Post Here if You Have Received The Update

did the upgrade check and it started downloading and installed, phone is completely stock and my gps worked fine before the update...No problems so far but we'll see
 
Did a manual check at 8:00AM CDT today and it found the update right away. Downloaded and installed no problems. It hung at 50% for a ong time then completed. Phone rebooted and said 'Congrats your phone is now updated'.

GPS seems to lock much faster. Also, I DID have QuickOffice already installed.

Stock ROM, happened to restore (master reset) last night so was running pretty clean.
 
Guys one more question, are all you doing this with a fully charged battery? I'm wondering if the update will check for this during install?

Not fully charged here in fact I just noticed mt battery turned orange... need to get it on a charged soon.
 
Non rooted. Manually got it. Reset GPS settings to stock, Did not remove SIM or Quick Office. All seems OK. Indoors not near window so can't test GPS
 
Every time I have EVER looked for an update I get the message "DM initialization is not ready. Check Network or SIM card." It has done this since it was new, and I got the phone the second day of release and it has done it since then. Is my SIM card messed up somehow? It did this before root, and now it is rooted and is still doing it.

No txt message, and no way to manually check for me now it seems. :( Anyone have any ideas?
 
If I was you I would give AT&T a quick call, they might be able to confirm over the phone within minutes. Also, getting a new SIMM takes minutes, you'll wait longer for the AT&T representative to call you in the store than to get it replaced.
 
Ok, my update installed with no problems. My battery was fully charged and my phone is not rooted and fully stock. I didn't remove my SIM either.
 
I am getting the update is failed at 50%. I previously had root with the ryanza lag fix but used odin one click a few days ago to get back to stock. Does anyone know if this puts the partitions back to normal. I didnt see anything in my searching that was conclusive on this.
 
Not rooted, did a manual update check.
It downloaded and installed in about 5 minutes or so.
No issues so far. In the middle of my office building so haven't checked the gps yet.
 
I just manually checked for the update. The phone downloaded the update and rebooted with no problems. I am at 92% battery, but the phone is also plugged in.

Prior to checking for the update, I removed the one click lag fix and unrooted my phone. Not sure if that made a difference, but figured I did not want to take any chances.

If your SIM was from an older phone or a non Smart Phone, you may have to have the SIM replaced with a newer one. The newer SIMS are programmed slightly differently and in the case of OTA upgrades it can make a difference
 
I had to manually check for update. Got it and went to install. It hesitated at 50% then finally went to 100% when it said update failed. Phone re-booted then said the update failed. Checked settings/about phone and it shows I897UCJH7 as the baseband version. So basically no idea if it worked. I am able to use *#*#1472365#*#* to check for gps and it recognized 3 satellites but no lock. I am in a building and about 35 ft from windows. It would not recognize satellites before from this location. I am rooted with Unleash the beast and am not running lag fix.
 
Looks like folks who rooted their phones are having some issues and possibly not getting the update JH7 firmware. This could be the reason for many of them posting that the GPS is still broken. Wonder if XDA guys have any updates regarding the "Failed Update" message.
 
Manually updated my rooted Captivate (no other modifications).

The update process didn't take too long... maybe 2-3 minutes once it got to the white screen. After it rebooted it was on the black "Galaxy S" screen for longer than usual (this part worried me), but eventually brought up the unlock screen.


* Update1: GPS isn't working for me. I had previously applied the changes as outlined here. Can't get to LBSTestMode under this latest update, so I'm unable to put those settings back to default. Contacted @GalaxySsupport to see if they have any suggestions.

* Update2: Used LauncherPro to get into LbsTestMode (as outlined here). Made sure all of my settings were default according to this guide, but my GPS is still not working.
 
Not rooted.
Checked for update. One is available. Start downloading.
Plug in phone while downloading.
It finishes at 100%.
After a bit, I got error that device manager had unexpectedly quit. Clicked OK.

Sat there at the home screen for a minute or so while I was thinking.

Up pops an alert that AT&T has an update ready for me would I like to install it? (It will take 3 minutes and all services including emergency calling will be disabled.) Click OK.

(wait a few seconds)

Phone will restart in 5 seconds.

Upon restarting get screen "updating phone". Hangs at 50% for awhile, then proceeds.
Reboots again.

Stops at the animated Galaxy S screen for a long time.

Eventually desktop appears.
Then congratulations message appears.

Firmware version: 2.1 update1
Baseband version: I897UCJH7
Kernel version: 2.6.29 jetaek.lee@sep-11 #2
Build number: ECLAIR.UCJH7

Indoors, not getting anything on GPS Test. But I never did get GPS in my office. I'll try it later.
 
I just tried again, still get failed to communicate with the server. It could be regional I guess. My clock is already 3 days ahead so I didnt have to wait the 24 hrs!
 
I got two text messages from AT & T this morning saying to click OK when it prompts to update but no actual updates yet.

Having been reminded by FORUM posts I checked for the update, downloaded, and installed. No problems, just a little slow for it to complete the reboot, with the pulsating S staying for 3-4 minutes. I had not received an SMS from AT&T..

All is well but how can I check that I am still rooted?

What was included in this firmware update?
 
Just downloaded and installed. No problems yet, I can't check GPS function til later.
My phone is rooted and lag fixed.
 
Media Scanner is about the same on my phone, don't see much a difference. Sure did hang on that Galaxy S logo for a while during the update.
 
I successfully installed the update, GPS is still no good.Phone is stock, although I may have changed GPS settings. I didn't check them before the update, and the #*#* deal won't work for me any more.
