Looks like the guys un the captivate forum just got a hold of froyo release
if that's real (haven't read the thread), then isn't it a similar hw layout so someone (*cough*eugene*cough*) could use the source to get us a more functional aosp build for the vibrant? maybe?
If that's really froyo
Their froyo build is JI6
So does that mean the JI6 we had that we couldn't get encryption key for was probably froyo?

All the Galaxy S Phones use unique firmware revision nomenclature, so I'm thinking it's just coincidence...also the JI6 leak on Kies was much smaller, more in line with a 2.1 Eclair build...
I thought it was funny on Samsungs FB page someone told them to release the code and let the devs make Froyo happen for the Vibrant.

The leak on Kies wasnt JI6.. It was JI5 I believe, JI6 Was leaked through a diff source\

I'm referring to the .enc archive JI6 that was on the Kies servers but blocked from the Kies application, as was the person I replied to. Knowledge of this came out a day or so after JI5 hit Kies.
Noone was able to decode that one, but it was only 188megs, about the size you'd expect an Eclair build to be, and nearly identical in size to JI5, unlike the Froyo JI6 for the Captivate that is pushing 295mb, a size in line with a Froyo build for the international SGS.
..............ignore masterotaku beat me to it
edit
another thing is they dont just have firmware its some kind of odin/firmware one click exe but still i doubt that would make up for 100MB
I am happy for the capativate guys....
*looks at my Vibrant..............*
once it's out in the open for Captivate, it will be ported to us soon
hardware's way too similar
Does this mean Froyo will be announced next week for the Vibrant and release a week after the announcement? Hopefully
captivate users got froyo and root in one night. lucky !!
WTF !
I wish I bought captivate instead of T-mobile crap !
uhm, just curious, where are people getting the idea ji6 is froyo?
Because JI6 is the same build name for Captivate and that build is FROYO. To be exact the Captivate FROYO build is I897UCJI6

Because the Captivate version is Froyo-JI6 (as posted by demo23019--see below) and far later into the day when JI5 for the Vibrant was available on Kies (the other day), a link was posted to an encrypted file for Vibrant-JI6 so that is why people are thinking that JI6 for the Vibrant is Froyo also now. No one was ever able to get the keys for it to find out more, as of this post too I believe--I have not checked in almost a day in that topic.
But as the last few posts indicate, it likely is not and just an updated build from JI5 because of the file size not being as large as it should be. See what masterotaku post.

I just got the OTA update! I'm not too possible if it's Froyo or some other update. I'm currently on stock JFD FW.
How do I check if it's froyo update before I update?

OMG lol, if you are running JFD it is prob JI6
Oh, ok =/
That sucks, I thought they killed JI6 OTA's?
If your on JFD it's probably just the JI6 update. TMO still hasn't finished pushing JI6 to all the Vibrants.
I thought they did too, but who knows.
And I'm not trying to be mean or bash anyone but why do people get a message saying there's an update and don't do it, they come on here and post they got it. Do the update and check the Phone Info and see.

They did finish with the JI6 OTA, it was only sent through October.
I called several weeks back telling TMO that I didn't get the JI6 OTA and the rep told me that I missed the boat and that I would need to wait for the "New OS update being released later this month, which is better than JI6"
Take it for what it is....
OP... Just update it and check About Phone and tell us what it is
I bought a second Vibrant on 11/11 and I received JI6 on that phone on 11/13. So, it would seem their not done sending JI6, because my update was not Froyo and neither is the OPs, which he said he just received.
So could it be froyo? Because like I don't think t mobile worker push out ji6 again should they? Again i could be wrong.

He denies that 2.2.1 exists and says there will be no further update until 2.3 next year!
He advises me to download advanced task killer as that we sort my problem out???? er, dont think so!
If that's the advice you're getting then he probably doesn't know about 2.2.1 anyway.
For the record, Kies doesn't show me an update (XEU on JPX).

Can't find the thread.. but there was an email from samsung saying that they will release the sources tomorrow, JPY or JPX don't remember, but for sure it was 2.2.1
..And he claimed to be the team leader!
He also said that if i managed to download the "glitched" firmware i would do serious damage to my phone and it would be my fault!
Ialready have 2.2 and presume the firmaware is 2.2.1 but even with reg hack i cant get passed the "battery charge" message so cant update...
He said advanced task killer would resolve all my issues!
Samsung also denied the Nexus S existed
Just to let you know I updated to JPY this morning from Darky's custom rom using Kies patcher......going back to the custom rom!!
Also my wifes SGS stock 2.1 JF3 never been rooted or modded in anyway, is showing the update available too, going to flash that tonight!
JPU, JPX & JPY are all test firmwares, so the manager is technically correct, that you risk breaking your phone by trying them (not that they will break your phone, but equally they are not supported roms). They haven't been signed off yet as official releases. JPZ is waiting in the wings too, and we are told that JPY sources will be released tomorrow.
Whether that means JPY comes officially tomorrow I don't know?
Also Samsung have elsewhere said the next official release comes in December, without confirming whether it was 2.2.1 or 2.3
I think we all know it is most likely to be 2.2.1 now since all these test firmwares confirm they are gearing up for an official release.
Glad to great we are likely to get 2.3 officially too next year.... although the source doesn't appear too reliable!
I don't care it's official or not. Finally it works. 2.2.1 is the first _working_ ROM from f.cking Samsung. Not a laggy piece of ****.
So I will happy with an "official" release but now I'm using JPY beacuse I would like to use my phone. I bought my SGs in september. Now it's december and this is the first time when I can use my phone without any tweak or custom ROM. It's a shame on Samsung but it looks like it's changing now.

Amen to that! I think Samsung realeased galaxy too soon because they have so consern that they have a iPhone "killer" but they failed big time and now they have pissed of costumers that have a laggy phone and we are some sort of beta testers of this crap phone, just like Nokia had make too..realeased phone too early. But its seems with 2.2.1 rom we start from cratch and the phone feels like a new phone! at last!

Hmmm , just downloaded it. uses JPY modem and it comes with some weird file : Aries_I-P-SBL.tar. Also , bootloader update must be checked according to release notes.
Which Build Date does it have?
JPY Modem seems to be weird. Why should Samsung release "old" 2.2 Froyo Versions. IMO this is wasted effort, isn't it?
That's the bootloader that repaired 3 button recovery for some devices.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10128156
yup like baron says. he posted it during holidays. too bad nobody bothered to make custom rom out of it, instead clinging to jpy just cause its 2.2.1 and thats sad.
they think they're getting 1400 in quadrant because of it, not realizing that quadrant in jpy just skips writing to file system therefore giving artificially high score for this.
A little confused...is JPI newer or older than JPY?
JPY is an official release, JPI is not...
Can you back you your claim about inaccurate Quadrant in JPY?
If JPI is supposedly better, why does it have a letter code way before JPY?
Hopefully someone can clarify I've been happy with JPY based ROMs myself but I'm always looking for the newest/best
yes jpi 2.2 is newer build than jpy 2.2.1
never claimed this is better rom as i havent tried it. just expressed that its too bad that everyone jumped to jpy bandwagon disregarding other 2.2 roms that might be better. i can certainly claim that jl2 is better and smoother and less ram hungry than jpy cept for the dreaded network location bug.
proof of jpy skipping system data write test?? no. but when i see quadrant taking split second to do the test even on roms that end up with higher score and compare it to jpy that just flicker it faster than eye can see something is off. also cant restore adw settings or ireader settings with jpy something tells me something is screwed with dbdata.
Build date : 2010-12-11...
What is build date for JPY? Thought it was towards the end of December.
For me JL2 was buggy as hell and pretty slow. Plus the new 2.2.1 kernel is way better than any regular 2.2 as far as I know.
I'd like to see some more 2.2.1 ROMs come out from Samsung. More than that I'd like to see some Gingerbread
Anybody had a chance to rip this apart and see what it fixes?

I bet it's the SMS bugfixes that have been getting all that press recently and has nothing to do with laying the groundwork for GB or HC or IC or whatever else.

Need some confirmation.
I just received the same text from Bell.
There is a new version of keis to install. Once installed it's showing I have the latest firmware at KC1.
Not sure what this is all about. Hopefully a prelude to gingerbread.
same here , hoping someone here can post what this does for them , im not on stock and not really wanting to find out the hard way what it is.
bell.ca/galaxyupdate
So from reading the information, there is no word on exactly what is being upgraded other than software. From speculation, wouldn't that mean it has to be 2.3 at least.
I just got the same text message so I plugged into Kies. It says this is the latest firmware. I upgraded my Kies last night and I am still on stock firmware (KC1). So the wait continues I guess.
I called Samsung support and was told that they were being flooded by calls over this today and that the notification was for the KC1 update. I've been running KC1 for about a month now... Bell Mobilty Canada slack much?

KC1 compared to JL2?
Need some advice here. I'm still on JL2 (rooted). Thinking about upgrading to KC1, but I hear that doing so wipes out the root, and it's very difficult to root it again on 2.2.1. I also read that some people find the GPS performance went down with KC1.
So what are the actual advantages of upgrading to KC1? Or am I better off just holding out for Gingerbread?

You're misinformed. Rooting 2.2.1 is just as easy as 2.2. But it doesn't matter because KC1 is still 2.2, not 2.2.1.

Honestly, if you are 100% happy with JL2 I don't think KC1 would be worth upgrading to. Wait for Gingerbread or flash JVK/JVB yourself. I believe there are some fixes in regards to how roaming is handled but there's nothing you would actually notice.
The new update is just a modem upgrade that gives support for using this device overseas. It does wipe out root but superoneclick 1.9.1 reroots it easily.
Sent from my GT-I9000M using XDA App
i assumed it was for KC1 since i never got any notice from them when it first came out. The KC1 modem apparently uses a fair bit more battery and it supposed to improve using your phone in the US.
JS8 with the JL2 modem has been the best to me so far.
If this is the case I won't bother to update to KC1, JL2 works just fine with my rooted ROM .
Does anyone know if Bell is even testing Gingerbread?
