Feedback

My experience over the last two days with this:

Overall the rom seems to do its job very well, and I too like that stock aesthetics and feel.

MMS recieve for me is blurry as well, hope we can get a fix for that soon.

Responsiveness seems to remain consistent with or without voodoo enabled, though I get very low quadrant scores without, around 1030 on average and around 1980 with it enabled.

I have been running Overstock 2.1 with voodoo enabled and have found no problems and the rom has retained the smoothness it already had.

I do not know what is really contained in the update files, but with the update is when I have begun to see a slight lag and a little stickiness in the menus and with scrolling.

I went to using the rom without upgrade, Overstock 2.1 and with S.Gps and all seems really good.

Would love to see the stock rom as it is in the op with an additional package for just the power options and additional lockscreens personlly, or all as one package..just a preference is all.

Have had no issues with charging, wifi, sleep, market, apps etc......

I like the wallpapers in this the best so far of all the roms i tried....its trivial I know...

Thanks for gift.

Anybody here use Atriarc prior to using this? If so what are your thoughts between the two? Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] jellette:
The update seems ti be hit and miss with anything other than supercurios voodoo. But, it runs fine without the update too.

I can check in here and testify that our EDT init, bin, and gps tweaks are running great with CWK as well.
[Vibrant Android Development] RobBull69:
After a few reboots, this rom is stable as can be. I did replace the mms app with the AOSP version. I'm loving this rom right now. More stable than Darky 9.3

Love this rom. I cane from atriarc but i like this one because its not so orange.
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Ran Atriarc for several days, just switched to this. Personally, I think this is a little smoother and cleaner (I themed Atriarc to look like V1, as I hated the orange). They are quite close in terms of features and performance (minus the lockscreens), but Im really enjoying this build. May make a few metamorphs to tweak the visual style a bit though.

2 day assessment

Ok, have had this for a couple of days now. Rom is pretty smooth and works well on all fronts. I am getting some pretty dismal battery but is very possible the kernel i am on but it is 10-12 at best with light to moderate usage. Normal is anywhere from 14-17. I REALLY like the stock look. It is very refreshing to have color again in a rom. Great job guys.
[Vibrant Android Development] YepMan68:
I went with battery life over speed...

--know what you mean about battery life. I went back to Overstock 1.5 which was UV. That has given me a good 20-30 hours of moderate use. 2.xxx was great because of the OC, but you're on to something when you say it kills battery quicker.

:cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] Smartassassin:
Do you like .5 better than .4? Funny thing is is that I was getting pretty decent bat life on other oc kernels.

Lol. I am SOOOooo unobservant. I didnt even see that they others had the V6 voodoo..... *sigh*
[Vibrant Android Development] angryattheworld:
@jellette - how does this rom give the appearance of having a boot animation with sound when I thought the kernel does not support it?

Reason being, I am considering making a version of the project linda sounds specific to this rom. There are several sounds and notifications in this rom that are not in others, like the battery full notification that was asked for a few times in my project linda for 2.2 roms thread. Never included it because most roms don't have it...

N/M, I have found out why. For those that run into the same issue, just goto location and text and change location to US. Some reason it's set to UK by default.

is location working for you guys? when i have wifi and gps off, google map is not able to locate me. Can anyone verify this?
[Vibrant Android Development] solaresdonis:
Why this rom do not have an option to keep the screen on when chargin? = ( = ( is it a bug?
[Vibrant Android Development] zimphishmonger:
Samsung removed that option from all SGS builds 2.2 and above, I believe. I think you can get an app that will do that though.
[Vibrant Android Development] solaresdonis:
Thanx Bro :D
[Vibrant Android Development] N_B:
This thing runs awesome without voodoo lagfix enabled.

For the fun of it, I enabled Voodoo lagfix. Runs awesome.

For more fun I put Overstock2.1 on. Runs awesome.

I still can't run overclocked for very long, but that seems to be my phone - but I guess I really have no reason to overclock...other than to show the other nerds my quad score is bigger...

Everything on this ROM works perfectly for me. Very nice. Trying some more EDT roms now though :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Rockridge:
I dont know if it's a bug or not, but just want to let you guys know.

When someone call me while I'm listening to music with wired handset, music won't stop, and it keep plays music until I answer the call. I know usually the stock and the other roms will stop playing music when I get call.

Beside this, I really love this rom!!! GPS works better than any other rom, and it's super fast and smooth without voodoo!!! Thanks for the rom!!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] phonepersonality:
I really, REALL like this ROM.

My ONLY problem with it is the abysmal battery life.

I'm running Tiger's Blood 3 OC/UV on this and I think I shall try changing the modem.

Which is better as far as you guys are concerned; KA5, KA6 or KA7?

I know YMMV in general, but I trying to get some consensus, if possible.
[Vibrant Android Development] :
Its not the rom then its having it overclocked. Im running with the kernel it came with and im getting great battery life. Just my opinion.
[Vibrant Android Development] Smartassassin:

Hey guys, im loving the Tom

However, landscape mode seems to be broken for me. When I turn on auto rotation, it flips and locks it in landscape mode until I turn off auto rotation which just locks me in portrait mode.

I have not applied the update because im afraid ill have to set up my phone again (lockscreens, launcher, apps...etc).

But does the linked 10 mb update fixe the auto rotation issue?

**BLURRY MMS FIX**

Guys, I've found a fix for the MMS blurriness issue. I know how important it is for us to get clear MMS. I've had absolutely no other issues with this ROM except that so here's the fix I've found.

I took the AOSP Mms.apk & wssomacp.apk from eugene's GCR3 Update1 ROM found here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1015303

And I used Root Explorer to just copy and paste the two files into system/app folder. Make sure to change permissions to rw-r--r-- then using Root Explorer for both files.

I've also modded the icons of the App to look/appear as the Stock did, but still looks like AOSP.

Download Mms.apk:

[Vibrant Android Development] Slow50:
WOW, thank you. I was debating if I should down load or not, but now I know I will.

EDIT: This is sweet. I did very little theme work, and I'm in love. GPS pinpointed me inside my house (I did the update).

Lock screens would make this perfect.
[Vibrant Android Development] jpcdeux:
Why will nothing install???? Everything I try to install via AndExplorer or RootExplorer says Not Installed....
[Vibrant Android Development] TJD319:
If you're trying to install the Blurry MMS fix, use root explorer to copy and paste the two files from my original post to the system/app folder.

Make sure you change system access to read-write before pasting into system/app folder. Hope this helped..
[Vibrant Android Development] jpcdeux:
That too.

Now when I install anything from the market it installs like normal but doesn't show in app drawer. Had to pull battery for apps I just downloaded to show...
[Vibrant Android Development] leduchoan:

Mister B it wont extract on our devices. it will install in our device but will not extract files. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=847206
[HD2 General] Mister B:
In that case the only options left are resco explorers built in zip software or pocket rar if it will handle 7zip.

The world of file compression would be simpler without 7zip !
[HD2 General] conantroutman:
The 7zip app is crap. It barely functions. I think that resco file explorer will handle 7zips.

You might want to have that verified before you shell out for it though.

[EVO Shift 4G General] SHMaRiM:
This is probably a really dumb question but how do I use the backups I've created?

When I flash a ROM that I don't like and I try to restore to an earlier backup I've created it is not working. It either says something about the MD5sum or just aborts in general...

What process do I take in order to restore the phone to an earlier backup?

And better yet, if I install a new ROM and don't want to go through the process of installing all my apps again is there a way to just restore my files from a backup?
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
You can do an advanced restore and restore only data to get your apps, etc. back. There is also titanium backup that is great for backing up and restoring between roms (the only way to restore apps when using a different rom... restore data from one rom onto another can cause serious issues).

If you're getting MD5 sum errors, the backups are being corrupted. So unless your messing with them on your sdcard, then there may be some bad areas on that sdcard and it might be time for a new one.
[EVO Shift 4G General] SHMaRiM:
Wait so in order to keep my apps I can go to advanced restore and restore only data but it could cause serious issues? So basically it is possible but risky?

and normally should my restore points flash just like a rom when I go to "Restore"? do I need to wipe everything before I restore?

I did copy and paste them onto my computer so I had them in two places... maybe that corrupted them. Anyways a new, bigger, faster SD card is in the mail so that's kind of a coincidence.
[EVO Shift 4G General] danaff37:
a restore in clockwork is an image restore, so everything in that partition will be wiped anyways.

[Captivate General] Kaiotee:
Hiya

I just got the official Froyo update for my Samsung Captivate (ATT) 2 days ago and since then the sound has been really sketchy. It would start to crackle and distort and now it has completely stopped working.

While looking for a possible fix I have come across a few others posting that their sound has stopped, speakers have broken etc, but no fixes.

Samsung tech support told me their only idea was to try a factory reset. Bleh.

So I figured I would come ask here and see if this is really a problem introduced by the official froyo update? or if there was a good diagnostic tool that might be able to tell me if it is hardware/software related?

Thanks

- Kai

I know everyone is busy so I will apologize in advance!!

I just read for hours and I found out how to push/pull apps via ADB but what I can't find out is "say I wanna switch to a new ROM" do I just put all my apps on my computer (using adb) then hit exit, flash my new rom then re-connect and put them back?

Thanks, Josh_Evo
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
Or, you can download Titanium back-up, have the app back everything up for you on you SD card, and then have it put everything back in one batch operation after you flash the new rom.

If what you want to do is practice your ADB skills, then go ahead. I only use ADB when I get stuck and I have no choice, so sorry if I can't help to answer your original question, but if what you want to do is get it done, you can definitely go the with Titanium. It backs up your apps with data, so all your settings, game saves, etc. will remain intact.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Nope. If you wana switch roms:

1. Backup apps using titanium backup.

2. In recovery, backup your current rom

3. Wipe factory/data, cache, and dalvik cache

4. Flash rom, reboot

5. Sign in...blah blah

6. Open titanium backup, press menu > batch > then run restore apps and data. Do NOT restore system settings.

Thanks all
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
I don't think there is like a pull all command for the apps, you'd have to do it manually. The easiest wasy would be to copy your sdcard to your pc, then copy those files to the new sdcard, then place inside the phone.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Josh_Evo:
Pull apps off phone onto computer

Code:

adb pull /system/sd/app app

adb pull /system/sd/app-private app-private

can't I just enter the above cmds and then exit out switch my sd card then re-connect to adb and,

Push apps back to phone from the computer

Code:

adb push app /system/sd/app

adb push app-private /system/sd/app-private
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
If those are the commands, then that should work. Only think is I personally don't know where the apps, well the data is held when you pull, so if you swap, I don't know what will happen, But that process would work. I strongly recommend copying it to your computer before you do, just in case.

(MODS: Apologies in advance if this is in the wrong section)

Ok hate to start a new thread but I'm desperate. :(

I was on official Rogers 2.2 (w/ SuperOneClick + RyanOCLF).

I used AIO 2.6 and followed all steps - only thing omitted was not removing battery during the process - which I didn't see mentioned anywhere.

My very first attempt resulted in below in ODIN. However phone got to Rogers logo (white screen with 5 dots) and then going black. Nothing on screen, not responding to buttons but the 4 buttons near bottom lighting up when touching them.

I saw nothing out of ordinary during whole process.

After getting desperate I decided to follow this article to get it into download mode manually using the 3-buttons.

My steps were as follows:

1) Remove battery+SIM

2) Plug in USB

3) Hold down Power+Volume (3-buttons)

4) Inserted battery

5) ODIN3 shows COM active and phone enters Download mode (digger screen with do not disconnect target message)

6) In ODIN3, I picked PIT and PDA files in ODIN and clicked Start (screenshot above)

7) Went through process and finished with "PASS" in ODIN where the phone was at the ROGERS (with 5 dots) screen. Screenshot above.

8) A couple min at the rogers screen and then then phone went to black. Nothing on screen, power/volume buttons dont do anything and the 4-buttons near bottom light up when touched.

9) Its been some 50min+ so far and since step #7 above.

At this point it's good I can still get into download mode and recovery console.

However I am not sure what to do at this point.

Help :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JSS28:
gautaml, the same happened to me and this is how I got it working. Since I could get into Recovery I did a Wipe Data/Factory Reset and a Wipe Cache and then reinstall packages. It was awile ago but I think that was the order and it worked. Try it a few times. Before this I also used AIO to just put FireFly on and it worked fine.

[Edit] I also used this information to do this. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=979133
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
read the link in my sig about the ROGERS STOCK ROM!!

to fix it all you have to do is wipe cache and data if you get stuck at rogers boot.

and flashing instructions SHOULD NOT have to say "dont take out your battery while flashing"

ANYTHING to do with flashing warns that you device could get screwed up because

THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DELICATE PROCESS

!!!!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gautaml:
Thanks trusselo.

So at this point I don't have to do any more flashing. Just get into recovery and then clear the caches/data.

Will try shortly. Thanks. (fingers crossed)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gautaml:
w00t back in business.

For the curious,

Got into Recovery mode by:

1. USB+Battery in both in

2. Held down Power+Volumes down

3. Waited for i896 icon to come up

4. Let go of power.

5. It booted into recovery console.

6. Did Clear User Data followed by Clear Cache Data, followed by Reboot

7. After a few min it came back to Rogers logo and this time finally it booted into the actual application.

YAY!

Ok so lesson learned. For AIO to work I should not have battery or SIM installed? Just USB?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TRusselo:
DO NOT take out battery! sim is ok as well

battery needs to be in phone for it to work at all.
