It is captivate with cynogen 7 mod but if you don't know what it is I'm guessing you don't have it (not to be rude) . So just get the regular captivate cwm update.zip .. Hope this answered what you need to know.

Ya, once you flash another rom it will depending on the rom replace the one from rom manger. Do if you want to keep that cwm recovery just copy the "update.zip" file from the root of the sd card. If your not rooted let me know and I will post it for you.

Yah, I'm rooted and everything, but here's my latest issue. If i hit reinstall packages in the samsung recovery thing, i get E: (insert whatever error it is here). And I can't go back to stock with Odin3 because it never reads my phone in download mode on my laptop. Thanks again!
I'm trying to figure out how to upload the zip from my phone, but if you look for "3e recovery" with search you can get fix fit that.

Yah, I've tried that, but it will read my phone when on and will have the yellow 0[COM:4] (5 or something like that) and as soon as I turn off my phone to go into download mode it goes away, saying "removed", and the yellow box disappears and doesn't come back until I reboot into regular phone.
While it is plugged in turn it off and then try adb download
Ithink it is; "adb shell" then "su" then "reboot download"..... Hopefully that should help

Well close odin, then (just to make shore correct on getting to download mode) remove your simcard and battery and external sd card. Next open odin (with phone un plugged) next put in battery and hold down volume keys, and plug in to computer and see if that works, because odin has to be open before you go to download mode

My problem is, I cannot find this update package in my internal sd storage to save my life nor do I even know what the update package would be called. Can anyone please help?

I'm not certain but it might be called update.zip, because if I remember that's the only name that will flash in the stock recovery. As for finding it, just try searching for update.zip. it should be on the root of the sdcard(no folder) because that's the only way I thought it could install. Any ways I'm probably wrong but at least you can try.

I'm not sure really what CSC code is but I think your talking about stock Odin flash able package. That should get you back to stock and flash the stock recovery and wipe everything. However i think it will bootloop after it flashes so you will have to boot into recovery and wipe data. If so check out the wiki. There is all the info you need. I have another idea though. I haven't done this myself but you should be able to push a clockworkmod recovery.img to the phone from a terminal if you have adb also in the wiki. I can't view your pic because I don't have a Facebook but maybe someone else can. Good luck
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
That is the stock update pushed by Samsung from what it sounds like. Also sounds like a data packet might have dropped during the downloading of it causing a bad install. For simplicity get cwm Installed and boot thru that and flash from cwm. Wiki has all the info needs.
Wiki please read completely on rooting and install of cwm. Suggest 6.0.1.2 version. Personal preferences on that.

Problem solved. I just randimly pushed the 3 buttons on the phone before the rebooting part came up in the script and finally got the menu, took may tries to get to that point but as soon as I got to that point, I was quick to install clockworkmod successfully. Now problem is gone. Hope this thread maybe helps someone else

I have a similar problem. Which 3 buttons are we talking about? Power+Home+VolUp?
Easiest way, take out battery, push volume up and power, insert battery while holding, when Samsung appears release only power, when the android guy with package appears press menu
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda app-developers app
Make sure you push the "Menu" capacitive button (left in the row of four buttons below the screen) when you see the green Android guy and the box. That will get you into the stock recovery menu.
I had to reboot into recovery a couple of times because I missed that part. What a pain!
Hey guys, for some reason my recovery mode won't work on my Samsung Galaxy S Advance. Whenever I try (volume up, home, power button) it just boots normally (power button). It doesn't even boot into download mode (volume down, home, power button)
I changed my build.prop file to a Galaxy S 2 GT-19100 and I'm planning to use Clockwork Mod to replace my missing recovery mode.
In selecting which device I have, do I click Samsung Galaxy S Advance or Galaxy S2 ?
I just wanna be careful with what I'm doing. Thanks.

First wrong forum, this is forum for developers to present their work. You should post in General I9070 forum!
About that with recovery, try to reinstall kernel. You are rooted, as you change build.prop. Use this.
Code:
1. Extract the attached file twice. You will end up with a kernel.bin.md5 file
2. Put the kernel.bin.md5 file to /sdcard
3. Start adb shell
4. Do the following commands:
Code:
$ su
# dd if=/sdcard/kernel.bin.md5 of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15
# reboot
5. Wait for the device to reboot.
Or, if you do not have adb shell on your PC, you can do steps from 4 to 5 on mobile. With Terminal emulator from Play store.
And I have to dissapoint you, and your plan. There is no working CWM for our phone yet. But there is TWRP. (with method I menton in this post).
Oh, I'm sorry, shut_down, still pretty fresh here. I'll know where to post next time thanks to you.
How I wish we had more developers for our phone. I hate how our phones are forgotten a little bit. Anyway thank you I'll try this and let you know !

And be carefulf that you type it exacly in Terminal! Do not miss any letter.
I don't have a pc now. It crashed a couple days ago. So I'll just type in steps 4-5 in the Terminal emulator on my phone ?
Sorry. I'm the definition of a mega noob. Seriously need help before I mess my phone up

Yes. But you need to unpack kernel till you get: kernel.bin.md5.
Where can I find the kernel ?

Long post but can't really shorten it.
32GB wifi Nexus, rooted and was running Liquid Smooth ROM and Motley kernel, went to update the ROM to rc9 version ,anytime I updated previously I never done full wipe unless using different ROM, anyway flashed the ROM and the gaaps with it and rebooted, immediately and prompted to me to use either apex or Holo HD I choose Holo HD got error saying system ui not responding, tried apex and got the same.
I was on the main screen but couldn't access it, yet I could pull down and enter into settings, everything else looked to be ok, so rebooted back to recovery and tried fixing permission, rebooted and got the same so I though I'll be just restore my nandroid backup, to my astonishment all the data had been wiped, I didn't do a wipe at all so I'm baffled how this happened.
Anyway I done a factory reset and rebooted and went through the setup, got the same system ui not responding, went to settings which could still access, apps and un installed both Apex and Holo HD noticed that Liquid Smooth rc9 had installed but instead of showing the cm kernel it still showed motley kernel.
Back to recovery, factory reset twice, wiped cache and dalvik, rebooted, went through set up process, same system ui error again, went to settings, erased all data, tablet rebooted, set up process same again, system ui, so I'm getting worried so back to recovery and this time I selected format system, data and sd, card and now I think I've completely fuc#ed it up as it just hangs at the Google screen and has stayed like that for over 30 minutes.
Previously asides from the occasional force close issue in the 2 months I've had the Nexus not really had a problem with it and whilst I'm no developer or techy geek I'm certainly no noob when it comes to this type of thing but I'm very concerned now and hoping someone can be of assistance as I sold laptop and primary just use my Nexus (and Galaxy S3)
Thanks

Strange.. But I didn't understand well, after wiping /system, did you flash the ROM back ?
I think you should flash 4.2.1 factory image using toolkit or whatever, then root etc..again
No all the data had been wiped this is what is baffling me, I didn't do a factory reset I just flashed the ROM and gaaps, as I said initially it was the system ui error I was getting but I think I've fucjed it up by formatting the system, data and sd card as all I can see now is the Google screen at boot, I can still get into clock work mod recovery but I've exhausted all avenues as it were, is there any hope I can get it back working again?

First Download and install the fastboot drivers...Download the stock Image here:-
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
then hold volume-(Down) Button and while holding the Button power on the device..it will take you into the bootloader. Now conne4ct the nexus to your PC...Now extract the file you downloaded (the Stock image)..keep extracting the files till you get the system.img file.Use fastboot to flash that(the command):
fastboot flash system system.img
Boot into fast boot, push a stock image. Ta da. Easy stuff. The basics.
