Samsung official FROYO firmware release - Captivate General

Official samsung firmware is out!!!
No more having to hackup custom froyo ROM's from the I9000.
I'm downloading Keys mini to get my hands on the firmware. Is anyone using this as a base for a custom ROM?
http://ars.samsung.com/customer/usa...ID=2&PROD_SUB_ID=557&PROD_ID=558&AT_ID=368733

Where have you been? First, so many posts about "official" 2.2. Second its one two ROM's so far, Cognition 4 and Torch 1.0. Lastly. Get with the pace and read!

Ugh,i thought this was the source...

Unbelievable! Doesn't anyone bother to even look at the thread titles before posting? Zelendel, do that thing that you do so well.

I am aware of Cognition 4 and Torch but I did not see them mention that they are using the latest firmware as base.
Also, how did they build a ROM on the new firmware 2 days ago (when cognition 4 came out) when the firmware was only released today? I never even saw a leak for the newest samsung firmware.

I wish there is a 'No Thank You' button that decrement the Thank You points to negative.

Especially since I released the "Official" upgrade on the 17th. I just put it in a more convenient package for everyone and let them have it early. Plus made it faster to download. Convenience isn't all it's cracked up to be, though...

Question about the official upgrade
Forgive the noob question, but does anyone know if the official release will unroot your phone using the techniques and software provided by USC? I'm technically savvy but this is still somewhat new to me. I've used Odin to root my phone and upgrade to the unofficial leak. I've had a number of software crashes since. I also found out, since I didn't do proper research before jumping onto the bandwagon, after the fact, that rooting will void the warranty. I'd like to unroot it, but I just need to know if this will do it or if I need to unroot it before I upgrade. Thanks!
And within seconds, I answer my own question
Apparently, it's been reported that the official update will, indeed, unroot your phone as well. Sorry for the wasted space.

If you install the official upgrade with the Odin files it will also "unroot" your phone. I say that because it's just putting a fresh system image on your phone so of course it will be "unrooted". The better option would be to install the pre-rooted version that has the 2e recovery as well so you can install custom ROMs and such.

Gingerbread Source RELEASED for i9000

it's not Friday! anyway, there have already been two other leaks for Gingerbread besides this (though this one went out through KIES and is likely official). this isn't any use for us until sources drop.
then you can at least reorient the kernel and whatnot.
edit: should also add, no development related to this, just a gingerbread announcement therefore general.

It is because official updates usually means a stable bugfree version of gingerbread for our devices so that it can be used as a base for custom roms or if it is good enough, use as it is rooted/deodexed.

Unless you think that part in bold is sarcasm... that kind of sounds like it means it'll help CM7 development.

Well usually the source for the I9000 rom releases always comes out within a reasonable time. So heres hopin we dont have to wait that long before we can grab it and start workin on some reoriented kernels.
Has anybody or will anybody flash this on to their Captivate?
If you have what was it like? And how did it go?
for me Im just sticking with CM7 but still intrigued

How to get the latest baseband? Anyway?

Hey.
How to get the latest baseband? Anyway?
The new gingerbread came with different baseband, but none of the roms here have it yet....
so I want to know is there some way of getting it onto the gingerbread official rom zip posted here?
I have cm7 now, so I can flash nandroid froyo backup, then do the update via lg website, which will get me the gingerbread and new baseband, and then flash over the gingerbread zip which is rooted over gingerbread previously installed?
Is there an easier way?
wrong forum dude

To answer. Nope. Not yet. Wait till tomorrow. TheDude is supposed to be making a flashable zip
XDA Mobile
Once they fully test it they will release it. Can you imagine hundreds of people blindly flashing bad basebands?
Asus Transformer 3.1 pwnd
www.MiiWiiChat.com
www.SnapSiteAdmins.com
I was asking about this earlier in the q&a forum.
It doesn't seem like its a universal baseband seeing as the update is made only available for the P999DW and not the DWP, so if you have a DWP and flash the DW baseband, you could be in store for some bad times.
Running just the rom right now seems to be just fine on the DWP, for me that is, as always though, ymmv.

We all can flash the new baseband with LG own update tool. Developers are not taking care of us at all as we can flash it.
The only thing that developers are doing it preventing us from having root with it which makes no difference.

Android 2.3 Now Available :)

Android 2.3 Software Number EH17 From USCC... Its posted on their site
uscellular.com/androidupgrades
Not working for some reason.....
I have tried to update...but Kies mini is telling me I have the latest version lol
You can take it to a store tech center and have them reflash your phone with it if mini kies isn't working.
Mini kies has been a flaming hot mess more often than not with these updates, so a full reflash at the store is probably not a bad idea anyway.
Strange....Its been taken down!

both for odin.

Bottom line: Our developers and users have moved to Rootzwiki. Its still the same users and developers that were once here; same usernames and everything. Everyone's there. Just a new location (and new management).
Whats done is done; the mass exodus has occurred and it can't be changed. So lets quit talking about it. Get on the Rootzwiki boat or stay in ghost town. Your choice.

Just upgraded without kies.
No kies on my Samsung N150 Plus netbook, just installed USCC_I500_EH09_SimpleDL from the US Cellular android upgrade section. Followed instructions (except for battery life, performed this with 81%) phone rebooted, all apps intact including acircuitboard live wallpaper, root apps, contacts, calender, etc...., EXCEPT ROOT ACCESS! Super User gone baby, verified with root check app. guess I'll give GingerBreak a try this weekend, heck I may even try SuperOneClick again to see what happens. Here's a trick for you warranty voider freaker outers, if you brick it, just tell your provider you lost the phone and pay the $50 or whatever dollar insurance claim and get a new GXS.
Obviously no root access, it's a stock official rom.

Still hasn't been 100% confirmed it's ICS yet. Nobody has finished (that has posted).
And the fact T-Mobile is dropping theirs honestly would have zero effect on ours. It's all up to AT&T and their bloatware adding department. Besides, any drop at this point is very unlikely to be any different than LE2, so it's really not that exciting until opensource gets updated. At that time it will become "RELEASE THE KRAKEN!" (or at least the kernels! lol)

Jumping Jesus Christ on a pogo stick. We have enough "Hey ICS is Here!" threads in the skyrocket forum that turn out to be just another 2.3.6 rollout. Now we're going to have useless threads for other phones based on wrong information regarding official ics?
That T-Mob thread was closed by a mod and moved to the general ICS thread. We really need more of that in this forum. Ugh... smhu
Sorry all. I read some posts saying things like the update . zip contained 4.0.4 files so I thought it might be legit.
