Does this correct the imei and nav bin issue from flashing other kernels...and will doing this install the stock kernel as well or will that have to be flashed..I see it flashes a kernel..but doesn't say which one...I've looked but really haven't found anything about going back to stock on this..since this was for those whose OTA update failed..or semi bricked their phones..

The reason I ask is I am seriously considering taking my phone into a corporate AT&T store tomorrow and see if I can walk out with a new phone..I want it as stock as I can get it so I will have no issue from them..

I have my Cap ID # already written down..but didn't get the nav_bin info before flashing a few months ago.

If you are talking about the newest full Kies application, the Captivate won't register. You have to use the Mini Kies version.

That's what I thought...but did download the mini keys...and it still wouldn't take...I tried the AT&T OTA from the phone...it downloaded it completely but failed at 50% on the install, and showed 2.1 updated in the menu... Sooooo I said screw it...and went ahead and flashed back with Odin to Jf6 and master cleared and factory reset then to put my update zip on the internal Storage..along with DG's OTA JH7 Zip...let it do it's stuff and back to JH7...

My IMEI # and my Captivate ID number along with the product code # are all correct...so that saves me having to go into the terminal to change anything...Now all I gotta do is to delete some apps..and 1 click un-root it...and I think this thing will really be 100% stock again...hell..it sure acts like it is now right now with all the lag and random automatic shut downs..

I'll be seeing what the corporate AT&T store says in the morning about walking out with a new one...got my fingers crossed...
