Hello all and thx in advance.
ATT Captivate batch 1010
I had Cognition 2.3 I think on my phone and it worked great however I wanted to try a different ROM so I attempted to restore my phone to stock using ODIN one click. I realized after that that I never disabled the voodoo lag fix or deleted my user data.
Now I am stuck in a boot loop that either shows the white ATT logo screen flashing every couple seconds or the phone off charge screen re starting every couple seconds.
I bought a USB Jig and it works great so I can get into D/L mode easily but I have tried flashing the stock firmware at least 6 times now using different machines, different ports, different versions of ODIN and I've searched around these forums and others for several hours trying to find a solution. It seems that I needed to erase my user data in recovery mode and removed the lag fix before I did this but it is what it is. I have tried to get to recovery mode to no avail. All I can get to is download mode.
Any ideas on what I should/can do?
any help will be greatly appreciated.

I think that you may need to use the Froyo Odin (JI6).

please help, i have the same problem, was flashing back to stock from a serendipit 5.12 so that i could get the 6.0 version... all went as planned until odin said "reset" which was my cue to unplug and that the process was complete.... i unplugged the phone and tried to reboot and now it does exactly as the first post described, at&t logo then black screen, then back to the at&t logo then black screen again... my computer doesnt recognize my phone none of the methods of getting to download screen will work... no matter how many times i pull the sd, sim, and batt, no matter the button combination i use or which order i use them in.... same result... i cant afford a new phone i need help, i will donate also... i knew this stuff was over my head, but "curiosity killed the cat" i guess...
I had the exact same problem. Try this method, it's the one that worked for me when all others failed... But remember to follow it EXACTLY.
1. Pull out the battery.
2. Hold Volume UP+DOWN (Don't let go of them until you see the download screen).
3. Stick in the USB (which is connected to the computer).
4. Put the battery back in.
If not, you might need to get a USB Jig.
That Froyo Odin link worked!
Thanks guys I flashed to Froyo and it worked!
I've since flashed clockwork recovery and gotten Serendipity 6.1
As far as getting into download mode I had to use one of the USB jigs.
I ordered one from the guy who does the rom reviews but you could make one as well.
On another note the new ROM seems to be discharging my battery really fast
Before I start investigating it as a problem I am going to charge it completely then let it discharge completely to calibrate it.
Thanks again guys

I just fixed mine last night, I had the exact same problem because of the exact same upgrade. What you need to do is get or make a usb jig. There's a couple resources around here for how to do it.
Here's a video showing how to make one:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rdn5GoRjhn0
Once I got my phone into download mode, I used Darky's ROM Resurrection Edition ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=940671 ) to restore my phone. Just scroll down to where it says "Files Needed" and download the Captivate version. Once you have that downloaded, use the jig to put your phone into download mode and follow the directions in the Darky's video (jump to about 2:30 into the video). Once I had my phone booting, I used clockwork to install Serendipity 6.
Hope that helps you as much as it helped me!!
went to radio shack, got all the stuff to make a jig and i was able to get my phone into download mode! now to try darko...... thanks everyone!
odin doesnt reconize phone
which odin3 are you using? 1.7? or the one click to stock?
you mentioned you had the bootloop problem before, so you should be using odin 1.7 with 2.2 stock.
open odin
get phone into download mode with your nice jig
unplug jig and plug in computer
box in odin should turn yellow.
And make sure you have the correct drivers installed. CRUCIAL.

Have u tried the Odin or Heimdall One Clicks in the development stickied thread ??
Sent by XDA Premium App
Yep, tried the Odin one click - caught in a boot loop with the AT&T Logo. I have yet to try the Heimdall one.
UPDATE
Tried Odin and Heimdall One-Clicks - unsuccessful. I'm think I will need the stock Eclair firmware file with Odin and the pit file.

You ever get this to work? - I'm in a similar situation. all flashes 'work' but get stuck at ATT on boot. Not sure Eclair is an option or not since mine is a refurbished phone that started on 2.2

If one-clicks aren't working, you might need to grab the full version of Heimdall or Odin and flash a full package. Some of the newer phone builds don't like one-clicks.

Do you thing we can revive this device?
Sorry for my english and thank you for speding time to reading this
It looks like you have a signed bootloader.
I could revive my tab as followed:
Go to http://www.samfirmware.com/ download the JJ4 firmware, flash that firmware, including rom, modem & CSC with partition on.
Your Tab will probably come to life then.
Then you can upgrade from there on, if you like.
I hope this will work for you too.
have the same problem (P1000, neverlocked)
JJ4 is one i didnt try ... would have a look, hope it would work
tried until now
P1000XWJMI
P1000XWJMK
P1000XXJHA
P1000XXJI2
P1000XXJI4
P1000XXJK5
P1000XXJMA
P1000XXJME
but no one of these helped. Some only let me use the DL mode, others would reactivate the soft buttons, but no chance for get a Android boot :/

dap,jj4 not working i mean odin succes but no bootloding or recovery
Frantech.
Just follow what rwa66 said, I had exacly the same issue and he helped me getting my tab up and running:
1- Download and flash JJ4
Your tab might be still stuck on the boot logo. Just turn it off, then go to download.
2 Flash GB 2.3.3 (following Chainfire instructions ) and your tab will boot normally.

Pong0820,
JJ4 is a full ROM it should resolve the csc errors. Even if your tab doesn't boot or gets stuck on boot, flash again GB 2.3.3
Good luck

i have disconnect manualy. and show this error...
help me please !
man,really i dont know much about verizon,t-mobil,i have european tab...but about movinant failed because you use wrong pit with that rom you flash(maybe i am wrong but it happend to me)
I'm in a similar situation. Battery ran out during Odin process. Now it won't acknowledge the Tab when plugged in. I've put it on charge but still nothing. Is there any way I can solve this?
leave odin on,your tab conected and wait for odin to find yout tab(minutes,hours)
try first with wall charger few hours.....and then follow instructions on this topic or whatever you want to do
thanks frantech.
The issue is that my screen is completely blank. Can't get it even in to download mode. No combination of buttons does anything and connecting it to the computer doesn't even trigger that a usb device has been connected.
Is the only option to just leave it there with Odin?
IT IS WORKED!!! How AMAZING it is!!
OMG DUDE IT IS REALLY WORKED!!!

hi i have a samsung galaxy s i got it given and thought i could follow some guides to unbrick it, it turns on and goes too the samsung galaxy s screen and wont pass it then after a while turns off, if i plug it into comp or charger empty battery with a round thing in the middle comes on and thats about it no movement or anything, i couldnt get into download mode or recovery so i got my self a jig and then could get into download mode folloewed various guides using different rom/firmwares fro tese tutorials and odin says it was successfull but i still cant get past the galaxy screen, but i can now get into download mode now with out the juse of jig but still no luck passing the galaxy s screen, currently got I9000XWJM5 with pit 512. i cant get sdk to work too as my comp wont pick it up so i cant force it into recoery mode this way any help please or am i wastin my time on a proper brick
thanks nick
Hey bud, if you think of the galaxy s as a computer for a sec....you have the BIOS right? It sounds to me that your galaxy s "BIOS" is corrupt. Are you sure your flashing firmware correctly? Pit, PDA, modem/phone, csc, also make sure repartition is ticked too, go back to Froyo XXI9000JPU and let me know if you need help OK?

The best thing I can advise you to do then bud is send it off to Samsung, and blame it on kies, that's what I did and they fixed mine for free under warranty, sorry I couldn't be more help bud
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
Before you do that try a Darky Odin rom. Some stock roms do not have all the right files (as you do not need them I think with kies and if not re partitioning). Worth a shot. Let us know the results.
also may want to try a wipe and format of the cache and data and db_data partitions from recovery (can you get to recovery?)
Usually you are not hard bricked if you can get to download mode. You may still have a screwed phone with a hardware failure (but not one like any I've seen described) but you're not bricked.
Edit: working on another thread here with a similar situation. Try another version of Odin (like EZ odin) I know I had one that just would not work.

Hi everyone,
this is my first post and believe me i took every measure before deciding to post, i searched, googled and searched some more but nothing helps.
Here is my problem, i'm on a At&T Galaxy S i897 i recently downloaded the ODIN software with a i897 500mhz .tar file to root my phone, i successfully got the phone to connect on a PC and loaded the .tar on the PDA area and clicked root.
ODIN ran the process until the zImage part and now my phone is stuck after removing it from the usb cable after 20 mins had passed.
My phone now shows an icon of a telephone and a computer monitor with an exclamation point in between them, it won't go out of that screen.
I am able to get my phone into download mode and have tried to run a stock 2.2 rom but nothing works, it stays at zImage.
Now i've read a couple of things that seem to be hit or miss but i don't know what to try, only thing i've read is using another usb cable which i will buy tomorrow to see if that works but knowing my luck it won't.
I don't have Kies installed but do have the samsung drivers installed so Kies is not the issue, no firewall or antivirus on the PC.
Can anyone please help me out, i just want my phone to work and hopefully root it.
Thanks to all.
The kernel u flashed was just to get Root and that is all (I'm just guessing). Since u can get into download mode just flash back the kernel that u had running before and u should still have Root. Or use an Odin/Heimdall One Click to get to a Stock Firmware (See the Stickied Thread in the Development Forum).
Give more info about what u flashed and what android platform/version u are/were on, etc. The more info, the easier it is to give the more accurate help to ya. Thx.

Hi,
well i have stock android 2.2, i used speedmod-kernel-i897-k13c-500hz .tar.
I've tried using others but none work, Odin always gets stuck at some point and i have to unplug.
I never got to root it gave me the soft brick when i unplugged.
Heimdall One click won't work, i'm on a mac and it won't work there, phone not recognized, on my pc i have xp and it won't let me run the one click even if i run as admin.
So i'm stuck, really stuck.
Should i go get a new cable?
Check out the "Connection Issues..." Stickied Thread by jmtheiss in the General Forum and also the "Guide..." by TRusselo that is Stickied in the Q&A Forum.

If you plug your phone in while Odin is running and you get the yellow connection symbol you can re flash any kernel. like 4-2ndtwin said, search the STIKIED threads and find the stock 2.2 kernel and loads it into odin and re flash it.
when you get that little phone exclamation point and PC icon and no booting, but you can still get odin to turn yellow when you plug your phone in you can almost always re flash.
good luck, hope it works out.
I've been in the same situation before.
The problem is that ODIN freezes always at some point of the flash, it recognizes the phone but always freezes, i have done everything right and follow all the guides, there's something just not right about this, it shouldn't freeze all the time
Try Heimdall (not one click).

Well i'm on a windows 7 PC now and still can't get it to unbrick, i tried using odin again and stuck on zImage.
One click gives me a exe file called one click loader when i runt it it asks to install heimdall i say yes and it throws this error: Problem while executing heimdall.exe in shell.sendShellCommand
I just want to flash i guess and get my phone back, it goes into download mode with no problem and it just shows the phone and pc icons but it wont start so i know its soft bricked. Can anyone help me fix it please, i've done just about every method i can find and nothing works.
You are doing something wrong with Heimdall. Go to Apex ROM website, get Heimdall, get Apex tar, get latest Java 6 JRE, run Heimdall as "java -jar Heimdall.jar".
When pompted point to Apex.tar - flash with booloaders.
Edit:
Found this page on the site:
http://apexromcaptivate.weebly.com/installation-instructions1.html
Is that it?
Also how do i run Heimdall as java -jar Heimdall.jar?
It asks me to: flash to stock JF6 but how do i do that?
Problem fixed, it was the cable.

Hey everyone!
I followed the Cyanogenmod guide from cm's website on how to install cm 10 on rooted att captivate from android 2.2 froyo.
I followed the guide exactly up to installing cwm recovery via heimdall on a windows 7 (heimdall wouldn't work on an xp I have so I switched to my 7) and everything worked as it said it would, however after finishing and getting the blue bar on the download mode screen, I held the vol up/down and pwr keys per the guide and the phone went to the att logo screen that it shows when you first turn it on and it just flashes that screen.
I can get into download mode still but it won't go into the options screen to hard reset or use cwm recovery.
I rooted it using the superoneclick method and I backedup with titanium.
I haven't been able to find anyone on xda or any other site with the same problem as me (everyone with a similar problem had a different version of android or something so I was afraid to try the solutions given for them.)
Please Help!! Thank you so much in advance!!

How long should/could it take Odin to detect/recognize my captivate? I couldn't wait to try the KK4 flash, but I've waited for about 10 minutes and it's not showing anything in Odin.:\
It should only take a few seconds.

Well I've been up all night lol but I got everything to work!! I guess it all just clicked with me and I understood and found all the answers in threads. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! Your link and Odin one click worked perfect. I think I had a problem with the drivers, that's why it wouldn't detect it. I read in another thread it could be that and I tried reinstalling the Samsung drivers but no luck. So I just switched to my windows xp where I'd never used heimdall drivers(I was on my windows 7) and did it on there, worked perfectly! I then went on to reinstall cwm and then cm 10.1.2 and I love it! Now I'm waiting for the Google play store .zip to download so I can flash it onto my i897! THANKS AGAIN!!! :thumbup:
