It can definitely be fixed, it's just a matter of how easily it can be done. Have you tried some of the unusual combinations people have come up with to get into download mode. For example removing the battery, holding power + volume down + home and then reinserting the battery whilst these buttons are held?
Also, if you can't get into download mode that doesn't mean you have to sell it as parts. Samsung will be able to repair it, if they can't tell what you did then perhaps they'll repair it for free under warranty.

Sometimes I just wonder why people try to install low-level software on their device that ISNT MEANT for their device. There is a reason, the captivate has a different model number and that is because it requires DIFFERENT software.
This comes close to me flashing the BIOS for an AMD motherboard on my X58 Intel motherboard.

reason for people installing other software is in my case because im STUPID !!! I stood almost 24 h reading forums in my country and stuff , and i googled ODIN the first link was this ODIN ONE CLIK i entered read about things there and it seamed to be for my phone, and from there we know the story. I did not think for one moment that the soft was for another phone. After i broke it i read all 42 pages and realized that.
I can't get the phone to do anything.... i can't charge it ... it's like the USB does not exist. If i start the phone unpluged, when i plug the usb in turns oFF , ass soon as i take out the USB it will start again to flash the AT&T logo...
I hope if i can't fix it, that SAMSUNG service will change it or can repair it and not charge a hunormus amount of money for that
you have give me hope telling that it can be fixed by samsung , and i still am opened for advices from u guys

thanks, im not going to be upset if people make fun, they can do it because i was so stupid not to see that the soft is for another phone and brake it with my own hand. Isn't on this forum someone that works for Samsung and can tell me for sure what to do , or if the service can do ?

if we´d have this guy here, the galaxy s would be worlds top android device out of the box, since this guy would perfectly know what the problems are with it and could easily manage to incorporate fixes found here or based on testing people made here...

i was not referring to a developer from samsung or an engineer, i was asking for a guy that works in a Samsung service, and could tell me if my problem can be resolved in the service.

Why don't you just call them and ask yourself?

Im sorry but you screwed up. Im sure samsung can fix it but charge you heaps of money. You could always "loose" your phone if you have insurance

you don't have these option very often in this country... i know only one person that has these type of insurance...

Well there is a way of getting your phone working by putting a file on your sd card but you'd have to look for that .

Actually, you should try it... I've been told that flashing Intel boards with AMD firmwares allows unlimited overclocking! or not.

I'm sorry for that. It's a little bit of frustration speaking there. But I guess you have a way bigger problem. Although that post about putting the right file on the SD seems interesting (but I haven't heard of anything like that before).
But if you can, returning the phone and hoping that samsung will fix it will be the easiest fix.

im sure samsung can fix it evan by changing the sd in the phone with the correct soft will solve it, but i want to see if there is another way of doing it

[Q] Headset audio balance issue[HELP!]

Since the last month or so I have had a problem with the headset on my O2x. It is NOT an issue with the headset, it works on other devices and also other headsets have the same issue on my phone.
The thing is that the right channel is very, very, very low. Left channel sounds great. I've been running Temasek CM7 with symbi0sis all the time and never ever installed any kind of mod that would mess with sound. I have reflashed rom and kernel several times. I have not gone back to stock because it's such a process, but I will probably do that today or tomorrow.
I have been googling for days now but now I feel I have to start this thread here because I don't see a way of fixing this issue.
Sooo, my question is: does anyone out there have an idea of what I can do?! Please post if you do. I'm desperate at this point.

Get a piece of cloth, wrap it around a small pin and clean out the headphone port with that. Try using a compressed air can before you stick a cloth into your headphone port.

[Q] Amazing. Same problem on 2 Captivate phones. Speaker issue

Hello guys. Im feeling very frustrated now, i bought 2 phones on ebay from different sellers and both of them have problems when i play music. The sound goes off and became very quiet for some reason. To get it back i need to hit the speaker's area and it becomes fine again but for some short time only. I think it is a common problem and many people did have this problem. I tried to flash different fimwares etc, no luck. Please anybody help.. Regards

I was quite tempted to use LMGTFY but won't work at work lol.. So yeah, here's the answer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351278
If that doesn't work, some users reported that pushing on the speaker (after taking the back off) fixed their problem.
Hope it helps! and remember, a little search goes a long way

Widespread problem bud. I have 2 captivates and both suffer from this. I tried fixing the one and made it way worse. Thinking about sending them both out for repair. Still a great phone!

Hi,
your answer is here!. Seems to be a hardware short circuit.
maybe putting your open device close to a warm source to dry it will give you 15.031969% to save it...
Else, I fear you need Samsung service..

I don't mean to be rude but why did you open a thread here on XDA about this?
This site is for mobile phone/tablet development.
You have bought a faulty device, it happens.
You need to take it back for a replacement, simple.
I hope you get it sorted! It's never nice buying something and it not working properly.

i believe it got something to do with calibration or something related to software
as phone was flashed earlier and it might be something to do with flashing
i was thinking of writing NV calibration data from another phone to see if that may help, but thought of getting more ideas first.
WBR

Oh right, fair enough then. I thought it was brand new and you'd just taken it out of the box.

as good as new, only a few days used, sending it back would be costly
so i thought to get some ideas if it could be calibration data or something, as i have already flashed it but it didn't yield any result..

Battery problem

My gsa always shows charging even if it s unplugged. The graph under battery setting is keep on increasing. Anyone help plz
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda app-developers app

Running a custom rom? Try reflashing or a full wipe/factory reset. I have been facing the same problem but it disappear from itself.
If the problem stays I think it's a hardware problem.

I have a similar problem, Some times, my phone just go in charging status when no cable is connected. Also, some times, the cable is connected and charging is shown on the screen but actually battery is not charging instead draining battery much more rapidly.... I connected my phone to PC when it had 13% battery.... and after an hour its left with just 2% showing charging status .... it not happens every time but happens a lot!
So far I have reflashed different ROM 2-3 time with full wipe/reset. I have also updated to XXLQB fimware using odin.... so far no improvement! :crying:

the situasions you guys having will finally end up in bricking the device.
i had exact the same problem, it started with random charging while not plugged, then not charging when plugged in. next thing was that my phone didnt get discovered by a pc in any mode. last thing happen was it never turned on after a restart.
ssc replaced a part where you plug the cable and earphones in. everything is back to normal since then.

I am having the issue for a couple of months.... and my device is some how alive! And the usb connection with PC also works fine. Some time my system with win xp fail to recognize the phone, but Kies diagnostic always fixes that issue... so I believe it is some bad with my PC....
I could not get the ssc replacing part stuff... could you explain it a bit. Any suggestions to make it live a bit longer?.... my original plan is to by a new phone by the end of 2014 ... I know its not gonna make that long :crying:

well, mine was 'fine' too, but all of a sudden it wasn't.
there's propably no easy way to avoid anything that has sth to do with hardware. using originall accesories is the only thing that comes to my mind.
tbh, i have the invoice somewhere, for the parts that've been replaced. thats the only lead what went wtong with my phone.

So it is a hardware problem. I was truly wishing it has some thing to do with firmware... I have one last hope by trying to downgrade to GB.
rajman, have you tried that or you never got chance for that?
I would love to hear an angel saying that it is a software/firmware issue and can be fix without fiddling the hardware. Is there any?

i didnt have the opportunity. i've tried everything to make it visible to pc. nothing helped.
i was using it tho, till it get bricked. so i was unable to try reflashing it.
hope you'll sort your things asap.

I got an impression that the problem can be reduced if wifi is disabled while charging or connecting to PC. Now i only enable wifi when I need and phone is behaving quite good.

I have the same problem descripted here (((
I tried everything, it really does seem like a hardware problem.... lets hope mi carrier technical service can do something about it
