Stuck in download mode

[mrcoolgli]

I am a long time user of this website, and recently switched from my Touch Pro 2 to my Samsung Captivate. I did put on the Froyo 2.2 leak and it's been alright for the past month. Well tonight I wanted to take a look at Cogintion hoping for a bit more speed without the AT&T bloatware.

I have to say at this point getting Froyo 2.2 on was a pain. It did not work one click. but that's in the past.

So I downloaded the Odin3 from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731989

I let it stay on file analysis for over an hour. When I figured it was stuck, I pulled the power and rebooted to get to the "phone+!+computer" screen. After some more research I was able to get into download mode, and Odin does see the phone but never moves past File Analysis. I tried the Master Clear and it just says Master Clear started.

I found another thread that mentioned that the phones with a build date prior to 1010 did not always play nice with odin, so I tried the procedure in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36

Of course my phone is 1011 and I have not been able to find any info related to my build. At this point nothing is working to recover my phone. Can anyone help?

UPDATE: Good news.. I pulled out an old laptop with windows XP and tried the ODIN3 update again. This time it was sucessfull. I tried this on four different windows 7 machines and could not perform this update. I had full administrative rights, and no antivirus enabled.. So FYI for anyone having issues.

I agree, I have done my friends older phone from various windows 7 phones with no problem. This one was just stubborn. I can tell you I tried at least 20 times to get ODIN to download the files... It would just never move past the first step. I have since this post tried again from Win7 and no go. Works perfect from the any of the three winxp machines I have tried. May have something to do with my build date? Just guessing.
