Edit.... evan though it is coming through kies it appears to not be the official 2.2 upate we are all waiting for it still has alot of bugs . Sorry to get everyones hopes up.
Just got it installed myself... but it isn't really official =P Still a beta build that requires test mode and registry spoofing to install. But it's a lot more refined than JP2 and JP3
so is this flashable with the captivate kernel?

Hi Zilch
what are the known issues with captivate and what instructions did u follow to get it installed ?
how fast is it. is it requiring a lag fix
Wow!... They said September End, looks like its going to be earlier than that...
Any ideas how its gonna work with the Captivate and how to install?
Thanks!
I'm still trying to get it to get onto the AT&T network, and no I'm using the actual froyo kernel. There isnt a 2.2 captivate kernel yet.
These are the instructions I followed:
http://android.modaco.com/content/s...-com/316924/very-stable-and-fast-2-2-release/
Couple modifications though, I'll elaborate in a couple mins- but you DO need kies to do this

^ Working version of kies.

Means you still have the home/back button issue? and the speaker issues?
Yep, back/home problems are still there, speaker problems are still there, and auto rotate still needs to be toggled off

back/home can be fixed , autorotate i can live with it by turning it off
speaker is going to be the major issue.
Yeah autorotate isn't a big issue, although I'm having to revert back to get my damn unlock code since the SIM won't work without the code in this froyo build >=(
This probably isnt official unless a) GPS is fixed and b) highmem is enabled
Oh and also apps2sd
People are reporting only 300 mb or so is being reported, so bleh..
The only thing "official" about this build is that you snag it from samsung directly, but it ISNT official.

Yeah all this official unofficial stuff confuses the hell outta me. Why not just say whether it is RTM or not.
Completely agree, speaker is the biggest issue. Autorotate is petty and home/back is manageable unles you are the only one using the phone .
Any success in kernel for Captivate yet...anywhere?
Hmm, didn't see any direct links to this, all Kies so far...
have fun

Make sure you've unlocked before trying this... I'm screwed and have to wait for a replacement phone tomorrow since AT&T can't get my unlocked or back to working again =P

did someone tried this on ODIN with captivate , i am at work waiting to get home to try this .
Help!!
I got the phone last sunday (15th May) from o2 and from day one I have had this problem
I updated the Samsung app then It said that there was an update available for the camera so I downloaded and started the install.
It said it would take 4 minutes but I got a error message after about 2/3 minutes and it stopped the install.
Trouble is now my camera doesn't work and I haven't got the option of trying a fresh install of the camera firmware.
Tried
soft/hard reset
flash ke2 firmware
but I cant get the camera functioning again
Any ideas apart from taking it back to the store which I dont want to do as they have no more in stock?

Have you tried flashing back to whatever firmware was on the phone when you bought it? I know you said you'd re-flashed KE2 but was that the stock FW? Try flashing stock KE1, see if that helps.
The firmware that was on it originally was the one before the ke1 but I cant find that one on o2.
I will have another look tomorrow after work.

thanks for the link todo700
I flashed with the very first software but still no joy in getting the camera working.
I noticed that one of the options on the *#*#34971539#*#* menu is -CAM to phone FW Dump
If someone can dump their working FW with this option then I assume I can install it with the PHONE to Cam FW Write?

Yeah I wonder if any can confirm that is safe to dump the camera fw to phone?
I have seen on the galaxy s forum that they have successfully used the write camera fw from phone to flash new firmware.
It would be good if it is possible to do it this way then we will be able to back up our camera firmware incase any has problems like I am having at the minute with my camera.

Right sorted phone exchanged instore (gave me one that was reserved for someone else cos they had none left)
Phone is already on KE2 firmware but this one is locked to o2.
damn, I'm another victim of the failed update via samsung apps.
Unfortunately I can not return it (bought it in another country).
Can someone take a dump of the cam firmware and upload it so I can write it properly?
Partial solution -
So I reflashed various firmwares, dumped the camera FW to phone and tried to reload it (this failed as they were the same version.
If I disable auto flash the cam works fine, though the video sometimes works and sometimes does not.
Help me plz i also have this problem and don't know what to do !!!

Do you know any firmware newer than this? bcoz i cannot update again it says i already have the latest version, but actually i have failed the update.
I got the same problem. Any solutions?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Same here, anyone came up with workable solution to reverse the update or replace with a working firmware. If it was possible just to re-install the firmware using the update then things would be so much simpler !
long shot but have you tried the emergency firmware recovery option in kies?
this thread has convinced me*not* to update the cameras firmware!
is there a change log anywhere to show what the update gives?

Probably not. I just updated the camera with no problem at all. But can't say i noticed any difference, i still have the pink spot.
don't tell me about little faults i haven't noticed yet (or don't have)

Try reading a few threads and you will get worried, lol. Just a pink spot on camera, a yellow tint in the lower left of the screen when using lower brightness and a blue tint when rotating. Those are just the screen issues Ignore them if you wanna sleep comfortably at night
hmm, mine don't seem to have any of those

After so many hard time with kies , because i was unable to update my phone .
I downloaded the xkf3 from www. samfirware.com and installed through odin. . i installed it and then went through setting to register for OTA ,i mean on the phone. this has got nothing to do with kies or my computer. Ater 5mins the phone notify me with new update and i pressed yes that was how i got it. You can forget kies . It is not reliable.
No joy for me. I'm on similar free firmware as well

It means you are the first person to report receiving this update... or you changed the build prop. Either way I have no clue.

Why is it whenever i try to share with the community any new update , people seems not to believe me. I am not a developer , so how can i change the build of my phone. The only thing am good in is to use odin to install firmware on my phone . But this new update am short of word myself.
Was it anothe OTA update?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Yes of course , I got it this morning as soon as i switch on my phone
Has any body else got any of these updates?
I have just tried going menu/settings/about/software updates/check for updates/ but it returns with "no update available". If that was not how you got the OTA update please give the exact steps you did so others can try this out. I am in the UK on O2 running stock KF3.
If nobody else is getting these updates then my _guess_ is that you are some how getting test updates reserved for Samsung staff.
And no I don't have any inside info into thier numbering system.
Yep one person only the whole wide world gets the update . Something wrong if it was a proper OTA update many more would be posting .
jje
I agree, i believe the OP is telling lies
plain and simple..
intratech in his post# (in this thread itself) has shown that he has captured baseband version I9100KH3 but i am sure OTA is not the way right now to get this update
The OP has been flashing firmwares here and there and claiming he is getting it from OTA.... white lies black lies...all lies
It is possible that the OP is some how getting test updates reserved for Samsung staff and for Samsung testing. Samsung are not intending that these OTA updates go to his phone.
I went to the samsung website and the latest firmware download is Kies_2.0.2.11071_128.exe dated the 24th of August 2011.
I am not at home to install and test this out.

possible...and weird
Maybe my phone is mainly build for samsung update eventhough i am not samsung memeber of staff. All what i know is i have got the update via OTA this morning . I have not hacked or do anything to my phone .
I believe the update is a Samsung problem as KH3 is replaced by KH5 that was a single user OTA update .
Plus OTA has never worked for most users .
jje
This all sounds way too odd for me.
Firstly, the OP gets KH5 then suddenly he gets a DUMMY firmware OTA.
Either something is wrong with Samsung OTA updating for this device or its all a crock of s**t.
No one else had anything like this so my advise is perform a system dump and give someone that knows their stuff to look at it like a developer...PM them perhaps?
If not, I dont believe it.

EDIT: yes , the kernel is needed..just updated to official kj4
EDIT2: after update...i didn't like it much, and just restore my nadroid backup (vr3.0 KI4,syiah2.1.1)...unfortunately, my baseband remain I9100BVKJ4. Maybe with this baseband, the usb jig exploit will not work anymore ...i will test it tomorrow at work
It's version KJ4.
