I tried to upgrade to the new 2.1 reoriented kernel and ended up with the Phone+Caution Sign+Computer symbol. Everytime I try to use the one click recovery it hangs at
Set PIT file..
DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
I have tried this many times, I am always in download mode before I bring up Odin and connect. The only way I can get into download mode now is to hold down the up and down volume and insert usb, then I disconnect usb, bring up odin, it connects and I press start and the above message is where it hangs..Have I bricked this device?

You have to open Odin first then put in download mode and plug in USB...

Thanks, that seems to have worked.
Mods, please delete this thread
Moved to Q&A and closed at op request
So i tried to use this guide to restore my phone to stock. I installed the correct drivers and the Odin3 One-Click Downloader. I tried to use method one but it wouldn't work and the random numbers and letters wouldn't pop up. So I restarted my computer and used the second method which booted the device into recovery mode.
Idk if this is important but the random numbers and letters were "0:[COM6]"
I didn't think it was right but once i saw those random numbers and letters pop up and the "start" button on Odin was clickable, I clicked it. My captivate has been siting connected to the computer for almost 2 hours nothing has happened. I am able to scroll up and down on my captivate in recovery.
But in Odin neither the "Start" button nor the "Master Clear" button is clickable.
Under the message box for Odin it says:
<ID:0/006> Added!!
<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..
<ID:0/006> File analysis..
It is essentially step 4 and it says "Do not unplug for any reasons." I am pretty much a starter with this stuff so I don't know how to go about this. I even tried to search for some answers but could not find them.
Any suggestions would really help me! What should I do? Should I scroll in the recovery mode for something? Should I unplug the phone? help pleasee
Unplug the phone, close odin, re open odin, boot phone into download mode, plug in phone odin should see it and then hit start.

Im going to try this now. Also, I have Phoenix unleashed 6.8 and when I hold the power button there is an option for download, is that okay to use?

That sounds okay. Just make sure usb is plugged in and odin is open before you select download. You should hear the usb disconnect as it reboots and when it comes back it should give you a com port in odin.

Well, it didn't do that. but random question: which USb bit should I have downloaded. I'm working with a MacBook Pro using VM fusion
when I just plugged in my phone not in download, it Odin found the phone. But when I put it into discovery, Odin lost it. Any suggestions?
Unistall drivers, reboot, reinstall, reboot. Try that.
Hello, I was going back to stock from 2.2, just like I used to do, opened the good old odin and hitted start. It beggan as usual, printed:
<ID:0/016> Added!!
<ID:0/016> Odin v.3 engine (ID:16)..
<ID:0/016> File analysis..
<ID:0/016> Set PIT file..
<ID:0/016> DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
and it is being there for the last 5 minutes...
should i restart odin, the phone and try to do it all over again? or is it to late and I should be preparing myself to unbrick my phone?
thx in advance
As long as it's not on boot.bin or sbl.bin you SHOULD be "safe" to disconnect, reboot your computer and try again.
You seem fine. As long as it doesn't say that it's installing sbl.bin and boot.bin (not sure baout the 2nd). You can unplug and restart.
If it freezes at one the 2 above and you unplug, you phone will be bricked and the only way back will be a JTAG (force bootloaders in).
I suggest you use a different usb port/cable and even restart your computer.
EDIT: Damn you Studa
mmm I took out the phone and now i think it is soft bricked now, phone ! computer, though i just managed to put it back in download mode by holding the volume buttons and plugging in the cable, now it is back on stock
thanks guys, I was getting scared

Lol!
there was a part in that other statement about "if the button combo is not working"...
thread tag! you're it!
Code:
Odin v.3 engine (ID:24)..
File analysis..
Set PIT file..
DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET!!
This is exactly the state of my ODIN window when I was attempting to flash JF6 from the current Continuum 5 ROM.
Now, I have a phone that does nothing. The power button, volume buttom combo doesnt work it seems. Would a JIG help instead? Any opinions.
I am scared
If your phone exhibits no signs of life at all, Then you need to jtag unbrick your phone...
If you get the phone-!-computer thing on boot, you could just build/buy a jig and force it into download mode

Your phone could be soft bricked. I has a similar issue. You need to get the phone into download mode. If you can not do this via 3 button combo, you will need a jig. You can search xda for instructions on building your own jig (faster), or simply buy one. It may be cheaper to buy one.

Thanks,
The update is - I can do into download mode by pressing the volume down key and power key.
It gets into the yellow download mode, but ODIN3 doesn't work. It now gets stuck at "File Analysis"
Make sure the chord is good, and that is plugged into the back of the pc, not a front usb port. If it's already in the back go ahead and switch ports (still on the back) restart your computer.

Its a laptop am using, restarted 10 times. installed samsung usb drivers. tried all the ports. DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET on the phone and the laptop screen.
some times the laptop doesn't even recognise the USB device
All this had happened while flashing the stock jf6 rom
just wondering, are you doing it in the exact order of
1- put phone in download mode - via vol down/power
2- open odin on computer
3- connect usb cable to phone
4- Start button
and when you say sometimes your computer does no recognize your phone, does it show up in the device manager as an unrecognized device or just do nothing at all? If it does nothing at all half the time, go invest in a new usb cable.
i'm not sure how to fix it. but if you had continuum and want to go back to stock, i read somewhere that you can't use Odin3 (something about bootloaders).
i would try to use odin 1.7 to flash GR/Continuum rom.
(but check it with others cause i'm quite newbie)
my #g is not working after Odin3
i'm currently using the canadian rogers version of this phones i used odin3 cuz my phone blanked out on me my phone works now but i'm recieving any 3G network , any reasons as to y and how i can fix it thanx

He can use Odin one click, not the Odin with the button fix. FYI everytime you use Odin one click back to stock 2.1 you're flashing your bootloaders. The problem with the button fix is it only flashes the secondary bootloader leaving the primary bootloader untouched. This is only a problem if you've updated to the.GB bootloaders because you cannot mix Eclair/Froyo bootloader with a Gingerbread bootloader.

Hi people,
I have just got a Galaxy Tab just for kicks. It's a P1000L brazilian one.
I want to unbrand it (it's Claro branded, the operator took out Gmail and Gtalk, also assigned search to Yahoo instead of Google), so I have talked to a friend which also has a Galaxy Tab, same model, but unbranded, all Google apps inside.
My FW is (or was ) P1000LVJJJ4, and his FW is P1000LVJJM9, so I went to this thread at TheGalaxyTabForum, downloaded the P1000LVJJM9 FW, PIT file and ODIN 1.3.
http://www.thegalaxytabforum.com/index.php?/topic/112-samsung-galaxy-tab-firmware-list/
I have read about the process and started doing it. Here's what happened.
I haven't checked the partition option, just put the PIT file and the FW file in the correct fields, put my Tab in download mode, clicked start... and after some time, almost at the end, ODIN failed. My Tab got stuck in download mode, yellow triangle. I got it disconnected from the USB cable, than put it again. Restarted the process, but ODIN got stuck in setup connection.
I took my Tab off the usb cable again, it was still stuck in download mode, yellow triangle. Pressed the power button for a while, it has turned off completely. Now it's bricked, maybe dead. No life signal, nothing happens when I press any button or button combination, nothing is shown when connected to the charger or USB, not recognized in KIES and ODIN, nothing at all.
Is there any hope for me? What can I do to solve this?
i have the same problem, did u get any solution???
Hmm, if nothing happens on screen at all either when you plug it in or hold the power button, that's very bad...
Otherwise, I think the most you can do is either let it charge for I think a few hours and then see what happens
volume down + power
Tab will not respond but plug it in the pc anyway, odin will normally recognize it even without the "android shoveling" screen.

I have the ATT Galaxy S5 that was 4.4.4, but I disliked the update so I figured I should downgrade to stock 4.4.2 1ANCE. Through the process I thought it would be fine but on startup after the downgrade flash was done, the boot loads up to the samsung logo and freezes there. I need major help!!

Use this to correctly return to NCE:
Flashing the G900A_Downgrade_to_NCE.tar using Odin's PDA slot(AP in Odin v3.09+)
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23622183712464416
Just boot your phone into download mode, Vol-Down + Home+Power then extract and flash the above file.
It didnt work?

So, I followed the instructions, It showed me an error like this
<ID:0/005> SetupConnection..
<ID:0/005> Can't open the serial(COM) port.
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)
Your phone is in download mode? You had to hit vol-up to bypass the warning screen when putting it there? Also, do you have the correct drivers installed on your system?
