[Q] Captivate stuck on i9000 bootloader. - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello im in a bind here, i watched the noob video and made sure to do some extra searching but only found a couple of threads that were "similar" to my problem but none of the solutions applied...
I flashed the gamerzrom onto my captivate along with the i9000jvu. Problem is odin3 no longer recognizes my phone and and cant seem to flash back to stock... and the button combo doesnt really work either. I am no longer in gamerzrom i am in aokp jb build 5 trying to see if i can get around this. Yes my drivers are up to date ( i checked 4 times...)

Button combos are different for I9000: vol up + power for recovery, vol down + power or usb for download.

Did you tried to connect phone with computer and then use ADB to make phone boot on recovery?
Sent from my HTC Ruby

try this by CMD/Terminal
Install ADB
You must have USB Drivers installed for your device.
Enable USB Debugging on your device and plug it into your computer via USB cable.
Open CMD (windows) or Terminal (linux/mac). To open CMD, hold windows key, then press R, then type cmd.exe and press enter.
Type adb reboot download
hope this help you

don't use safe strap. unlock the bootloader, flash a real rom. change the boot logo to the stock one and noone will ever know you that you unlocked it.
Which would you suggest? I do have unlocked boot loader currently.
Sent from my MB886 using xda app-developers app
Well you don't use safe strap with am unlocked bootloader. Get cwm.

Just download the cwm file and place it in fast boot folder or platform tools if you have SDK.. Open command window there by presssing shift key and right clicking simultaneously... Type the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery_name.img". Replace the name of your recovery To recovery_name... Then "fastboot reboot"

Just did it and saw you posted. When I restored my phone last night I did it manually in cmd with fast boot so it was easy enough.

boot into download mode using vol dwn+home+power.(even though the screen is off keep pressing the buttons for 15 secs).. then after a few seconds press vol up.. connect the phone to pc and open odin. check if it recognizes the phone., if the COM port show yellow or blue... try flashing a GB rom which has boot loader....
Good luck. I hope you have success.
