I haven't had a single problem in any build... but I have to admit this is noticeably less "zippy" than the previous versions for me.

It's not so bad that I'm considering going back, but it's more like how my phone was before coming to continuum.

I'll give it some time before passing too much judgement though.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Is it doing it will different launchers?
[Captivate Android Development] kant5t1km3:
now after 3 hrs of recovering my lost phone i back to freezing of the boot animation. :mad: any help would be appreciated :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
That did the trick. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] n00b_wm:
I get a database error.
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
It says in the newest version it has tw4 launcher, helauncher, and arc launcher. Does it come with all three and you chose?
[Captivate Android Development] thehyecircus:
And is one of them the default Android one?
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
It works on RC3 but he changed back to stock TW4 so it may not work anymore. If not there's no other way short of moving them around in edit mode. You can also use list mode.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Yes. Arc launcher is more called Sony Ericsson Home
[Captivate Android Development] VFO:
I seemed to have lost my gingerbread keyboard. Could someone point out what the apk name is so I can pull it from the zip file and reinstall it? As for the Rom, this is the epitome of perfection! Great work icezar1!

Request If Possible

Can you add the HoneyComb Lock Screen? everything runs great so far. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] devitalized:
HE Launcher is closet to the stock. It also comes with different home/app drawer buttons themes like Sense and Blur.
[Captivate Android Development] kant5t1km3:
my phone freezes, black screen, i9000 screen, repeat. HELP ive been trying for 3 hrs and im really tired:)
[Captivate Android Development] reflex01:
YES! Please, and Thank You!
[Captivate Android Development] h0ckey10:
But all of it is prepackaged with the rom? Cause the change log for 5.1 says it has tw4, helaucher and arc
[Captivate Android Development] thehyecircus:
I'll just put on my stock Launcher and hope it works with 2.3!
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
You have come a long way since helping us install Darky's rom with the detailed i9000 installation instructions. Great work man! You are the real McCoy.

Well that was 20 minutes of absolute horror! At least the torrent is up and running good :)
[Captivate Android Development] Endoran:
Just flashed and everything went perfect! The initial boot only took 1 minute for me (I timed it with a stopwatch). I do have a question tho...I'm afraid to restore apps+data (of course NEVER system data!) because it's 2.3.3. Has anyone restored their apps+data and if so did it work OK? I do miss having AOSP messaging app, and some of serendipity's custom icons but I'll live! (No I don't want to use LauncherPro, I like AOSP launcher).

Oh, this is related to the orientation sensor known problem: the gallery is all wonky (it thinks you are tilting it to the extreme).

Other than that this thing is SMOOTH. Like wow. After the initial boot I restarted it and it rebooted SO freaking fast I was AMAZED. Like faster than any custom rom with lag fixes etc. By far. Anyway, thank you very much icezar1 and xcal (you guys rock), I'm looking forward to ROM and kernel updates!!
[Captivate Android Development] LNJ:
I restored all missing apps + data and so far so good.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
it dont boot faster than using glitterballs' v.5 steam kernel but yeah most of the custom kernels out there boot kinda slow.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Look in here
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Linpack is stable around 14, useless though, was the same result on froyo and the real life performance is not comparable..
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Just follow the guide in the OP and you will have gingerbread
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
QUADRANT AND LINPACK ARE NOT ABLE TO MEASURE GALAXY S PERFORMANCE! PERIOD!!!

You may use SmartBench 2011 or Antutu Benchmark.

However there is no benchmark software that can measure real life performance! And believe me, C5 has the same results as C4 but the speed is amazingly improved due to gingerbread upgrade.
[Captivate Android Development] b3asty:
Same here.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Hey, we're still in a Continuum thread here :p

You can post a personal opinion if you tried previous versions of Continuum, v4 for example.

Video Issues

OK, I think that I have finally pinned down the problem I was having with video down to the most recent release of the Talon kernel. This is the procedure I used to figure this out:

I first had this issue when I upgraded to v5.1. I followed the instructions to make sure that Stagefright was turned off and it didn't solve the problem completely. I now had the thumbnail previews and could hear sound when playing the video but the video was black. I edited the build.prop to turn off Stagefright player and still no video. This issue was only happening with a specific kind of codec for me: DIVX3. I had an MKV encoded in h.264 and it played just fine.

I then downgraded to RC3, and the movies played just fine. I then upgraded to the latest Talon kernel and BOOM, no video. Just sound. So it looks like a kernel issue now. Talon 0.1.4 doesn't have this problem just 0.1.5.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Text Messaging

Love the ROM, as usual, thanks for the great work!

Curious if anyone sees the same thing I am experiencing in 5.1: the text messaging client no longer alternates yellow/blue in a conversation thread. Both parties' chat bubbles are the same dull grey.
[Captivate Android Development] richsale:
Did you call it build.prop ?
[Captivate Android Development] mrcpu:
Ugh... Flashed this recent version, and having weirdness. Was running RC3/Talon 0.1.4 with no obvious trouble.

I flashed, wiped caches, dalvik, battery stats, voltage settings, etc.

o) After restoring my apps and user data with tibu, market says I have no apps in "My apps".

o) Voltage settings just goes to a black screen after it says "doing poorly written system checks".

o) I think I'm using the sony launcher, I don't know how to really tell, but it has the little garbage can that opens and closes when you delete icons, but the sort order doesn't stick in the appdrawer after I open it. I set it to alphabetical, reboot, and it's back to "custom".

o) It just seems laggy. Hitting the power button, takes an extra "beat" for the lockscreen to appear (both rotary and AOSP). I set animations to none, but everything seems just to be dragging.

I will probably flash back to RC3 just to verify, but I've really had no troubles with Continuum, starting wtih V4, and up till now...

I do appreciate all the hard work that has gone into it.
[Captivate Android Development] nybmx:

Enable geotag on camera?

I know that the camera has been modified to disable geotagging, but is there a way to replace it with the older camera that still has geotagging enabled for those of us who want it? I've done a search and haven't found a method for doing this.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] Srikar_NBK:
Wow a Linpack score of 16.5 and Quadrant score of 2350. This is insane. Hope all other apps and functionalities work out well too. Appreciate all the good work
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
Hmm, so besides the lag, I'm also experiencing pretty rapid battery drain, although I can't determine if this is just a calibration thing or not. The battery usage screen shows heavy usage from "Android System" which I don't recall seeing there in the previous version of Continuum, I wonder if this has anything to do with why there is so much lag as well.
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Im only gettin 11 in linpack
[Captivate Android Development] mrcpu:
Flashed Talon 0.1.4 and all lag/performance issues seem well now. Nice and smooth, quick opening apps, none of the weirdness. Voltage control works, launcher is fine. Haven't checked the alphabetizing thing, but in the scheme of things, it's a pretty small problem.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
That's odd that changing the kernel would fix the issues, because I was running 0.1.5 with RC3 and never had any issues with performance. Maybe it's the specific pairing of 0.1.5 and 5.1?
[Captivate Android Development] emooheo:
Great work!

one problem: smart keyboard does not work :(

Email in LauncherPro

Hi Cezar,

Great Rom! Just installed 5.1 and had one problem

I prefer to use LauncherPro, and once i started it, i couldn't find the stock Email app in the drawer anymore, any possible workaround at the mean time for this?

Thanks

Applications where where missing after reboot

Hey guys, i flash this rom, then i restore all my applications with TiBu... so everything was fine after rebooting , now the most of my applications are not installed. the icons are not in black and white and just says SD..when i try to open them it says : APPLICATION IS NOT INSTALLED ON YOU PHONE..

any suggestions?

thanks..

also i re-installed one application from the market.. after rebooting again, now the same problem.
[Captivate Android Development] GGXtreme:
I had this problem before, reinstalling my apps from the market fixed it for me though. Try wiping cache and performing a factory reset, then restore your apps with TiBu again. Make sure you aren't restoring system data with TiBu.
[Captivate Android Development] FroggyStyle:
Make sure the app is not hidden. From the home screen hit menu/preferences/general/hidden apps

Sent from my smudged touch screen using the XDA app
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
If you know what you are doing, you know how to remove the overclock and enjoy the functionality of the ROM.

You know guys.. as harpo1 said, I do this for fun, I don't do it for money and even with all these issues reported I am still not worried because the Rom was downloaded thousands of times and the "bad feedback" i get back is from max 10 users. That's a great number in my opinion.

Ill have an update today which removes any possible lag and playback issues.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Did you install the Rom from CWM2? (e.g. GR-11 without flashing Talon before?)
[Captivate Android Development] skippyg:
Unintsalled some old apps and my.lag is gone. :)

I.never used the month widget as you said it force closes.

But seriously this is an amazing Rom. Everything is fast smooth i Lovvvvve the non existent lag for opening apps especially the gallery. It drove me nuts with 2.2.1 Roms.
[Captivate Android Development] ou812bkewl:
You're the man Icezar1!!!
[Captivate Android Development] switters1:
installation clarification?

If I'm on Perception II (gingerbread release), can I flash 5.1 from CWM recovery 3?
[Captivate Android Development] deltatyger:
LOL! Can't believe the app i made it hidden back in Eclair time had came back and haunt me! Thanks again Froggy!
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Im not putting you at any risk buddy, the CPU was build for 1.2GHz , this was confirmed by supercurio and hardcore, great kernel devs and I believe them.

Again, if you don't wanna "take the risk" go with stock Samsung or the alternatives. I've heard the complaints and i'm gonna fix what's not wanted but you have !no right! to judge my decision and my ways.

I hope that's clear for you and anyone else thinking on throwing sh** at any devs work!

Instead of losing time on the forums you could express your disappointment directly to Samsung and ATT and then compare the response time from them (companies that you paid and still pay a bunch of money) with the response time from here (free community!).
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Wait for 5.2, i don't want you crying around as well :p

Joking, yes, as long as you flash from CWM3 all should be fine. If you get a boot loop just go to recovery and flash the Rom one more time.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Some people don't know how good they have it. This guy would probably ***** if he won the Lottery because he had to pay taxes on it. Cezar don't worry my friend 99% of us appreciate everything you and the rest of the devs do for us. Without you guys our cappies would have been in the trash long ago.
[Captivate Android Development] yahooserious:
Icezar Thank you for your continued hard work and patience in updating and ironing out any issues that are reported. Without your resolve to give give give to this community many users, myself included, would still be licking froyo from the loins of AT&T.

I have noticed a few wrinkles that I feel should be brought to your attention in case you were looking for more feedback.

I am also getting very wonky FC and alot of lag after this update. I am unsure what is the culprit but I can confirm the symptoms.

Also as noted in a previous comment It is noticed that you have left out the GB keyboard. I did find a link posted from SHOMAN that i have utilized. Thank you SHOMAN for easing the burden that ICEZAR may be feeling.

The only other thing that I think is worth noting is the loss of .flac playback. I am not sure if it is my media player that is the culprit but I did want to mention it.

I wish that I could help lighten the burden of having to iron out the wrinkles in your ROMS but alas I am just a peon with a ROM flashing addiction. I am making an effort to learn as I go so with any luck I will do my best to help new users where I can.

Step back and take a deep breath ICEZAR. The critisisms seem to dominate the feedback because you have grown accustom to the simple thatnk you's that users all seem to offer you. Remember that we ARE truely grateful for your hard efforts and around the clock dedication to CONTINUUM development even if most of us say the same thing. Remember that each and every individual in this MASSIVE user block flashing CONTINUUM is an individual person sharing their gratitude toward your efforts.. even if all the words seem to read the same.

Cheers ICEZAR!

I hate that I always have issues restoring apps & data from tibu after wipe roms. it freezes up. Most of the time on angry birds but if I deselect them it still just freezes on some other app . Could it be cuz of the amazon app store somehow? I noticed it freezes on apps coming from amazon app store purchases.

Volume Up button problem - Forced Upload by Key Pressing

I have installed Continuum 5.1 without any problems. (I used 4.2 earlier, therefore I installed the new boot loader etc), however

I have a very annoying problem since. Once I push down the Volume Up button, the phone goes to "Forced Upload by Key Pressing" mode.

Need to press and hold down the Volume Up and Power button together to be able to restart the phone.

Same thing happening in Recovery mode. System will go to "Forced Upload by Key Pressing" mode anytime when the Volume Up button pressed.

Could you please somebody give me a hint to solve it.

thank you
[Captivate Android Development] dracuanh:
of course :D

I didn't make it myself. You can also have your very customized one via http://www.flamingtext.com/

Boot loop issue might be caused by Talon 1.1.5 kernel?

Hi,

I've been testing different scenarios with my boot loop issue. In addition to that I have another problem; if I open up a browser window (I use Firefox but stock browser should cause the same problem), open up a web page, scroll with my finger for a while, the phone reboots.

I didn't have this problem with RC3 (which had Talon 1.1.2 or 1.1.3?), or GR11 (xcaliburhand's kernel) but I had the same issue (including boot loop) with Perception II which has Talon 1.1.4. Now with Talon 1.1.5 they are still there.

Strangely a small subset of users seem affected by the issues, otherwise this thread would be flooded with complaints :) The same goes for Perception II, I haven't seen anybody other than me complaining about especially the browser reboot issue.

I don't know how often everybody uses their browser but I'd appreciate it if you could give it a try especially with Firefox. But the chances are, if you don't have the boot loop issue, you probably don't have the browser issue as somehow they seem to be related...
[Captivate Android Development] VFO:
The .zip files generated from UOT kitchen are not compatible with CWM3. The only way I found around this was a suggestion from shoman94. what you do is take the Framework-res file and/or the systemUI file that the kitchen generates and insert it into the Continuum.v.5.1 theme revert zip file that he provides in the Continuum 5.1 Theme thread. The installation script in that zip file is for CWM3 and it will install the battery mod you want. At least it did for me. Hope this helps.

ETA; Use a program like 7zip to transfer the files from zip to zip.
[Captivate Android Development] parnz:
The 2nd said "flash over previous releases" Is that means I have to flash the RC3 then 5.1?

OR just use METHOD 1 to flash the initial rom then flash 5.1?

Thanks

non-wipe

release *

* flash over v5.1. If you come from an earlier release, it is recommended that you perform a factory reset *

* no need to disable lagfix *

* preferably flash with power cable unplugged *

* if you're running a gingerbread ROM, you do not need to update bootloaders! (because you have them already...)*

* if you're caught in a boot loop, reboot in recovery and just install the rom again *

Fixed media playback issues

No UV and no OC

Removed several TouchWiz 4 widgets causing insane lag

Added several FlipFont packages (thanks to pauldiddy)

Thinking of removing TouchWiz 4 in next release... If is too laggy for you, use the alternative launchers.
