Thats Interesting.
[Captivate General] Stephenxda:
On the same site under specs it shows 2.1. Yet on the first paragraph it says 2.2
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
So now you can chalk up false advertising with nonexistent support. Way to go Samsung!

From tech support agent

Please wait for a Samsung Agent to respond.

Chat Information You are now chatting with 'Paxton'

Paxton: Hi, thank you for contacting Samsung Technical Support. How may I help you today?

Visitor: Hi, I noticed the Samsung Captivate page now says it has Android 2.2 - Does this mean the new phones are being shipped with 2.2 (in the U.S.)?

Paxton: I understand that you want no information regarding the new Samsung captivate and the operating system coming with the phone. Am I right?

Visitor: yes

Paxton: As it is about to be released that the reason it's posted on the website.
[Captivate General] SlappyMcGee:
Wow is it just me or does it seem like you are talking to HAL 9000?

I dont know how many would remember this but, its almost like they have Dr. Sbiatso answering the online chat questions.
[Captivate General] born_fisherman:
out sourced.
[Captivate General] nkrick:
This change nearly coincides with the previously rumored date for AT&T's release of Froyo Captivates to the AT&T stores (Nov 21st). While I have not heard anything about what version is on the AT&T store Captivates, it does look like Samsung was/is expecting new Captivates to come with 2.2 starting today or yesterday...
[Captivate General] h8rift:
Was told flat out by a Samsung business rep in person that Froyo is out first week of Dec for AT&T Captivate. Hope it comes early...but that was right from the horses mouth.
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Notice, very vague on an actual release date.

Who, Mr. Ed? *grabs popcorn*
[Captivate General] skinien:
I can't wait for the official release! This Mobile AP and lack of bloatware is driving me crazy! :p

Just kidding; I know there are some of you who don't want to root your phones and whatnot.
[Captivate General] Rhiannon224:
Odd, it actually says comes with 2.2 but when you look at the specs it says 2.1 OS, they are confused. Perhaps out of boredom I will flash back to stock and connect with mini kies to see if it is available.
[Captivate General] sclRanger:
Don't bother. I checked kies mini this morning and about an hour ago. Kies mini updated this morning. It just says "current version".
[Captivate General] SlappyMcGee:
I wonder why we havent seen a new leaked ROM for the captivate is an offical 2.2 is in the works. Maybe AT&T is just gonna push Cog v2.3b6 to our phones :)
[Captivate General] vksf01:
so this is what the website says now (i bolded the 2.2 reference)

Galaxy S with Android 2.1 OS

Do you want the whole world in your hands? How about the whole universe? Tens of thousands of apps populate Android Market -- everything from popular games to productivity tools to constellation maps. Powered by the latest Android platform(and upgradeable to 2.2), this phone fully integrates with Google Mobile Services. You're now at one with your Gmail account, Google Maps, YouTube videos and more.

Dr. Sbaitso was awesome. It used to come with new sound blaster speakers way back in the day.

[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Ditto. Seems Samsung could f'up a wet dream with no troubles.
[Captivate General] jsgiv:
I'm sure the GPS will still report you off by about 2000 meters when you throw it.. :)

GPS is the primary reason I returned mine... Great phone otherwise..

Somebody know something about that (picture deleted on server. I will upload de picture here) ??

It is in spanish, so I will try to write it here (it's blurry)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] almaalma74:
nothing important
[Galaxy S I9000 General] foxbat121:
My guess from the google translate:

They have instructed the waranty service center to repair or replace the circuit board for GPS problems but the parts are not yet available.

Sounds like Samsung found the fix for GPS issue but it is a hardware fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Deleted member 1719473:
Yeah.. but you must to leave you phone two times in the repair center in order to get the new spare parts. Very bad :S
[Galaxy S I9000 General] andrej.marinic:
so samsung admits there is a problem with the hardware, but is unwilling to replace it unless the customer is persistent in reporting the problem? that is proper wack.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] foxbat121:
Let's face it, replace motherboard for a few million SGS will cause significant profit loss for Samsung. They have to try what ever they can to limit that lose. But at least, they finally figured out how to fix the damn thing.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Deleted member 1719473:
But this is true? Nobody know somethig about that?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] fulcrum1971:
I am not very sure about the authenticity of the post. But having said that, incase Samsung has found the problem and are willing to rectify it then full marks to them. But I still have my doubts.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] DamianGto:
Lol.

This is for defective sgs that they can't fix.

Its not a few million that need this.

But it don't help much for people here. That don't bring it to repair in the first place.

What's with WP7 devs man? I'm finding a lot are like that, great app then a few weeks later, take it off the market for some stupid reason.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dtboos:
You won't see much until Mango because the API's developers need to really make IM's work isn't in current OS builds. Flory was horrid, and I don't think IM+ will be that great as it still needs to rely on a 3rd party server system to do notifications.

There is also no multitasking until Mango which is needed for the ability to have it run in the background and notify you when somebody sends you a message.

[About XDA developers] klimpetje:
I do look at the portal almost daily and use the content navigator for filtering on windows mobile content ince i only have one WM6 HD2/Leo.

since some weeks WM7 is more and more on the foreground. So most posts in the WM filter are about WM7 and i cannot use it at all (it's quite a diff form the WM6, isn't it?). The most WM users will stil be at WM 6 or lower.

So: would it not be logical to have 2 filters, 1 for WM6 and below and 1 for WM7?

When I bought me Focus the ATT rep installed a new sim card. The rep didn’t copy all my contacts from my 2 year old Fuze running Winmo 6.5. I haven’t seen anything in Zune to copy my contacts from Outlook to the Focus. I have copied through activsync all my contacts from the Fuze to Outlook but can’t find a method to know get the outlook contacts on my Focus sim. Thanks for any suggestions.
[Windows Phone 7 General] prjkthack:
Windows Phone 7 does not currently sync directly with your desktop Outlook client (via USB, or any other directly connected method). The phone was designed to sync with cloud-based services, which means that it ties into your Windows Live ID (Hotmail contacts), or Exchange ActiveSync accounts (such as Gmail).

A workaround would be to use the Outlook Connector to add your Windows Live Hotmail account to Outlook, and then copy your contacts from your Outlook file to your Hotmail account.

The phone automatically syncs Email, Calendar, and Contact information from your Windows Live ID.

Please try a search next time, as this question and information on this topic is everywhere.

You should of left your device conneted and ran alpha rev cd again, hboot/bootloader is the deepest level of software on your device, mess that up and theres no fixes, you also shouldnt of pulled the batt, there was still a chance to save it while it was on! Theres no way to fix it now you have turned it off, its a paid repair, i dont think even jtag can help you now sorry :(

[Windows Phone 7 General] bartsimmo:
Hi,

As per title. Is there anyway to install apps without accessing and downloading them from the Marketplace? All I need is an PDF reader that I can install on multiple devices and was looking to see if there is a simpler solution.

Thanks for reading.

Bart
[Windows Phone 7 General] prjkthack:
Installation of applications must be done through the Marketplace, and access to the Marketplace requires a Windows Live ID.

So at the moment, this is the only solution.
[Windows Phone 7 General] bartsimmo:
Ok, thanks prjkthack.

So I guess I just set up one generic Windows Live ID for the devices. Would there be any issues with this?
[Windows Phone 7 General] ajhvdb:
Yes, I've read that the first Live ID is also used with other Apps. The next ID can be used too but only for certain Apps.

EDIT:

Reading it back it's very cryptic :) You need to investigate this more..
[Windows Phone 7 General] bartsimmo:
Ok, thanks ajhvdb! :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] prjkthack:
Only the primary Windows Live ID is used for Marketplace downloads and purchases. So whichever Live ID you sync first, that will be the one where your downloads and purchases will be linked to.

Additional Live IDs only sync Email, Calendar, and Contacts. Primary is used for everything else (Xbox, Zune, Marketplace, etc.).
[G2 and Desire Z General] WarBird87:
so i am just wondering what will happen if say the G2 does get gingerbread and I am Running CM 6.1 RC2... will i get the update, or will i have to go back to the stock rom to get it to work with the phone... assuming CM 6.1 wont work with 2.3 right away?
[G2 and Desire Z General] slinky1914:
I agree OTAs are always blocked especially in CM6, I wonder if Gingerbread will be called CM7?
[G2 and Desire Z General] g_grey:
since CM has been going up in version for every other release of android then i would say it is safe to say that gingerbread will become CM7
[G2 and Desire Z General] ffff00:
Pointless argument:

True. But Eclair (2.0/1) was 6.0, and Froyo (2.2) is 6.1. So if Gingerbread is really 2.3 as suggested, then it'd make sense that it be 6.2.

Either way, it doesn't matter :p
[G2 and Desire Z General] tazz9690:
No, you're wrong.

Donut was CM4.

Eclair was CM5.

Froyo is CM6. When cyanogen updated to 2.2.1, that may have been why they changed it to 6.1, don't quote me on it though.

So it makes sense that Gingerbread will be CM7
[G2 and Desire Z General] ffff00:
haha whoops, got my version numbers mixed up for a bit. It's been forever since I wasn't on cm6. My bad :p

To answer the OP: yes, ota's are blocked in cm. A rooted build will be out within the next day of release, and might work over cm without a wipe. Sadly, cm7 on the other hand won't be out for a little while after gingerbread source is released.
[G2 and Desire Z General] MrOtsKrad:
NO you are!!11 dot
[G2 and Desire Z General] mode_ss:
I have the same question... But the difference is that Im running Virtuous 0.7.0 (I really like the Sense on my G2)... so, If Gingerbread is released... Will apply to my phone, even if im running that awesome Virtuous ROM? or I have to do what @aad4321 replied earlier??
[G2 and Desire Z General] instigator008:
I wouldn't worry. A CM Gingerbread build will be out long before a carrier OTA...unless you're on a Nexus One!
