this is a question for the people who were able to download and install this. did this rom get rid of the touchscreen lag that the existing froyoDJ29 has?
thansk
unfortunately mine still has the lag..but someone else claimed the lag is gone..
So let me get this straight? Flash The rom, through Clockwork. Then Go to odin and flash JUST the modem?
How did you install yours? I wiped and flashed in CWM, keeping the KI18 Baseband and it is absolutely perfect!
Is the rom stable enough for daily use?Is it worth flashing from Syndicate rom?

The DK05 modem can and probably will brick your radio. Not the rom itself.

Even in the worst case scenario, all you would have to do is reflash D118 through Odin, according to the person making the claim that DK05 bricked the radio.
The sad part of this leak is that the original source will likely clam up and not give us any future ones
Let's all hope it doesn't get tracked to him for his sake. Very poor judgement releasing this out of what appears to be spite...

Well I just flashed the modem. No brick. Maybe it's supposed to happen at a certain time. Maybe it was never going to happen. Who knows, but I am starting to believe m0n0p0lykill3r's story a little.

What's even more sad is all someone had to do was say "We're not releasing it due to testing issues." And not "Not gonna happen" "Ohhh lookie at What I got and you can't have it!" If some simple politeness would have transpired, all of this spiteful rom stealing and spy posting stuff wouldn't have happened.

If you have a Captivate, follow these simple steps:
Do not download it
Do not flash it
If you fail to follow either of the aforementioned steps follow this one
Do not whine that it doesn't work
The device is yours, if you want to take a gamble on it then by all means go for it but you are responsible for the damage done.
We don't want to hear about it, we don't care. You were warned and did it to yourself.

thanks for the heads up tho, if he messes up i can blame him!
I concur. Why froyo I ask.LOL. It's still crippled. Eclair still better performing os. And it will fugg your galaxy. In fact friend bricked his vibrant. Laughed at his azz during dinner. I wait. CM6 is on the way. I will take a better performing captivate any day over a brick and another trip to the store.

Doesnt the intl galaxy kernel work, just that the screen is 90degrees off and some of the hardware buttons are reversed?
I'm not going to even begin to mess with that froyo.
@ OP
What do you mean "It does not work on the Captivate"? Sure it has some bugs like swapped buttons and if you enable screen rotation it will rotate 90° and there isn't a big advantage over the stock I9000 ROM but it DOES work.

It's like when I told my daughter one winter the heater was hot. She said it was hot and she wouldn't touch it but damnit she touched it anyway. When she whined that it burned her she got no sympathy from me either.

According to a head moderator at the CM forums (Source: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/8302-the-state-of-the-galaxy/page__view__findpost__p__85578, Team Douche has the same leak that Whiskey received. That means, CyanogenMod 6.1 progress will be accelerated and maybe we will get some Cyanfryoyo soon
TL;DR Version:
"As of last night teamwhiskey and teamdouche both got access to a 100% working tmo vibrant froyo leak. Expect much quicker progress now."
Yeah dont forget about Eugene373 also got it too. Im pretty sure it was Sombionix and Eugene373 who were the first ones to receive it. Just thought i include Eugene373 into your list because it seems like you forgot him.
I hope the stock rom is available soon. It certainly gives a little credence to the November 11th rumor if a official T-Mobile version leaked out.
At this point who cares about cm6? We got froyo thanks to eugene and sombionix. The way I see it the only reason were getting cm is because of them.

I didn't forget Eugene. I was just quoting what the CM forum moderator said. I wasn't sure if Eugene had that same leak or if he used some magic to get his GPS working. But, for the sake of giving Eugene some well deserved love:
CM has the same leak that Bionix and Eugene have

lol sorry I think that is so lame. leaks have provisions? Every high end android phone has 2.2, but galaxy S owners in the US don't, yet. I mean this isn't the secret code to WMD's....its Froyo, what kind of person puts provisions on the leak they provide?
I just find it odd, if the devs new they were getting Froyo last night, why even care or entertain ebaitr8? Unless ebaitr8 really did provide the system dumb.
anyways the whole situation is odd.

According to a post from Som (I believe, may have been Viral) on the TW forums, the agreement from their source was that his name stay out of it. I believe it's likely due to him being worried about his job, as he's probably a T-Mo employee. If that's the case then I can understand him wanting it to stay anonymous.

Nobody wants the name of the person who leaked it, but why hold back stock froyo 2.2? unless this is just a way to for the devs to force people to run their roms, by holding back stock froyo from us.

xDDDD too funny
This is my new fav thread.
***Edit This was a custom rom that must have been installed on the phone, sorry for the title***
I had an Epic that was purchased back in August that I traded for an EVO in December. After a month with the EVO, I couldn't take the on screen keyboard anymore so I traded my EVO for an Epic that was a week old.
It hasn't been rooted or messed with and when I looked at the system info it said it was running 2.2.1 Froyo DK28
Did Samsung start shipping new phones with 2.2.1??
I know 2.2.1 isn't official yet but I have been out of the Epic loop for a month so I wanted to see if this was a fluke or what.
Either you think you're being funny or you've got someone else's flashed phone. It's running DK28, which isn't a release build.
That isn't the official froyo build. It looks like that's a phone that was exchanged for a di18 phone back in december. Or maybe its a refurb that wasn't flashed back to di18.

Sorry, but we've had more than our fair share of Froyo pranks on here and I'm sure you've heard the story about the boy who cried wolf.
In any case, the unmodded DK28 is unrooted, so it's quite possible for this to happen. If Sprint gave you this phone, they're not doing a very good job of resetting it back to factory defaults.
That's for sure. I got mad as soon. As I read the ops thread but I guess he really didnt know.

I went from "GB? Who cares?" to "GB! Awesome!" almost to "Whatever." Hope reviews are great and prerooted flash packages are in supply. The pre-Froyo urgency just isn't there but at least they're working on it. And maybe it really does squeeze much more performance out of it.
They don't need to be releasing any final version until they finally get the GPS crash/force close bug fixed, that'll be a deal breaker for thousands of people if they release anything official with that issue still in play.

Exactly my thinking. All these people annoyed at another new build, meanwhile the one we have still doesn't work. Are they expecting Samsung to release it full of holes? With the current version rebooting and having no function GPS, I'm happy to see new versions hitting. Means hopefully they're actually working on the problem.
I still can't understand how what is now a legacy device can possibly give their engineers such problems with the modem and other comm chipsets. It looked to be all solidified in Froyo and now for GB it's the biggest boogeyman?! What are they trying to do...?
The problem isn't how many builds they're making, it's how long will it take them to get it right this time. No one wants the froyo situation to repeat itself with gingerbread.
