I used the cleaner tool and just froze bloat, no desensing.

Now I I can't ever use 3g its always 1x. 4G works but seems to "stop" working after a while. Any ideas?
[HTC Rezound] eallan:
I should add:

I had my bionic next to it the entire day, it had 3G the whole time while the Rezound was on 1X.
[HTC Rezound] nrfitchett4:
Verizon has been having a lot of data issues lately. I would call them
[HTC Rezound] eallan:
I'll call them today. It doesn't make sense when my bionic works fine and my work blackberry does as well :(

Just checked for update under settings and there was an update, but when the phone restarts and tries to install the update, it fails. Anyone else?

"Software Update: Install Interrupted - The software update could not be installed at this time."
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] memphian:
Are you on a completely stock phone?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
^yup, complete stock phone.

I checked for updates and there was one, downloaded, update failed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] 40Love:
Just bought my I777 from ATT and powered it up. Completely stock and experienced the same failure.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vdubguy:
Same here. Completely stock. Tried my Girlfriends SGS2.....same deal.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
Guess I wasn't the only one with the failure.. lol.. wonder what's the update about..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mikeroberts30:
Mine failed also, completely stock as well. Out of curiosity what is this update include?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] kdwolf85:
OTA updates probably aren't a good thing for you to try and do. They have been known to brick the og gs line. If there is an update you should try over Samsung Kies
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vdubguy:
I just tried Kies. No update there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nyk0n.:
Same thing here, just tried on my wifes phone and after restart says update failed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] vdubguy:
Just talked to AT&T. The rep said there wasn't an update for the I-777 only for the Skyrocket.

Samsung also says there is no update.

Same old stuff........AT&T says talk to Samsung......Samsung says talk to AT&T.Should have know that's how it would go.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
lol, so AT&T pushed the update to the wrong devices or something?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shishir95:
I think what happened was that the update application glitched out. Or maybe they're testing the machines for a bigger update. Maybe KK6 or whatever just came out.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jaguars34:
It seems like everyone at at&t has left the original GS2 And just focused on the skyrocket.. (Noting that at&t announced the skyrocket would be updated to ICS but have yet to say anything on the original gs2..)

It's just AT&T trying to secretly install CIQ on the phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
^Possibly xD
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
I ran into this problem too, but after 3 attempts (2 fails and 1 success) to install the update, I got it to work!

First of all, this update is NOT the SkyRocket's... after all, we are on the Orignal SGS2, and the SkyRocket and OSGS2 have COMPLETELY different model numbers.

Second of all, the update brings the phone to 2.3.6 and firmware I777UCKK6. If I am correct, 2.3.6 is also supposed to have better battery life ;)

So, to get the update to work, here is what I did:

*NOTE* I too was 100% stock, but rooted and removed some of the bloatware on the phone. It seems that this may have caused the update failure.

1) Flash one of the kernels found on Entropy512's post on how to return to stock. It seems that whether you choose the rooted or non-rooted one does not matter (EX: I was already rooted and installed the non-rooted Kernel, but remained rooted afterwards). This will return all bloatware to the phone.

2) Wait 24Hrs OR change the date forward a day

3) look for an update again and install

4) Enjoy the update!

5) If rooted, then you will need to root again

6) Once rooted, you can remove the bloatware again. I recommend copying it to a separate folder so that future OTA updates can be done by simply copying the apk files back to system/apps.

I hope this works for everyone else too ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LiLChris06:
Or just flash UnNamed 2.0 :p
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
Well, yeah, but some prefer to stay on official stock firmwares... like myself lol.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
No matter whether you choose to go with stock or UnNamed, I need to make some minor corrections to the steps I listed above. If you decide to do what I did, then follow THESE ones instead.

*1) Flash one of the kernels found on Entropy512's post on how to return to stock. This will return all bloatware to the phone.

* If you are not currently rooted and want to keep the phone unrooted, then use the non-rooted kernel

** If you are currently rooted or plan to root after the update, then use the rooted UCKH7 Kernel

*** I found out that after the update, SuperOneClick will not root KK6, BUT if you are rooted before the update, the root will stay.

2) Wait 24Hrs OR change the date forward a day

3) look for an update again and install

4) Enjoy the update!

5) If you are rooted, you can then remove bloatware, but it's recommeded that you just move the bloatware apk files to another folder for future updates.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kaldrick:
Im a newb

I've gone threw 3 SGH-i777's and was never able to get a update. Is this update that is now released worth going through the hassle of updating? If it actually has increased battery life then it would be well worth it.

I'm waiting for my 4th SGH-i777 to come in the mail saterday.

Just wanna know if the update is worth it? I've never see a OTA update and i hear bad things. So I'm highly confused on what to do saterday.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] veliksam:
All good here, updated by ota.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] keoni34:
Mine went through also. Great day!!!!!!!!

I am getting faster data speeds than I've been able to get before the update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] ack154:
Those of you that are able to successfully update OTA - could you include what ROM/root status you're at?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mfreywald:
Not seeing the update yet. Still says my phone is up to date. I'm rooted but only by doing doomlords batch method so all bloatware is still there. Will try again later. I really hate having to keep changing my date ahead a day every time.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Thegodfather156:
updated on my wifes phone, KK6 2.3.6 is what it is reading now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
This is the official update 2.3.6, but beware, it is UNrooted and contains the new bootloader that brings back the yellow triangle. Flash with Odin-> http://rootzwiki.com/topic/11366-firmware-i777uckk6-galaxy-s-ii-att/ Neither of the Zerg, or Super1click options work to root it. However you can flash a kernel like Zedomax's and gain root. Then you can flash this .tar which brings back the old bootloader-> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1316726
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] veliksam:
I was not rooted. I was using the leaked version of 2.3.6, then restored to stock 2.3.4 then checked for update and updated ota. I'm not gonna root because I'll probably loose my wifi if i use the cwm and superone.

Sent From My KickAss ATT SGS2 SPORTING CM7
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] RexEscape:
I just had a successful update over WiFi. My phone started right now. I checked to see if I'm still rooted (by going into ES File Explorer and browsing through the system files). I can still do that (is this a good way to check?) Also I used TiBU to remove "Featured Apps" that the updated reinstalled. Also, I made sure the TetheringManger2.apk is not in there. It's not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
Well, I think I may just be reverting back to UCKH7.

When calling people, they say that it sounds like I am "swimming" and my voice keeps going "in and out". Its annoying because I can hear them perfectly fine, yet they keep repeating "Hello? Hello!? Are you still there?"

*sigh*

I have had this problem with all of the leaked versions as well!!!!

"EDIT*

I just installed the UCKH7 modem while keeping the UCKK6 kernel and all is working fine now.

Still no clue as to what the heck is wrong with the firmwares, but I am thinking of emailing ATT or something... but afraid to tell them that I KNOW that the issue is with the modem because of my tests done through flashing. (TEST was that every single modem except the UCKH7 one gives me that "swimming" problem).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Nyk0n.:
Updated the wifes phone via OTA and she has not had any probs. Her phone has never been rooted. Mine on the other hand has and i'm running UnNamed 2.1.1 with UCKK6 and also have had no problems.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LMaui:
still says current

Today is saturday, I'm in Hawaii and it still says current and up to date. Is there another way to get this update?

I'm a new convert from the iPhone (had one since the beginning) and my GS2 is stock at this point.

I'd really like to get the update, any ideas out there?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mfreywald:
I'm in California and still seeing up to date. They must be rolling this out very slowly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] tat2messiah:
West coast here and says up to date
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
Maybe, just maybe, they realized that some phones are having call problems and delayed the update until they correct the problems (if so, then those who already got the update would get another one later when everyone else gets theirs for their first time). I doubt this, but it is possible and I personally hope it happens, lol. I have an Acer Iconia tablet running Android and Acer did it once because there was an issue with the Honeycomb 3.1 update. A week or so later, they re-released the update, as well as patches for those who got the defective update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
It appears that AT&T pulled the update. My phone did receive updates from day one but I can't apply because of rooting and missing bloatware. Just checked again minutes ago, it tells me my phone is update to date. I can download update yesterday and the day before.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rednukleus:
I have a stock device that is not yet rooted, and the OTA is available. I want to update, and also want root and an open bootloader. From your message, the easiest path for me is to apply the update, then flash Zedomax's kernel, and finally flash the .tar you provided. Please confirm this before I proceed. Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bubba11:
"clear data in device manager"

?

guess ima idiot..

i assume this refers to clear memory in Ram tab.?

doesn't help for me but again, maybe i'm totally misunderstanding.

i can roll the date..and have. still states "up to date"

i've rooted w/ zergrush. otherwise stock
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] mfreywald:
It means, go into settings/applications/manage applications. Then hit the 'all' tab at the top and scroll down to 'device management' and in there hit clear data.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iteam:
Same for me too!

I am on stock 2.3.4 rooted with Entropy's DD 12-12-2011 Kernel:confused:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
You will have to flash back to stock KH7. The update needs some bloatware to be around in order to work. Most of us root phone to remove those same bloatware. So the only way back is to flash back to stock.

I'd skip this update altogether. There isn't much in the update to warrant the extra flash back to stock step. ICS is right around corner. I'd save my trouble wait until ICS update to do the back to stock stuff.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iteam:
Suppose I'll wait... Just really wanted the lockscreen bug fix as I like to have my lockscreen show more than the "immediate" option as I have it in a pattern lock mode... I didn't remove bloatware, but I did freeze some bloatware. Anybody think freezing the bloatware could be preventing this update? Also would be pissed if it broke the 14 Toggle Mod! LOL:D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
The lock screen bug is simply a UI bug not a security bug. The unlock screen showed up when it shouldn't. That's about it. Set it to immediate skips the buggy part. The bug fix is to simply replace the unlock screen with normal swipe to unlock screen without the need for pattern or key. It is not what you think it is.

If you simply freezed the bloatware, you can easily unfreeze it before apply the update. That should do it unless you have some custom kernel that the update don't like.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] iteam:
Cool, thanks for your input / time ;). I wouldn't care about the lockscreen issue but I need a security lock on my phone, at the same time I like to see my lockscreen for more than a few seconds... I was gonna try and "defrost" the bloatware and try again as I just did a Nandroid backup so I can revert to that if need be:)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] R2D2_SW:
If you are rooted, make sure you have the stock recovery image instead of CWM. You can stay rooted and be able to get the OTA update as long as you have the stock recovery image. I was getting this error as well until I brought back the original recovery image.

FYI, the update bring the lockscreen fix and a few other minor stuff you may not even notice. In my case, it actually broke the wi-fi so I went back to 2.3.4. It's no major update so you might as well wait for ICS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] LMaui:
Update finally!

My update finally came through, they must have fixed whatever was wrong or because I am in Hawaii I got it last. Anyway, I am at 97% installation, it won't be long now. I hope I don't experience any problems.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
after update, please tell us your baseband, kernel, and build number.

I want to see if it is the same as the one I got (meaning problem is still there) or if it is different (fixed?)

My phone doesn't come up with any more updates, which means that it isn't picking up a fix for the problems in UCKK6 yet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] igolfchip:

you TURNED OFF wifi?

why?

sorry if that's a dumb ques
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MSHampton:
Yes, I turned OFF wifi. Everytime I tried it with wifi on, it said there was nothing to get. Then I remembered back to the captivate that the updates wanted to be done over AT&Ts network for some reason. Turned it off and it found the update and downloaded it. Did this about 15 minutes ago.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hurley81388:
Sorry guys, new to the galaxy s2 just picked one up from radio shack an hour ago.

it's stock on 2.3.4 haven't installed anything or synced with any google accounts yet.

i've read very mixed messages on this forums- if i root 2.3.4 using doomlord's easy rooting toolkit and do NOT freeze any bloatware will i be able to accept the OTA update? can anyone reject or confirm this?

also, personally i like touchwiz and would like to keep my phone stock except for bloatware freezing. if i root and only freeze bloatware would this prevent me from receiving the OTA ICS update next year? or is this an unknown. thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bubba11:
just updated to 2.3.6

rooted + stock rom

no issues noted so far

rooted via zergrush exploit [Doomlord's]

still have root

* did experience a random reboot - but, i have had those prior to updating
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] highaltitude:
sorry for the delay. Yes this will work just fine. However when you root you are no longer running the stock kernel, but a modified one, then when you flash the last .tar you are replacing the new bootloader with the old bootloader.

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:32 PM ----------

How did you get the Zergrush to root the new update? Maybe its been changed since I tried it back when the update came out. Hmm, I may check it again.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bubba11:
sorry, maybe i wasn't clear.

i had root prior to the ota update [via zergrush]

root status remained unchanged after updating
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] hurley81388:
is this random rebooting a common occurrence? i thought i was going crazy and that i had accidentally been shutting off the phone but i've experienced it twice today where the ATT splash screen has randomly showed up.

and i've only had the phone for 2 hours. coming from a skyrocket where i never had this issue...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jfreeman3:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] doesntmatterx:
I am on a rooted s2. So let me get this straight, in order to get the ota update I have to root back to stock?

WHat are the benefits of this new OTA update?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
you can be rooted

you need all bloatware though

benefits aren't much. 2.3.6 instead of 2.3.4. microscopic graphical changes and it may mess up your phone calls.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] doesntmatterx:
THanks for the reply, I think I will pass on this update, as I have read multiple accounts of problems, 1 big one with battery consumption and android os over 70%.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
I know that with battery, it is very sucky at first (like when you first get the phone) and Android has to calibrate itself then it gets better. I wonder if this is what is going on with the bad battery reports and maybe even the Android OS thing.

The deal breaker for me though was the call problem :-\
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jfreeman3:
As I noted previously, following mshampton's good advice, the upgrade installed on my rooted SGS2 without a problem. I have had no phone issues and, having recently moved from blackberry to android, my experience on BB has been that anytime I changed or upgraded the OS, the battery had to settle in. I have had no battery problems after the upgrade but I would recommend letting the battery run down and recycle a time or two before assuming the sky is falling.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MysticKing32:
Hey guys. I'm trying to install the update via ota and it keeps failing at 67% and I've tried 7 times already. So basically I rooted the phone with zedomax kernel then when I got the notification the update was available I switched to entropy's stock kernel and applied it and all the At and t stuff I had removed came back and then I attempted the update and it keeps failing. I read that you have to keep trying but this is getting annoying so does anyone have any ideas.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] spexwood:
I think it may be those custom kernels. After obtaining root, flash the original UCKH7 kernel. (You should keep root, but if it is lost somehow, just user SuperOneClick to reroot). Then try the update.
