It does play with the bootloader portion of the phone, so odin would be the safer way to do it.

Sorry for the long time out guys. Been busy with work and still am but I hope I can release 5.6 this weekend. Added few more lockscreens, fixed some swapped strings and themed it.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Cool. Is it still gonna be based off the same build? Will we be able to have a non-wipe flash? Any other tidbits changed like the new modems or such? Look forward to getting my flash fix again for my Continuum Cappy. Thanks for all your hard work.

Adw ex problem

Hi,

I'm running C v5.5 with talon 0.2.1. and JVK modem Works amazing except a little problem.

I'm using Adw ex and almost every time I open an application or answer the phone, my Adw seems to make a reset, the icons disappears to reappear few sec after. It's like the service has been killed but I don't have any task killer or other background program to kill app.

is there a way to force Adw to "stay on" no matter what?

Thanks for your help
[Captivate Android Development] neubauej:
Good point, I forgot about that..
[Captivate Android Development] msapi:
do mind sharing with me the steps to copy the services.jar or point me to the link?

i tried using Astro file manager, but the directory is read only.

adw

I had that happening too. I switched to Launcher Pro and never have had it happen. You might try clearing out the data for ADW in tibu.
[Captivate Android Development] schtuka:
Own LP Pro, but because the screen indicator is at the bottom not using it. I can't stand the widgets being too close to notification bar. Just drives me nuts, especially fancy widget HTC clock. I know it is weird, but composition, color balance of the screen is important to me. So I use ADW.

I bought Launcher pro in the past but switched to Adw because of the many improvement.

I followed your advise and re-try launcher pro but it FC every time I use it

Is anybody else having an issue of their wallpaper being scaled up a bit when applying it? I made a custom one that was 480 x 800 and when I went to go apply it, more than half the wallpaper was missing, but when I take a screen cap and look at the dimensions it shows the picture at 400 x 800.

Base on JVO or JV9?
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
800x480 is the size of the screen... but depending on your launcher/settings a wallpaper is actually larger than that, spanning across all homescreens. You likely have up to 7 homescreens and you'll notice the wallpaper pan as you change screens.

The actual measurement of the wallpaper is 960x800 if I recall. If your launcher has an option to stop the wallpaper from stretching across all homescreens, then 800x480 should look good.

Edit: Also, I'm almost positive it's NOT an option on stock software, touchwiz, etc... But I know some custom launcher have this setting. Ie: Launcherpro: settings, appearance, "disable wallpaper scrolling"

Edit#2, I still haven't tested a 800x480 picture with scrolling disabled, but the more I think about it, it will still have to be 960x800... I think the image just stays centered. So if you use 480x800 it will stretch, cut off the sides, and stay centered. What I would do is make a new, blank 960x800 image, paste your 480x800 image in the center, and add black bars on the sides. This is, of course if you don't want scrolling and want to see the whole image. The alternative is to make the proper background 960x800 and let it scroll.

Sorry for derailing the thread.
[Captivate Android Development] jonnyg1097:
Thanks for the reply, I am using ADW Launcher EX I am aware that for a scrolling wallpaper it should be 960 x 800. I had this issue as well with the 960 x 800 wallpapers and the scrolling backgrounds. It still cuts off a bit at the bottom of the screen. All the wallpaper choices are unchecked so nothing should be effecting it. I tried it your way with adding the background I want in an image and then trying to cropping it to what I want in it.

I have attached my images. First one is the intended background the second one is how it looks on my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Are you trying to use a photo from the gallery as a paper? Of you are, crying will only make it worse. I had the same problem, but never found an answer. I think the image had to placed in a different folder for it to scale properly (i think, not sure).
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Cropping, not crying. Swypef again
[Captivate Android Development] jonnyg1097:
Lol I thought crying worked well in that situation also but a little on the harsh side. Yea I am, I don't remember having this problem though on previous versions of Continuum.
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Interesting... I don't have a wallpaper with words like jonnyg (as they make excellent measuring points), but I was just looking at the built in wallpapers that came with continuum.

i looked at them very closely and sure enough, they all get cropped a little bit once they are selected. A good example is the one that shows the curvature of the earth, with all the stars/constellations. It is definitely cut off at the top and bottom.

Must be the regular behavior, and the only way around it may just be some trial and error to put the "important" parts of the pic in the right place.

Edit: That being said, Jonny, yours seems to be getting cropped way too much... possibly due to not being 960x800? Instead of simply stretching horizontally, it keeps the aspect ratio and stretches it, losing much of the bottom? If you keep the 960x800 measurements, it appears it's still going to get cropped, but maybe not nearly as badly.

When using an actual 960x800 image, is it still as badly cropped as the example you posted?
[Captivate Android Development] jonnyg1097:
I guess you would be right although customizing wallpapers like that now are just gonna make things all that more difficult to make work.
[Captivate Android Development] yahooserious:
noticed something that ICEZAR1 may want to look into or maybe if this is a known bug someone can confirm it to me. I have plugged phone into the computer USB to charge and watched the ram status raise from 290 up to 303 within 3 minutes and then trickle up and down from there, not certain what that means but I thought it might be something.

Just a note, due to flashing addiction, I had to flash the new Seredipity 7. I'm back on Continuum all in about 2 hours, too many problems, slower for one and keyboards were a problem. I did pull the camera app from it though as it has the ability to turn on and off the Geo Tagging, I just incorporate the camera into the Paul Diddy Theme 1.4 along with the dialer from Ginger Black. This rom is still the best, even though it hasn't been updated in about 10 days, maybe it doesn't need it other than a few tweaks like the GPS fix I posted earlier.

Note: Just found that Paul Diddy has 1.5 out.

[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
The camera on C5 will give you geotagging option, and the choice of which sd card to use.
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
OK, my bad, I must have overwritten it on one of my theme flashes and didn't realize it had overwritten the installed one. Make sure you either remove the camera from the Diddy Theme or replace it with the one from Continuum before you flash. 1.5 is out.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Are you using ported themes from shomans thread, our straight from the PD thread?
[Captivate Android Development] -Thrive-:
Ditto. Lots of buggy things in Serendipity 7. Lost my ability to connect to Windows PC in Media Player mode, messed up my Doubletwist music sync, really made a mess of album art. Thank god for Nandroid backup. I won't be deserting the Continuum ship any time soon.
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
Straight from the PD thread, link is in earlier post. Remember to always flash back to continuum default theme before flashing a new theme, less problems that way. The theme is compatible with JVH, JVO, and JV9. Also note, After a flash of diddy, it takes a while to boot, but it will and its worth it in my opinion.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Flashing unported themes can break things in the rom (your camera? maybe). Thats why shoman and vivefied out so much work into porting them.

I also flashed S7 but its great, not having any of the problems you guys are. Waiting for the next cezar release though :)
[Captivate Android Development] Soccer_Dad:
As many of the others of you, I also wanted to check out the new thing, and so I flashed Serendipity 7. S5 and S6 were my "go-to" ROMS for Froyo. But I had many, many issues that cropped up within the first few hours - boot loop to start, two sleep deaths, random reboot coming out of flight mode, phone wouldn't go into deep sleep. So I'm back to Continuum again.

I don't want to run down S7, because S5-S6 were so great for me. It may be something in the Continuum-Talon setup that caught us. I don't do master resets, and generally don't do factory resets, so that could have been an issue. I suspect that a more careful flashing would have given somewhat better results, but in the end I liked the styling here a bit more, so I'm staying for the time being.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Another kernel option

Some have been discussing using Xcal's kernel as an option to Talon.

Right now I'm testing a third option, ChanceM's kernel V2.0, which was developed for Serendipity7. Since S7 is a JV0 based rom just like Continuum v5.5, I figured it would be a safe kernel to try.

I'm pretty sure this kernel is based on Xcal's. Like Xcal's, it does not support OC or UV, so delete your Voltage Control files before flashing this kernel. Also, this kernel is a CWM2.5 kernel.

To install, just copy the zip file to you SD, and use the CWM app (or Recovery) and flash the zip file.

Its way too early in my trial to rave about this kernel, but, after much abuse, I have yet to experience the WiFi reboot problem or the BT problem.

The file is located here: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=614990&d=1307117547

Oh, one other comment. This kernel has a splash screen just like Talon does. Unfortunately, this one shows 'SERENDIPITY VII' on boot. Don't get concerned, it really didn't change your rom from Continuum to Serendipity! Its just a splash screen, and you can change it to what you want if it bugs you too much :)

Dark Google Search Widget in 5.5?

Hey all,

I am loving 5.5, haven't had an issue yet, except for the known bluetooth hanging issue, which switching to the jv6 modem actually fixed it for me, so far anyways. Using Talon's latest kernel, this rom is zooming.

Quick question, I seem to recall when I had 5.4.1 installed, that the google search widget was the dark variation, and now with 5.5, it's back to the plain white search widget. I am wanting to go back to the black widget, and was wondering if it's as easy as uninstalling it on my phone, extracting the zip from 5.4.1 and taking the apk from the system/apps folder of the zip and moving it to the system/apps folder on my phone.

If anyone knows if this is possible or if there is a different method, I would appreciate it. I've searched and stayed up to date(as best I can with so many posts) and haven't seen anyone mention this yet.

Thanks...

hmm that's the odd part i guess.

I have astro as part of tibu restore. It was missing. Dl from market but fails to install. Even the apk says it installs but never shows up. Weird.

[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
1. First thing you might want to check is the cable. Did you get a new cable. I got a OEM cable off of Ebay for 2.75 had to trim the bottom of the plastic on the connector to get it to go all the way in and seat properly. It works great so far.

2. Cable could be bad. Try another cable.

Try going to settings/Applications and Manage Applications and launching it from there. Or do you have the app hidden in the settings of your Launcher?

Tried that also. Also tried to install a diff app and no go. Just had a weird freeze dragged screen and shutdown. Got to thinking of UV too aggressive. Fixed and hinging. Back to normal. So weird.

[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Not sure if this should be in the ROM or Kernel thread.

I started experiencing what people refer to as "sleep death". When I wake up in the morning, my phones screen is black, and will not turn on. I know I have lots of battery. Short and long presses of the power button do nothing.

Only pulling the battery brings it back. It this the same thing as sleep death?

Do we have a solid theory on if it's possibly rom or kernel related? It only started happening on 5.5. I was on Talon 1.7 at first when it happened, and have been on Talon 2.1 since it came out and it happened again.

It's only happened 3 times since the release of 5.5. Most of the time my phones connected to the charger when I sleep. I think all 3 times it's happened I wasn't charging. This could possibly have stopped it from happening?

I've heard people mentioning UV can cause it, but I"m not doing that. I've always been set to 1200oc. Could this possibly have an effect? I've turned it off temporarily to see if that may be contributing. But it has happened so rarely, it's going to be hard to predict/troubleshoot.
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Thats not sleep death. Thats a lock up. Are you using any kind of screen off profiles? Aru you SURE its not uv'ed?

[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Definitely not uv'd. I use noled, if that could cause a problem. But that being said, I have it set to disable from 11pm to 8am.

If I have any special type of profile, it would have been set as default from the ROM or Kernel. I haven't made any such changes.

It's a rare issue, but it's hard not being able to count on your phone being there in the morning. Otherwise I've never had a single issue, not even the charging issue.
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
I dont see how that can cause it but then again some apps dont behave well with gb. I would uninstall and see if that does it. I had this issue on froyo and setcpu was the culprit. You dont use THAT do you?

I had this problem but with 5.4.1, after 5.5 I haven't noticed it, but along with the updating I also got rid of old app versions to make the phone as fresh as possible... Perhaps any battery saving apps?

What I also did instead of pulling the battery is to reboot into recovery and rebooting it from there, seems less invasive and I don't know, but it probably also helped.
