[northernale1]

now i get Kies error trying to download it,, it just never ends,, grrr

 

[iffrett]

where did you get this information?

 

[NickDblU]

When you launch Kies and plug in yer phone, it says that there's a firmware upgrade.

I just finished installing it Now my phone is taking it's sweet time to boot up... But it's on there!

 

[contradictions]

No change here in the US. Just connected my phone to Kies mini and it says I am still at the latest version. Keep us updated on what Canada is getting please.

 

[Culverin]

Are you on rogers?

Which version of Kies are you using?

 

[NickDblU]

I'm on Rogers, yup..

I used version 1.53

I was reading on XDA that people trying to do the install using Windows7 were having a ton of issues... I did the install using XP and it went without a hitch

I initially tried to do it thru a VM of XP on my iMac, but that didn't work

 

[iffrett]

I just tried using my Kies mini and it says I have the latest version. Does Kies mini detect which country you're from or does it do that by the phone? Im asking because I'm using an unlocked AT&T version on Rogers in canada.

GOOGLE GROUPS DISPLAY IN THE CONTACT LIST!!!!! FINALLY! I was REALLY annoyed to go from a Nexus One to the Captivate and not have my Google Groups display for the contacts

As for the Windows 7 issue, as I said from reading on XDA, people using Win7 are having issues... XP works without any problems. I think I read someone did a crap load of stuff with their registry, but ??

As for the AT&T Captivate, sorry... No idea The update might be associated to the model number of the phone? Since the AT&T and Rogers versions differ in model #

So your saying you have the official 2.2 on your rogers captivate? I have'nt seen anyone else say they have it on any other forums! I'm sorta not believing it. If so hope we at&t users get it soon.

[northernale1]

[synjun]

i had trouble installing kies mini and sync with my cap untill i right click kies, run as administrator. BOOM it worked. its a shame i was just installing kies not 2.2

 

[Phillennium]

Just updated firmware on Win7 64bit. Crapped out on the first try then said I had to go into recovery mode. Did so - recovered with 2.2!

Build number: FROYO.UXJL1

Is anyone using Kies Mini in Canada? I can't find it anywhere.

 

[slntdth93]

i used kies 1.53 on win7 64bit. got error popups but didnt affect it. Dock app works but i cant get audio out weirdly enough

 

[Wil_droid]

Confirmed - Just updated to 2.2
Samsung Galaxy S Captivate Rogers using KIES (Win7 32bit).

Same as above - had to go to recovery mode after Downloading the firmware.

 

[contradictions]

Happy for those of you who got it. Snap to it now AT&T.

 

[Baker_9_9]

Just updated 2.2

The Kies version 1.5.3.10113_29 give the instruction to switch to download mode in the update process.

The first time I follow the instruction as displayed but seem to not switch to download mode. So fail!!

The second time I pull out the battery before the usb cable, so the phone beep once and Kies screen show device disconnected, made the last steps and the installation go on till the end.

Someone can confirm?

Thank's and ENJOY 2.2, now Gingerbread, when!? ;-)

 

[Copronymous]

Finally! Real news!

New poster here.

Going with the wait-and-see approach on this update.

Brand new user - bought the phone two days ago. Sat down tonight to figure out how to sync it to my computer and started searching for how to use the silly thing (first smartphone).

The seller told me to download the AT&T updates so I did last night. I found the Kies program on my phone this evening, but it wouldn't "install" on my computer. I just downloaded Kies for my PC from this link

4.0 inch SUPER AMOLED Display, Layar Reality Browser, Android 2.1 OS, 1GHz CPU Speed, 5 Megapixel AF Camera, Music Player - Samsung I9000 - Infotainment - mobile phones | SAMSUNG

It says the release date was today. Is this new or an old version. (Still installing on my computer - Norton says it is safe.

US phones can only use Kies Mini which can be found here Samsung if you click on the software tab. Using Kies Mini you can upgrade your phone to JH7 if your phone didn't come with it (it probably didn't). What you linked was the full version of Kies which everybody else in the world gets to use (it will say our phones aren't supported if you try to connect). It was just updated today most likely for the Canadian users that need to use it to get 2.2 on their phones.

EDIT: If you downloaded AT&T updates on your phone using the software update button then you'll have JH7 already.

 

[jjsaunt]

So we are waiting for an AT&T release to use the program or a Samsung release?

 

[jam287]

Who knows, maybe when 2.2 is available for us they will give us Kies too.
