If you click the link it says AT&T. Not Rogers. Relax dude. You spelled suggested wrong.

Research. Spell check... Before bashing someones grammar.

irony. duh.

and the 2.2 release is HERE not IMMINENT according to being able to download it.

Lots of T-Mobile references left in the document:
Modifications:
MobiTV: Renamed to T_Mobile TV

and
This upgrade has been thoroughly tested by Samsung and AT&T to be compatible with Captivate devices running previous versions of the released software. Customers who are running unsupported operating systems (e.g. those that are rooted or have not been received from T-Mobile and Samsung) should move forward at their own risk.

This is interesting though.

Let's hope because it's about time. Only thing is that ATT charges for their tethering let's hope this is not neutered in the final release. If it is cooks will now have an American base to work off of. Although the Cog 3.02 works great for accept for MMS.

I don't understand why you keep emphasizing spelling. Did I spell something wrong? Also, the 2.2 update is not here for AT&T Captivates. I guess this isn't really relevant to you as you're on Rogers.

So this is going to be I897UCKB1, according to the info sections near the bottom? I don't think I've seen a firmware beginning with K before. Iiiiinteresting. Let's see what XDA does with this if it truly is what we've been waiting for.

its not spelling. Definition
Imminent means "going to come"
ITS HERE

...sigh... then why mention a spell check in your first response? Shouldn't it be a dictionary I should be looking for? I know what the word means and I used it correctly.
The T-Mobile mentions are interesting. It shows that it was mostly a copy/paste job. I just think this page's existence is not a coincidence with the arrival of SamsungJohn

Ok guys come on now. Can we please all act like Adults. The name calling and flaming really needs to end.
As far as the update it would seem just like it was in WM. The roms are 2 builds ahead by the time ATT releases the update lol.

It would be fun to do a side-by-side comparison of Eclair, official Froyo and 2.2.1 custom builds.

[Q] will the Captivate will get an 2.2 update?

can i get the OTA if i dont use at&t's sim?
who develop and responsible for the update? is it at&t or Samsung?
and for last, will i be able to install the updated Rom by Odin?
thanks

All these questions have been asked ad nauseum on these very forums... wouldn't want to inconveniance you with a search though so...
Yes.
Don't know.
Probably, but you'll likely have to flash it yourself.
Samsung will do the development, AT&T will probably deploy.

Thanks for your reply! It is also important to me.
I can trust the AT & T?..
I want to buy the device. Maybe they do not release an update?
Eventually. If you search the threads, there is a post about Froyo for Captivate in Spain (I think) for late October.
Anyway, I want them to make sure it's ok before they push out another update that bricks phones.
Thanks. So the update will come for sure? So probably I will buy.

Yeah but it will probably come for the I9000 Galaxy S phones first. It's a wait and see.
so one last question to be sure:
the captivate will get an update to android 2.2
the update is originally made to the i9000 and being modified by at&t?
am i right?
thanks again
by the way, i did searched a lot in the forum but i didn't found and inconclusive answers
Samsung will port the 2.2 update to the Captivate, but AT&T has to approve(mangle) it before public release.
Don't mean to burst your bubbles but no. We will not get a official release.... just remember I said it.
Common if we were to get it it would be done by now.
yes
It will come
someday

True We Will Not, but You can "BUY" a Samsung Tablet with Froyo 2.2. Ask yourself how do they have 2.2 for a tablet that has yet to be released (here in the USA, but Soon) and not for the Captivate and all others that were released in July some back in May?
Hell No We WON'T EVER see Froyo on the Captivate....

T-Mo testing 2.3 in the field?

OK, since I'm new to XDA I can't post a link (kinda understandable, but actually quite lame). Check on TmoNews.com
"Update: We believe this is a market specific opportunity for employees in an as of yet undetermined region. We have been unable to confirm this as a nationwide opportunity for frontline employees. Please don’t post your number or IMEI in the comments, or I’ll prank call you myself. Seriously.
While the mystery of the T-Mobile G2x inventory continues, the much anticipated Gingerbread update is about to get some love through employee testing. According to this internal email T-Mobile frontline employees who are currently using a G2x smartphone might qualify to test Gingerbread and it’s maintenance release on their own personal device. While there have been some rumors about a G2x Gingerbread update coming out this week or the next, with no current date set for this trial it seems likely we are still looking at some time before the update rolls out to the public. Of course we’ll update as we know more!"
Funny thing is I called Tmo about a data issue (seems it was network, not phone related in retrospect). Thing is while we were talking and I was mentioning various G2x issues, she said, "Looks like there is a gingerbread update we might be able to get you." Then a minute later said, "Actually we have no information to give you at this time."
Come on, someone get this uploaded to the masses!
yea that was posted yesterday lol but nice find tho!

when its done
Well, we have to consider many things.
First and most importantly, Google just acquired Motorola's mobile phones division for $12.5 billion. That means that they are gonna be a major hardware manufacturer and the phones that they make will probably be able to handle Android better than the rest of the competition.
Also, don't forget that 2011 is the year of the rabbit. The rabbit is a swift little creature and it doesn't like to get caught.
If we compare cyanogemod to the rabbit, and then compare that to google's purchase of Moto's mobile division, then we can clearly see that there's no connection between any of these things.
So long story short, yes, we still don't know. We're all just sitting tight.
sad part is once they get cm7 they will want something else lol
I'm hoping for a MIUI released right after that

That does seem to be the way the world works these days, right? I rofl at people with a sense of entitlement.
Honestly, does it really even matter right now when CM7 will be released? Seemingly every day our wonderful developers are releasing new ROM's. Pick one, love it, and live with it. Or pick a few and love them!

Very understandable. In the time I've been with this forum, I've seen a lot of that going on and it's ridiculous. Internet browsers should pop up a notice saying "Don't forget the search feature!" when somebody opens a new tab or window lol

If you KNOW it breaks stuff don't you think you should post that as a warning in the OP? Also you stated to PM you for a password when the file is not even password protected (and you call me a "noob").
I got the rom to some experienced rom hackers, and they haven't complained
The file is to protected, mediafire requests a password. the second file isn't, thats a changelog.

Password is there now, wasn't earlier for some reason. Most Devs on this site and others also post a warning if there is a chance of bricking your device. I know you put that it was for dev's only but you should know that people love to flash cutting edge stuff and get themselves into trouble. You should have at least posted a small warning to those that decide it's worth the chance to flash this.
I write software for a living, I just wanted to avoid the "this f-ed my phone up" stuff. no other reason.

That's great. But don't imply that you are the only one who did and that you presume to know what I'm running or where I get my **** from. There was alot of people posting that around that time. And phidelts probably would have had it out at the same if he hadn't rooted and deodexed it for us.

Official ICS is coming!

Check it out!

Korean LG says ICS is in testing phase, that's awesome news for us!
Nice, thanks for posting
Finally (maybe) no more limping ICS builds here.
Ya, let's hope one of the devs are still around when it's released =P
This sounds too good to be true... Especially because I can't read Korean...
LG is having a laugh at their customers' expense. I've never seen a company SO inept at just giving a fscking "YES" or "NO" answer about a product.
Oh please oh please don't lie to us or we will just continue to beg you more!! write letters, social media, and petition. I meed a break from all this buddy

I posted this in another thread but our good friend Paul O'Brien's sources say it's "imminent" for the 2X
The will-it-wont-it saga over the Ice Cream Sandwich updates for LG devices has been rolling on for months, but now, thankfully, we've had word from our LG insider on what's REALLY happening!
The news is good. Ice Cream Sandwich updates are nearing completion and will be released imminently for the Optimus 2X, Optimus 3D and Optimus Black! Exact dates are still not forthcoming, but we'll keep you posted with more news as we get it.
I'm really happy for LG users that this is going to happen, the support so far has been pretty shocking and LG really could do with turning it around.

Well here's hoping the LG Insider is right. If he is that means fully supported ICS for the T-Mo G2X once the devs get their hands on it. Not that I am complaining at all about HFP but it would be nice to run a fully supported ICS on the G2X.
Seems I heard this a few times before. I'll believe it when I see... Wait. I got rid of my G2x.
But just for arguments sake that this is true. They are in a testing phase. Which means the earliest this would be release to T-Mobile is what, Jan-Feb. and then they have to test it. So what, the 2 year anniversary of the device? I got my G2x on pre-order. It's been dead. Sorry, but I can't see this being offered as an official update.
No place in the article does it mention an "official update" coming. Seems the articles writer is jumping the gun in this one.
It won't ever be official for TMobile..suppose to be just for Korean o2x correct? But that's when devs can try and port it for those of us remaining hopeless souls
