Android 2.3.4 for i9020A

Ive been using the manual method for a few days now, and it works fine on 2.3.4 however the battery seemed to drain faster than normal

Is this just the update file and will it mess up my radio/reception/GPS? I'm looking to keep my NS as "clean" as possible and run my Captivate into the ground lol.

Unable to Update

Anyone else have an issue where "Check for Updates" is 100% non-functional? Since I first got the phone, checking for updates always results in the window vanishing and nothing happening. My girlfriend's Thunderbolt always pops up a window saying no updates available. Today when the OTA finally rolled out, her phone picked it right up when I checked for updates. My phone still sits there like it's staring at a wall confused. I've done probably ten factory resets since I got the phone and it maintained the same behaviour each time. Is this a hardware issue or am I not clearing something that the factory reset does not get? Not really a dealbreaker as I can update through HBOOT, but annoying to say the least.

I'm having the same issue. Well explained btw.

You are probably in a non-4G area and the problem is due to eHRPD. Revert to revision A and then try to update and see if it is any better.
eHRPD has issues... (though Verizon keeps claiming they've fixed it).

I have the same problem and it happens on 4g too. If I press the check for updates button enough it will tell me network isn't available when it is

Sorry to hear that bro, are you rooted? I did glance at you op again and we were having different results. You said your update search window would disappear, but mine would say network not available. I also apologize for misleading you. I'm not sure if this would be a hardware problem, probably more of a software one. But if you really want to I would just root and get the update from jcase's thread or if that isn't the route you want to take maybe Verizon can help. I know, I know, they normally don't but you never know.

I may just go ahead and root. That way my inability to update would be a "feature" and no longer a bug.

Root is definitely the way to go as long as you've done your homework. If you haven't taken this step before make sure you read through everything and understand what you are doing before proceeding. If you have any problems or questions feel free to pm me.

I am having the same exact issue. I even tried manually updating the update.zip file and I keep getting an operation error and phone just reboots. Any ideas why this is happening?

if you are manually doing it the file needs to be in the root of your sd card and named PG05IMG.zip

Will my device be wiped if I use that instead it update.zip?

By doing this, will it wipe my phone or will everything still be intact (like the true ota update)? I still havent received the update and everytime i hit the check new on my phone, the box comes up saying Checking for new Software available now but then quickly just disappears. It seems like it it not fully connecting to servers to check for an update. It has been doing this since day 1 and im getting the feeling I will never receive this update over the air.

Netflix has vanished

I can't find netflix on the market anymore. anyone else having this issue? I'm guessing this might be an isolated incident. I've had a couple market issues since flashing synergy 6/1 but I thought I had squashed them.

I'm pretty sure that it's due to it not working on the official Gingerbread release. I updated my wife's unrooted phone today, and Netflix stopped working. It would start the stream, but it would stop and then go back to the queue.

I just checked market and sure enough, its gone. Maybe good news is just around the corner for us who havent been able to run it.

I just called netflix their words were "Near Future" Which means yes they will fix sense 2.1

Very cool. Thanks for making that call. Thanks button mashed.

I wonder why they would take it off though. Why not just release an update when it's ready. Hmm. Oh well.

Because it would reduce call volume if people thought it was gone and new users wouldn't even know it existed.

I see. That makes sense. Makes me happy! The only draw back to this rom has been not having netflix. Hopefully that will be remedied soon.

After speaking with my Dad who didnt even know there was a Netflix App, decided to download it before it disappeared and the Market said that his EVO wasnt a supported phone. I am under the impression that Netflix dropped support for both 2.2 and 2.3 on the EVO until they can fix it for both.

hmmm i still have it in the market but heres a change
Currently Netflix playback is supported on the following phones:
• HTC Incredible with Android 2.2
• HTC Nexus One with Android 2.2, 2.3
• HTC G2 with Android 2.2
• Samsung Nexus S with Android 2.3
• Motorola Droid with Android 2.2
• LG Revolution with Android 2.2
• Casio G'zOne Commando C771 with Android 2.2

I noticed that, and trust your input. I'll never understand why some people just post stupid crap like this guy did. If I'd noticed it was his first post I wouldn't have bothered.

I have an older .apk for the NetFlix app and when I install it and open it, it tells me I HAVE to upgrade to continue, then searches the market and says requested item cannot be found, click OK and right back to the you must upgrade screen.. so it appears that the NetFlix app is gone completely for the Evo until the fix the 2.3 issue. Can anyone else confirm the same?

I noticed that too! This really sucks ! Now what am I going to do at work? Maybe its time to introduce ubuntu to the work place

why wouldn't it work on the new update? it works on cm7 and thats running 2.3.4 -.-

Have you tried running it recently (since the update?) Possibly if you were lucky enough to have the last version they had before they pulled it for the EVO then maybe it will still work for you, but the older version I have doesn't work.

I have the last version. When I tried playing anything it would load and say that netflix had not been activated on my device. Not that it worked to begin with, but that message is new to me.

Guys server side Netflix has pulled support for our phone until they fix it. It will not work on any version

On MIUI - had it pushed to me last week. At first I thought it was a pita to use.
But... after I played with it a bit I think I like it a lot better than the old market.
The only thing I don't like is that it is painful if your not on wireless and have a slow connection.

I am not liking the update at all....

Everyone was so excited when this was first announced.
They took out the option to disable the "updates available" notification.
Also youtube and flash player don't show up under "my apps" in the market anymore. If I search them, they say installed and allow updating that way

For me, on my phone, clearing market cache and titanium market doctor/linking are not fixing it either.

Your flaming/personal attacks have been reported to the moderator
Normally bugs don't affect every user/configuration. They would be quickly/easily fixed if they did. Just because the bug doesn't affect you doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
:edit:

Its at the top of the list of market issues. The problem is definitely real

Alright guys let's play nicely ok.....

[q] current stock firmware?

I just swapped out my infuse for a new one bc of problems, but i could swear my other one was on 2.2.3 and this one is on 2.2.1
mainly i noticed a difference bc the home screen doesn't do the same "puzzle piece" thing it did before and other random little things here and there are different.
any clues?
oh and duh hitting the update button says there are no updates.

Mine says 2.2.1

What's the build number in Settings->About Phone at the bottom?
Original AT&T firmware was UCKD5, the small AT&T update was UCKE3. New phones might be coming with E3.
