Hello Everyone,
I have a rogers captivate. I was trying to update to 2.3 android using Odin . I followed the whole process as stated. After rebooting, I got AT&T logo??? and the phone will not boot, go into recovery mode, or connect to my computer. Have I messed up my phone. Please advice.
how did you get an AT&T logo if it doesnt boot?
also what part of the process were you at? gingerbread shouldnt give the white ATT screen
it should give the "i9000" screen with gingerbread.
or were you flashing stock ATT first?
there is nothing wrong with having the wrong boot screen AND A FIX WAS RELEASED LAST NIGHT FOR GB
the fix for stock ATT has been out for a while. AND MY STOCK ROM FIXES IT TOO!
did you read the part about the button combos changing with gingerbread? or if you are on the ATT stock, use old button combos. Also you should have found my stock rom link before flashing, info there too!, its in my sig,
you have to give us more information to help you.
I beleive I was installing it to stock ATT first. That is when this happened. I was on Odin one click install. I remember the phone saying "do not disconnect the target". then all the installation was done from odin. This phone had 2.2 from samsung.Right now all that happens is that the phone starts and a flashing att logo on white background stays..
please let me know what other info is needed. i will post it all to the best possible
boot into download mode and flash ATT stock again. something messed up
are you using the "one click odin" or the other odin?
and what gingerbread are you trying after?
how do i do that. i have tried vol up+down+power combo. still the same flashing logo with no menus. i was using one click odin. and i was still on installing stock android. never got the chance to go to 2.3
If you can't get into download mode through the 3 button way you might need the jig. You got lucky since you're still able to boot up some have perma brick so try the jig and flash back to stock

HOLD VOL UP + DOWN
the plug in USB to PC.
keep buttons held until screen comes on!
i asked which gingerbread you were going to do AFTER
What is the build number on your phone, 4 numbers printed under the battery, mine is a 1010 for example, which mean oct. Of 2010 is when it was built. Some phones 1010 and after will not accept the one click odin rom and cause a bootloop like you are having, Try an odin package from TRusselo's sig instead.
my packages dont have the bootloaders. that might be whats screwed up with blinking att boot.
need download first before anything. i do have a GB bootloader package separately
something else:
try removing battery,
plug in USB to PC and Phone
Hold both Volume buttons
put battery back in.
should get you download mode
I really have noidea about what gingerbread i was after, i guess i wanted just the stock android without any custom software from samsung. I am total noob here as far as androids go.
the number on the battery say 2010.12.20 and the last forr nos under the battery at s/n are 11.02.
what is a jig. how do i use it. My phone cannot connect to the computer.
When I try to reset my device by any method, whether usb or power combos, it goes into either a. ATT logo flashing every few secs. or b. battery charging logo with nothing happeining.
Also my phone cannot be seen on my computer
gingerbread isnt for noobs
NOT THE DATE ON the battery
UNDER the battery ON THE PHONE
4 digit number
if you dont know what a jig or gingerbread or any of this stuff is,
you shouldnt have touched your friggin phone!
My apologies. the number is 1102. I understand I have screwed up. Any chance of having a working phone again.
GO GOOGLE A CAPTIVATE JIG AND BUY ONE
you wont be able to make one if you cant follow instructions.
that is your only hope. if not your phone is F'ed up perminantly.
your ONLY HOPE AFTER, is if your phone *somehow stops* turning on *forever*
and you send it back for warranty, and play dumb! ..... ..... ... .. .
PROGRAMMING a phone cant be learned it 5 minutes.
HELL you cant even read the friggin instructions (written for experienced users) in 5 minutes
this was an expensive lesson on researching and learning before doing

Sorry for stepping in..
Yes there is. Might be a little complicated tho. You have some reading to do my friend.
Tru, I'll let you handle it but HiTechChef, you might've to go in for waranty and exchange it saying it did that after you tried to update through Kies. They'll check it and give you another one.
Thanks I will try this method

Lol That kind of subtly is lost here... noone is picking up on your suggestion...
and thats how its going to stay,
ive said it before with almost the same words.
ive laid out all the tools....
correction of the original problem is necessary,
research is salvation,
resistance is futile.
there it is... i laughed... all is good again...
Hi everybody seems like I am the first to brick this phone and I've been looking all over the net. Still with no luck on how to get the phone back to download mode. Any help will please.
Thanx
Hold power volume+ & volume- at the same time.

no, and i don't know how it works
Research. Do some.
Answers are out there. Trust the joker.
Ps. Trust me, your not the first to brick. There is a user that has patiently sat with a soft brick for over a week.
If you did what should of been done before you had a chance to brick there is always a way.
Debug enabled?
Rooted? (In some cases not even necessary to be fixed)
ADB. Almost anything can be done with adb.

Hey there, aforementioned bricked guy reporting in.
Check out the Odin flashable stuff in another thread; that may be your best bet right now. If you can't get into recovery as usual, pop the battery, plug in usb, hold volume up and down, and out the battery is while holding those buttons.
If all else fails, AT&T will replace your phone for free if you got it on contract. I was worried about them denying me because I had a Captivate kernel (it displayed Galaxy S i897 on the splash screen) but they took it back regardless and I got a new phone out of it. Just play dumb with them just in case. ;D
For future reference, don't do anything to your phone just yet that isn't in the development forum. This is not a Galaxy S phone. You'll risk bricking it if you get too ahead of yourself and current development for the device.

So far I can tell you what works no problems.

I am sure many more work. Just haven't done much more.....bricked one.....don't want to push my luck.
Good luck and look forward to sharing more with users such as yourself.

try heimdall. there is a windows version. post results.
http://www.glassechidna.com.au/products/heimdall/
you will need the visual c++ redistributable package as well
this is like odin but you will need 7zip to extract the phone and csc files. you will also need the bootloaders and pit file if you repartition which i believe are in the extra files .zip lost1 posted
i have no luck also with heimdall i this there is problem with the ROM file and there is now ROM except the one posted by lost1. and body can get me a new ROm please that will be my last try
thanx
I never got heimdall the work either.
To be honest, if you did what I did, I'm almost positive an easy fix without much previous knowledge of Android is next to non-existent at this current point. Either there's something wrong with the files posted or we both destroyed it beyond what anyone here can help with atm.
It may be easier to return it, play dumb, obtain a shiny new Infuse and know to play it a little smarter this time. ;D

Hi ,
i tried all the ways to get this phone back but like i said there something wrong with the rom file because i went back and tried to use odin one click and it start to download the file and then stopped with error and after that the phone went dead no life at all and i gave up after a week of try, i went and play the dumb game and got another one. thanx for the advise and tthanx for everybody who tried to help
I have used the jig and it works fine. however, if he is getting the phone and pc with yellow sign between them, that means when he ran odin he selected re-partition. Dont select that one. you can still re odin with the phone and pc with yellow sign between them. download mode after doing that again
I just got a Samsung Captivate two days ago, and while trying to root it, I seem to have bricked it. When trying to flash initial root zip in stock recovery, the install always failed because it failed to verify the signature. Then I got the bright idea of ODIN one clicking back to stock, thinking maybe that'd help. Now, if the phone is unplugged, I get a boot loop with the white at&t screen, and if I try to plug it in to get into download mode, it just blinks the battery status screen, showing an empty battery. I tried replacing the battery with a fresh one, but no change. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
should have just ran a search for " captivate signature verification ".. million threads... and fix in my signature...
so you odin flashed to stock then flashed the root kernel?
or just flashed to stock? What stock? there are many. theres 3 odin packages and 4 one clicks just for ROGERS.. there are even more for att. some even ACTUALLY BRICK YOUR PHONE.
having the WRONG kernel for wrong rom causes bootloops.
you are not bricked. bricked your screen doesnt come on.
you really need to research.
Sounds like you flashed jf6 on a froyo shipped phone, losing your 3 button ability in the process.

I tried going back to gingerbread using Heimdall 1 click and it gives me a kernel error and failed. Now phone won't boot past the rogers logo. Any suggestions? No samsung screen. No green battery indicator when plugged in. Heimdall does detect the phone, and I've tried all USB ports and cords at my disposal. I use a mac so no access to odin. This is the first brick I haven't been able to get myself out of. Any help you would be appreciated

If you can get download mode, then flash a gingerbread stock rom, even if it means you will lose root still do it, then flash a new rom of your choice, if you can get into download mode then you haven't got a brick

I can get into download mode.heimdall detects my phone. I tried both qksters and adam outlers 1 click. neither would take. If I upgrade heimdall version (as it tells me its out of date) it wont get through the initial connection to the phone. if I use with out upgrade it continues to fail on kernel download.
This is my second brick (first one was when trying to root it on my mac) First brick was fixed through odin at my work. Unfortunately I don't want to wait till monday to have a functioning phone

Hummmm..ok
Let's step back here does out prompt you for drivers?
....you might have to make a stop at your office..
Try different USB ports, I used heimdall yesterday to go back to gingerbread (so I could get the boot loaders) and I had the same problem as you, I finally got it to work with a different USB port and even then it kept failing...but I just kept trying and eventually it went through
(Pull battery, place battery back in, hold volume up and down, plug USB in-should put you in download mode...even if you can't see anything on your screen you can still enter download mode)

DOesnt prompt me for drivers. It detects my phone and says ready to flash. I see the download mode screen. so its not completey screwed. Just can't get past the rogers logo..

Alright, here it is:
I encountered the same problems yesterday, heimdall doesn't work when flashing back to stock from ics, from what I've found, you must use gtg's ultimate unbrick, the pit repartitions everything and also resets your binary counter (cha-ching! ). Once completed, your phone will reboot and be stuck at "...installing default apk files..." for a few minutes, don't panic, let it run its course. From there on, you can do the usual root/flash cwm deal. .

Agreed. On my desktop (quad core 6 gb ram, watercooled blablablabl) can't run heimdal nor Odin to save its life.
My netbook (single core atom) took me back from CM9 with Odin like it was nothing.
My 7 year old laptop (running Ubuntu) works great using Heimdal (just run the .jar file as an executable)

I've flashed lots of roms and never had any issues. Also looked through the forum and know the basics about getting back to stock. I'm no expert, but I have a decent idea what I'm doing. I do appreciate a forum you can ask questions though and have people help out when your stumped. I did what i could from the tools I have at my disposal here, and ran into some problems. I'm not yelling SOS, just asking for some tips as what I have tried hasn't worked. All the same I do appreciate everyones opinions and help they provide. THat's what makes this forum great.
why would you need to heimdall if you are on a rogers infuse? Isn't that for AT&T phones only?

I don't have recovery.. otherwise I certainly would have
Ok so I've been rooted and unlocked for a while now, but stayed with the stock rom as when I tried out Synergy Nightlies it gave me some errors. So I went to try out CleanRom 2.1, people liked it and I didn't notice any flashing errors. So I flashed it through CWM 6.0.1 and it gave me the yellow exclamation mark saying I had unauthorized data on my phone. So I followed the sticky on how to unbrick my phone using the 2 boot loaders and the root66 stock image. My issue is that when running the root66 stock image through Odin it fails at _XmitData_Read, which seems to be somewhere in system.img.ext4. I've tried rebooting the computer, the phone, Odin, it just doesn't work. So when I reboot my phone after the failure I get Odin auto loading saying:
Odin Mode
Product Name: SCH-I535
Custom Binary Download: No
Current Binary: Samsung Official
System Status: Official
Qualcomm Secureboot: Enable
Then an image of a phone, 2 dots, a yellow exclamation, 2 dots and a computer are shown with the message "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies and try again.
Anyone able to help me?
can you still get to odin mode? also if you have kies installed on the computer erase it.

Kies isn't installed on the computer and yes I am still able to get into Odin Mode.
I'm under the impression that "unauthorized software" message comes from the locked bootloader (if I'm wrong about that someone plese correct me.)
Sounds like you're functional enough to be able to Odin back to stock and go from there - that's what I'd try. See the stickied thread in the Q&A forum.
I would run the FULL VRALF stock image through ODIN to return to stock. That is always the safest way out of a sticky situation.
Thanks guys, according to another post the version of EZ-Unlock I used most likely gave a false report and never actually unlocked my phone. The problem with going back to stock, which if what I'm trying to do, is that it fails.
Could be an USB issue - an intermittent connection would be most likely to cause problems while sending the system partition since that's the biggest. I've had problems using adb from time to time if I plug into one of the front-panel ports on my PC but no trouble with one on the back.
Maybe try switching ports or try a different cable ...
Actually what usb plug are you using on your computer? You should be using one in the back of your computer by the power supply. Seen the front jacks not work correctly for large transfers. Finally, try another usb cable.

Strange.... i was able to flash syergy on thefirst try. Never used odin during the whole process....
If youre rooted you need to make sure you have a custom recovery in place like cwm or twrp. Make sure you make a nand-backup.
I used casual to flash unsecure bootloader, with that and recovery in place you should be able to flash roms without any hitches....
I could never find a comprehensive guide on using odin so i never got around to testing it

So far I've tried 3 different USB cables and both a desktop, both front and back ports and a laptop, each one fails on the write of XmitData under system.img.ext4
I had a custom recovery installed and Odin is only being used to get me back to a stock rom, otherwise I did all my flashing under CWM 6.0.1 or twrp. I think the whole fake unlocked bootloader just hard bricked the software.
EDIT: Come to think of it I remember waking up to my phone in download mode. I think Verizon tried to install the update to my phone while I was sleeping. Granted it failed at the end, but I'm wondering if that did something to brick me now.
If you can get in download mode it can be saved. I woud re download the stock firmware or the 66, but personally i would go bone stock. You may just have a bad download.

Yea, I'm currently downloading at the speed of slug the newest update from the forums, will probably just redownload at home, since it's going to take over an hour >.<
EDIT:
Does anyone have a link for an older EZ-Unlocker, that is known to work, so that I don't get this problem yet again.
FIXED!
Ok, so using the newest stock rom from the dev forum worked. Can someone please give me a link to an old EZ-Unlocker so I can flash without worrying about another massive brick in my palm. I'm guessing that running the original root66 stock rom through dropbox somehow corrupted it.

I personally suggest not using the app if you already had trouble. Just root your phone using the Debug Root method in Development, download the aboot.img from Adam Outlers thread HERE to your phone, and run the commands at the very bottom in Terminal Emulater app (from the market).
That way you know for sure your bootloader is unlocked. This is what I have done and never had an issue.
Edit: Glad you got your issue resolved!
