I used this program originally to get passed the 3e recovery so I could flash CWM and then ROMs. I installed a jellybean rom and it worked completely fine, I then used a program from the market to change DPI, bad idea I guess. After it told me to reboot I did, it gets to the boot screen of the rom but won't go passed that, I can't get into recovery or download mode though to use odin again... grrr frikin annoying.
[STOCK ROM] Odin3 One-Click Downloader and Drivers CAPTIVATE ONLY

For anyone that can't get into download mode, I used this exact method from this video

held it on the 4th and 5th pins, worked instantly.

This was great, I had to re-plug it into all the USB inputs in my computer about 10 times in order for it to finally work but it REVIVED a Captivate with no phone signal whatsoever, having passed thru other one-clicks and ODIN stock ROM's.

I have tried almost everything. My phone is still showing the generic IMEI.

Are IMEI's something that can be shared? Or do they need to be unique?

I suggest you to delete the nv_data.bin and the nv_data.md5 in EFS folder using rootexplorer then rename the .nv_data.bak to nv_data.bin and the .nv_data.md5.bak in nv_data.bin.md5
Imei numbers cannot be shared. They are unique to each phone. To knowingly and with intent change it is a class d felony
I say it was me... I could use some cold beer money !!

I have a small dilemma ...I've used this many times and its worked perfectly .... But I was just using it and it said reset and the att or battery charging screen just keep showing up again and again
odin is samsungs software, it is what they use to load the phones in factory and repair. it is not supposed to be in the publics hands, so that is why customer support knows nothing about it.
the link you provided doesnt work.

Why does CM10 erase my IMEI and do I need this to restore?
I have two phones, so it's not the end of the world, but it is a pain in the ass. Was there a warning somewhere that I would lose my IMEI by agreeing to have /data wiped when I went from AOKP to CM10? Just seems like an unreasonable outcome. Do I need to copy back in my nv_data.bin and set the persmissions and all of that or is there another way to get my IMEI back into the phone?

There's a way to get back your IMEI even though you didn't back it up. There's a thread in the forum that tells you how to do it.

I think everybody here knows they take responsibility for their own devices and what they choose to do with it/them. If you read into some of the aosp/aokp/cm whatever, it is common for your imei to go crazy on those partition schemes.

I realize this imei thing is a touchy subject because
They are specific to each phone and could theoretically be used for wrongdoing but, there must be an easier way, short of, one-clicking back to stock (or sending your phone back to att) to rectify a lost imei/efs folder. I have a cwm flash able zip that is rogers stockk4 gb that I'm hoping might work. Since Odin wont write over my eu bugged data partition, I think this cwm zip may be my only chance at a working phone because all other efforts have yeilded nothing. I haven't flashed it yet because I am loving jb and hoping I can find an easier solution. If your data partition isn't borked by the EU bug this one click should fix you emei problems though. Just wish it could work for me though

The internal beta's are NOT one-click, please read the linked threads
UPDATE: I897UCJH2 (Internal BETA)
You can get it here
UPDATE: I897UCJH3 (Internal BETA)
You can get it here6I uploaded this on my Fileserve account if anyone needs a working link:
http://www.fileserve.com/file/emnCn2j5
if you're getting that, quit and unplug the phone, take out the battery so it's completely dead (and take out the sim card while you're at it)
then put back just the battery and put the phone into download mode (volume down + power)
then run odin and THEN plug in the phone. you have to do it in the right order otherwise it gets stuck on file analysis. go figure.4
Tried the administrator route... no go. I'll give the other way a shot tomorrow since I've got an early start to the day.
Thanks!4
You don't need to root first, just use the cwm zip then flash whatever Rom you want, the Rom will be rooted, rooting before installing cwm to simply flash a Rom is like wiping before you poop
