hi.
i need help.
i've played a lot with my s6310n tried to move installed apps into SD card , using Link2SD and some other apps. (many times). nothing worked. probably i needed a custom rom or so.
anyways, i've turned it off after using Link2SD, and when i tried to turn it on, nothing happened.
ever since that, it's not turning on. when i attach it to the micro usb in my computer, i get a msg, a device as been plugged in. and recognize it. but nothing more. now it's not even recognize it, i get a msg "new hardware".
but in both ways, thats all i had. no access to the phone in anyway, no download mode no boot mode no nothing.
i guess that's what we call a hard bricked phone.
i bought a jig usb from ebay to try fixing it.
but nothing happened. so now i don't know it's it's the jig usb not working or it's because it's too bricked already.
please help me out.
thanks.
had same problem with mine, do you solved?

Is there anyway to restore a Captivate to 100% stock without a USB connection? Ie, load something on to an external sd cards to restore?
I've used ODIN plenty of times, but somehow I've lost my USB connection for anything other than charging the phone (USB Device Not Recognized).
Thanks...
Nope, Odin has to be done via USB, the closest thing out there is Redbend, but ATM people have only put together packages for flashing the kernel, not the whole phone
What about drivers?
Have you tried updating the drivers or installing them?
Crap!
I guess I have to continue trying to get my USB connection to work.
I'm worried that my problem might be hardware on the phone, and without reverting to stock, I won't be able to return it!
Any ideas for the USB problem? I'm using the correct (ODIN) USB driver, installed, uninstalled, re-installed.

sounds like you are having the same USB problem I am on mine (see my post on no USB) BUT...after several weeks w no USB, today I connected the phone to my laptop so I could charge it and VOILA! The phone vibrated and asked me what usb connection did I want to select. Out of the blues, sure I've installed some games and what not but I troubleshot the problem for days several weeks ago and had absolutely no luck. I eventually gave up chalking it up as a bad USB on my phone and being that its rooted I couldnt exchange it. I still think its a defective USB but keep trying on yours and maybe it'll kick in like mine did, I did pull the battery like 10 times...I doubt that did it

Wow, that's weird, but great news for you...congrats!
My situation is a little different, since I have USB on the phone to "Ask on connection" and each and every time I plug in the USB the phone vibrates and makes me select. Doesn't matter WHAT I select. The phone thinks all is well, but any computer I try to attach it to says the device isn't recognized. And I've tried both of the drivers, and have tried each on a clean on install on 'fresh' computers.

Back to the topic in the thread title...

Since ODIN from an SD card is a no-go...how about a clockwork restore of a stock phone image?
Thanks...
do you have usb debugging enabled? if not enable that. also instead of ask on connection do mass storage thats how it has always worked for me

Debugging on or off, no difference.
Kies, Media, Storage, PC Internet, Ask, no difference.
But thanks for trying!
Fivebraids,
Try it on another computer and see if the drivers download. Maybe something hosed your drivers. Kies always hoses mine.
Did you download and install the drivers that are on the OP in the Odin one click thread? Odin is *****y about drivers and sometimes they take a couple of tries.
Also, does the USB work when you just charge from a wall outlet? If it does then your phone is fine, it is a driver issue.
If you have a Nanadroid backup of stock ran through ClockworkMod within ROM Manager than the answer is yes, if you didn't create a Nandroid backup then the answer is no.
update: I just reread your OP and if it works with charging from the wall then you definately have a driver issue.
Ok, problem solved!
This no USB problem HAS to be a hardware, since I've tried every possible permutation of drivers, settings, different cables, different computers, etc.
I started this thread hoping that I could somehow restore the phone to stock (removing SRE, SU, etc. so I can return it for a new one) without being able to run ODIN. It appears that isn't possible, but I found a way to do the no-usb restore!
I got a copy of the files created by ROM manager of a stock Captivate. I then used Switfp to FTP these files over Wifi to my non-usb phone. I used Rom manager to 'restore' that set of files. All I had to do then was un-root, and voila...STOCK!
I'm off to AT&T tomorrow to return this second Captivate...hoping three times is a charm!
Thanks to everyone for the patience and assistance!
nice job i probably never would've thought of that
Can you link me where you got that stock rom to flash via Nandroid. I am in the same boat as you are. I can't even get my device into recovery. Tried all steps as you and no go on the usb. POS Cappy #2
Hey guys,
Recently I have encountered a problem with my Captivate. When I connect it to my PC in download mode, I am notified that the device is not recognized. Thus, Odin doesn't see it.
I searched the forums and found instances of people with similar issues, but there isn't any real standard way to fix this.
So as it stands, I have a 2.3.3 Rom on my phone, with the updated bootloaders, and no way to get back to stock so I can trade it in on the warranty.
I am convinced that this is an issue with the phone itself, as I have tried connecting to Odin while in Download Mode on two separate computers, I have tried with two separate usb cables, I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers a few times, I don't have KIES installed, I have tried different versions of the drivers, I have tried with USB debugging on and off, and so on. So clearly, through all of this, it would seem that there is an issue with the phone's USB port.
So the question is, is there any way to restore to the stock 2.1 or 2.2 roms without using Odin (bearing in mind that there are 2.3.3 bootloaders present) or am I pretty much screwed? The idea is to get a warranty replacement on account of the USB issue.
Also, for what it is worth, I am still able to mount the SD cards while the phone is on, this only occurs in Download Mode.
Thanks!
Give the I9000 drivers a shot ... Couldn't hurt...
What rom. Were u running u may need the nexus s drivers

I tried using the i9000 drivers and I am getting the same exact problem. :/
Also, I am running Continuum 5.1.
Try Starting odin plugging the phone into the pc off, and then using the power and volume down buttons to enter download mode. Worked for me.
I have seen it in other places that if your micro sd card has a lot of space used the function can time out before the phone is recognised. It has been recommended to remove your sd card before you start the process.

Thank you, I will remember this for the future.
ive tried multiple times to fix this but it doesnt work. Last time i posted a thread here i said my phone was broken and i was not able to fix it because of the usb connection problem i had, so i talked to the company and they sent me a replacement but i still have the same usb connection problem, whenever i want to plug in the usb cable to my pc, the phone recognizes the connection but my pc doesn't. i talked to the company about this and they said ' Unfortunately, we don't have any information regarding this issue.", i do not know how to fix this. I've tried uninstalling the usb drivers and re installing them but nothing seems to work.
some of you suggested to try to take out the battery for 30secs open odin plug the usb in the phone hold vol up and down then slap the battery in while still holding keep holding it and if a com sign comes up in odin flash it even if screens blank, but it didn't work. i tried heimdell but it doesnt recognize my phone. if i cant use that, it means i cant root my phone and change the annoying tmobile boot animation. so pleaaaassee can you find a fix for this????, ohh by the way it didn't work when i put it in the download mode.
please
does anybody know how to fix it??? pleeeeeeeeeease
I'm assuming that you downloaded the 64 bit drivers? Try downloading the 32 bit ones. I read somewhere that it worked for some people.
or try installing kies and then plugging in the phone. go to install --> drivers in kies and let it install. then unplug the phone, restart the computer and try again
imusing the32 bit drivers
it didnt work, im going to have to buy another cablee to see if thats the problem,thanks for being so helpful jager555
Also, don't forget to try to hook up the phone to another computer.
ive tried this in 3 different computers
Are you trying to odin or just transfer files to sd?

If it's not the computer or the cable it's the phone. You've narrowed it down. Send it in for warranty?
The phone should work as mass storage with no drivers whatsoever. Pretty much any modern OS out right now will be able to recognize the phone with the drivers it come with and let you access the SD card of the phone, so yes, looks like the phone's the problem.
hmmmmm
i believe its the cable. Im going to try to get a new one and see if it works, cuz the phone i got right now its a replacement that they sent me from the company, so its new and i dont think its the phones problem.And yes im trying to odin.
Can you take format the sd card from ths phone (make sure to back up all the important stuff.) Then take off the phone. Use the computer to put a different rom on the root. Flash the rom using cwm. Let the phone sit to build the cache. While it is building, uninstall the current drivers. Reboot. Then reinstall using the drivers from the bible. Put the phone in download mode and plug the usb into a different port. Lol, but try this after you get the new usb cable.

Have you tried APX mode?
I would try another PC, or get a new charging cable. It is possible for the USB cable to charge but not work for USB. Happened to me.
