[Epic 4G General] tripleoptic:
I saw this posted somewhere a while ago but can now no longer find it.

There was a # XXX XXXX XXX number or something that had your phone query or get added to the google servers queue so that it could possibly get an update sooner.

Tried searching around but I'm likely not typing in the correct terms.

*** I think the code I saw was for the Epic but could have been for the EVO I suppose since I had that for a while, sorry if that's the case ***
[Epic 4G General] tripleoptic:
well found it, but...

http://lifehacker.com/#!5719657/force-your-android-phone-to-check-for-a-system-update

Doesn't seem to work for me though.
[Epic 4G General] lazyart:
Did you not READ the article you linked to?

You might wanna WAIT for the update to become available.
[Epic 4G General] djstr0be:
me neither..i think an update needs to be available to get it...if i dont get an ota tomorrow ill try it again:)
[Epic 4G General] hardrock121:
going by the way these updates are frying sd cards and internal memory on other phones...i'd be wary to be frst one to try.
[Epic 4G General] AmericanJedi001:
Has anyone ever tried the check-in dialer code (*#*#2432546#*#* or *#*#CHECKIN#*#*) on an Epic? I'm not seeing any results whatsoever, it's like I've typed in an unrecognized / incomplete number-- which I suspect is exactly the case.

And for anyone who's ever had success with it, Epic or not, does it give any indication or confirmation when there's not an update available? In other words, are my results to be expected when an update is unavailable, but once an update is available it will acknowledge the code and indicate as such?
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
I thought this was a GSM only code, then an HTC only...but I think I'm wrong on both...
[Epic 4G General] tripleoptic:
I understand it isn't going to magically make an update for me thanks. But as seen on that page there is usual visual feedback indicating a successful checkin.

Either way I did not see anyone successfully do it with an Epic, so maybe it's just an htc thing or something else.
[Epic 4G General] daddymikey1975:
well, I just did a ##RTN# (on stock, unrooted, unmolested eclair) then entered my MSL.. waiting for full reset here to check for the update..

I'll report back once it's finished.

wouldnt ya know it, i guess after the 20 or so reboots i have done in the past hour or so it now works!
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
I tried to Update it to froyo 2.2 from eclair. I used oden3 and when everything finished installing the phone reboots, but instead of turning on it stayed off. the screen stayed black so i tried to turn it on but nothing happed. i tried to put it into recovery mode... nothing happened. I tired the whole thing with the taking the battery in and out and blah blah blah...nothing... it's a brink for real. i did some research on this forum and read everything i could, but nothing... i even consider buying a jig but even then, they told me that wouldn't work for my situation.. (the seller) I don't know what to do. i've tried everything plz help me i'll try anything thank you...
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Did you try using odin one click to get into download? The jig may still work give it a shot. Worse case is your out 99 cents for the jig
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
where can i find oden one click?? and what's the difference between this one and the oden3.... sorry i'm new to using android... i was a apple fan...
[Captivate General] zelendel:
The odin one click was set up to return the first set of captivates to stock jf6. What version did yours come with? Do a search for odin one click and follow the directions to force it into download mode.
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
i'm not really sure because like i've said, i dont know anything about android... i tried to use skype but it requires my to update... thats the only reason for my upgrading... but i assume its that... sorry if im a ding dong... but plz help i just got this a month ago..
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Ok go here and follow the directions to try and get back to stock. there is no official 2.2 update from ATT so you will have to flash a custom rom to get 2.2.
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
ok let me try this thanks.... oh do you think the program would recognize the phone since i plug it in and nothing happens.... not sound indicating that the phone is plugged in
[Captivate General] zelendel:
If it forces it into download then yes. The key is making it go into download from the off state.
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
that's the problem... i have no problem of putting it into download mode, BUT the phone won't do it... I hold the volume buttons and plug the usb cable in but it won't work... usually it would but not annnyy moorreee....
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Looks like you may need to make a jig for it if that doesnt work. Most likely something happened to remove your 3 button options so you will need something to force it to turn on. That is where odin comes in. I use the one click as that is the version that came on my phone. Some came with jh7 on them.
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
yeh.... just like what we've thought would happened... the computer didn't recognized it so the program is useless... :-( so what else can we do now...
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Now for the dumb question time. Do you have the captivate drivers installed? As long as you can get into DL mode then it is a driver issue with your PC. Grab the drivers and install them
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
i did already but i'm doing it again just in case... ummm can i message you on yahoo... if you don't mind helping me on there cause this is kinda hard to wait for a post... thank you mine is giotlekhongten22 if you do wanna message me
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
so yeh there's nothing else i can do is there????
[Captivate General] zelendel:
I would but I am mobile at the moment. I have had a few issues with the drivers needing to be uninstalled and reinstalled to get it to work.
[Captivate General] bobbylx:
Not sure I follow you here. Does your phone do anything? Will it go into download mode?

If so it must be a driver/pc issue. I have randomly had my Win7 x64 computer stop recognizing my phone. Sometime uninstalling drivers and reinstalling worked. The last time I did a system restore to a few days earlier and it worked. Worst case try another PC.

IF you phone stays BLACK, no response, no download mode, nothing. I would try a jig. Go to radioshack get 3 100kohm resistors and well... Go to the DEV section and look in the stickies. It's in a guide somewhere. But should cost a $1 or so.

Good luck.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
I agree I am also on a 64 bit system at home and have had the same issues. It is like the drivers are getting corrupted for some reason.
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
i guess i can try to uninstall the drivers, but yeh my phone dose absolutely nothing!!!! i'm so sad.... does this really mean it's dead for real for real... i just wanna hear the truth... :-((((((((
[Captivate General] zelendel:
If it does nothing when you load up odin and then hold both volume buttons and plug it into the pc then your only other option is a jig.
[Captivate General] bobbylx:
Heh, gotta love windows.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
Yup that is why windows is now my back up OS for Photoshop and a few other programs, other then that I no longer use it as my main OS lol
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
yeh :-((((( i guess i'll order on from ebay then... cause i don't trust myself to build one.. LOL... thank you so much for you help plz contact me if you have any other suggestions..
[Captivate General] kdwolf85:
I actually had the same thing happen to me a few months ago. I didn't even realize my phone was on until I went to go to bed and the phone was emitting a very dim light. I ended up having to reinstall everything and try every USB port on my PC before it would finally work and go to download mode.
[Captivate General] zelendel:
The jig itself is really easy to build. Just hit up the local Radio shack for the resistors and twist them together, Some say that all you have to do is touch the ends to the last 2 points on the charging port. I cut up an older usb cord to do it. Now I keep it close when testing just in case
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
ok... i give up this is not working... i've tried everything... so do i throw my phone away now
[Captivate General] zelendel:
No just get yourself a jig. Either from making one or getting one from the internet.
[Captivate General] Madtowndave:
Is the usb port you are using in the front or back? You'll want to use the ones in back...

i897 running Andromeda 1.2
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
i'm on my mac book.... but i'm using window 7 on it tho... so there is no back usb port... so are you telling me that i have to find a desktop and try the back ports???? sorry for the stupid questions im really slow with this....
[Captivate General] SlappyMcGee:
Do you have access to a windows machine by chance? Full 100% PC
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
ummm yes i just drove to my parents house and they have a window 7 destop... so now what do you want me to do...
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
I just plugged it in and nothing happened.... i tried taking the battery out and putting it back in and doing the 3 button thing but the computer still doesn't recognize it... but the way i did try the back usb ports... is there anything else i can do.
[Captivate General] SlappyMcGee:
I hate that you are having this problem. Do you by chance have access to a Windows XP machine?
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
i actually do but how would that make a different... sorry for asking so much questions... i would have to wait til tomorrow when i get to work tho...
[Captivate General] rwj5279955:
I hate to sound like a broken record, but I had the same issue with the 64 drivers. Every time I would hit install, it failed about 1/3 the way through. Untill I hit uninstall one day, and that actually installed them.

I do hope you get it working though, I feel for you.
[Captivate General] dlwoodjr:
Sounds like you need the jig...

My suggestion is to take the advice already presented and either make or buy the jig. Do this.

Unless you are able to get into DL mode, you won't be able to do anything. This jig will allow that. I keep mine on my desk as well.

Don
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
thank you so much you guys... i guess i have no choice now but to wait for my jig to come home....
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
OK so the jig finally arrived today and i poped it in and just as i thought... NOTHING!!!!! what can i do now???? Is my phone totally bricked for real???? PLZ SOMEONE HELP ME PLZZZZ....
[Captivate General] rnewton01:
well, you can probably return it to ATT and say it happened while you were updating to their released update today...
[Captivate General] KimmieLe:
they had a release update today???? and what else can i say cause i really don't know anything about the phone or android base phone... i was an apple fan so this is my first android phone... thank you
[Captivate General] rnewton01:
here is a thread with people updating their phones today. read it and i'm sure you will pick up how the update was supposed to go.then maybe say it wouldn't reboot.... up to you. i'm not sure how ATT checks stuff like this, but from what i've read, people have done the same (or worse) and had their phones replaced....

Bear in mind that this version is basically useless to anyone outside New Zealand and Australia.

You can "legitimately" download it from the market by using "Market Enabler" and setting your provider to "Telstra (au)".

Good application otherwise, also instead of saying "Road" when it sees the usual abbreviation "Rd", it says "R D" which is odd.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] kenang83:

The map can use in my country Malaysia? izzit is offline navigation? thanks

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] cdguider:
Legitimately, If you question whether it's warez, be a man and say it.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] knightnz:
That's why I had the word in quotes, no need to get snarky. I've no issue with you providing the .apk, but technically it's only _supposed_ to be available for free to Galaxy Tab users in Australia & New Zealand, hardly an issue because as far as I can see it doesn't support download of additional maps for other areas any way - you need the separate full-priced app for that.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] cdguider:
Navigon Fresh

This works, and when you do the steps outlined in post 1, you can download maps for the United States.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] natious:
Fairly sure its some kinda warez, just a backdoor in getting free maps, oh well.

Navigon is decent, google maps still "looks" better, but navigon seems a little more accurate, and its offline so thats good, the default voice it comes with is also much better than that pica crap.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] cdguider:

If people are having problems following the directions in the post, chances are they should not be installing it in the first place. I mention nothing about klies in the post (why would it be open, who actually uses that crap.

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] mv3900:
Hi:

I was able to get this running on GB by letting it run for about 10 minutes on a wifi connection, and then going into settings for navigon and turning off the 'use wifi connection if available'.

Navigon needs to validate the installation first, and requires a wifi connection to do so. It won't do it with a SIM card and data.

Hope that helps.
