I need a stock flash for the latest OTA 2.2.1. I had that on my phone flashed a different ROM and messed around with some different kernals and noticed that now my WIFI stopped working on 4 different roms I tried.
I need the Stock ROM, Stock Kernal and Stock Baseband all in one... or links to them all so I can flash through SPRecovery. I cant even get ROM Manager since I need Wifi to get it.
Many many thanks....
I hope this fixes it..

Okay, I'm relatively new to Android phones in general, but recently purchased a captivate and absolutely love it. I upgraded to the unofficial leaked version of froyo and am now wanting to try out a custom rom. The issue I'm having is as follows:
I've read that before flashing a custom rom, it is recommended to flash back to the stock rom first. When I tried that, I flashed back to the stock rom (pre OTA update that fixed the 3 buttom recovery mode issue) and was not able to get into recovery mode. I then tried to do the ota update and it kept failing. I then flashed back to the leaked froyo rom via download mode and am basically stuck here. My question is two fold. Does anyone have a link to the stock rom file that has the latest update (I forget the version number) or can I just flash to a new custom rom from the leaked froyo build? Would that build be considered stock?

Don't flash back to stock unless absolutely necessary. Otherwise, it's pointless and just creates additional opportunities for things to mess up and brick your phone. Wiping your data and cache partitions with CWM recovery should be sufficient for a clean ROM install.
As for the stock ROM you're looking for, it depends on your Captivate. If your phone came with JF6 and working button combos, and is an older build (1009 or older), this should work fine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
If your button combos were disabled, either use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818439 -OR- the first link followed by installing the OTA update (be careful, as an incomplete OTA update can perma-brick your phone).
If your phone is a build 1010 or came with JH7, the stock ROM you need is JH2. Follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36
I had some issues with the phone (i9000t) not wanting to boot without being plugged in. They first appeared on Doc's ROM (just started one day. Had been working fine for weeks) and persisted even after flashing various stock 2.1 and 2.2 roms.
After I flashed the Gingerbread Beta(samfirmware), the problem went away. After that, I decided to try and flash a 2.2 rom again to see if it would work; it didn't. I'm not too thrilled about the amount of RAM that Gingerbread is using and my battery life is crap, so I'd like to go back to a Froyo rom, but I really don't want to deal with the phone not turning on.
Anyone know if it's possible to flash a Froyo ROM with the Gingerbread bootloader? Even better, anyone know of a fix for this bootloader issue?

I have bootloaders in my stash.
I have flashed them and there was no problem.
Link to my stash in my sig.
Flash a stock rom with Odin, 512 PIT + repartition.
When I have a problem I'm flashing JM9 (2.1 rom) back that way and everything works as intended after that and I can upgrade to any Froyo custom rom error free.
Works great with CM7 too.
Did the 2.2 ROM you flashed over the gingerbread beta have its own bootloader? If not, try flashing a 2.2 ROM that comes with a bootloader. Both XXJPU and ZSJPJ from samfirmware.com come with bootloaders. Try those first.
So I looked all around and could not find this specific question. I upgraded the wifes cappy to the AT&T Gingerbread KK4 release via Kies the other day. I found a thread to assist in rooting which went fine. But for the life of me i cannot find how to get cwm on this thing without changing the kernel. I used a file based cwm on the sdcard when it was froyo that i would flash for use when needed and it would revert back to stock 3e after rebooting, that exist for KK4? She's insisting I keep hers stock as she's worried about it bricking so I have to follow orders lol!
U can't do the update.zip to get cwm like in eclair days because of the 3e recovery. If u want cwm on kk4 u gotta at least flash a kk4 kernel with cwm baked in. I have been using Corn Kernel version 6.03 and it is excellent.
Why do u want cwm if she wants to keep it Stock ? To flash different modems... U can't flash mods etc. because it is stock and odexed...
Just curious.

So I can flash clock mods and such from the kitchen, unless of course KK4 doesn't allow it. It did allow on stock 2.2 and worked just fine without issue. My thing with flashing a different kernel is I don't want anything that's overclocked or such on her phone.
What you need to do is get a kernel with CWM already baked into it.
So start with this. Flash the Corn 7.03 kernel. I used it for the entire day today with a great experience. It was just released today as well. This kernel has CWM already in it and works great with the stock rom.
I also suggest flashing this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1358180 This is Trusselo's: 【stock】【kk4】 rooted deodexed debloated rom. Its basically a stock version of the rom with root already in it. It is missing a few ringtones but who really cares about that. Its also stripped out of the stuff that slows your phone down and paired with the kernel it makes for a much better experience on the captivate.
So if you want stock this is about as stock as it gets with a mix of high performance.
OK, so I ran through all the guides and searched through what feels like a thousand posts. Here's my problem. I want to flash ICSSGS. Every guide I've read says I need to flash back to stock 2.1. I'm currently on the UCKK4 GB update. I used ODIN one click to flash back to 2.1, but couldn't get into download mode using any method (excluding JIG). So I used Kies to upgrade back to UCKK4. I can now get into download mode again. Can I just flash the bootloaders and a custom kernel from GB instead of being on Froyo?
No need to flash the bootloaders, you have the gingerbread ones thanks to kies, they work worth EVERYTHING so you do not need to ever flash bootloaders again.aahs i digest you don't, Cause flashing those is the only tine you cab hard brick.
Flash corn kernel with Odin right now on gingerbread, then boot into recovery factory reset and format /system, and flash the ics ROM twice. Bingo bango you're done.
Thanks. I'm just switching from a Sony X10 so things are a little different here. Every guide said start at 2.1 so I didn't think i could flash from GB. I want to try ICS, but the X10 builds are still alphas.

Most of the guides on here are getting dated. But for the Captivate, once you have gingerbread bootloaders you can flash pretty much anything from anything. Exceptions would be Cyanogenmod.

some people have reported that gingerbread bootloaders work with Cyanogenmod
He meant flash from CyanogenMod or any other MTD ROM to BML ROM
Again, thanks for the info. Maybe I'll write an updated guide after I get accustomed to this phone and ODIN. Flashtool for the X10 definitely spoiled me.

I have successfully flashed about 10 roms while having gb boot loader they include 2-3 version of cm7, two version of miui rom , and many more gb boot loader can run any older or newer rom on captivate no need to downgrade bootloader
I'm a quick learner. I just switched over from a Sony X10 that was running a MIUI rom. My wife bought an iPhone so I took over her phone. I'm still learning the ins and outs of the captivate and how it works. I'm loving this phone. It's capable of so much more than the X10. I'm also loving this ICSSGS rom. It's smooth as butter.

Recently i have come across a puzzling bug when i flashed deodexed UK firmware S5830IXXLK3 (by Alucard1989PL) and was wondering if anyone else had come accross this,
I flash my phone via ODIN 3.07 to stock XXLK3 UK firmware as normal , this gives me stock kernel & ROM.
I fire up ODIN and flash either Rafael or Hells kernel (it doesnt matter which), reboot, check phone status and i have IMEI.
I root my phone via CWM next just to make sure and check that debug is ticked, reboot.
I then flash the S5830IXXLK3 deodexed ROM via CWM, no problem. When the phone boots i check the phone status and each time i have lost my IMEI number.
On all previous deodexed ROMS i have used i have never come accross this, could it be the latest firmware thats been deodexed or am i overlooking a simple detail here?
Any comments would be appreciated.

I haven't problem with IMEI. The deodexed rom has already root so i don't know why you installed root before you install my deodexed xxlk3 rom -_-" LOL. Try reflash rom with odin than my deodexed rom and at last custom kernel . . .

Hey Alu, i tried all methods but result is the same i lose IMEI number, not to worry for now i will try another deodexed. BTW any eta on when you will release 15 toggle for XXLK3? this will motivate me to try again.
Txs for the reply.

Hi Viprdxd, I have also just experienced this problem after flashing the same XXLK3 UK firmware and then flashing a custom deodexed ROM that I am currently building. My custom ROM is currently based on XXLI1 firmware and I thought there may be some incompatibility problem. However obviously you have flashed Alucard's XXLK3 deodexed ROM so it can't be that. You say its not a kernel issue either so at the moment I currently have very little idea what is causing this. I need to find out though to make my custom ROM compatible with all firmwares so I will be investigating this issue.
I'm just glad I got my IMEI back by reflashing the XXLK3 firmware with ODIN cause I've already permanently lost it once before when I was a bit of a noob and didn't have a backup or anything!

Yeah I know that feeling all to well when you see your IMEI number missing I'll keep playing around to see if I can find out why but my feeling is its an issue ROM side with XXLK3., Hey good luck with your ROM I'll defo check it out when its done.

Nice one thanks :good:
Edit: Sorry Actually I still can't figure this out, if I flash XXLK3 with ODIN, IMEI number is fine. If I install Rafael's kernel, nothing else, it disappears.
If I extract the XXLK3 ROM and flash it in recovery no problems, if I deodex it no problems, if I install custom kernels then IMEI dissappears.
Which leads me to the conclusion its a problem with custom kernels except for the fact that if I flash the ROM I'm building on stock kernel IMEI also dissappears!! So for now it remains a mystery!

I have concluded that its not a problem with XXLK3 or The custom Kernels as both work, let me explain, XXLK3 standard and deodexed on stock (came with package) kernel works as it should. Raf's or Hell's Kernel works fine on every other firmware.
It seems to be a problem of compatibility of the two maybe Samsung changed some small detail or a tweek is needed in the kernels or both? I don't know as I am not a dev.
