its annoying, and the app called calendar or is supposed to be, is called s planer, I don't like it so I'm trying to find a stock ROM for it so it is back to normal.
