There have been those that run into problems after installing the XXJP3I9000 update on the Samsung Captivate and attempt to reboot into recovery mode. The issue that they have is that since the Captivate has no physical home button to select an option like you can with the Galaxy S, you can't select an option, and therefore you can't reboot your device regularly. While I am in this same problem and have not figured out a solution, I have started this thread to post what knowledge I have about this issue so that others may help get this issue figured out. If anyone has information on how to fix this problem, please comment below. Let's fix this!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First of all, the key combinations that standardly would work with the original captivate firmware will not work anymore. Pressing all three buttons (Vol+, Vol - and Power) will only power cycle the phone, that is, until you let up on the buttons. Pressing Vol+ and Vol- and then plugging your phone into the computer will also do nothing. (By nothing I mean will take you back to the recovery menu)
Every key combination will only take you back to the recovery menu, so key combinations seem to be out.
If you boot into recovery mode, take out the battery and put it back in, all the while keeping the phone plugged in to the computer, the phone will enter the "POWER RESET OR UNKNOWN UPLOAD MODE", which will show your device in windows as being a Samsung USB Composite Device and a Samsung Mobile Modem (gadget serial, Windows 7) While this may be helpful, you cannot run ODIN or ADB in this mode, nor does this allow disk access. If you have Samsung Kies installed, it will detect a device, but will never complete loading it.
Other information with this method: On the phone screen, as well as showing "POWER RESET OR UNKNOWN UPLOAD DEVICE" the screen will also show the following in red:
RST_STAT =0X1
PMIC_IRQ1 =0X0
PMIC_IRQ2 =0x0
PMIC_IRQ3 =0x4
PMIC_STATUS1 =0x40
PMIC_STATUS2 =0x2c
If this helps anybody, it was a pleasure
Another method I found briefly was that after installing Kies, and rebooting the phone into recovery mode (again) my computer detected four new devices, two of them being Samsung Android devices and one being a disk drive. Potentially, without freezing or error, the drivers that are included with the Kies software will detect and allow for disk management while the phone is in recovery mode. Three of the four devices installed without error for me, but the fourth, the actual Android device, continued to say "installing device" until I unplugged the phone out of frustration. It has since not detected those four devices again, and I have yet to figure out how to do that again. The nice thing about that was that although the adb.exe reboot download command did not work, adb.exe did detect the phone. if this is true then rebooting normally or into download mode should be easy.
The last thing I noticed is that button furthest to the left on the main screen on the captivate will close the recovery menu when pressed, and leave the background behind, and then will reopen the recovery menu when pressed again. This is showing me that the four touch buttons are operable, but not configured. If it were possible to reconfigure the actions that pressing these buttons do, then it would be easy to be able to reboot the device normally.
I have compiled information to the best of my ability, and here is a question to ask, that I think will help solve the problem. Can the captivate with I9000 2.2 software run adb in recovery mode?
Comments, Questions, and Most of all, answers would be appreciated for me, as well as for other users with the same problem as I. Hopefully, this thread can be the solving point for this problem.
Many Thanks,
TouchofDestiny
The n00b who isn't a n00b at all
An Update: The reason that the combinations don't work for me or either people is because they (and I) fail to install the captivate kernel, and that is making the volume power button controls useless.
same here i put froyo from the galaxy s i9000 and i cant change the rom or get into recoverymode because buttons dont work man this sucks and 3G or Edge doesnt work.....
You're problem is a little different. If you can't get into recovery mode, than that means you aren't in recovery mode, which means you can use ADB to enter download mode and use Odin to flash your phone. I have given up looking for a solution, and have sent my phone back to AT&T for a replacement. Since I'm still in my thirty day trial period, it doesn't matter if I used different firmware or not. Hopefully others won't get into the situation I had. For me, this thread is complete.

hi,
I solved the same problem doing this:
start odin.
take out battery. plug in USB. press both volume buttons. insert battery while pressing those buttons.
Done. download mode should appear.
yep, same boat
I am in the same position here. I downloaded the froyo leak and installed it with odin, no problem there. Upon startup into froyo, all was good, except my phone was stuck in horizontal mode until I tilted it vertical, *then* it would go horizontal. So basically I am 90 degrees off kilter. I decided to look around for another rom to try, and in the process managed to get stuck in recovery mode. Couldn't tell ya what firmware I have, just what is on the endless recovery screen that I cannot get out of!
I have no external microSD card, only the SIM card, and no way to get it recognized on my XP or win 7 system.
Really, really stuck here, guys. I do have the androidsdk installed, if there is a way to get it to reboot. As it is, adb cannot see the device, so I am looking at a truly bricked phone.
And yes, this is a US phone, which is why the power button and home button are not mapped (I assume).
I am DESPERATE for some help here!
and while I am at it...
I WAS able to get into download mode with the shovel guy originally by using the 2 volume keys+power, usb (odin up), battery in, release power.
No more. No key combo works.
Totally bricked the Samsung, which is supposed to be impossible!

when you are on the i9000 rom the only button that will get you in download mode is the vol down
That's HUGE!
You, sir, are a gentleman, scholar, and all-round smart guy! How did I miss that? I coulda SWORN I was getting into download mode with both volume keys. I've never been so happy to see a little Dalek dude with a shovel in my LIFE. 2 minutes in the one-click installer and now I'm back in business!
Thanks for helping a terrified owner out, and preventing a trip to the AT&T store.
I cannot go to download mode
I have the same problem here. Stuck in the recovery mode after upgrade the froyo and had the orientation problem. How do you go into download mode or power reset or unknown upload mode? Any button combination doesnt seem to work for me.
How do I do?
Please HELP. I am struggling here
Thanks

the key to the i9000 rom/kernel button combo is VOL DOWN + using the USB trick. do not press vol up + down, just the down while you are plugging in the usb cable
i too am stuck in recovery mode. the only way i can get into download mode is by using both volume buttons. just holding the down button just sends me to revoery mode as well. how can i fix my phone in download mode?
nevermind, reinstalled 2.2 and it works now.
Eureka I got it...I think
I installed froyo 2.2 i9000 on my captivate and got stuck in recovery mode...power button doesnt select and when I hold down the up and down vol buttons I couldnt get the downloading icon anymore either. Then I remembered something from another post....
Home + Vol Down + Power = Downloading Icon
It worked for me....let me know if this helped....I'm officially unbricked.
Hey. I'm in the same boat. My Captivate has I9000 firmware running it and it won't run properly. I can't access the settings to enable USB debugging in order to boot in either Recovery or Download using adb and no button combination works for me. I can't use button combos to boot into either Recovery or Download mode.
Does anybody have any idea what is going on and how to fix this?

JPBentley-- Since the I9000 firmware is set to use physical buttons, and the Captivate doesn't contain any, once you get into recovery mode, you cannot get out. The standard Captivate key combinations to get into download mode do not work, as do the combinations to get into download mode via the I9000 firmware. Basically, you get to a dead end. Unless there is some way to flash the phone's ROM outside of download mode, which I doubt, your best bet is to return the phone for a replacement. After haggling around with AT&T for a while, they admitted that installing the I9000 ROM doesn't invalidate your warranty, so they should take it back. They did with mine, and now I'm running the official Froyo leak. Good luck with your new phone!
SOLUTION
For all those that are having this problem, Ive struggled with it & tried EVERY possible button combination & nothing worked.
The ONLY solutions I have found is to use a usb JIG. Take out the battery, sim card & sd card, plug in the Usb JIG & put the batter back in. Give it a couple of seconds & I'tll enter recovery mode without pushing any buttons. You dont even need to push the power button, it's that simple.
Here is an image of how to make one if you are electronically inclined, personally I am not so I found a local electronic parts store & they put on together for me.

If you want, you can also buy one online, I cant post a link becuase Im a new member but just search for "samsung usb jig" on ebay.com & youll find plenty.
shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=samsung+usb+jig&_sacat=See-All-Categories
yes, i think you need to build a jig or buy one online if you want to play with custom rom. you may not need it now, but you may need it just in case.

I have the same problem, i can get into recovery mode. I can also get to download mode but Odin doesnt see my phone and neither does adb. By pulling the battery with no buttons pushed it goes straight into recovery mode. Looks like I have a brick now. If anybody has any suggestions please let me know.

That's not even close to a brick. Are you using a usb port closest to the motherboard on your pc? Is your cable good? Make or buy a jig, that will put your phone into download mode.

A couple of days ago I rooted my phone, and now my phone is stuck on "Galaxy S GT-I9000" boot screen, stays on that screen for about a minute, and restarts, and gets to the same "Galaxy S GT-I9000" screen. It loops forever, until I take out the battery.
I cant get the phone in recovery mode, I cant enter download mode, and the phone isn`t recognised by the pc, it only charges when connected to a pc with usb.
I`ve tried two different computers, no good.
Odin don`t find the phone, so flash is out of the question I guess. Any help here, is it possible to fix?

Download mode recovery jig .
Need to access download recovery or take phone to a service centre as first step .
jje
Is the only way to make a jig or to send it to service?
Unless you can put a file on the phone by some other means and then enter recover mode .
Recover mode install file transferred from PC and install .
Odin access download mode and install firmware from PC .
Or Harry Potter Mode .
jje
Can I use the sd card and use recovery mode from that? I mean, can I transfer som files to the sd card, insert that in the phone and enter recovery mode or download mode?
Just asking
You say you can not get to download mode or recovery mode .
If the phone was bootable then you can put files on external sd card copy them in phone to internal sd card .
Reasonably certain that recovery has no option to use external card as source .

Ok, then the only option is to send the phone to Samsung for repairs, incredibly boring.
I can not understand why I can`t get into recovery mode or the download mode, 3-button combination did work the other day, but now it no longer works.

Hello people,
I recently installed GalaxySense Rom (Search "oozeroo" on Google) for my Samsung Captivate AT&T, and it was working fine, until I changed a few settings, then it said it was going to Hot Boot, so the hot boot worked fine. Then, I turned off my phone and turned it back on, and it does not boot. I tried some stuff (check the Situations). My phone is stuck at "Galaxy S Cyanogen(Mod)" (Picture Included!!!)
Situation:
-No Download Mode
-No recovery mode
-Flashed this rom with rom manager (wiped dalvik cache only)
-TRIED installing Clockworkmod recovery, but wont work (not booting into recovery)
-Only an internal SD inside phone, 14 Gigs.
(Ask me for more info if needed please)
Thank you so much, and please help.

What key combo are you trying for recovery? You have a JIG laying around? If not, I'd go get one regardless of how invincible you think your phone may be. Maybe you could try Adam's one-click unbrick. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1153310 I don't know what conditions need to be met for it (your phone) to be recognized, but I'd give it a shot anyway.
I am using:
take out battery, hold both volume buttons, plug in USB, then put in battery, all with both volume buttons held the whole time.
No, I do not have a jig, I want to get one though
-I do not care to erase everything I have, I tried using Odin3 one click downloader, it worked for me once, when my phone actually went download mode

remove sim and microsd. You have to have your batt back in before you hold volume+- and insert USB
what recovery key combo you using?
still nothing buddy, tried your technique
thanks dude
i did try returning it, but they didnt accept it (costco), NOT because I had another romm installed... but because it wasnt booting!
-although, I do not have the battery sign show up, it just has the circle, then it goes to galaxy s screen

Well..... has galaxysense been actually ported to the captivate yet? I doubt this'll work but.... try vol down + home + power. You could vary vol down with vol up for recovery mode as well. Like I said.... doubt they'll work.
It has ported to captivate, there is a captivate section on website
Home button? you mean the touchscreen/virtual home button? When do you press it:when it lights up?
-btw, i tried the brick fix thing, but it didnt recognize my phone, because it was only booting

i did notice that, when the phone is booting up, and I connect, the phone is half recognized with computer, and yes I did install drivers.

I wonder if it'd be recognized by ADB if you install Nexus S drivers. try using that as the drivers for the marked captivate in dev manager. http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html#
If it changes name to Android Composite ADB interface, then you can ADB into recovery and reflash. I don't see how but if you don't have a jig.... might as well try.
(just raised your thanks meter!)
can I cut off an old charger that fits the captivate, and use that?

For a JIG? Possibly. You have to jump pins 4 and 5 with 300k worth of resistors. if you look in my sig, there's also a guide to just making one without a USB. Regardless of how you apply the resistance to your phone, you still need 301k. There is a window. I've seen 294k jigs work, so just as long as resistance is in a certain range across those two pins, it will work.
ok, thanks

Hi,
A friend gave me their old i8190 which has a broken screen. They haden't used the phone in a while.
It makes a noise when I turn it on, and the softkeys light up, but the screen is broken.
However, when I plug it into the PC- it doesn't come up as a device.
I do not want to buy a replacement screen (cost around $70 US) to find out it's broken elsewhere.
How can I determine this- is there anyway to mirror what should be on the screen? The previous owner doesn't know
You can try to start it in download mode, flash the 3 button combo for recovery (and maybe a custom recovery), reboot in recovery and connect with adb. You will be able to browse the device internal memory and you'll know if cpu and ram works ok.
If you have a rom with usb debugging enabled by default you can run apps using adb (and take screenshots): http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4567904/how-to-start-an-application-using-android-adb-tools

Well I'm a bit lost- I'm using the 3 button combo (Home+Volume up+ Power key). Is that combo correct?
Without being able to see my screen, how to I connect with adb?
It makes noises like my PC detects the device, but nothing comes up.
I do have special USB drivers for my I9310 installed- could they be conflicting or anything?
i8190 doesn't have the VolUp+Home+Power combination active by default. You have to start in download mode (VolDn+Home+Power, followed by VolUp) and use Odin to flash a patch to activate the combination for recovery (you'll find the patch here on the forum). If Odin doesn't detect your phone you probably have some other problems except the display.
After you flash the patch you can use VolUp+Home+Power to boot into recovery. When you are in recovery adb is active (even in stock recovery). Just type "adb devices" and you will see your phone.
I don't know about the drivers.

You just need Samsung drivers for odin to detect your device, not sure if your special drivers is the problem, try downloading this one
Should be around 5 seconds, holding it any longer wont do anything so just continue holding if you're not sure, then just hit vol up only
Thanks for that.
It might be completely broken
I've tried two computers- installing the Samsung drivers, and using Odin, but the phone isn't showing up at all.
It's strange, because it sounds like it does work. I switched it on- and the volume buttons seem to make noises, and I even somehow took a photo.
What could be wrong? Thanks
I really don't want to throw this phone away.
Like I said- it seems to work (takes photo's) but nothing comes up when I plug it into any PC... I don't want to spend $100 on a new screen either, to find out it's broken.
Please help me out.

Hi, I need some help or guides on a problem I just got.
I have a rooted S3 LTE (I9305), which seems to be soft bricked, if I understand what I have read so far. I need to either get it to work again, or at least a way to access files, so I can extract some data from it.
The situation is as follows:
I came home the night between sunday and monday, from a holiday, on which I had used the phone to take a lot of photos. At the point where I entered my car, the phone was working. I used the GPS to take, where I parked my car. Switched off the screen, and drove home.
When I got home, I could see the screen was hanging at the boot logo. So it must have crashed and rebooted it self at one point - don't know when.
Tried to restart 4-5 times, but only got to the boot screen. Pulled the bat. but still the same.
Suddently at one point, I couldn't even get to the logo screen, instead it just shows white and black stripes across the screen.
If I'm lucky I can get into download mode, but only around every 10 time or so.
I managed to keep it in download mode at one point, and through Odin wanted to re-flash my device, but it failed saying it need a pit file.
So this is where I stand now. Is there a way to access the phone from my computer, so I could download the photos taken, or can I flash it without loosing any of the photos and if so how?
if you have a custom recovery installed you could maybe try to plug it in to a PC and mount the USB storage via the menu

Which menu are you thinking about? The PC doesn't recognize the phone, as a device. Can't find it anywhere. And in the download mode, I can't do anything on the phone, or at least it doesn't reacts.

Do you have a custom recovery installed like Clockwork mod or TWRP recovery manager?? If you have you'll be able to access it by switching your phone off then holding power up + home + power until you see the boot animation

Offcause I forgot the phone at Work, so can't test to be sure. But if I recall correctly I have TWRP installed.
But don't think I can get into it. The only compination of buttons that I had success with, was volume down + home + power into the download mode, as I said. But that isn't even all the times I can get into that.
Update:
Yes, as I expected I couldn't start it with volumen up + home + power, all I get is the black and white stripes.
