[Q] Flash Captivate back to stock

Does anybody know how to flash my captivate back to the original att stock rom? I installed that new froyo update but too much of the stuff i like is now missing. I would like to flash it back to the stock rom eclair and wait until the official release from ATT, besides it's really not much faster then the original stock rom anyways

missing stuff? Everything is there if you flashed the stock 2.2...

yes missing stuff
The android market doesn't recognize this build so a lot of the apps that i had before i downloaded the 1 step 2.2 is no longer available to be me on the market. Not to mention still no dial from bluetooth headset support. Also I can connect to the att update software server anymore. So when there is an official update from android and att ota, i won't be able to get it. From what im hearing the official release will have bluetooth support so that i can use voice activated dialing. I don't understand how any cell phone company can make a phone now these days with out that already cooked into there stock rom. Most of all i can't believe i bought this phone knowing it did have voice acivated dialing...luckly im still within my 30 day return policy. I will be taking it back to best buy and trading it for the iphone 4. Reception might not be that great but that can be fixed with a case. At least it has voice activated dialing which is essential today. Not too happy with the captivate...but thats what i get for venturing out to try something new i guess...lol!!! i have learned my lesson...stick to apple....lol

Use Odin one click, if you can't find it with that much information you shouldn't be on the internet, much less flashing your phone...and really this isn't development at all, this doesn't even belong in general anymore due to the number of times this has been answered in dev, general, and the individual threads of the developers making the ROMs.

Wow...your pretty rude, but i have come to expect that from xda...anyways i'll be returning this piece of junk to ATT today...i was told this morning they are well aware of the froyo beta file out there and are telling folks that it's not the final release. They did offer to take the phone back even though i already flashed it. So that's cool Steve Jobs here i come!!!! im gettting a real phone...an iphone

Good Riddens Troll!!

i feel sorry for you people who flashed that new rom....lol!!! you shall see peace out butts!!!!!

shut up ass

I don't recall anyone expecting rudeness here at XDA, everyone treats people with the level of respect they are due. If you come on here basically slapping devs, the android OS and Samsung in the face with your comments, you can't honestly expect the friendliest of replies. Good luck with your iPhone and its developmental limitations. Our forum here is to share knowledge and developments in each respective phone and OS field, not to just bad mouth a phone and OS because you decided not to properly research their capabilities. The search function serves its purpose well as do the plethora of FAQs around the forum.

Here's how i see it first of all you don't know Apple that well to advise that they have developmental limitations...obviously the stock price compared to google Android tells the story...enough said there. Number two I was just asking a general question and one your drones decided to insult me by calling me a "troll." I honestly don't see why you people get so upset at the mention of the iphone and Apple, who's on the defensive here? Im pretty sure Apple doesn't see android as a threat and im sure they are not on the defensive about the samsung captivate. At the end of the day...apple has been doing it a lot longer then Android and that's that. Most of the apps on the android market are junk because the market is not regulated like the App store at Apple so the so-cal developers can put anything on the android marke regardless to the app doing what it's suppose to do. Apple on the other won't allow developers to put apps in the App store unless it does what it suppose to do...is that what you meant by "develpmental limitations?" Because Apple won't allow you so-cal developers to pass off junk onto the App store like they do for android? At the end of the day Apple will continue to be the leader and Android will continue to try and keep up. Enjoy you Captivate, lets see how long your captivated by it.

Jumped from captivate to atrix

Well boys and girls I just want to say thank you for the fun. I've made the jump to the atrix and I am loving it.
Thanks to all the developers who made my captivate usable. Gonna miss these forums, but its time for me to use a better phone.
Later all.

No more mkv playback for you.

And a locked bootloader to boot.....

Have you guys tried one of these yet? And I ask that not as a smartass ir anything but seriously. This phone is amazing. I don't see anything wrong with it and don't feel the need to use a ROM on it.
This is what a phone should be like. I'll accept all the negatives you guys listed. Besides....the gps works
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App

I must say I didn't notice my GPS not working on my captivate when I had it navigating me to a tire repair shop today... thank god for making it give me turn by turn directions. lol.. but seriously GPS works thanks to Devs! and Yes I've tried a Atrix out and it just wasn't for me, not sure if its the Blurr or what it just felt sluggish for the UI.
Now the Inspire feels good smooth no locked boot loader, OC 1.8GHz now that is a piece of hardware I'd get my hands on if I didn't know there were better phone's right around the corner

Oh my gps worked on my captivate after finding the right ROM. This one just happens to work out of the box. About to go hook the phone up to my hdtv with the included hdmi cable and watch some videos I took

don't mean to sound like a jerk, but maybe all these recent threads about people jumping ship can be stopped by making a sticky and ONE thread where members can says goodbye to all and thanks to the devs - and even thoughts on their new purchases.

Man quit being a jerk! Seriously though, you're right in a way, but really I think the multiple threads are fine and those who have an issue with them need to remember that they don't have to read them. They really cause no harm. People will be people and do it even with a sticky and people will still complain about it.

I had an atrix for a day and it was enough for me. The phone was very fast but the screen did not compare to my captivate. I'll be waiting for the galaxy s2 to come out.

Agreed. Why does everyone feel obligated to say they're leaving the captivate? I mean how important can that actually be

Lol it is a great phone; very fast and has a ton of RAM. I'm actually taking mine back in place of a Captivate and Nexus 1 tomorrow though.
I'm sure the bootloader will get cracked or something eventually and when that happens, my upgrade will be used.

These threads do nothing but cause conflicts as the the person leaving will always gush over their new purchase (and sometimes put down their previous device) while thread readers will always defend their device because they still have it.
I can't help but think that these thread starters do so with the intent to ruffle some feathers on their way out. More like a "I'm better than you" attitude masked by pretending to thank the community and developers. If they really wanted to thank developers, they would send them a PM. As for thanking the rest of the community, in all due respect, I don't think anyone really cares.
Now if it was a prominent developer leaving, I could see the reason for a thread in the general forums but a run-of-the-mill user who hasn't contributed anything significant won't affect anyone in the slightest.
Conclusion: These threads are a waste of time.

Thank you so much for assuming my intentions. In all honesty I was thanking the devs and simply saying goodbye.to a good bunch of people.
Personally I think that everyone who has to ***** about a thread they don't want to read are a waste if space and are only doing so to call attention to the fact that they seem to think they are better than anyone else and want nothing more than to belittle everyone.
So glad though that you could see right through my guise and to the heart of the matter.
Maybe one day you will realize that no one really gives a **** about you and that you are a waste of space, but I digress, I wouldn't want someone to assume I harbored any ill will to someone who is only here to make himself feel better about, well himself.
Again thank you devs. You made a good phone great, but I would rather have a phone that worked out of the box and.provided a great experiance that can be built upon, than a phone that could have been great out.of the box, but had to be improved upon to make it usable.

Oh wow this thread is funny. I could care less about people saying they got rid of their captivate and went with something else. I personally like reading threads like this and hearing debates about the differences it makes me know good and bad points about each phone. But I definitely seems like the dude was just thanking developers and saying goodbye...maybe bragging a little that he just upgraged to a dual core processing phone but that cool there's nothing wrong with that.
As for me I still love my captivate and am excited about the galaxy s 2. Super amoled plus and all the other good stuff. Plus I don't care what people say about samsung I love em. Maybe they suck at updates but whatever.

I wasn't saying that he was doing any different. But there has been a more than a few of these threads as of late, and I just feel it takes a bit away from people coming in to these forums looking to discuss their current phones.

Hey Darell, is that true that the GPS connects very very fast?? I saw a video and took only very few seconds to connect.

I am happy your happy with your new Atrix. I did go to the store to try it out, seems nice overall, but not really 'nicer' than the captivate to me. I do love the screen on the captivate. I am waiting myself for tegra 3 phones before I jump...

If they really want to thank the developers they should just donate to the whomever's ROM they were using and move on. The "Bye, I've left for the XXX" just comes off as rubbing our noses in it. Nobody really cares.

$100 Bounty

I am new to xda but I think I speak for everyone. We are tired of waiting for asop. We don't want no look alike or no desensed B.S. WE WANT THE REAL THING! $100 WILL BE DONATED TO THE FIRST DEVELOPER TO POST AN ASOP ROM THAT WORKS. WE CAN WAIT FOR CAMERA,WIFI ECT TO BE FIXED. ALSO DEV FOR HIRE. $100 per rom and $50 and upgrade. I use to pay Jaywan to be my personal dev. But he has cancer and can no longer dev for me. Any Dev can contact him to see if I really pay up or not. So if you wanna make some cash PM ME!

i'll pay $150 to who ever can get that SWEEEEET Sense 3.0 on our Thunderbolts

I don't know if this is a joke or not but it's not funny if it is. Throwing money around just shows how immature and impatient you are.
Also, these Dev's are working their asses off trying to get this to work it's not like they are sitting at home doing nothing. Just let them do their thing and eventually you and all of us will get what we want.

Just wait for CM7 and donate money to them.
They will do the best job for AOSP rom.
It will start off full of bugs, so I am sure you don't want to pay $150 for bugs?
Just be patient and sense is pretty good, I think AOSP is rather boring as it makes all phones look the same.

All of the AOSP ROM devs are waiting for the same thing... working RIL. This has been finalized (according to the CM devs working on the Mecha) but not posted to Git.
No RIL code has been published meaning no AOSP ROMs either.
Patience is key. It will all happen in due time. I am willing to wait a tad extra in exchange for a thorough job on development.

google writes the code for android, then releases it to the github repository for anyone, any manufacturer, to pull down, compile, and flash to their device. HTC and companies also take this code, customize it, and sell devices.
AOSP is jsut the pure, unedited, the-way-google-intended, stock android operating system. its what the nexus one and nexus s run. its much better (i think) than sense UI or any other customized manufacturer skin out there. pure, elegant, android goodness.
also, htc sense is closed source. using AOSP version, all the code is there for you to look at, make a change, edit a driver, compile that ROM and flash to your device. you do not have access to HTC sense secret stuff, but AOSP is all open source.

Besides, if any member of AndIRC is the one who releases, they'll want you to donate to a charity or someone who needs it.
Just do yourself a favor and wait.

Look guys money talks. Any developer that wants to talk business I'm all ears... And i pay well.

Wheres the ICX game launcher gone?

What happened to the ICX game launcher. I looked on their website and couldn't find it and the threads closed, did they scrap it?
sent from my r800i using XDA app.

Good question.
I remember DeanBoro said that his Xperia PLAY's screen was broken, but that was like half a week after the topic was closed by request.
I do hope it eventually comes together soon though (and by soon, I definitely don't mean Gameloft's interpretation of the word) because I'd done nearly everything but completely delete the official launcher in anticipation of this customizable one.

I messaged DeanBoro about it after I saw the thread closed and this was his response.
"This is still under development but it is slow development at this moment because I am no longer working on it as my Play has been broken. HOWEVER another member of the team is working on it but ICX have alot of things to do at this moment in time i will inform you if there is any progress."
So I will be patient and if it comes out it comes out.

Thanks for posting this jgregoryj1.
As he quoted above. My play has been shattered and as I don't really have an income of any sort at this moment in time apart from college allowance I do not have funds at this moment (£50) which is needed to repair the phone screen. Therefore I have handed the project over to a good friend of mine who has continued development of it although the development is slow as he has many things on his plate at this moment in time.
I would say give it another 1-2 weeks and there should be a updated thread of his with information about the Launcher. ALSO I know hes a very talented developer therefore I think he will most likely port it to all android phones.
Thanks

It's been almost 3 weeks, no news?

I no longer own the Xperia Play so therefore I do not have any content left to associate with the community.
However like I said I give the source to a friend of mine and if he decides he wants to continue development then he has all rights to =]

fma965 I will only release the source code to certain people who I know can make this go somewhere, such as Nick. If he wants the source he can have it.

Hi Nick, DeanBoro, just wondering how this was going or if it still is...? Not asking for ETA, just curious if it is still being developed on........ so we as a community know its not abandoned, and if it let us know. Thank you both of you for your efforts and look forward to hopefully some good news.

I told you guys this project would end up being vaporware. That became obvious after we were told it was almost ready for release and then nothing happened.

Yep same new it wasn't coming because they made up released dates about 5 times and it was apparently so close to being finished but was never released so it was probably bull **** lol.

These are the type of unhelpful comments that put developers off
Everybody on these forums has a life
Projects are started some go to completion and some dont
Promises are made some are kept and some aren't
I am sure that always with the best of intentions
Everything is provided for you free of charge be grateful if you get it, be understanding if you don't.
I f you really want it go and learn and do it yourself, the same way the developers did. and then you can share it with us.
Or maybe you won't finish your project and then I can say that you lie and are full of s**t and we will see how you feel about it.

These are the type of unhelpful comments that put developers off
Everybody on these forums has a life
Projects are started some go to completion and some dont
Promises are made some are kept and some aren't
I am sure that always with the best of intentions
Everything is provided for you free of charge be grateful if you get it, be understanding if you don't.
I f you really want it go and learn and do it yourself, the same way the developers did. and then you can share it with us.
Or maybe you won't finish your project and then I can say that you lie and are full of s**t and we will see how you feel about it.

Agreed.. could not have said it better. With attitudes like that its a wonder devs make anything at all. When I enquired to DeanBoro some time ago about this he replied to my email and said that I was the only one he replied to because it was a sincere enquiery, his mesage box was full of ungrateful jerks chewing him out for not having released this ICX Game Launcher. Also DeanBoro does NOT have a Xperia PLAY anymore as his broke and he has no means of getting a replacement jsut yet so PEOPLE STOP B!TCHING, he did say several times that he had turned the project over to another trusted developer that is on the ICX team but that due to time and other responsibilities whether or not it gets released is out of his hands..............nuff said....
SO BE PATIENT............ I will continue every now and then enquire on this thread in hopes of some news but I am not going to write up a$$hole remarks, if people want to be like that why dont YOU work on it, then when people realize that its a difficult time consuming task and its not released others can harp on you about it....PATIENCE goes a LLLLLOOOOONNNNNNGGGGG WWWWAAAAAYYYYY, and you'll live longer......

Actually, you make a good point. However, I didn't say anything bad about the devs. I only said the app was vaporware - meaning that, while the devs may have had good intentions, the app was never released. After several promised release dates came and went, it became pretty obvious this was a tougher nut to crack than first imagined. Then the main dev ran into hardware issues. Then there were NO ETAs and no news coming out for weeks. Thus it became obvious the project had been shelved. So... Vaporware.
No disrespect intended to the devs. Heck, I'd rather have them working on ROMs any day.

fma965 I will only release the source code to certain people who I know can make this go somewhere, such as Nick. If he wants the source he can have it.

i'm a 3rd year computer science student. Any chance I could have the source code? I might not be able to make much happen with it, but I might be able to finish it off.
Thanks DeanBoro, appreciate all your work here!

where the DEVS at!!

where is Development on this phone !!!!!!!!! been like 2 or 3 months and no real Rom yet all this stock bs wheres the goods like Cyanogen or Miui even JKAYS stuff
If it wasnt for the LTE i would have got rid of the phone already for the lack of development.
hope to see some thing soon...

Always have positive attitude towards devs and their work. Or start backing your self.
Cm7 is buggy and we don't have full source therefore Miui is dead!!!! Once we get ICS we will cm9 and MIUI!

for sure, thanks for the info!!
and i did hit the thanks button....lol

There are; pleanty of great . Roms that are very far from stock. For instance. Red sonja. My personel favorite. Os lightyears from stock. Very fast. No problems at all. I strongly suggezt you do a nandroid of your current setup, and flash it imidately.

thanks but ive tried all of them red sonia to.... sean is a beast i like his stuff.. hes the only true DEV from what i see... but kudos to all that are doing a little something.. Cheers!!

There is a thread in the dev section about "compiled ICS msm8660". Best I can tell, it is full of a bunch of tallented people that are compiling code line by line and debugging to get an ASOP ICS base for this phone. If those people are not defined as "Devs" I don't think the word should exist. Plus, several great ROMs to chose from in the DEV section. Personally, I'd like to see more done with the "stock" ROM, but there are limitations as to what can be done to an Odexed ROM. It should be interesting to see what happens when Samsung leaks true codes for this phone.

Dude, why don't you do a little something then? Its called contribute. Have some respect for the devs here. They are supporting MANY devices in MANY aspects besides just ROMs. They also have families, friends, and full-time jobs. I have great respect for the devs here and I appreciate all they're work, my device supported or not. I didn't see what I liked so I modded a stock ROM the way I wanted. I didn't sit here and ridicule. I've researched, I've read, researched and read some more. I learned. I'm also doing my best to help others. So now is the tome you shut up or nut up bro. Have some respect for our ass busting devs. Not to mention pro bono. ****. Sorry devs and mods, I appreciate your work and wish I knew or could even do half of what you can. I am loyal. I am supportive. I apologize some people are selfish, irresponsible, and ignorant. Dev on and open source forever!

Wow. First this kind of post is usually not tollerated. And im actually suprised you didnt start a major flame war. Second you very obviously do not read, or have any clue what you are talking about. Johnsondr80 and xborder are deffinately true developers. Its obvious you have not taken any time to read anything your lack of knowledge has lead you to create this thread as well as disrespect all the developers. For future refrence think before you post a thread, and do some reading/research.

Hey I'm a noob technically... lol I agree. Do you're reading and you're research. But I also will admit that the ROMs I've seen aren't my exact flavor. HOWEVER!!! I will still say the ROMs are great work. The devs behind them are awesome. I in no way will ridicule the devs or theyre work. I compiled something I wanted instead. I learned how. By god I almost lost all my hair but I succeeded. And no I probably won't post it or any rom. Not until I get a lot more experience. So devs and mods I appreciate your hard work. I appreciate even more the info you all have left in various threads for us to learn from so we can CONTRIBUTE ourselves instead of flaming others for our own irresponsible ignorant a$$3$. Dev on boys and open source forever

go away. if you dont like the speed of development you can man up and do something about it or you can F off.

Our phone has much better dev support than most other phones. You should be happy with it.
