[Q] "Soft-bricked" Captivate

I thought I totally bricked my Captivate, but it turns out it will enter download mode and after a couple of days I even got the AT&T screen to load up (though nothing happens after that). I thought I could use Odin3 to flash stock back onto it, but every time I connect it via USB Windows recognizes it as a malfunctioned device. None of the Odin programs I use will recognize it now. Is there any way I can get my phone back? Any help is appreciated.
I think you need to install a proper driver.
Delete it please.
The drivers were installed. The computer used to recognize the phone just fine before it bricked. I've been trying everything to get stock back on it...
Try a different computer
My laptop had this exact problem for all of its usb ports
I changed to my desktop and everything works fine now
Swyped from gingerbread powered captivate

No...when connecting the SGS into Dowlad Mode and then USB, the Windows Error advice appears...
It doesn`t happen when I connect the phone during the bootloop
Have you tried multiple PC's or just the one? A different USB cord? Have you removed kies and deleted the "sys info" folder, rebooted, then installed just the Samsung driver?

I`ve tried different PC, and nothing...now I`ll try different cord...but is there anything related with the storage/ mount? does win7 recognize EXT4 devices?

Windows 7 recognizes EXT4 so that's not the issue, otherwise everyone who flashes roms and plays with their phone would have the same issue.
Try the cord, apart from that if you can't get any PC to recognize it in download mode it may be hardware related.
Not yet

How do you access download and recovery modes, through 3 button combos or electric jig?

it didn`t work yesterday when I tried in a XP windows...I guess that the problem isn`t with Drivers, cause any PC is recognizing it...
The problem presented at CWM is the same that the other thread at this page.

I'm having trouble understanding your posts. From what I can gather we have eliminated a driver, PC or cord issue. Why do you think it is CWM issue when the phone is not even recognized in download mode?

I have tried reinstall Samsung Driver, no sucess...
I have used a different USB cord, no sucess...
I have tried using another PC and nothing!
The 3 Buttons options still working even for CWM (then I can`t do anything cause the unknow mount/ storage problem)....and in Download Mode the WIn7 Doesn`t Recognize it.
I hope you understand me...sorry about my English!
CWM Unable to Delete files
I continue in trouble...my SGS isn`t working, the CWM mode can`t wipe, delete or install anything...always the "E: unknow mount"
The Download Mode still not working!
What were you doing when this issue started?
I was restoring
I was trying to restore the update.zip file...I was using the MyICS and later the ICS RC4.2 ...but I`ve decided to return to the stock, wipe data/ factory reset and then: no more boot (only i9000 appears and stay)
HI, I`m using a program USBDeview and it can "see" my device although it doesn`t recognize as a SGS or i9000 or anything related.
I`ve been reading something related to ADB and PDAnet, but everytime that someone says to put my device in Debugging mode ON and continue the steps, I have to stop cause I can`t turn ON my SGS...I suppose that before the last time I used it I let the debugging MODE OFF...so my PC and any other PC will recognize it.
Any other idea/ solution?
Thanks a lot...but I still don`t have a phone,
I`ve been trying to solve my problem but no succes until now!

I still have the CWM 3.0 issue (not abble to install/ restore/ apply zip...anything caude it doesn`t acces to storage/ mount)
I still have to DOwnload Mode, but unabble to the FLASH ANYTHING by Odin.
Thanks a lot...but I still don`t have a phone,
What happens when you open Odin and then plug it in in download mode?
Have you tried to mount or unmount storage in CWM?
If you can't wipe anything through CWM and can't get any PC to recognize it in download mode unfortunately it sounds like you have either bricked your phone or you have hardware issues.
You've probably tried it, but, pull your battery out for a minute and then try everything again, apart from that there's nothing else I can help you with. Maybe start searching for tricks on how to unbrick an sgs.
Good luck mate and keep me posted on your progress, I'll help where I can.

Yes, I've tried to mount or unmount, but the process doesn't end...cause the E: unkonow problems
The battery trick I've tried too.

[Q] Samsung S2 not recognized - USB Device Not Recognized Error

I believe the source of the problem to be a faulty install of ICS plus a later rooting, as the phone would intermittently go from Android Phone to Unable to Recognize USB Device, to just not being able to recognize the phone. I've uninstalled KIES along with the drivers and installed them back again to no avail. Can anyone help? Is it possible to flash the phone with a working Android version without using the computer - through the SD card?
I'm having a similar problem seems to be very intermittent and random.
Try plugging it into a friends laptop, mine got recognised that way.
Then either download a rom and chuck it on the card that way or we shall see.
I got it fully working, absolutely perfectly an hour or so ago. Came back to it now and tried to plug it in and no response...

try change port usb 2.0 not on usb 3.0, if you are running Windows 8, maybe you should reboot on troubleshoot mode for install drivers unsigned.

lost fastboot

So something I noticed, I've updated my phone loads of times via firmware Finder and the update tool on my PC with no issues. So I haven't needed to update my phone for a couple of months so I had no reason to connect my phone to my pc. Yesterday I went to do the usual update procedure and plug my phone in and realised my computer doesn't recognise my phone whatsoever. My phone is unlocked and currently rooted as a side note. So I checked to see if I had fastboot and when trying to boot into it, it just reboots the phone. Does anyone have any idea what to do?

https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...432e5r1p9b195-9-0-0-195-t3888894/post79832003 this way should work unless something has changed on your PC? E.g. drivers uninstalled?
Solved the issue. My cable must have been damaged at some point and would only let me charge the phone. Used a different cable and everything worked as usual. Thanks for the suggestion though
