DID I JUST BRICK MY PHONE??
tried flashing the i9000 rom... got messed up sometime after flashing csc and pda.... now i can boot to recovery menu and get odin to recognize but im getting an error
copy_multi_carrier from: ATT
multicsc : can not acces to /system/csc/ATT/system/
copy_common_data
then it stalls.. my power button doesnt work to reboot system now...
Even though odin recognizes i hit start and nothing happens..
can anyone help.. i will donate and make it worth your time..
No you didn't brick your phone, you need to follow the I9000 guide in the stickied threads. You need to load a Captivate kernel before fully rebooting your phone.
First off get your phone back into download mode. Pull battery and usb cable, restart Odin, then follow this method to get you into download mode, put in battery, hold down both volume buttons, keep holding them and plug in the USB cable.
First when you flash a I9000 rom make sure you uncheck autoreboot on Odin.
When this done when you flash the Rom it will say Restet in Odin. At that time pull your battery and USB cable.
Restart Odin and load the Captivate kernel. Put you battery in, hold both volume buttons, keep them held and plug in the USB cable, should go into download mode. Start Odin, and it should be fine to let it autoreboot.
I missed something it will be in the stickied thread.

can you clear something up is Android System Recovery the same as download mode??
ok this thread can be deleted.. im a noob.. kjpdx throw me a link to donate.. i figured it out by myself but atleast you replied..
Two different modes. Download mode shows an Android holding a shovel and Recovery mode is where you would install update.zips.
Needs to be in Download mode when installing roms and kernels with Odin.

Hi:
I have the same problem of my Galaxy S. It is stuck in this screen saying
copy_multi_carrier from: ATT
multicsc : can not access to /system/csc/ATT/system/
etc. etc.
I boot it to the download mode as instruction, but the Kies always shows connecting device, and it never gets connected. The Odin shows no com port or device for me to load the firmware. Can anyone help? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks! I couldn't get download mode and this is the only thread online to help. I received this error when trying to install the voodoo lagfix while running cognition 2.2 beta 7. (for some reason, my cognition did not have the lagfix built in)

That reason is that voodoo doesn't work with 2.2
For the sake of your wallet, I would read the threads more carefully before flashing new roms if I were you. I'm not trying to be a ****, but this issue was addressed many times in the cognition thread. I'm all for learning from others on this forum after they make the mistakes
Couldn't find a clear post on this just this issue, but may have missed it.
If it's going to work, about how long should I expect it to take?
It will take 2 minutes or less. Your phone wasn't in download mode was it?
I'm having the same problem. I wasnt in download mode. it stayed on download mode for one hour
Just to be clear: When using Odin3 One-Click to flash back to a stock ROM, you put your phone in download mode (1. Opening Odin, 2. turning off phone, 3. Holding the vol up/down keys, and plugging in USB cabl3 4. Press start on Odin3). You will see the yellow android ditch digger if you do it right. That's download mode.
For Master Clear, you open Odin3, mount your phone to the computer using the Select to copy files option in notification window (USB debugging must be on, USB cable connected), and then click Master Clear. You do not go into download mode for Master Clear.
If you see the Yellow ditch digger when trying to do Master Clear then nothing will happen. Unplug, remove battery, start over.
Dumb question, do I need to be rooted?

I found this to be close but not quite on the spot. At least not based on how I interpreted it.
What I had to do was:
Put in Debugging mode
Load Odin (You may need to try different ones to find one that offers Master Clear. I used the one that comes wiht the 1Click downloader to get back to stock
I plugged the phone into the USB cable
I clicked Master clear
The above is assuming that you have installed the Samsung drivers on your PC.
Root is not needed, I don't think. (I had it, but I don't think it was needed).
hi friend
could you please tell me what dose it mean by OP in the title ? How long does it take to be a senior member? Does it matter with time online? I know that 100+post can be a senior .
thanks a lot
OP stands for original post. Yes 100 post makes your member status senior but I do not know if they have a time based member status.
Also it is not polite to hijack someone elses thread.

I'm having the same Issue ,, after the Odin flash STOCK KH3 I'm having display freezing on startup and on camera mode.. I'm trying to do a master clear .. but it stucks on Master Clear Started???!?!? How to solve this??
First of all, nice work. Looking forward to 4.5. This was my first custom ROM install, so I have a few questions.
1. I didn't notice the auto-lagfix being applied when I installed. I am getting a quadrant score of about 1060 and it seems most people are getting much higher. Not that I am experiencing a lag, but just curious.
2. I am guessing I should start over when 4.5 comes out. I didn't try anything different than what came with it.
3. I love the orange theme, but would prefer the stock phone dialer buttons. How would I change that?
4. I did notice some issues with internet connectivity using the modem and not wifi. I shouldn't need to enable roaming, right? GSM only should work too? Why would WCDMA even be an option? Is GPRS an option or is it 3G only?
Thanks.

I think Adam usually provides a statement whether or not you can flash 4.5 over 4.1 or whether one requires a wipe, flash to stock, and fresh install. I'm hoping 4.5 can be flashed over 4.1. Unfortunately, I don't have any answers for your other questions.

I was wondering about that myself. I couldn't find the voodoo folder that is supposed to exist to disable/enable lagfix. Any body have any ideas if the lag fix is actually installed with 4.1 or if there is other work required?
It seems to be just fine without it. That makes upgrades alot easier.I hear the folks who have official 2.2.1 overseas don't use a lagfix anymore.
Phoenix is based on 2.2.1 jpy.
As for the lagfix questions, with the included kernel you need to boot into recovery and choose advanced ulk, then enable/disable there.
thanks. ill try that later. looks like a new version of the market and google music might be announced tomorrow.

Went through these steps and it appears to be working just fine. Thanks. So if I need to disable lag fix, I have to go back into recovery and not create the disable-lagfix folder like on the www.phoenix-hq.com FAQs?
Just tried it too. works like a charm and boosted quadrant up to 1300. Yeah I imagine that you(we) have to remember to disable it to flash another ROM.
So flashing the browser fix just involves copying the zip to the sd, renaming it update.zip, and use recovery to apply the update?
You don't need to rename the browser fix zip, or any for that matter. Just reboot into recovery and flash the fix by selecting it just as you do for a rom.

It looks like Adam and Xtreem haven't updated the website's FAQ section in a while. The first versions of Phoenix-Rising used DG's Firebird kernel, which used voodoo lagfix. Creating a file/folder named "disable-lagifx" to disable your lagfix only applies to voodoo lagfix. The lagfix on hardcore's kernel (which is the stock kernel used on both of Adam's roms) uses the ultimate lagfix configuration, which is controlled entirely through the recovery menu. Voodoo and ULF are similar to one another, but the user configuration processes are different.
If you need to reflash something, disable the lagfix first by booting into recovery, and follow the same steps you used to enable the lagfix and just select disable instead. However it is best to flash back to stock first before flashing a new rom, so yea, I would recommend starting over when you're ready to install 4.5
Changing the dialer is not all that complicated. Head over to the Phoenix/Firefly themes thread, you can find a bunch of different flashable dialers over there. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=896339 Zelendel just finished a few new ones that have the stock button configurations in place. You'll have to look for that post, its somewhere near the last 1/3 of the thread.
quick question ( I would search but its broke, and i cant post in the phoenix thread until i have 10 posts)
Presuming its cool to flash this over 4.1, my brother did it with no problems, i just need to know if i should check backup rom or clear and wipe data in rom manager when i flash from sd card
New to the android stuff, but the first rom i tried to flash it locked up while installing it, he then told me just to flash straight from rom manager, worked great, so im going to try that
Thanks, i asked him but hes sleeping lol
I have the pheonix 4.1 rom. I noticed that using the power button it allows you to choose download mode. If I open odin one click and go into download mode this way will I be able to flash back stock or will I get stuck in file analyzing? I'm a little afraid to try because I don't know if I can leave download mode w/o bricking it. It's a miracle that I got it unbricked when I flashed the first time.

Yes, push and hold the power button gives you the extended power menu. Flight mode, Power off, Reboot, Recovery and Download. I've written some detailed instructions on how to flash back to stock JF6 and Master clear. Which I recommend doing when changing ROM's
Flash to Stock JF6:
1. Download Odin One Click from: http://www.mediafire.com/?0w2y31maz8mdom4
2. Download your Windows Drivers from:
Windows 64bit: http://www.mediafire.com/?3dh4d6up72me9re
Windows 32bit: http://www.mediafire.com/?0b45zo7o75rc5d5
3. Make sure your USB cable is connected directly to the back of your computer, not a USB hub or to a front connection and all of your drivers have been properly installed
4. Do not connect your USB cable yet.
5. On your phone, go to ; Settings/Applications/Development/and check “USB Debugging”
6. Turn your phone off
7. Remove your SIM card and Micro SD if you have one
8. Open Odin One Click
9. On your phone, press and hold the Volume up and the Volume down buttons. Do not touch the power button. If you have a ROM that supports a extended power menu, just press and hold the power button until the extended power menu comes up
10. While holding them, or after you select DOWNLOAD mode, insert your USB cable, wait for a couple of seconds and a yellow triangle with the Android figure will show up
11. You’ll see in Odin, that your phone has been discovered
12. Press “Start”
13. ***VERY IMPORTANT*** Do Not mess with your phone at all. If you lose your USB connection, you could brick your device, and will possibly have to make a jig
14. When it is done, your phone will reboot and Odin will display “Removed”
15. Unplug your USB cable from your phone
16. If you are proceeding to Master clear, you must close Odin BEFORE Master Clear
Master Clear:
1. Ensure you have backed up all of your information onto your Micro SD or your desktop BEFORE doing this. IT WILL ERASE EVERYTHING ON YOUR INTERNAL SD!!
2. Make sure to remove your SIM and Micro SD if you have one
3. With your USB cable disconnected from your phone, open Odin One Click
4. On your phone, go to ; Settings/Applications/Development/and check “USB Debugging”
5. Connect your USB cable to your phone
6. You’ll see in Odin, that your phone has been discovered
7. Click “Master Clear”
8. When the Master Clear has completed, your phone will reboot
9. The phone is now as it was when it came from the factory

do not rename the file to update.zip, that name is used by recovery. just use the name as it is.

That will take you back to 2.1 JF6 you'd have to use I897UCJH7 - OTA System, Kernel, Modem - Clockwork Flashable - Rooted to get back to JH7 or 2.1.1.
Or you can always use the one click to go back to JF6 and then use Kies Mini to get to KB1 which would be the newest stock.

Indeed... But either way, as long as it's not rooted, it should be acceptable I would assume.
I would just flash back to Eclair 2.1 (I897UCJF6) with Odin one click, leave it as is and hand it over to them. I don't think they are concerned about it being up to date or anything. I would just try to ensure that you don't flash to a ROM that is rooted.
I'm not sure how in-depth they inspect the devices when trading in for a newer device and what not so, which ever works I suppose.
Prior to sending back they ask what fw - I think you have to be on KB1 when you're sending back.
They just asked me today if I'm on KB1 as they assume that fixes most of the issues.
So got to odin to stock, then kies to KB1...

that's the way I understand it...but I haven't ever used Odin, I use Heimdall.
I went from the OTA Eclair update version to the package above... first boot was torture... there were a couple of glitches. Quickoffice needed a reinstall of the .apk to fix a broken Icon and my about phone said firmware unknown until after my second boot. other than that it was smooth sailing to a battery draining life of Froyo.
Hmm, heimdall or odin(3?)
basically I have a captivate, i had used ryan's oneclicklagfix (which included going into 'download mode' (3 button press) and switching the 'rom' and then rebooting and such. even with the uninstaller, i'm not sure (i likely didn't) get rid of the base rom that i changed.
so in order to put on froyo, i think i should flash back using heimdall or odin (which is easier/less likely to screw up) rather than just going with kies/minikies froyo update.
then use minikies/kies to update up to current.
any reason not to (besides a bunch of people with froyo errors?

Hi,
I have a situation here: How can I force my phone to stop trying to download a non-existent file if I cannot get past the password screen?
I was reviewing old downloads on my Captivate and instead of clearing the list I accidentally restarted a 0KB download that had previously failed over a year ago. I cannot recall what the app was but it was from xda-developers to my phone. I am running a rooted, stock Gingerbread phone that does have CWMod installed.
I have not been able to stop the download, turn off my phone, or use my phone since the download restarted about 8 hours ago. (I noticed when it was too late to do anything that the download size is 0 KB.) The Download icon (Green arrow pointing down) just blinks and blinks but nothing is downloading. All other standard icons are displayed normally (Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G, Battery, Time). I am unable to power off the phone using the Power Button. I have to pull the battery. I have tried:
1) Pull battery to force reboot the phone. Reinstall battery. Power On. --- This did not work. Phone reboots to password pattern entry screen and resumes the download during the media scanning portion of boot before I can enter my password. (I can outline the pattern but never get past that point.) Cannot power off the phone using the Power button.
2) Pull battery, replace battery. Use 3-button CWM boot to recovery. Got to recovery screen. Scrolled up and down to make sure I was really there and then settled on "reboot system now" from the "Android system recovery <3e>" screen. Rebooted and failed at same point as above in #1.
3) Pull battery, remove External SD card, replace battery, Power On --- This did not work. Same as above in #1.
4) I am currently waiting for the battery to die just to see if that makes any difference.
I have not modified the phone in any way except to root it and install some apps (CWM, Battery Recalibration, etc.) that were not available in the market. I am fairly sure that CWM Backup contains a complete back-up of everything, but I do not want to screw anything else up by selecting "apply update from sdcard" (assuming that will just reinstall all my original software - sorry, this may be obvious to everyone else here.)
I have no idea what else to try and would be extremely grateful for any suggestions.

Wow, first time I hear about this. What exactly triggered the download?
My guess is that uninstalling w/e triggered it might fix your problem. Otherwise, I'm really not sure other than Odin KK4 but should be able to fix it without it.

4-2ndtwin, Thank you very much for your prompt reply. I had found your links last night and downloaded the 1-click back to i897uckk4 with no bootloaders.
When I saw your reply I put my phone in Download Mode using [Vol+]+[Vol-]+[Plug in micro-USB cable]. So, I was at the "Digging Android screen" that shows "Downloading.... Do not turn off Target!!!!!"
I then started the Odin 1-click and my PC did not recognize my phone. I left Odin 1-click running, unplugged my phone from the microUSB and then plugged it back in. Phone came up in Odin as: Yellow Background "0:[COM7]". I clicked START. Odin executed as follows:
<ID:0/007> Added!!
<ID:0/007> Odin v.3 engine (ID:7)..
<ID:0/007> File analysis..
<ID:0/007> SetupConnection..
And, it does not appear to be doing anything. Phone remains on Downloading....
Please advise further. How should I go about starting this over?

Basically...u need to unplug ur phone from the pc, close Odin, open Odin, use a usb port in the back of the pc (not a hub), pull battery on ur phone, replace it and cover, plug in ur phone in download mode. Start Odin. If still a no go, u may need to try a different micro usb/usb cable.

4-2ndtwin - Thank You!!!!!
I did get the 'bad looking' 'phone icon - ! - computer icon' but i clicked START as instructed and the process completed! Everything is now working. I did not realize what a painful process restoring all my apps would be. Fortunately I have Titanium Back-up Pro installed. I am wondering, though, if there is some app that caused this mess to begin with.
I truly appreciate your helpful approach and guidance! Very nice!
Best regards,
John
Good deal ! Glad u got it goin.
As far as what caused it... ?? don't know. Looked just like some bad/corrupted download, especially since it was 0kb data in it.
Hopefully u won't have that problem again. :thumbup:

4-2ndtwin,
One more question - sorry to bother you so much:
I had been rooted prior to this process, but now SuperOneClick 2.3.3 just hangs on my i897 with Stock Gingerbread 2.3.5 UCKK4. Is my phone unrootable with KK4. I saw the thread "Rooting I897 2.3.5 stock" and the kernel you posted in #10 Reply, but isn't there a way to root the stock 2.3.5 UCKK4?
Thanks again for your help. This was easier on FROYO. Without root privs my Titanium Backup is not doing me any good as I can't recover anything without root rights.
This... [Utility] KK4 Easy Root
Or simply Odin flash the KK4 Corn Kernel version 7.0A , afterwards reboot into the cwm recovery. Option is there to gain Root access.
