My condition seems fairly unique:

  • Samsung Captivate (Model i896)
  • Rogers Wireless (Canada)
  • OSX (mac air, too small to install bootcamp)

Reference URLs (nothing verified working!)

Steps that worked for me

$ tar xvf captivate-recovery-cwm5-kernel.tar
  • Start cellphone in download mode by holding volume down, power on, and plugging in the USB. Note: You have to have USB debugging turned on in system settings!
$ heimdall flash --kernel zImage

Stock image

I needed to go back to the stock Rogers Wireless image on osx. I downloaded the stock image, and ran heimdall in download mode:

$ heimdall flash --primary-boot boot.bin --cache cache.rfs  --factoryfs factoryfs.rfs  --secondary-boot Sbl.bin --kernel zImage --verbose
