I have a i897 that I can get into download mode. I have no idea what has been done to it.
What can I flash to bring this back to life?
I'm new to the captivate..not new to modding. Seems like alot of different firmwares around, just not sure which one.
THANKS.
Go to the Dev forum. There is a Stock Roms Master Collection stickied thread. Go to post #3. There u can get the GB 2.3.5 KK4 Firmware.

So i just got a new cappy on exchange from bby and have some questions prior to roming.
I had a 1007 build and got a 1010. What root methods are good for preloaded 2.2?
Can i odin one click to 2.1 like with my first one and root from there?

If you are going to flash a custom rom there is no need to root. Flash speedmod kernel with odin to get cwm and flash rom in recovery.
If you want a gingerbread rom the added step of flashing gingerbread bootloaders is required. Still no need to root.
But if you were going to root, super one click would be the way.
Thank you

Also that Odin one click (JF6) doesn't work well with builds 1010 and later.

I think you can use the full Odin and flash a stock firmware. If you are GB bootloaders you will have to flash back to froyo/eclair bootloaders... which, flashing btldrs is not necessarily safe, just keep the cat and dog out of the room so they don't rip the cord out mid flash

Hello most of the root guides for this phone are vague and not well done. Anyone have a detailed easy way to root the captivate?

You could always flash a rom that prerouted. Cyanogenmod roms all come pre flashed and allow you to keep up to date with modern phones. (allows you to go up to Ice cream sandwich 4.0.4! Also Its not unbrickable by any means. I accidentally came very close to bricking my captivate when i first started modding it. Luckily I got a jig and jigged the crap out of it! HAHA
Does anybody have a nandroid backup of stock recovery they could post? Thank you in advance

I really need it too anyone? Thanks can we maybe use att stock recovery
You can't nandroid the stock recovery as far as I know. You'd have to use Odin. I posted it in the thread about the tmo uvlg5 modem in the att note general forum. Too lazy to link it as I'm on my phone, but the thread is only like 10pgs I think

I have a samsung captivate and after installing a rom the phone is not turned on.
does not start, does not go into recovery mode and even in download mode, how can I reset it without sending it in for service?
this is now ....
Treat that screen the same as you would the Download mode screen.
Use Odin or Heimdall to flash back to Stock KK4.

you rock
Yesterday i had to rooting my tab and then i founded one trick that i think its a lot easier. Im using CF-Root, then i used to flash with odin. No problem appear after that, but the problem coming after i had to reboot my tab; some sound glitch occur on samsung bootanim, and the last big problem for me is, now i cant turn on my tab again it stuck at bootanim. I know how to fix that problem; just flashing back to stock rom. But, i dont want to do that because i have a ton of games and app who will be disappear if im going to flashing back to stock.
So, anyway that can fix my problem without back to stock? Can someone give me a link about stock or custom gb(2.3.3) kernel? Maybe it can solve my problem. Please someone. Help me

Do you have the exact rom version that you were running? Maybe someone has the Rom, and extracting the kernel is possible.

I repacked the JQ1 euro rom's kernel in a tar
http://goo.gl/Bpmcr
try flash that in Odin like when you did CF-root
Then boot to the stock recovery and do a wipe cache (not sure of stock recovery has that..?)
anyway, try and see.
Else you probably want a restock.
If eventually you want to restock, just follow my signature to Overcome links.

you may be out of option but to restock.
Using CF-root was always a hit and miss.
that is why I recommend Overcome method every time.

Now ive been restocked my tab with overcome method. Then, how to root my tab? just downloadin overcome kernel and flash with odin like when i did cf-root, didnt it?
No. Dont do that.
Just flash overcome kernel using Odin.
Then use the cwm recovery ti flash overcome rom 4.1
Then it is s GB rom with root.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Yap. Thats what i want to do. So.. just for sure bcause i dont want to brick my tab.
1. Flash overcome kernel via odin
2. Flash overcome rom via cwm
3. Finish
That is right?
