Finally FROYO, Gingerbread When??? - Captivate General

ohk...so finally WE do get FROYO, after waiting for countless hours, so many rumors and after sooo many months...yes we got it....but aren't we the last ones from the galaxy s series to get it?? also, if it weren't for the DEVS here at XDA, am sure captivate wouldve surely lost its charm...
(btw --- thanks to the Awesome Devs out here...hats off to you guys)
but is expecting for Gingerbread, "too much to ask for" from AT&T/Samsung?
(how about answering that SAmsungJohn)

I doubt we see gingerbread.

This is seriously the 5th thread on this topic in the past week. But you'll see cm7 before official gingerbread is released if it ever is. The captivate is no longer flagship.

Facinate has not gotton froyo yet.
people are saying that the gt-i9000 will get froyo in march april 2011 (Yea right).
Either way if all the devs start work on cm7 we will have ginger

To answer the OP.. We get Gingerbread tomorrow...

aha am sorry if this thread's a re-post!!
i just wanted to thank the DEVs cause of them we got froyo much earlier and with the really cool awesome ROM's and the fixes and the kernels....really awesome job done there!!!
arent the CM mods targeted towards the galaxy s...we might just end up with reoriented unstable versions of it....but am sure the DEVs will surely work it out!!!
hope to see a CM stable version out soon!!! i wish i could contribute to it!!

Will the captivate ever get gingerbread? Yes!
Will it be soon? No!

Well, the Nexus S is getting it within the next few weeks according to AT&T's Facebook page. So figure it was 9 months from the time the Nexus S got froyo until we got it. Going with that example, we'll get it in November hopefully, just in time to eat some fresh gingerbread cookies while we download it!

Fingers Crossed!!!( for 9 months )

U.S. CellularWe're working with Samsung, HTC and LG to provide Froyo (Android 2.2) upgrades for all of our Android-powered phones. The Acclaim upgrade will be available by the end of next week, and customers with the Desire will be able to upgrade their device by the end of this month. The Apex and Mesmerize will be ready for upgrades around March. Download details coming next week. Thanks for your patience.about an hour ago.

Honestly I'm hoping that we have the 2.3 ASOP rom before then. Let's cross our fingers.
yay!

Damn US Cellular, seriously? March? Wtf
Except how great will it be if the AOSP community can get the 2.3 GUI running on the Galaxy S devices before USCC even pushes 2.2! That'll be a slap in the face in it's own regard..
Once that happens it won't matter because we'll be able to port any existing ROMs and CyanogenMod will follow soon after.

About the best option available right now! (=
so how long till we get a leaked version so we can flash it?
Pretty ridiculous. They'd update the Acclaim and the Desire in the coming week/weeks...and leave the Mesmerize for March... I'm skipping any OTA's from USCC at this point. I'd rather wait for xda community than USCC.
http://www.facebook.com/USCellular/posts/173189566049534 - the facebook page with the info (with a lot of mad ppl)
It's easy to hate USCC but you have to remember thay they've, untill recently with their new belief project, really been primarily a business company. It didn't matter to them that they had older phones or whatever as long as they could make sure that the services they were providing were reliable on a business level. Still annoying though d= but I think they're getting better.. at least we're getting the update..
am I the only one not really bothered by the release date? I got the PnP running with voodoo and it's working pretty well for me. I cant imagine it could get that much faster. 2.2 is supposed to be pretty fast but I'm not at all disappointed with the performance right now.

ATT Official Captivate Froyo Released

Supposedly Froyo was released for a few short hours...
http://www.engadget.com/2011/02/16/samsung-captivate-on-atandt-gets-android-2-2-all-that-froyo-hasn/
Did anybody get the download before they pulled it?
there are already many more threads about this than there needs to be. froyo was never officially released.
Sent from a phone, playing a phone, disguised as another phone.
My fail... I can't find the "delete thread" option anywhere.
Its ok. The information seems to be true.
I don't recall seeing this info.
I think an important question to consider is just what exactly does an official AT&T release of Froyo do that the devs here have not accomplished already? Even if the release is official, it's not like it would be a great idea for those with good custom ROMs to step backwards. IMHO, the jump backwards to an official Froyo release laden with bloatware just isn't worth the time and effort.
Better question is why this thread is still alive in the Dev section.

There was no file download associated with this - it was just instructions on how to download it through Kies. The page mentioned that you could get the file but there was never a link to it. The original timestamp on it was 11-2-2011 (Feb 11, 2011 for us US people).

Yup, actual source code from our devices can improve all the custom ROMs in here.
Honestly, I doubt an official Froyo release can beat many of the roms here. So, while it would be an awesome step in the sense that we AT&T Captivate owners finally get our own version of Froyo, it'll still take some work by devs to get that up to par with the custom roms.

Yes. And it was a page that had been up for quite a while that was actually just a cut & paste for the Vibrant instructions.
Engadget dun goofed. They came across the meaningless page and foolishly jumped to the wrong conclusion without checking their facts.
Bad news is that if there ever is an update, it might have to be done with Kies.
Still waiting Samsung...
ha i laughed when i saw this thread, people will be on honeycomb before we even get froyo!
Waited and Waited
I waited to long. I just flashed Cognition 3.4. I thought I was gonna wait til it came out but after this post I finally gave up. I'll flash back to stock when it comes out. When ever that is!
Amen to honeycomb! And forget the "official" update. Thanks to xda and some world class developers this is like many have said nothing more than something to laugh at. Keep up the awesome work. I sure look forward to the future of xda and the devs!
Sent from my captivate on a rock in the middle of the ocean!
I have been lurking this site for a few weeks now, following all the chatter about whether or not AT&T is going to deliver Froyo to the Captivate. I am a Captivate owner and just an hour ago I decided to forget about getting a stock Froyo build. So, I loaded my first ROM... Andromeda 2.2. That ROM is excellent and beats out Eclair 2.1 hands down. I don't think I will be turning back to a stock ROM now.
So long to waiting on AT&T and Samsung to pull their heads out of their arses and deliver product. I have the goods now.
Edit: A huge thank you to XDA and the team of developers working on Andromeda. They have turned out an excellent ROM.
the true update link is in the thread i just posted.

Will this phone be as Supported as other Galaxy S Phones?

As the title states "Will this phone be as Supported as other Galaxy S Phones?" I have 5 days to make up my mind about keeping it or getting back my Vibrant. I have no compaints about this phone. It rocks as is. I just want to know if this phone will have as many Devs working on it as there are the Vibrant or does no one really care for Developing. There is still no ROMs or even a working CWR yet. Is this phone going to just get passed over? What would you do? Stay with this Phone or go back to the Vibrant? Thanks for your input
Team Whiskey has already said they are going to develop for it. They are just waiting for a working CWR then it is off to the races!

Can you tell me where that's posted please? This way I can see what they are saying. My gut is telling me to go back to my Vibrant because there are so many Great Dev's working on that phone and I feel they all won't be working on this one.
Also, I am surprised that only one person replyed to this topic. Thanks in advanced
I doubt it will be as heavily supported as the Vibrant because I doubt that there will be even half as many adopters. However I asked Team Whiskey directly on their Facebook page if they were going to support it and they said they already were developing for it and are just waiting for a working CWR to roll the ROMs out. I believe their frost ROM for the Vibrant is actually a port of the GS4G so they have already had some success with ROM. I also PM'd the developer of the Trigger ROM for the Vibrant and he said he is all set to port his ROM over, he is just waiting to get his hands on GS4G to do some testing. So I am sure there will be ROMs but they probably won't come as fast and furious as they did for the Vibrant. The good news is the 2 phones are so similar that I imagine it will be easy for developers to port existing Vibrant ROMs and modifications over to the GS4G. Hope that helps!
Thanks for the info. Im going back to t-mobile in the morning and getting my Vibrant back. The only thing I am giving up realy is the 4g cause I already have a ffc for the Vibrant. I am a die hard Bionix fan and it is killing me not knowing if they will even release it for this phone. I know Frost will, but its not the same. Its been two weeks and no word as to when CWR will hit. No one is even posting mods. I just think this phone is going to be past over. Sad cause this phone is great! but if I know my luck, as soon as I leave t-mobile with my Vibrant and get home, there will be all kind of roms and suport.

Has Development slowed down!

Is it me or has development slow down a bit! It seems it started out strong and lately we haven't seen much aside from Faux and CM updating their ASOP roms.
I mean we don't really have any themers either! I know if I could I would make some!
Coming from the Vibrant there was a lot of themes and dev going on!
Now I know it's been less than two months, but the way it started out I thought we would have more going on!
I guess maybe everyone is waiting on the GB update when ever we get it!
...
we waiting 2.3
gonna be here on 06/16/11
I hope GB gets here on 6/16 that would be the best B-day present I could get lol
I have a replacement unit coming the 22nd, I hope it comes with 2.3 already in it!
...
There are lots of themes. CM7 uses T-Mobile themes and they are downloadable in the market.
No reason to mod stock unless you install the cm theme support.
LG G2x CM7 2.3.4
couple things.
waiting for the gingerbread source from lg to insure everything needed will work. and dont want to release a rom at this point where i cant tell if reboots , wifi, 4g(whre it shuts down than takes a while to start again), as well as gps.
when these features are working on the phone as should than ill start the rom, but no care to spend days trying to figure out why something doesnt work when its the darn baseband that i cant mess with.
themes. the theming engine has taken over unfortunately. it does theme and is a lot easier for the themers(after they learn it) since 1 theme works on all roms. but its just not like the old days where every app was themed and such. some have taken time to write scripts and such so they can make a better more inclusive theme with it , but most of the themes for it are color changes and icons not full themes with every app themed as we were use to . I know several of the themes that are on my rom for the droid would never be able to be as complete through the theming engine. but it does ok just different. and does enable many more themes available to all roms. and its not like a this or that themes can still be made the old way. but with the old way you need to update the theme with every new build(framework) of the rom so since these roms are in constant change at this point i dont think many are spending time theming it. especially froyo.
Honestly I can't speak for everyone but I have to many projects going on and I don't want to release buggy roms to you guys. I have not stopped working but I would love to see 2.3 drop as it would be (hopefully) more stable in general as they had time to get the bugs out.
Look at it like this the more time we have to spend working on battery drivers the less time we have making good roms. LG did not tell even close to the truth as this was supposed to be a true google experience (MY ASS IT IS) so we already had to spend countless hours removing BS they left it from the O2X.
Anyways look for more stuff soon I am sure as currenlty I am working on my rom again and I know of other hidden stuff getting done. (sorry can't say what all it is yet)
Later.

i was gonna do a quick port of my rom for my own use but when i looked at the source code for g2x froyo-- it appears al they did was remove the instruction sets for the overlay of the o2x all that crud is in the framework and elsewhere and just seemed like to much hassle, so waiting for the gb and hopfully a more stable driverset and baseband.
or keep the life i actaully have now that was non existant for the 9 months i developed for the droid 1
maybe ill just leave it up to you

Personally I say the more the merrier as I really do care about the end users. I hope to see more people jump in even if it is only a rom modded by adding removing a few things as everyone has to start somewhere.
Anyone can use my rom as a base all I ask is some credit or atleast send me a pm.
And I will always try to answer any questions as long as I got the time

more options are good.
my rom was called sourcery so it kinda had to be from source
i am not with the co0developer of that anymore so id have to comeup with another cool name. but still rather do from source than others base , but might use lg gb as a base if they release it.(hopefully without all the o2x crud) or let us make use of it 1 or the other.
but yeah all the initial launch build was is a o2x froyo themed rom.
have you played around with the animated pull down stuff. looks kinda cool and on the g2x it shouldnt hurt performance much. kinda something new.
I would love to see another rom made from source. I have been working on a 2.2 from source but not even close to being release ready as buggier then crap
Anyways I am sure the crack flashers would love another rom to try out
2.2.2

Over all its ok. i released the 2.2.2 rom 3 days after the source was released. did a serious rebuild from scratch since i was about ready to release the 2.2.1
i remember i had a couple bugs i had to figure out that werent on 2.2.1 but i forget what they were .

@tweezit I for one appreciate all the work you guys put into supporting this phone. I know it takes a lot of time and hard work. If seems some of us are impatient it's only because we are. Seriously, you are making a great device better and I thank you for it.
@Eagle1967 Just checked your Rom out and I would love to see a port...really slick stuff there...great app inclusions and love the blue/black theme.
I'm wading into this myself...been playing around with it but any kind of release is at least a couple month away...if ever. Really makes me appreciate what you guys do.
thanks

when i started i knew nothing. i started in august last year was late september before i actaully got my first build that completed and installed and ran and first release was on christmas so took a long time but i started with no knowlege of any of it. still not always sure what i do to make it work it just does
yeah it took 9 months of my life part of the reason i stopped(part ).. but it was fun and made me feel like i accomplished something. i cant believe how popular the rom still is since i havent really done anything with it since febuary but it was the first custom rom with froyo 2.2.2 and actually was for quite a while until some gave up on gingerbread and went back i think there is still only 1 other 2.2.2 rom for the droid though.
if you have any questions feel free to pm me. ill help you out if i can.

Coming Soon! Check it out......GB+Netflix!

Native Gingerbread should be coming soon seeing as the Thunderbolt will be receiving it before the end of June. Hopefully we can get that so we can see alot more custom ROM builds being made.

Ya I heard the TB was getting it June 30th so I would assume roughly a month later for the Charge but I also heard that they were going to just skip giving the Charge GB and go straight to ICS, that's one thing I hate about these cell phone companies, they never give us definite release dates on anything, it's always leak this, rumor that...
Where'd you hear that the Charge would be getting ICS straight from Froyo? It'd be great to get it soon, but I doubt this will be the first phone to get it by any means, and I'm sure they'll have Gingerbread ready before ICS comes out.
Anyway, this is awesome. I knew Samsung was working on Gingerbread, and its already out for the other SGS phones, so it can't be that long. But I'm wondering if TBH got it on there themselves, or if they were able to procure a pre-release build leak. I'm thinking the latter because of the apparently stock ROM otherwise, but then again maybe that was the most stable way to do it.
Its from P3Droid and Team Black Hat, so for those saying its fake, its not. This is great though, apparently that thread worked and they're showing some real interest in this device. With Gingerbread right around the corner, it'd be great to have CM7 to look forward to! Can't wait to see this get out in some build we can use...

Nononono I was reading somewhere, I think it was an Android Forum, they were talking about the Charge not getting Gingerbread and just going Froyo > Icecream, I'm not saying it was going to get it first I meant it wouldn't be getting Gingerbread, it's not confirmed information at all but Gingerbread isn't confirmed either so that's why I'm a bit skeptical
I can't wait to get Netflix to work.
Anyone get Netflix to work on 2.2.1 EE4?
I have read several forums where people have been told by Verizon and/or Samsung reps. that they are not working on gb for the Charge and that they plan to just skip to ICS...although this info is probably coming from some tech support guy in India who can hardly speak English so who knows. I'm just happy to see that SOMEONE is working on getting this thing up-to-date, even if it isn't the corporations that should have released it with 2.3 in the first place...
Well we have a gb leak so they must have been working on it.

Wrong it is in fact and actual GB build for the Charge. I did not see that actual device in the video but I have in fact seen the file and watched it be flashed to a Charge. Its coming just a matter of when the release hits. Word I've gotten is hopefully around Aug time frame.

Completely inaccurate. ICS is not even going to be ready for til 4th Qtr to start with. And as for GB it will for sure be coming to the Charge and in the not to distant future like I just stated.
Not sure why anyone would think that the release of Gingerbread on the Charge will somehow fall into some kind of lockstep timing schedule (30 days after) with the Thunderbolt, when the Thunderbolt is an HTC device and the Charge is Samsung. Two different companies, two different set of internal developers, two different business models etc, etc.
We might get GB next week, or next year, or never, I don't know, but I do know that the release of GB on the TB has nothing to do with the release of GB on the Charge.
Sad that GB is over a year old now, and we're still getting Froyo on the "top of the line" devices and still stressing over when, if ever, we'll get it on three month old devices.
I doubt that any vendors besides the one creating the next Nexus phone has ics. It's nearly half a year away from announcement. Anyways, P3Droid is completely legit. He released gingerbread for the fascinate last week. He ran a video much like that one and people said that he was running froyo and being skeptical. I was running that gb build on my fascinate until I broke it and purchased a charge. If he says he has it, he has it. He apparently has a leaker and I thank God that he does.

I was running that gb build on my fascinate until I broke it and purchased a charge. If he says he has it, he has it. He apparently has a leaker and I thank God that he does.

Glad to see the Fascinate finally got a real GB. Took Sammy many many months to even give us Froyo which we had a working copy of in January.
I am wondering when we will get a leaked version of this?

Sad that GB is over a year old now, and we're still getting Froyo on the "top of the line" devices and still stressing over when, if ever, we'll get it on three month old devices.

You mean 6-8 months old, nowhere near "over a year" old yet. It came out around November-December of 2010, or 6-7 months ago. No need to over exagerate.

Explain. IRC?
The Charge had a GB leak. That is how TBH got a hold of it. I'm thinking other Devs could possibly get a hold of this leak if you know where to look....
But anyway, When I had my DX, TBH was the first to publish a ROM with the leaked GB kernel. They know what they are doing for sure.
I recommend following P3Droid on Twitter. He ususally drops info on a daily basis that I find very interesting. He mentioned weeks ago running netflix on the Charge via Twitter.
