It tried to install the update, got to 50%, rebooted and told me that the update failed and that nothing happened to my phone. Why did it fail and when will the update work, if ever?
Well the first time I tried to download, my stock rom was Rooted and Bloatware was removed and the update failed to install at 99%. Then I one click back to stock and I got to 50% and failed! I just installed the rom from samfirmware and no issues, I just need to get a hold of an old version of titanium backup!
HTH,
Charlie
anyone? 10char
I tried again to update, it got to the update screen, after a while it said "Perparing" then "update failed phone will reboot". Whats wrong?

Same thing here. I am rooted with the one click root from these forums.
One thing I have noticed in general is my reception is worse with the Captivate than with my old iphone 2g. Also battery life is worse as well.
I hate Apple and love the Captivate. But if this keeps up any longer I am off to verizon and the Droid X. A coworker has it that sits right beside me and its great. He just got the 2.2 update yesterday and everything went fine. Also he can check for an update whenever he wants instead of every 24 hours like ATT. I will pay to get out of my contract and either put this phone on ebay or chunk it.
Maybe this phone can be the first test of my new rock skip app. Here's the idea... you skip your phone like a rock across the water and it records how many skips it took! LOL
I know how you feel, but you have to try to keep a sense of humor through all this!
I mean think about it, we are all driving ourselves crazy trying to figure out how to get the phone to install an update. Hours and hours wasted trying to figure out why the install fails.
And if we ever do get the update to install, no one really even knows for sure if it does anything beneficial....you know you may have a point....another phone is sounding better and better...umm where do I download this rock skip app...
failed at 99 then at 50
I had same experience as another user, rooted, failed at 99%, now gets to 50% then fails. However firmware listed as new version. Also, GPS fix is now SCARY FAST, 3 second inside a building supper accurate, no, error bubble. Quick office for captivate now shows up in market. Media scanning is at least 5 times faster. I think the update actually succeeded for me even though it said fail.
I'm having the same problem. I download the update but it gets to preparing and it fails. Anybody know a reason why? I'm rooted and removed bloatware.

You guys got farther than I did. I have not received the push notification. Yesterday I initiated the pull for the update over wifi, and the download never started -- it just said connection in progress and hung... no error message. Then I had to wait 24 hours. Today, I initiated the pull over wifi, and after about 30 minutes the download started, but the download hung at 14% an hour ago. I called AT&T, and they said they had no info, please call Samsung. I called Samsung, and they said they had no info, please call AT&T. So nobody can tell me why I cannot get a measly little download to complete, nor can the tell me when or if I will get the OTA push. I guess I can try the download every 24 hours and maybe one day it will work.
You may have better luck if you try to use Edge or 3g to download the update. I can't get the update to install but I can get it to download not on wifi but on 3g. Might help.
My focus takes a while to boot up now after the mango update. After I shut it off then power the phone on it stays on "samsung" for a good minute before it loads up so I can use it. Anyone else?????

It will take a little bit for marketplace to let you know about updates but when it does, it'll be large (I had 18 updates come through). Sometimes plugging into Zune makes the app update notification move faster.

Agree with you,my mozart has stopped fetching the updates from marketplace for months...everytime i have do it manually,go into the apps i bought and press share and press back,then the updates will appear. Last time, connecting my device to Zune still works,but now it looks like it is not.
few weeks ago,i connected my device to zune,it also showing 13 updates to me.
this situation is so frustrating,hope microsoft can solve this out....god...as the apps installed on my device is increasing,the manual update thingy,not gonna work soon. Its so damn tired...
Ok! Thanks for the replies! Just wanted to make sure I wasn't alone on this...
Anyway! Mango rocks!!! Still missing features but overall they did a good job!
just got mango update via notification.
no update notes for me yet either and if i look i cant see any... just share...
only one that had the option was samsung now and that is broken and wont update.

Ahh goodo. I'll just leave it for a day or so before doing anything drastic like re-installing them then!
How long did the process of gettin app update notifications take for everyone?
I updated mine around 15 hours ago now and i've still had no notifications. I've been able to go in and "force" an update to check that it will actually work (had to go into the app, press back then re-open it).
Checking the versions of apps i have installed there are a number that are in need of updating.
Everything else is working fine, live tiles, push email, facebook chat etc.. all working well.
Just worried i'm not getting any... people seem to say wait a bit but surely not over 24 hours?
Thanks!
I've had this problem for ages (running HTC Mango RUU) but thought it was just me. I've posted in different forums but no-one seemed to have the same problem.
Two days after installing Mango I had 5 updates for the HTC apps already installed on my phone.
A week after that I got one for Accuweather and then last week I got one for TuneIn radio.
During this time I've manually updated apps such as Flickr and HTC Hub.
It's a bit crap really as the update notifications used to be really quick but now it takes ages.

Same thing here then... I used to get pretty snappy app updates. I don't really want to have to trawl through my installed apps periodicly to see if an update is available :|
Hopefuly it's just something to do with marketplace being busy due to the updates...
Ok - Maybe my impateince?
They've just come through, got 13 updates pending! :s
I guess the network is just busy at the moment!
Hi to all this morning,
I spoke to the local AT&T manager about my phone. The lock screen numbers and letters are "burned" on to my screen. Every time I go to a "light backround, I can see the month, time and "phone locked". The manager told me to call AT&T service. I called the 800 number and was told I have to do a "hard reset" on my phone for the warranty procedure. I have an "unlocked", "rooted" phone. Will a hard reset unroot and lock my phone?
Do I have to "unroot" and "lock" my phone before calling them back?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Jim
Before u return the phone to store, I would strongly recommend restoring to how it was when you got it (stock).

Look for gtg back to stock or h8's back to stock. They both utilize Odin. Just read the op and you should be fine. Let me know if I can help.

I do need your help. I downloaded the app you suggested and tried several times to use it. Here is my problem.
My computer connects via usb for mass storage an media on com port 9
I have downloaded all the latest usb drivers for Windows Visa. When I use the procedure suggested by gtg, the com port does not show up in the Comm ID box. I have tried and re-tried several time with the same result.
Can you help??
My display is getting worse every day.
Thanks,

I assume that you are using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116251 one.
I had to use this a whole bunch of times when I just started flashing and though it worked really well the first time after that it started to not work as well. Switch your USB ports that you plug your phone into. This will make it show up in a different are other than just COMM 9. If you cannot get it to work in any USB try a different computer, leave it sitting there for a long time. I don't think that it really had anything to do with my eventual sucess but after just leaving the battery out and the cord plugged into nothing made it work. Just telling you my experience. I hope that you are able to figure out what is wrong and flash back to stock before your screen gets any worse!
So you tried to odin back to stock and it doesn't work?

More questions,
It did not seem like it wiped everything off. auto reboot was checked and fast reset was checked.
first block on top left is green and says passed time 4.49
Just wanted to says thanks. I plugged the phone into my laptop and it worked. Now I am fighting with AT&T to get it returned. They seem to think a display hardware issue is a software/virus issue. Thanks I got it to work with your help!!
Kind Regards,
Jim

No problem. Glad that I could help. And do push the issue. Right to the manager if they still won't take it. Or you could try calling them and eventually you will find one rep who is willing to push it through. Either they will be dumb and don't know what they are doing or they will know where you are coming from and help get it returned. If not, and you are still under warranty you might be able to send it back to Samsung and see what they will do about it. Good luck!
i believe if its under 30 days they take it back on the spot and exchange it for you.. if not they might ask you if you have insurance on you phone and send it out to a authorized ATT repair store... just my expierience...
I just got my HTC One XL on Rogers netwrok, upgraded from my old SGS2. I have had a cpl little bugs that I worked out, but this one is irritating me, and I can find no answer for it.
I set my phone to network time, yet in the morning, it is off by about 15 min early. I thought maybe it was a network issue, so I just went to manual time settings, but this morning, I noticed it was again 15 min off. Checked my setting, still on manual, flipped to network, and the time stayed the same, changed to back to manual and reset to proper time, time shows as it is supposed to. Back to network, time flips to the 15 min early, and back to manual for proper time.
This was at 930 this morning, or 915 as my phone says.....now before I called Rogers at 1130 this morning, I again flipped it to network time, and the time is bang on....much like I found it yesterday.
I also checked my setting on my SGS2, and my wifes BB 9900, both set to Rogers network time, both showing the right time, yet my device if 15 min off
I don't know why, it is really annoying, and potentially detrimental since I use my phone for my alarm, but now can't trust it to make me on time.....and even more annoying, since the bloody manual time setting didn't even stick, it to changed to the wrong time.
I spoke with Rogers, they didn't have a clue, but recommended a master reset. Well, I had some wifi issues before that were corrected with the master reset, while the time issues I noticed both before, and after the reset, so it apparently did nothing for me there...besides, until I root this device, I don't really want to go resetting anymore, too much of a pain in the a$$ to put it all back together again
Please help, it is really annoying.
I just noticed this too except mine has been delayed 3-5mins. However, it seems to correct it itself somehow but it repeats the delay once in awhile.
I had a thread on here for same thing. However it seemed to randomly stop.
For me it would happen even when manaly setting time.

I had the same issue with att model. After I did a factory reset it fixed the issue.

I woke up this morning and didn't hear my alarm go off...the phone was 20mins behind. What's going on here? It has to some sort of bug that causing the time to "freeze". In fact, the alarm didn't go off at all because it jumped to the correct time a few minutes after I turned on the phone!
WOW! I'm so glad I saw this thread, i thought i was going CRAZY.
Ive missed my train in the AM 3 times now because of this issue.. I've tried Automatic and Manual time setting, and it seems like the phone is always off 7 minutes when I wake up...
Last night i set the time manually after checking it by searching "time" in google..
when i woke up this AM, i again searched for time in google, and the phone time was off by 7 minutes, AGAIN.
I've since set it to automatic, but i know this won't solve the problem..
BTW, this is on AT&T so the problem is not limited to Rogers..
nobody else out there having these issues?
have done 8 factory resets, rooted and unrooted, plus reflashed the stock ruu once as well......still no difference........getting really annoyed with this.
Time issue on AT&T with HTC OneXL
I have spoke with AT&T about this and they said I was the first to bring this to their attention. They did some network troubleshooting and after about an hour on the phone with tech support...they determined it was my phone. Funny cause I told him that to begin with! They said that a OTA was coming sometime between today (6/2) the end of next week and to try a master reset in the mean time. He said the OTA was an update to fix the wifi issue...but maybe it will also fix my time issue. He said if it didn't...I could claim insurance!....what!!!!!...A brand new phone that cant keep time and I am the one spending money to fix this!....LOL...Anyways, If the OTA doesnt fix it...I am taking it back for a full refund and a restoration of my upgrade. ...just my 2 cents
I received my Nexus about an hour ago and it doesn't seem to be able to finish downloading the update. Because it's not actually into the main launcher yet I have no idea what kind of progress it's making (there's no progress bar, no connectivity listing, and no ability to open the browser).
Anyone else having issues?
I'm connected to my work wifi for devices, but I honestly can't remember if it opens a browser window to accept the terms of use on first connect (we just changed to this type of wifi around last year, with independent logins per user and such. Around that time is when I connected all of my various devices, so I can't remember if there was some type of acceptance page. Then again, they could just be blocking one of the ports in use by this updater...I really can't tell what's happening.
BTW it's a 125.8MB update...which should take around 6-7 seconds to download on the work network, if it's working correctly. It's now been 20 minutes (on and off).

I haven't gone home to pickup my new Nexus 5. but my expectation is that the server is getting hammered right now due to everyone getting their new hardware.
I'd expect launch day to go slow.

Possibly...but the download hasn't even started for ~2 hours or so now. Moving slowly is one thing, but it did everything up until the update fairly quickly, and just refuses to start it.
I'll post if I have issues later tonight. I haven't gotten my hands on my device yet.
Mine sat doing nothing when I first tried the update. After a while I pressed the back key, and then forward again to the update. This time it started downloading.

Must be a port getting blocked at work, then. Boo.
It's weird...the wifi works wonderfully here, but the occasional update just doesn't work. In the Play Store, it'll update 10 apps great and one it won't (at all).
After i got my device it updated perfectly. I was at home.
Hi, I'm having this issue too. It looks like the download doesn't progress. I already tried to reboot the phone and to connect on 2 different wifi networks (home and neighbour).
Still waiting since an hour...

This was the case for me as well. Initially I tried to DL the update on LTE. I cancelled it, went back, signed on to my WiFi and tried again and it flew through the download with no issues at all.
Problem seems to be just solved. I removed the sim card. Still didn't work. And then I restored it. After the reboot the progress bar was completed in 1 sec. It's now rebooting and updating
I'm pretty sure the sim card has nothing to deal with this issue. Obviously google servers issue.
