dont use one click lagfix for anything.
I never had a one click lag fix for anything, it was a one click root. The lag fix was an update.zip file

I ended up reverting to Eclair and flashing Cognition4 for the time being. It's as close to bone stock Official Froyo from Samsung as it gets. That and I didn't check back and see your post before I had begun flashing Cognition4... lol.
Was anyone else successful? Original poster, how'd it go, did the above mentioned OneClicker work for ya?
Yeah, i one click rooted my 2.2 Captivate earlier today. No problems at all.
Cool...
I wonder why just placing the Update.zip on the Internal SD, booting into recovery <3e>, and reinstalling the update doesn't work??
I had tried that method as well and still got the signature error stop.
Oh well...

You can use this modded recovery to install things with 3e, or enable the use of CWM.
Worked for me.
Ok i know and have seen that there are many experienced users in this forum, so i give you this!!Pls help sum1!!!
I think i bricked my fone, tried to get cwm 3 on it, then while rebooting, it wont reboot. went into download mode with odin (3 button fix) (i have done this 9-10 times before, not a noob to this), selected pit and tar and hit start. odin stuck on factoryfs and fully orange screen on fone. removed battery, fone, usb, odin restart, tried again, yellow screen. again. red screen. now got frustrated. tried normal odin(not the 3 button fix), again yellow screen.took out battery to try again, but fone wont start/go in dl/recvry mode anymore. tried on 2 different comps with xp/win7. no go.
SCREWED??
BTW, i ordered a jig.should arrive by end of week.
It'll be fine after you get your jig.

same thing happened to me...but i just got it replaced..as there was no way i could wake it up...but try Jig..or just get it replaced...every captivate is under warranty...tell them u were doing official Froyo update and lost electricity or something....
yes will try that and post.
In the meantime, can sum1 pls run me thru the steps to install custom ROM on preinstalled froyo cappy? My prev 1 was stock eclair, i filed 4 insurance and am sure the new 1s gonna b stock froyo. I have heard that there are a no. f probs with stock froyo phones????
Its a semi uncommon problem.I have had the random colored screens before and had to pull battery. Managed to get odin to work after a couple of times

flash to stock using full Odin(full odin to avoid loosing 3 button combo), flash CWM.Zip....flash any froyo custum rom
or just flash the fix for sign verification (its somewhere in the threads) then you can avoid flashing to stock....just flash CWM and Custom rom

YEA, I THOT SO 2... JUZ WANTED 2 VERIFY, WAT ABOUT WEN CHANGING ROMS?do i need to flash to stock every time, or can i just take a backup f froyo stock using cwm?(sorry 4 the caps...)
Most of the custom roms don't require flashing to stock now a days. But if its mentioned in the instructions than I would do it.
But definitely you should disable lagfix and stuff before flashing over new rom.

Sounds as though your bootloader got hammered.
Yes, as another posted, with 3e recovery you'll get a signing error, but there is a workaround, depending on your device and ROM you're using to have files pass through as if it were on 2e recovery. Another method is if one passes files that are unsigned. (only load if it's from a trusted source)
Is it possible you performed a nandriod backup before this debacle occurred?
If so, try a restore from recovery with your last nandroid backup. This should restore the bootloader and correct partitioning on your disk.

inncidentally i did do a couple of nandroids before "all the **** hit the fan". and i could use it to restore. but how? my fone simply wont turn on, neither go in2 recv/ dl. so how 2 restore???????
all 2.2 have 3e recovery, custom roms built on 2.2 come pre cracked.
here is the 3e recovery fix. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909213
it works on all 2.2 stocks with 3e.
if you are rooted using "one click root 1.7" (NOT ODIN ONE CLICK!!!) you dont need adb commands just root explorer to mount and replace file. or use adb to mount and push file. the instructions in the thread have the 2 methods mixed together.

Dude, that's just plain wrong. Let each person decide on their own who's advice to take and who's to ignore. It's an open forum and we all have the right to share our knowledge and experience. The focus here should be helping people get the assistance they need, not to diminish someone's credibility based on a personal opinion.
In short, grow up.

ok, but then do u mean my bootloader is not damaged? can it be still repaired by using jig? can i restore nandroid?? but how 2 do so since my fone wont turn on at all?
What happens when you do turn it on- nothing? Or does it hang on the boot screen?

I had the very same problem. Your bootloater is boogered up now. I sent mine to an xda member and he fixed it.
Even with a jig I wasn't able to do anything. My phone would go into d/l mode with it but that was all it would do.
I paid $50 to have mine fixed which in my opinion is well worth it. That doesn't include shipping costs. I had connexion2005 fix it for me. He a great guy and does very fast work. It beats buying a new phone.
Hope this helps.

Hi, I got a new captivate today, which had 2.2 pre-installed and tried rooting it. Tried a few update.zips to root it, but it wouldn't root it, due to the e-signature error. Using the AIO Captivate toolbox, I tried flashing the 2.1 JF6 stock, so that I could root and install Froyo ROM's. I'm pretty sure the 2.1 JF6 stock flash went fine, but my phone refuses to boot in. It just shows the AT&T screen and restarts and continues this loop.
Can anyone please suggest what I could do to fix this ? I'm trying to get this into download mode and I have the jig. But, after getting it into download mode, what should I do next? Is there a way I can install the stock 2.2 that came pre-installed with the phone ?

Sounds like a build 1010 captivate..
...The jig is the only way that you can get back to DL mode if it is. look at the sticker under the battery and see if it is a build 1010, if it is you won't be able to go back to JF6, you'll have to use the full Odin and go back to JH2 first then root with update.zip then CWM flash the JH7 .zip file that you can find in the dev forum posted by Designgears I believe or you can just use kies mini to go back to stock 2.2 after you flash JH2.
Yea I'm trying the jig, but strangely it doesn't work

OK will try that tomorrow maybe
But, just for the sake of knowledge, where can I find an update.zip that can root stock 2.2 on newer captivates ? I tried all almost 3-4 of them from this forum, but strangely none of them worked. It was my inability to root stock 2.2, that made me try getting to 2.1 JF6 using one-click.
Consensus is super one click
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Super one click to root stock froyo. That's it. Unless you wanna odin speedmod boot into recovery and apply root that way. By then you would need to flash another modem.

im not using my regular computer because it isnt working right now so i dont have the drivers on this computer but i went to install them and either im not doing it right or it just isnt working. the computer stil doesnt recognize it
Question.
Question. You said you want clockwork and root. How about you flash Cyanogen Stable Mod 7.2? It has clockwork AND it comes pre-rooted so you dont have to worry about rooting the phone.
FIXEDDD...thanks for giving me the link to I897UCKK4...once i got that i was able to look for a video on youtube and did it through odin. i was unable how to figure out the KK4 root 1.1. but thank you guys for your help. my sd card was wiped when all this first happened unfortunately but ill livee.

You said your note came from repair and it was on download mode. I think it was NOT REPAIRED AT ALL. Country or region has nothing to do with manual flashing. You only need region when using kies to update.

Tbere is no need to try different roms as every rom is like same. Not much difference. Maybe your device is hard bricked and writing isn't possible. Get your motherboard replaced.

Since I am not able to connect to a network I am lost as to what to try. Any suggestions on where to go from here?

Hi
My stock JB official unrooted rom suddenly went to a bootloop. I looked up online for solutions and flashed an official JB ROM for my phone and Odin failed to flash it. I tried Philz recovery but Odin failed to flash it. I got a yellow triangle which I was able to removie through Odin. Currently my phone is stuck on the splash screen. Recovery doesn't work. Odin fails when I try to reflash with a md5.tar file. Please experts help me with my problem. would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
