I feel like a noob but am completely stumpped at this moment. Trying the kdz method to downgrade to Jul Baseband. Ive tried everything. Even whipped up a WinXP machine on VMWare, as the upgrade app crashes on Win7 without fail. Phone gets seen, kdz unpacks, starts process, at the point where the Pc starts disconnecting /connecting phone I get stuck at param 3053 everytime. But the phone doesn't brick. Everything stays as it was so I'm wondering if the problem may be an issue with my kdz download.
Someone who has successfully downgraded please post a downgrade reference.

I've used the KDZ_FW_update offline fix by spyrosk to downgrade before. It comes with some pretty good step-by-step instructions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22189294&postcount=30
I also have the KDZ files for V21E_00.KDZ, V21E_00.01.KDZ, and V21Y_00.KDZ here:

Oh man. Thank you so much for the hosted kdz!
Ill try again. Did you use XP, vista, or 7?

I used Windows 7. The KDZ's are still uploading so give them some time. Good luck!

What is the difference between the 2 21E files?
I had the first one V21E_00 and I was told I needed the other one V21E_00_01 for the P999DW model.
Do you know anymore detail in regards to those 2 kdz?

I heard the same thing regarding the V21E_00_01 being T-Mobile G2x (or at least DW model) specific but don't know much more than that. That's the one I used and it worked perfectly. We're in the same boat... I'd be interested in finding out if there is a difference and what it could be too.

Well the only thing I am doing differently tonight is using the 00.01.kdz instead of just the 00.kdz
So if it goes thru with no flaws than I'd say
V21E_00=P999
V21E_00_01=P999DW
I'll know in about 10-15min. lol

if you still need help, i was having the same problems as you. just to upgrade. all you need to do is go back to COMPLETE stock, that means unrooting too. it took me 3 days to figure that out and even ran windows xp on my computer to try and do it with thte same results. i honestly wish that we could use NVFlash (i have used it to flash the baseband to my gTablet). after that if it doesnt work the first time it should in about 3. sometimes its just something with the hacked server not running right.

ATT TILT ROM UPDATE
Flash this rom. Then flash another radio. I heard it worked.
Edit: Ok, it appears this isn't working for anyone except for one person. I am waiting for him to return my phone call on with the update version. He specifically stated that he was able to remove "that ****ty 65.17. At&t radio by getting htc's latest rom update flashing it and then flashing another radio". I will attempt to get another link, rom/radio version, and anything else he can provide. I did see his device a few days ago and he did in fact have this radio, as I been waiting for a solution for him from here.
I made the assumption this was the update he was speaking about because it is the only one on the site regarding the tilt, as his phone is att branded. I apologize for any misleading information and hopefully it can be solved soon for the sake of everyone with that radio.
Edit 2: Durrr, he owns two Tilts and the original phone still has the radio. He flashed the other phone thinking it worked. Sorry for the confusion.
for which country ?
because i never found any update from the basters as i put my location netherlands in my account

I have an unlocked Rogers Captivate currently running 2.1 (JL2). I am trying to update to 2.2 with Kies. I have tried the newest version and also 1.53. Kies recognizes the phone however it will not update, it says "This version of the device cannot be updated".
I have searched for this but have found nothing that has helped me.
Try using a different USB port, I tried using the ports on the front of my PC, no go, moved it to the rear ports and it worked.
No change.
This is what I get.

Were you getting the same message in Kies?
The problem isn't Kies, as it's connecting and reading your device just fine. The problem is the firmware build on the device that Kies can't update. If you want 2.2, you can get it by flashing the one in my sig.

Yup, I got it saying I already have the latest ones, got it updating and stopped it self with error or it doesn't even detect my phone. Until I used win7 32bits laptop, and luckily got it upgraded. But honestly, I'm so disappointed with the stock froyo. After upgrading, it was slower than eclair in general, including UI, games and everthing. Especially worst is the browser speed. I couldnt even scroll on big contents sites, like phonearena.com or pocketnow.com. cuz of the flash. I bet even u successfully update it, you would wanna flash a custom rom to gain more speed or battery. Just like the same path i went through.

Why would this be though? If 2.2 is available and my phone is on an older firmware why would it not offer the update? Thats just messed up.
Anyway I did find the Rogers 2.2 update and flashed with ODIN, it was pretty easy. Does your stock ROM have all the Rogers crap removed?

I had similar experience with 2.2 on my Vibrant. I found by turning plugins to "on demand" made browsing much better. Although the Captivate is far less laggy than the Vibrant, it runs much smoother to me.

If you flashed to 2.1, there's a chance that something is preventing Kies from reading it as true stock firmware. A setting or file could be missing. My ROM doesn't have anything added or removed, that would defeat the purpose of a stock ROM made for warranty purposes. Rogers didn't add much and if you don't want the few apps they did add, they're easy enough to remove with TiBu.
Go into your registry and delete any entries for KIES. Then reinstall the driver package from Samsung. It will work then.

Try reformatting the card? Did they work before you rooted? do they work again if you unroot?
They worked before the root, I didn't unroot yet. When you out then in the phone and go to the SD card setting it shows nothing. Just says unavailable. So I can't even format it on the phone. I've formatted them in many ways on the pc too
HTC EVO = my best friend
did you try pulling out the sdcard and putting it back in? does it show a blank sdcard, or no sdcard at all?

1. Go here and download a stock rom to install on your captivate.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
Instructions on how to do that are on this page. I suggest going for 2.3.5 gingerbread I897UCKJ3...with bootloaders, then flash the kernel with CWM which is what you use to install other roms.
2. If you are not happy with Gingerbread, and want to get ICS or other custom roms, go here and read up on how to install a new rom over stock.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266
Actually, do read up on both stickies to have a better idea of the flashing process. I didn't know a damn thing about flashing 3 weeks ago, and now I've been flashing roms, kernels and modems without any problems. Just make sure to read everything carefully before doing anything. As for which rom is best...well, that's up to you to try and pick out which one is best for you.
Good luck.

Now the only way to fix is by tricking the phone into thinking the external sd card is the inernal sdcard....ADB SDK AVD...three big acronyms for IM SCREWED!
Or am I?
Found some people over at mobiletechvideos to apply the Unbrickable MOD created by Adam Outler (Genius of sorts).
Also they can provide someting called JTAG for very reasonable prices... that is unless you know you can fix it yourself. Which unfortunately I cant right now
or I would just because I know its possible, just not for me..right now.
I think its really sad that the only software to really screw up my phone ICS
was my favorite of all. I hope all is fixed when I get my Unbrickable phone back I CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!

Here is a guide on how to get odin working on your computer, you can get the stock firmware from the stock firmware thread that is right here in the developers section (btw you posted your question in the wrong section.)

I can't run Odin cuz I don't have a PC. I'm on a MAC. And I can't find the Heimdall files to flash over. If this is in the wrong section, I'm sorry. I thought since I was requesting a Nandroid backup of a ROM that this belongs in development.
Mod, if this belongs in Q&A, feel free to move. And again, my apologies.

Also, I don't think that your hyper link worked, there is no link to "here" for that guide.

Hi there
Do not worry. It is easy to come back to the stock Rom. I have done this a hundred of times already. You only need to read a little bit the process to install via ODIN, I recommend you use a windows based software in order to make your software work with your tablet. Do not forget to install Samsung kies with the driver to communicate with the device as well as the odin software with the stock Rom which you can find both programs in this link:

God bless you....

Mobile ODIN is still an option as well.

I looked around at Mobile Odin and Im not sure how to get that running on a soft brick... How can I install and run it on a tab that doesnt boot?

I use a Mac and have installed Windows via Bootcamp. Would that be something you feel comfortable doing to have access to the Windows platform when you need it? It's pretty easy to do (lots of tutorials out there including one from Apple) and because it is free ATM, I installed Windows 8 consumer preview - and it runs pretty well on my Mac.

+ 1 VitaZora is right, you cannot stop yourself from reviving your device only 'cuz you have not a "real" PC! C'mon just emulate Windows OS and use Odin. You'll be safe

Funny thing, I actually did install Windows 8 CP as a Virtual Box, but my wife refused to let me parrallel it... She said "You wanted a Mac, not a PC. I'm not having you put Windows on the Mac... When I did a Virtual Box on it tho, the usb wouldn't recognize the tab, even with drivers installed... But I was able to get a hold of a Windows based PC for a little while early this morning and Odin'd the Tab back to stock... Finally..... Thank you everyone who provided help and tried to find a solution to my issue... This is why I LOVE this site and (most of) the people in it... When a member has an issue, other members take care of it... Its really awesome... Thanks again...
MOD----- CLOSE THREAD PLEASE----
Also, lastly, because everyone here was so helpful to me, you have all received official "thanks" from me... Thank you all again...
