Yes. Yes there is.

I've found the ZIP update that takes me from the ERE27 firmware build to FRF50 (Froyo). However, my N1's running EPF21B, which IIRC is the UK shipping version. Any idea if I could update from this ZIP? Or if not, could somebody point me to the correct way to do so?
Android newb here btw.
Is it its update or custom Rom? Also are you rooted

Hi
I am using a AT&T captivate with andriod 2.1 Update 1 (build Number ECLAIR.UCJH7)
The phone is unlocked as i am working these days in another country and using a different network. I want to update my phone to the official rom update by Rogers (andriod 2.2) which came this week.
Can anyone here please tell me how to do it and that will my phone remain unlocked or not. Also tell me if there are any issues doing it. I am not using the AT&T network so branding is not a issue.
If anyone here could please explain to me with some links to the things i need to download to update.
Thanks a lot people
Cheers

Cognition and Firefly are both based on ROGERS CAPTIVATE!! You can use any.. If you have an i896, then you can do an official upgrade using Kies.

For Cognition: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=912657
Latest version: 3.04
For Firefly: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=914284
Latest version: 2.0.4
These are both stable, you can read the change logs from the OP in those threads. Your phone will remain unlocked, if it is already unlocked after you load a custom ROM.
The captivate has no official FROYO yet. 3 days back, T-Mobile Vibrant released an official FROYO update.
Hope this helps

Update unlocked, rooted & lagfixed Captivate from 2.1 to 22
Hello,
I have a unlocked and rooted Captivate. Recently in installed OCLF Lag Fix and did "OneClickLagFix V2+". It is safe to update to android 2.2 from 2.1? If yes, then what is the best way?
Thanks in advance.
Hi all,
I am wondering if someone can guide me to the correct direction.
This is my phone (samsung Galaxy I9000)
Model GT-I9000
Firmware: 2.1-Update 1
Base Version: I9000 DTJG3
Kernel 2.6.29 [email protected]#2
Build Number: ECLAIR. DTJG4
It is unlocked - orginally from Optus.
this phone feels very slow and not very responsive at the moment.
I am thinking of upgrading the firmware hoping that it will improve the persformance
Can someone please tell me which firmware will be best for me? I'm not going to root the phone and I am just after most effecient firmware (good wifi, GPS and signal)
I am not sure which one is most stable for my phone.
Thank you
you could flash a stock gingerbread rom.the ones with bootloaders.jvh is pretty stable.2.3.4 ones will have phone fc bug..you'll hv to root ur phone to get rid of that bug..stock roms u can dwnld from ramads thread..for gps/wifi/signal u will have to flash the appropriate modem.there was a thread comparing modems somewhere here on the forum.try searching it.if u really want near zero lags it would be best to do ext4 lagfix..but again rooting will be reqd.gb roms are fast without these but lagfix still brings noticeable change.
Thank you for the reply.
It seems that I am gonna need to do root on it.
If that is the case, It will be much appreciated if I can be pointed to the correct link (tutorial - step by step) to get this process.
After reading some of the psosts I get really confused with all the type of firmware and kernel etc...
any suggestions and links I can follow will be much a great help much appreciated
Thank you again

Read the tutorials carefully, then read them again and again until you are sure and confident. do not use if you dont feel confident.
Make sure you have the 3 button combo (recovery and download).

Hello, you can try JPY on 2.2.1, it's a stable firmware without the bugs of the gingerbread, if you doesn't want to root your phone.
Thanks for all the replies guys,
I just upgraded to GingerBread 2.3.3 XWjVN.
My next question is:
If I want to get rid of all those Optus rubish - Can you please tell me which firmware do I need to install?
There are so many types and I really get confused which one is going to work for me.
I have seen my friend's SI9000 very fast and snapy - is the firmware upgrade the way to do it?
Thanks again guys
Flash any custom roms from here CUSTOM ROMS
Dear concern, i am using galaxy s i9000, i buy it a 2months used cell, as it was using gingerbread 2.3.3, i doesn't know that if it was an official gingerbread or non official, i flashed it with custom rom's, such as XXJVO, XXJVA... and in those i faced some problems i cannot upgrade the firmware version by kies r itself by the phone, so i rooted with so called official version from this link (theandroidsoul)
and now when i connect my phone with kies it has the same problem "your firmware cannot be upgrade by kies"
Can you plz help me that what should i do to get the official version of the gingerbread. Thank u very much in advance.
Go to sammobile.com and make a login account (its free). From there click on firmware and then click on smartphone and then android and so on. Then find the firmware you want. There are also pdf guides that you can follow to tell you exactly what to do.
Yep, you'll need to manually flash stock before Kies will recognize your phone and it's firmware version properly and agree to upgrade it for you.
With stock on, you can still be rooted and do all fancy things there-in, but the OTA upgrades can and usually do break it.
There are also ROMs that are pre-modded/rooted versions of the official firmware that might interest you, and save you some time.
