[Q] Forgot to diable lagfix and tried to flash Stock - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Flashing with one-clock started, it said that setting up .pit file and then averything stopped.
I was waiting for 20 minutes it didn't finish flashing.
When I turned phone on I saw phone-comp logo.
Went back to Download mode, got 512.pit file, opened odin and tried to do repartition. same result.
HELP PLZ!

With odin open and your usb cable ready to plug in take out the battery from your phone. Then put it back in. Then very quickly hold the both volume buttons down and plug the usb cable in. You will enter download mode and odin will recognize it.
Quick suggestion. Use odin one click to flash back to stock and do a master clear or you will continue having issues.

I did the same the other day. Blamed the tiredness. To repair I flashed jpo with odin with 512 pit, pda, phone and csc files and re partition ticked. Then updated to jpy, installed custom kernel and away you go.
If you're going to flash with pit files and re partition you must also have the pda, phone and csc files. Or so I read. Worked for me anyway. As long as you have three button recovery and can access download mode you'll be fine.

Stuck at Galaxy S logo!

Guys... I´m in trouble... I´m on JPM and flashed CF-Root-JPM-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1 but my phone was taking too long, like more than 20min at Galaxy S boot. I knew something did go wrong, removed the battery and I entered download mode again and re-flashed... Same thing! My phone is not getting past Galaxy S boot up picture!! I can't enter recovery mode but can enter download mode! Is there anything I can do to bring my phone back to life?! PLEASE HELP ME!
I already tried to flash new roms in odin. My device is recognized but odin hangs and does nothing...
I need some advice on this, did I kill a new phone?! I´m scared
Please Help!
- UPDATE: SOLVED!
Hi there, I'm having the same problem on my I9000B. Please help me.
This is my story, I had upgraded my 2.1 firmware to VIVO's 2.2 Froyo via KIES with the Kies Registry Patcher (used ZVV). Everything worked perfectly, but I wanted to root my I9000B so I made the terrible mistake of using CF-Root via Odin, (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108) following the exact instructions. The kernel replacement (zImage file) was for the I9000 so I had the touchscreen problems. When the phone booted showed Samsung galaxy S GT-I9000B and then inmeadeatly the "B" dissapeared.
Because of my n000bness I tried to use the zImage file from this ROM (VIVO's) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=858483), by downloading my own .tar created file (with 7-zip) of the zImage file. Here is were things went down. I got the android - USB cable boot icon. I could not go into recovery mode but I could do download mode, so I re-flashed VIVO's ROM (the one published here) with Odin:
I used the 803 .pit file, Odin 1.3
I did not check re-partition
I selected the ROM as the PDA file and I left PHONE and CSC blank.
the ROM was downloaded to the phone and Odin did not gave me problems.
My problem here is that I get the black screen with vibrations from time to time on boot. This is exactly what happens:
The phone starts showing "Samsung galaxy S.... GT I9000B (at least shows "B")
I can get into recovery mode but the following appears:
Code:
update media, please wait
E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10
(Invalid argument)
E:copy_dbdata_media:Can't mount DBDATA:
your storage not prepared yet, please us UI menu for format and reboot actions.
copy default media content failed.
Then I did a factory reset, succesfully completed, tried again flashing the ROM but with Re-partition box checked (as instructed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=723596) but the same stuff happens.
Please tell me what to do! I know it was a stupid mistake trying to fix ony the zImage file, and stupider was using CF-Root on my non-compatible device.
PS: I can get into download mode with no problems
Code:
pda i9000bvjjpa
phone i9000bvjjpa
csc i9000bzwjp3
I have exactly the same problem
but i can go into recovery mode and download mode.
the galaxy screen is I9000 and my sgs is I9000B
any ideas?
A friend of mine has the same issue on his SGS. Both recovery and download mode working.
Have you done JUST like this:

1. Enter your phone in dl-mode, but don't connect yet.
2. Open Odin, tag re-partition, auto reboot and f.reset time, make sure efs clear and bootloader -fields are NOT checked. select CORRECT PIT-file (2.1 ROMS usually 512, 2.2 ROMs many times 803, samfirmware always tells which one to use next to the dl-link of a ROM-file), enter your phone in dl-mode, plug, wait it to be recognized by Odin.
3. Click start, wait until Odin shows PASSED, unplug your phone, remove the battery for 30 seconds, enter dl-mode again, don't plug just yet.
4. In Odin, click Reset. Then select PDA, Modem and CSC files compatible with the PIT-file used in re-partition, plug your phone, make sure re-partition NOT checked and no PIT-file selected (once again, make sure you use correct PDA for the PIT you flashed). auto-reboot and f.res.time should be selected. Make sure efs clear and bootloader -fields are NOT checked.
4- Plug your phone and when recognized, click start. Wait to be passed. Now your phone will boot (or if not, boot manually) and should work just fine.
Edit: Try to put Eclair ROM, for example JM2, not jpa, and see if it works better.
Thanks!!
Sir, you have saved my phone and my whole week. This is what I did:
With this method I tried the Vivo Brazil's 2.2 Rom again and did not work, same error, tried using both 803 and 512 pit files.
Then I downloaded an 2.1 firmware (JG9, which was the same that came with the new phone) from Claro Brazil that I found on google and flashed it with the 512 pit and worked perfectly. I had been strugling with this problem the las 6 hours and solving this was urgent because I'm going to vacation now.
Now I can re-update via Kies and return to Froyo were everything worked.
I will not try to do things like this in such a risky way (risky because I don't know)
Thank you very much.

Well, the good news is that it appears that the "E:Can't mount /dev/block/stl10" error msg can be resolved.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788850
This thread discussed this specific error message. For some reason, they're claiming that flashing JPC with 512 pit and repartition checked is doing the trick. I'm assuming this will result in data loss but I guess that's better than losing the phone entirely You should be able to flash to whatever firmware you want afterwards (assuming it works).
JPC:

Pass = samfirmware.com
512 PIT

Report back if this works for you.
Please, post the link or give me directions for the Claro's ROM. I am having the same problem here.
Thanks.

???I bought my Phone from CSpire but stuck on At&t Logo???
Samsung Galaxy s Showcase stuck on the At&t Logo...Will not let me go into Download mode??? Help please?

Help help help

I did an Odin wipe and now the touch isnt working on my phone!! What do I DO!? Its stock so it goes straight to MTP transfer instead of debugging and I cant change it. PLEASE HELP.
What do you mean the touch? Give more details
Alright, well I was having problems with dig11fs rom so I decided I wanted to install serendepity 5.0. I plug in my phone, run odin and go into download mode. Once in download mode I press start and it goes through and does the factory reset of my phone. My phone turns on and the "swipe screen to unlock" screen comes up. I try to swipe it and nothing. I try going back to download mode and maybe running odin again. Not working. I try different things but overall my touch screen isnt working at all. I went to recovery and deleted user and cache thinking maybe something will work. Phone boots back up and still nothing. I can't do anything cuz I cant get to usb debugging without being able to use the touchscreen.
I just did a master clear with odin and still my touch screen isnt responding! The buttons are working fine but the touch screen is not.
This is a new one.
Pull battery or for a couple minutes. Then try again
what is the build of your phone, located under battery, something like 1008
I think you are in store for a jig
It says 10.08 on the white sticker under my battery.
Have you used odin before, what its the name of the odin file you used?
I have used odin a few times before. Not a problem. I tried the battery pull, nothing.
I used the newest odin "I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0.zip" I just downloaded it about an hour ago.
Good news is that you are on stock, so if need be call at&t and file warranty claim. You said matter clear went through correct/
Have you had problems with three button combo in the past?
Do you know what a jig is?
I can get to download mode no problem with the 3 button method. Thats not the problem and I have ideas of what a jig is but if it can help me right at this moment i would appreciate the information.
You can still.get into dl mode?
Have you tried odin flash more then once

A jig wont help, if you can get to download mode you don't need a jig. this sounds like a bad flash, try flashing stock again.
Yes I can get into dl mode and I tried twice so far.
I actually have a charger in my house that will disable the touch screen. I once made the mistake of trying to flash using CWM while my phone was plugged up to that charger and when everything booted back up my touch screen was disabled completely. I was able to Odin back to stock and reflash everything.

Go find the post for the Stock rom with the 3 button fix and the ODIN that is not one click and use that. the one click downloader does strange things sometimes. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THAT POST COMPLETELY BEFORE FLASHING.
This one.
1. Download ODIN and the PIT file and extract it somewhere.
2. Download the PDA file and put it in the directory where you extracted ODIN and PIT to.
3. open ODIN and click the PIT button and choose the PIT file that came with it.
4. click on the PDA Button and choose the PDA.tar that you downloaded from the post.
5. power off your phone completely.
6.Hold down vol up and vol down and plug in the cable.
7. Click start.
So i tried using a different charger, nothing. I'm trying to run the not one click odin.

EZODIN hanged on Download mode! Set up everything correctly. Wat do?

I was on Darkys 10.1 EE
I made sure voodoolagfix is off. I reset the phone to factory.
I wanted to move to the latest MIUI so I begun by flashing to EZrom by following these instructions.
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/ezbase-ezrom-for-android-2-2-install-revert-back/
I download all files proplery (using flashget)
selected the files using instructions.
Hit start, and nothing happening. Been like this for 15 min.

Should I turn of teh phone and try again or, while I am in download more try reflash 10.1 so as to not brick the phone?
EDIT: FFS phone is bricked. It is displaying the Phone ! Computer logo
sigh..now what?
Remove and reinsert your battery after some time. Don't turn your phone on. Directly use the 3 button combo to enter download mode. Connect USB cable. Flash new firmware using ODIN. Avoid EZOdin.
Did that, GOt back to Darkys again.
Do how do I flash a froyo 2.2 Base without EzOdin
I meant avoid EZOdin, use regular ODIN. On the safe side, use the newer ODIN3 1.82 or the trusty old ODIN3 1.31

[Problem] Odin stuck on factoryfs.rfs

I have found a few other user with this problem but none of the solutions seem to work.
Odin gets stuck at factoryfs.rfs
I can get into download mode
I could get the phone into CWM but couldn't seem to select any zip files. Now I can't even get in there...
I formatted cache, data, and system before trying to flash (I think this was the cause)
Any ideas of how I can get the phone to work again?
As far as you are able to access the download mode, you are in the safe side
It happened to me once with Odin not to finish sucessfully the flash, I have just repeated the operation and it worked.
This is why people are now using Heimdall, it is more reliable.
remove the battery
re-insert and see if you can get it to re-charge (odin drags if your battery is near 50%)
if you can let it re-charge for an hour or so and then go back into odin, this time reflash a stock firmware but don't tick re-partition
had this situation once before and this worked for me
also check your usb connection, a loose cable can also be a factor
This generally happens when you are updating your bootloaders! And bte odin is still the best! Heimdall is not good!

[Q] Samsung Captivate doesnt boot up

Hi, I was trying to flash my phone using ODIN software,
This is what I did,
Opened ODIN Software in Admin mode in WIN 7
Used PDA option in the ODIN and referenced CORN KERNEL Tar file
Got the success message as well
After this was done, the phone comes up with the AT&T logo and next screen is distorted and boots up again and again
I was trying to restore but, the after I use the VOL+, VOL- and Power button, i do not see the options which i used to get earlier.
Could anyone please let me know what needs to be done to fix this?
Go here...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18370912 and use the KK4 One Click (Odin or Heimdall) "With" Bootloaders. After successful flash of KK4, then u can flash KK4 Corn Kernel through regular Odin.
