Is it fixed or not?

If not, get stock KK4 on Odin One Click or Heimdall, you'll be able to flash it being in download mode.
I'm bricked again now it saying " firmware upgrade fail "
I tried stock KK4 on Odin One Click .. but it is the first reason to brick :(
Help please

I can't help you if you don't provide more information..

What did you do when you tried to flash stock KK4 with Odin? What happened?
What Odin said when the flash was completed? Did the phone reboot itself?
Did you flash the version with the Bootloaders or not? (You need the Bootloaders version if you're coming from Eclair or Froyo)

You mentioned you were on Eclair, you can't flash something that is meant for GB and up without having the required bootloaders.

Do you get any response from your phone? Tried the button combos?

If so, you might have to buy/build a jig to force your phone in download mode and be able to flash KKA with bootloaders.

PS.: Next time, do more reading and make sure you fully understand what you're doing before flashing.

A USB jig? if so, you simply put it in your phone's usb jack (make sure you battery is charge) and it will force it in download mode. From there, read the steps I posted above.

Your made sure your battery is charged?

If the jig isn't working and you get no response from your phone at all then a JTAG/riftbox might be your only option.

Happy news .. My friend help me to fix this ..
I think this will help some one in that and i will write here how we did that ... ( there is no clearway but don't giveup )


Try this when there is nothing to do and stuck on this screen



1) Use Jig to get downloadmode
If it's works just flash a rom / firmware using odin
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989

2) when jig isn't help you and can't get in to downloadmode
remove your battery and put it again and open odin and connect your data cable to phone
Some times odin will get your phone with "Firmware upgrade fail!" ..

If your phone get into odin ( yellow signal ) make it fast and flash any bootloader file using it ( that compatible to captivate )...
after that you can go to downloadmode using Jig

3) If this not work try removing battery and pushing vol. keys and connect your phone with cable ..
In this sometimes your phone will get into odin .. flash a bootloader file using odin

Try 3rd step over 20 times there is a chance .. ( there is no other way to do this except that JTAG/riftbox .. i never want to try this )

I did this over 100 times and last my phone recognized by computer ..
But phone will not show any downloadmode symbol this will connect with that "Firmware upgrade fail!" screen ..

This is all i did :D
I hope any one will help this

Thanks every one who helped me :D

I'm not sure what you mean with the hboot. But you definately didn't flash the wrong bootloaders.

Can you be more specific with your problem?

Oh ok, volume up and down + power button, you release them when you see the AT&T screen
