thanks for your advie but flashing the speedmod kernel in ODIN onnly gives me a FAIL. =( gonna try a one click but thanks for the info about getting odin to run

so i tried odin one click and it freezes up when it wants to set partitions never even begins.... now odin seems like its freezing up cant even get a kernel flash to run

everything fails when i try to flash via odin! im frustrated as F**K

R u trying to flash the kernel ".tar" through Odin ??
U could try Heimdall instead of Odin.
Or if u have Root, use SGS Kernel Flasher by NELDAR from Google Play Store.

No, you'll still need to use a computer-based Odin/Heimdall to flash bootloaders.
(That's what the IBL/PBL items are that are greyed out in the application.)

well i have tried this it's flashing to jf6 using cezar flash like a breeze but problem flashing to jf6 the market cant find the mobile odin. and even you dl it on sd card it wont let you install on jf6 stock so i have tried installing the stock leak of kk4 while i was on a i9000 base rom now if you purchase this on market it allows you to automaticaly download the kernel needed to flash now problem here is if your build prop is not tweak to samsung-sgh-i897 build prop it will download the i9000 base kernel which will mess up your flashing and end up on a bootloop going to stock kk4 so still kinda fresh its a go and miss some times it work sometimes end a bootloop this also it does not flash the bootloader from the stock rom so i suggest before you go to stock gb rom flash a captivate base gb loader but got to admit chainfire is really a beast to make an odin on a phone so purchase the app to support him
Can this tool flash .bin file?
please use periods. and sentences. PLEASE.

GO READ THE FRIGGIN THREAD!
Good work Devs
Do you have a direct link or mirror for v1.20? Tried the version on the market and still getting not compatible.
link in the first post, links to his thread, and it has links to the app. also I think it checks compatibility by reading the build.prop, what's wrong are you running and have you messed with your build.prop
Running MIUI. No, not edited build.prop.
well miui is probably the answer, might want to let the Dev know so he can fix that, if possible.
Ok, will do. Thanks
Not compatible with teamhacksung ICS build 6 either.

team hacksung's ICS port uses the CM7 partitioning table, and Mobile odin doesnt support re-partitioning. so ya. of course it dont and wont ever work.

[Q] Cant root captivate

Hello, I'm trying to root my samsung captivate. I originally flashed 2.3.5 using Odin a couple weeks before the official update came out. I remember seeing reinstall packages appear in the recovery screen before then but now its gone, completely vanished and I am left with the inability to root my phone. Can anyone help me?
Download 7.0A corn kernel (Odin version, not cwm) found on the development section. Flash it using Odin under PDA slot. Then use three button combo to go recovery and install root from there.
If you don't like corn kernel, search for fugu root and follow the OP instructions.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
^ Agreed
and fyi to the OP...search before u start a new thread, because this very subject has been threaded a bunch to say the least.
Thanks, I will give that a try in hopes that it works. NExt time I will make sure to post in pre-existing threads!
ok, I think im retarded because I cant find the kernel d/l. Do either of you have a link to where I can d/l it?

i need help in rooting

plz guys i want to root my device galaxy s with 2.3.6 baseband version i9000BUJV5 and build number gingerbread.BUJVI plz guys im waiting cause i want to do a recovery to my phone to upgrade it with ice cream
thank you verry much
hi,
take a look here :
http://www.homeforgeeks.com/mobile/root-galaxy-s-i9000-value-pack-xxjvu/
but i dont have the XXJVU the i dont know if i have the BUJV5 or the BUJVI ive wrote in the thread all the formations that i know cause im new at the android
hmm, I suppose you want save your application before flashing?
yes i want to root it and make a backup with titanium cause in recovery mode i cant find recovery or something like that
plz guys im waiting
So you got the i9000 and not the i9000b?
Flash cf-root kernel via. Odin.

Okay, then as i already said.
Get cf-root kernel, flash it via odin and baaam. There you got your root xP
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
but i dont know how to root it ive tried to search at google for a way to root BUJVI but i found nothing
Okay. Look for the cf-root kernel thread. Chainfire prepared a pre-rooted kernel for (almost? ) every firmware.
Look for the right one.
You know how to flash a kernel with odin?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
i dont know the way plz tell me
plz tell me all the steps cause im new at android
Download Odin. You should find it somewhere here on xda or google.
Download the cf-root kernel.
I think its a ".tar"-file.
Open odin.
If you have installed KIES, close both KIES-processes in the taskmanager.
Reboot phone into downloadmode. (Vol down + home + power)
Connect your phone via usb to your pc. A little box in odin should appear now and should say something like "Added".
Now press on the "pda"-button and browse to the cf-root kernel. Click start and if everything is done correctly, xour phone should reboot automatically. Now you should see the app "Superuser".
Hope this helps.
Anyway, im not responsible for any errors or damages to your phone
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
plz give me a link to download the compatible version for my galaxy s thank you very much i know that i bothered you
Okay.
Firt of all, here is the direct link to the CF-Root-Thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788108
Theres a step-by-step guide by chainfire too.
Download this kernel from his site:
http://download.chainfire.eu/123/CF-Root/SGS/CF-Root-XW_DBT_JVI-v3.7-CWM3RFS.zip
And flash it as mentioned in his thread with odin
Hope this will help you out
im i obliged to use that chanefire ??
No. You could use any other kernel from chainfire. Or you can use Semaphore, Galaxian, Talon, Speedmod or any other Gingerbread-Kernel.
You can either try the 1-Click-Rooting Tool. You should find it on google and somewhere here on xda.
i cant find in one click root my device :crying: or i didnt dee it can you plz go and search for me thank you very much
One more question.
Do you want to root, to do a backup of your apps?
Or do you want to get a Nandroid-backup?
Nandroid-Backup is something like an image of your pc.
EDIT:
Anyway.
The easiest and safest way is to flash the cf-root kernel with Odin.
Follow the instructions in the cf-root kernel and you should be good to go.
Its pretty easy.

crap...bricked my cappy. need help please...

Flashed from Legend 5 to AoCP, Didnt like it and tried to flash back to Legend. Well, my phone bricked("Firmware upgrade fail!" screen only), and now my computer wont recognize my cappy, and I have the correct drivers installed. I'm pretty newb, and cant figure this out. Any help would be appreciated.
could
Take a look at the "Captivate Connection Issues" thread - that should give you some things to try out.
By the way, the "Firmware Upgrade Fail" screen can be used as download mode.
Hey OP,
U gotta use Odin or Heimdall to return to GB (with Repartition) from ICS or Jelly Bean. U can't flash back to GB through CWM Recovery (if that's what u tried).
Along with the advice of jmtheiss, see the stickied thread in the Dev forum of Stock One Clicks. KK4 is the GB 2.3.5 Stock firmware.

Okay, thanks to both of you. Finally figured it out and am back to stock. Now, back to flashing!!!

[Q] Captivate 2.2 Froyo to X-Bean

Re: [ROM][4.1.1][PORT] X-Bean **2.0** (fast, stable & superfunctional)
Been browsing for an update on AT&T Captivate SGH-I897 Froyo 2.2 and now on T-Moble
Unlocked, rooted with SOC and CWM recovery..
Read thru development on X-Bean **2.0**
Understood to get: x-bean 1.1Base.zip / gapps-jb20121011-signed.zip / BUT not sure which kernal!!
Early the thread states Devil 1.0.4vc but most recently suggests alternative of semaphore 2.0.3c.
Am I correct in thinking both work, just the semaphore is newer?
Thanks

TiBu is my personal fav.
UPDATE... Again, thanks BWolf56!
AT&T Captivate on FROYO 2.2. OneClickRoot, CWM Recovery V2.5.1.2
Did ROM backup, TiBu backup, EFS, APN, Contacts etc
Installed/Flashed:
ROM X-Bean1.1 base.zip
gapps-jb-2012101-signed.zip
Semaphore_jb_2.0.3c.zip
landscape_fix.zip
Phone booted up fine initially, would always revert to landscape view, back button was now the home button.
Could not find any of my backups. "UI" kept crapping out; "Unfortunately UI is not responding" Think that's what it said!
Had to click OK and it was back until i touched anything and kept happening...
Did Advanced Restore -> CWM Recovery of: System, Data, Cache, ext/sd
Phone rebooted.... Stuck on AT&T logo screen, charging pinwheel shows but doesn't move.
Cannot get into recovery.. managed to get into "dowload mode"
tried i897UCJF6-final-OCD-REVO.zip loaded on computer, phone connected in download mode,
loaded PIT file only as the zip had no PAD file....... NO SUCCESS
If I proceeded in a NOOB fashion, it's because I am so I'll take my licks Lol
Any help would be appreciated!
Figured it best to just get back to stock 2.2, maybe even earlier since I wouldn't have the 3e recovery
problem not being able to install from OTHER sources. Then TRY again after brushing up!!!!!!!!

Did you flash a I9000 ROM? If so, you need the I9000 bootloaders.
Also to downgrade android version, you have to use Odin (i suggest kk4 without bootloaders if you already have the gb ones, which can be found in the stickies).
Make sure you follow the full instructions next time to avoid issues like that.

Ahhh, fello Canadian i see!
You may be correct thinking i have I9000 "JB"? bootloaders!, in the original
thread : Aceofspades replied to a member question stating: "Port means that this
rom is originally made for i9000 and made it to work for captivate."
Should I assume I've flashed an I9000 Rom? and now have JB bootloader?
Thinking back, I did not wipe before going back and using recovery! Not sure that was the problem
but it was on reboot after restoring CWM/system. data. cache etc that the phone rebooted and ended up
in a continual cycling of the ATT logo screen!
Big question now is how do I do to remedy my situation!!
NOTE...I have made a JIG and can get into "download Mode" now
From this point on I'll document my every move in order to be able to provide
the exact procedure I went through... might be more helpful !!
I know I know... NOOB! Lol
PS, is an alternative to use Kies Mini and update to Gingerbread?

First thing: don't use kies at all!
There are no JB bootloaders for the cappy, just eclair, froyo and GB. If the ROM is a port, you'll most likely have to flash the I9000 gb bootloaders but I'd suggest finding another ROM to start with (like CM). Playing with bootloaders is the only thing that will make your phone a paper weight if something goes wrong.
Also, bootloaders aren't included in roms for safety measures. That being said, you can run ICS and JB roms just fine with the GB bootloaders.
As for what comes next. Perhaps use Odin to flash stock kk4 without bootloaders, from there flash corn kernel (once again with Odin) and give CM a whirl following their full flashing instructions. (Which can be found both in their thread and website)
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
Understood... NO KIES
Sorry but a little confused still...
Do I Odin flash KK4 w/o bootloaders first -> flash corn kernal with Odin -> then flash a CM ROM using their procedure?
Where in the sequence is "flash I9000 bootloaders?
* No luck finding Odin w/o bootloaders yet, outdated download sites. Will search through xda again.

For now, forget about the I9000 bootloaders.
Here's KK4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
During your flashing, did you ever flash the GB bootloaders? If not, get the version with bootloaders and make the the flashing isnt't interrupted.
And yeah, from there you got it right, corn kernel; and follow their full flashing instructions.

* I haven't knowingly flashed GB bootloaders.

Hmmm, I did try "Odin" a couple of times to get the GingerBread update...After doing that my phone now
boots to the AT&T logo, goes black for a sec and a screen like a bad tv signal comes up! Also, the phone
is now charging and showing the big battery icon! I seem to recall reading somewhere that if that happens
it may be wrong bootloaders? Can't remember exactly what it said but am I correct thinking it was one of
your own replies to another member?
Anyway, done for the night Grrrr

KK4 is a one click Odin.
From there, you'll have to use Odin 1.85 or 1.87 to flash Corn kernel to be able to flash your way up to CM.

Hey there!
* 4-2ndtwin chimed in and said he would post when he uploaded them.
Been looking in the meantime.
* I have both Odin versions, now understand that I can use Odin to flash any file I choose, such as the Corn kernal, not just files it may come with.
* I downloaded a "Stocki897uckk4-zImage.tar, unzipping shows "zImage" file but I
haven't touched it.
Just hanging in for a working link for the Odin KK4 One-Click I guess...
Question!!!
For clarification..Odin KK4 One-Click is just bootloaders, kernal and maybe modem, right? It's not going to give me a working ROM...OR, is it ALSO an alternative way to flash a ROM when I can't add a ROM zip to my phone thru my PC to flash?
Lol... I'll get a handle on this, more of a visual type
As usual, appreciate the help!

I suggest you start with CM.
As for rooting, you can get it directly on the store now (was recently made legal). I believe it's by chainfire. But do you need it atm?
Also, all custom roms come pre-rooted.
