Edit: I copied the music files in to the internalSD/media and all the music appear.

Thank you!!

[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
It makes me wonder why it's not reading the music off your external sd if your external sd is mounted.
[Captivate Android Development] oscarivera17:
I just installed a lot of music player and the last one (today) was music folder player, and when it ask me for add a folder only appear 3 " Gameloft, media and Sound" so I decided to add all the music in the folder media and every thing is OK.

Thank you
[Captivate Android Development] danix180:
I had the same issue. On 5.4.1 with xcal's kernel.

To fix you need to do a Factory reset from cwm and than reinstall all the apps. No reflashing required.

It worked for me.

FYI Continuum on xcal's kernel is smooth like butter.

Cezar you should make this the default kernel in the future releases.
[Captivate Android Development] neubauej:
@ BigMc71

The dev has asked repeatedly not to put links to test kernels here. Please take that link down.
[Captivate Android Development] hashish16:
I tried searching but I can't find an answer, is there a way to make the dock 5 icons.

I know on the i9000 forum they have a copy of TW4 with the 5 icon dock, but I'm not sure if its compatible, and I don't want a landscape homescreen (its so annoying). I just want to add a 5 dock homescreen.
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
For real. There is a reason test Kernels are not posted up for the general public to use, BECAUSE THEY ARE BEING TESTED FOR BUGS,. BigMc71 please remove the link. Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] jayjr1105:
I have been doing pretty well with the xcal kernel as of late... lag is gone and battery life is above average. I'm pretty satisfied with 5.4.1 and that kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] BigMc71:
I deleted. I've never seen the request but I guess I haven't read the thousands of posts. Just trying to help.
[Captivate Android Development] joedoe:
1. Do I need to remove the lagfix and go to RFS file system before flashing to stock JF6?

2. How is GPS on this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
I did a google search, could not find anything. I am going to freeze it for now.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
That app comes by default with the rfs images from samsung... not sure what it does
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
I tried the secret code for LBSTestMode and it launched that first before going into GPS settings. LBSTestMode is not installed.
[Captivate Android Development] elfie:
I have frozen it using TiBu, will report if I experience any issues.

Edit: The Angry GPS is the alternative to LBSTestMode , but it requires several other apps to work fully, like chartcross GPS test, MyTrack application etc.

Nice to see beta2 up cezar... but it's the 22, not the 23!
[Captivate Android Development] Pinepig:
I have the AngryGPS on mine too and am not running this ROM, ( I'm on the stock I9000 GB )

Froze it too, wonder what it is.
[Captivate Android Development] jlt220:
Do the other gingerbread kernals work on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Its the 23rd where he is....

The guy is a machine.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
It the replacement app of LBSTestMode and is needed to run programs like My Tracks and GPS Status as singalkalpesh tested
[Captivate Android Development] deltatyger:
Weird, just flashed beta 2 and the "about phone" FC still present, not a big deal tho. Thanks again cezar for the first to publish a gingerbread rom!!
[Captivate Android Development] stangri:
Cezar -- did you implement any SIP fixes (general permissions and allowing sip on 3g) in beta2? If I made these fixes manually after I flashed beta1, will they be gone after I flash beta2?

Also I remember reading about Settings-About Phone FCing for people who flashed shoman's suggested modem on top of beta1 -- is it still an issue with beta2?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] ottawadad34:
Me too. What i did though was reflash the update and did a factory reset from recovery and it worked. I lost everything but no big deal
[Captivate Android Development] ottawadad34:
Also i flashed the PaulDiddy_Remix_GB_v1 from the i9000 forums and it worked perfectly
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Wow. Should've realized. He lives somewhere in Europe, right?
[Captivate Android Development] LNJ:
Flashed beta 2 and didn't clear anything in recovery. Everything is fine.
[Captivate Android Development] jlt220:
does anyone else have auto rotate troubles with this rom? the kernal seems like it should reorient it... but i don't think it is for me

Not fixed in the kernel level yet.

Flashed Excal over Talon........ Mmmmmmm much better. Looking forward to Excal w/ CW3.
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
While I respect existz's wishes, the fact remains that he posted a link to an earlier test kernel that he wanted everyone on Continuum to run because the previous version had issues, and now it is known that that version (test 11) also had a bug related to the default 1000 mHz step, which I'd say is fairly significant. I'm very surprised he hasn't posted a link to test 13 here for everyone to run, since the bug has apparently been fixed and I haven't experienced any lag or bugs while running it.

Make sure there is nothing called '.nomedia' in the root of the external SD.
[Captivate Android Development] oscarivera17:
You are right, there was that file .nomedia in there, I deleted and every thing OK.
[Captivate Android Development] goob1284:
How did you manage to do that since excal's is for jvb?
[Captivate Android Development] neubauej:
Xcal does have a jvh version also.

May i suggest if you are thinking of switching, disable all tweaks, clear dalvik, and cache?
[Captivate Android Development] goob1284:
YA! wheres the link?

nevermind i found it
[Captivate Android Development] wickedninjalo:
Lol had the same problem with my music not showing up. (probably about 50 pages back (please search forums b4 posting)) Damn .nomedia file.

Sent from my Continuum Gingerbread Captivate! (this thing should've came with a cape)
[Captivate Android Development] BigMc71:
I'm running test 13. When I check About Phone, the Kernel version is listed as: 2.6.35.7-I9000XWJVB-CL118186 root@linux #0.1.7-talon-dev

Does that mean I've got the wrong kernel loaded or is this just listed wrong?
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
Nope means nothing. If you flashed via Odin then test 13 is in there.
[Captivate Android Development] psycho2097:
Well, guys, great job on the rom, as usual, from the continuum team. Using continuum since v3. I get excellent battery life, around 30 hours, with 2 hours of screen time, with wifi. But a real big problem for me is whenever i press the volume up key, i get "upload mode by key press" screen, like the kernel panic screen. This happens even if i press vol up key in recovery mode, so i m guessing it is more f a kernel problem, idk..? I am very much new to the gb scene, having been using froyo all my life!:-P also, i don't know why, but the power control seems to be working fine. One more thing, i know this is jvh base, but the kernel my phone is showing is

"6.35.7-i9000jvb-cl118186

Root@linux #0.1.7-talon-dev

Sat may 7 14:53:34 edt 2011"

Any help would be appreciated, i didnt read the whole thread, just the last 15 pages, but couldnt find any references...sorry if this is too nooby a question.but pls help!!!!

UPDATE: i flashed xcals kernel through Odin, still problem persisted. next i flashed to GB stock as outlined by mikeymike, and flashed GR-12. Problem gone. Now i am scared that i will lose the awesome battery life! :(
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I just flashed the ROM from ODIN . Did not do anything else beforehand.

I thought I would have issues because I forgot to delete the Voltage settings and clear Davlik. IT booted fine. I then deleted the system/etc/int.d/ voltage scheduler after the flash rebooted into recovery and cleared Davlik and cache,

Excals kernels worked great on all my ROMS. Nothing fancy with OC/UV, they just work. Sometimes simple is best especially in early beta stages.
[Captivate Android Development] andrewdroid:
Just wanted to say I'm having loads of success with Xcalibur's kernel (voodoo enabled) and this rom. With this setup, I'm getting great battery life, no lag, and no issues. I'm also using the includes modem which seems alright in nyc.

Bluetooth still not enabling with 5.4.1/Talon?

I heard someone say they went to xcal and bluetooth works, but I get no lag, great battery and no issues (except BT not turning on)

I dont see this in the known issue, and searching only comes up with reflah or try xcal's. I have reflashed several times, went to stock, etc... but no BT.

Thanks!

G

5.4.1 w/ Talon 1.7
[Captivate Android Development] xtremesv:
I tried GR (JVB) as my first Ginger ROM cause I love Mikey's work but due to different bugs I found I returned to Serendipity. I saw Continuum was rebased on JVH so I decided to give it a shot. At the beginning I experienced a problem with data connection, JP9 modem didn't want to connect to HSDPA and on GSM it only connected to 1900 band which isn't the best in the area where I live, then I flashed KC1 modem but the problem remained so I reflashed Continuum together with KC1 and it finally recognized 850 band and HSDPA. Dismissing that little issue, everything has been very good so far and I'm enjoying Continuum, it still has some tiny bugs (bluetooth hangs sometimes, wifi/data switching, etc) but I can live with those til next release. Good work Cezar!
[Captivate Android Development] 1randomtask:
Yeah, I nuked my SD card (its been probably 4 months and countless roms), Nuked everything (wipe-date/factory reset, dalvik, batt stats, voltage, etc) in Clockwork, flashed up xcal's kernel, re-installed everything from scratch and its all sitting nicely now.

Any reason why Voodoo Control (and Plus) doesn't appear in the Market?
[Captivate Android Development] nybmx:
As said earlier it's probably because the market footprint of this phone is set as a Galaxy SII and supercurio restricted it for the galaxy s line. I don't know if this is the case or not but it was brought up a few pages ago.
[Captivate Android Development] droid_does:

would he be mad if I posted an apk though? I have a voodoo control app that I had from before when I was on froyo on darky 9.5 :p
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
PM him and ask for permission. Whats the worst he could say? Imo, since your not modding the app any, he will prob be ok with it.
[Captivate Android Development] droid_does:
i'll PM him and if its an ok i'll post it here :)
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
If you back out and click the paper clip for this thread you'll see it's here already (Voodoo_Sound.apk) :)

I just bought the app, and found a download for it.
[Captivate Android Development] jeremytanner:
I've noticed mine won't turn the bluetooth on sometimes, but a quick reboot always fixes it. I've never had trouble turning the bluetooth on directly after a reboot. I ran today with both GPS and bluetooth left on, and found my battery life didn't change enough for me to notice a difference, so I think I'll just leave the bluetooth on.
[Captivate Android Development] pawadca:
Just wanted to share that this ROM has been amazing! Install went smooth thanks to the amazing instructions. Read a little more and did some tweaks, now no lag or FC issues. Read a little more made some setting tweaks and voltage tweaks and now I get 58% battery after a 15 hour day of normal usage. GPS and BT all work great.

Thanks to everyone for their hard work and contributions. I'm free of the boredom of stock ROMs!
[Captivate Android Development] gv2112:
BT works after I installed xcal... then

Then I put Talon back on and BT works now... very strange....

EDIT: Well, nm... it doesnt work again... uggg....
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Which Talon version?
[Captivate Android Development] gio22:
For those of you who are saying this ROM eats battery life, I have just experienced the best battery life yet. I unplugged at 100% on Friday morning and it is now Sunday morning. I'm still at 69%. Did I use my phone for heavy gaming, etc? No, I have talked on it, surfed XDA frequently, did email and some texts and changed my themes a few times (THANKS Showman and Vivified!!). I have never been able to keep my phone off the charger at the end of the day before doing similar things in the past.

As to lag, I'm still not experiencing any. I still think this will turn out to be an app/launcher issue, not ROM or kernel. I've never switched from Talon and don't plan on it in the future as I've never had issues like others. I have frozen TW in Tibu as I've heard that is probably a problem app and use Go Launcher EX. Maybe my reason for no issues is because I never use TW. I didn't like it with the original software on my phone and I don't like it now. Just a thought...

With bluetooth, I use my BT headset often and have yet had any issues with it. I have had the issue in the past with a different ROM where BT would randomly not work, but haven't yet with C5.

Anyways, this ROM has been very stable, fast and reliable for me. Will I try other ROMs? Am I a flash-addict? Yes and yes. I haven't had my flash-fix for a little while and I'm starting to feel edgy. However, based on my experience so far, I have a feeling I know I'll be back. ;)

Great job Cezar, Existz, Shoman and Vivified!!
[Captivate Android Development] cachookaman:
i really wish my phone still didnt have the upside down problem. aside from that this rom was great. i know the problem isnt with this rom since ive tried other gingerbread roms and it still happens. i guess my phone just doesnt wanna play nice.
[Captivate Android Development] droid_does:
maybe its the sensors?

have you tried going back to stock eclair JF6 bootloaders ROM and all then reflashing continuum?
[Captivate Android Development] gio22:
Do a search on this as I've read about it before with a fix. It seems like it was in this thread. Sorry I don't remember where or have the link, but I know it's there somewhere. Good luck!!
[Captivate Android Development] nikooe:
First of all I want to thank the Dev for a great ROM.

I was wonderinf if it is possible to incorporate the MIUI lockscreen into JVH?

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
I believe that I can rule out the Bootloader.

I spent the last week playing with old Cezar ROMs from v2.3 all the way up to v4 and all of them with the GB Bootloaders. I did NOT have one issue with battery charger being plugged in and the battery start dyeing after it reached a full charge. 98% is the lowest it dropped after unplugging, which is very normal.

It could even be it the hardware. Maybe our Captivates don't have the hardware to turn the charger back on once the battery drops below a certain threshold? (I don't know, I'm just throwing it out there).
[Captivate Android Development] boog:
Putting the phone into flight mode and back out seems to cause the wifi error for me.

After flight mode, just wait a bit then toggle wifi again and it seems to come up fine.

If you go into settings for wifi, you can watch it error, try to turn back on, then turn off again. After that it seems to turn on fine.

I'm running xcals's kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] savvacon:
Hi all, I'm running the gr12 rom and want to try out continuum. Can I just flash th rom after booting in recovery or do I have to follow all the other steps?
[Captivate Android Development] droid_does:
I would backup apps that you need with TiBu (don't backup system data)

flash a CMW3 kernal (talon dev)

do a factory reset/wipe from inside recovery

then flash continuum
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I would recommend the method that takes you back to stock with Cezars safe method. It doesnt use bootloaders, buy will give you a blank slate to work with. Because 5.4.1 is a nowipe, I would flash 5.4, then 5.4.1.
[Captivate Android Development] mcx6:
oops already answered
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
There's no reason to flash 5.4 first. 5.4.1 is a no wipe, but if you do a factory reset (or back to stock as you suggest) you do the wiping. 5.4.1 is not an update, it's still the full ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] artvandalay22222:
So if I'm on froyo version of continuum (v4) then I should Odin back to stock then flash 5.4.1? I don't need to flash the beta w/ bootloaders?
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
Sorry, hate to bring up a GPS-related thread (ducks), but has anyone figured out how to adjust SUPL values in JVB/JVK-based ROMs? I've tried combing through both the Captivate and i9000 forums, and I know that LBSTEST was replaced by AngryGPS in Gingerbread, but the menus in AngryGPS don't seem to indicate you can change the values for SUPL.

Anyone manage to crack this? Am I missing something pretty basic here?
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I know, its just a thing I do. I've always did that with no wipes.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
You will still need to flash gb bootloaders. Use the method from op that includes flashing bootloaders.
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
If you're on Froyo you need to flash the bootloaders, yes. Follow method 1, but you can skip the optional back to stock step if you like, I did with no ill effects. For the most detailed instructions, I'd say follow the instructions for GR-12 but just do a factory reset and flash the Continuum ROM at the end instead of GR-12.
[Captivate Android Development] savvacon:
Thanks guys I'll try flashing this today. I'm trying to find the rom that will give me the best battery life... gr12 is good but I think I'll experiment some more
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
+1 - My thoughts exactly. I was having a few problems that seemed kernel related and switched to XCal's 1.2 kernel and things have been fine since. I've donated to eXistZ and like his work but while GB is still new (on the Captivate) I prefer to keep at least the kernel as simple as possible.

On another note, does anyone know of a Swype version that allows voice input and would work with GB and this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Someone said the beta from the Swype website would (i think). Doesn't hurt to check it out. It has been talked about a lot in this thread.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
Just an FYI that I have been running Continuum 5.x for a couple of weeks now and originally one of Mikey's GR releases. I have NEVER experienced the battery discharge issue. I plug my phone in (leaving it on) every night and when I unplug is has always been in the 97-100% range. I have a 1007 build. I use a wall charger (not USB) in case that makes a difference. I have occasionally left it charging via USB on my computer and didn't see it with that either - that's not the common charge method though.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
Thanks. I have searched previously (with no success) but have to admit I didn't when I threw this last comment in... I also have fallen behind on keeping up with the threads. I've been annoyed in the past when people post without searching something that has been discussed ad-nauseum - guilty as charged I guess... :o
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Sign up for Beta Swype here. It will be a different version of Swype, limited language options compared to current version on Continuum, but at least you will always have it and the voice recognition works, no probs.
[Captivate Android Development] rajendra82:
Secret code *#3214789650# gets you to angry gps. In the settings section you can change SUPL settings.
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
I can get into AngryGPS just fine, but for some reason can't find the settings area. In the main menu nothing looks like a section for settings, and when I hit the soft key nothing appears.

The only headers I see in the main menu are:

My Location

Screen Unlock Settings

SIM card lock

Mobile tracker

Passwords

Device Administration

Credential Storage

Any other thoughts?

EDIT - also tried adding a shortcut in Launcherpro to the homescreen (there is one called AngryGPS Supl Settings - as well as some others), but when I try and launch them it says 'Cannot Launch Requested Activity'

Am going to try clearing cache, clearing Dalivk Cache, and fix permissions in recovery to see if that helps anything at all...

EDIT2 - weird, after doing those changes in CWM3, when I use the code to get into AngryGPS, it's a completely different menu with Settings and other things listed now. Maybe my permissions were all jacked up!!
[Captivate Android Development] pawadca:
Get a copy of GPS status and under tools, calibrate pitch and roll.
[Captivate Android Development] stuff:
Anyone been having a problem where the phone wont wake from sleep? It's happened twice to me. Both times I was forced to remove the battery and power on. And doing so, I noticed the battery was severely drained. (maybe 20% in 10 minutes).

Running the default kernel with the newest rom.

Only thing I know I have done is messed with some of the tweaks for the kernel via the tweak application.

What is the best combination for those tweaks btw?

Decreased battery life while using themes

Hey is it me or is anyone else experiencing decreased battery life using one of the themes for this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
it happened to me with honeycomb theme
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I dint think theme can cause that. Have you installed any new apps? I would think its an app causing it. For me, I had to remove maps. Once I did, battery life is outstanding.
[Captivate Android Development] jeremytanner:
Yeah, same here. I ate up 60% of my battery in 3 hours without hardly touching it, then realized Maps had been automatically updated from the market. Switched back, and presto, great battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
Ok, so you guys removed the maps from your phones altogether?
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
You could freeze it with TiBu in case you need it for later.
[Captivate Android Development] jeremytanner:
I had a previous version backed up with TiBu. I just restored that.
[Captivate Android Development] djfrost40:
Yeah I just deleted that Honeycomb theme...i think ill stick to the original theme that came with the phone, for some reason I get better battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
Edit: Due to not reading thoroughly I now agree with the quote. :)
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
Cant be the honeycomb theme, or any theme. I just got a full day and 8 hours using the honeycomb theme.
[Captivate Android Development] rajendra82:
There is NO reason to flash 5.4 before 5.4.1. Look at the file sizes. Everything is included in 5.4.1. Look at the script inside the zip. It is identical, except the lines that format cache, data, and dbdata are commented out. Wipe these manually through CWM, and go straight to 5.4.1.
[Captivate Android Development] bigbooty:
What he said.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
I didn't see that it deleted /system when I browsed though there. Thanks for pouncing. :D
