i cant get my captivate in recovery mode i need to master clear it because its locked and i dont know the password someone help i dont know what to do
What have you done in order to get into recovery?
Vol up and down and power, let go when at&t screen comes up
I am not sure you can just factory reset in click quirk to remove an un lock code
I think you can reflash software using odin
yea i tried using the volume buttons and power but it doesnt wanna work for nothing i been trying all damn day
Have you tried getting into download mode
Take battery sim and ext sd out
Put battery back in
Hold vol up and down
While holding plug usb in (should be connected to pc)
By the way how did your screen get locked? Do you have usb debugging enabled
a lil child was playing with it and locked it while i had it sittin down but usb debugging is off and i tried that also
what is your build number, located under battery, my guess is 1008
yep 1008 man i kno u can help me some how
There is a known issue with some 1008 build phones, where button combos don't work.
Hmmmm. No button combos, no usb debugging. Its your phone rooted, have you flashed any roms?
I am really not sure you may need to reach out to samsung/at&t
its stock not rooted
Well you have done nothing wrong and the fact that you cannot get into recovery is a product fault.
Wait, a jig should get you into download mode

Watch this. If you can get into download mode you can use odin to flash stock software back onto your phone. You will lose your contacts, settings, and apps
I an guessing you have no idea what odin is
i kno what it is thanks imma try it
Pm me if you need more help I will offer anything I got. Good luck
Odin with three button fix. If you are lucky enough to get to this point. It will hopefully fix your issue going forward

I've been using custom roms for over a year with no problems, but am wondering if I'm currently facing a possibly bricked Captivate (unless I pursue the jig solution).
I'm really hoping there's another solution as I can ADB into my phone, but it still won't accept reboot download commands, it just simply reboots.
So technically, I can send commands to my phone with ADB, but download mode just doesn't want to work.
Are there any other avenues I can pursue?
I've tried various 3 button combo tricks to enter download mode and the aforementioned ADB reboot download.
I've been actively searching for a solution for 3 hours now and wouldn't post here if I wasn't desperate.
Same thing happened to me. Jig fixed it all.

Try this:
Open Odin and plug the cable into your computer only not your phone
Remove your battery from your phone
Wait 30 seconds and put it back in, don't turn your phone on
Hold both volume buttons down and then plug the cable into your phone, it should go into download mode.

Just tried, but no go.
This thing really doesn't want to enter DL mode.
try a few more times mine did that i thought it was bricked did it like 10 x before it worked, just make sure you open and close odin each time, then plug phone in with it off holding both volume buttons, if doesnt work remove battery pull cable put battery back close odin reopen odin, hold volume buttons and insert cable

Well if that doesn't work then I think you need to make or buy a jig to force it to download mode.
Guys need serious technical help..............................

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:

vol down+home+power <----this combo keys are not working.
Anyways thank u for reply.............
stuck on flashing.........................
when i pressed vol up+home+power,the port was found by odin but it dose not start flashing
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?

i dont think battery is problem in my case.i have checked my handset by replacing battery to.
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.

i changed my decision and visited service center today instead of tomorrow. when i handovered handset to them they inspected the handset i front of me. they disassembled handset gone through it.finally they told me that "we will try to resolve your problem with software, and the problem is not resolved then they will change(replace) the board.
lets see what they will do.i'll inform u what they did to my handset..............................
I think u need to go to customer care. (even i bricked my phone once...) but never ever accept that uve rooted ur phone... Thats wat i did... and i got my phone repaired without any further issues!

Hard bricked is nothing at all.
This boots up but loops.

I can't get past the Samsung logo. I cannot boot into recovery or download. What can I do? I've searched and read an no go with any of those solutions.
does it actually boot to android or gets stuck at logo
does it stay at logo forever or reboots after about 10secs, if reboots then its a stuck power button
Stuck at logo, no reboots. It doesn't come on when battery is taken out and put back in, so not stuck button.
if it boots u should be able to get into download/odin mode, how r u trying to get it into dl mode as i think ur doing it wrong, keep trying or maybe buy a usb jig as ive read that it will get it into dl mode but i havent tested that out

How to enter Download Mode on Galaxy S2 Skyrocket:
First of all, know that you will not use the Power button at all.
Connect your USB cable to the computer, but not to the device.
Now, pull off the battery from your device, and then place it back.
Press simultaneously the Volume Up + Volume Down buttons. With the buttons still pressed, connect the device to the USB cable.
The phone should turn on now, and a screen with a yellow triangle and a warning should appear on the screen.
Let go of the Volume Keys and press Volume Up once to enter Download Mode.
Nothing works, up, down, both same time, nothing. This started when I used Flashify to flash newest twrp .img. I think it's hosed.
recovery flashing should not interfere w/dl mode unless you flashed it for a different device which would of hard bricked it which yours is just a soft brick.
i dont think i ever seen a soft bricked i727 not being able to recover.
go through the ts for odin in my stickies
does pc see anything connected when phone is plugged in and booting
i would hazard a guess at a bad cable, usb port on phone or pc.
try just the volume down button b4 connecting cable, thats a rogers phone technique but you never know it might work if u have not tried it.
if all else fails a cheap usb jig might help
I've had USB cables in the past that transfer power perfectly well, but don't work to transfer data at all. Before considering your phone borked, I'd try a different cable, maybe a different port on your computer as well. I've taken Skyrockets right to death's door before, but even after frying them to one stop short of Hard-bricksville, Odin was always able to read them.

I tried a different call and port. I guess this thing is hosed. Thanks Flashify. I should have just installed a twrp zip.
