you must be able to put your phonw in download mode. but I think it is brick you might have some trouble doin it. Theres a thread about where you can buy a
item to put your phone into download mode if you cant do it. normally search for it
You need to download DesignGears's Odin3 one-click downloaded and drivers.

If you want help, be more specific. Do you have an American or Canadian Captivate? Which build number is your phone; it is behind the battery and it will say 1006, 1007... If your phone is prior to Build 1010 you can use Odin 1 click to Stock JF6. 1010 and later will need to use a different build. If you have a Canadian Captivate you will need to find the thread that talks about Canadian files. The info is easily found if you just SEARCH! I hope I have helped you enough to find the info you need, which is already in the forums.
Thanks alot! I got her into download mode, now downloading the .jar and .pit
Its American, and shes in Download mode, so im not sure if its 1010 but im going to run the normal Odin with the .pit and .tar, thanks tho!
flashman2002, good answer, thanks
you may need this if you brick your phone again ...

especially if your build number is 1010 or later, since their key combo is disabled by default.

Hey guys, i just screwed up my galaxy s using odin. I was trying to upgrade my firmware from 2.2 to 2.2.1(in fact I recently upgraded from 2.1 to 2.2) when my phone went dead.
Now that i turn it on by holding down vol-up + home + power, all i get is this message:
RST_STAT =0x1
PMIC_IRQ1 =0x3c
PMIC_IRQ2 =0x0
PMIC_IRQ3 =0x0
PMIC_IRQ4 =0x0
PMIC_STATUS1 =0xc0
PMIC_STATUS2 =ox2c
*
I would appreciate your help and time spent in giving me some tips or better yet solutions to solve this issue. Thanks.
More info: Any customization ie. rooted, lagfixed, custom roms?
I used s1_odin_20100512.pit after that my phone turned off giving me the messages i just explained.
Not that familiar with 2.2.1, but I would make the assertion that you should not be using PIT files to ROM flash unless you need to change the partitions. You should be using PDA files. You will probably need to search for the proper PIT and PDA files for stock 2.1 or 2.2 and flash those. Are you able to see the phone via ODIN?
Exactly what kind of phone do you have. Is it a captivate or I9000?

search odin 1 click
and go back to stock
you should still be able to get to DL mode
It doesn't even load on odin nor my computer can recognize the device.
i have a captivate I9000. I think the problem should have caused it that when i started odin i clicked the re-partition box.

Ok well the captivate is not an i9000 it is an i897, so you are in the wrong place. Also might be why if you used odin files set for the wrong device. I would look into getting a jig.
it is an i897. However, after upgrading to 2.2 and rebooting the phone, i would see a screen saying that it was an i9000. So what you think is that i installed the wrong adin files? great!!
what does a jig would do to my phone?

How did you update to 2.2? if you used the new update you would not have gotten and i9000 screen unless it is a custom rom, A jig will force it into download mode.
If you can get a jig to get you into d/l mode, check out this thread to get you back to normal.
I'm sure you can find some sources for the jig in this thread, but if you prefer to try to make one, yourself, look here.
This may be a handy thread for you, too.
I got the update from Samsung Kies. I got that screen after rooting my phone.
i did three things: update from 2.1 to 2.2, root my phone, and attempted to upgrade to 2.2.1.
The third thing i did messed up my phone.
I will try getting a jig and see what happens. I hope it works fine again.

Ok if Keis updated your phone to 2.2 with the i9000 screen then you dont have a i897 captivate. you have the i9000. mainly sense there is no keis upgrade for 2.2.1 for the captivate.
I was using odin to update to 2.2.1 and ended up bricking my phone!!
I had to use PDA instead of PIT as you said previously!!
Thanks!! there is also a tuturial about how to do a jig here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdn5GoRjhn0
i might follow that one, seems helpful too.

I personally never said anything about PDA or the PIT file. What carrier are you on? ATT, Rogers?

Ok then there is no way Keis updated you to the 2.2 with the i9000 screen, that comes from a custom rom. Get a jig and boot into download mode, if all the other methods have failed and flash back to stock with odin. Oh and all the 2.2.1 roms are custom roms normally used with CWM flashes. Might need to do a little be of research and spend a few hours reading up to make sure this doesnt happen again.
Thank you SO MUCH!!! I really appreciate the time you spent helping me.
And yeah i will do that definitely, that's the moral of the story.
Again, THANK YOU!
Ok I was trying to flash new rom...so I flashed to stock...but after the process finished in Odin...and it showed Reset....my phone should have rebooted right? But it didnt reboot...just got dead...I removed everything and tried to start it no use...even used jig...but its no responsive...I am not panicked (as it was my experimentation phone)...but trying to find what to do in that case...battery was full too....
2.1 / 2.2 / old bootloaders.
I need them AND in an odin flashable tar.
not because i screwed my phone!
I need them for my Rogers stock rom thread!
now with odin 1.82 we can flash the boot loaders seprately (link in thread if needed)
so if i had them, i could ADD them to my stock rom thread . I would be able to have them flash the bootloaders then the rom.
as far as i can tell they are not in my stock roms already
thank you guys!
Check the thread for odin with the three button fix I'm pretty sure everything is broken up into individual pieces for flashing with odin and maybe what you want is in there.

Don't think the 3 button odin had all the bootloaders.
Let me look around,i may be able to find s link. But it may take swhile, busy most of the day.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
samfirmware.com
they have all the odin files
@ mr - 3 button doesnt, thats why ginger people must flash ODIN one click FIRST, then see if 3 button works, THEN flash 3button fix if needed. Only odin one click has bootloaders.... At the moment....
@ pirate - thank you for that but i wouldnt know what to look for inside the firmware. Im still learning, if i knew what i was looking for exactly, i would have it already.... LOL.
kinda why i was asking for help....

just redownloaded jh2, jh3, jh7 tar files. no boot loaders, but seems like every froyo i9000 rom has bootloaders in the tar files.
the files you are looking for are:
boot.bin
sbl.bin
nearly every one of designgears' roms has sbl.bin so you can pull that from the 3button fix or one of his roms.
according to another post by mccord, reposted from the i9000 forums, it looks like you need to flash a 2.2 froyo rom with bootloaders in order to recovery.
odin one click worked for mine, i just tested, but its also a model 1007, its never failed me
according to the continuum how-to (for one reference)
the 3button fix doenst have boot loaders and must flash one-click to snag it's bootloaders first.
and we all know we cant get them from one click
Ill keep looking myself but i would appreciate help as well
either way, once i have those 2 files, do i just tar them? or is there a proper way to package them to flash in odin "bootloader" box? (new feature in 1.81 and up). just like cwm zips need instruction meta data? or no? ive never done odin files.... or just tar them up and flash with pda box? or?
screw it lets find them first.....

this is false. it contains the SECONDARY bootloader, but not the primary
you can also get the sbl.bin (the secondary bootloader) from AIO captivate toolbox
i am hunting down the boot.bin (primary) right now.
ahh... right... i was half wrong... i was tired last night.
but thanks man!
Hello
I have captivate from at&T ( I897). I upgraded last year from eclair to froyo UCJI6 from some site.
Please can some one guide me step by step how to get latest gingerbread. I never had gingerbread on my phone. Upgrading from UCJI6 scares me.
Your help would mean a lot to me.
Thanks

I looked at your post but it was confusing for me as i dont know much.
There were two download links..one was boot loader free ..other was different one.
Can you please send me the the right steps and link for downloading
thanks
Another resource is
MobileTechVideos <- good video guides.
That being said, modifiying your phone can lead to hard bricks. So above all read and understand everything. Most of the danger is flashing bootloaders (that's why you see packages with and without bootloaders, to limit the danger). If you corrupt one of the bootloaders or flash 2 different (none matching) bootloaders you need a Jtag or UnbrickableMod service. When flashing Gingerbread you NEED gingerbread bootloaders. Once flashed you are golden and don't have flash those ever again.

i checked above forum where u helped the guy with upgrading UCJI6 to GB.
He had issues while upgrading but eventually he was succesfull.
I could not find which method he used ..
please help me if possible
Read up on how to get in Download mode and how to use ODIN (or Heimdall if you are running a none windows machine). Download a Stock gingerbread rom with bootloaders and flash. The latest is KK4, but i've never used that specific package (though it should have bootloaders) I can speak for KJ3 on that thread.
Basics.
Open ODIN (1 click or not) as admind
Get in download mode (press vol up+voldown+connect to computer
If normal ODIN use the PDA slot and select the .rar.md5 package
Hit start
Let it finish and bootup
???
profit
I'm not responsible if anytthing should go wrong. If odin gets stuck or you do something wrong you will soft brick or possibly hardbrick your phone.
i am giving up.
Can not find any links and steps which are of great help for Upgrading to GB from UCJI6.
Some are going back to 2.1 before upgarding some not.
Dont know what to do
Going back to stock is-was only used for cwm flashes. You will use ODIN. 2 way different things. Follow my steps. Or read through the tons of threads here. It isn't that hard.

he gave up because he couldnt find EXACT instructions on going from one particular FROYO build....because if he had done any actual research, he would know that it doesnt matter what version of FROYO he is on, he will need to flash the ODIN package with the bootloaders....its all covered in the vast damn posts that already cover this extensively. there was ZERO reason to fire up a new thread.
he has been linked to good info and has refused to take heed. reading and UNDERSTANDING is more important than holding hands around here.
Yes we were all noobs once and yes, you need to do your research but he's obviously nervous and not understanding what he's reading right now. Hopefully he'll calm down and understand the information he's been given. We're done here.
I was trying to root my stock froyo. But somehow I was getting bootloop. Then I tried installing some stock rom through odin. But my bad day, it failed and now I have [phone...+..!...+..computer]. I couldn't go into normal yellow triangular download mode. Searched thru net and found out that this IS a download mode and I need to flash some good ROM/Bootloader/Kernel and I will be fine.
However, I have tried a lot of different odin flashable ROM?bootloaders, etc nothing works.
I saw a lot of ppl refering to this link.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
However I have some question here, first it says open and then click start.. what will that do, we generally put some file in PDA or PHONE section and then we click start. I dont see any such file link there.
can someone help, please. Atleast take me to stock somehow. Now I dont want to root.
Use Heimdall One-Click. download it here. http://files.teamkomin.com/files.php?dir=Captivate/ get the KB2-Rooted version to save yourself some time.
Thank you. without that rooted rom, I was planning not to try rooting again. Thanks, it saved my captivate and rooted too
Hey there,
I was trying to fix up a friends captivate and attempted to use the odin oneclick to restore back to stock 2.1. This was before i read that it only works on phones below 1010. I know let the flaming begin. I ran across the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36 for restoring to I897UCJH2 Firmware for phones over 1010 but all the links relating to this are dead. I have searched high and low for these files. Does anybody have any advice or the files i need?

I'd suggest going directly for Odin KK4 (GB 3.5). It can be found in the stickies.
What ROM/version was he on before trying to flash stock 2.1?
