"Captivate tommorrow, Vibrant and Epic 4G are under request "
sounds good to me!
YUP! I'm going camping for the next 4 days... now I have something to look forward to when I get home and need my tech fix! Cognition 5???
I hope it's for Rogers and not AT&T!
Well they did specifically state on their website its for the I897 aka the AT&T Captivate.

it was my impression that only the AT&T one would have a audience chip driver
so.... does this mean there will be a AT&T update for the captivate?

We really don't need an AT&T update if the source is 2.3.3 for the i897.
This will be far better than a tainted product.

yeah it's been a rumor for awhile now that sprint & tmobile may merge.
Just went to the local store and was going to by a g2x for my wife out of stock while I was there, guess who a LG REP I probed her for questions did not answer me why no longer on sale, could not tell me but she did assured me that LG will. Be pushing an update VERY SOON.. what ever that means
P.s. she was not as hot as the LG girl

Do you think there will be 2 updates: one to fix the current issues and the other Gingerbread, or 1 update that combines the two? I hope it's both. Right now my phone is on it's way here. I will test to see if I have the same problems as others have.

Update is any day now...they pulled the remaining stock because of two reasons...
1. QC issues with the first few batches
2. The update will need to be applied OTA so it proly makes more sense to do that in house then sell the phones....
these are my OPINIONS, btw...I know I come across as like I know something, but I'm actually an idiot...do not listen to me

I hear you. I want to keep the G2x. I hate HTC Sense. I don't want the Sensation or any other phone or I would of waited. They need to send out a major update ASAP to fix all the software issues. As far as screen bleed. Replacement with a new batch if LG fixes ?

Weirdly enough my backlight bleed resolved itself. It was pretty bad now its not there at all. I agree it needs to be fixed and I think they're just processing the boatload of returns they got on the device.
And the Sensation is a rather large downgrade from the G2x... The Snapdragon's graphics capability is less than half what the G2x pulls stock, let alone when overclocked. I'd leave T-Mobile if they tried to force a Sensation down my throat.
Me too lol I would not take a sensation at ALL!

Oh, I don't want the Sensation either. If I did, I would have already returned the G2X and used my Vibrant until then. I am sticking to what I said before and that is, I feel that the G2X is the better device that will hold me over until Tmo gets there SGSII variant. I have wanted that phone since I saw it.
I made my comment because I don't think T-Mobile would ever take our devices back, give us a different phone and discontinue the G2X completely. Thats a serious loss of revenue. No company in there right mind would do that. The most T-mobile will do is replace our phones with working ones from a new batch.
They can have my g2x.... when they pry it from my cold dead fingers. I ain't gonna update ****. My phone works perfectly. Even though I was a bit disapoonted with the can boasting 8mp and have suck ass features this phone rocks. I hope those who do have issues get some justice though.
"If Satan lived in heaven he'd be me.... "
Would anyone be able to link the post regarding the g2x being pulled? I'm just getting into the android world and the g2x is my first android device and I love it. I can't even find a example of the screen bleed everyone is talking about.
Guess I don't have the issue since I love my screen, but the constant radio bounce is annoying, so is the phone turning off in the middle of the night and not waking me when it's time to go to work. But that had only happen once.

They're too busy wondering how they're going to spin the Marketing on 3G being 4G once all the other carriers move from 4G to 5G in 2014 when AT&T still is finishing rolling out 3G, haha
When can any carrier be bothered with big OTA updates like gingerbread? They dont care. They figure we bought the phone already so they have their money, why should they spend money giving us what we deserve?

Update: this is for our device! They removed the 4G.
HSPA enabled I guess
They might enable HSPA.
Pantech and LG didn't get 4G moniker so copy-paste mistake is out.
Looks like they have changed the press release - Captivate no longer has 4G listed against it.
Also - I don't see anything that calls out which revision of Gingerbread will come, last weekend's leak on samfirmware for the Epic was for 2.3.4, so perhaps Samsung has advanced the ball since KF1.
So really, this means we will see GB drop in 1Q 2012, right?

Post-paid means they send a bill to you at the end of the month. It's normal phone service. They use the term Post-Paid to differentiate from Pre-Paid customers.

Not sure this is good news
After trying both AT&T and Rogers' Froyo versions for Captivate, and being disappointed; I would say look towards CyanogenMod 7.1 for an update to this phone rather than any official Gingerbread.
You don't get it, once the official version drops (this means having sources) then the devs here can do their magic.

After two rather under-performing stock Captivate 2.2 ROMs, I'm not sure I'll be going back to the stock updates without a compelling reason. The performance of CyanogenMod has convinced my to stick with it.
So far after testing almost every feature on the phone I can, it seems that CM has everything the stock ROM did and the GPS works, a first for my phone. I really do hope that Samsung has made some really good progress on this version though.
So I asked att on fb if infuse will still get 2.3. They told me they are very excited for the GB update for the infuse but don't have a time frame for it. Hey there's still hope. Lol.

I am one who appreciates the thread and talk of the Infuse GB update. I had expected the GB update in Aug. like all of the other 2011 phones received. I returned my Infuse for refund due to the GB update not coming through. And I loved my Infuse. It was buggy as hell, but was a superior phone in every other way...especially music playing. As soon as the update happens...if it happens...I might just get another Infuse.
I think the Infuse will turn out to be the better phone between it and the SGS2. The screen is larger, the battery is larger and the other specs are pretty much the same. The SGS2 has NFC. But I can live without that. I see no use in a dual core. Both phones have a FFC.
GB yeah right
When I got my captivate last year(first day of release) I waited for the froyo update for ever. It was supposed to come out in Sept. but got delayed until halloween or X-mas. I had already switched to Andromeda(prob best Cappy rom ever). I lost my cappy and got an Infuse with the insurance. So far a much better phone, but I dought that we'll get an update anytime soon. Samsung is not very good with updates and at&t well they are probabably just as bad. Actually more like Apple.
Now Asus has been great with updating the Transformer.
Anyway would love to see GB but meanwhile gotten find a rom that I like.

Ok guys let's not play this same old tune. With some research one can find that both ATT and Samsung suck at giving updates mainly when a New phone is coming out. So all one can do is sit back and wait or flash a custom Rom.

Its useless because everyone knows the infuse will get updated to GB. And no one knows when that will be. No new news has been released since it was announced; nothing has changed.
