Yup... what I was thinking
Yep 2.2
i897uckb1
froyo.uckb1
Kernel version 2.6.32.9
I am not familiar with all of the Captivate specific lingo you guys use (I'm an HTC Glacier user) but my good friend has the Captivate - and I was wondering if there is a link I can direct him to so that he can get the leaked ROM? (Official 2.2)
Any help is appreciated.

ROMs made from leaked ROMs (the November and February leaks) are in the Devs section, but with the official version rolling out today he should just go with that.

Thanks. Please let me know if you have any success.
...tried Kies Mini at 11:03am EST and it was working. I've been messing with the phone for the last half hour now and have found that I am pretty happy with the e-mail updates, browser updates, and the fact that the update didn't remove any of the data from my phone that I can tell. I just have to re-organize my home screen and get my icons and widgets the way I like them.

Ask your friend to download Kies Mini software from Samsung support site. Then he connects the phone to it and it will automatically upgrade. ROM image files (which are already leaks a few days ago) are useless to you unless you want to use ODIN tools.

No, bone stock. The Kies Mini was also updated on my machine a few days ago, on the 19th, I think.
As for the update, it went smooth. I cannot find anywhere the update file is on my host machine, as if it used the phone's memory to store it as it downloaded it.
It appears that Samsung was listening to some of the wish list stuff. I almost forgot to check to see if copy/paste was active in Exchange or not, as well as the browser. There is a MUCH improved copy/paste in the web browser, but no copy or text selection in the e-mail prog.
.
Great, I can't wait to try this out at home. Does anyone that has updated to the 2.2 use HeyTell? If so, can you verify if it is working correctly?

Thanks. A Quick search and found everything I need.
so why use official 2.2 when there is better? looks? smooth? better than a custom rom? if not then why are people wasting their time upgrading? not trying to ***** just wondering why the hype when really its almost downgrading.
edit: those of you who like to stay close to stock, i understand why you want to upgrade. its the others that dont make sense.

This thread should probably be merged with the main upgrade thread here, but...
For me, I never bothered to mess with the Captivate. First and foremost, I didn't want to void my warranty. Otherwise, it was just because I didn't feel like messing with it. I have three phones, one of which never has a SIM in it (Captivate). I use mine as a tablet more than anything else. Well, a really small tablet
I'm biding my time until I either get the Infuse or a tablet of some sort. Until then, I don't feel like messing with it. Had the update not worked as quickly and smoothly as it did, I wouldn't have bothered.
.
Please post anything about the 2.2 update in the already opened thread.
Android 2.3 Software Number EH17 From USCC... Its posted on their site
uscellular.com/androidupgrades
Not working for some reason.....
I have tried to update...but Kies mini is telling me I have the latest version lol
You can take it to a store tech center and have them reflash your phone with it if mini kies isn't working.
Mini kies has been a flaming hot mess more often than not with these updates, so a full reflash at the store is probably not a bad idea anyway.
Strange....Its been taken down!

i am not sure whats going on guys but the Mez is dead on XDA,
all support, modding, and firmwares, both the new EH09 and old stuff is over at rootzwiki.
i dont like it, i much prefer XDA but there was already this morning a rooted stock EH09 plus the full stock EH09
both for odin.
already flashed the stock unrooted and and booting into the stock rooted now.
sorry guys but rootzwiki has got a huge jump on this.
not even our own dev section here has anything new about EH09, and hasnt had any firmware/rom updates in weeks...

Bottom line: Our developers and users have moved to Rootzwiki. Its still the same users and developers that were once here; same usernames and everything. Everyone's there. Just a new location (and new management).
Whats done is done; the mass exodus has occurred and it can't be changed. So lets quit talking about it. Get on the Rootzwiki boat or stay in ghost town. Your choice.

Just upgraded without kies.
No kies on my Samsung N150 Plus netbook, just installed USCC_I500_EH09_SimpleDL from the US Cellular android upgrade section. Followed instructions (except for battery life, performed this with 81%) phone rebooted, all apps intact including acircuitboard live wallpaper, root apps, contacts, calender, etc...., EXCEPT ROOT ACCESS! Super User gone baby, verified with root check app. guess I'll give GingerBreak a try this weekend, heck I may even try SuperOneClick again to see what happens. Here's a trick for you warranty voider freaker outers, if you brick it, just tell your provider you lost the phone and pay the $50 or whatever dollar insurance claim and get a new GXS.
Obviously no root access, it's a stock official rom.

I think the stock rom could be downloaded from KIES
You can find the ZIP from temp files when re-install or update a new rom
Where can I find the stock tar? I'm new to this. I soft bricked my phone.. Galaxy S II LTE i727r from Rogers... I tried to root it odin froze.. now the phone is displaying this message " Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again" Any help on how I can flash back to stock rom?
Im sure there are plenty of threads out there for this but i am kind of in a rush. I am looking to purchase a s2 skyrocket off someone on craigslist who had mentioned this site and said he "rooted" the phone. I am no expert but am curious if you guys know any legit at&t stock versions of the phone so i dont have to worry about any errors or minor issues on the phone. I want it to be completely back to normal. Please let me know what you guys think or if you have any advice at all on what to do.
Thanks.

I just acquired a Samsung Infuse so am entirely new to this phone, have rooted it so far via SuperOneClick, but am not having issues determining the best method of acquiring CWM so as to flash some new ROMS.
there are a number of threads i found through searching the forums but all of them seem to be quite old (2011). one of them i tried and it did not work, i got an e-signature failed error of some kind and couldn't find any solid information about how to get around that.
for someone who is brand new to this phone and disgruntled with the performance of 2.3.3, what would be the best method to utilize to get CWM to get a good ROM on this thing?
Thanks in advance

You guys are lifesavers. Is there a ROM any of you would recommend to load straight on the phone easily now that I have rooted GB 2.3.6 with the red CWM??
Looking forward to not having to deal with the brutal battery life and laggy response of 2.3.3! :laugh:
Yeah u can flash all the ROM over 2.3.6 thru CWM, But just keep in mind if u want JB then u have to flash ICS first the JB.
There are many many good GB roms with good battery life i will not name them just flash and see which suits u the most.

well i figured id update here as everyone's been such a big help and i really went through a heck of a process trying to get things back to a working state.
from CM9 i attempted to flash SlimBean and then got stuck in a boot loop. from there, i made the terrible mistake of panicking and trying to flash back to CM9, which seemed like it worked until i got stuck in a boot loop again. i panicked further and tried to flash all the way back to stock GB 2.3.6 which just messed everything up and i bricked it. could not get into download mode, nothing. i realize how stupid all of my mistakes were but thats what learning is about LOL.
finally today i uninstalled all versions of KIES, reinstalled latest version of java, used a different (non-front panel) usb port, with a brand new usb cable (one of my quality ones from a branded charger vs. the cheap one i was using previously). finally got ODIN to recognize my phone and flashed tue UCLB3 Unbrick w/ Root and it worked like a charm.
so i'm going to start again and try to work my way more carefully up to the top haha. thanks again for all the help guys, really appreciate the great infuse community here :good:
