[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demitri834:
I can download the update all day but when I get to the white screen with the progress bar it says processing and fails after about 2 minutes. Im rooted and bloatware removed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajendra82:
That was the mistake. Samsung in their infinite wisdom have put a dangerous menu option without any explanation. When you check for update and have partially downloaded it. The proper thing to do is Check for Update again to finish downloading it first. The Resume Update choice for people whose download is 100% but the installation stopped part of the way through. When you selected that with a partial download, the update applied the partial download without finishing it first. That is what caused your phone to brick.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcord11758:
OK so I tried the download got to white screen then failed. No big deal because my phone runs well including GPS. I also have a nandroid saved of the rom on this forum. Although I believe I did not remove my lagfix fully so on that rom I can not reinstall the lag fix.

My problem is that now my is periodically searching for the update and attempting to install is there a way to stop this? Or do I need to flash back to an earlier recovery prior to trying update?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smayst:
Don't update if you're on Exchange Server!

My friend and I both have Captivates, using Exchange Server from our company, and the update totally screwed us up. We both have alpha Exchange security codes (when the phone is off for more than 15min), and after the update, it's masking for numeric-only codes! So we both have to hard reboot. I'm thinking about just rooting it, since I'm losing everything anyway!

Well I went to at&t and got a new phone. Updated it right away. It went though no problem but still does not help gps.... Any ideas??
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dsc522758:
Mine failed at 50% also and that was right after a flash to the stock, "out of box" ROM.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karier13:
I had rooted, did lag fix and took off at&t crap ware and the update did not work. So I reversed the lag fix and tried again. I tried a few times to do the OTA update and I either kept getting communication failed or the update failed at about 50%. I unrooted and then tried again. Still would not work. I even tried a factory data reset and no luck. So I did the update using Clockwork Mod Recovery and it went perfectly. lol The hardest thing was getting the stupid thing to boot into recovery but after a couple of tries it did it. The Baseband is now I897UCJH7 and at the time of the update Quick Office full (the editing version) was there. GPS is still the same as before but if I have Use wireless networks unchecked like I did before it is perfect. But a day or so later Quick Office is back to the not full version like before the update. I can't edit using it. Anyone else have that problem with QO? Any ideas how to get the full version back? I am thinking that there may have been an update to it after the update and it went back to the partial version.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Eschmacher:
I'm back to baseband JF6... now my phone won't even give me the option to update.... i press software update and a pop-up comes up saying no firmware >:(

Same here...wanted to update

It said resume.

I pressed check for update...waited a while..said connection had failed.

went back saw it already had a resume so I assume that was a different one ready to go.

Pressed Resume update.

Did a 5 second reboot

Got a white screen with bar...said something like "failed"...turned off... then now won't turn on no matter what I try...

on phone with att to get replacement...sigh...

[Fascinate General] sic4672:
Anyone plan on trying to get the captivate gps fix and try to monkey it into the fascinate?
[Fascinate General] Whitepaint:
My current thinking on the captivate GPS fix is this, the fix was not listed in the released list of bug fixes in the update. The update that has been announced for the fascinate ( http://tiny.cc/lfrxi ) does not list the GPS fix either. But im thinking that if its included in the captivate update...?
[Fascinate General] elemerica:
Samsung and AT&T have both pretty clearly stated that the Captivate update does in fact include improvements to the GPS.
[Fascinate General] sic4672:
As far as assuming our update will include a gps fix... i doubt it giving how different the handsets are for each carrier.
[Fascinate General] Kubernetes:
I'm going to guess you'll see the same GPS fix. If you look at the update features, it looks almost identical to the one for the Captivate. I'm guessing the basic guts of the update are identical, but it's tweaked to account for the customized apps and other bloatware by each individual carrier. I mean, why would a GPS fix be different for the Captivate vs. Fascinate?
[Fascinate General] sic4672:
The radio is different, but I dont know how important that is to the GPS receiver. If it is integrated to the radio then it could be different enough to warrant a different update.

[Droid X General] mitchuscg:
yea so this morning i manually installed the OTA froyo update and everything was going fine until it starts to reboot and then im stuck at the M logo. happened to me last week when i tried the leaked 2.3.15 update but i flashed it back and it worked. now i read somewhere that you cant use the 2.1 sbf because of the new bootloader. im thinkin my root has something to do with it because 3 guys i work with have the droid x stock and they all have the new update and im stuck here with a POS that doesnt wanna work. any help on how to fix this would be amazing
[Droid X General] cbaty08:
I think your only hope to get it fixed today would be to get down to your local Verizon store and have them flash the sbf of 2.2.

Tell them it failed on the update for some unknown reason...
[Droid X General] mitchuscg:
yep did that. put me on the phone with tech support. sending me a new dx and im mailing them mine.
[Droid X General] Droid X 7:
If you've had it longer than 30 days they will send you a refurbished X. You might want to check with Verizon. It may not even matter to you but good to know. I had to get a new BB	Tour & it was a referb but I couldn't tell & all worked well.
[Droid X General] mitchuscg:
yea they said they are sending me a refurb but as long as it works. i think im gonna get rid of it once the htc desire HD is released in the US

[Galaxy S I9000 General] AV1985:
I don't know where I found these files, probably in a thread hidden away on XDA but looked again and had no luck!

Basically, the attached zip file, unzip the files. Plug in SGS with USB debugging on and open the recovery batch file.

The phone automatically goes into recovery.

Useful if anyone is struggling with the three button combo!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] mengsuan:
This has been posted in the rooting guide.

ADB reboot method does not help the phone when it fails to start properly.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AV1985:
I couldn't find the rooting guide! If you do, please credit that thread and poster with this but this is useful for people in a separate thread. I've used it numerous times!

It's certainly no good for a crashed/bricked phone but is useful for just testing new firmwares, rooting, lagfixing, etc.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DarthV:
That's not entirely helpful, the reason why the 3 button modes are needed is if your phone cannot be reached by the SDK.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AV1985:
I've used it several times just to reboot into recovery to flash a firmware rather than the hassle of taking battery out because three button combo didn't work.

You don't have to like it or use it but if it was useful to me then even if there's ONE other person who this is useful to, then great.

Considering a guy takes his time to make a post to try and help, maybe it'd be better if you didn't just slate it because it wasn't useful to you?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DarthV:
Just downloaded the file, all it does is use adb.exe from a batch file. It's not something new and I'm pretty sure it's been posted before. This is only useful if your phone is booting into a functioning OS state.

You are right that for phones without working 3 button modes, it's how you would get into recovery.

My question is if I flash a rom and say it has superuser or rom manager. Will that app update like regulare apps I download from the market or is that something I would have to manually update because the market doesnt realy know its there?

I know if I download an app when an update comes out it promps me to update and so forth but when the app is already on the phone from the start what about then?

I am looking for legit answers here no speculations. I have already been speculating since I started flashing roms. The answers seems to be no, especialy since the new gmail app is out and I havnt been prompted to update.

Thanks, Thomas
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dglowe343:
A lot of the time you can just download them from the market and it will be linked from then on. Sometimes it won't install cuz the app is recognized as a system app. In that case you have a couple options I know of. If you have Titanium, you can either use Market Doctor to re-link the app to the market or if that doesn't work you can remove it with Titanium and just reinstall through the market. Root explorer or ADB are other options for removing system apps. Check in Settings/Applications to see if it will let you uninstall the app. If not, its a system app. Kind of all depends on how the dev put the rom together. Hope this helps.
