Odin one click does not fail. It is more likely user error.

im thinking odin 3 will work if i have the right kernel and stock rom

I have read that Odin fails for some trying to flash stock from CM7, maybe has to do with the drivers and the fact CM7 doesn't use Samsung code. Use Heimdall to flash back.
Also as someone has posted you need Gapps in order to use any of the Google apps. It's in the OP for the CM7 installation instructions. I think you can install Gapps through ROM Manager, I don’t use CM7 myself so I am not 100% sure about how you install Gapps.

At the bottom of the odin one click op there is 2 stock firmware packages. Try either of those...
They include rom and kernel.
And since you're on cm7 you might have to install google drivers.

Heimdall may fail the first few tries keep trying, most report it takes a few times but it works.

You won't if it's the one click. Which Odin are you using?

Any special procedures?

Okay so my friend has a Samsung captivate. He is on 2.2 and I would really like to help him root and install cwm and a stable cm9 build. I see a lot of one click methods but I'm not particularly sure which one to use... I have an s3 which to me seemed easier to root and install cwm. All this eclair, froyo, and gb things are hurting my head.And just driving me in circles. But if I had some direction it would be appreciated. I just want to know what I need to do to get ,root,cwm, and cm9 thanks ahead of time!

I don't claim to know everything but I do know this. Being that he is on 2.2 you will have to flash to gingerbread first and make sure whatever you flash has bootloaders included otherwise you will have a bricked phone at some point along your way to CM9.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1300843
Go to that link and it will give you several one click options to get you to a variety of stock GB roms. Also for your intitial root there are several one click applications available that will get you fixed up you should just have to google them.

Yeah I'm used to having to flash new firmware, flashing cwm again then new Rom.that was on my old sensation. But thanks I will tell him to update to gingerbread via kies.then I will flash a custom kernel via Odin then just update to cm9

Stickies also have some good instructions.

Okay so he just upgraded to 2.3.5 so am I going to need to install boot loader as well? or am I just going to use the one click tool
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

If he is on 2.3.5 GB already, root the phone and flash a corn kernel so he will have a working CWM

If he has kk4 gb 2.3.5, then he has the gb bootloaders. So all u need is to flash a kernel with cwm and then the Rom of ur choice copied to ur internal sd and u will be good to go. So see this... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19425513&postcount=1

So even though they are gingerbread boot loaders, I can still flash an ics Rom?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

^ Yep... And each Rom should have it's own install instructions and requirements in their OP as well.

Yes GB bootloaders are the requirement and are even backwards compatible. You should be able to install anything from Eclair to Jelly Bean now without problem. But as the previous response states make sure you follow the directions for whatever rom you are using so you are less likely to run into issues.

Yeah I just ran into problem after problem tonight. Finally got cm9 installed and his imei for changed. I am running into every speed bump possible with this phone

Im assume your devices havent rooted. And wanna go for custom ics rom.
1) root your devices ( dr.ketan thread).
2) flash speedmod or hydracore kernel thru rocovery or mobile odin.
3) reboot recovery and do full wipes.
4). Install rom. Done.
Good luck

[Q] question

I recently came back from my xperia play which broke and I have a question
1) Does the droid have an unlocked bootloader?

Yes, the Droids have.

so I can cm7 or an ICS rom w/o a problem?
Sent from my Droid using xda app-developers app

I have a Milestone, so i've never used a Droid, but i'm sure you will find a plenty of tutorial about how to install custom recovery and flash roms.
Only flash roms from the Droid forum.

Yes you can flash CM 7 without a problem check out this guide that will tell you how to root your Droid 1 if you haven't already and how to install the latest 7.2 Stable version of Cyanogenmod and google apps (Here is the latest gingerbread ones). For now I would stay away from any ICS ROM's for the Droid 1 while it's nice to see ICS running on our phone they aren't really meant as daily drivers, and don't have everything working correctly.

How do I get CWM?

You can try some kernel which works with froyo rom.. you want an untethered method so it needs to be a flashable zip or you can use kernel flasher app for galaxy s and use .tar kernel file to flash the custom kernel.. this will root your device.

This is a very old method.. What I'll suggest is going to darkyrom.com and get the 10.2 Resurrection Odin version.. Flash that and you'll have a rooted GB ROM.. Then you can flash CM 10.1 from recovery

once rooted you can use rom manager to flash CWM recovery.. it'll download and flash it.. no need to use odin .. and also once you are rooted you can use mobile odin too (though its paid I think.. rom manager free version comes which will do the work).

Mobile Odin pro is for $5. Free version doesn't preserve root.
I will hopefully try your suggestion.
