I was on jh2. Flashed i9000. Flashed jh2 , but my splah screen has i9000. My about says jh2.
My biggest problem is I can't get into recovery using volume up and down and power buttons.
I was able nandroid to restore to previous rom successfully.
Any suggestions?
Edit.. Want to get back to jh2 without wiping my memory clear.

I was just wondering if anyone else lost three button recovery access when flashing back to eclair with odin 1 click. I had stock 2.2 and used odin to get to 2.1 and I got into recovery no problem, I put cognition 4.3 on. Then used odin again to go back to eclair and it went fine but after that I couldn't get into recovery with the three button method. I was just wondering if that happened to any one else and why it did that. I just like to go back to stock before I flash new roms and now I have to take extra steps to get CMR back on. Thanks and if I sound stupid sorry I am a noob

I just get replacement phone from Samsung
FW : 2.2
Baseband I897UCKB2
Build # : froyo.uckb2
I use Heimdall to restore back, noticed that is ROOTED e
install ROM MANAGER, and flush it with samsung captivate.
Now when I do the recovery and choose reinstall, to get to cwm menu, it is failing with some kind of signature error message.
please help
Easiest way is get sgs kernel flasher from market. Download a kernel with it baked in and flash it via kernel flasher. I use one of existz's kernel. Most modified kernels fix the 3e error.

that screen is becuase that is a gingerbread kernel, so gingerbread bootloaders are required for cwm to function.
either use heimdall to flash gingerbread boots, or flash a froyo kernel like speedmod...
There's a problem that I've came on while downgrading to stock 2.3.3 from MIUI 1.11.11 2.3.7 with CWM. I've wiped partillion chache and dalvik chache, installed rom XWJVH (it went correctly) rebooted, it stuck on booting screen. Restarted into download mode tried to install another kernel (cf-root 3.2 because it worked in past) and got fail in Odin.
Is my phone fully bricked? 'Cuz I can't get into CWM anymore.
HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!
If u can get into download mode, you will be fine. Just flash a full stock rom with odin.
If u still have no joy, flash eclair jm9 (from samfirmware.com), it will resurrect most fxxk ups.

Ok, let's try but on other combinations Odin said connecting after starting a process (tried 1.3, 1.7, 1.8 versions to flash 2.3.3 and 2.3.5, none worked) but whar if it will not work? What next, because on recovery it gives "black screen of death" as said in this topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Series
But at least download mode works.
P.S. I get modem and code files in jm9 download, which to put in pda? csc?
Is odin detecting your phone, yellow light?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
yes it detected.
AND YES its going now, I've put pit file in and it is working now!!!!!!!
PASSED in odin, booting up........ boot logo......... please boot up!
something wrong, boot logo loop.
flashed cf-root 4.3 and I hope for the best.
P.S. nooooooooo, boot loop again
P.P.S. thank you anyway, at least boot loop is easier to work on.
Have you tried jm9 yet?

I am a little bit confused, and you too...
To bring back to life your phone you have flashed jm9, eclaire....ok.
But why have you flashed a CF-root 4.3?
It's for JVS gingerbread rom.
Edit: If your 3 keys combo still works, try to flash a stock 2.3.x
If the problems happen while using MIUI, better you select eclair rom first. Then you can upgrade to GB that have bootloader.
From MIUI directly to gingerbread will have fuzzy screen problem.
Hi guys...
Recovered from a soft brick yesterday with one click Odin but now I can't seem to enter recovery anymore...
My firmware seems to be 2.1 update 1...
Do I need to update to gingerbread first? I haven't tried getting into download but what happens if I can't?
Tried about 20 times getting into recovery >_> Is it built into eclair?
Have you tried using ADB to enter recovery mode? Often the three button combo gets broken when flashing custom roms, or at least it has for me in the past
Sent from my AOKP icy-glitched Captivate via Tapatalk 2
Flashin the i897 Gingerbread Bootloaders will resolve the button combo issue.
(Be aware that there is always a risk when flashin bootloaders. Proceed with caution...and a reliable micro usb/usb cord and good connection, etc.)
!! Do not use the old "3 button fix" !!
U have been warned

Is adb included in sdk? That's on my mac so do I just connect the device to my mac and open terminal and type "adb reboot recovery"?
Should I try flashing the KK4 Gingerbread first? Or should I keep the 2.1 to get ROM Manager to easily install CWM?
All ur choice. It just depends on ur final destination.

Are the bootloaders the ones right at the bottom of this post?
Yep. I believe so. There is also a link within that OP post under the "Odin method..."
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
Not at home now but...my phone boots normal. Do you think that if I can't get into recovery I can't get into download mode? How do I force that?
After flashing the bootloaders do I flash an update.zip to get root and then install clockwork mod again using Odin? I don't want to brick again, if somebody would be so kind to link me to a good cwm link and a rooted rom link I would so appreciate it! Is the speedmod kernel under the "Odin method" rooted?
The "Guide..." by TRusselo that is a Stickied Thread in this Forum is the best to follow if u r going to flash a Dev's Rom.

To some this might sound stupid but I kind of 'Intentionally' deleted absolutely EVERHTING from my phone with CWM. I am really a noob at this stuff, i've been looking for threads explaining a fix (if there is one) but I haven't found anything. In case you're wondering, I deleted everything because I tried to flash a new rom and it just stayed with the one I was using previously, please help me out here.
When I turn on my Captivate it just stays on the AT&T boot screen.
ALSO: I can't go into CWM recovery, what can I do? Please help!
Simply flash an appropriate kernel through Heimdall/Odin. It's no big deal.

Ok, how do I know what the appropriate kernel is and how do I flash it?
As I said, I'm a noob at this stuff
EDIT: Ok so i've found a kernel and flashed it. The phone boots up but stays at a "Galaxy S SGH-i897" screen and it says samsung on the bottom, but that's it. I've tried flashing one of those one click odin from this thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843 but it stays at "setup connection" please help me out here, haha.

See the "Connection Issues..." stickied thread in the captivate general forum.

I mean an appropriate kernel depending on your current ROM, i.e. if you're on Gingerbread, flash corn, if ICS, flash semaphore.
And yeah the phone isn't going to boot past there because you wiped /system probably. Either flash a ROM through CWM or Odin.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA
Well thanks guys! I finally got it working. I ended up flashing a stock GB rom that i got from that thread. Since Odin didnt work ( ) i used Heimdall to flash gb 2.3.4
Thanks for the help!
