    Does anyone know if this update works on the Infuse 4G on Rogers network (Canada)?  Thanks!

    “official leak” – there is no such thing.  It’s either official, or it’s a leak.  This is a leak.  UCKI4 has been thoroughly dissected by people on XDA – modem.bin is awful and drops data all the time, there are no bootloaders in the update package so you’ll get the infamous rainbows at boot, and no kernel source has been posted so custom kernels can’t be created.  Kernels based on the Rogers UXKG3 release source do not provide Wi-Fi or HDMI when used with UCKI3 or I4.  GPS performance is also extremely poor.

    About the only thing useful from the update package above is 30 FPS video recording, which has already been integrated into custom ROMs for the Infuse.
