Samsung 300k Tool Error 995

Just wanted to add a thanks and one more success story. I 'soft-bricked' my Captivate last week while trying to flash to stock, apparently a fairly common story where Odin began the process (got past Analyzing files.) and then just hung for an eternity.
FAQs all around said unplug the phone and try again, but like many, the 3-button trick was not working on my phone. I spent 6 hours trying every variation on the button tricks, and no matter what I did, I got the phone+!+computer (which I've affectionately call 'P!C'). I stripped a cable I had handy and discovered it had only four pinouts, the critical ID pin wasn't on the connector for the cable I stripped. I ordered two of the breakout boards from SparkFun, paid $23 for next day shipping, and waited two lonely, phoneless nights. In the meantime, I picked through my parts box and tested resistors until I found the right combo. I used 5% tolerance rad-shack resistors, and ended up with what should be a total resistance of 305.7kOhms (3x100k + 1x4.7k + 1x1k), but on my two multimeters comes up as exactly 301k. When the sparkfun boards arrived, I soldered everything together using a spare breadboard, and crossed my fingers.
Stuck the battery in, plugged the breakout board in, scrunched my face up real hard. Ta-da, the most beautiful yellow triangle I've ever seen. An hour later I was rocking my custom rom, restoring my TiBu backups and reveling in my obvious superiority over everyone with a stock Captivate. Thanks again to TheBeano and double-thanks to xredjokerx whose solderless jig post was the first mention I saw of SparkFun's breakout board. You're all life savers - I was not looking forward to trying to return this sucker. I had this same problem when I succeeded last week. While I was trying to get my 3-button to work, I'd uninstalled all of my Samsung drivers and then installed the generic pack which was linked to from the Odin one-click tool I was using.
Here's what I did to get Odin working again. 1) Reinstalled the Samsung drivers specific for my phone from the Samsung website, not the media-download ones, and rebooted the machine. 2) Tried Odin again, while this time more drivers loaded, Odin still didn't recognize my phone. 3) Unplugged phone again.
Construction tolerances. ARCHITECT’S HANDBOOK of Construction Detailing. This book is printed on acid-free paper. 3-2 Steel Column/Beam Connection Tolerances 05 05 03.1 145.
4) Went into the directory with the generic driver pack (the one linked to from the forums, not the one from Samsung's site) and looked at all the subdirectories, thinking perhaps I'd somehow uninstalled the actual driver I required. 5) Noticed '12_Symbian_USB_Download_Driver' 6) Opened that folder in Explorer, right-clicked on SSUSBDownload.inf, and clicked 'install'. 7) Closed and re-opened Odin 8) Plugged in phone, Windows recognized it, Odin found it.
Really hope this helps. This was probably the trickiest thing I managed to figure out on my own, hopefully it's the same thing that happened to you. All this assumes that you've already had Odin recognize the phone once. If not, then you probably just need the generic driver pack I mentioned, which is probably linked to from whichever thread you fetched your Odin from. So here's my success story. Flashed an old JM1 to get Kies updates the official way, and it killed my 3BR - so watch out what you flash!

Then it froze while trying to flash a 3BR fix = soft brick. Nothing but the connection error with a small exclamation mark yellow bang. So I bought a micro usb adaptor and two resisotors, a 300k and a 1k (1% tolerance). Asked the guy at the store to measure them on site, they totaled exactly 301k. Then, the DIY part. Don't start without a sharp solder station and very steady hands, the connectors are less than 1mm wide.
So I cut out the micro usb jack out of the adaptor and soldered the two resistors. I'm attaching below two pictures to illustrate how, as the pins are located quite non-intuitively on the back of the jack.
