Hey guys, I see some of you are bricking or not being able to update.

You can use this to flash to I897UCJH7 OTA.

Use Clockwork recovery to flash it...

Cognition is currently being rebuilt on top of this, deodexed and all that fun stuff.

This flashes the system folder, kernel, and modem.

Let me know how the GPS works for you guys!! I have gotten it to lock in my basement!!

Could you tell us what differences are in this and the JH7 we've had for a while? I assume the GPS is supposed to work better but anything aside from that?

Thanks so much for this!

Quick question though... if my phone already says it is at JH7 even after a 100% OTA update and had the Update Failed message, could I still flash this with Clockwork and have it function properly?

Should I wipe data and clear cache prior to doing this? What are the implications of wiping my previous rom.

I am getting installation aborted from Recovery Mode. Any suggesstions?

if a battery pull doesnt get it to work, then I would reflash JF6 with Odin, flash this JH7 OTA with Rom manager. :(

Im about to try to disable lag fix first, then flash and if it bricks it then ill flash to stock JF6 first.

Thank you DG. I needed the update because for some reason the one click installer thing wouldn't allow OTA updates. But your one click installer is still a huge help when needed. :)

First, breath, you are not bricked yet. Search in here for odin one click. Follow the instructions. You will most likely need to do method 3 for your download mode. (remove battery, sim, sdcard /replace battery /hil vol+ and vol- while simultaniouslyplugging in the usb cable) Once you get flashed back to stock you can try again.

Sigh after so many tries to update I went back to cognition with leaked jh7. Guess I'll be flashing again once I get off work tomorrow.
