You CAN or CANT access download mode ? If you can, simply flash a stock ROM via ODIN.

Yes I can, I tried to downgrade to GB but it failed as well :/

I don't really clearly understood your issue.
But if you want to flash a Stock ICS Rom, start ODIN PC, start your SGNote in download mode (button volume down + home + power), then connect your SGNote to your PC and flash via ODIN PC.
If you don't know exactly how to use ODIN PC, check tutos on the forum.

When you say "it failed" you are going to have to be more specific. Please give us an error message. Did you get a NAND write start and factoryfs.img and it just freeze after that in Odin?

Reinstall your ADB/USB drivers, make sure you're using USB2.0 port - for me USB3.0 always results in failed flash, ultimately switch USB ports.

The file you download from dr. Ketan is a .rar file, unzip it once and you get a .tar file. Flash that file with Odin in pda section. So don`t unzip the .tar file again.

The problem was the ROM itself

To start with - you need root to flash this custom ROM, so unrooting your device was a mistake, you have to root it again.
Now, i've never flashed Criskelo's ROM, but from what i've read in the thread, you need to root your device, flash Chainfire's ICS repack via mobile odin, and then flash criskelo rom via CWM. Do not unpack the .zip file, you need to point CWM to that file.

When you boot into recovery, is it CWM recovery?
If you are talking about not seeing the CWM app, don't worry about that.

So you have to flash the CWM.zip file found in drketan's thread in android development.

[Q] How to install Clockwork mod Recovery on Samsung Captivate?

How to install Clockwork mod recovery on my rooted Samsung Captivate i897? Plz explain it in full detail if you can.

Use Odin3 v 1.83 or similar. Download a .tar file version of a kernel that is compatible with what firmware u r currently running (example: use KK4 Corn Kernel v7.0A if ur firmware is gb i897uckk4). Open Odin, select the PDA tab, navigate on ur pc to the .tar kernel, select it, connect ur phone to the pc in download mode and select Start. Done. Reboot into cwm recovery.
Or since u have Root...copy the .tar kernel to ur phone's internal sd and use SGS Kernel flasher from the Play Store. Done...again.
Fyi, Don't use Rom Manager---it doesn't play well with the Captivate.

Yeah, it installed an older version for me as well. Then, when I loaded the CyanogenMod 10 zip from sdcard, it updated ClockworkMod to latest, restarted, then I had to load it from zip again to complete installation.
Seems ClockworkMod is included in the CyanogenMod zip file and auto upgrades when it detects an old clockworkmod.

captivate won't boot after doing...

Got it back to it's original state....would like to update to 4.1.1 of someone call tell me the correct files to use?
Thanks
Hi, I did a search but wasn't able to find an answer...
This is what was running on my phone:
AT&T Samsung Captivate SGH-1897 Rooted
Android V/ 4.0.4
Baseband V/ I9000UGKG3
Kernel V 3.0.8-g2311908/[email protected] #1
Cyanogenmod V/9-20120819-nightly-captivatemid
I placed these three zip files on to the phone:
cm-10-20121118-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd.zip
gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
kernel_V10_4_2_15.zip
I use recovery cwm 6.0.1.2 and did a backup
I then use it to install "kernel_V10_4_2_15.zip" it FAILED so I then used recovery to install "cm-10-20121118-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd.zip" it FAILED
So, I use recovery to put the backup on...and it show cyanogen (mod) 9 FLASHING and would NOT boot.
I went back to recovery....did advanced restore and restored BOOT SUCCESSFUL
then I restored SYSTEM SUCCESS
then I did reboot
the cyanogen (mod) 9 FLASHING and will not go any further.
I was trying to update the phone to 4.1.1 and now have NOTHING...
Can anyone help and tell me what I have to do. I can still get into recovery cwm 6.0.1.2
Thanks will be watching for some help...:crying::fingers-crossed:

Have you tried getting in DL mode and flashing stock KK4?
I think that's your easiest/fastest solution.
From there, flash corn kernel to get root and flash the ROM you want as per their instructions.

I put the phone in DL mode and used:
i897uckk4 Odin One Click CONTAINS Bootloaders, Re-partition, Full Wipe.exe
I am now at stock....how can I get to 4.1.1? Any help here? Do I just put on the Cyanogenmon10 or do I have to do something else. I am very confused now...not rooted either

What button combo are you using to get in recovery?
Also, I would suggest to re-download Corn kernel and re-flash it.

You're simply not rooted. go in recovery and make sure root is enabled (assuming you flashed corn kernel that is).

Was Rooted...all is fine now...

Thanks for your response...I finally figured it all out!!!!!!!!!! My CWM was stock which is 3e recovery and requires signature verification....I had NOT use the corn kernel but flash some zip file that roots...don't remember the name. I then realized that it probably did NOT install CWM a newer version so I put the corn kernel on that would put on CWM that would work...Once I had the proper recovery on I was able to put my 4.0.4 back on and CMod9. Then nothing worked properly everything not working like Gmail Media something so I put on gapps the latest that didn't help. I put my TB on that didn't work well 5 failed....google mail would still not work and the something media kept giving a bad message...
I went into recovery and put on a recovery back up I had done 2 days ago and ALL is now WORKING great...
I still want to update to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean but the files I have don't work so I need to look around for a different ROM and ideas would help.
Thanks again for your time...

mate i had the same problem. no matter what i did i couldn't get kies to recognise my phone. You need to use odin and manually upgrade your phone to gingerbread. once you do that kies will work again. i can't remember where i found it but the instructions are in the forums somewhere. once you have done this it will be much easier to move forward with root etc... hope this helps.

Try to install Samsung Kies, do a Firmware upgrade (If possible) and then try the Odin (which version you have?) again... This way worked for me.

Maybe it's the USB cable?

Yes, try use cwm flashable zip I think it available on this forum, but I found mine on Google search. But forget link -_-! Sorry
