Me too. It's really annoying that big companies don't have a more thorough testing protocol. This issue is fixed in the JPK Froyo for I9000. Me and some others have been playing around with that build using the JI6 Cappy kernal, but are running in to other issues - for me, the big problem with that combo is the BT mic does not work very well. I rarely talk on my phone w/o using my BT headset. So, each build has a show stopper for me.

www.samfirmware.com

Click the download section, you can download Odin3, the firmware (use it as a PDA fille in Odin) and the 513 pit file.

Open Odin, select the firmware and pit file, enter download mode and flash. I personally recommend going back to JH6 with the original odin one click, then up to JF7
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
I do agree, generally. Especially, the BS replies that just reflect lazy people. However, the Q&A is a lonely place - no one seems to answer questions over there. However, I do think any real devs or pro scripters need to have a place to discuss with each other without having it polluted with a bunch of bs posts.

Hi, does this work for the Samsung Galaxy S? My carrier is Bell Mobility.

Just went from Cog 2.1.5 to Stock Froyo 2.2, loving it so far, even with TW and all this bloat it scored over 1000 on quadrant, cant wait til there is a noob friendly root/rom flashing process so I can put Cog 2.2 on here.

The only problem I have run into so far is that the facebook pictures are not sinking to the respective names anymore. Weird. Ill keep playing with it.

NVM, Im dumb, I just had it displayed the contacts on my SIM and of course it couldnt write the photos to the SIM card, copied them to phone and its working flawlessly
[Captivate Android Development] marcopolo1:
Well for those who have GPS problems like i had, here is something maybe it will work for you.. worked for me..

4 days ago I installed the froyo using this instructions:

1. Make sure your micro usb cable is connected to your pc, but NOT to your phone.

2. Run the .exe file ( odin program )

3. Turn off your phone.

4. While the phone is off, press both of the volume keys.

5. While pressing both of the volume keys, plug the micro usb cable to your phone.

Odin will recognize your phone... and your phone will be in dl mode.

Then, press start

Well i noticed huge improvements in some programs.. but my GPS never worked.. actually it was horrible.. Today, however i re-installed everything again. starting from zero..

Now my GPS works great! acutally beautifully ...

It only took 10 seconds to find my location and using GPS fix it found 10 satellites. Sometimes 11. The shots you are going to see bellow ( I don’t know what application to install to take screen pictures) I took it from my apartment, It only shows 7 sat but I am surrounded by 3 buildings.

the only thing it did not change is the TETHERING AND MOBILE AP.. with 2.1 worked great, now with 2.2 .. nothing.. it does not transfer data.

btw, because i am new, i cant post any pictures ..
[Captivate Android Development] Solstad:
Do you end up losing contacts from your sim card?
[Captivate Android Development] marcopolo1:
i don't save my contacts on my sim.. outlook and gmail .. so i have not noticed

I do this step by step but when It gets to downloading mode my computer pops up and says usb device not recognized ... I have downloaded the drivers from this site and other for my 32 bit windows xp ... someone please help me its driving me crazy
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
If whatever drivers you're using don't work, install Kies, its default installation includes the drivers. Also, try a different USB port. If you still have problems afterward, start re-reading the threads.
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Use Titanium to back up your stuff before re-flashing. Restore afterwards (do not restore the system data, just apps/app data). Keep in mind that some apps that work with 2.1 may not be fully compatible with 2.2. You may want to skip the system tweakers, s.a. task killers, etc...
[Captivate Android Development] ludrick:
I installed kies and used a diffrent port but still usb not recognized... what can be the problem??? I get odin3 to see my phone when i hook it up normally to usb.... but when try to go downloading mde my computer says usb not recognixed

I have never been able to get odin to work with my vista computer, but I have an XP computer which after installing samsung pc studio drivers (just google it) odin works perfect
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
So is it safe to say that odin works without many problems on xp than on vista or w7?
[Captivate Android Development] ludrick:
installed that also and still I cant get usb to recognize my device when I go into download mode... someone help
[Captivate Android Development] DeerChaser:
Here's what I experienced. If I update to JH7 thru Kies no button combo works. Update to JH7 thru att and the button combo works.
[Captivate Android Development] neptronix:
My Froyo experience.

Just for others that are thinking of updating but havent. Been running since the weekend, and 100% pleased. Ultra fast even without lagfix, but I installed Lagfix anyway. Rooted and sideloaded, no problems. GPS no problems. My only disapointment is the fact it is running so well, until some amazing change comes along, I may not be flashing for a while again. lol. Battery has been great as well. 100% satifisfied!
[Captivate Android Development] jlirgg:
Are you sure you are in download mode and not recovery mode? When I first started using odin I thought revoery mode was download mode and odin doesn't recognize the device in recovery mode.

Try this:

1. Start odin

2. with your phone on plug in usb cable to computer

3. turn off off and wait for battery charging screen to appear

4. once the battery charging screen is on the phone press vol up, vol down, and power button.

5. as soon as the screen goes black release the power button keep holding the volume buttons.

you should be in download mode, hopefully odin will recognize the device

it works for me hopefully it will work for you.

Revert Back to 2.1

I did the update and there is no improvement in the GPS, in fact it may have made it worse. A friend of mine did the update and his GPS works perfectly. Anyone have a link to the 2.1 software so I can put it back on my phone to return to ATT? I think its just a faulty gps chip.

some issues so far

Some issues i've noticed

firstly, i had been using task killer and juice defender. they both annihilated my battery. it is counter intuitive, but once i uninstalled both, battery life doubled.

turning off bluetooth get's some little notification saying something about "remote sim disabled"

also, i cannot send mms messages even after trying fixes listed. i can't edit or make a new APN to change user name and password.

otherwise, besides decreased performance switching around apps and such, rom has been great.

no decrease graphics performance as per neocore.

Exchange Calendar with 2.2

I upgraded my phone yesterday and now back to stock ROM (although having problems getting updates now). The main problem I had with 2.2 was getting to my work Exchange calendar. I just read on another thread there are two calendars in Froyo (personal and corporate). I don't remember seeing both, can someone that upgraded verify?
[Captivate Android Development] Maliberti:
OK,

After running this OS for a few days I am getting these problems.

Granted, none of it is bad enough to go back to 2.1 but noticeable annoyance.

1. Any time I have to enter anything where the keyboard pops up I get a lag in the second line.i.e.. User name - I can type it right away but to enter password I have to wait like 2-3 sec before the keyboard registers.

2. My Gmail is super fast but my exchange mail from work is slowed down quite a bit. It still pushes all my mail but when I open to read, it takes longer to load.

2A. My exchange calendar and contacts all synced and gets pushed right away but I lost all my contact pictures; the rest of the information is all there.

3. Live poker takes longer to load and when I bet it lags ( not a connection issue).

4. Some of the apps I had is now missing in the Android market, but I still see it on another phone running 2.1

Before i flashed i was runnin cog2.1.5 then flashed back to jf6 formatted sd then glashed froyo. Should i redo with a master clear?

Other than that everything is pretty great gps is great for me better than ever. It is a little laggy but whatever.

Non 3button build with OTA update fix

I hope this is a valid question that may help others also. I have one of the non-3 button builds that was corrected with the OTA update. My phone is rooted and OCLF'd. Is there anyone that has the same configuration that has done this update and still maintained 3button? I see alot of people telling others to return to Stock JF6 before doing this mod. If I do, I'm almost certain I will lose my three button. And it seems the only way to get it back is for an OTA update. Is or will that update be available to me again? Am I wrong here?

a few questions

I have read this whole thread and I didn't see these questions sorry if there repeats....

1. I upgraded to froyo via odin, My GPS is still the same no better no worse. I only had the phone for a few days and before froyo i would get a lock sometimes and sometimes not. Is there someway I can tweak the settings for a faster lock or a lock at all.

2. Will I still be able to get OTA updates with this leaked version of froyo installed? The reason I went ahead with the update is because I was getting the "no firmware" message and I couldn't get any support from att or samsung.

3. Is there a way I can do a factory reset and go back to 2.1 if I would want to? I am in my 30 day period.... I love the phone but just in case (probably sould of found this out before updating lol) I consider myself tech savy however this is all new to me. This is my first android phone or smartphone for that matter I couldn't fit it into my college budget. There is so much info and terms to take in and learn. I am trying....I have been reading forum every free second. Thanks in advance for any help!

1. I can confirm the Email bug. I just sent an email today to the office administrator and got a reply back saying that she did not get the info.

2. I'm having problems with a Motorola Bluetooth headset. It says 'pairing complete' but wont change the bluetooth icon to 'connected' in the phone and it wont work for calls. At some point I got it to work (repeated pairings) but that didn't last long.

Hope Samsung irons this stuff out before official release.
