ATT Official GB Upgrade - Captivate General

Just got a text from ATT telling me to upgrade to Android 2.3. Little late, no? ;D

Not really
i got one of those in December for fuggin froyo, that was LATE
lolz

Too bad most of us are already running 2.3.5 and higher builds. Would there be any reason to switch to official update?

I never get any msg from ATT expect to pay for extra usage...

Could you post the like that AT&T sent you?? The official froyo sucked, but I would like to see if the official GB update is more stable.

It's real. I just looked on their website and Captivate with 2.3 is listed but I haven't found out how to get it yet.

I saw the pictures in their tutorial - it is KK4 indeed
So that's why we never got any more leaks after kk4

So I upgraded my girlfriend's cappy to Froyo using CWM (or was it Odin? I can't remember) awhile back; I know it's not official because Kies said her phone was unregistered and so I couldn't do the stock version of Froyo. She's getting this same message now that GB is available; does anyone know if it'll work or break her phone if she downloads it while running an unofficial Froyo?

Unregistered devicecould be the rom you have, a borked imei number, or an improper product code.

Thanks. Would any of those break an official OTA update?

Just one of them will cause Kies mini to give you "unregistered device"

What about updates that are pushed to the phone via AT&T and Wifi?

Not sure. But if i had to guess, i would say yes, those too.
Well, non stock rom-yes
Bad imei-probably
Bad product code-maybe
Sorry i can't be more helpful

Flash back to stock and then upgrade form there if your uncertain, better safe than sorry....

I think they try not to stay too far behind rogers. we will certainly see soon though, I'm still not sure I believe it.
I had to check on it myself, I was just in a corp store tonight talking and they didn't have any specifics just that the Infuse was next (since Inspire got its upgrade). I sure would like GB...
Prob another Infuse/Inspire confusion.
In August, HTC Inspire 4G users will be notified that the update is available and can be downloaded when connected to a Wi-Fi network.

Don't think this could be the case... On August 10 (tweet date) the Inspire Update was already OTA.

Too much promotion, now they can't say no ;-)

Cool did you notice anything different as kernel or radio or android version?
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
It's been released days ago in the development section. Go check there. New radio is worth flashing.

Kernal 2.6.35.10

Build number 2.32.531.1
I see people over in the dev section in thread "[RADIO] HTC Glacier Radios" talking about flashing a leaked build with updated radio driver and expecting an official release to follow.
Is there any detailed release notes out there explaining this update? Is it just a better radio driver? anything else?

My MT4G was handed down to a friend and has been getting a system update notification beginning yesterday. I have told her not to let it go through for now, and to write down what the update notification says - if anything.
I had CM& on it, but I reverted back to stock based froyo ROM before I gave it to her - wanted everything working. It also had what was the latest radio (as of a few months back), and faux stock based kernel. and of course CWM.
With all the above, I am surprised it is trying to update - always though you had to revert to all stock (including Recovery). I do not see any benefit in letting it go through, plus from the above post, would also be afraid it might unroot the device, so would like to know that also.

YES. Find the unrooted version and flash that instead. optionally flash the radio separately.

Seems to run just fine. Honestly don't see much of a difference though.

Have decided to not update at this time.
Is there any way to stop the update notification from popping up every time the phone is booted up?
how have you rooted it man?!?!... please share the link to clear root instructions for the latest updated stock ROM if you can.... thanks!
I also received system update to 2.3.4 and downloaded it yesterday. As much as I wanna do what some may have already done (reverting back to froyo > temp/perm root > restore back to gingerbread) that's just seems alot of work. Anybody know whats the status on alternative (easy temp/perm root) for gingerbread 2.3.4? I sure do like to know if it's already in development.

What is the update for and if rooted and running nonstock rom will it matter?
Probably the wifi calling fix update..
My phone that I ordered on launch day(and just received earlier today) has software number "1.53.531.16 710RD" ... I have not received any update.
Is your software number any different after the update?
Hmm, when did you get your phone and do you happen to remember what your version was before the update? I just looked at my software version and it's 1.53.531.16 710RD and my phone has not been updated as far as I know. I just got it on Sunday.
I realised that I phrased my post wrong. Updated, I haven't received any update. Sorry for confusion.

not all the phones Tmo initially released has the software with the issues on it.. i was thinking last saturday when i got the notification of the software update it was the fix but after looking over the software version i had a different one and the one they were trying to send me was the bad one so i just ignored the update and didnt run it..
Can you still receive update after rooting or even putting a custom rom on it?

What state does your phone need to be in to get an update?
It seems most people progress in the following order. At what point do you stop getting updates?
A, Completely Stock
B, + Unlocked bootloader
C, + CWM recovery
D, + Rooted
E, + Custom rom
I know that you'll get it with (A) obviously... and that you won't get it with (E). What about (B), (C), and (D)... what affects whether you get an update or not?
Depends on how customized your ROM is; I still get updates on my kindle Fire with MoDaCo ROMs.
Sent from my Kindle Fire using Tapatalk 2 Beta-5
you will still receive ota updates on any rom until you remove the ota service. however, if you have a different recovery or have removed certain system apps the update will fail to apply.

Slightly confused here...
I rooted my S via the HTCDev site, installed CW recovery etc but did not install any ROM yet. Will I be able to get this update from TMO or do I have to unroot and go back to stock to receive it?
I think most likely that that the OP just got a phone with the older pre releae verision of software.
That is the same software mine had out of the box.

June 4th Update

So what does the June 4th update mean for me. Will Trickdroid 3.0 be updated then? Should I wait to flash then?
Once updates come out usually devs will work in putting the changes into their roms.
I'm personally waiting to flash a rom til after this update

Sent from my HTC VLE_U using XDA
Yea, the note says it is still 4.0.3. Is there anything even worth while in 4.0.4 that it is so important other than a number upgrade? Going back the the OP, yes, ROMs like TrickDroid will update the base to the latest. It is for T-MobUS, but I'm sure our boys across the pond will get soon. I'm sure EU ROMs like LeeDroid will update as well as soon as the update is released on the 4th.

I forget the specifics, but yes, 4.0.4 brings a significant number of improvements, 100+, but nothing you'd notice UI wise. They're all just tweaks to the existing code.
