I'm new to Android - my apologies if this is an ignorant question.
If I root my Captivate will I be removing myself from OTA updates?
From what I understand rooting it does not prevent you from getting the OTA updates but if you put a custom ROM on there you will not be able to get the Samsung ROM when they release it - but then again you won't need it. Everything I've read about Samsung so far pretty much indicates that won't be anytime soon - apparently they are terrible at software updates. I don't know that first hand though, this is the first Samsung Smartphone I've owned.
If you rooted just to remove the AT&T bloat then you should have no worries about when they release Froyo.
If I'm wrong someone please correct me!
No, you'll be fine.
Edit: I agree with what the previous poster said.
Awesome, thanks guys. Looks like I'll move forward with a root this weekend. Time to remove some AT&T crapware
also you can always remove root later if its a problem
since you're new to android and this phone, i highly suggest you read the Pimp my captivate pdf provided for in a sticky on this sub forum.

First thing I did when I got home was jump on xda and read through that PDF. It's well put together; thanks for taking the time. I wanted to wait awhile for some others to take the plunge and report before I dove in myself.

I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure there was already a leaked copy of the Samsung Froyo so I don't think it will be too far off for the OTA

Quite the opposite. That leaked copy is an early test build which lacks a lot of features and buggy as well.
^yeah dont try it!!!
I am new to the Smartphone and I have an naive question? Is there any possible danger to root the Captivate? Would it be locked by AT&T? Thanks!

Not sure what you mean by "locked by AT&T", but, AT&T will never know its been rooted unless they have it in their hands.
There is always the possibility of something going wrong, but unlikely if you follow the directions as they are written. Research is important too. I've learned TONS here, from others mistakes and experiments.
i have epic 4g (rooted) but OTA not working.
cant update PRL, FIRMWARE, nor profile. I am kinda worried.
Has anyone tried updating PRL?
Is there a way to install OTA.APK back to my rooted phone? I copied the old stock OTA.APK to my sd card and tried installing it in debugging mode, but wouldnt let me.
Help?

Hi.
I'm a new membr to XDA, not ANdroid, I've had my Samsung s3 since it came out. I want to upgrade to Jellybean. I Have Odin, and I have the JB file to Flash. I'm blind, so I'm not sure what the best way of doing this is. Odin is accessible, but entering download mode might be a problem because there would be no speach unless there was vibration feedback. Also, how do I unlock the bootloader? I'm using a PC. Can I just use Odin to unlock it? Thanks for the help in advance.:fingers-crossed:
I would read up on it. But if you want easy just wait (sources say maybe Friday) for the ota. It will be coming soon.

Well, I could, But I don't mind hard. I like challenges. LOL.
Read section 2 of Droidstyle's guide in the development section. In section two of that guide, you will find everything you need to root, unlock, and install a custom recovery in order to flash a JB rom.
Wait and I do apologize. I'm not sure how best to help you if you do in fact have a visual handicap. I'm honestly not aware of a way to go forward and not cause any issues.

When it comes to Devs making ROMs.
And you're probably on a US non Brazil firmware too? And this update is useful to whom? Brazil. And can't be flashed to any other devices other than its intended to. By the time a dev could disect an ota and make it work, we'll probably have the official update. Dev or not, no single person who gets the OTA is obligated to share. People need to be patient. If a dev can work the magic and make something work from a FULL SYSTEM DUMP, awesome. But people harpooning on an update like its a cure for cancer just makes me laugh and shake my head.

Although fairly tricky, there are people with the 1575 who've gotten the Indian 6.0 update working on their phones...just an FYI. I'd assume it's the same here.
Yep.. Don't FTT guys
I´m looking for the OTA too.
I tried to save the .zip from \cache at no avail. It updated itself in a blink.
Looking for it myself.
I liked it very much, but, just for sake of security I wa aiming to save it before upgrade, now I wait for somebody skiller...
I´d love to get it via Mega and/or Google Drive.
The update I did took me a few hours at my office (quite low speed there) and a few dozen miniutes more at home.
By the way, it runs smooth, it worthed my blink distraction, other than the OTA I failed to save.
Never mind. got it myself:

Thank u man, flashed and working!

Hello, most of custom ROM OTA is not a incremental updates unlike OEM does. Always official custom ROM eg Lineage, RR all give full ROM package.
My question to you, any ROM that supports incremental updates through OTA like OEM does?

It should list the features available in the ROM in the ROM thread. If it has OTA it'll be listed, or just post in the ROM thread and ask if it gives OTAs.
You can just download and flash the incremental updates manually, what's the difference. Don't be lazy.

First of all, I'm far from a noob, lol.
Second, learn to read and comprehend. I didn't say anything about all ROMs having incremental updates. I said for them to read the ROM thread and that the features of the ROM should be listed and "IF" the ROM offers OTA updates, it would be listed in the features. And if OTAs are not offered then they could just manually download any ROM updates that "are" offered and flash them manually.
Did you understand me that time, noob? Learn to see who you're talking to, lol.

The XDA rules state that members are to search first because in most cases the question you have has been asked before or at least is already easily available by using the XDA search feature. Also, the reason for the ROM threads are not just for members to get ROMs, it's also for them to read everything they might need to know about the ROM, it's features and the things required to flash and use it. This information should be in the first post of the ROM thread. The rest of the thread will contain questions about the ROM and troubleshooting issues. XDA is about sharing information but it's also about making that information available for you to find for yourself. Just take time and read because what you want to know is out there if you just look.
The reason I'm saying for you to read through the ROM threads is because you'll make a more accurate choice of which ROM you want because anything anyone might suggest may not be satisfactory for you and that would just cause you to make another thread or post to ask for another opinion. It will come out to the best for you if you just read and try a few until you find one you like. It's what you'll end up doing anyway no matter what anyone suggests, so just make a long story short without all the unnecessary posts from either of us.

OTA doesn't mean incremental, so if a ROM offers OTA it doesn't automatically offer incremental OTA. Wrong information!

I've already told one person this in this thread, now I have to tell you as well. Learn to read.
Pay close attention to the details now.
I never said anything about a ROM that supports OTA means that it also automatically supports incremental updates. You are making a connection between those two things that I never said anything about.
If you read the first post of this thread, the OP specifically asked if there are any ROMs that support incremental updates via OTA. My reply was, if a ROM here supports incremental updates via OTA, it would be listed in the changelog or it would be in a list of features that the ROM supports.
So, that means, the only thing wrong here is your interpretation of what I posted. Nice try though.

Sorry, but your post is just unclear and ambigous. You only wrote about OTA and didn't even mention incrementals, so your post seemed to either imply that you thought that that was the same or didn't get the question. And btw, incrementals and OTA don't really have a relation, there can be non-OTA incrementals and non-incremental OTAs. So your post wasn't clearly answering the question, so not poor reading on my side but poor writing on your side.

The point is, if you want to know if a ROM has a certain feature, you read the ROM thread to find its list of features or you read the changelog or you ask in the thread where the ROM is posted.

What have you tried so far? Did you try the g930U_REV_9_ENG_ROOT.tar? I'm wondering if that will still work along with s7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root_V12.zip. I was just given this phone today and was hoping it had an older version than this "A" version. I don't know if the Samsung Experience version being 9.0 means anything at all. This is the first post I've read on this version.
After a bit of digging on Google this shows up:

In this case, the root thread linked is valid, but G930TUVSACSG1 is U10 and the engboot provided is U9. I happen to also be using SG1 (I should've checked XDA before updating, silly me).
I happen to have the U10 engineering ROM, but none of the tools to modify it like all the previous variants.

Hey, I did receive another S7 (friends give me old phones because they know I love geeking out) and rooted successfully, so I appreciate the info. Secondly, I noticed a new eng bootloader was uploaded to AFH a few weeks ago, the one we used was rev8, this one being rev10, so I'm going to go ahead and start fresh to see if its any improvement. Just thought I'd share the info, return the favor so to speak, in case you're interested in checking it out. :highfive:
I'll follow up if everything was successful.

Yea, I had rooted with his first few iterations of that thread, which obviously was iffy on whether it was worth having root due to overheating, battery drain, etc etc. The post you mentioned was me wanting to tinker with an extra phone that had been updated beyond what was considered exploitable. And while it's only day 2-3, and not my 'daily driver', I must say, it seems to be considerably more responsive and stable thus far, actually haven't noticed much in terms of drain, lag, or heat like before, so I can definitely recommend it. Obviously, results may very, but following procedure, I flashed stock beforehand, then rooted using instructions to a T, only swapping out the eng boot. Just had a response on the root thread stating he successfully rooted his s7 edge from the latest update (by renaming the eng boot, but honestly, an unnecessary step).
Feel free to let me know how it goes (if you try it out), and good luck! :highfive::good:

I want to give the v10 a try, but I just recently had to reroot due to trying to flash a Dolby Atmos zip that put me into an unrecoverable bootloop. I'm thinking that I'll have to reroot if I flash the eng.boot. I'm too lazy to set up my phone again so soon. Lol. When I do though, I'll let you know.

I feel ya, it becomes a chore at times, but just to update, it's been running smooth as silk for me, again, not my daily driver, but using it frequently enough that I can verify that this has been the smoothest running eng boot setup I've had (and I've had them all). I'm not usually very lucky in that regard, even with the technical know-how to optimize it to it's maximum potential, I'm fairly pleased with it. I dare say it's been comparable to running a standard oem root environment, but I'm hesitant because I'm sure thats when it'll turn around and bite me in the ass lol.
