No need for trash talking, let the numbers do the talking =D

Although there is an iphone fan boy in my Chemistry class that deserves it lol.

I doubt we'll see 2Ghz, but who am I to say we cant?
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wiimonkey9:
I notice the benefit from 1ghz to 1.4ghz for certain apps, especially emulators like psx4droid. There is a big difference in sound and overall smoothness.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] add119:
Word u should go show off the speed that your phone is at. Dont tell him that your rooted lolz
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] add119:
I wouldnt be surprise that the g2 get that speed. Remember the old g1 got to 825mhz and original droid got up to 1.4 ghz from it 600mhz cortex processor.

It very possible that the g2 will be at least 1.7 to 1.8 ghz.
[Captivate General] malicenfz:
I just got a text saying there is gonna be an update to my phone and to press ok when prompted but nothing so far
[Captivate General] skinien:
What Baseband version are you running?

Menu -> Settings -> About phone
[Captivate General] itsjustaphone:
I received the same message a few minutes ago.

Firmware Version : 2.2

Baseband version: 1897UCJI6

Cognition 2.2Beta6
[Captivate General] gathrottle:
It's there but mine stopped half way through the update. Will have to wait until tomorrow to try again, unless someone knows where the update is downloaded to.
[Captivate General] gormander:
Maybe you can do the update via Kies software instead of waiting 24 hours?
[Captivate General] bookofjoshua:
I got the text too, I'm running cognition 2.3b3
[Captivate General] rohizzle121:
same thing, i am running darkys 3.0 froyo

is this update going to be stock 2.2?
[Captivate General] life2monkeys:
I haven't had this yet, I'm on cog, this is interesting though, has our Unicorn arrived?
[Captivate General] rohizzle121:
what would be the most ideal FW?
[Captivate General] iamcombat:
I've gotten the same text twice now...

Running I1897UCJI6

Froyo 2.2

But when trying to do manual update it wouldn't let me...didn't say there was or wasn't an update. Might try mini kies later tonight.
[Captivate General] malicenfz:
Got the text again and im running jh7 2.1
[Captivate General] drwx:
if you just set your phone's time 24 hours ahead, you don't have to wait for 24 hours to recheck for any updates.
[Captivate General] skinien:
DON'T SEARCH FOR UPDATES WITH A ROOTED PHONE ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE RUNNING 2.2!!!

Large men in black vans will come take you away. :p
[Captivate General] mymansionisabox:
Haha, I highly doubt that it matters to be quite honest.

Searching is one thing, installing would most definitely brick the phone.
[Captivate General] justmart:
I received too! Cog 2.3b3 ATT Puerto Rico

Sent from my Samsung Captivate @ Puerto Rico
[Captivate General] Almamy1:
Might be froyo
[Captivate General] life2monkeys:
no confirmation yet? what the **** AT&t!? I feel like if this were froyo the forums would be a bit more lit up
[Captivate General] SwiftJudgement:
Edit

Nevermind...I had my phone replaced a few days ago. I guess I never updated to JH7...
[Captivate General] screwyluie:
where in the world are we? I'm in 98230, manual check revealed nothing
[Captivate General] ardyer:
Just checked kies and it had nothing listed.
[Captivate General] polarbee:
I'm in Alaska running JH7. No texts, nothing on manual check or kies.
[Captivate General] JEANRIVERA:
i just got the sms also!!!!!!!! is it froyo coming???
[Captivate General] Xstop:
Seeing is believing. I'm still hoping for end of November... :cool:
[Captivate General] stuff:
I saw this thread while I was flashing back to stock with odin. So after it finished, I decided to check for an update.

It did say there was one, and it attempted to download, but I didn't have any luck getting past 0/100%.

I upgraded to Cog 2.3b3 and when trying to run the update again, it says no update. So, I don't know if that means you must be on Eclair to get it, or maybe they already pulled what was trying to update lol.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Nice to see that I am not the only one in alaska
[Captivate General] thedon809:
I got the text twice saying there was an update but haven't gotten one to download it. I'm on stock jh7.
[Captivate General] polarbee:
Fear the coming Alaskan Horde.
[Captivate General] sstrawsb:
Well I just downloaded the update fully and it went to a update screen and got 50% then failed..

Anyone else have this happen?
[Captivate General] sclRanger:
Have not got the text. Check for update failed.

If this is 2.2 they should have put it on kies at the same time. Would have saved them and us a lot of heart ache.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Sounds like another OTA mess from ATT. Ill wait till a keis version is out
[Captivate General] kegobeer:
If you flashed to stock, then the update was probably JH7.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
If you receive SMS asking you to update, it is probably still the JH7 update. AT&T is probably still sending out JH7 update messages in batches.
[Captivate General] sclRanger:
There have been several posters saying they have JH7, the OP said "running jh7 2.1".
[Captivate General] david717:
He means it's possible they are still sending out JH7 notices. Regardless of what version you are running.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
^^Exactly. If AT&T is sending SMS, there is no way for it to know what firmware version you're running.
[Captivate General] veive:
Actually they can poll your sim for info on what device it is plugged into, which should pull the current firmware.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Then how do you explain people with leaked Froyo roms getting the text to update.
[Captivate General] veive:
Lazy coding on AT&t's part, and/or a glitch.

My guess is that since there are only 2 officially released roms they just sent a text message to anything that wasn't running JH7, rather than checking for anything later than the original stock.
[Captivate General] tsachi:
That would be my guess. I never got the SMS on the original update, but went ahead and did it. In any case, I'd be surprised if they sent the froyo OTA. That's a huge load on their already crumbling infrastructure.
[Captivate General] sstrawsb:
I never even received a text from them. I just stumbled upon this thread and check to see my about settings and it popped up. Im still on JH6
[Captivate General] bookofjoshua:
I find that unlikely, I got two texts from AT&T on the first day JH7 was available for OTA and I just got Two text again today for whatever is going on.

I'm not going to speculate, I like Cognition and I'll just keep using that. I wouldn't apply an OTA unless I was running a stock rom anyway.
[Captivate General] iamcombat:
Just an update....after checking for update manually earlier and getting nothing I thought nothing of the text. But I picked up my phone randomly to see if I had any missed texts after the 2nd ATT message had went through to me and saw the little update thing in the corner...pulled down the menu and it said it was connecting to the server but nothing has changed since then.
[Captivate General] newter55:
Clear download manager cache/data or change date on your phone

swyped....and I apologize for not proofreading
[Captivate General] PixelPerfect3:
I got the JH7 update SMS even though I had updated it via Kies.
[Captivate General] buddy17:
my gf just called and asked if she should update when it tells her to. I have her phone running 2.2 so i told her not to, but i find it VERY hard to believe that all these people are getting att texts at about the same time for an old JH7 update.

Either this is a glitch or it is a new update...not JH7
[Captivate General] emuneee:
Someone at AT&T probably fell asleep in the keyboard and is now sending phantom update texts LOL.

Seriously, I think this is the first stage of AT&T ramping up in the froyo update. I expect it to be out within the next seven days. Just my speculation.
[Captivate General] malicenfz:
I hope it's the official 2.2 update cause the leaked ones make my phone lag. I've gotten the text twice so far and no update.... in running JH7 rooted
[Captivate General] yungstar89:
Lets hope this is really Froyo people. That would be awesome.
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
Moreover, a NEW FroYo. One that fixes GPS.

I'd say fixes lag, but that's a pipe dream.
[Captivate General] buddy17:
and you don't think a REAL gps fix is a pipe dream!?!
[Captivate General] pamaguin:
Has anybody tried going back to stock and doing the update?
[Captivate General] MikeyMike01:
I think it's something Samsung would WANT to do.

Replacing RFS is not something I think they WANT to do. Making it a pipe-dream.

Is working GPS unlikely? Probably. But not quite on the squalid level of hopelessness of EXT4.
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
Has anyone that tried to do the update and it failed..tried to see if they could do the 3 button recovery now ? Just curious to see if those that could before can still do so..

Mac
[Captivate General] a.vandelay:
i'm stock, not even rooted, and i haven't received the message. i tried the settings -> software update and found nothing yet.
[Captivate General] jamina1:
This is exciting. I am getting a Captivate today and having Froyo off the bat would be great.

Otherwise, I still need to remove the AT&T bloatware.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Don't hold your breath. Froyo is gonna be awhile unless you load one of the leaked versions.
[Captivate General] cbruce80:
No update available when I plugged into Kies Mini yesterday.
[Captivate General] sridhar618:
This could tie to the Nov 11th date that was posted on a couple of forums sometime ago...

lmgtfy
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
AT&T might very well be testing the waters as some suspect too..just to see how their servers will handle it by trying to see how many will try to download at the same time..

Is it possible for them to push it out in various sections of the country at different times ?

Mac
[Captivate General] buddy17:
big difference in galaxy s and captivate....
[Captivate General] chupacabrachus:
I'm calling shenanigans. I have a 100% factory-stock phone with only the last OTA update applied. No txt, no update via settings, no update with kies.
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
I'm on stock. No updates available from att OTA.
[Captivate General] l7777:
I can't believe people are still rushing to the update like lemmings after the last update fiasco. Perhaps someone should bump one of the old update threads that talks about how many people bricked their phones attempting an update. That goes doubly true for people running anything but an AT&T bone stock phone. Patients people, patients.
[Captivate General] garringm:
after having usb port issues on a week old phone I got another from att. This already had the latest update I think either way it say jh7 and I havent updated. anyways I tried to manually update the other day for giggles, It downloads, starts to install, then quits while waiting on "preparing...."

What update is it trying to install?
[Captivate General] captrage:
I just got the text, while reading this post to see what to expect, it auto-downloaded an update and tried to install it.

I didn't go to software update.

It downloaded, then started the install, said it was restarting in 5 seconds, the progress bar went to 50% then rebooted, my wallpaper changed to some random picture I had on the phone, and finally once fully booted...

The update was not installed, what the heck!?
[Captivate General] stuff:
Well I'm not sure wtf at&t is pushing out. Someone should just download it, and try to get it off your sd and see what it is.

or check a log to see the dl link
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
What Software version does your phone say you have?
[Captivate General] Shammyh:
True, you'd think with all the bricking that happened last time people would learn.

Plus, if you're a member here on XDA, you have no business running stock AT&T software... ;)
[Captivate General] sclRanger:
+1

That would put an end to all the speculations.
[Captivate General] captrage:
Don't recall, I just said screw it, and installed Froyo.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
If you have Froyo and tried to install, then it would fail.

I doubt AT&T will push Froyo OTA - no one did it in EU and Kies Mini exists for US. This is all probably just more SMS update messages that are not checking version.
[Captivate General] KPoon:
i'm running cog v2.3b3 and got this text twice. nothing in terms of trying to get me to actually install though.
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
Oh my bad. Didn't know you bought these peoples phones for them.
[Captivate General] tonyc0642:
Agreed. Most of the custom ROMs here pwn any updates they'll ever roll out anyway. Go on the At&t forums and ask about it.
[Captivate General] xyrovice:
All I'll say is that I'm running Molecule, the 'AOSP' ROM, and got the text twice within 30 or so minutes.

I was about to flash stock in the hopes of Froyo. Glad I checked here first.

BUT...IF THIS

REALLY

IS FROYO...

DOES THIS MEAN SOURCE CODE?

and thus

CyanogenMod/true AOSP?!?!
[Captivate General] captrage:
I didn't have Froyo, but after yet another AT&T update fail, I decided to install 2.2 and forget it.
[Captivate General] rmikulus:
I appreciate the narcissism, but we're not all on XDA to flash new roms ;)
[Captivate General] jc2470:
I have never gotten a att text for updating to anything, still never d/l jh7 and no text for it either.
[Captivate General] fldude99:
Why haven't you updated to jh7?
[Captivate General] veive:
I guess some of us don't know what they are missing. :D
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
What the hell are you here for then?

Swyping...please read slowly!
[Captivate General] rmikulus:
Behold II was more than enough rom-ing. Captivate is in now, and the name of the game this generation is theming... don't want that beautiful screen to go to waste do you? :D
[Captivate General] a.vandelay:
no one running a stock phone received any update or notification, so i think this is something else going on. maybe at&t trying to get everyone up to the latest 2.1 before issuing 2.2? and bad programming misreading custom roms as not the right 2.1 version?

and the previous update worked fine for us. running custom roms is great but you can't possibly expect to update OTA from a custom rom without issues. but both have their advantages.
[Captivate General] raynut:
Phone was rooted w/ jh6, no other mods and I just received the update text and downloaded. No issues with the download and now phone now shows I have jh7.
[Captivate General] fufuplatter:
Just got two text msgs from AT&T within the last hour regarding a "free update."

Frankly I'm annoyed. Why am I getting spammed by my carrier? :D

Honestly, after discovering the multitude of ROMs floating around, I can't say I'd ever settle for stock or AT&T/Samsung updates. Unless they're going to push Gingerbread (dream on) anytime soon, I'm sticking with custom. Then again, I have a sneaking suspicion that AT&T will manage to foul up Gingerbread when it eventually hits our phones. :rolleyes:
[Captivate General] wtturn:
My device is bone stock and I got the text at 4:33 PM EST.

It's now giving me the "Connecting to DM server" notification, although I have turned Device Management off. Why is it still running?
[Captivate General] pamaguin:
I just asked a local AT&T store if 2.2 is out and they said yes. I'll wait for conformation on the forum.
[Captivate General] axis01:
Got two texts today. After the second, it initiated download. Downloaded, installed, and rebooted. Now showing 2.1 with 1 update and JH7. Also, 3 button now works (it didn't before), YEAH.

BTW: i'm rooted to get rid of ATT bloat only. Still running everything else stock. I'm new to the Captivate, coming from a modded WM6 Fuse. Still trying to figure it all out. Don't like jumping in with both feet before learning how to get back out. :)
[Captivate General] emuneee:
I bet if you ask then if 3.0 is out they'd day the samething.
[Captivate General] kegobeer:
The latest from @GalaxySsupport is that Samsung US has only said 2.2 will be out in Q4. They have not released any official date.
[Captivate General] devho:
I've had my Captivate since July and never once gotten an SMS for update. I'm only rooted to remove bloatware with stock firmware. Still get a failed OTA update 50% in. I've tried several times when JH7 first came out, but gave up. I wonder what's brewing now...
[Captivate General] parcsalooc:
2.3 that is ;)
[Captivate General] chrisharmful:
Okay, got two texts from AT&T about an update, right before I was going to dump COG 2.4.1 on my phone and the DM icons popped up. Except now my phone has shut the helll down. Am I screwed? Or in for a surprise?
[Captivate General] newter55:
Hmmm.... let us know if you got an early Xmas present... ;)

You either will be flashing anyway... or Santa gave you a brick and you are off to att store though I am not sure about the whole brick through update fiasco, they likely could have recovered with odin... I never bothered updating any of ours
[Captivate General] chrisharmful:
No early present, phone was stuck so I got on the horn with AT&T and they couldn't figure it out, wanted to send me another phone. I ended up flashing CoG again through recovery then installed my backup. The device manager icon is still coming on though but no update. I did ask the girl on the phone if it was Froyo trying to update and she didn't see anything about an update pushig out today in their paperwork. So who knows what that was about. One thing is I never initiated an update, it just started on its own.
[Captivate General] JPS81:
I got the update notice too. I flashed back to stock JH7 then tried the whole "check for updates" thing and it said "no update available."
[Captivate General] Dani897:
Although there is news about the nexus s, don't count on gingerbread so fast. We'll see a nexus s port long before gingerbread.

Conversation with a samsung engineer indicated that froyo was in the works and we have seen leaks on several galaxy s devices. We can hope gingerbread doesn't take that long with the nexus s as a starting point but I'm sure it's many months away.

We don't have a release date for the american galaxy s phones but we should see an official froyo by the ends of the year, hopefully by the end of the month. Is been said already but it seems att it's trying to push jf7 so the froyo upgrade goes more smoothly.

[Captivate General] Mac11700:
I went into the AT&T store this morning to pick up a car charger for my upcoming deer hunting trip that I'm leaving on tonight. Since my store is one of the corporate stores..I thought I would ask just to see what story I was given about the update that never happened yesterday..At first he was insistent that the 2.2 update had already happened..in which I was just as insistent that it never took place.. >: The tech then went to his terminal and started looking for a answer for me..Get this..he told me the update is going to be a OTA one starting Monday 11-15-2010. I ask him who said this..and he said it is what they got at the store from AT&T in a bulletin..

Man...I hope it's true..but I'm not holding my breath for it to happen though..It's sounds kinda a hokey that there has been no formal word of it going out on their web sight...and...for most logical people you would think some mention of it to be made..but then again..since they are selling a multimedia smart phone without being able to supply the correct cables to make it work..nor with so many store employees who don't even know how to operate a Android device including some managers..it would stand to reason they are just as in the dark as we all are...Boy oh Boy..as big a company as AT&T...and it seems no-one that is in charge that understands Androids

Mac
[Captivate General] veener79:
Will see what happnes. I agree you would think that bulletin would have leaked out by now. I am not expecting either.
[Captivate General] phlunkie:
Technically 2.2 is out.

Now to be more specific, did you ask them if at&t is currently pushing OTA updates to bring the captivate to 2.2?

Watch out for loopholes in questions.
[Captivate General] a.vandelay:
well assuming it's supposed to be november, and the week after next is a holiday in the US, who knows?
[Captivate General] lostinbeta:
Use Odin to flash to stock then use Samsung keis mini to flash jh7. It was the only way I could get jh7 on my phone as the ota for it always failed.
[Captivate General] Xstop:
The only thing I'm eager beaver about, lol. Is when the devs get a hold of the "Official" release and they start doing there magic...:D

Other than that, I don't really think ppl with custom froyo roms installed already will switch to stock AT&T Froyo...you think? :confused:

I'm sure everyone willl read posts after posts about the official 2.2 update when it happens.

[Captivate General] Mac11700:
I would bet that many do flash them to it when it is available....you know how folks love flashing the latest thing available...especially if everything works as it should like no lag and a working gps...Those that had issues flashing the OTA..might be real hesitant to do this though. Me..I won't jump on the update till I find out what has changed in it. I did the JH7 ota just fine without issue..but..I also like knowing I can flash to a custom rom right now too.I'm jusr really tired of of having to be a Beta tester...ya know.

Mac
[Captivate General] YoungGun821:
2:15pm today. I get a message..

"AT&T FREE MSG: AT&T is providing a free update for your phone. When asked to install the update, please select OK. Thank you."

I will wait a bit to see what others are saying before I update. Past OTA i hear has bricked phones so hopefully there will be one where we can download online..
[Captivate General] kennethpenn:
Also got 2 messages for an OTA. Running JPM/JP6.
[Captivate General] chrisharmful:
So I've got the same text four times now and the DM is still trying to do something, but thankfully my phone isn't shutting down anymore while it's trying to do whatever it is it's trying to do. Guessing that since I'm running COG, it isn't going to connect until I go back to stock.

Whatever this is, AT&T really wants me to have it.
[Captivate General] PixelPerfect3:
When I try to update it says that I need to wait 2000+ hours before I am allowed to check. I think I changed my date to quite far in the future so that I could check for an update before 24 hours. Anyway I can reset this value?
[Captivate General] hollywould:
I just got two text today also, and I'm running stock JH7 rooted. I want an official froyo update so bad. I decided to move away from Windows Mobile so I don't have to flash cooked roms any more. Also because android kicks ass.
[Captivate General] newter55:
Try going to manage applications, all, find download manager and clear data or cache depending on what your phone is running atm

Though I am not sure what you want to try updating for.... nothing new
[Captivate General] malicenfz:
Wouldn't it be crazy if it was 2.3 getting pushed to us? Lol i wish.
[Captivate General] Krad:
There are better things to wish for.. like winning the lottery or inappopriate comment removed

wishing for 2.3 is pretty lame
[Captivate General] malicenfz:
Wow so negative...
[Captivate General] Mac11700:
Yes..it would be crazy nice..but it ain't never going to happen..Then again (

opposite extremes here

)...AT&T could add all kinds of bloat ware to it and really lock the phone down permanently and call it Apple 2.3...they like that particular fruit over simple tasty treats... more healthy for you and all of that rot or so I'm told :eek::eek::eek:;):p
