[Q] Froyo Official for Captivate, Can we use it on our SGS? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
A question for you smarter people, Can we somehow use the Captivate rom in our machines? I'm thinking we need to mod somethings here and there but is it a good idea?
Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=797374
Edit: Yes I think this should be in Q&A but I would like the question in Devs as it will give the modders/hackers/devs a heads up on the release of the rom
Edit Edit: Don't install this! Breaks ****

Yes, I would like to know if we can use this on our SGS.

Should be that we need to flash a 2.2 i9000 kernel for proper hardware support.

Have you flashed it yet? Don't it disable your front camera as captivate don't have it? And isn't Captivate a 850mhz/2100mhz 3g phone while we use 900mhz/2100mhz ?

You might want to try a JPK modem with it too as I have feeling that it would work. Maybe if we extract the PDA file from the archive we can use odin to do it.

I don't know, you're the guy called "ronalGPS"
Kidding, kidding. Install GPS Test (if you're wifi is working). See how many satellites you can lock-in indoors and outdoors and how long it takes. But if you haven't done it before with the stock roms, not really sure if you would be able to assess comparatively.
What exactly is wrong with your phone, btw? What happens if you try download mode (VolumeDown + Power + home)?

[Q] Is my phone toast? no download mode "phone-!-Computer"

So my newest captivate did not have the 3 button method to go into download mode.
I flashed to cog 5.5 v2.2 BETA5.5 a month ago and decided no to touch it until a fix came out.
I read on designgears page that flashing back to jf6 will re-enable the 3 button method, so i decided to go for it.
I got into download mode using adb, and then tried flashing with odin3 one click downloader (the one DG provides on his page)
while flashing, it gets stuck on the 3rd step that says "file analysis". I tried a few more times but always the same result, so i pulled the battery and tried to boot the phone back up.
Now i get the "phone-!-Computer" on my screen and i cant get into download mode at all. What are my options? I have heard of this homemade jig that you can make, but I'm not all that confident in my soldering abilities.
try this
1-run odin
2-take out the battery and everything else (SIM & micro sd card)
3-reinsert battery
4-HOLD DOWN both up and down volume buttons
5-plug the usb cable (make sure the other end is already plugged into ur computer)
u might get into download mode now !
if so, reflash to whatever rom u want

This only works for phones that can access download mode using button combos. My phone can't.
Any other suggestions?

got this about a month or so ago. My first one had it, cracked the screen and exchanged it and now this one doesn't.
DG recommends flashing to jf6 to enable it, but in the process i bricked my phone. Ironic?
i ended up making a jig and got it to go into download mode that way.
Its pretty easy and i recommend it to anyone who cant get into DL mode.
Also i think there was something wrong with the first version of I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0 that i downloaded, because once i downloaded it again, flashing worked fine.

Not true. My phone doesn't have the three button access, but I can access it by holding the buttons and plugging in the USB cable.
Try it. You may be pleasantly surprised.
EDIT: or don't try it since you've already fixed it. lol

Please read above post.
Some phones CANNOT access download mode by using ANY button combo. The method you described is how my old phone would go into download mode, this one does not go into download mode.
"This combo works for me" might be the second most annoying post behind "GPS works for ME!!!"
Both are actual issues, just because yours works doesn't mean everyone else's will too.
Jf6 breaks download mode. You got it backwards.
Best advice I can give you is to keep trying...sometimes it does work

How do you make a jig? I've always wondered.\

HELP with ODIN

Having trouble with a ROM. It is putting me into boot loop. I have ODIN flasher installed and I've seen 2 ways to make ODIN QF see my phone.
1)turn phone on go into shut down screen and select download. Can't do this, can't get beyond boot loop.
2)volume down>ok>power, This is a problem, there is no OK button on a Captivate!
So what are my choices? I need to flash back to a stock version.
Thanks, Tom
Just turn your phone off completely. Have Odin up on your computer and the USB cable plugged in just to the computer. Hold the volume buttons on the left side of the phone. . WHILE holding the volume buttons plug in the usb cable into the phone. It will get into Download mode and all you have to do is click start in Odin from there. Hope this Helps
I have a T mobile vibrant and don't know if this will work for you but it did for me so give it a shot.
Start up Odin on your computer. Plug in a usb cord into a port on the pc. Don't plug it into the phone yet.
Turn the phone off
At the same time press the volume up and down buttons together.
While holding them both plug in the micro usb plug into the phone. Wait a few seconds and it should start up download mode.
Goodluck.

Guys come on, I just need help. I read it all, every thing matters to me!
AT&T. I think 1007 (there is nothing specific that says build #)
I have both ODIN Flasher & ODIN3 one-click
A note on ODIN, I have used it on this phone, It's how I originally flashed the phone (ODIN3 OC), however when I try the download method my computer is indicating a connection but neither OC nor Flasher see the phone.
I've also watched and read about ODIN3 OC and in all cases you need the phone on to work! Did I miss something?
So you are going into down load mode with odin open already and it is not recognizing your device?
With your build use one click for ease if use

Well oneclickunbrick will run in Windows also, it would take your phone to download mode so you can go on with Odin
Otherwise if that doesn't work I think you'll need to go to repair service

S I9000 won't power up

Hi all,
I have a serious situation with my S I9000, I really need some help.
So I had jelly bean Cyanogenmod 10, It worked fine until one day I updated it, and then I tried to Update some apps using Google Play App but the update didn't finish and cause me lots of unworkable apps.
I rebooted my phone to recovery mode, I made a backup, and then tried to restore an old backup (before I updated Cyanogenmod) but then the phone didn't want to start, It powers up but stays at "Samsung galaxy S....." welcome screen forever.
I was not able to start in recovery mode, how ever the downloading mode worked, then I tried to flash android 2.3.6 with odin but it failed.
And now my phone won't power up and doesn't show anything, even the charging screen.
I know I really messed things up but I really need your assistant guys.
Thank you (and sorry for my weak English)
What did you flash through Odin?

It's probably a hard-brick (I had the same problem last week). There are two ways that can solve it.
First is with a USB Jig. You can buy one (are super cheap) or trying to construct one by yourself. Here are some posts of handmade USB Jigs:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=819551

The second way is by taking your phone to the shop.

Thank you, but I think that USB Jig doesn't work, cause the phone doesn't show anything at all : no downloading/recover mode and no battery charging screen.
I heard about JTAG.. do you have a tutorial for that ?
Thanks again.
JTAG i think is only used by professionals, so i don't think there is any guide about it
is it really i9000? or i9003?
as far as i know, flashing i9000 ROM into i9003 will hardbrick ur fone

You can not restore any pre-CM backup as it has different format. I had the same situation last week and learned now how to revive my i9000
It is just a soft brick probably, if you have download mode (check 3-buttons) let me know if it works, I will help you later then.

The phone was completely dead. downloading mode or recovery mode didn't work even the battery charge status wouldn't appear.
