Who really cares about gingerbread official?

We will get gingerbread in cm when that comes out
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
i would think that if you could show this much, you could paste the text of the email... but even that doesn't prove anything.

After all, Samsung has always said "By the end of the year" so your email doesn't tell us anything new.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Actually, if legit, it tells us there will be no delay. I, for one, appreciate hearing that.
[Captivate General] Evilspawn:
No problem guys...I'm just excited hearing it from the source and not a rumor.....they usually fill us in right before so we are aware...none the less atleast it will be an official and not a buggy leak for devs to work with.....and the bloatware? Just remove it :)
[Captivate General] Evilspawn:
This would be understood if samsung had the ok on the release...but as the email says "samsung is waiting for final approval" meaning there waiting for at&t...so samsung has no blame.
[Captivate General] buddy17:
sooo just because it is official means it won't be buggy?? This is samsung we are talking about.....
[Captivate General] ScottyNuttz:
So we will get Froyo in in the next 2.5 weeks? I'm holding you, Evilspawn, to that;)
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Let's hope there's not some reason behind his screen name.:D
[Captivate General] Rogue9:
Thats why I'm waiting for it :)
[Captivate General] stone_phalanges:
I would love to know which "buggy" froyo leaks people on the forums are talking about. The worst 2.2 beta that I have put on my phone is 1000 times better than the "final" builds that Samsung has put out. JH7 in particular is pure garbage (maybe not with bugs but it's features are neutered).

Bottom line, if anyone is still waiting for Froyo you deserve to wait as long as it takes them to crap out your bloated AT&T neutered froyo. I'll eat my keyboard if they put usb tether back in and don't cripple wifi tether so you have to pay for it.
[Captivate General] nybmx:
I, along with most people, are excited for the official release because that means source code follows shortly after. When the source code is released it means all sorts of stable roms, and tweaks to existing roms.

I really don't see why you and other people get so heated over other people wanting this released. I imagine by your attitude that you're running a custom rom. If that is the case there is no doubt you have flashed multiple beta releases of multiple roms and have had some issues along the way.

[Captivate General] Donatron:
QFT

It's amazing how people are not able to see that an official release is beneficial to the custom ROM community as well.
[Captivate General] stone_phalanges:
It's really not that I have a particular disdain for the official release but honestly I'm just an end user I don't have a huge problem with a memory leak if the browser is fast and I don't care about quadrant benchmarks etc. I don't really know what those things are or what they measure. What I do care about is removed features and willful crippling of the OS. The source code just means the rom devs will need to put out a few crappy buggy versions of their roms while they try to figure out how to "fix" all the crap samsung and AT&T broke. I saw it with JH7 I don't think froyo will be any different.
[Captivate General] Evilspawn:
Thank you...that was my point
[Captivate General] Evilspawn:
Exactly
[Captivate General] dave1977nj:
Hoping for it soon! if it fixes or makes the gps better with flash 10 i'll be happy
[Captivate General] xargs1:
They can't put it back in, because it was never removed... Why do people keep posting this nonsense?
[Captivate General] stone_phalanges:
Are you telling me that JH7 has USB tether, because I had it and It was not one of the connection options? Did they move USB tether to the wireless settings?
[Captivate General] xargs1:
You just choose the "Kies" option from the connection menu and tethering works the same as it always did.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
The way it worked originally was as an NDIS adapter - Kies was not needed. You are saying that selecting Kies will let you plug it in to any pc with drivers installed and just Tether - no Kies needed? You may want to test that.
[Captivate General] xargs1:
Kies is still not needed. You select the "Kies (firmware update)" option on the phone menu when you connect USB.

I don't need to test it since I do it all the time on both Windows and Linux (which obviously doesn't have Kies or Samsung drivers). I don't know about NDIS support; I use dial-up networking.
[Captivate General] matt310:
Why are you people thanking him? This is just more worthless information posted by people seeking attention. Per usual. Thread fail.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Same here. Not everyone needs the tweaks of a custom ROM or the headaches. I don't tether and I prefer not to have Market stop working for me because I'm using the same ID as a couple hundred others with the same cooked ROM. And some of just prefer not doing anything to our phones that may void the warranty. This place exists for those who want to get more out of their phones, BUT they are the ones who decide what level of modification they are comfortable with. The day this place becomes for custom ROM users only (like some of you are starting to sound) is the day I stop coming in. I've found a lot of things in here that I used on my Incite and Tilt 2 and have yet felt the need to flash a cooked ROM, but know I can if I want. The release of OEM Froyo will be very welcome by me and many like me.

Out of curiosity, does anyone have a clue about root whenever we update? Will root be removed?
[Captivate General] Rhiannon224:
There is a rooting method using ADB that worked on the leaked Froyo when it took away root and I plan to use it. Here is the link with instructions on manually rooting.

Nothing to see, it's JH7. You probably never show as getting the update so you are getting pinged. I did JH7 both ota and mini kies versions, I never get those messages.

Sent from a phone somewhere in the universe
[Captivate General] stone_phalanges:
I really don't mean to sound like a jerk when I say I could care less about the official update. It's just that Samsung and AT&T have practiced such dirty business with this whole update thing I find it liberating that there are so many great options to get the update without them. I have used stock and I have used Designgears's roms and I can say without a doubt that Perception and Cognition blow the doors off stock. There is nothing wrong with waiting on Samsung, but if you're still waiting on froyo you're waiting because YOU want to wait not because you are being forced to.

Isn't that the whole point of android?
[Captivate General] cruiserbax:
I welcome the source code! and I have some hope that with JPU 2.2.1 (amazing by the way!) leaked recently that perhaps a captivate official ROM MIGHT be 2.2.1 with all the memmory and IO tweaks that JPU has. bring it! it's just another base to make custome ROMs and JPU is extreamly nice and smooth so maybe it's a look at the very near future for Captivate?
[Captivate General] mchimney:
Hence the reason i said FWIW in my previous post..
[Captivate General] Shadowstare:
Zzzzzzzz

Ok the new info :

2.2 will come out this month (Which we already know and have known for a while now.)

Rumors about 2.3 coming to the Captivate are false. (Samsung never said officially that 2.3 will come to any Galaxy S phones (Nexus S doesn't count).)

Do I have that right.....

thanks for the new info.....but I'm going to go back to sleep until 2.2 officially is release. But I will wake up again when the port of the Nexus S for the Captivate is out.
[Captivate General] ricethief:
We can complain all we want about AT&T and the how long it has taken. I know I am not pleased. But...I don't think any of the US Galaxy S carriers have released Froyo yet. Yeah, it sucks some of our neighbors to the north(no disrespect Canada, you guys are awesome) already got the official update. US carriers always seem to lag though. At this point I think we should just be happy it hopefully didn't get delayed. If anything it is a cheap Xmas present from AT&T.

Happy Holidays Everyone!

Not filling the forums up with speculative garbage re-posted a quintillion times is a rare, near-priceless commodity these days. Now, back you go to your Altima forum so you can discuss how cool your purple tint looks.
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Altima forum? You couldn't be more wrong if you tried.:D
[Captivate General] fldude99:
Has it been mentioned anywhere whether the "official" 2.2 will be OTA?

P.S. I support Miami Son in his views on root...roms..etc. Not everybody is into that. XDA has a rep as the forum to go to for root, flash, etc..but hopefully its not one sided as that..so I agree with the Son..even tho he has that ridiculous helmet as his logo...
[Captivate General] Miami_Son:
Must be a Jets fan.:D;)
[Captivate General] buddy17:
despite the part about the Altima forum.....i couldn't agree more.

Nothing in this thread proves anything more than the other 10000 threads claiming it. Oh, i guess he at least made it SEEM like he had a reputable source, but its not. A "head honcho" telecommunications rep. That would be the LAST person i believed...No different than calling into a normal telecommunication rep and having them tell you it will be out by the end of the month.

[Captivate General] zelendel:
Ok guys. Will the 2.2 update come this month? Will just have to wait to see. Will we be way ahead of the update? For those that flash custom roms then yes. Me personalty, I will never flash anything att releases OTA, far to many issues. Hell the last on one bricked 15 stock devices that i know of personly and from what my Rep told me it was a common thing. So untilled the release i am gonna close this thread.
[Desire General] Tyderion:
Hi there,

Now I don't really know where to start...

I had to RMA my desire a while back and they replaced the mainboard and the "upper" board (because of random reboots as well as a dead camera).

About two weeks after I got my phone back, the camera (respectively, I guess, it's the upper board) stopped working again.

Things which stopped working: Cam+LED, front LEDs, internal phone speaker (not the one to listen to music), audio-jack. Those things are all in the "upper" part of the phone, that's why I think the board died.

This is the same for stock/custom ROM, RUU does not restore the function to any of these.

I did not want to send it to repair again straightaway because the things I do mostly (internet, mail, messaging) still work and because it took >6 weeks to repair.

Now the strange thing is, as the title already states, my LED blinks up randomly (for about 1/2 to 1 second). It sometimes blinks when doing a titanium backup, sometimes when (un-)installing an app and sometimes when I start apps.

I think it mostly happens when using apps that request SU access, but not exclusively those apps.

Has anybody gotten a similar problem or any idea, insight?

I'm not really looking for a solution besides sending it to the repaircenter again, but I can't stop wondering why this happens...

Sandisk 8gb class 2.. no reboots whatsoever..

However i dont think these reboot issues are related to sd cards (unless maybe the cards themselves have a problem due to prolonged use or other factors)

I would advise to try formatting ur card on a pc (using a card reader if possible) and then formatting it while in winmo 6.5 (using the htc formatting application found in a stock htc hd2 rom)..

then try out any new build, without changing the kernel, and without overclocking (this can cause issues)

after this procedure, if all doesnt go well, then we can rule out that hardware is the prob (either card or phone)

oh n by the way, during this testing procedure, if possible, flash a t-mo US 3.14 rom (together with radio) using pc of course to keep ur hardspl from being overwritten..

@denyboy

try underclocking ur cpu, less or equal to 768mhz (some desirehd builds apart from mdj's revolution hd build become very slow when below 768)

this should keep the temp less than or equal to approx 40 degrees Celcius (that is if your not plugged in to charger and not in direct sunlight ;) )

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] ToddeSwe:
Hi!

I'm doing a PC format and then a WinMo formating tool everytime i try a new rom. And i have no plans on overclocking at all :) I would like a kernal that's not over/under-clocked. But i have not found any.

SO, maybe it's my card or my phone. Will try the latest Artemis that is now Android supported (what ever that is) And then maybe i can use Android without any reboots as well...

I can stress my device with gaming and the temp is about 40-41 degrees without any reboots. Then the device can lay on my table without any use at all and suddenly reboots itself... very strange i think. I can buy the reboots when stressing the device (since this Android stuff is not for our HD2's) but when not using them.... nah... :(

Thank you for your reply!

I had random reboots on the 16gb class 2 that comes with the TMOUS phone and with a Kingston Class 4 8gb.

I don't think it is the card, it seems to have to do with the build/kernel. I never get reboots when running either shubcraft or michyprima's CM6 builds. I always get them when I run M-deejays and the topia series builds.

I have reboots only when using Sense/Sense HD builds (every few hours). It reboots automatically while the phone is IDLE regardless of the kernel. I don't overclock and the phone cannot be overheating since it reboots when it's idle.

I am now using tytung's NexusHD2 and I haven't a reboot in an entire week. Using a Sandisk 16Gb Class 2. I've been looking around for ages but haven't been able to figure out what could be causing this since it seems to a unique issue. Any ideas?

I do not think SD cards have anything to do with reboots... i think its a combination of the kernel, rom, and overclock(if applicable) you're using...

Although I never had reboots, I got a wintec class 10 16gb which tests very fast, although the random writes test slowly. With that card I could not run android very well at all. So I bought a sandisk class 2 (which tests in the class 10 range) but the random writes are faster than the wintec, and Andriod runs great. I have a adata class 6 8gb card and though it doesn't test as fast as the 16gb cards, the random writes are the fastest of the 3 and android runs well on it. Here's my scenario:

Sandisk 16gb Class 2 20.75Mb/s read 14.36Mb/s write Runs Android very well

512K random 20.03Mb/s read 2.3 Mb/s write

4k random 4Mb/s read 0.018Mb/s write

Adata 8gb class 6 14Mb/s read 9.5Mb/s write Runs Android very well

512k random 12Mb/s read 3.5Mb/s write

4k random 4.5Mb/s read 0.021Mb/s write

Wintec 16gb class 10 18.5Mb/s read 14.5Mb/s write No reboots, but not smooth

512k random 14 Mb/s read 1.4 Mb/s write with andriod at all. Freezes

4k random 4 Mb/s read 0.006Mb/s write constantly and drops data.

"Kingston" SD-cards in the past have just been various rebranded OEMs. I'll assume this is still the case with their micro-sd cards, which just adds to the difficulty of what this thread is trying to accomplish. Often times they'd just put their sticker label right over the original brand name on the card plastic itself. They're not the only company that does this either. But, as an example, stating a comment like "Kingston have the best results"(not quoted) sadly doesn't really help solve this :(

You'd want to read the CID info off the card which will tell you serial, manufacturer ID, etc... On my Darkstone Super Ram build, I believe it's at /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:e624 The last directory may vary on build, but if you cat the items in there you get the info back, I just don't have a list of corresponding manufacturer ID codes. I'm sure there's someone that knows a lot more about that stuff than I (which isn't much, I just know it's there).
