I updated it and it bricked my phone, what shoud I do...
Explain......Updated to a custom rom? Updated the official firmware? What exactly have you done?
t-mobile sent me a update, so i clicked start update, it said it will take 10 minutes after restart, i been waiting 20 min now...
It might be froyo because someone on Samsung's facebook an hour ago said " Samsung vibrant tmobile USA running froyo finally i love it thanks for the update finally."

sadface that it bricked you, whether it's froyo or not.
so what should i do
well, how did it brick it? is it stuck on the galaxy s screen or does it just not turn on?
its stuck on the vibrant screen
well to fix it, go to the dev section and look at the "rom bible". you will have to ODIN back to stock.
did you ever receive the J16 update? it could either be that, or froyo being released.

So take out the battery and put it back in. Let us know what happens.
I tried the CHECKIN method a few days ago and it would just bring me to the homescreen. I did it today and it just gave me a blank dialer with no numbers after I hit the last *.
Could this mean there is an update on their server?
stuck on the same vibrant screen
take out the battery, press both volume keys, plug into computer while pressing keys, insert battery. you should be in download mode. ODIN back to stock. search for the noob-friendly guide.
Did you have the JI6 update before this one?
im getting the files to odin it
ok good. just remember to flash jfd before ji6 if you are going back to 2.1
where is this ota update? i want to see it!
is this trolling...?
I would have expected more news if 2.2 really came out for vibrant

Hi everyone,
I am running Kang-o-rama 0.9 Final, received a system update notification at ~6pm, Toronto, Canada.
Anyone else?

Thanks
- Google incremental update (from FRF83)
- Totally stock update.zip for custom recovery and optional root/superboot update.zip

I just did a checkin and got a system update notification. My alogcat shows the same URL you posted. Could this be final????

I used dharani1234's post to update my stock AT&T N1 to FRF83 over the week-end, and I just got pinged for 2.2 OTA... it was a 520kb file, maybe I should have waited a bit more
omg, FRF85B...
same thing on leofroyo
Please, if anyone gets it on their EPE54B build, do not update until you get the url from the logcat for the people on AT&T models.

Just got 2.2 OTA notification while running rooted 2.2. What should I do?
I just got a OTA notification to update to 2.2. I am running Paul's rooted 2.2 FRF83. Anyone else get this? Tell me what to do if someone wants me to dump it. It says the update is 507KB
I will hold off until I hear back from someone...
This will delay the CM6 release even more now :-(
Huh, 507kb? Not much of an update.
Got the update on my EBE54B 15 mins ago I couldn't believe it, I've been checking everyday and was in denial when it said update found. I kept checking with the *#*#CHECKIN#*#*.
All I have to is WOW, really noticeable speed improvement.

I'm an ex T-mobile user with my rooted Vibrant uvij5 running on At&t. Will I be able to get the Froyo update via Kies stateside or will I need to make changes. I've waited waited for this update and don't want to miss out.

I would say update to an official release (JI6) to just be sure. So many ways to brick our phone so just take every precaution.

If you are on AT&T like I was, I never received the ability to get the OTA update. I was able to get it by using Kies Mini at http://ars.samsung.com/customer/usa...ID=2&PROD_SUB_ID=557&PROD_ID=560&AT_ID=340607. This is for the JI6 update, I hope it works the same for Froyo.
Well i'm on my local which is cincinnati bell. Also how do i know if i have the JI6 update or the JF6? i'm sorry for so many questions but i'm fairfly new to developing and am trying to learn as much as i can because this forum has so much knowledge.
Just to bust everyones bubble, the update currently rolling out is only for the I9000 model(base model) and cannot run on US phones. And I don't see the US carriers releasing this anytime soon to us and they always take the slow road. At the moment I am thing that a mid November US carrier release sounds about right. But I really hope that I am wrong!!!!

I hope you are right and not wrong, I wouldn't mind the update in November because that's probably the quickest time, we will get it officially. (now to 10/31/2010 will be JI6 OTA, so november sounds good to me).
Since T-Mobile took its sweet time getting JI6 out, with no problems unlike what I heard about the Captivate update, then I wouldn't mind waiting for it to come out during the holidays.

Once you open ROM manager there is a option that says "Check for ROM updates"
Under that it says "your ROM is not set up to reveive OTA updates. Please contact the ROM developer!" In those exact words down to the exclamation point.
That is for custom rom like cyanogen whenever it come out. The rom manager has no control over the stock rom

According to people, you should (assuming your t-mobile) but there is a high chance you might soft brick. Unroot yourself just to be safe when you do apply the update.

Since you're unlocked and not using the T-Mobile network, you won't be able to get T-Mobile's OTA updates but you can still update your phone officially by using Samsung Kies Mini (or if you're brave enough, you could be able to flash it with ODIN as soon as someone releases the update on the dev forums). ATM, I wouldn't be bothering with Froyo just yet since T-Mobile hasn't made a peep about it. I'll just wait for it to appear via Kies Mini (well, either that or just ODIN it).
Just been rls and u can get it from kies pda:ke7 / phone:ke4 / csc:kd1 (xeu) downld and installed perfect on me but i dont know if the root is in it or not
PLZ have something that will improve battery
Good news!!!
They really need to release changelogs for these updates
yep i cant reboot the phone by bootloader so the root is gone
Yes, thats why I havent rooted my device yet... I was expecting a number of updates to be rolled out shortly after release. Then to have to root again each time

Nothing wrong with the iPhone. If it weren't for Apple and the iPhone, none of us would be using this phone right now. People seem to get all anti-fanboy about Apple and forget about these little facts
Do I prefer my Android phone? Yes. Do I think the iPhone is crap? Hell no, it was an absolutely phenomenal invention and completely changed the way we use our phones.
Now, can anyone confirm that we can re-root the phone after the upgrade please?
i have to do it all over again but thats ok as long the updates fix the problems
Shouldn't come as a surprise that Kies doesn't let me have this. Where can I download this update so I can update through Odin?
does anybody know if this carrier related or from samsung?

You can immediately put it back in and boot. You should return to 4.1.83
okkk I already inserted my battery.. now it is with the old version.... it says that the update of the software failed. It only gives me the option of accept...
I've got another quest. should I update it... mmm but downloading the update with my laptop?? or should I leave it like that.....
I mean... I guess there is a reason why motorola send the update to gingerbread... no???
so how should be the correct process of update?
the last update I made it via OTA.. this one I did it to but is failed.
so.. pliss if you can tell me.. how should I do it... I am now with froyo..

Not available to me, as I'm on the 4.4 leak.
I'd flash back to stock right now, but the USB cable I have with me has been flaking out all day.
I'm excited to see if the official release fixes some of the issues I've been having with video playback. I'm getting seg-faults from several players while trying to decode MKVs. (Various files, some h.264 and some webm.)

I'm super impressed with how Motorola has been handling the 4.4 rollout.
Just got the Update Available pop-up on T-mo, non-Dev edition.
OH EM GEE!
I JUST got my Moto X yesterday and spent all morning unlocking the bootloader, flashing TWRP and doing a full backup. I figured 4.4 was at least a few weeks out (like an idiot).
I just caused myself a lot of work. **sigh** time to start researching how to get back to stock to upgrade.

That's what I am thinking. I backed up my stock recovery from another version of the Moto X I had (Mexico Nextel version) and I wonder if I could flash that right now, then unroot, then take the OTA.
Worth a try? Worst case is that I have to use RSDLite and start over.

I just installed it. It does feel faster than before. I dont have any lag on the unlock like some people were complaining about. New camera focus is nice

The lag doesn't seem to always occur. I only get it now and then, no idea when or if it will happen. It might take a day or two before you see it.
Well that came out of nowhere. Updating now.
Argh. No luck flashing the stock recovery, unrooting and then trying to take the OTA update. It booted into stock recovery, installed the update halfway, gave an "error" and then rebooted and said the update failed. Darn, I guess something must have changed in the system files to cause an error with the update
Guess I have to wipe it clean with RSDLite and do this the hard way.
