So I updated to the official 2.2 (go ahead and boo). My wife has the Aria and I did her upgrade a few hours ago, and her Aria is running 2.2.2. It weird that the Captivate only got 2.2 and not 2.2.2?
It's weird that the Captivate even got 2.2

Its not that odd, as HTC as always been one step ahead of the others, when it comes to updates. It will most likely see 2.3 as well long before we do.

It's not a "boo hoo" thread. Just wondering if anyone else was surprised. AT&T and HTC were saying it was 2.2 and never mentioned 2.2.2 so I was surprised when I upgraded her phone last night.

Well the update from 2.2.1 to 2.2.2 is a few bug fixes from what I have seen. Like an sms fix for sending out wrong sms to the wrong person, but if going from 2.2 to 2.2.2 then there are alot of extras like BT dialing, better support for exchange accounts, the SMS fix and a few other things I am sure

Thanks I have a buddy with this phone back east and wanted to see if it was worth having him give it a shot but sense he is on cyanogenmod I think Ill have him stay where he is for now.
As for your question yeah it is normal for HTC to be ahead of the rest on updates. To be honest if ATT had the Inspire when I got the Galaxy then I would have gotten it instead as I know the updates are more often and they are easier to mod. Thanks for the SS

That is the one I read about for the update.
I know it would be a fair amount of work and I don't have the moxie to do it, but it would sure be nice to have an objective pro/con list of Froyo, 2.2.2, 2.3, and a few of the top XDA Roms now available. I'm happy that I've gone to the "dark side" but I have to admit that I'm curious about the pros/cons of returning to stock versus all the other alternatives. I really wonder if 2.3 will/would be a significant advance over what we now have available. Any thoughts?
No problem.

2.3 Doesnt have that many new things, but still awesome. I know you can get it through CM7 and other roms, but an official rom will help future ports and increase stability of user created roms, possibly the stability of CM7 on mt4G.
HTC rep told me it was coming end of feb, then saw her again and she told me it was definitely coming middle of march. So while not exactly a lofty goal projecting an entire quarter of a year for a release date, I'll just acknowledge that it's probably coming. someday. definitely maybe.
Sweet! I cant wait for this update!!
It should be in June when the evo 3d comes.

Remember Folks,
Those of us who are brave enough, have had 2.3 for a while thanks to Cyanogen, etc. I will not wait for HTC, they seem to take their time. Not to mention they still haven't put out 2.2 for the MT3G Slide... Besides this will be the last update from HTC if the buyout goes through. Why support a phone that will be a paperweight in a year or so...

There i fixed it for you, and you hit the nail on the head with everything else.
The only reason an official 2.3.3 is good, is for the kernel source and the new lib files for sense and 2.3 that are native to our phone. Makes future ports that much easier.

I know, Ive been using CM7 for a while, but the official 2.3 from HTC is still big news for those who prefer the stock rom. Ill probably go back to stock once the OTA's start rolling out. Also, as stated before, native and official kernels and code will make future ports a lot more easier and stable.

Hi,
I'm not sure which section of to put this thread in, but anyways. I was at AT&T buying some screen protectors for my captivate and the salesperson told me that 2.3 is coming in a few months for the captivate. I hope this will answer some questions. Hopefully the salesperson wasn't lying. But this is good new!!! PS there is the same post in the Q&A section that I accidently posted. I meant to post in the General section.

Are you sure he said that last "for the captivate" part? I'm sure what he meant was "we'll eventually have a phone with android 2.3. It won't be the captivate, I'm just telling you now so you get your wallet ready."
My friend works for rogers up here in canada and he was saying the same thing about gingerbread. hopefully it is sometime soon within a couple of months.
Who cares where it comes from. If there's official 2.3.3 out somewhere, devs here will get their hands on it.

I don't think AT&T gives them official anything.

now the gb is out i know the devs are gonna get to work on it.
for those that updated have you notice there is no camera app?????
there is a camera app, just that it's stock rather than lg's.
no really the stock camera app is missing its not there. i did a factory reset and still is not there.. would have to use another app from the market
that's weird. it's there for me. i did a hard reset after i flashed...
ok well i was thinking about that but like i cant root after the update i didnt wanted to lose all my apps from titanium backup lol

I don't really care about the GB update. I already have that running the CM nightlies. I want a stable and working phone. One I can depend on to make calls day in and day out. One that gets the same battery life day in and day out. I want the LG drivers to make everything function properly. Mad props to the CM guys for doing what LG has failed to do so far, but now it is time for LG to deliver a REAL working, bug free update so we can experience the phone we are supposed to have.

i saw the ports and i doubt so. i followed the cm9 msm8x60 development and the bottomline is that they need a custom 3.0 kernel in order to get everything to work properly
that requires quite some work and means that someone has to port the current doubleshot kernel modifications into the cm9 3.0 kernel. According to Kornyone we're talking about ~5000 lines of code. if nobody does that we will never have a fully functional CM9.

News say that we will get a small maintenance update March 19Th.
But I mean, personally, I think the phone is fine as it is.
The only think they could improve is add the ability to delete the bloatware like AT&T does.
I believe it is Sprint that allows you to delete bloatware. at&t until reciently had their stuff so locked down you couldn't even install Amazon app store.
But yeah I agree with you the phone to me is fine as is except the bloatware.

Actually, they just recently unlocked that feature. Cell phone companies just need to stop bloating phones up with apps no one ever uses (like Rosie).
I don't know about AT&T not allowing unknown sources, but I know for sure that in their recent phones they do allow you to delete bloatware.
