I just got this tab and like every other android i get I rooted it. I used superoneclick -- worked fine. then downloaded cwm and flashed the recovery. of course when i went into recovery it was 3e so i couldnt actually use cwr without the bypass fix. Anyway -- i used some recovery fix -- which i think was for a vibrant -- wasn't thinking. Once it rebooted into recovery it showed some yellow letters then went blank. The computer still recognizes it but the tab won't boot. i can reset it by turning it off and on but it only shows tmobile splash and the yellow letters scrolling in recovery then goes blank again. please help. i've been reading everything but no one seems to have had this problem.
thank you very much

is that really my best option??
i figured there would be some manual way to reflash the recovery or maybe complete firmware with a recovery built in. it will still go into download mode -- like i said the computer still recognizes it but I just don't know where to start. ive never used odin and not a pro at adb/sdk but i can usually follow directions pretty well. i've rooted g1's, mytouch 3g fenders slides, inspires, atrix, vibrant, captivates so i'm not giving up yet. i know someone is willing to help.
from the off position, when you press and hold volume down then a moment later without letting up from volume down also hold power button until lights turn on, what does it do?
download all below zips, and unzip them
run it usb driver. say yes to everything. plug in tab to computer in download mode. let it install tab drivers
unplug tab.
open odin
Watch the first box on the left. ID:COM
plug in tab to comp in download mode.
That box should light up yellow, that means your tab in connected and ready to go.
place unzipped stock rom in PDA.
Press Start.
When done it should say all threads completed, and your tab should restart on its own.
Let it boot, and welcome back to stock Tmobile
uploads are taking a bit, be patient.
Do you want stock 2.2, or 2.3?
yes -- it goes into download mode
sounds promising -- thank you -- i will keep you updated on the progress.
prefer 2.2 where it was.
thanks so much
REMOVED!!!!!
here is dropbox of everything you need. It is a stock firmware, no root.
once we get you back up and running, we will go from there.
please let me know the moment you have downloaded this zip, as it sucks my bandwidth.

Let me know what your tab currently says in settings, about device.
Hold down the back arrow, and while still holding a second later, press you powerbutton. Let go.
Shoulda taken a screen shot. Uoload it here or just write it down.
I can guide you from there.

Guys, I desperately need your help! I'm a bit of a noob and tried to update my Galaxy S to 2.2 and forgot to uninstall Voodoo and unroot before doing so. My phone now won't switch on properly, displaying only a black screen and the capacitive buttons are lit up. I have downloaded odin but don' t know what to do from here. I have searched EVERYWHERE for what files I need to download to flash it to stock firmware. PLEASE PLEASE help, I'm so lost! Thanks...look forward to replies
Take out battery, sim and SD, open up Odin and plug USB cord into a USB port. Now plug the battery back in your phone and DO NOT TURN IT ON! hold the two volume rockers(maybe difdrent for you, I have a Captivate) and plug your phone into the USB cord. You should now be in download mode with Odin running. Flash a working firmware(get them from samfirmware.com) and you'll just have an working phone running whatever you decided to flash. I think your new so ill warn you right quick: read, alot!
PS: might wanna post this in q&a. People tend to get p-ssed off when you post non-development stuff in this subforum.

Searched everywhere!? Can you get into download mode? If you can grab the stock firmware from somewhere like samfirmware and flash the files using odin. If you search "everywhere" again I'm sure you'll find a good guide on how to do this.
You've also posted this in the wrong section
First off are you looking to flash the i9000 or the i9000m below are the instructions for the i9000m from Canada.
Here is a Tutorial if you dont want to follow my steps below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853950
Ok download mode is your down volume button, power and home key all at once, if you cant get here you are f'd. So power off your phone, take your sim and sd card out, place battery back in, then hit the 3 buttons to get into download mode.
Go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=846913
Get odin and the rom you want, if you are on Bell or Sasktel use the link above and download the proper rom either 2.1(i9000ugjh2) or 2.2 (i9000ugjk3), it's under canada you can't really get that wrong.
Once you have both open odin v1.7, put your phone into download mode and plug it in, you have to have odin open before plugging it in, you should see the driver installing and when it is ODIN will show your device under ID:COM, it will be yellow something like c:[COM15] (note it doesn't have to be 15) just has to show added!! under Message.
Now click PDA button and find the rom you downloaded. Make sure Re-partition is NOT checked and that is it, click Start. You can have autoreboot checked and reset time. NOTE: DO NOT USE PIT FILE. All you have to do is find the rom via PDA button, and click start.
It should flash your rom, post back if you ahve issues, I had a few issues and know this pretty good, I also used a pit file and thought I bricked my phone but it's ok. Hopefully you can get into recovery mode also which is vol up, power and home.

Nice job on the working phone! I reccomend flashing the ULK kernel. It basically includes anything ever whipped up kernel-wise. Also, I think you'ld like Doc's V9 Jpa and to top it all off flash the Jk3 modem(unless you live EX-USA. then flash JPP). These are all CWM flashable so no more Odin hassle.

I have 2.2 on Rogers, rooted. I also have Cognition 3.04 installed as well as CWM. I tried to install a battery mod .zip file using CWM, but all that is happening now is that I am stuck on the startup screen (Cognition) and my Captivate just vibrates! In recovery using CWM 'reboot now' and 'reboot recovery' doesn't work. Is there anyway to 'bypass' my last (failed) installed .zip and go back to the home screen?
WHAT DO I DO? I have tried to use the recovery_update.zip file from CWM to get my phone working again but still no luck.
I SWEAR IF SOMEONE CAN HELP ME I WILL NEVER EVER TAMPER WITH MY PHONE AGAIN EVER. I WILL ONLY EVER USE IT FOR PHONE CALLS AND TEXTING. I WILL DO ANYTHING. PLEASE HELP!!!!

If you can get back into recovery which it sound like you can just reflash the original rom zip.

Since you can go into download mode, do not worry, you should be fine in just a few minutes.
You can either download Designgears Odin One Click where baiscally you put it into DOWNLOAD ** and click "flash" or w.e and it puts your phone back to stock or you can use a new tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=944418 < dont know how that is have never treid. Basically theyre both one click so shouldnt be too hard.
steps r put ur phone into DOWNLOAD MODE aka, shut off phone take of sim + microsd if you have any, then put battery back in, while holding both volume buttons pressed, plug in USB cable (MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ODIN OPENED FIRST), once your in the recovery screen you should see the COM:12 or something like that on odin (also make sure you have samsung usb drivers installed.)
press flash and should put it back to stock. IF THAT DOESNT WORK, you MIGHT have an internal SD card that is dead. then your phone is useless(never had this happen to me on captivate, just on vibrant i9000m)
Good luck.

Thanks so much for th ehelp so far, what I am worried about is flashing it to i897 (AT&T) instead of i896 (Rogers) which has happened before. When that happened the phoen refused to recognize my SIM card, etc and I had to bring it back into the store to be shipped back to the factory, etc.

Hello all and thx in advance.
ATT Captivate batch 1010
I had Cognition 2.3 I think on my phone and it worked great however I wanted to try a different ROM so I attempted to restore my phone to stock using ODIN one click. I realized after that that I never disabled the voodoo lag fix or deleted my user data.
Now I am stuck in a boot loop that either shows the white ATT logo screen flashing every couple seconds or the phone off charge screen re starting every couple seconds.
I bought a USB Jig and it works great so I can get into D/L mode easily but I have tried flashing the stock firmware at least 6 times now using different machines, different ports, different versions of ODIN and I've searched around these forums and others for several hours trying to find a solution. It seems that I needed to erase my user data in recovery mode and removed the lag fix before I did this but it is what it is. I have tried to get to recovery mode to no avail. All I can get to is download mode.
Any ideas on what I should/can do?
any help will be greatly appreciated.

please help, i have the same problem, was flashing back to stock from a serendipit 5.12 so that i could get the 6.0 version... all went as planned until odin said "reset" which was my cue to unplug and that the process was complete.... i unplugged the phone and tried to reboot and now it does exactly as the first post described, at&t logo then black screen, then back to the at&t logo then black screen again... my computer doesnt recognize my phone none of the methods of getting to download screen will work... no matter how many times i pull the sd, sim, and batt, no matter the button combination i use or which order i use them in.... same result... i cant afford a new phone i need help, i will donate also... i knew this stuff was over my head, but "curiosity killed the cat" i guess...
I had the exact same problem. Try this method, it's the one that worked for me when all others failed... But remember to follow it EXACTLY.
1. Pull out the battery.
2. Hold Volume UP+DOWN (Don't let go of them until you see the download screen).
3. Stick in the USB (which is connected to the computer).
4. Put the battery back in.
If not, you might need to get a USB Jig.
That Froyo Odin link worked!
Thanks guys I flashed to Froyo and it worked!
I've since flashed clockwork recovery and gotten Serendipity 6.1
As far as getting into download mode I had to use one of the USB jigs.
I ordered one from the guy who does the rom reviews but you could make one as well.
On another note the new ROM seems to be discharging my battery really fast
Before I start investigating it as a problem I am going to charge it completely then let it discharge completely to calibrate it.
Thanks again guys

I just fixed mine last night, I had the exact same problem because of the exact same upgrade. What you need to do is get or make a usb jig. There's a couple resources around here for how to do it.
Here's a video showing how to make one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdn5GoRjhn0
Once I got my phone into download mode, I used Darky's ROM Resurrection Edition ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=940671 ) to restore my phone. Just scroll down to where it says "Files Needed" and download the Captivate version. Once you have that downloaded, use the jig to put your phone into download mode and follow the directions in the Darky's video (jump to about 2:30 into the video). Once I had my phone booting, I used clockwork to install Serendipity 6.
Hope that helps you as much as it helped me!!
went to radio shack, got all the stuff to make a jig and i was able to get my phone into download mode! now to try darko...... thanks everyone!
odin doesnt reconize phone
which odin3 are you using? 1.7? or the one click to stock?
you mentioned you had the bootloop problem before, so you should be using odin 1.7 with 2.2 stock.
open odin
get phone into download mode with your nice jig
unplug jig and plug in computer
box in odin should turn yellow.
And make sure you have the correct drivers installed. CRUCIAL.

If one-clicks aren't working, you might need to grab the full version of Heimdall or Odin and flash a full package. Some of the newer phone builds don't like one-clicks.

Hi, I have a SS/ATT Galaxy S. It was working fine. I made the mistake of running an update to change the ATT splash screen. The device boots to the ATT splash screens and stays there. You can hear the SS start up sounds as though the unit booted ok.
I've tried various Odins they all hang on file analysis. I've tried using different computers per the recommendations in the various threads. I've tried many of the one click and also separate file updaters. They all hang on file analysis.
I am able to use Droid explorer to view the device. I've also put a new update.zip on an sd card but nothing seems to change the splash screen.
I'm not sure how to tell what version the unit is currently on.
I can get to the 3 button state. It says Android System recovery <2e>.
I have the options to reboot, reinstall packages, delete all user data and delete cache data. I've tried each of them, no change.
I have tried to read many threads before bothering anyone. Your input would be appreciated.
Thanks
if you have the update.zip on your phone, in the root of your SD card.. then from 2eRecovery, select reinstall packages.. may have to do it twice. That will boot your phone into clockworkmod recovery.. and from there you should be able to mount storage- put a ROM on your device, flash and be good to go.
Reply to thread
Hi, Thanks for the fast response. I've tried update.zip on both an sd card and also via droid explorer, about 5 times. If I reboot, same thing, the ATT splash is there, and the Galaxy boot sound. I can get into recovery and droid explorer works. If I try Odin it hangs on file analysis. Anything else I can try? Thanks again.
Are you in dl mode when you try this, or recovery?
The phone is now bricked. I was in recovery mode as I saw the 3 button posts on holding the up/down and pwr. I just tried it with dl mode and odin3 and bricked it.(based on another forum's input to check repartition I think). Now it won't boot at all but I'm still able to get to dl mode but not sure what to run to fully recover.

If you can get to dl mode try using AIO Captivate to flash back to stock 2.1. I've had success as I flashed with the partition checked and had to go all the way back using ODIN contained in the AIO Captivate program. Found here

Yeah if you can get into download mode than you are not bricked. I would Odin or Heim back to JF6 and go from there. What happened when you tried reinstalling packages from 2e? I know you said everytime you reboot- but what did it say when selected reinstall packages?

Hello. I have searched the forums and have not really found out an answer to my question. Earlier in the week I tried installing Andromeda with an ursa minor kernal I believe? (I was following a tut on youtube) I succesfully got ursa minor on my phone but the tutorial failed to mention I had to put Andromeda on the internal sd card to flash it. (first time trying to flash a rom so big noob). I decided to go back to stock and retry using Odin One Click. Odin bricked my phone because it is build number 1108 :/ I have an infinite ATT world phone boot loop because of this. I will be trying to make a jig/buying one soon to get back into download mode to fix this. I am not sure exactly what I am supposed to do once I am in download mode. I want to get back to stock. Obviously Odin One Click doesn't work because of my build number. What steps should I follow to go back to froyo 2.2 and to retry? Please help I am just not sure.

Hello. I have searched the forums and have not really found out an answer to my question. Earlier in the week I tried installing Andromeda with an ursa minor kernal I believe? (I was following a tut on youtube) I succesfully got ursa minor on my phone but the tutorial failed to mention I had to put Andromeda on the internal sd card to flash it. (first time trying to flash a rom so big noob). I decided to go back to stock and retry using Odin One Click.

You'll have to use the full Odin program and grab a stock ROM from the development section. Once your in download flash stock ROM with through Odin or heimdall. I'm not next to my computer so I don't feel like fishing for links ..but should be fairly easy!

This is a Odin 1 click for KB1 2.2 stock. After that follow any roms instructions except if it says stock 2.1 ignore it and assume its stock 2.2
I was wondering if I should follow this thread??
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36
Might I ask do you need to get to 2.1?

When I got my phone (about a two weeks ago) it came with 2.2 already on the phone. I don't need to get to 2.1 but I was thinking I'd go to 2.1 and then upgrade to 2.2 using att? If I can?
But why? If you got it as is and its stock its att's 2.2. At any rate If your so inclined on flashing 2.1 the one you mentioned thats using full Odin with pit should work. I suggest doing it if and only if you have that jig handy. Also keep in mind that .tar probably has bootloaders in it (wich is a risk you really dont need to take) just my 2 cents

Links in that thread seem to be broken:/ So I suppose I can't use that.
Ive never used this one but it is also a KB1 2.2 KB1
My ultimate goal is to get Andromeda3 on my cappy. It seems to be a good rom. Could I just flash that using oden? (put it in the pda slot) or will that not work until I go back to stock?
With this new thread you linked me to, Just put in odin and I should be good to go? Thank you for your help by the way.
Ive never used that rom. Follow their instructions and assume stock is 2.2 for you. Also The original link i sent you should have worked. Aperrantly mediafire.com is having issues tonight.
installing Andromeda3 doesnt require going back to stock, 2.2 or 2.1.
ODIN flash a custom CWM kernel
boot to recovery
flash rom
thats it

I can't because I bricked my cappy. i can't go into recovery right now. I need a jig to get back into download mode to fix it.

Once I get my jig hopefully mediafire is up and I can download from the first link you sent me. That seems to be my best bet right now. Thank you for your help. I sure hope I can get my phone backXD

you are stuck in a boot loop right?
if you power your phone off, hold down both vol buttons and hold down the power button until the ATT screen comes up, let go, does it not go into recovery mode?
or
download mode:
power off, while holding both vol buttons, plug in usb. does that not work?

Get ursa minor back on your phone, then mount usb in mounts and storage, then copy the Andromeda3 zip to the drive. You were almost there.
Fish around in the usb port with 301kOhms of resistance from radio shack. You will hit pins 4 abd 5 and you will be in download mode.

No:/ no button combos work to get me in recovery or download mode. Getting a jig (hopefully today) so I can fix all this. Yes it is in a boot loop

Thanks. I tried putting the Andromeda on the phone by copying it over to the phone through the mounted sd card but it was all of a sudden "write protected" and showed up as a cd instead of an sd card. :/ I know I was real close but I made some mistakes along the way
also, when you say fish around the usb port. you mean inside the phone? Is there any danger of hitting the wrong pins and possibly hurting my phone? (say i hit pins 3 and 5 by mistake or something) or is it all pretty safe? I was going to try and attempt the jig method that only used the resistors but n oticed the pins were horrible small in the phone:/

It's not inside the phone... it's the USB port on the phone. One pin is on top and the other is on the bottom. If you don't have a JIG, that's the easy way to do it. There's no power on the USB port. This is a quick way to do it. You'll be fine. It's safe.

Sorry, that is what I meant. I meant to place where the charger is plugged in to. Just seems like the pins are really really tiny. Thank you for your help gonna get my resistors hopefully today and get my phone working again.
