First off if this thread is in the wrong area, im sorry, feel free to move it.
Ok so i think i have screwed up so bad right now.
So im kinda new to the android family but i have had my new captivate for a while now and i have to say i like it.
Anyways my phone needed an update and i saw one called gingerbread or something like that, i updated it no problem and was pretty proud of it, so i updated my little sisters phone as well since she has one just like mine.
Anyways we was playing around and noticed that there was NO SIGNAL!
Wifi works like a charm but the signal isnt even picking up and i was watching a video and he said he had the same problem and he left his sim card in the phone while updating and i think he said it screwed his whole phone up (Signal wise) anyways i left my sim card in my phone and my little sisters phone and now we both dont have signal. I read around that i could install a modem but finding the right one is like a needle in a hay stack and since im not the smartest person when it comes to this i have NO IDEA how to install a modem even if i do come across one..i used odin to install the gingerbread and im hoping an praying that if i revert back to 2.2 or 2.1 that i will get my signal back even tho i wanna keep my current version i just wanna fix our singal.
We both use AT&T if that helps.
the one i downloaded was GT-I9000 for the galaxy s captivate.
