JI6 has officially been released for the vibrant according to Samsungs twitter page :-)

http://twitter.com/#!/GalaxySsupport/status/26631148177
[Vibrant Android Development] trilaxx:
An official update, that cant be right... no.... i dont believe it.

Now how long to 2.2... ohh well get it when i get it.

Thanks for the post.
[Vibrant Android Development] Lavundra21:
Since we rooted will the update still come automatically?
[Vibrant Android Development] Wykedx:
what exactly is this update?
[Vibrant Android Development] lotherius:
But... I already HAVE JI6..... *sigh*...

I want my Gingerbread.
[Vibrant Android Development] jalsing:
I knew once I flashed a non-stock ROM this would happen..barely been two days..
[Vibrant Android Development] kponti:
Hopefully the developwers here can pull this update and make sure its the same one we are getting with the leaked version
[Vibrant Android Development] mentalex2:
You will receive the update if you're rooted, as long as you're running stock kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] westward:
I use stock unlocked Vibrant in Ukraine, with SIM from ukraininan carrier U'tel. Can anybody tell me, does my Vibrant receive this official update wia OTA or I need manually update firmware?
[Vibrant Android Development] saylas:
I have stock Vibrant firmware, but when I go to "Software update" there is only the sign "No firmware", it seems it doesn't even send any request, should i just wait for the message?
[Vibrant Android Development] blackerwater:
The update started . That means it will roll out in phases to people. Not all at once

Sent from my vibrant
[Vibrant Android Development] trilaxx:
Yes just wait, they roll the update out in "packs" or small groups at a time so they dont over load things. everyone will get the update on the vibrant eventually.
[Vibrant Android Development] jdanisevich:
Or you could flash yourself if you're impatient since we've had it half a week already.
[Vibrant Android Development] camalot:
I flashed it and I got stuck at the Vibrant screen. Had to do a nandroid restore. I was rooted + Fascinate / Epic / Stock lock screen
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
any lag fix installed?
[Vibrant Android Development] camalot:
The only other changes I did were the GPS fix from JI2 and the mobileAP mod, forgot about those two.
[Vibrant Android Development] smashpunks:
so, once again you did no LAG FIX, i.e. voodoo? If not I got no clue..

Oh you said gps and mobile ap were the only others.. HMMMM. Not sure.
[Vibrant Android Development] eugene373:
The problem is the kernel.. Nandroid does not backup or restore the Kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] camalot:
So i need to do an ODIN flash? Any opinion what I should flash then? Missing my ADP1 now :)
[Vibrant Android Development] frankencat:
If this is the same as the leaked JI6 then I am sticking with the JFD + Jac's OC kernel + JI2 GPS fix. My phone is working great. I had all kinds of issues when I flashed the JI6 leak and it eventually put my phone into a soft brick and I had to flash back to stock with ODIN to get back. I had downgraded to stock kernel and no lag fixes before I updated.
[Vibrant Android Development] spiz516:
Well I just got done installing mine... the GPS better work flawlessly.
[Vibrant Android Development] dcam1075:
Could someone who has received the update run Quadrant and see what kind of score you get. I am curious to see if the JI6 update addressed the lag issue!
[Vibrant Android Development] tissimo:
I hear its minimized, but it won't produce some artificial high score in quadrant.

Sent from my SGS Vibrant.
[Vibrant Android Development] blackoakx22:
correct i am running Bionix 1.6 and my build number shows up as ECLAIR.UVJI6
[Vibrant Android Development] spiz516:
Updated to ECLAIR.UVJI6, running completely stock.

Quadrant score is 894.

That being said, I don't notice too much lag... but then again, I don't use those stupid Samsung widgets.
[Vibrant Android Development] Kgirl:
Did anyone that ran the Kies update to JI5 get the OTA update?
[Vibrant Android Development] ninor:
I just installed the OTA update and I'm stick on Vibrant screen.

I have unlocked stock phone with no custom roms but I did remove some T-Mobile bloatware, how do I fix my phone?
[Vibrant Android Development] remixfa:
i had the same issue this morning. I accidentally clicked update without removing lag fixes (i was barely awake!!).

anyways, this is what got me alive again.

Download the samsung USB drivers if u havent already

Download ODIN 1.3 if you havent already

Download and follow the instructions for Eugene's 2.2 unbrickable rom.

when thats running...

Download STOCK 2.1 vibrant software and follow instructions.

Boom, unrooted, back to factory Vibrant.

Things that helped me:

when ur in recovery, WIPE back to stock.

Take your Sim card.

Now im just trying to find the final J16 stock build, since its back to saying "no update" again :(

Anyone know if we should put lagfix back on J16?
[Vibrant Android Development] dcam1075:
Excellent, just what I was looking for thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] sader2202:
Hsve anyone from Brooklyn New York or any place in New York received the update, I'm still waiting.
[Vibrant Android Development] grabiarz:
+1 still waiting in nyc :(
[Vibrant Android Development] rhcp011235:
Can someone post the update from the cache dir before applying it.

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] davidtanis:
I dont have data will i still get it?:confused:
[Vibrant Android Development] holysmokesbatty:
I appear to be having some issues.

Reflashed stock kernel, removed framework mods (lockscreen selector/battery mod),

Removed lagfix, yadda, yadda, yadda.

When I run the update it goes through the download, reboot, starts running through the update, pauses for a few minutes at 50%, bumps up like it's going to finish, then says "Update is failed", reboot and gets stuck on a bootloop at the Vibrant screen.

Luckily, I can still adb reboot into recovery, run clockwork and nandroid back, but after I nandroid I also have to reflash the kernel again, or else I get the same bootloop. I suppose that a nandroid doesn't store/restore the kernel though.

Any thoughs would be helpful here. Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] kcbboy:
Odin back to 100% stock 2.1 JFD rom
[Vibrant Android Development] lexluthor:
Long Island and got it, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't roll out by location anyhow.
[Vibrant Android Development] holysmokesbatty:
I'm trying to avoid having to reinstall all my apps. :-/

Unless you've got an Odin .tar/.pit setup that doesn't wipe data, I'd rather avoid that path.
[Vibrant Android Development] velocd:
How did you get this phone without data? And if you do not have then you may not receive and OTA. I don't know how tmo handles phone updates via OTA without data.
[Vibrant Android Development] lorddart:
Maybe I don't understand of there's much difficulty to this but why has this request been completely ignored, someone who has received this update should seriously look into hitting everyone else up with it. It only takes one person to save tons of people having to wait another three weeks guys come on...
[Vibrant Android Development] grabiarz:
I just created a activity shortcut through Launcher Pro to Device Manager service and I see some interesting settings and possibly where the phone will pull the update from. Maybe we could manually pull the update leveraging the stuff that's in there

I see settings for username and password and a way to force check if an update is available. I wonder if usernames are set individually per person or per group (as in one user per group that's going to get updated now)

I tried force checking but nothing is available for me now. I'm running 100% stock not even rooted.
[Vibrant Android Development] 12paq:
an update.zip yet?

um please?

edit: sorry can't delete post! sorry for the double.
[Vibrant Android Development] 12paq:
an update .zip?

um please?

thats interesting...
[Vibrant Android Development] rogerchew:
maybe if you guys showed people how to get the update.zip extracted after updating people will be more inclined to give it.
[Vibrant Android Development] skeeterou:
I got the update...

I'm in California but have an Oklahoma number and it pushed the update to me last night. I was running Bionix 1.3 stock kernel. I went ahead and updated. It pulled the update no problem, but at the end (100% complete) it said update failed and rebooted my phone. It then got stuck at the Samsung Vibrant screen. I rebooted multiple times and same thing. I then went into recovery mode and reflashed Bionix 1.3 and then did a nandroid restore through ROM manager. It worked! I checked the baseband and it says I am running:

Firmware: 2.1-update1

Baseband: T959UVJI6

Kernel: 2.6.29

Build: Bionix

Everything seems much snappier and faster. I have 3G coverage now in my house where I didn't before. GPS is working great.

I'm kind of a newb, so I'm not sure if this will help anyone out. Just wanted to share my experience.
[Vibrant Android Development] StefanB86:
Im running Bionix 1.4, got the update but i have postpone it till later... I'm still learning about android, but if you tell me what you need and how to do it, i have no problem in helping you out.
[Vibrant Android Development] LiquidGabe:
I've got the update message but don't plan on running it any time soon because JAC/voodoo is great and my battery lasts forever.

If I knew where the file was I'd be happy to post it.
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Edit: ya as I look more into the rar i can tell its my old rom sorry :(
[Vibrant Android Development] jumaaneface:
Build prop says jdf
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Ya it is sorry, the update didnt flash
[Vibrant Android Development] velocd:
Wouldn't this be correct since it was pulled prior to the update?
[Vibrant Android Development] jslee1020:
Head on over to the GENERAL section of the vibrant forum.

Apparently on samfirmware.com the OTA JI6 is up for download.

People have confirmed it as the OTA and not the leaked firmware ver.
[Vibrant Android Development] hey123:
so if i have ryan za one click lag fix + root on stock rom do i have to disable the lag fix before i update if not i will brick?? thanks for the help
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
I'm using root explorer to remove my bloat ware and it keeps coming back anyone else have this prob I've always removed it with root explorer but it seems tmo may have done something here.
[Vibrant Android Development] rockyglass376:
JI6 OTA - Freezes the lock screen on touchwiz

I received the OTA for JI6 today, along with my son on his Vibrant. Both of us are experiencing problems with the lock-swipe on the home screen. When the hit the power button to wake up the screen, you have to swipe the lock icon on the bottom. Swiping across this numerous times will not unlock the phone. You have to dim the screen with the power button, then back on-- swipe again. Thanks Samsung for this worthless OTA. We had no problems before this.
[Vibrant Android Development] heygrl:
The lock screen requires more sweep, just sweep from the bottom to the top or all the way from one side to the other.. nothing wrong with the lock screen.
[Vibrant Android Development] onthecouchagain:
So has anybody who had flashed JI5 (either via KIES or Odin) gotten the JI6 OTA yet? And if so, can you please report on if there are any issues?

I ask because when flashing JI6 (via Odin) over JI5, it caused a few problems, including the return of lag. Please talk about the update experience. Did it update fine, and how it performs.
[Vibrant Android Development] codywilliams722:
I still haven't got the ota update does anybody when I will receive it.
[Vibrant Android Development] tissimo:
Still need this? I got the notification a few hours ago and postponed it for now. How would I do this, just adb pull cache dir?
[Vibrant Android Development] kteemusic:
J16 WORKS

Head over to the general section there is a samware and it is official, i downloaded and tested , i have a new task manager, hq button on youtube, gps does work now..im getting like 9 satellites easy...media hub works, i undid ryanza lag fix and unrooted before hand then ODIN it in.....its great..
[Vibrant Android Development] sakojpa:
Upgraded firmware to JI6, but couldn't get the root with standart means. It writes that the root was got and root explorer can pass into any system folder, but that's strange. I delete a file, it's beeing deleted but after you enter the folder again the file is still there. It happens only on JI6. Who knows what to do with this?
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
Download busybox from the market and run it,then delete the files I had to figure this out last night and it works.
[Vibrant Android Development] sakojpa:
What's the difference in getting root on JI4 and JI6? Why does it delete in JI4 and doesn't work in JI6?

P.S> Isn't busybox in standart oclf?
[Vibrant Android Development] tjsynkral:
Has anyone else lost the brightness adjustment from the notification bar?

Edit: Can't mount USB anymore either. Did I screw it up?
[Vibrant Android Development] sader2202:
Does anyone know if oneclick root or oneclick lag fix still works on jl6? Please tell me.
[Vibrant Android Development] 12paq:
OCLF root works no problem. Not tired lag fix, I undid it before Odin Ji6. Have seen no lag yet, quadrant is 920, but the device has less lag then with stock and OCLF 2.0.

Swipe to unlock is the same. Many nice improvements. Need to get mobile ap up, I believe its ver. specific, my stock ver. is not working.

Thanks Devs for the Odin advice and file!
[Vibrant Android Development] AustinKnight45:
I dont know I just flashed the root.zip to root ji6 then tried to delete the bloat ware and found that it wouldn't work until I installed busybox.
[Vibrant Android Development] lqaddict:
Works fine here - flashed JI6 via ODIN last night.
[Vibrant Android Development] kboater:
go to settings >applications > usb settings and change to ask on connection or mass storage.

same happened to me. this fixes it
[Vibrant Android Development] sader2202:
This ota update is taking forever for me. Any other options.
[Vibrant Android Development] the3dman:
There is a newer root explorer that works. There was a problem with the older one. The new one is 2.12.3
[Vibrant Android Development] tjsynkral:
I figured this part out but here is the problem.

If I set it to ask me I get the popup and choose mass storage, and then it shows up with the notification mount option like normal.

If I choose mass storage, it alternates between not showing up in notification at all or saying "USB Connected" but without the also important "Click here to mount" option. I'm forced to leave it on the popup even though I won't be using the other choices anytime soon.
[Vibrant Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Is there an official list as to what is included/fixed in this OTA anywhere? Can't seem to find one anywhere. Been googling for the past hour. Thanks in advance.
[Vibrant Android Development] tjsynkral:
From the other stock JI6 post:

-GPS, SGPA, SUPL

-Exchange inbox

-Contacts Sync

-The Sims 3 10th Anniversary Edition ( Didn't see this on mine)

-Battery indicator

-Calendar alert chime

-New Services: Samsung Media Hub

-40+ bug fixes, UI changes and updates.​

My own experience has been that the GPS improvements are nothing to write home about but I get 3G at work reliably now and on JFD and on my G1 I had about a 50% chance of getting any data connection at all... so the radio is a huge improvement.

Edit: Flash Lite is fixed and doesn't crash the browser anymore. But about:debug menu still crashes the browser on load until you wipe the data in the settings menu.
[Vibrant Android Development] bbuchacher:
I dont know why this hasnt been said yet but will someone please do the following,

After you recieve notification that it is connecting to server to download your OTA get log cat up or get ddms up and get the url that the phone is downloading from, then after you get the notification that your Update is ready, connect your phone to adb and pull the cache

adb pull cache

you should now have the ota and upload please for others :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Please do this so we won't have to wait longer than necessary.
[Vibrant Android Development] etiennepb:
I9000m jh2

Don't know how this relates but I thought I'd post some of the similarities/differences in the builds. Obviously I'm running JH2 on the international version of the phone. The phone came stock with Mobile AP, Task Man w/widget and many of the other improvements posted in this thread. I also had to fool around with the settings in "About Phone" to get it to read as a removable disk. I did notice that at times I had to unplug and replug the cable for the mount option to appear in the pulldown menu. On a side note to get the disk to pop upon the desktop on my mac I had to enable USB debugging. Also GPS was not working out of the box. I downloaded and installed files pulled from another update, changed some GPS settings and it got things working to a point. I get a lock anywhere between 10 and 30 secs but only find about 8 sats tops with locked sats fluctuating between 2 and 4. Unfortunately this wreaks havoc on the NAV app when accuracy jumps between 10 and 30 meters. Initially I figure the GPS issues were software based but due to varied results from a single update I'm a little worried it might be H/W based. Anyways, just felt like chiming in.

Peace,

Etienne

Uploading to megaupload now, was able to rip it from Samsung Kies

www dot megaupload dot com/?d=R613UQP3
[Vibrant Android Development] sumasage:
I know how to run the adb but how do you run the log cat or ddms? My phone is not getting the update yet but just thought i ask for instruction for when it does. I'm surprised that no one able to capture the OTA update after so many days.

I didnt see your original post. What did you ripped from Kies? Offical JI6?
[Vibrant Android Development] bbuchacher:
ddms is a part of the android sdk, you need a java jdk enviroment setup on your computer logcat i believe is in market and is self explanitory
[Vibrant Android Development] sader2202:
Does anyone know if oneclick lag fix works on the ji6 ota update?
[Vibrant Android Development] bbuchacher:
so i think the test will be to flash this and see if we can see apps like fandango? im downloading but am at work and have a terrible internet connection someone with a faster one want to try?
[Vibrant Android Development] bbuchacher:
Ok flashed this and I can see fandango, what other apps were not showing up?
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
HAs anyone tried this? This the official JI6? I am just getting tired of waiting for the OTA.
[Vibrant Android Development] bbuchacher:
Yes I tried it, so far no issues and I can see all the apps others couldnt.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
So the base/kernal/build numbers are all what they are supposed to be? Also, how would I go about applying the update.

thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] bbuchacher:
Yup and u flash it thru odin
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
Cool, trying it now. Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] sumasage:
Following are apps reported from another thread

Assasins Creed

Google Earth

House M.D. game

let me know if it show up for you.
[Vibrant Android Development] techbeck:
was there always a Task Manager program?

And does applying hte JI6 update make hte phone non rooted?
[Vibrant Android Development] ga3lopez:
what if i only rooted my samsung vibrant and havent messed around with it as in i havent installed no custom roms or nothing. can i update like that.?
[Vibrant Android Development] gaore:
Thanks for the info.
[Vibrant Android Development] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
Thanks for the info, now just time for it to show up. I know I could flash the posted zip, but throughout all my android phones, I've never actually went through the process of receiving an OTA and applying it "normally" so I decided to wait it out this time, for s & g. Kinda like surprise Christmas, checking my phone ever so often to see if it showed up! lol

By the way, what does it mean by Battery Indicator?
[Vibrant Android Development] layzer253:
Yeah, ripped it from Kies
[Vibrant Android Development] iTylerA:
Quick question: I have a stock ROM but am using Jac's kernel w/ voodoo. I disabled the voodoo, will I be able to use the OTA JI6 update, or will I need to reflash the stock kernel as well?
[Vibrant Android Development] ski309:
From the site:
[Vibrant Android Development] yincrash:
is the update zip file in the kies mini download itself, or does kies mini pull it from another site? if it does pull from another site, i assume it's pulling from google? can someone check and post the link if that is the case?

better than downloading a random rapidshare link (no offense) :(
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
What are you taking about.... Have you tried Kies Mini
[Vibrant Android Development] yincrash:
i am not using a windows machine and cannot use kies mini. i was just guessing that kies mini uses the same update file that you would get if you received it OTA and just installed it using its own app. which would mean that it would either include the update file or download the update file when it detected your phone model.
[Vibrant Android Development] Lakers3408:
Its specifically made for the Vibrant and ONLY for the Vibrant, yes it detects your current firmware and downloads and installs the OTA official Tmobile firmware update.
[Vibrant Android Development] yincrash:
so then someone should be able to monitor their http traffic and see what url it is downloading the update from and post the url here.
[Vibrant Android Development] killermaze:
Vibrant won't load -

After receiving the OTA update notification, i completed the update but now the vibrant will not load into the home screen. When I press the power button, the vibrant samsung screen appears and frozen.

I was not using any custom roms or lag fix. just had the phone rooted before I started the process.

Anyway to fix this?
[Vibrant Android Development] yincrash:
this is the url kies mini downloads the firmware from

http://fus.samsungmobile.com/Phone_...T959TMBJI6_T959UVJI6_T959UVJI6_UV_TMB.zip.enc

for my phone (which was on JFD)

it's encrypted though, and i'm not sure with what method.
[Vibrant Android Development] Minker17:
Aside from using Odin and having to wipe, anyone figured out a solution to the unrecognized device error on stock rooted?
[Vibrant Android Development] terrigan:
My friend got it in the office yesterday afternoon. Vibrant did not boot past logo after the OTA update. Brought it home and flashed the stock JI6 found here.

Edit: Stock lockscreen for JI6 from the Vibrant Bible links don't seem to work. Wonder why.
[Vibrant Android Development] iTylerA:
Well I tried the OTA update which failed, I'm assuming due to my modified kernel. So i flashed the JI6 via Odin and it runs fine.

Except, one of my apps is bo longer working. It's an app that use streaming video. The thumbnails for each video come up fine, but every time I go to play a video, it days it cannot be played. EVERY video. Is that due to the build, our has something happened to tunee app itself?
[Vibrant Android Development] millerliteguy:
Mini Kies keeps freezing after I connect my phone

I am trying to update my Vibrant and finally got all the drivers installed and working and now I get this error after I pug in my device "MiniApplication Launcher has stopped working" then I'm forced to close it...Help!!!

I'm on Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
[Vibrant Android Development] trunkstar1:
Is the issue where you need to just turn USB debugging on?
