[Captivate General] retrogreq:
I flashed cog4, and really liked the battery life, but i was getting random shutdowns, so i went to ff2.3. Im going to stick with this till a new KB1 rom comes out.....screw stock roms.

that battery life is with moderate internet usage/music, and sleeping for 5 hours...am i just lucky that my phone can go 2 days before i have to charge it? (with light to moderate usage)
[Captivate General] rajendra82:
I am on the stock AT&T KB1 ROM, but I hand removed the bloatware, and enabled sideloading, tethering, and Mobile AP, and swapped in the Voodoo injected kernel and Plumbbob 0.91 GPS fix. My phone also currently lasts 24 hours, GPS works, and Quadrant scores is 1550. Once the KB1 source code hits, I am sure there will be OC/UV/BLN/Voodoo Sound/Voodoo Color/Himem kernels to add the other funtionality. I am not saying you made a bad choice with your ROM. The differences are just not all that great to me.
[Captivate General] zizzerboy:
Same with me!
[Captivate General] Pierce533:
I refuse to flash my Captivate to AT&T 2.2. My wife has it on her phone and so I have an advantage of being able to check it out without flashing, but I haven't found anything about it more compelling than Paragon 6 which I use. Paragon 6 is stable, does everything I need it to do (including blue tooth), and has nice features which can't be found on stock 2.2 (HSPA, many options through shutdown menu, etc. etc.).

I am looking forward to seeing what comes out based on the latest AT&T Rom, but it isn't 2.2.1 and I see no need going back when my current ROM is rock solid.
[Captivate General] longr6:
Why would I downgrade to AT&T 2.2

After months of anticipation and feeling burned not getting the update and after loading Paragon 6, I have no intention of ever waiting for them again. I will have 2.3 before they ever see their first update on 2.2. I dont think I will ever run stock rom again unless it is just to reflash to something else. It feels great to be free.
[Captivate General] jhernand1102:
AT&T Update....Yeah right. Thanks but no thanks.
[Captivate General] Scott_S:
Well, I wouldn't expect people who've already flashed custom ROMs to all of the sudden go to the stock ROM, just for the sake of it being stock.

I was on the verge of flashing a custom ROM for the first time, just a couple of days before the update happened.

Thing is, I wanted the stock update to be able to say to ATT, "Look, even your update hasn't resolved these basic problems with the phone, how are you gonna make me a happy customer?", if that's the route I choose to go.

Even with all the ROMS and whatnot, I'll still NEVER have the confidence that this phone is performing as advertised, as it should, out of the box.

And I'll never fully trust a Samsung phone. That damage has been done, and is permanent.
[Captivate General] Johnnie5000:
Tried it for about half an hour. Sucked.
[Captivate General] Mr.Immaculate:
I wouldn't say that I "refuse" to, I just don't see the point.

There is nothing really to gain from what the devs have given us, months ago. I'm more interested in when they get to start looking through the source.
[Captivate General] clemmie:
That's too bad you guys are so disappointed. I am enjoying the Rogers Froyo. I have great data speed, battery life, and gps performance. But I must admit, with the Voodoo kernel w/ clockwork derived from it's own stock, rooting, AdFree installed, bloatware removed, and Juice Defender, I guess it's far from stock.

To each their own, I suppose? It beats being in the Apple Corps...
[Captivate General] viny2cool:
I am on Darky's with awesome themes. I will never go back to sucking stock with bloatware and disabled phone. I like how I can tweak everything on my cappy and can use features from I9000.

and yes I agree going back to 2.2 from 2.2.1 will be stepping down....
[Captivate General] pumasmedina7:
Paragon rc6 really good not even thinking about trying froyo from att
[Captivate General] nonbeliever:
Dont update

So basically the only reason I even rooted and used a custom ROM in the first place was that ATT removed MobileAP (Hotspot). Im now concerned with all the fancy looks and functions. Android already does way more than one can expect from a smartphone. They have finally added Mobile hotspot again. Downside... they have also added something that forces you to purchase an additional tethering and hotspot package in order to use the funtion. NAH!!! I am grandfathered into ATT's old unlimited data plan. I am not gonna purchase an extra package just to use thier official ROM. Way to mess up another update ATT.
[Captivate General] axis01:
Andromeda is based on 2.2 and no one seems to be too disappointed in it.

It is worth developing for the sake of having ALL our chipsets working properly. I do think the Devs will make it better with time. Exactly what "advancements" does 2.2.1 give you over 2.2? Who here is actually going to run the stock 2.2 without rooting and sideloading? Saying you don't want the bloatware is rediculous. We all know how to get rid of it.

I find it funny how there were DOZENS of threads complaining that ATT/Samsung hasn't released Froyo yet now it's worthless. Did they really think it was going to be the second coming? It is what it is, FROYO 2.2. Try it, mod it, if you don't like it, switch.
[Captivate General] axis01:
Um, you do know you can bypass that, don't you?
[Captivate General] opcow:
I flashed SGSUCKB1 just to see how it runs.
[Captivate General] Bruce Inman:
I guess my point is "AT$T = Too little too late."
[Captivate General] qynt:
No way going back to stock after I got the courage to root, remove bloatware and then flash Paragon 6, an awesome ROM. Great battery life and GPS.

I'll be waiting for the developers not ATT to finish Gingerbread.
[Captivate General] rajendra82:
You don't have to purchase anything, just delete the tethering manager apk file, and the tethering functionality remains without the requirement to verify that you have bought it. Ignore the little nag banner.
[Captivate General] TommyZee:
Flash flash flash

Update was smooth with no problems.

Rooting & CWM was a pain in the ass to get going.

Deleted all AT&T crap and added some goodies, seems to be working fine.

No issues @all with stock 2.2, always had WiFi issues with cooked ROMs.

IMO everything works. Ain't so bad, try it, if you don't like it Re-FLASH. :cool:
[Captivate General] cesierra:
I'm using Ultimate. I have no need to flash again until Gingerbread.

At&t 2.2 rom

Right here!! I rooted 2.1 (Eclair) and did actually flash the leaked 2.2.

I ripped it right out and swapped over to Cognition (about 2.X ...and I just upgraded to 4.1). Matter of fact, I have a spare (junky, albeit) Captivate. I just might try an experiment with a generic Android rom (from google) and see how well it does. I already imagine the camera won't work ! :D
[Captivate General] cappysw10:
Tried stock, twice, came from fresh (or so I thought) JF6. Had force close issues on boot but it would go through. Then things would go wonky.

Back to the old reliable Cogintion 4.1 for me. It's the same thing anyway with Voodoo lagfix.

#NeverAgain
[Captivate General] ACDYZG:
No thanks, I'm pretty sure I'm just gonna stick with Serendipity 5.12
[Captivate General] brasus:
I flashed Cognition 4.1 since my phone was not able to be updated due to lack of understanding how to reflash my original rom.

I have no complains and from what I have read here, I'm staying away as much as possible. I did upgrade my wife phone through AT&T and so far, I see no reason why even bother with them.

We are blessed to have so many people willing to create roms free of charge and be 100 times better then AT&T.

The only complain that I have is that the GPS, takes a while to lock in.
[Captivate General] egypt3:
I'm not going back to stock, ever. I'll never use stock firmware, ever, for any phone.

Any time I buy a new phone, I'm going to take it out of the box, play with it for about two minutes and then root the hell out of it.
[Captivate General] droid330:

[Captivate General] vaiol123:
I was using a kitchen rom with speedmod, and I must say, the att rom runs a lot nicer than the i9000 rom did, and the phone feels more, proper. Even the notification bar pulls down more smoothly. I am rooted and unlocked and have sideliading enabled, of course, but other than that, every thing is stock and definitely isn't a down grade. Just gotta install a gps fix and I think I have a rom to stick with.
[Captivate General] NISMOFO:
I really want know know what I "paid" for with AT&T......so I'm going to try out the official release tonight just because the delay in this release was the entire reason I rooted & ROM'd my phone in the first place.

Super one click. Install from your pc. Rooting does void warranty but you may be able to flash back to stock or un-root if you ever need to send it back. Unless you brick it but that way they prabably wouldn't know either.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evil-doer:
ive never rooted my phone before and this gps aids program does not seem to work without it rooted. so i tried that z4root program.. i am trying a temp root just to be careful and for some reason everything is running super slow, hanging, phone is making short vibrates, etc.

is the galaxy s not compatible with the temp root method? im scared that something similar will happen if i do the full root and screw up my phone.

edit: now its completely frozen with a black screen. im very scared to try a full root with this program.

Hi All,

Suddenly my phone gets stuck during booting at the S logo and it vibrates sometimes similar to FC-ing.

I have the feeling that some process keeps crasing in an infinite loop.

I havent touched the ROM for at least a month.

It was upgraded to JPY via KIES with reg hacking and it has worked fine until today.

Yesterday before going to sleep I shut it down and when this morning I turned it on it could not get past the logo it just vibrates and front leds are lit.

Battery is fully charged, screen showing fully green battery when charging.

I can enter both Recovery and Dowload modes, nothing unusual is displayed there.

Battery out-in did not help.

No lagfix, phone was rooted with modified kernel (chainfire afair) more than 1 month ago.

No problems like this whatsoever.

Last successful boot was yesterday evening, no signs of any problem.

I have not done factory reset yet as my last Titanium Backup was quite a long ago.

Questions:

- is there any kind of "safe mode" boot like in windows?

- I can not access its internal SD card from PC (USB), is there a trick to make the pc recognize it?

- any other suggestion before FR?

It is International Galaxy S, JPY, unbranded

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
if you have CWM recovery then i think there is an option to mount the sd card so its visible on your pc,

another thing. there is a safe mode i accidentally entered it a few months ago, what you need to do is boot up the phone and whilst it is booting press the left key (menu) until the keys light turns off, (or keep pressing the menu key) and then the phone should come up in safe mode..

i havent tried it with a boot loop and i dont know if anyone else has so it may not work..

and finally if you do have CWM you can do a nandroid backup thru that, then do a factory reset and re-apply the nandroid backup.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasahu:
Unfortunately I do not have CWM.

I tried safe mode the way you wrote but it did not work for me, neither worked the other Menu + Home + Power combination mentioned elsewhere, probably the problem comes earlier than that.

Is there a chance to install CWM in this limited mode of my phone?

the problem is that int sd does not seem accessible.

does update.zip work only from internal sd?
