Question about which 2.2 rom

Ok I have read basically all of the 'bible'.
My rogers captivate should be here tommorow i plan to root and flash it asap. Which 2.2 roms have HUSPA enabled; only deo? Or does cog?
Do I need to do anything to my rogers phone different then an ATT phone before flashing since it is named 96 not 97?
Thank you and sorry if this has been answered... I did read for about 2 hours before posting.

None of those are explaining to me this script to change 96 to 97?

nope, i just linked to the ones i actually knew the answer too.

But any custom rom I install will have all the ATT bloatware on it?

In theory you will already have been rooted meaning you can always remove any items you consider to be bloatware.

Yes, i guess this is true..
Sorry I was stuck with an x10 until i lost it this weekend... I am not used to freedom... Sony can suck donkey nuts, I will never buy another product from that evil company.

Thanks, ill report back.
My new laptop is coming tommorow so I don't know if i will have time to take care of both.

Bear in mind, at this time there is no way to go back to the original Rogers firmware if you are unhappy with whatever AT&T firmware you flash. And you may as well use either the Device ID or Android ID app to get your device ID before you flash.
There is now a way to get back to stock Rogers firmware.

No way to go back? I thought after beta 6 of cognition you could flash back?
So even if i do a backup before flashing I cannot go back?

That's correct. ROM installations are not installed or backed up with backup software. There needs to be a ROM available of your shipped base ROM.
Here's an analogy based on a PC: You can backup XP; Then install Windows 7; But you cannot go back to XP from a backup of XP.
If I"m not mistaken, the closest you could come is to root your phone, install ClockworkMod Recovery, and make a Recovery Backup with that. (The PC analogy of this is 'making an image').
You could then restore that, but you would hvae a modified ROM. YOu can unroot that, and that would be the closest you would be to being back to stock.
One thing you want to be sure you do: after creating the backup, you want to copy that to your PC to be sure you don't lose it during any of your other activities.
One caveat: I'm not sure if the CWM supports your phone with your ROM, or if rooting is out for it, etc. You'll have to do a bit of due diligence before going down this path.

The only stock Rogers firmware available at the time I wrote that was a nandroid backup and no one had success using it unless they still had Rogers firmware on their phone. There is now an Odin flashable version linked in this post. People report that they still see an AT&T logo when they boot even after using this to go back to Rogers firmware (I do too on my AT&T phone flashed with it). I don't know if there may be other issues.

yeah all that stuff is ready, and i planned to do cwm, im fine if that will restore to a rogers FW...

then maybe ill stay on the Rogers fw untill either a completely debranded CM6.1 comes, or they build a COG off rogers... Apparently from my due diligence, the rogers fw has much better gps.

New to Android and just got a Captivate. Can somebody help me w/ software questions?

I am new to Android and just got a Captivate. I understand its pretty glitchy with the Samsung software and am wondering about a couple of things:
1. I hear a lot about rooting. What does this actually do for me? Is this loading a new Rom? Or are those two seperate things?
2. Which is the best software Rom to load on it with the best performance and least glitches? Is getting stock 2.2 Froyo on it an option or does it have to have the TouchWiz interface?
3. Whats the easiest way to load it?
4. Can I save the stock Samsung ROM in case I need to return and replace my captivate (warranty)?
This will definitely get me started in the right direction. Thank you!

1. Rooting gives you superuser permissions. Read about it on this site.
2. Since you obviously didnt read the site I'd suggest loading Cognition. Beyond that I'd suggest any of the roms you can read about on the site.
3. If you go to cognition you can read about how to install with odin from his ponack website. Just click the link to download and Read his site.
4. If you get rooted and install clockworkmod's rom manager from the android marketplace I think you can do a nandroid backup as well as a rom backup. I am sure there is a thread in general about how to do that. Just go read it.

Will the cognition rom root my phone as well or is that a seperate thing I need to do? Should I first Root , do the Titanium Backup and then mess with the rom?
Also, once I have Cognitions rom installed, I wont be able to check for software update on the phone , correct? I will have to download future releases from his site?

Thanks! You are helping a ton. I just want to make sure I go about this right. Maybe I will start with just rooting and not mess with the ROM currently. What is the advantage to a different ROM?
What is the best way to root? Are there different roots or is rooting all the same, just different procedures. I saw this one and it sounded simple: One click Root/Unroot for Captivate
Once rooted and when Samsung releases 2.2 will I be able to download and keep my root or will I have to root again?
Oh, also how do I backup the original rom in case I need to return my captivate?

You can use ODIN one click here on xda to return to stock. First thing you need to do though is search captivate dev section on three button fix. Make sure you are able to get into download mode as this is essential before modding your phone

froyo rom for rogers i896 captivate

is anyone building a froyo rom for i896 captivate from rogers, there has been alot of problems with people flashing to at&t roms and failing to restore their original stock rogers rom. This is the only reason keeping me back from flashing to an already available 2.2 froyo rom. I know nothing about linux, programming or any of that stuff and was wondering how difficult it would be to build a rogers 2.2 froyo rom or are there pieces missing to build it?

look at this tutorial:

i dont see how it could be THAT difficult to take the at&t leaked froyo rom and make the necessary adjustments for the i896 captivate. I just dont want to lose my GPS function (its working very good) and i dont want the annoying AT&T splash screen

If you know nothing (your words: first post), then how can you gauge the difficulty of doing such a thing?

I just helped one of my friends load the 2.2 AT&T i897 update, working fine on his Rogers i896. Soon as Cyanogen release something for the Captivate we plan to be updating him again.

At this point for the GPS to be fixed I'm pretty sure we need the source code or atleast a rom from ATT that it works 100% correctly with.
The cognition roms for the I897 work fine on the I896 -- thats pretty much how I've had my friends Rogers Captivate running froyo since launch week. You obviously have to load your own APN settings and whatnot though.
PS. Probably best to use the rogers modem file -- it's in the I896 thread.
Lots of people are running or have tried there. I do have some build prop changes and apn changes for the rom but until I have my friends phone back here to test them I don't want to share something that could very well just bootloop. Plus I want to try cognition b2.4 on there and adapt the changes to that since that just came out too.

you get the drift , its nto complicated , its just we need someoen we same interest as us i.e a candadian dev or a bored US one
btw I use all the roms and I just flash our rogers modem on top of it so my gps is perfect

well one of the main reasons i want to flash to a 2.2 rom is because i have read that it improves battery life and fluidity of the OS, i could possibly live without flash 10.1 and the use of installing apps on my sd card for a little while.
I'm on my 7-8th charge right now, could be slightly more and my battery life is average at best. Had it running 2 hours before i went to school, fiddled with it a little (a little music, a little browsing, testing out GPS functions) then tested out the GPS using Ndrive to school. During this time i had some ocassional 3g use (<10 minutes), about 20-30 minutes of wifi browsing, and about 3-3.5 hours of listening to music. I also used the gps coming home to test out its accuracy and functionalities. By the time i got home my battery was red.
I've calibrated the battery also, and used several guides to help improve battery but nothing that i have done has made any dramatic difference. I was thinking maybe a 2.2 rom could help with that.

Sorry, i m very new to Android phone ~~~
I wanted to flash my i896 into Froyo 2.2
but so far, looks like there is no way to get off ATT split screen at bootup right ???

It's been hit or miss with that keeping the gps fixed (depending on the phone -- i flashed 3 -- and what it was coming from or what the user was playing with -- mostly different cognition versions). The key factor there seems to be doing a wipe even after a fresh reflash, then it seems to work well consistently. Thanks for the feedback on it. I don't have a captivate myself so it makes it impossible to do any realworld testing on my own.

Yeah I'm too nervous to do much digging around there -- I think the first one is being kept along with the bootloader. Some other folks on here were trying to sort that out. The second part of the bootscreen is easy to change. I think we're going to be stuck with the ATT one until we see something from Rogers (2.2) or someone does some very tricky and potentially dangerous work. I just wouldn't worry about it for now I were you. In theory most if all damage you'd do could be repaired with ODIN but definitely don't quote me on that.

so far my flashes have been pretty rough.
I came from a nexus one where i could just load the .zip file and install easy as pie from there. This bul**** odin flashing drives me up the damn wall, but i can get it done, I have had this phone for a week and have tried many roms. I tried going back to stock rogers and it was a complete fail. When odin flashed back to rogers, i still had the stupid att logo, but whatever i dont see it all the time, and it would randomly try to download things from the market. Tried reflashing, and the same thing, except 5 mins later and the market just wouldnt download a damn thing for me. I dont have a reason for this but whatever.
I have tried going to stock i897 att rom and my phone will not boot, it just just a boot loop, so i cant even go to perception build, so i had to odin flash to cognition 2.2.
So far I am pretty happy with it... battery life is better than stock, no lag, it comes pre-rooted, but my signal isnt strong like when i first got the phone on factory stock OS. I want to flash the modem files only but i havent been able to find the files or the instructions how to.
I am thinking of going back to the nexus one, but am willing to make this phone work for me. Only one more thing i dont like about this phone, is the camera! Out of all things the camera kinda licks a sweaty nootsack.

i896 i897 i9088
I think i896 is the same as i897。You can use adb to enter download mod, and use i897's rom. In china, we have i9088 wich is Chinese captivate. It can also use i897's rom. No Bug, no problem.

[Q] Froyo, From Leaked To Official

As the title says, this is what I'm trying (have been trying....) to do.
I got my Captivate for Christmas 2010, I can't remember what exact version it was running, all I know is that for a fact it was Eclair.
I wish I knew what stock I had on my phone and all that jazz, but the one thing I never read before flashing or rooting my phone was that I should root and make a Nand Backup before hand. Oh well right?
Anyways, basically here is what I've done to my phone:
I flashed ODIN-1-Click for the leaked Froyo JI6 - I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears_1
had absolutely no problems, everything worked like a charm.
Next, I used SuperOneClickv1.5.5-ShortFuse and I chose "Root" and "Enable Side-Loading"
again, no problems.
From there, I proceeded to do the following:
-Install of TiBu, AdFree, Terminal, Root Explorer, SGS Tools, and Busybox
-TiBu Used to "Freeze" most bloatware on phone
-Terminal given #su root command and approved
-AdFree added, packages installed
-Within Terminal, added exception to WordsWithFriends to allow ads
-SGS Tools used to replace default Camera App to allow power button for capture
-Root Explorer used to replace TW_Touch tone to modified 5% audio level version...I'm sorry, but at the lowest System Volume this is just way too loud.
-Installed Go Launcher EX and made my phone look awesome
-TiBu used to Freeze TW Launcher
I don't think there is anything else I've done with my phone that is really worth mentioning. No Lag-Fix unless it was included in my JI6, but I do know that I have free Wifi Tethering.
Now, for those still following, after all this, obviously the Official Official (Not-Leaked) Froyo came out, not a big deal, because I probably would've gone crazy just using Eclair for 2 months (I kinda flashed my phone on the 3rd day of owning it after coming from basically a RAZR V3).
Soooo, in my attempts, to get the official version of Froyo (flame on me, I don't care), I have "Bricked" my phone twice on separate occasions trying to go clean.
By bricked I mean AT&T Boot Loop of Doom w/o the ability to use any of the keys. So hey wouldn't you know it, but I have a USB Jig now.
1) WTF do people mean when they say to Flash back to Stock? There are like 20 different things available, which one is stock? and what would mine have been new out of box at Christmas 2010?
The thing that Bricked me twice was JF6 which I though was stock, guess not, I'm not sure... I have no idea why it won't work for me or if I'm doing something wrong, or I got an incomplete download of it, it's title is: I897UCJF6-final-OCD-REV0. On the other hand, I have managed to get JH2 to work (idk wtf JH2 is, I don't hear it often, but it got my phone to turn on), Kies actually managed to recognize my phone, however I could not update it in Kies and if I remember correctly, Mini-Kies wouldnt recognize the phone.
And also JI6 also allowed me to recover from Brick-mode, which I Flashed to Originally, and obviously it wont show up in any Kies in any way/shape/form...
Anyways, if anyone can provide any info, help, or advice, I would really, really, REALLY, appreciate it.
What am I doing wrong?
Help?.......
Now aside from that, I know there is a pre-release version of KB1 running around, but has anyone managed to get a version of the Official February 24th KB1 out to the masses for download that doesn't involve Kies?

Sorry to bump this, but I'm still looking for any possible advice anyone might have. I've tried using the search feature but to no avail. I've found "similar" things to mine, however no one seems to either have the same problem I have or be in the same situation.
I apologize for it being such a long read, but I just wanted to thoroughly describe my situation in the chance that it would be able to further increase the capability of someone helping me.

Here you go, these are the two files that people mean when they say go to "stock".
2.1 is the "Official Stock" for 2.1 - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SBSMALFJ
2.2 is the "Official Leak Stock" for 2.2 - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QL6NX702
As far as I know, there isn't a Odin One-Click for the "Official" Official 2.2 yet.
If updates are free if you're with AT&T... How about just going to 2.1, then upgrading it by connecting to AT&T that way? Just an idea

Sounds like the build of your phone is 1010 or higher so odin jf6 likely won't work, but you found that out .
You can try this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36
You are already through half the steps, just flash jh7ota
Or you could modify your recovery and install clockwork and flash cognition 4.1.1 which its more our less stock kbi that is already rooted and debloated
Not sure of a cmw flashable kb1
CM7

Excellent! I totally forgot about that, thanks mcord11758!

Ok, somethin i learned when using kies to upgrade to 2.2. 1) USB debugging has to be on. 2) Make sure to UNroot your phone before trying to upgrade with kies 3) I also had the boot loop. Restarted in recovery mode and cleared all user data. That fixed it.
Also, think about upgrading to superoneclick 1.7
BTW, if you want CWM to work, you should shell root before regular root (reboot after shell root) and dont forget to enable nonmarket apps
GOOD LUCK!

@venomio: I already have those two files, but thanks for confirming that no one has released an official KB1 2.2. I'm glad to know I just haven't failed despite looking thoroughly.
@mcord11758: I actually hadn't thought about that. I thought that I'd be set with JH2 in terms of being allowed by Kies to update.....yeah no I was wrong obviously. I just figured the additional steps involved with the JH7ota would make Kies hate me more. But yeah, I think this may be my solution- although if for whatever reason it didn't work it'd just be really annoying. I've already had to revert to JI6 twice now hoping for the Kies update.
Out of curiousity, why in the world does JH2 work on my phone?
And what exactly does it mean to have a 1010 Captivate?
Still @mcord11758: Now I do have clockwork recovery installed (still on JI6 as I'm typing this), however for whatever reason, I can't seem to see any of the bonus features that it should provide in the recovery screen. I think I've read that this is a typical problem and I need to get 3e_Recovery or something, but I wasn't really sure how it worked or how to apply it. And the hold up I have on Cognition is the fact that I don't know how easy it is to revert everything back to default (like lag fix and stuff). Any info on these topics would be appreciated
@mrhaley30705: Yeah, I'm updated to SuperOneClick 1.7 now. 1.5 Just happened to be what I used originally, and for whatever reason wouldn't work any longer after further trying to flash things in these recent turn of events. Long story short, after a lot of pain trying to re-root, I realized 1.7 was out, got it, and it worked.
I will say that I have avoided the Shell Root as I don't fully understand how it works and I've gotten by using just the "Root". Isn't Shell Root un-reversable? I'm just worried about that since I'm attempting to get a Kies Update.
@Everyone/All: I really appreciate all the feedback big time. This has been a pretty stressful, long process even though at times it has felt fun and rewarding.
I think I'm going to do what mcord11758 said when I'm not at my girlfriends place. For whatever reason, if I need my Jig, I don't want her to see cuz she'll know I'm messing with my phone again. (She gets upset at me when I get upset at the phone). I'll leave you with a fun image that I saw from someone's sig once.
Btw, anyone who posted above this will have received thanks.
I hope that's not totally lame of me.

Update: It worked!!!!
I Officially have the Official final release of KB1 Froyo 2.2
I used the following as suggested:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10056254&postcount=36
Afterwords I followed:
http://ars.samsung.com/customer/usa...ID=2&PROD_SUB_ID=557&PROD_ID=558&AT_ID=368733
And I was able to get Kies Mini to recognize the phone (unlike with JI6) and allow me to select Phone Upgrade (Unlike with JH2).
One big thing I've seen, is that my phone is missing the GMS Updates, I do not have google's GenieWidget (News and Weather).
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, and I don't know if there is any fixes. I do remember though, that while I had JI6 installed, apk's of the GenieWidget I found around the web would not work.
I know it's probably lame, but I was actually hoping to get this, as I was trying to get it in JI6 as well.
Pic attached of my desktop showing Kies working.

Good stuff, great that you managed to get it going!

[REQ] Rogers Stock Firmware UXJJ6

UPDATE: 27/11/11
I have started a thread in the development section that contains all this information, please leave any findings or questions there, I believe members will find it more helpful there.
The thread can be found here
I have removed the file links from the OP to stop any confusion in the future. All files can be found in the other thread where it will be maintained and updated (if necessary) in the future.
Thanks for reading.
UPDATE: 27/11/11
Andrew_Low has provided a copy of his stock FROYO backup, which I tested on my tab and confirm that it is working. The kernel is rooted, other than that it is a clean ROGERS rom.
He was also able to capture the GINGERBREAD update, (which I have not tested as of yet, any testers please post your results) this is the stock update available from KIES.
Many thanks to him for this, if it helps you, hit his thank you button[/URL]. If you find this thread helpful as well, hit my thank you button.
Instructions on flashing are not provided. If you need these files it means you know how to flash your device, have flashed a custom ROM previously, and require this to return to a stock state.

Not an easy ROM to find is it?
Anybody ?

Any fresh ROGERS tabs out there???

I just picked up a used Galaxy Tab that has this firmware on it. I'm not new to hacking Android devices, but the Tab is new to me.
I haven't installed Kies yet, but will in a couple of days and can make a backup.

That would be just great, thank you very much, and I assure you that you will be glad that you made a backup for yourself as well in the future (hopefully not though, I don't expect you to have problems or anything like that but you know what I mean).
If possible, can you make the backup before you root the device, otherwise it seems to be a bit of a headache trying to get it un-rooted after the fact.
Many thanks.
EDIT: I guess i'm thinking more of a temp root than a perm root before backup

Sigh, I'm in noobville here with Kies.
Cross booted to Windows XP (I normally use Linux as my desktop) - installed Kies and sorted out USB connectivity.
I don't see where in Kies I can do a firmware backup. The backup just grabs the user data from the device.
It detects my firmware version and offers me the chance to update (which I assume would be a bad idea). Quickly looking on the net, you can 'capture' the firmware files during an update - but that doesn't help grab the version I'm running. Seems there may be a registry hack that lets you install older versions in Kies? If that's true, why can't anyone with a Rogers tab just get the old firmware easily?
Looking for a bit of hand holding.
Oh yeah, and device is bone stock. I'll likely root, unlock and install CyanogenMod - but I'm in no rush. Happy to try to help capture the stock ROM. It may help me out in the future, you never know.

Search for Roto-backup, it is a way to back it up bit by bit. It's a thread by Rotohammer, using his technique members were able to provide UN-ROOTED firmware, which are posted in the dev section. Have a little read see what you think.

The Roto-backup link was helpful, but that requires rooting.
Here's what I've done. Starting with a bone stock, factory reset device. I rooted the device using SuperOneClick 2.2. Sadly I had to run this under Windows to get it to work, mono + Ubuntu didn't seem to work out
I used the default "auto" method of rooting with SuperOneClick, and I did install busybox. In theory - if you really wanted to have an un-rooted stock, you could use the Unroot option of SuperOneClick.
Then I used the roto-backup script. This seems to have worked and I've got a 250MB zip file that I believe contains the stock firmware.
Are you brave enough to test it?
Files were zipped into a single file then split into chunks using RAR to get around upload limits. Grab them from skydrive.

Nice. I have a backup I came across but it's screwy and can't be un-rooted. The root method you used was temporary or perm?, the difference would be one disappears after a reboot.
When I originaly did my backup I used a temp root and came up with a file that I'm pretty sure was about the same size.
Brave you ask? I'm downloading the 3 RARs right now and will check it out.
Many thanks, will flash and tell you how it goes.

Well, Andrew_Low, it worked like a charm. The flash went smooth I will attempt to un-root shortly, and tell you how it went.

Glad it worked. Let me know if unroot via SuperOnClick 2.2 goes ok.
Why do you want non root? Warranty claim?
Slightly off topic, what ROM would you recommend? Seems any AT&T compatible ROM should play ok on the Rogers tab. I'm partial to CM being that's what is on my phone.

It is for warranty reasons, I have two tabs one was acting up. I did re stock it and sent it back but I wasn't able to un-root so I'll see if it goes through with samsung.
I HAD my stock rom that I somehow deleted (or just misplaced, cause I can't find it anywhere) Then I figured that I am not the only one who may need this, and since it is harder to find, I thought that I would try and help out the P1000R folks by getting a stock rogers rom for those who would like to revert. I was going to wait until I receive my tab back and see what they did to it and maybe have a fresh rogers rom on it to backup. I plan on posting it for members to have.
Our Rogers tabs are great for flashing anything on it really (p1000 related of course). Currently I have BOCA on mine, I had HC RC1 on it previously for a good little bit, and was going to put the ICS alpha build on it, but now since I'm left with one I use it for business purposes and require full functionality out of it. The tab that I sent back had OVERCOME KRATOS on it. Funny enough, this tab is the one that i'm always flashing different roms on and overclocking and plain old abusing it yet it was the other one that crapped out.
I recommend the OVERCOME rom as it is very stable, fast and reliable with almost no bugs. Combined with the bell modem it could also be used for phone calls if necessary. But experiment with any one you want until you find one that suits your needs, I found both my tabs hard to brick so I wouldn't worry too much if I were you. I can't wait for an ICS beta rom to stick on this one.

Cool. I'm interested in a clean stock ROM if one shows up, please post to this thread. I'll try the unroot and see if that works for me.
Open to pointers on how to soft root and capture ROM. Seems feasible, but I didn't find a way to soft root and give me enough to roto backup.

Looking for a clean stock ROM for Rogers as well for warranty work, thanks!

Can't folk use the 2.3 firmware from kies? I haven't tried, but if you flash the rooted UXJJ6 from this thread then use Kies to upgrade to 2.3 you'd be in an unrooted stock state.

Well, Andrew_Low, it worked like a charm. The flash went smooth I will attempt to un-root shortly, and tell you how it went.

Hmm, very interesting. I ran the unroot on my device and it did manage to remove the superuser apk, but beyond that the device appears to still be rooted - busybox is still installed, and when I shell in over adb I get the # indicating root access.
I suspect just removing the superuser app is enough to make it appear 'as stock' - but any expert digging into the device and it's easy to see things are not stock.
If I were to try again - seems zergRush may be the local root you want to use, then from there figure out how to backup the ROM.
[edit] Ooh... reboot and adb has lost the # - I still see busybox installed in /system/xbin/busybox - I suspect this is pretty close to 'stock' if I punt the /system/xbin stuff entirely.
I'm not sure I'm that motivated to chase this further - I can't guarantee it is 100% stock, and it's the same as dl'ing the files I previously uploaded and running SuperOneClick 2.2 unroot + removing the busybox stuff as I specified above. The only mystery here is really what causes adb to have root privs when rooted.

Sweet - appears I was able to grab the ROM from Kies during the 2.3 upgrade - so I've got a copy of the clean/stock Rogers GINGERBREAD.UXKG1 firmware.
Will upload and link here in the next couple of days.

Very sweet, I will post it in the OP for reference.

I will post the Froyo version on the first post for reference, but if you are willing to wait Andrew_Low is generously going to provide a stock rogers Gingerbread rom which I will post for you and others in the OP.

Gingerbread is here https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=61f79860d644cd72&resid=61F79860D644CD72!124
+1 to theREDlegion for cleaning this stuff up and making the thread useful.
