Pretty slick, man!This actually helped me rekindle my long dormant creative nature and I think I now have the foundations for an idea or two. So, thanks for getting my lazy country ass off the couch and back in my shop.....

This is because you're on the MDL bootloader. You need to search the forums for your phone in regard to the MDL bootloader and loki'd ROMs. When you see the "software not authorized. .." message, it just means you need to flash a loki'd kernel for your device. Search for Jeeboo's Recovery and...

Wow... Three and a half years later and a very outdated, obsolete device this method still works to bypass the google setup. I don't even plan on ever using this phone, just wanted o see if this worked. It did....lol

Can you not boot into download mode manually? From a powered down state, hold the volume down+home+power. When you feel it vibrate release power but continue to volume down+home. It will boot into a warning message, press volume up to continue to download mode(Odin mode...) Hope this helps.

Yeah, what I meant was not being able to downgrade for a carrier unlock on 4.1.1. Although, given that the warranty on this phone is long expired and its not associated with an account in default or blacklisted I believe At&t is required to provide an unlock.

Thanks for the lesson. I'm not at all happy about the locked bootloader, but at least I have a working phone.

Yes, it boots normally without the external SD installed. Yes, mjb bootloader is currently on the phone. The ROM I am using right now is the new Broken-5.0.2build 1.3 OFFICIAL.

I dont know if it included a bootloader but i think this was the one I flashed. SmartROM+v0.8.1+Repack. And I'm currently on the mjb bootloader. The backup I have is a twrp backup from before i flashed this rom. At the time i made the backup I was on the lk3 bootloader. Also, I'm fairly...

Hey guys, I'm curious about the possibilities of downgrading from 4.3. I get the impression that under some circumstances it may actually be possible. If so I'm hoping that I fall into the lucky SOB category. I received an S3 i747 that was still on stock 4.1.1 LK3. Unfortunately I got some files...

Alternatve.... I used the method from this thread to root and install CWM recovery and custom ROM. It worked beautifully for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1350266 EDIT: I rooted Froyo with kingo root. Once you're rooted there is an app in Google Play named "Captivate...

Great tutorial!! WOW!! Thanks for this very easy to follow tutorial. I didn't have much confidence that I'd be able to get it right on the first attempt, but your instruction was clear enough for even a dumb 'ol hillbilly like me. My old captivate is resurrected and running faster than a...

This is as good as I've been able to do.... I was about ready to throw my phone in front of a fast moving freight train after a couple of months of trying to locate proper h2o APN settings. I tried the customer service approach many times, as well. I searched the endless expanse of the web...
