So I got my jig and got into download... Now what. When I connect to AIO it says I need to enable usb, really how! Odin - start... Nothing. Odin - Master Clear... Nothing
Start odin first, then connect your phone. If nothing happens, try connecting it to a different usb port (one on the motherboard, at the back of your computer). If still nothing happens, chances are you don't have the proper drivers installed.
ok slow down, first off with AIO you DONT need download mode, you use it with your phone turned on normally and USB DEBUGGING on. the instructions are in AIO. read instructions, thats what they are there for.
also you dont need a jig unless the phone is bricked, there is the button method AND AIO uses ADB commands to AUTOMATICALLY put your phone into donwload when needed. and its only needed when using ODIN, some people need to open odin first, some not, but odin is the only time you use download mode.

Wish this were the case. I've been using this LAPTOP for several months. Just flashed a new rom to my sons Cappy. No this systems all go, its my Cappy that's no show
When you plug the phone in and download mode starts, does the COM show up on Odin? If it does, you're good to go otherwise you need to get different drivers or maybe try using a different USB port or restart the laptop.

Wild.. wonder if you just have a bad cable or failing usb port or something..
I had this happened last night. Just finally worked about about 5 or more times. Just took some patience and constantly trying multiple ways with different ports. Although I have never had this problem before. Usually only took a maximum 2 tries.

Hi Experts,
I have a Cappy and i love Continuum 5 ROM. I never miss any versions from beta2 to RC 3, everything is ok, but now when contimuum v5.1 was released. I tried to flash it but i got a big problem in that version. The first, i encountered Boot Loop issue while booting, but it's not the biggest problem, my cappy is still boot up to the home screen, and here everything was became very bad. My Cappy got lag and cant interact with return and it reboot automatic after that.
Now, when v5.1 was released, i believed it'll be fixed, but it's still exists. .
my cappy cant boot up to home screen. it repeats booting to continuum animation and restart forever.
can anybody give me a suggestion for turning my cappy back !!!!!!!! Please help
Did you have full battery? I made this mistake too... Be sure that you did everything correctly..
Sent from my captivate using XDA App
I would suspect you could simply use the 1-CLICK ODIN program to restore the phone then follow the steps carefully for 5.1 (which is a pretty awesome ROM btw)
I'm sure i charged full battery before flashing.

i flashed to stock room with odin3 1.7 (using PDA + PIT files. i did that successful many times with 2.2 ). but now, with 2.3.3 i got brick( maybe lost boot), although flashed by odin without any errors ( 1 succeed/ failed 0) .
now i cant make the cappy go to download mode. please helppppp.
3 buttons with no interaction !!
sounds like u flashed a stock rom that didnt have old bootloader, safe way to have done it is with non 3 button fix odinoneclick flash to stock. dunno if a JIG will help u get back into download mode

Use command command prompt. "/android" Then "adb shell" then "su" then "roboot download" might not work with adb but could give it a try

Your best bet is the jig. If that doesnt work then I would try and get a warrenty replacment. I went over the thread and it stated that if you get a bootloop you should boot into recovery and reflash the rom, did you do that?

If you lost bootloader then you will have to JTAG, if your under warranty you can say you were updating to froyo and it turned off and never turned back on

right. i got a bootloop when flash to v5.2. i tried to flash the rom in recovery mode many times, but it's still exists. even i flash back to RC3. i got only the android text animation on the screen.
thus i have to flash to the stock by that way. and now i got a brick
I've had problems in the past with getting to download mode on the cappy. I did some googling trying to find a way, ended up finding a very good page on it:
http://samsungcaptivate.wikia.com/wiki/Putting_the_Phone_into_Download_Mode
I hope that helps.
Had the same problem with my cappy. The problem is that after all you did, you have one bootloader from i9000 and another from i897. The jig won`t help. I`ve found the people that recovered the phone with JTAG.
First of all, I'm sorry if the answer is somewhere, I searched, but I "only" found many threads with suggestions for JIG use... The three stickies of Q&A also don't present related information I believe...
After some stuck situation in odin, I can't boot the phone. I get a yellow triangle, between a phone and a computer icons. Even if I try to charge the Phone, I get that static screen.
There's anything I can do without using JIG? I cannot enter download mode (at least with the traditional way), I always get that screen. As fair as I know, the phone is still 2.1 with official firmware (i was trying to apple the 2.3.6)

you are still in download mode, without a proper ROM, so just connect with ODIN and it will function once USB cable is plugged in and flash the correct i9000 gingerbread ROM for your location

I already have the drivers, they were installed back then when I tried to update the phone, so they are present now.
The problem is, I cant get out of the black screen of death.. in fact, I'm not sure if this model/version can enter download mode through combo keys, yesterday when the phone was borrowed to me, I tried and I couldn't, so I was using adb reboot download shell command - but anyway, the drivers are there.

Yes. I'm wondering if my Google Nexus S drivers didn't not conflicted with the drivers I installed. I don't know.
Well, I'll try with another laptop, if that don't work, is it advisable to use a jig connector from a "trusted" seller? I'm asking because I already saw a comment or two along the about blewed (is this a word?) up phones.
Hey mate had the same issue your gonna have to get a jig as a lot of the i9000's came with corrupted boot loaders so you can't get into download without the jig and the screen your on isn't download mode I know which one your talking about with the phone the triangle and the computer

Do I risk blowing up the phone using JIG?
No the jig basicly makes it so a certain voltage signal is sent to the CPU triggering download mode no risk at all

I tried with another laptop with very well configured drivers, and didn't worked. Still didn't detected by odin. When I tried with another galaxy it works, after entering download mode...
I'm not admired, because before the brick, I was not able to enter the download mode with como keys, I shouldnt be surprised that does not happen now..
Follow this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494493
1) Uninstall your drivers, and re-install the ones following the instructions and link above.
2) Pull your battery out for a few mins and then put it back in and go into download mode (power, volume down, home button).
3) Download stock + odin from the link above, and start odin, and connect phone to pc through usb.
Your phone should be detected -- this is where you got stuck right? I'll assume if its detected, the rest you can figure out (plus its in the link above)
Good luck bro!

That would be a good suggestion if could get into download mode Tried everything, including some other solutions that I found around the Web. Looks like the bootloader was corrupted since the beginning, and now that I need it more than ever (because the black screen of death phone-!-pc), I stucked until (hopefully) i get a JIG... Already bought one, have to wait a few days to receive it. Until then, I'm going to use a old nokia.
Jig is only option then install a stock gingerbread that will fix 3 button combos

(Sorry if I posted in wrong section)
I successfully upgraded my Pop to gingerbread 2.3.6 and rooted it. It was working fine for some days after which It got messed up
when I updated the titanium backup app from the market. The app asked for some su permissions and suddenly the screen went blank.
After that I realized that its a hard bricked. The screen is blank whatever I do. I searched for many tutorials to unbrick it but no fruitful results yet.
I tried a lot to enter download mode and after several attempts luckily the three button combo worked and it got shown in ODIN on some port connected.
When I started the process of firmware upgrade it gets stuck in "Connection Setup Phase".
Does USB Jig method is worth trying in this situation ??
Pease tell me the solution of it. I am attaching the screenshot of the ODIN. Please Please Please help.
Thanks a lot in advance...
what is on your mobile screen download mode or something like phone--!--computer picture
ok whatever try this
close Odin, turn off mobile, start Odin and put files turn on mobile in download mode connect the cable and start flashing
PS : phone--!--conputer shows on the screen when upgrade get fail, not to worry it is just like another version of Odin
until you can light up the mobile its not a hard brick
I will suggest you to use firmware which are available without bootloader as you were previously on gb, just to remove the risk of hard brick
nothing on screen

Tried every damn thing but ODIN gets stuck on connection setup step....
Okay, I have 2.3.3 installed on my Galaxy Si9000, I tried to root it with ODIN by using the CF-Root-JP6-v1.2-Busybox-1.17.1.tar file. it worked but then I was stuck on the bootscreen.
I was able to go on download mode and I tried using the T959VUVKJ6-REV00-home-low-CL694130.tar.md5 file this time.
It got near the end but then it failed. Now its stuck on the bootscreen and everytime I try and go on download mode, I get some pixels and then the boot screen again.
Help me some?
Looks like the tars you flashed weren't designated for the i9000. Try using a JIG to get into download mode.

Okay, I Have a JIG. Now what should I do?
Plug it into the phone. Does it start? If not, charge the battery and try again.
It works! its in download mode, but now I need to get the right files..
Any suggestions on what files I need?
You mean for enter the download mode? Just press vol down + home + power
