I turned my calendar sync off and all is well.
[Fascinate Android Development] broncobiker:
Yeah I was going to say. Disable the calendar synch featurea for Google, Facebook, Exchange, and anything else you might have under accounts and you'll be fine. It FCs because the calendar app is being accessed but it isn't there.

I just went back to using Google Calendar online. That's what I did with my Eris cuz the stock calendar sucked so much. The Samsung calendar app was perfect. I can live without it though.
[Fascinate Android Development] jorge3687:
ok i will try that and report back
[Fascinate Android Development] jorge3687:
yes, it is fixed, i disabled the sync feature an d no more issues, thankz, im happy now

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shival:
So, I really want my contacts back and Samsung Kies does not support the 2.2 UCJI6 ROM captivate, what should I do?

Open to suggestions, I have a couple theories myself...

Can I flash back to the backup I created with clockwork mod before I flashed 2.2 and then sync the contacts from Kies and then to google?

Or is there a program or APP that can take the .SPB Backup file of contacts created by Kies and transfer them to my phone?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shival:
Solved.

I figured it out!

Well, I have KIES save the contacts to the VCard format into a folder and then put that folder on the External SD Card.

After that, I went into contacts, menu, import/export, and then imported those Vcards files.

Sad thing is that they are missing their categories but that is way better than not having them at all.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tbong777:
One thing I noticed about this ROm is I cannot select contacts to appear on the list They ALL do..from the SIM, Phone and Google. Even though there is a display options i can select phone only and ALL appear so I deleted SIM and PHone and just use Google Contacts. Otherwise I love the new ROM;

From /efs/nv.log -

Sat Oct 2 10:31:40 2010: secondary NV built.

Sat Oct 2 10:31:42 2010: Plain text NCK deleted.

Samsung have wised up. Can't find the NCK code in nv_data.bin any longer.

The I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low.exe one-click odin method wipes everything, including /efs I would think - Not sure though. I was SIM unlocked before upgrading and I just checked and still SIM unlocked.

Not sure if -

1) The old /efs data + unlocked nv_data.bin were kept and "upgraded"

or

2) The nv_data.bin within I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low.exe is factory SIM unlocked

Either way - I'm good :-)
[Captivate Android Development] k2snowboards88:
Thanks for that. I'll have to get my unlock code before updating.
[Captivate Android Development] j1mb34m:
Good idea posting this. I read an article a few weeks ago that said they were going to do that, and someone yesterday was saying how he was unable to unlock his phone after upgrading. Like you, I'm good though--have the digits saved safely on my pc.

This info should be included somewhere. Up at the top, like, "warning, you will be unable to unlock your phone if you upgrade to 2.2, so be sure to do that first!"
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
not really development related... people have been told time and time again since the JPC fiasco to backup their EFS folder. if they haven't, well, that's their own fault.
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
can you restore a efs folder from eclair and restore it to froyo?
[Captivate Android Development] netnerd:
why would any1 need to unlock this phone.

this cappy clone (galaxy S) is available in almost all the wireless carriers!
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
travel and the fact that the carrier restricts that
[Captivate Android Development] FireRaider:
and for those getting refurbished exchanges?

I too am interested in hearing if reverting back to an earlier version will let me find the SIM unlock code.

I unlocked and saved the code for my current (random shutdown plagued) phone.

But I am expecting a new (refurbished) phone in the next few days. Any ideas if I will be able to unlock it to use my TMobile card also? Or have I once again been struck down by the fickle finger of fate?
[Captivate Android Development] foxbat121:
Those files are unique for each phone. Hence they are not included in firmware. Once it is moved, it will be very difficult to get back.

However, don't expect AT&T to give you a phone with anything other than JF6. It will be a few more months before they load JH7 to them.
[Captivate Android Development] foxbat121:
If you travel outside of US, you don't have to pay AT&T over $2/min (average)for each call.
[Captivate Android Development] ardyer:
Just run the un-locker script before applying the OTA update to jf7 on the new one and you should be good.
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
really can anyone verify this
[Captivate Android Development] USHERROB:
once you upgrade the firmware, the file is gone...reverting back to stock and trying to find the code does not work, iv tested :/
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
ok good.

does backing up the efs folder on a lodversion and then restoring it in froyo work?
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
And this phone has the nicest design of all of them.....
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
reverting to stock via Odin3 one click does not restore it? I have not tried, but find that surprising.
[Captivate Android Development] LongDono:
Why unlock? My provider (Rogers) still hasn't launched the phone... and the Captivate is the sexiest design, IMHO.

When I flashed to JH7 a while ago, I was prompted for the unlock code again. I had to restore the ROM backup in order to get the code again. When I flashed back to JH7, it oddly no longer asked to be unlocked.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Soooo for you guys panicking that the unlock codes have been removed... have you tried to use the backups of the nv_data.bin files to pull the unlock code? Just do a ls -l -a in the /efs directory and you should find them there. Either that or I have them because of all the froyo shuffling I've done in the past...
[Captivate Android Development] schahr01:
I am assuming that nv_data.bin is just an on disk shadow of the non-volatile (NV) RAM associated with the modem. If you successfully unlocked the phone before going to a recent build where /efs/nv_data.bin is scrubbed it shouldn't matter - The unlock is already registered in NV RAM...

That's why I wasn't prompted for the unlock code after flashing the JI6 one-click.

That's what I have deduced and it seems logical... at least to me :-D
[Captivate Android Development] tytdfn:
Wow that sucks for me :/ should have read more before flashing froyo. Oh well. Ill just wait till my contract is up before I escape the clutches of att

Yay no more fc
[Captivate Android Development] mostyle:
There IS a file there.. I already had previously generated my unlock code before trying the OTA or Froyo.. but I popped in a Tmobile sim today and it asked me for the unlock code. Tried the one I found from the text file generated by the market app but no go. Tried twice and as thinking a third would lock the device and I feared that since the sim unlock wasn't working that the unfreeze probably wouldn't either.

Is there a way to truly revert the device or am I stuck?
[Captivate Android Development] killer23d:
I had mine unlocked when I had JF6 on it.

Just upgraded to JI6 via Cognitition and I didn't see any prompts. I have been using my Fido SIM and T-Mobile SIM on it.
[Captivate Android Development] USHERROB:
nope, because it formats the files :/
[Captivate Android Development] ag4vr:
Mine was unlocked too before upgrading

I also had the phone unlocked under 2.1. After flashing Froyo the code that I used under 2.1 didn't work--at least at first.

I tried a SIMple Mobile SIM first in order to enter the unlock code. I tried to enter it twice and the code was rejected both times.

Then I tried a Tmo Prepaid SIM. The phone accepted the SIM without me entering an unlock code. Weird.
[Captivate Android Development] jaredc74:
I had previously downloaded the app from the market and saved the numbers that it generated. Never unlocked the phone since I didn't have an off-carrier sim card. I flashed the 2.2 update the day after it came out. I tried to run the app again and it told me no codes found. I found the original numbers that were pulled off and tried unlocking the phone today with a SIM card a friend had from Norway. Entered the number in and it unlocked on the first try.
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
Yeah, the number will be the same, it is just no longer accessible via the same method post-JH7
[Captivate Android Development] FireRaider:
I received my replacement Captivate today and its running the JF6 version.

The SIM unlocker pulled the two codes just fine.

Now to update to JI6.

And pray the random shutdown 'feature' is gone forever.
[Captivate Android Development] Jeepsdaddy:
What BS? I hope some figures this one out what about buying one?

OK so I fell into the trap of the unlocking no possible after update.

Two questions:

1. What are the chances someone will figure this one out to unlock it once again?

2. Is I buying it it from one of those unlocking services always an option?
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
1. There is always a chance - but how long will it take, no one knows.

2. It should be, you can try. AT&T will give out the codes after 90 days, so others should be able to get them.

The files are still there under JH7 (2.1 update) - but the string has changed. I wonder if JH6 was put back (Odin3 one click stock firmware) - if the original file format with unlock code would be there. The code may be different - but is it possible to get it?

Has anyone actually tried grabbing the code again under JH6?
[Captivate Android Development] foxbat121:
When Captivate first released back in July, it was discovered that no online SIM unlocking service can actually unlock the Captivate at that time and AT&T will not give out the code like they usually do (you have to wait for 10-month exclusivity period to expire).

Not sure if it is still true but haven't heard anything otherwise.

What JH6? Never heard of it :)

From what I read that the change in JH7 is merely the permission to the file, not the content of the file.
[Captivate Android Development] justmde:
I just noticed that cog beta 3 has something called blm unlock. Will that help?
[Captivate Android Development] Unhelpful:
No, that has nothing to do with carrier/sim lock.
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
Damn - i keep getting the FGHI all mixed up... JF6 was the stock....

[Captivate Android Development] Jeepsdaddy:
Would someone please go to my post

Captivate Froyo Issues .....

I may have found the solution and need someone to test it.

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
You didn't find a solution for a number that is not there. The Grep command in your "fix" grabs an 8 digit string. It does the same thing all the unlock tools did.

If you find a way to get unlock to work when the file has FFFFFFFF where the number was - then you found a fix.
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
According to this post on the Cyanogen forums:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/7504-odin-flash-loses-your-unlockfreeze-code/

flashing with Odin can remove the unlock code from the bml3 file - mine only has FFFFFFFF as does my nv-data.bin file. This appears to be why i can't input my unlock code (it was unlocked before).

Has anyone else flashed an i9000 2.1 ROM and not had this happen? I don't think odin3 one-click would do it, but I wonder if this is a side effect of flashing an i9000 ROM?

There are some users with other models reporting the same issue.

Any developers have any more information?
[Captivate Android Development] PowerPC:
I used to flash a asian version of the i9000 2.1 firmware. My captivate was unlocked and been doing odin JF6 all the time back and forth w/o any issue with unlock.

After flashing asian version of rom and went back to JF6 again (with one click odin). I no longer get the unlock code with the one click unlock app. Also, my phone is locked again if pressing *#7465625#.

To me, if I remember correctly, it seems I lost all files under /efs. Therefore, I'm not able to get the code.

What I did at that time was to do master clear from JF6 one click odin. After that, all files "nv*.bin" came back to /efs folder and once again, I can unlock my phone.

Usually, Odin doesn't give any issue to remain unlocked. Even after I upgrade to JI6 now.
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
Nope - reverting to stock JF6 doesn't fix it. So there is no way to get the phone back to 100% stock?

Anyone have a solution? I did a master clear and then Odin one-click. Sitting at JF6 hopefully someone has some idea. Seems strange that we have no external fix. There should be a way to force new software onto the phone and get it to rebuild any system file - even one based on the IMEI as that is read from a chip.
[Captivate Android Development] michael.seltzer:
I updated to froyo but I first used clockworkmod to make a nandroid backup of 2.1. Will that replace the /efs folder and I can get my unlock code again? I forgot to write it down... is there a chance I may be asked for it again?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] tpancoast:
Yeah, I was going to ask that too. Is the efs folder backed up by Nandroid? I've got the phone the way I want it and would prefer to avoid restoring the backup just to find out.
[Captivate Android Development] xetrev:
i just went through all the imgaes on my nandroid backup and it is not backed up.

[Captivate Android Development] xetrev:
when clockwork works for froyo you can nandroid backup your phone then restore to earlier version and re-run the unlocker. Backup /efs and then restore your froyo and replace the files.
[Captivate Android Development] michael.seltzer:
Well nandroid doesn't back up the /efs folder from what I've seen from my extracted images. Has anyone tried the changing the unlock code as a method?
[Captivate Android Development] tytdfn:
Question: has anyone asked att if their willing to release individual unlock codes? Like just ask support for one because your going on a trip to hawaii for example ;)

Yay no more fc
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
They will...
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
I called - for now they say no they won't as they have an exclusive arrangement... i will see how escalating goes, but I will probably tackle hacking the nv_data.bin before then.
[Captivate Android Development] static416:
I have the same problem. I installed Cognition 2.2 before checking for the unlock. It wiped out the necessary file during the flash. And for me the unlock is essential, I'm moving back to Canada in a few months.

This seems to be some sort of semi-automated utility for regenerating the unlock code: ***p://forum.frandroid.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=27019

But being as it's translated from French I'm a little hesitant to try it.
[Captivate Android Development] alphadog00:
helroz is posting in the i9000 forums (same name as french site) - maybe PM him.
[Captivate Android Development] static416:
My solution was to go back to the store and swap for another fully stock phone. $35 restocking fee, but I definitely need the unlock.
[Captivate Android Development] abaybas:
Oh no. I got a new phone with JFD and just updated to JI6 without backing up.

Will unlock codes work if I buy one?
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I had posted in another thread (I believe the original JI6 Froyo thread) about how my phone was still unlocked after flashing to JI6. Several people were saying that flashing the new firmware would relock an unlocked phone and that it would delete the file containing the unlock code. Someone suggested that maybe the reason mine remained unlocked was because I didn't do a master clear before flashing. Yesterday, I did a master clear, flashed back to JF6 using Odin one-click, then flashed Cognition 2.2 Beta 6 using Odin. Even through all of that, my phone is still unlocked. I can verify this using the *#7465625# code. It says "Personalizatiob Status" (yes, typo and all), and below that it has "Network Lock [OFF]", "Network Subset Lock [OFF]", "SP Lock [OFF]", and "CP Lock [OFF]". I guess the big question here is, for those of you who have unlocked your phones, have you had the same results?
[Captivate Android Development] xetrev:
mine says network lock off, network subset lock off, sp lock off, cp lock off
[Captivate Android Development] Jeepsdaddy:
Fixed the problem....

Just went ahead and for a warranty replacement.... Did all the backing up and unlocking before switching to froyo...

Funny thing is...this time when I flashed froyo using odin 3 and not odin one click the sgs unlock tool app still worked....
[Captivate Android Development] bird333:
Did the same as you. Mine is still unlocked.
[Captivate Android Development] tytdfn:
Lol your not gonna like this but can you make like a one click program for that?

Yay no more fc

Hello All I just did the one click odin to Froyo and as I was getting to put my apps on my phone, I was unable to redownload ESPN Fantasy Football, when I search for it I cannot locate it and when I try a bar code scan still no luck..... Was this the update or was it app taken down anybody know?

Update. When I go to the ESPN Mobile webpage and click on the link that says to download "Fantasy Football application for Android 2.2 click here to download" When I click the market pops up and says "The requested Item could not be found" My buddy has a Android phone with 2.2 and he can search and find the application... what do you think the reason for this is????
[Captivate General] sdickinson@ucicomm.com:
The same thing is happening on my phone running the leaked Froyo on the Captivate.
[Fascinate Android Development] GoogleAndroid:
I compiled this for someone at DroidForums and I figured I would post it here.

In order to complete all of these steps, you will need:

ROM Manager

Titanium Backup Pro

Root Explorer

SetCPU

Odin v1.3

A file manager like Astro to install the APKs.

SetCPU can be downloaded here for free: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=505419

It can also be bought from the Market. The others also need to be purchased or downloaded.

In order to root, follow the instructions here: http://forum.androidcentral.com/verizon-fascinate-rooting-roms-hacks/33899-how-root.html

Here is a link for Mac users: http://forum.androidcentral.com/ver...s/34188-rooting-using-mac-video-tutorial.html

ClockworkMod Recovery Installation instructions are here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=942021 You can also flash the new recovery with Rom Manager, but for now, I recommend the recovery in the link.

At this point, you should be rooted with CWM Recovery. Now, it's time to install Froyo.

Follow the link here, and you will find Odin files for quickly installing EB01: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...roms-w-root-new-clockwork-updated-2-11-a.html

NOTE: You will need to wipe when you go from 2.1 to 2.2. Be sure to back up everything before the upgrade.

Now, you will need a rom. I would recommend SuperClean by Adrynalyne: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=910921 It includes a kernel and there are Voodoo and NonVoodoo versions. This will remove all bloatware, including TouchWiz and Bing. However, the browser will still search with Bing. Then, use the themes sub-forum to find a theme.

You can use ROM Manager-Download-sonofskywalker3 to find all sorts of options. Stock apps, de-Binged browsers, new boot animations, widgets, etc. Anything you didn't want removed can be downloaded there.

If you need to return to stock, you'll need to use Odin. Ask any questions in this thread and I will do my best to answer them. You can also post a thread on XDA(make sure it's in the right section!), or visit the IRC at: webchat.freenode.net channel: #samsung-fascinate
