Hey folks, I was hoping you could help me with this one. I recently updated my droid incredible, rooted and installed the original Froyo Leak posted on xdadevelopers(I also ran v.5 of the patch). My question is now that I have froyo will I still get the same kind of app update notifications that I used to receive in 2.1? I have been running 2.2 for 4 days and haven't received any. Please let me know.
Thanks a Million!
i'm running the leaked OTA of froyo and i still get app updates. Go into market and hit the downloads tab just to be sure. See if any of yours say that there is an update.
I just got a new Samsung Captivate with stock 2.2 froyo build 1106, is it possible to go custom? if so how? i have been reading about how odin might brick the newer captivate i897. The phone is rooted and unlocked ! Thanks in advance...
i guess its not possible yet !
Hey all, I'm new Samsung Galaxy Nexus User so I need little bit help, hope someone can help me!
I I have bought Samsung Galaxy Nexus Android 4.0.1 ICS and I updated it to 4.0.2 in about phone section in settings! and it does not find newer update for it!
Is there any official update.zip for 4.0.2 to update it to 4.0.3?
I bought this phone from Finland and it's not Verizon 4G LTE phone!
If I update it to 4.0.3 then can I keep my apps and all other? (dalvik vm must cleaned..?)
and Does 4.0.3 have Estonian language?
(I don't want to brick that phone so that's why I am asking help..
+ why Gameloft games is not working on Galaxy Nexus? /:
and what is the best and most stable + newest kernel for Galaxy Nexus?
Thanks if someone can help me!
The latest OTA from Google on the GSM Nexus is 4.0.2, hope that helps!
If you want 4.0.3, you'll have to go the custom rom route.

Yes, it is a known fact that rooting requires you to "oem unlock" you phone... which clears all the data on the phone, including the internal storage... hope you read that before proceeding...
4.0.3 was never published as an official update...
Not everyone got/gets the 4.0.4 OTA update...
And if you have the CDMA Galaxy Nexus... all updates will come from Google by they will be co-branded by Verizon (i.e., they will have Verizon proprietary files needed for CDMA/LTE)... so you cannot get an "official" ICS update without Verizon involved...
Folks
I live in Taiwan and have an unlocked AT&T Captivate Glide (SGH-I927) running Gingerbread 2.3.6 (kernel: 2.6.36.3, baseband version I926UCKL1)
Read on Internet that if I only installed Kies,then I'll be able to upgrade to ICS.
But nooooo...it wont let me. Instead, it insists I have the latest firmware (PDA: KL1/PHONE:KL1/CSC:KL1 (ATT) and that as such it doesn't need to do a dam' thing.
Any ideas as to how come the upgrade doesn't work? Does it perhaps detect that I am not on the AT&T network? If yes, can I trick it to believe otherwise? Is the upgrade file/package available somewhere else? Am I misusing Kies?
Cheers and help is greatly appreciated

The upgrade to ICS was pulled by Samsung due to a few bugs in the release version, that's why you can't get it through Kies. If you are comfortable flashing ROMs and recoveries through Odin, read the development forum. You can find find the version that was released for a few days and patches for the major bugs. Otherwise just be patient and I'm sure an official ICS version will be released again.
As oldnoob said, Samsung pulled the update because of all the bugs left unfixed. Dev forum has the leak as well as the official release though in my opinion the leak is better, with the fixes added.
sent from my captivate glide running ICS (NardROM 0.4 Rooted)
And if your unlocked dont you have to backup the elfs file

Now that I don't know, only unlocked device I had was an iPhone 3gs (I know, dumb decision.)

Hi Everyone,
I have Galaxy Tab [SHW-M180S]. Its a korean version. I want to install official ICS or Jelly Bean in it.
Please tell me the link for downloading that files.
Also,
Please tell me the process of rooting it and installing it.
THANKS
First I want to mention that this is the wrong section to be posting this question. This question should be asked in Galaxy Tab Q&A
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1081
Second the last official android os for the SGT7 was gingerbread 2.3
ICS & JB are custom roms

Hi,
There is no official ICS or JB, but there is a port.
I did a guide, please follow it step by step and you will have your TAB with ICS or JB.
