[Q] New to me captivate, can update firmware without data cable?

First off THANKS!
With that being said i have an att galaxy captivate, i am trying to upgade to the latest firmware. I am currently running 2.2 froyo.
I downloaded kies, kies mini, kies air
I followed all the steps to allow sharing with my windows 7 pc
kies air recognizes my device but does not promt an update.
kies mini seems to only work with a data cable which I do not have... I know.
What am I doing wrong? Or is firmware updating only via usb?
Thanks Again
humble noob

you NEED usb cable

Cant find the button but thanks EH!

Must have 8 posts to see thanks.

DONE
I was able to update last night
A lil more help if u please after installing latest gingerbread 2.2.5 i thnk
camera ics is now inverted. any help would be great or recommendation of a better camera app.... Thanks

If you are on gingerbread you should not have ICS camera, You should have gingerbread camera

I should have been more clear. Prior to the firmware update I installed camera ics app from google play. It worked like a charm after update to 2.3.5 I897uckk4 kernel 2.6.35.7 gingerbread.uckk4.
The cam was inverted, i uninstalled and then dl again reinstall and still inverted.
The gingerbread cam is on the device now along with the cam ics app, I kinda like the interface of the ics version
Thanks Eh!
Ok fed ex just brought my Straight talk sim card. phone is operational. changed apn looks good so far
Configured phone to straight talk apn
speed test very poor fastest 1.44 mbps down .026 mbps up
slowest .41 up .09 down
sorry for high-jacking my own thread but are thier any changes I could make to settings to achieve better results.

modems control data speed and voice quality. read about modems in development section (sticky). then start testing... to each their own you will learn.
ics camera *may* not be compatible with gingerbread... try some other camera apps, if it is just that one app contact the developer of that app.... but if he has a thread or website, read any info first so you arent telling him something that he knows or has explained already.

You're in the wrong section, here's the one for the I9000: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s-i9000

[Q] ICS: Update or not to update?

Ok.. I've seen posts cautioning anyone against trying to install ICS on N7000.. supposedly there is some issue with Samsung's ICS which could brick the device. I've seen warnings saying that even if someone has flashed the OFFICIAL German or Taiwanese ICS, they should flash back to GB immediately.
So.. what gives? Should we wait for a third ICS before upgrading..? Are these warnings genuine?

Yes its safer to wait for either a solution from the devs or samsung.

I see you are using Liquid Smooth ICS V1.. was that safe to flash? This whole ICS stuff is becoming very confusing. I actually switched from my I9100G to N7000 JUST for ICS, and seems like will have to wait even more! lol

Yes, very confusing.
And where is samsung by now?? They got our money with the device and again with the reparations!
Last samsung device for me.

Ys im using LiquidSmooth ICS Rom, But i had installed this rom before the BRICK BUG came into picture. I am stuck on this rom for now but i have no complaints as its running beautifully without any problems... i'm waiting for a fix and not using the CWM at all.
LP1/5/6 repack
LPY
LPF
all of the above have the bug.
Try using CM9 as it uses a different kernel. And go through thread before installing.
ICS running beautifully on SGnote but this brick bug is just ruining the party.

Ok CM9.. I see that there are many things which don't run well on CM9.. speaker phone etc.. any comments?

Waited too long for a official ics jow waiting again for fixed ics. .
I cant believe samsung made a mess but still i dont see a better android platform then samsung for a year or 2 atleast. .

hello, i've updated my SGN using the german rom, and till the moment i've not encountered any bug, only that the phone is bit slower...
is it recomended that i return to stock gingerbread??

Better stay in GB & wait for stable official/stock ICS. I flash LPY German & CF Root...my Gnote have issue with bluetooth (keep disconnect/fail when sending file) & date/time keep changing itself after reboot...weird!

if ICS works well it is better not to try , don`t flash anything don`t use cwm and everything should by fine, wait for next release of ICS or fix.
but really it is your decision (the risk used ics but also the risk of a brick note when you try back to GB)
J_Kirk better to wait for a stable ICS.

Thanks netoperek.. I've reached the same conclusion myself.

@ the moment is working fine with no bugs @ all..
wi-fi works fine, with no DC, Bluet.. also, text messeging, calls, games, facial unlock, etc
the only thing i think is a bit slower is the phone it self. for example is not as smother as before when playing for example the fruit ninja.
when i get home will do downgrade again and w8 for next release

Not rooted but can i update to ics 4.0.3?? So confused.

I just a saw a post in drip saying anybody with a note can update? It gives all the instructions etc so cab i or cant i? It mentions something about doing it through kies or ota and you dont need to be rooted.
Can someone break this down for me.
Cheers

If the ICS update is released for your country (or specifically the origin of your Note) you can update through kies or OTA officially
If it's not you can also use PC Odin to flash the update and you don't need root for that
However, I advice you wait a little bit longer until the issue with the kernel bug in ICS update gets resolved so you don't end up with a fried Note by accident

hey
so are you saying if the update is available for my country its fine to update, or just wait until the bug is fixed. cause the ota one or through kies is meant to be official. i dont fancy flashing any roms through odin or whatever
cheers

Yes, you don't need to root to be upgrade to ICS. And Yes, you can wait until your country OTA or KIES available - Yes, it is official in this way.
But... "official" kernel still having a serious bug which will damage your phone. So, the best is wait until the bug fixed.

U dont need root to install the official german ics. But its nice 2 have root and cwm for backups etc. However, after installing ics german i didnt feel it was worth the hype. Touchwizz makes it feel exactly the same as my old gingerbread. So sitting around waiting for ur official ics fir ur country is useless. Do what i did, flash cm9 rom and feel ics like google intended it!

Got my Galaxy Note...but...

Hey Guys I got my galaxy note today! it's awesome!!!....but...I immediately tried to check for updates... but after agreeing with the terms and conditions, it says "Registration is failed. Try Again?".
How can I get around this and update my device OTA?
Here's my phone info:
Model: Galaxy Note GT-N7000
Android: 2.3.6
Baseband: N7000XXKK5
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.XXKKA

have you tried installing Kies on your PC, then connecting the Phone via cable so that Kies can update it?
4.0 isn't available through OTA atm so you'd need to do the Kies thing

I'm doing that right now! Thanks! ... I guess my Galaxy Nexus habits are hard to break! LOL!

Sorry to hijack the thread but I also got my G.Note, but yesterday . Got it from Amazon Germany, and as soon as I took it out and connected it to the Wifi Internet it said that it had found the OTA update for the ICS.
I cancelled the update as I was not sure if it was worth it. I hear so many people saying that Gingerbread runs smoothly but that ICS is a pain. I also hear about all the camera bugs, etc that ICS has.
The question I have is: Should I keep with Gingerbread for a while longer or should I just update to ICS?
Thank you all for your advice.

I have tried Criskelo ICS, CM9, Stunner, Liquid Smooth and various GB roms. Even though I like some features of the ICS rom, I eventually settle for Chrack GB rom. It run smooth with good battery life and I have no problem runing all the applications I needs. I suggest that you use your GB rom for awhile before trying to update.

there were several updates to note (at least on mine, Base/Eplus Contract btw)
before ICS, and since ICS is not yet available OTA i think you can hit update on your phone until there are none left, then you should have the most recent Gingerbread version.
for ICS, see last post: Kies update^^
Sadly i already did the Samsung Kies update to ICS and now i have some battery problems (google cloud service and several other Wakelocks draining like a *****)
apart from that little problem ICS is working fine

Hi all and thank you for your input.
As for the last post from Aiphares, I can confirm that there is an OTA update for ICS for my phone.
If I hit update it says that an important 4.0 ROM is available and that it will be 316mb (if I remember it correctly). If I wanted to update now or later.
So I did hit later to see what your replies would be, as I did not want to be one of those asking for help how to revert to gingerbread because my phone could have horrible battery drain, or any other known ICS bug.
I would really like to have a working ICS on my phone, and hopefully something that would improve the S Pen, so that I could actually use it for my daily annotations (minutes of meetings, etc.).
Why can't Android battery just improve, I remember that from Froyo to Gingerbread the battery got much better. Well we can't have it all with these dual cores running in our pockets.
As for the custom ROMs I first want to try the official ones, and if I am am not happy with them, I'll read and read so to prevent triangles and than I'll try a Custom stable ROM.

Please do you people even read this forum?? If i was you and read all the threads about bugs (eMMC) etc. etc. i wanted to wait a bit more. Ok, you just might get lucky (or not) and wipe the phone ten times but if you're not prepare to go to the store and claim your warranty !!!
Please read the topics about bugs on ICS.

(thanks??)

good to know that there is the OTA update now,
well if you feel uncomfortable you can always wait it out, i'm sure there will be more ICS updates and bugfixes

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S Advance ( GT I9070 ) Performace problem at Jelly bean 4.1.2

Hi All,
First i am a new comer for this community and new user for an android device .
I bought a new Samsung galaxy S Advance(GT-i9070). It came with Gingerbread. It was actually a phone with 768 RAM-I clearly verified this with the shop when I bought it. Last day I upgraded my phone to Jell bean with official Russian firmware (XXLPZ) and reset to factory default settings.
But now i am getting following issues on my phone.
It seems my devices is very slow and Stucks.Specially contacts,Media player,Messages. Also full RAM Capacity seems 521 MB at Application manager. All applications are now consuming memory from total 521 MB memory.Where is remaining memory? How can I obtain the remaining memory to speed my phone?
Mobile-networks---->Access point does not show any settings to setup APN to mobile network.
Some people on web says to root the phone , install ROM manager will solve these kind of problems. But i have called to shop and verified that rooting will void warranty.If i rooting is the solution ,Is there any possibilities to back it to Unroot when i need my warranty?
I saw there is a custom ROM also available to Jellybean 4.2.Is it possible to restore stock ROM later if i upgrade to Custom ROM?
What is /are ultimate solution/solutions all of my above problems.I hope all friends from this forum will guide me to sort this out
Thanks in advance

relax

1. Root + install custom kernel. It will fly. :laugh:
2. Never had need to look for access point setting.
3. On JB you will not increase binary counter with rooting, like on GB. You can remove all evidence by flashing JB over again. "SU" file that provide root will be wiped.
4. Yes, you can use custom ROM, and then go back to stock by flashing stock firmware with Odin.

I guess you do not realize that Samsung has launched three versions.
LPY 7th January 2013: A very bad rom.
LPZ 21st January 2013: A bad rom.
LQ4 7th February 2013: Very good version. Stable and perfectly functional for everyday use.
Consider LPY and LPZ as a big mistake. Should never have been released.

Yeah, only thing to check is that you didn't increased binary counter before. GB have method to root that increase it. But you can reset it now, there is Shaaans method in developer section of our phone forum.

It is not location related, you will get updates from country that your phone firmware is. So if you use Russian, the you will get update when it come for that country.

Yeah. Just when you want to go back do not just use your firmwear, first flash things from guide how to downgrade. You have it on general forum I think. And rooting JB do not increase binary, like it was early on GB untill that other method.

That is the case if yoh do not use custom kernel with custom recovery. If you do, do not do that. You will soft brick. And you will have to flash firmware with Odin anyway.

Yes, Root + install some custom kernel.

Hi above solutions are worked for me.But it still seems the phone is slow for me comparing with original gingerbread.May be it is because i got bad experience at first release of jellybean russian version. It is difficult to change first impression So i downgraded to original gingerbread.Ginger bread is very stable and running on more than 50% of devices in world.so i decited to use gingerbread for 6 month untill jellybean become stable
