How to Flash a Kernel - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

how come when i d/l a kernel
I897UCKJ3 Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread
Stock
from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
it's a 6mb file or something. How do i use a .tar? I tried opening Odin 1.85. but what do i load it as? PDA, PHONE?
Sincerely,
Semi-confused

like Boog's KJ3 Kernel. I don't have CWM, so i need to flash that kernel to move on with Illuimance. But how do i used ODIN to do that?

Place kernel in PDA and hit start. (MAKE SURE repartition is UNchecked).

i did, but it doesn't do anything to the phone.
Debugging or DL?
ODIN recognizes phone in debugging, but not DL mode for some reason...

repartition unchecked, and the .tar loaded to PDA slot.
i click start, but it just says (.../failed 1)

Put your phone in download mode first.

You have to be on download mode. Try rebooting your computer or using main USB port. Also checking drivers and cable also helps.
sent from awesomness

U have to be in download mode. Right click on Odin and run it as admin, also if it still fails try a different primary usb port (1st one on a laptop or the ones in the back of pc that connect to the motherboard). Removing sdcard (if u have one) and sim wouldn't hurt if ur still facing issues.
Dang it viny beat me to it

i run "I897UCKJ3 Stock without BL" as admin
i put phone in download mode (hold vol + and -, plugin usb, put in battery)
but nothing happens with ODIN

i changes USB ports, and now it shows up in ODIN. But it is stuck at :

Do U see a yellow indicator on Odin saying something like COM6 or some other number? If not than Odin is not seeing ur phone....high chances of faulty data cable...happened to me....i changed the cable worked like charm
EDIT: Even the above scenerio can be caused by faulty cable

yeah it sees it as COM5.
i plugged the phone in (download screen didn't pop up) but ODIn still recognized it, i hit start, and it's working now (just a blue status bar progressing across the bottom) So i guess it's going to work now? odd...
thanks though. I've had crazy misfortune with this phone so far.

yep... working like a charm. (finally)

Don't get me wrong, we are glad to help you and everyone else, but pls do a lil reading before u start flashing things next time (for your sake). These questions are answered almost if not daily, the first 2 pages usually have ur answers, if not then use the search button.

yes... it is working

Galaxy S Dead (not like the other ones)

Hi all guy's,
i have a realy strange problem , i tried to find a solution on this forum and on the net but i didn't find nothing
Today i was trying to change firmware by Odin (it was not my first time) , i used not my home pc ( like i did many time) but another one, opned odin, load the firmware , plugged in the galaxy in download mode and i clicked on start (obiviusly odin showed my galaxy s) but program stuck and on galaxy screen there wasn't the progress bar as usually. After five minutes i unplugged the phone and i rebooted it, on screen there was the computer and the phone with the yellow esclmation point.
i unplugged the battery and than i putted the galaxy s in download mode (vol down+ power+ home button), than i rebooted the pc, i deleted all the tons samsung modem drvier installed on windows xp (i think this was the problem of the bad flash on odin) , opend again odin, plugged the phone on the pc but nothing happned, the pc didn't recognized the phone (not like the others) , i connected the phone to usb to the computer and nothing happned how if i wouldn't connect nothing on pc. Obiviusly Odin didn't recognized the phone and kies also. I went on another pc , i installed kies , than odin, and i connected my phone and i had the same truble, when i conect my phone to the computers is like if i don't connect nothing, becouse nothing happen on computer. My galaxy go in download mode but the computer's don't recognize it!
did you try another usb cable? maybe your cable is damage... just covering solutions...
I don't think your galaxy is dead, as long as you can access the download mode you should be ok.
Try with different usb ports/cables/computers.
But it sounds most likely that your drivers aren't installed properly. You shouldn't have uninstalled them in the first place if they were working lol (it's unlikely the driver caused bad flash, it either works or it doesnt!)
plug it in the computer without the battery or simcard or memorycard, do it in windows and not in Odin. Then try to connect to Odin.

Welcome to SGS Bricked Club (unofficial)
Your phone is not dead, just bricked.
Do this
1. Re-install all your Kies to get SGS USB driver (you shouldn't have uninstall it in the first place)
2. Switch your phone to download mode
3. On Odin, select 512 pit (ONLY), and checked "Re-partition" option
4. Connect your phone and USB (remember, download mode first > Odin > USB Connect)
5. Click Start on Odin
6. Wait until Odin turn green with "SUCCESS"
7. Click Reset on Odin
8. flash what ever firmware you want, accordingly
Without trying to be too optimistic, as well as not being too much of a downer, I've had that particular "phone ! computer" screen a few times and not had any problems flashing with Odin later. Usually takes a couple of PC and phone reboots but like someone said, as long as you can get to the recovery (android at work) screen one way or another, you *should* be fine.
I've got that problem also many times and have seen the "phone-to-pc" screen, too. Take a look into your Device Manager under modem before you plug in the phone. After you plugged in the phone is there a modem displayed? My Problem is that Windows change the Driver through CDMA Modem for Samsung and with that Driver odin doesn't work. I've managed that problem by changing the machine or the port for a new driver select.
frak!!! krap! i think my phone is krapped out.
although i can get to download mode, i can not get to recovery mode
when you flash official firmware, are you supposed to flash with re-partition checked, the pit and the pda file all at once?
cuz i get stuck on...

anyone got any tips or ideas?
dumb... after 6 hours of fiddling... the one thing i didn't do was try on a different usb input.
however, i still can not explain the green, blue, or pink freeze screens
ps. thanks roy, your help and concern helped me profoundly (seriously)

sorry to hear this mate, I personally never experience this.
Mind share your Odin setup for flashing?
ok guy's some of you didn't focus my problem (maybe becouse of my crap english) anyway the problem wasn't how to go in download mode but the problem was another one, once i was in download mode the computer didn't recognize the phone, it was like if i wouldn't put nothing in the usb, and well it wasn't a usb clabel, usb port, driver or some other things but it was soemthing fuked up with my phone.
The following procedure is not needed if you have some problem with driver but only if your computer defintly don't show nothing when u plug the phone in download mode after a bad flash.
Turn off the phone and unplug the battery, connect the phone to the computer, wait a minute than click the 3 keys for put the phone in download mode (vol down+home+power) and plug in the battery. Your computer should recognize soemthing and u will be able with the correct driver and Odin program to flash the phone again. Your phone should be usb connected all the time or the procedure don't work.
I have another bug now and i don't know if it's related to the firmware(i tried on jm6 and jm7) or there is something wrong with my phone usb.
When i turn on my phone randomly don't work the sound selection on the menu and when i tap the number on the phone keyboard. If i plug in the phone on the pc i'm not able to use kies or other things like mass storage but on the phone start the music player (like if i would plug in the headphone) and the bug get fix.
When the bug come if i not plug in the phone on the computer the ringtone work if i get a call but n the phone there is the handsfree option activate.
I don't know what to do and i hope u understand my problem even if my english sux hard
Thanks for your attenction
EDIT: guy's the bug is not related to the firmware (i didn't have it first of yesterday), i tried now the jg5 and i still to have the same problem as on the jm6 and jm7 , sometimes randomly the button sounds don't work when i'm in the menu or when i'm making a telephon number even if the option is enable in the menu. for fix it how i write up herei need plug in the phone cable on the computer or turn off and than turn in again till it get fix.

You haven't got a captivate then?
the proper ROM wouldn't be on this forum but the captivate's one, but when guessing you're actually in possession of a i9000m; why not a i9000 rom from the i9000 section?
cos a i897 is a galaxy captivate, doesn't seems wrong when you have one? =/

And once again epic fail.
Your phone is bricked now, go and exchange it.
I think that last hope is try to forcing download mode with "resistor on usb port" method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551
Thanks guys,
What is bad is,that every time i try to connect with usb or charger the phone turns off and nothing shows on the screen,once i remove the cable the phone turns on normaly.Maybe i can still go in download mode by changing the configuration of the buttons,couse cativante has 4 buttons and galaxy 3,the think is that home button has no function and back touch button become home thats way i cannot go into download mode no home button.If nothing will work i gues i have to follow Jonsat's advice.I still have hope that someone nows and shares with as.
Thanks !!!!!!!!!!!

Man, i have an idea:
1) Download z4root from market, root ur phone;
2) Download Rom Manager and flash recovery;
3) Download a Rom in which u have the extend power menu;
4) Flash Rom;
5) Boot into Rom and enter in the extend power menu;
6) From the extended power menu press "Reboot into download mode";
7) Flash from Odin.
PS: if your power menu button doesn't go well u should download from the market apps that emulate the power button menu!
I know it's a crazy idea but in my opinion you should try!

I have exactly the same problem, the pc recognize the phone just as unkown device.
Witch driver do I need to get Odin to work?
Thanks in advance
I need some help here. My phone went dead during charging yesterday..... it was fine one moment and last check was at 80%. Then about 10 min later when I wanted to unplu & use... it was not responding at all. Noticed that the phone was rather warm as well.
I've been running "Insane" kernel for a week with overclock to 1200 and under volt about -75 across the board. Did I fry the chip???
Phone is not respondingf at all. Doesn't charge, cannot boot, cannot do into download or recovery mode, PC does not even see it when plugged in, pulled battery & re-insert does not help.
What other options do I have??? Last resort is to bring back to the service centre, but I'm afraid that they will not give warranty for it if checked that I have an "Insane" kernel.
Advise & feedback please. Any other areas to check?

Trying to flash back to stock

I'm trying to flash back to stock but can't get it to work.
I've tried using I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0 to flash back but it sticks at sbl.bin and then the screen on my phone turns off.
I tried using Odin with the JH2 firmware but it just sits at modem.bin
I've flashed to JF6 before and it always worked but now i can't seem to get it to work. I have perception installed right now, not sure what version.
Any help would really be appreciated.

Get into download mode by holding volume +/- and plugging in your USB cable.. DO NOT press power!
Once in download mode (you'll see a yellow triangle and the android guy shoveling) start up Odin and it should flash.
Goodluck!

does it normally take a long time to process that file? When i used to do it, it would flash really quickly.
No that flashes almost immediately. Pull battery, leave out for ten minutes or so, try again.

I had that happen to me as well. I ended up rebooting my computer and phone a few times and it ended up flashing.
Like mcord11758 said above, sbl.bin should flash almost immediately. The entire flashing processes shouldn't stall.
I finally got it to flash.
I reinstalled XP Pro on an older dell laptop and it finally worked!
Does anyone know why it works sometimes but not others?

Nope, you really do not need to flash stock to change roms. As you can see flashing stock has its risk

Not even ODIN want's to play!

So I've decided to try a new rom on my Samsung Captivate and in the upgrade process the USB became loose. I use a mac but I borrowed a friends Windows 7 laptop so I could use ODIN
It showed a phone--!--computer image
I learned how to fix it using Odin.
Downloaded ODIN3. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989
1. Pull the battery, sim card, and external SD card.
2. Start ODIN3. (with admin privs and without)
3. Insert your battery, then press and hold the volume buttons.
4. Connect the phone to your PC.
I've tried both start & master clear here is what I get.

How do I use it now that I have it?
After hours of struggle and fighting with my Captivate it saw things my way... and decided that it would like to be used again and after about 200 ODIN attempts it finally worked but with toolbox 2.5 (3.0 kept giving me errors) Its back on stock and I'm very happy. Thanks for the toolbox idea! Worked great!

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S won't come on after flash

Hello All,
I tried flashing my phone (to I9000XXJVS)
I've only gotten to step 11, which flashes the phone.
In ODIN, I selected PIT, PDA, PHONE and CSC. All 4 had files.
I selected the following options:
Re-Partition, Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time
While flashing, I got the following messages
<ID:0/005> boot.bin
<ID:0/005> Sbl.bin
<ID:0/005> param.lfs
<ID:0/005> factoryfs.rfs
<ID:0/005> dbdata.rfs
<ID:0/005> cache.rfs
<ID:0/005> zImage
<ID:0/005> modem.bin
<ID:0/005> cache.rfs
<ID:0/005> dbdata.rfs
<ID:0/005> Completed..
<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 1 / failed 0)
<ID:0/005> Removed!!
I switched off the phone and tried to turn it back on.
It won't come one at all. It's not showing anything.
It won't even go into recovery mode.
It won't go into download mode.
Pls help.
Take the battery out for 15 minutes and then replace and see if it powers back on.
If it still wont turn on or go into download mode using the key combination then try using a USB JIG.
What rom did you try flashing?
I'm trying to go to Gingerbread 2.3.5 I9000XXJVS.
I waited 15 mins. Still nothing.
Even when I put in the cable through USB, nothing shows up. Normally it shows that it's charging.
See screenshot of my ODIN configuration while flashing:
Try and plug your phone into the PC and then try the 3 button combo with the cable attached.
No difference. Still won't come on.
I hope the board is not fried.
Very strange...
I cant view the image you posted at the moment to see if files were put in the right places because im on works ancient internet browser but from what you wrote in the OP the flash appears to have gone ok...
Might be worth getting a JIG and trying that. If that doesnt work maybe its time for the unbrickable mod.
REALLY stupid question but you have flashed the right firmware for your device right?
I would give the JIG a try. You can buy one from ebay for like less than £5 GBP or you can throw one together youself.
Did the phone reboot fully after the flash before you turned it back off?
Yes, the flash went OK.
What do you mean by the right firmware? I got the firmware from samfirmware. I actually new to this.
And what's a JIG? How do I put one together?
The phone didn't reboot. The screen was blank but kinda slightly lighted. So I tried powering it up but it didn't so I removed the battery.
I got the JIG. I'll try to build one myself.
I'll let you know if it works.
One more thing: the battery was kinda low when I started this operation.
I'm thinking maybe the battery ran out.
But it's not even charging when I plug it in.
What i mean is do you have an i9000 and not an i9000M or another variant of the i9000 and have tried to flash a firmware from an i9000 onto an i9000M or i9000B for example.
I wish i could see that picture you posted to have a better look.
In the PDA box you should have had a file called PDA or CODE... The modem box should have had MODEM or PHONE... and then CSC should have had CSC...
There should have been a PIT file in the PIT box...
You should have had repartion ticked... auto reboot ticked and auto F reset ( ithink its called that ) ticked.
The update bootloader and other check boxes that are below the 3 i mentioned should all have been unticked.
I use a GT-i9003
in PDA i have CODE...
in PHONE i have MODEM...
in CSC i have GT...
in PIT i have a .pit file
I had all three boxes ticked (Re-Partition, Auto Reboot, F. Reset Time)
All other checkboxes were unchecked.
It looks like you have flashed incompatible firmware onto your device.
You have flashed firmware for the i9000 which wont work on the i9003.
You have gone into the wrong section on Samfirmware.com. There is a seperate section for the i9003.
You can still try the JIG trick but im not sure if that will work either on your device as the hardware may be slightly different and require a different resistor value to force download mode but im not sure about that part...
It looks like you have flashed bootloaders onto your device that wasnt designed for it which could mean a hard brick.
Maybe the unbrickable mod will help you out.
Im not too sure how to help you from this point on im afraid if you cant get download mode working...
Have a good search through google and see if you can find any helpful information.
Other thing is to say you had an update for it and it broke your phone and try and play dumb and see what happens =/.
I hope you can get it sorted mate.

Software broken samsung galaxy s1 (i9000)

3 things for I start 1 I'm bat in English because I'm dutch sorry for that if you don't understand a sentence just ask I will try to explain it 2 I'm also bad in making sentences that's why you don't see any dots Sorry for that to and the third thing is I'm not at bad at rooting or installing custom roms did it on my galaxy tab 3 no problems also on my cousins phone also no problems same as that from my mother.
I have for a long time my galaxy s1 like 3 years now I had it rooted and installed the Cyanogen mod (nightly form the 5th of April) and it was jut working fine I just update once in the moth or so always the lasts nightly but when I did updated for the newest nightly for that day (11th of may update) and when it restarted it was just stuck at the boot screen so I got the battery out waited 5 minutes and put it back in end reboot it did that like 3 times but every time it was stuck at the boot screen so I searched on Google but nothing works because Odin(3.0.7 also 3.0.9) fails to make connection or it was stuck at the nand write start
all what I tried was in the odin:
use an other cable
other pc / laptop
other usb ports (used always the back of the pc)
other packages for odin
other odin versions
I also tried using heimdall also no success
and after trying this all my phone even get worse when it was stuck i can only access download mode
recovery wasn't able any more so I also set the root package not on the pda from odin but on phone and when i booted the phone I get into an old recovery of cwm but he was not able to mount my storage or something else after just trying around with odin and a little heimdall no success now I can only access download mode and odin sees my phone but it doesn't matter where I put any package it just loads normal and when it needs to reboot it is just black screen it makes connection but it stops if I put the root package in the pda or a phone package in the phone sections then it stops at nand write start I tried to re-partition it with different pit files but also no success
*edit a friend said ty using odin 1.3.0 but now odin said this
