[Q] Captivate wont go in any mode?

Hey guys,
I searched everywhere, and could not find an answer. Heres what happened:
Messed up Cyanogen install, so I used a One Click installer to go back to stock.
Once stock, popped phone in download mode, and used Odin to flash the CM7 kernel. Odin said PASS
Unplugged USB and held both volume rockers and the power button.
Phone rebooted (i let go at the ATT screen), and it now sticks at the Galaxy S / cyanogen(mod) screen.
I have tried these methods (for both download and recovery mode)
Held both rockers and plugged in USB (the battery just came up)
Put battery in, held one rocker at a time and power
Tried ADB, but it can't find the device.
Also tried holding all three buttons (both volume rockers and power) and the phone did the same thing.
Odin won't pick it up, ADB won't pick it up, and it seems that I can't get into Download or Recovery mode.
Any ideas? Just I just buy a Jig to go into download mode?

Had that happen to me when I tried to ditch cm7 and go back to stock so I could flash serendipity. I lost my 3 button combo flashing cm7 for some reason.. worked fine before cm7 for both recovery and download mode, and neither worked after flashing cm7.
Solution is to just use a jig to go back to stock and flash a new rom from there. Or you can do what I did and use a jig to go back to stock, then flash cog 4.2 or something that includes an sbl with the 3 button fix.

Hi ..
The same thing happened on my phone yesterday i was trying to install the MIUI rom on my phone.
The phone is stuck on the Galaxy S Cyanogen Mod Screen .
ADB doesn't detect my phone.
I never had the 3 button combo working on my Captivate for AT&T.
I used the adb commands to enter recovery and download mode..
Now Since the phone itself is not getting detected i can't even use adb commands.
What do i Do next.??
Please help..
would really appreciate suggestions...
thnks...

Get a jig, saved my phone a few weeks ago after a bad rom install.

[Q] Galaxy S doesn't boot!!!!! :'(

I was running Android 4.0 ICS custom rom on my Galaxy S I9000 (international version), and everything was okay.today, I turned it off, and then I tried to turn it on again normally, but it kept showing the vivd colors screen without continuing. I remembered that the same problem occurred with me before on 2.3.3, and the solution was a simple odin-flashing of just one file. The problem now is that I couldn't remember which exactly of the 4 files in odin this one is (it's the one responsible for mounting the sdcard), and I connected my device while in downloading mode and recklessly flashed only PIT file (with other fields empty). Now the device doesn't boot at all, as if there is no source of energy within. Can the Company's customer support here fix it anyway or is this its end?!!!!!!

Remove te battery and put it back in. With the 3 button combo go to download mode and flash a 3 file firmware.

Try to boot in download mode (vol down + Home + Power) and flash CWM again!

[Q] Galaxy S2-M250S can't boot and can't go to Recovery Mode

Hello!
Now my Galaxy S2 can't boot, it keeps stuck at the logo Samsung Galaxy SII and it can't go to Recovery Mode either when pressing Volume Up + Home + Power. By the way, it still can get into Download Mode
So I tried to flash offcial rom 4.0.3 but nothing happened, after that I tried to flash official rom 2.3.6 and the issue didn't resolve.
Pls help me to resolve this issue.
Many thanks!!!

look brother .. first of all this forum is for I9000 not I9100 , secondly you should download an official rom with three parts and flash it through odin with re-partition checked

Thanks bro!
I'm sorry for my mistake because I'm just a newbie in this amazing 4rum. Will try to never let it happens again.

[Q] Galaxy Notescreen problem

After upgrad my mum's Galaxy Note ( from HK ) to Android 4.1.2, the screen can't turn on!!
After I press the power button to turn it on, the GT-N7000 logo will show for a while and than the screen just wnt all dark and nothing
When I try to go to recovery mode, the same situation appear
But when I go to download mode, is all find
Can anybody help me plz !!

How did you upgrade, odin, OTA, kies?

You can go into download mode.
So: Download a stock Rom (the JB release for Hongkong) and install it with PC Odin.
If you have errors in Odin tell us.
Or maybe everything is ok and after that your mum has a working device and a lovely sun again.

[Q] Soft Bricked Mini2?... Help plz

Hi guys, so i got a new Mini2, and... messed with it, pulled a firmware version from a dif zone by mistake... after i had cwm jena and clockworkz working, installed that asian firmware, and never got the phone to work again, tried several stock rom installs (17 and counting, with/without jena firmware download also), it just keeps doing the boot loop, and i can't access the Recovery menu (vol +/- home power buttons at start).
I've been reading all the meaningful threads here, tried doing button combination with battery, without and nothing seems to work.
Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

go to download mode and don't accept terms (up volume) and quick hold recovery combination when it will start to reboot (ofc when samsung logo will appear don't hold keys). Try few times and it will work, if not 1st then another time. Do factory restet, reboot phone and take off battery. Turn on in download mode and install MD1 XEO stock and do again factory reset using trick from above (go to download mode and don't accept terms (up volume) and quick hold recovery combination when it will start to reboot.)

You sir... you are my new hero! key trick is pressing the recovery combination quick before logo appears and ... guess what i was holding the damn buttons so hard i was thinking they'd eventually lose pressure
My mini2 is alive :angel:

I'm glad to help you cheers

I have similar problem:
1. no recovery mode, only download mode
2. no matter what stock firmware I flash using odin I get bootloop
I tried the trick to go download mode > reject codition and then press the recovery mode combination but did not work
I wonder if there is a Cyanogen firmware in tar.md5 format so I can flash with odin ?

Did flash a incompatible kernel? Try flashing stock kernel, recovery adn ROM.
