First off. Did you run AIO as admin? Second your supposed to run Odin first (as admind mind you) and then connect the phone in download. You didnt show this so i dont know. As to the unbrick heimdall, Ive never used it so I dont know whats wrong there. Also since you used heimdall those drivers conflict for ODIN.

thank you man for the help its all fixed now but appreciate the help

what was it?

I had bad USB ports and it already helps to have USB 3.0 ports for extra power worked better with unbrickable mod

[q] help with cappy

Okay, so i had accidentally hard bricked my captivate, and sent it in to the guy from mobiletechvideos. but when i got it back, it no longer would connect to my computers, not the ones i had before i bricked which worked perfectly fine. (two XP laptops), or the one i bought while i sent it out, a Windows 7 laptop. I need to get it to connect so i can update to KB1, since JTAGging left it at JF6. i also need to root it after that, but it wont connect. i will leave it on ask on connection, kies mode, and mass storage, but half the time i dont get a notification saying its plugged in. and when in mass storage mode, it doesnt recognize my phone, or the sd card in it. also when i did get it to be recognized by kies mini, it said something like the software is unauthorized and it wont let me click update. i hard bricked after trying to flash back to JF6 from CM7 build 22 if that helps. Does anyone have any ideas on wats happened?
EDIT: and yes drivers are installed on each. i performed the updste back in Feb. on one of the XP's before switching to CM7, and it worked perfectly, but know it doesnt work
1. Wrong section.
2. Try reinstalling the drivers. Make sure the phone is in debugging mode as well.
sorry wasnt sure where to put it, and..
1. i reinstalled twice on each.
2. i did make sure
Try Odining to stock again. That is all the guy that you sent your phone did, but it might help to try again.
I thought he used someweird thing to JTAG like in his demo. And Odin is wat bricked myphone. Also I don't have the 2.2 file, and also if my computer doesn'trecognize my phonehow can I use Odin?

When was your last windows restore point? Might want to roll that back that's what fixed it for me when my computer wouldn't recognize the phone in download mode.

It would take a god to JTAG our phones. He just used a JIG and put your phone into download mode manually. There is no mess with your bootloaders because you were just on CM7. And try what the post above me suggested, could work. Also, use Odin 1-click, you don't need any 2.2 file. All I'm asking you to do is try it. If you haven't tried it then there is no point in me trying to help you.

Help with Soft brick! Edited with "MY" solution!

Before ppl start asking me, this is what happened. I gave my Cappy to my daughter and after months of running Dlev Rom, I decided to upgrade to ICS. She was not happy with the rom and wanted to go back to gingerbread. I tried downgrading via recovery but had issues with the downgrade. Long story short....ignorant me, I used Odin and end it up with eclair.
Now here is where the problem started. The phone was succesfully flashed with eclair but button combo wasnt working at all. So, I rooted first and then with adb, I adb reboot download, then once in download, I flashed ginger bootloaders and thats how i end it up with the infamous phone /!\ comp. soft brick. Since originally i had no button combo working, I cant get into download mode. My comp just wont recognize the Cappy.
I have searched for hours and tried all ways possible to get into DL mode but "nada"! Even with Odin opened or heimdall, batt out, batt in, all combinations of buttons...nada (nothing), no luck. Also tried the program by Adam to unbrick the Cappy (that I've found searching) but still nada! I have windows 7 with java and that program by Adam just wont work on my comp.
Can someone try to help me on what can I do without sending my daughter's Cappy to a shop...lol?
Edit: In this post I explain what got "me" out of the softbrick after 2 days of trying! It might not work for who ever falls in a similar situation and even mayb is not a proper way of doing things, but it worked on my end!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26305016&postcount=23
You can use that screen as a download mode.
Remove Java. And then go download Java JRE.
Java JRE 32 bit
Java JRE 64 bit
Try going and grabbing the Heimdall KK4 1 click. Or you could try any of the Gingerbread Heimdall packages in the OneClick Master Collection
I think you'll be fine to run Heimdall after the Java reinstall.

Try this:
Take out battery
Plug in usb cable
Hold volume+ and volume-
Pop in battery
This should take you straight into download mode. Just have to flash a new ROM/Stock Image

The [Phone /!\ Computer] screen is another method of Download Mode. You should still get Odin to recognize the phone. If Odin recognizes the phone, you should flash KI2 from This thread, since it has CWM injected. Once you have CWM, you have a clean slate to install any ROM you desire.
If Odin does NOT recognize you phone no matter which USB port you connect the phone to (as it happened to me once), you could try what I did. I downloaded Windows installer for Ubuntu Desktop, and that got me Linux. Once I had Linux, flashed KB2 from the ROM thread linked above. Why Linux? Because I never got Heimdall to work on Windows, but I did on Linux. After my phone was completely stock, I followed the instructions on TRusello's Guide to Flashing ANY ROM to get my phone set up the way I wanted.
I'm sure there are faster ways than the one I just gave you, but I can vouch that my method works, and you might get your phone sorted out while you wait for a better response. Good luck!
That will teach me to edit my post without refreshing first!

Yeeee....finally someone with a good heart and willing to share knowledge!!! And BTW, yes I tried all usb ports. The difference between your comp and mine is that I can run heimdall but like I said, way i plug the usb, my comp nor heimdall and/or Odin recognize the phone after the brick.
I'm not home at the moment but thank you from the bottom of my heart for your info. I'll get home kind of late tonight but I will follow your info to the tee and keep u post it...if u dont mind!
Thx and a kiss for you sweety!

Heimdall and odin use different drivers, Once you install Heimdal and use your phone on a USB port, that USB port will only work with Heimdall. Odin will no longer work on that USB port, Until you uninstall the heimdall drivers

Short and sweet...i installed ubuntu last night on my pc and I thought i lost windows. Did some search and I can choose when my pc start up either W7 or ubuntu. Went to bed at 4am trying to install java to ubuntu with no luck. To b honest, i'm about to quit trying to get this phone in DL mode. My daughter hates me and my husband told me, u messed it up...u fix it! Agh!!!!! I'm trying again but if I cant get it to work I rather just buy my kid a new phone....and thats a shame because that Cappy has been a warrior!
Any other method to get DL mode??? PLEASE...SOMEONE????
Once you're at that screen, it is download mode. You could try a jig. You can build one or buy one.
Did you reinstall java on Windows 7 and then try Heimdall?

Yes I did and pc still not recognize device. Tried all ports and different usb cable...still no go!
Did device manager not recognize it or Odin/Heimdall not recognize it? I know my system wouldn't show it was connected but Odin/Heimdall still would.

Neither one recognize the device. With Odin you're supposse to see the yellow light meaning its connected...but nothing, and with heimdall clearly says disconected. I am sooo exausted looking for an answer as to what to do to get this phone on DL mode! I've used both programs in the past but the phone just dont want to come alive!
I understand how frustrating it can be to get a phone to respond.
I went back to your first post to make sure I didn't miss anything and I realized what the issue might be. Since the phone was upgraded to ICS it wouldn't be using the standard captivate drivers any more.
Let's try this:
Download and install the Android SDK
Add the Google USB Driver
Try ODIN/Heimdall again.
I think I had a similar issue when I was reverting a phone from CM7 back to Stock captivate.

Ok...thats it! That did not work either. I connected my SGS II just to see if my pc would recognize the phone, and indeed my pc picked up the device as well as my husband's Sensation. So thats it! Just called Radio Shack for a jig and the guy never heard of that...lmao! You guys should see my daughter's look at me....awh!
Anyway...I'm subscribed to this thread so if anyone has another bright idea I'll give it a shot. Thanks again!
Sorry that didn't work either. Here's another thread about connection issues to the computer. I hope this helps

Well...thank you! Don't know if i should keep DLing stuff to my pc. Now I have ubuntu, sdk manager, hemidall, dont know how many odins, etc. My husband just ask me for a new pc because he tried to uninstall ubuntu and he was unsuccesfull at it. Now this softbrick is gonna cause me some major issues family wise. This really sucks! But hey, me been a female, I just learned that nothing is impossible for us. If my hubbie dont wanna help me...I'll get it done one way or another. I will see my daughter smile....believe that!!!!!
Thank you!
I have a 2.5 year old daughter and would do anything to see her smile.
Here is a guy here on XDA who makes the jigs. However, I still believe you just have a driver issue. At this point I can only say to take off all the drivers, odin, and heimdall and start fresh.

I used his kindle fire cable and it was great.

SGS GT-i9000 fozen on the first boot screen (Galaxy S GT-i9000 SCREEN)

I own a Galaxy S GT-i9000( bought at SFR)
When I connect it to computer I get the prompt that tells to choose between Storage, Kies...
But whatever I choose the computer tells me USB Device not recognised.
Now I was stupid enough to do the following:
I managed to root using Z4root by copying the APK file on external sd .
I got rom manager and updated my recovery.
I updated using the CM10-unofficial rom that is in the development forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775169
The Mobile Network was not working so I did the following
I restored the nand that i did in recovery and now the phone is frozen on the first boot screen (Galaxy S GT-i9000 SCREEN)
Now I can go to Download mode but I can't go to recovery mode.
Let me remind you that my USB data connection is not working. So even though I enter into the Download mode I am not able to use Odin. If you know somthing that I am not doing, let me know.
So now I am looking for a solution that would permit me to flash without USB or allow me to go to recovery mode. Or a tutorial on how to change the usb port myself.
Thanks in advance.

You can try using Mobile Odin.
Also, you can try Heimdall method: https://www.fixmystuff.in/FMS_Forum...-flashing-to-original-rom-using-heimdall.126/
Hey
have you tried to connect it in Download mode??
Need more solutions
Thanks again to all of you that have answered me so fast.
Well I just finished trying all that you suggested.
unfortunately am still at the same point. Whatever I do, whatever drivers am putting in, cleaning inside the USB port with methylated spirit... Not getting Odin or Kies to detect it.
I read somewhere that when the data connection works, I should see the device named Samsung Device even before installing the drivers, but all I am getting is Unknown device. I still went ahead uninstalling and installing the drivers you provided and there is no successful outcome so far.
I still have faith. I have a little knowledge in electronics. I can open my phone and get to the usb port. My problem is I don't get any tutorial on how to replace the usb port. The thing is the connections are very tiny. I can also do with a bypass way that could make me install a 2nd usb port temporarily just long enough to flash the phone.
Or a hardware solution if I have to remove and flash a specific IC in a certain manner.
Thank you in advance.

hi there,
after doing alot of stuff to your phone that wasnt nessacary i'm not surprised it doesnt work er sorry . the only thing i can think of is the following whenever i have a problem with windows i go to linux, which is faster , much more efficient . so i suggest that you install linux ( ubuntu the best ) and try using odin with the linux version, it often detects things that windows doesnt see. other than that sorry cant think of anything else .
see ya
Trying it

Look like a quite number of people are having this same issue and haven't got over it.
I just hang on and appeal to all of you cos I know XDA is the best place where I can get a solution.

right now i know i should be able to recover my phone as i can connect my phone and it recognises it as apx driver, but the trouble is i can put in updating mode. ( vol down and then inserting usb) i plug in the usb without the battery inserted and without pushing any buttons and it still recognises it as an apx device, knowing this, ive tried nvflash and smart flash but both have no effect and dont recognise my phone. i will add that the version of ics that is currently out leaked. is very smooth, unfortunately bluetooth pairing doesnt work properly and wifi is a bit weak, but theres a fix for that.
i have tried flashing a cwm but to no succes. i do know some things in android flashing and repairs, but admittidly not everything so im not a complete noob.
id very much apreciate it if anyone could help me.
youll have to excuse any typing mistakes. the resolution on the tv isnt that great from a laptop hdmi out. sorry guys.

Upgrade from custom ICS to official

I would like to upgrade my 2X from Nova HD Rebuild v1.1.0 to Official V30A.
Problem is that I can not install drivers for PC because my custom ROM does not support PC connection,
Then I tried to downgrade it to stock rom, but I forgot to do backup in CWM when I moved from to stock to custom ROM. Thats way I have nothing to come back to. Now I am stucked without any ideas.
Can you please give me some advice?
Thanks
Admins!! I am bit surprised about this post. How come a new member with only 4 posts can open a new (looking for customer care kind of) thread in DEVELOPMENT section?
Asking coz I think this facility was not available since many years.
Dude! This post should be in General Section. Generally Devs dont answer such things in this area. :silly:
download B2C from lg site and install drivers
put youre phone into sw mode

2.Install drivers

dafoxen, I tried removing the battery and Holding downvolume up & down , when booting, but in that case phone wont start.
It only boots when volume down is pressed and then it goes to sw upgrading mode. After connecting to PC nothing happens, no driver installing, no nothing.
I also tried with dubuging mode on and off before booting but its the same

cmahendra is right, the post doesn't belong in the Dev section, if the mods see it I am sure they will move it.
If you HAD to post in the Dev section then maybe you could have posted in the Nova thread?
But.. why don't you just put another rom on your SD card (surely you can take out your SD card and connect it to your PC? Buy an adapter if you need to they cost pennies) and flash it from CWM? Then you can connect to your PC.

You are so proud that you are member of XDA for 5.5 years but don't know the rules about creating topic in development section. You should be ashamed.

I have almost exact same problem, but mine has been already update to ICS using smathflash. But for some reason I cannot install Homero's rooted V30a, becuase apparently the opti tool keep saying: USB device not found. I already try LG drivers, switching USB ports, restarting computer, poor device by now I'm sure it feels that has been raped after so many plug in's and off's.
How do I do and how do I know that the computer recognize it in APX mode?

Exactly, you've been here for over 5 years, you should know that questions go in Q&A. And don't try to blame this on cmahendra, he's kinda right. The development section is for Roms, kernels etc. Not questions.
I am not blaming anyone. Everyone has its own opinion and that is great, it only makes this community better.
But still I cant solve my problem
hectormcesar is having one also.
Come on people, we count on you :good:
He probably got the point, I'm a wise guy, we all are, anyway time, to update officially downgrade at least the baseband which is what LG check, I've done it with gb, but ics from topo was denied probably because bb was 28g.......

I'm having the same issue as you, it seems. Check out this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1981359
You might find an answer there, it gave me some life signs:
I flashed this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1617458
To get some sort of life signs, I switched to CP UART, because switching to AP UART didn't change anything. Anyway, I hear the sound that plays when you plug a device in a couple of times, but it shows as an unknown device in the device manager. I also get a little icon in the system tray that says "an unknown device has been plugged in". A couple of seconds later, it disappears, the "disconnect" sound plays and the "unknown device" is no longer shown in the device manager...

The download link in post #1 is dead, but there's a mirror on page 6.
Question threads do not belong in Development, you only post threads in there when you've got developments to share. Moved to Q&A where all question threads should be posted.
Please be civil to each other please as you should be helping not criticising each other. Also reason Golub can post in Development is because he's been a member since before the 10 post rule was ever implemented.
Thanks
