Flash Player for Captivate

Okay so I know I'm a newbie but... Can anyone tell me how to get Flash on my At&t Captivate? I know 2.2 has been released and but apparently I need a step by step guide even though I've been doing this for a long time (maybe I'm suffering from altzhiemers).

Search the app market for "flash 10.1". Install.

You need to have android 2.2 for Captivate. Then search "Flash Player" on the Android Market. I don't recall if the app is pre-installed on the 2.2 Captivate.
Good luck. Click on that link... I wrote up that guide... it's fairly easy to follow. Just remember to take it step by step and follow each one exactly. Download mode, have odin open, then plug in, and flash away!

Flash player requires Android 2.2 which hasn't been released for Captivate yet.

thats because you are not as LEET as the ones that all post there are too many bugs to run it....
i have been running FroYo since about 3 hours after designgears dropped the leak on us....there have been a few quarks that we have had to work out, but any BUG that some people think thats there, is easily remedied with a little looking around on the forums.
you know, its the cool thing to be against the FroYo movement....

lol my wife is running froyo with no issiues

Same here..
Also, OP, I've found the absolute easiest way to get FroYo/root/lagfix-all in one is with Cognitions Odin thing. It flashes the latest version of Cognition and take only about five minutes. Extremely simple. Almost as easy as the Odin3 one-click stock recovery thing. And obviously with Android 2.2, you can use install flash from the market and use it to your heart's content

JI6 leaked Foryo bugs are well doucmented in a dedicated thread. You probably rarely use your phone if you don't encounter any bugs.
Yes, I'm aware there are ways to work around some bugs (like replace the email client with the older email client) but that doesn't mean the ROM has no bugs. And my phone still need reboot at least twice a week to make it funtion correctly. Otherwise, the phone just slows and lags and some menus just show random stuff.
Even Samsung has to pull its *official* JP6/JPM release in Europe to fix the various issues.

so why not use a rom based on it that a kind dev has already tweaked for us?
not use my phone much??? LMFAO!
its my work phone (email and cell), personal phone (email and cell), gps (yes mine works), handheld game device, and toy.....
yeah, thats not using it at all....
most of the roms out there based on the leaked froyos are very stable and good enough for daily use.

You lost me there, bro. What the buggy Froyo leak from AT&T has anything to do with custom ROMs? I'm not anti-Froyo. Just stating the fact that current leaked beta ROM from Samsung is very buggy.
I said the leak Froyo ROM is buggy. And you said it is not because you're running a custom ROM ?? WTF? It's like saying I'm running a Nexus One with Froyo w/o problem hence there should never be buggy Froyo out there for any phone.

LOL....and i said that the 'bugs' can easily be remedied by looking around on the forums. the custom rom came into play because all the tweaks have already been done for you and do not require you to apply anything special to rid the 'bugs'.
honestly, the bugs that are being claimed are very minute, and dont warrant a blanket statement like, 'Stay away from Froyo for our phones!!!111 its evil!!!111'
reading comprehension is a skill.

That's correct. Lots of bugs, but I still won't flash back to 2.1. Just waiting for a full release of the new Cognition.

Ok guys questions answered. We are not gonna get into the Custom vs stock rom debate again, there are plenty of threads for that
I deem this thread closed

Pointless upgrading to froyo ?

So who be upgrading to froyo now that its available ?

Pointless thread.

The only think that The update is good for is the source code.

just updated. now ill wait for some ROMs to finally start flashing.

Its been available, only people who will upgrade to it are on stock anyways.

How is it ? I'm running. Firefly 2.2 suckerpunch kernel # 51 and a theme by darky u think its worth for me to flash back to stock and upgrade

If you ask me, not a chance.

basically upgrade if you're bored. its for folks who dont want to flash custom roms more or less. all the customized stuff the devs on here offer is way better than official 2.2
all in all not worth it. still havent found a lagfix yet but have figured out how to root/install cwm
now i wait for the first dev to create a rom i can test

I'm only curious if gps is actually better, but sounds like it's not. Shocking...

There's a whole thread full of posts from people who already upgraded. The title is secret, though, so you might have missed it. It has the words "Official Froyo" in it.

If you haven't tried it, how do you know if it's better or not?
You might want to see this post. Supercurio, who developed SPeedMod, has injected Voodoo Lagfix into the Rogers Froyo Kernel, it will work for AT&T Froyo. I have better speeds and performance than on any custom ROM or SpeedMod. Try it out.

Have you tried getting into LBS test mode and resetting your GPS Data?
*#*#3214789650#*#*
Then select delete GPS Data
Also, first locks on new software take longer the first time. If you do the above, it should help.

Didn't take longer when I flashed Cog or supernova.
I didn't flash KB1 but not surprised there are still issues. GPS data, servers and all that won't fix broken hardware.

Well, maybe just give it a try. It can't hurt.
I guess we're lucky in Canada, haven't seen anyone here with these GPS issues.

You guys act as if these custom roms are without bugs. I have flashed many of them and im back on stock because there is always something wrong. besides its not that hard to remove the bloatware yourself. My gps hasnt ever worked on any custom rom dont know if it will on knew one since it wont let me upgrade. problems with call logs showing incorrectly or problems with txt, bt crashes. I have no problems on stock at all, removed all att stuff and it is the way i want it, I dont even use the themes that come with em only a few i seen that i liked and had to buy seperately to make it complete.

Well put. Custom ROMs are basically skinned stock I9000/2.2 ROMs anyway, with bloatware stripped out, other functionality added, and custom kernels and modems.
The beauty of a stock ROM, rooted, with boatware removed(TiBu) and a voodoo injected kernel is better stability, functionality, and reliability. A lot of people here who use custom ROMs have never had access to a native 2.2 stock ROM, and thereby have nothing to compare it to, yet they are stating that custom ROMs are better than 2.2 stock, but how would they know? They've never tried it. Why not try it out? We already have a working 2.2 kernel with Voodoo Lagfix, and I can't say it enough: for me, better speeds, better reliability, faster performance, etc.
However, I'd like to see what happens when we can start making custom ROMs based on 2.2 rather than I9000 though. Non of this wishy washy kernel/modem compatibility etc. It will be better for everyone.

Andromeda is built on a stock 2.2 Captivate ROM. So is Cog 4.

Stock Froyo or Gingerbread ROMs?

Do any stock Froyo or Gingerbread ROMS exist for the Captivate? I see all of these aftermarket ROMS posted but I don't like all the themes or added programs they come with. I just want a stock ROM.

There is AT&T stock 2.2 and Rogers stock 2.2 depending on which Captivate you have.
2.3 has not been released for the Galaxy S. It was leaked for the i9000, but that ROM isn't working yet. The only real 2.3 ROM for the Captivate is CM7 which is not yet stable.

Yeah, I'm running CM7 right now and it's stable, but definitely still has some bugs. Feature wise, it seems packed, but some of the bugs I am experiencing are QUITE irritating for daily use.

Which is exactly why it's not a stable ROM yet, in addition to a few things under the hood.
But let's not get too off topic, the OP wants stock ROMs.

Seriously? If you want a stock ROM then just use the one available from your carrier. Cognition 4 is as close as a custom ROM can be to stock, but minus the bloatware and it has some minor performance tweaks. This place isn't in the business of creating "stock" ROMs.

For stock like feel, i'd recommend one of two roms. Andromeda 1.2 (unthemed) or Cog 4.1. Andro is based off of the Armani Captivate 2.2 and the devs did a fantastic job of making it somewhat minimal and still has all the goodies. They also added a few other nice touches. Cog is based off of official ATT 2.2 with the bloatware gone and lagfix installed. It is also very nice but didn't hold my attention the way Andro does. As was already mentioned CM7 is ok for people that know how to trouble shoot their phones and can deal with the bugs. It's NOT meant for people new to their phones and flashing.

AT&T hasn't pushed an update for the Captivate. Even if they did it would still be loaded with crapware that slow the phone down.
So, it's impossible to get a stock rom easily?

The update came from Samsung and not ATT. The easiest way to get a "stock rom" is to use keis to do the update. Yes it will come with all the bloat from ATT. If you dont want the bloat then there are ways to remove them, gone over many times in the forum which you would have found had you done a search.
As for Stock Gingerbread roms, well to be honest we will most likely not see an ATT stock gingerbread as the 2.2 update is most likely the only one we will get through official channels

The most up to date stock rom you can get is 2.2 from Samsung Kies which can be downloaded here: samsung.com/us/support/downloads/SGH-I897ZKAATT.
This also includes the usb drivers. Just connect your phone to your computer and update.

[Q] How to update to GB

Hi guys most of you might find this question silly but there are some of us newcomers who are still getting into this!
So, I rooted my phone, have ROM Manager and CWM Recovery, version 3 and my question is how we're going to update to official GB when it becomes available? Will we do it through official T-Mobile update, or will some of you guys make it available for us?
Thank you all!

Yes...
you should be about to get it either way. If you get the official update you will probably lose root... If you wait a few there will be a rooted version posted by one of the many xda members...

One more dumb question: Why is everybody so excited about the official GB update, when we have right now a few GB leaked versions with some custom ROMs (Bionix from TeamWhiskey, etc... ) available, for which as I hear, many say are excellent? Is this official one gonna be better in any significant way than these custom already out? Thanks! )

OK, I get it... So, all these unofficial GBs are sort of limited because they lack these LG stuff they're (hopefully) putting into the official one. That's why it's smart to wait a bit more.

Yes, that's the case. The leak has issues (which makes sense, it's not a finished build), and almost all Gingerbread mods are based on the leak so they have the same issues. I know CM7 is using the Gingerbread source instead and has fixed a lot of the issues, but not all of them.
The official update is not only going to be completely stable (hopefully) but will come bundled with better drivers/kernel support which will fix most of the common issues with the phone (hopefully).
I've gone through an Over The Air update to Android before, and if it's like what I experienced, you're going to get a pop-up that asks if you want to update now or later. Choose later if you want to keep root, someone here will have the official build rooted probably within the hour but definitely within the first couple of days.
In the mean time though, don't be scared of trying out one of the ROMs that are available. I swear by CM7, but I've heard wonderful things about EagleBlood and Ultimate too.

I have heard that official updating the rooted phone could actually brick it? And when a mod is nightly version, does it mean it it not completely stable? I am interested in CM7, but I could not find a stable version on their site.

i have question also since it's related to thread title. i'm running stock right now but rooted. once i update to gingerbread cm7, will i have to install all apps and settings all over? and will call log and stuff like that disappear also?

You should be able to get all of that stuff after startup my hitting the square boxes in the initial setup. Worked for me yesterday with the Eagleblood 2.3.4 ROM, when someone recommended it to me rather than Titaniumbackup which screwed up my phone a lot because I went from Froyo to GB

I don't know if it will brick or not, my OTA was not rooted. And CM7 nightlies are NOT completely stable, but they're on build 58 by now and the ROM works perfectly fine. The only issue I can see with the phone is the top bar they added to the notifications menu that has toggle-able settings like WIFI, GPS, etc sometimes doesn't show up and in the camera, it calls both cameras "back" instead of one being "front".
But if you're concerned with stability that much, use the leak or EagleBlood.

Why Bother
Why bother with this total fail of an upgrade when there are so many better custom ROM's to choose from right here on xda?
I'm on Infused v2.2.3 and really like it but considering making the move to ZEUS soon.
I just can't see any reason to make a giant leap backward with the AT&T GB upgrade. It's just too little too late. YMMV though.

Maybe Samsung decided to use Zeus?
(Actually the GB release is running really well for myself. I haven't even rebooted yet since install last week.)

Yeah who likes a 100% working phone anyway, right?
meh.

now I know why there are no sources yet. and yeah the update is important if not just for sorcery code. never mind Samsung and att having respect for the customers....
think of how much better the roms can be if we don't have to mix libs from different leaks to fix video recording or playback and workarounds for the sdcard and wifi. and if they actually have HDMI. then we could swap kernels around without considering switching vold.fstab. yeah I hope the update is fixed soon so the code can be released finally.
someone is gonna have to get the update files and decrypt them to get a stock kernel though. (to extract initramfs and the root process will require a kernel to revert to until custom kernels are made.)

If you consider hdmi 100 percent, then I guess im running a 99 percent working rom......yea.....im good with that

hey I'm using Zeus myself. but I use the kl2 kernel on it and it would be nice if you didn't need to change vold.fstab back to stock to do so. I just want source code for new kenrels that could be maintained as all the old kernels were developed by people who are no longer here.

I remembered dman said trying to run stock kernel in zeus will boot loop.
There were scripts not supported by stock kernel.
To make it run, just disable lagfix?
Just curious...

the init.d scripts wont run. that's true. but you should be able to change kernels after a reboot. its running for me. I didn't look at the scripts to see what other things I'm missing but the rom runs fine without the tweaks and lagfix.

What would the point of running zeus without the tweaks?
I'm not sure that is why I ask. Isn't kinda like running stock uckl2?

well I ran it with infuseion a few days, but I get the themes, the rom is deodexed, and when ever I deodex something it seems to run weird either slow or choppy. Zeus doesn't. I dunno what dman uses to deodex but it works better than what I have used.
