Captivates don't have any sd card issues, just the bell vibrant. Rogers did say in the first half of 2011 you'll get the update, were just 4 days in though so keep waiting.

The problems were with their ****ty Kies app. I built Assonance on top of that firmware and not a single person had an SD-card blowup in the thread.

Will it be made into an Odin when it comes out?

I sure hope so, I dont think I will do any rom flashing till I know it can be flashed back to stock easily.

Can we flash it back to stock ROM though? I remember there was talk here about the stock ROM and how we can't flash it back to stock or something, but that was a couple months ago... and I've started to lose track of things here.
Edit: Hmm... Looks like I found a thread on how to get back to the Rogers ROM.

They also said Froyo was to be released in mid-December of 2010. Phone release was also massively delayed.

i believe it was infact the kernel that caused the issues, did you build the kernel from bell sources?
DG pulled perception 9 which was not even i9000m based but i think the kernel he built was. perception 9 was rereleased as 9.5 with a different kernel. there were users on that thread reporting sd card problems but very few, still risky. that said the telus rom didnt cause any problems and neither did the i9000 international so i think the captivate is safe. as the software is ready you guys might even beat att to the punch this time! if you get hsupa enabled this time ill definitely flash a rogers rom.

Ignore this message because of a double posting.

I was able to get mine to stock Rogers ROM but I dont know if its able to get EXACTLY like how rogers has. Mine looks like the rogers one but I think it was made off the AT&T one because it has their logo on the bootup and its not JF6 (mine says JI2 unless thats how it is on a stock Rogers I didnt check before I did flashing), I was able to get rid of the AT&T logo but that still bugs me unless someone can confirm this for me.

Yeah. You can get the Rogers stock files somewhere on the forums and just flash it all using Heimdall. Thats what I did after Odin bricked my phone twice ;D. Also, no Froyo yet. Don't expect it any time soon - this IS Rogers we're dealing with.

It isn't Kies that was the issue. This was happening to people well before the 2.2 update and at random times. My girlfriend's Vibrant has gone twice now. Once just randomly force closing everything and then dying while on 2.1, the second one which came from Samsung with 2.2 on it also did the same thing. She is now waiting for phone #3. Hardware has to be a factor.

speaking of which.. rogers/samsung has started pushing froyo 2.2 lol.. finally.. you'll need a kies update http://www.samsungapps.com/about/onPc.as

Really? That's weird, I've got the latest Kies but "Update Firmware" is still grayed out.

Definitely wouldn't at this time... I'm sure the partition sizes on the two devices are different, as was the case with the G2 and the Desire Z

I just flashed the P999 AP BIN on my O2X (P990) with SmartFlash for P990 .
Its looking really good. Stock Android 2.2.2 (Froyo) with T-Mobile bloat, but nothing we cant uninstall.
EDIT: It seems I cant connect to my Vodafone network. Everything else seems to be working.
EDIT2: Root is gone. See if Super One Click can bring it back...Yup got root back .

So everything is working apart from the network I.e. phone calls, SMS etc?

More or less, but there are still issues when it comes to partitions. You better follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1031969

can someone explain how to flash the firmware using smartflash? I cant seem to get it working

Hmm, my phone only reads LG-P999-V10f in the Factory Version part of settings. There was a screenshot in an different thread of the Factory Version being LGP999AT-00-v10f-TMO-US-MAR-27-2011. Now this one is LGP999AT-01-V10f-310-260-MAR-27-2011+0.
Does that mean there is 3 different versions of the firmware out there? If so I wonder if any have the 850 Band for AT&T available to select?

As reported in other threads, clicking on those menu items doesn't actually do anything.

It is thought that it may take a modified baseband to make them accessible (although one post in the general section sounded like he received a SIM unlock code from TMO and was told to activate it with an AT&T SIM in the device).
Related to that, the flashing of the G2x Firmware on the Ox2 probably screwed up the baseband on it,as they use different bands. Someone on the Ox2 Forum did the reverse - everything worked but the network connections also

AT&T update

Hey guys,
my InFuse just told me it has an update available. I postponed it right now.
Mine is rooted and unlocked.
Is is possible to safely do the update?
Thanks for your input.

There is a whole 4 pages dedicated to this in the general forum... Look there...

Just found it ... I am truely sorry! My fault!

it will most likely not work. it has to be stock

Does anyone know where the update is stored on the phone, I wanted to pull it and look over it and maybe attach it to a ROM. Also does anyone know what it does?

Update does not work for custom roms, i did it on infused 1.1.4, no dice

It checked for att's bloatware....if you've deleted it or frozen it, the update will fail...
Sent from my Samsung Infuse 4G

Yeah im having problems with mine, but now its saying im up to date but the version posted in the other thread doesnt match. Going to reset and update tomorrow then redo it all

It worked fine for my stock rooted phone with bloatware and tethering manager completely deleted. Now running FROYO.UCKE3.

Same here... it updated successfully on my stock rooted Infuse with the bloatware all deleted. I am still looking forward to ROM development with the new baseband(radio) though.

Questions About Newest Baseband and Rooting

I haven't had a G2X in a while, pretty much since the last baseband update was out, I have a couple of questions:
-Is the new baseband OTA? or do I have to download the kdz file and go that route?
-I don't remember how to root this device, can i go for the new baseband and THEN root? Also is the new baseband fixed to be able to work with ICS and JB roms without any fixes?
Thanks.

Nah, you have to use LG's software update tool. You need to be running stock in order to do so. I'd hook you up with a link but unfortunately I'm a new kid on the block. Just do a search and you'll find it with ease.

You can indeed upgrade to the new baseband and then root. Some ROMs will be baked to be able to handle it while others will require you to just flash Owain's fix.
Hope this helped.

Ah that's right, the LG update tool, I forgot about that. I've had a couple G2X's and I'm not a noob to the device, just been a while and rooted other phones so I forgot.
I'll worry about it when I get around to it. thanks.

I updated my BB OTA, just gotta be on stock rom and recovery..

The one I'm getting today is a used g2x, but its not rooted, so obviously stock. It probably is updated already, but who knows.

4G Not Working!

The title says it. My Wind SGH-T959W's (Galaxy S 4G) 4G is not working on the ROM that I am using. The ROM that I am using currently is Octane 2.3.6 for T959V, but all ROMs for that phone work on mine. 4G Only works on a few ROMs that I installed, but they aren't Deodexed (which i need). Is there a way to get the 4G to work on the phone?
Thanl You

If it says "H" next to the signal bar, you're using "4G". The stock Samsung ROM uses 4G instead of showing H, all other ROMs show H.

There isn't an H either. I think the problem is that the ROM has support for only T-Mobile, but I'm just looking that there is a way i could get 4G with Wind.

@getochkn made a thread for the Wind LB6 modem here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1941078
There doesn't seem to be a flashable zip for 2.3.6 but if you update to anything newer than ICS you'll be able to flash it.
I actually recommend you give CM11 a go. 2.3.6 is now 2 years old and your phone is vulnerable to a lot of exploits that Samsung never patched but are fixed with more recent ROMs. KitKat runs amazingly well on this phone and you won't have the bloat that the stock Samsung rom comes with too.

Check out the CM11 thread, there haven't been complaints about the ROM. There was an issue with a Google Play Services update causing some battery drain, but I released an update a few days ago that had a patch fixing that.
It's a solid ROM, it still amazes me how well it works on this phone .

Try doing a factory reset, if that doesn't work, do full wipes and then reinstall the ROM.

I got 4G working by wiping everything, and installing the rom again. Then I installed gapps and 4G wont work. I did all of that again but didnt install gapps and it works great! :good: The ROM is actually very good for this phone and I will probably keep it like this.
But I still need the gapps for automatic updates, and very easily downloading apps. Mobogenie just doesnt do it for me.
And Candy Crush wont work as when i launch it, it stays at the loading screen then just closes to the home screen.
Any way to fix these issues?
