Do you have any plans to release anything that can fix a black screen hard brick? Or is JTAG the ONLY possible option in this kind of brick?

again while installing the drivers from the 'Zadig' windows it says 0 devices detected when my phone is plugged in, in download mode.
is there any way to manually install the drivers?

help?

EDIT:
k.. not exactly sure what happened, but after unplugging my phone the actual app opened up but when i press the soft unbrick button it says:
'ERROR
Usb drivers are not properly installed
You must manually install drivers'

how do i do that?

in zadig in one of the menus is an option to show all devices...click that and you will see samsung composite device to select

I don't know what this Software does, but it pulled my phone from Phone + computer screen. The phone refused to go to download mode using any key combos discussed on this forum and jig seemed to be the next best option. But this software worked it's magic and pulled it out from that soft bricked state.

Success. What OS/ architecture?

You want to purposefully brick your phone just to try?

Background
If you would like to test this, just put your phone into download mode and click the unsoft brick button. It will simply reboot your phone. It will not flash any firmware and it does not have the capability to do anything except release the locks which prevent a phone from booting if they are present.

How about ^^^this^^^?

New version released: fixes Winodws 7 and Vista. Adds countdown to non-imperative notifications. Adds real-time monitoring to determine if dependencies are actually required on Windows, rather then blindly installing. Since windows is such a PITA, this was alot of work.

This should work great with no dependencies except Java installed.

Verified working on Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, OS X, and Debian based Linux distributions including Ubuntu and Mint

I need verification from another vista/7 machine that it is so simple a dummy could do it without a manual.

Edit: i need this info so I can close out a bug report. There has been 250 downloads since 11pm on 3july2011. I have not heard from any win7 guys yet. I dont have a win7 machine to test with.

This doesn't find my device. I am running Windows 7 x64. Drivers work on Odin.

If it says you need drivers, its 99% chance you need to install the drivers. 1% you need a new cable. Heimdall communicates more directly with the device's datastream. Odin driver uses shortcuts in its driver. I guess I need to specify that. Did it bring up the zadig window for you?


Edit.. Let me reword that... Samsung didn't write the usb gadget protocol... they wrote a lousy version of it.

    Try One-Click UnBrick... If that doesn't work:
    Try "3 button combo".. If that doesn't work:
    Try a "301k Factory Mode jig"... If that doesn't work:
    Try UnBrickable Mod http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1236273 (if available on your platform)
    If you require additional help, send me a private message, we can work something out.


    Background
    I've been working on stopping the bricking problem on our phones for a while now.
    Ever tried JTAG unbrick recovery?--superhuman soldering skills no longer required for JTAG
    Developing methods to recover bricks without JTAG - I keep this updated with current information as it develops.
    ALL JIG VALUES here! --this will give you some resistor values to try
    Altered water damage indicators --um... just in case you lick your battery and need warranty replacement
    The Galaxy S Hack Pack--A compilation of resources for Galaxy S Phones.

    I wanted to write some software which will help the user to understand what they are doing.. So I began the Heimdall One-Click project. http://code.google.com/p/heimdall-one-click/ Heimdall One-Click is not yet finished, but the Unbrick is complete. Heimdall One-Click is based on binaries from another Open-Source project, called Heimdall by XDA member Benjamin Dobell.

    About One-Click UnBrick

    This Software:
    • Will work on all Samsung devices which use Odin3
    • Is a single, portable executable
    • Is the first one-click anything for our devices on Linux
    • Works on Mac
    • Works on Windows
    • Is open source
    • Is programmed in Java
    • Deploys and installs Heimdall for your OS
    • Is super easy to use.... Only one button!

    Demonstration video:

    Image captured on Ubuntu 11.04:

    This software is completely safe. It is a part of my Heimdall One-Click project. I wanted to release this to work out any cross-platform difficulties which may be encountered before I release Heimdall One-Click.


    Instructions
    1. Copy OneClick.jar to your Desktop-- or any other folder on your computer, It won't work on a network share.
    2. Double click. -- As long as you have Java installed On Linux and Mac you are up and running.

    For some versions of Windows as a work around to UAC (User Access Control, the annoying popups), a executable called "OneClickLoader.exe" has been deployed to the same folder as OneClick.jar. It is important that you do not rename OneClick.jar until after runnning OneClickLoader.exe
    3. right click OneClickLoader.exe and select "Run as Administrator" -- Setup should be run-of-the-mill.


    It works with all softbricked condition basically.

    Stuck in a boot loop?
    Is it still able to boot into CWM(Recovery Mode) or Download Mode.
    If it's still able to go back into Download Mode, you don't need this software.
    Just turn your Captivate into the Download Mode and flash back to STOCK Eclair or Froyo using Odin 1 Click or whatever similar.

    I am very interested in feedback. If you would like to test this, just put your phone into download mode and click the unsoft brick button. It will simply reboot your phone. It will not flash any firmware and it does not have the capability to do anything except release the locks which prevent a phone from booting if they are present.

    note: If you are having problems with drivers, This is caused by an invalid USB Device ID in the ROM installed on the phone.



    If you'd like to contribute to the next version
    Testing on your platform is as simple as putting your phone into download mode and clicking the button. It will simply reboot the phone if the phone is not bricked.
    Grab the code from the SVN: checkout http://heimdall-one-click.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
    You can modify the code with NetBeans: http://netbeans.org/downloads/

    just as a heads up, not every environment will play nice with the "doube click to run" as the file is stored now on google code. if you're on linux, simply either chmod +x the file or do "java -jar ./OneClick.jar" to run it (assuming java is in your path). seems ubuntu (and derivatives, I guess) assume the jar file wants to be opened with archive manager by default, so set it to run with java beforehand (launched with sun java 6, didn't try openjdk)

    add to that the application doesn't seem to reliably recognize heimdall 1.0.1 CLI... attempting to run it returns a blank version string but after updating to 1.0.2b it recognized it fine. not world-ending, but just something I thought you should be aware of.

    I'm a bit more interested in your heimdall one-click attempts though, as I'd like to see something like that implemented for 2.2 (since not every captivate can go back to JF6 it seems)... I've been pointing people at the leaked JI6 odin one-click for now, as it contains all the necessary files and is usable on every device.

    True... I'll add that to the first post.

    Heimdall one-click is operational. I'm working the kinks out of it with the one-click unbrick first. I've sucessfully flashed my phone on all three platforms using heimdall one-click. I don't feel comfortable releasing something like that without thorough testing. This is basically testing for my one-click platform.

    wow this looks neat...i will definitely fire it up next time i brick my epic! great job AdamOutler!

    edit: tested and it did kick my epic out of download mode in windows

    if the command above gives you issues on windows 7 then do the following:
    click the start button
    goto programs>accessories>
    right click on 'command prompt' and select run as administrator
    cd to your download folder (ie: cd c:\downloads\oneclick\)
    then type 'java -jar OneClick.jar'

    you should only have to do all of that the first time so drivers for heimdall can be installed correctly

    AdamOutler is working a better solution for the windows crowd

    Adam,

    Great work man, have yet to try it, but I have a few questions.

    Odin (for me) can be a bit fussy at times, and I have had to try several things to get it to flash through a complete process. Changing USB ports, pulling battery after digger screen is up, etc, etc.

    Is Heimdall less "fussy" in your opinion? Or can we expect some of the same issues we run into when using Odin?

    I appreciate it, thanks!

    Yes, heimdall is less fussy. You just need drivers and heimdall.
