From C4 to C5.4

Guys:

I've been working out of town for 3 weeks and I come back and Cezar already have C5.4 on GB 2.3.3 this is awesome!!! Thanks again for all this crazy / fantastic job you are doing! I just have a question from the OP (sorry I'm sure this has been answered many times) from what I understand I have to do the following:

1. Copy 5.4 to sd card (May I install 5.4 coming from Stock or do I have to install all the previous releases?)

2. Go back to stock using Odin

3. Update my Boot loaders to GB using Odin

4. Flash new kernel (talon) using Odin

5. Perform a master clear from recovery

6. Flash new C5.4 Rom

Can anybody please let me know if this is the correct order/steps to move from C4 to C5.4, I would really appreciate it. Can't wait to leave from work and flash this new version. So excited!!! ;)

Thanks for all the help and Thanks again Cezar for keeping this project alive!

Icezar... Thank you.. Iam going to try it. I had issues with talon 116 and gps Google navigation. It broke after driving a few miles.. I did a complete wipe reset. The same problem again.. I reverted back to 114. After that, The program work flawless.. I did wipe the dalvic cache cache and reset from factory...

Gps worked fine with everything else...
[Captivate Android Development] kant5t1km3:
just flashed a big helping of 5.4 AWESOMESS! flawless, fast.... restoring apps now

what theme will work on 5.4? same one as 5.3? ask this because Cesar rebuilt it.
[Captivate Android Development] rjyanj:
Too cautious?

Here is what I'm doing .. am I taking extra unnecessary steps?

I'm going back to jf6 stock through 1-click.

MasterClear.

Flash continuum5boot through odin3. (contains GB bootloaders)

Place latest c5 rom onto sdcard and reboot into recover.

Done.

From what I'm reading in Method 2, I can just place the latest c5 rom onto my sdcard -- load up an CWM3 kernel, then install rom in recovery and reboot and I'm done? Is the "factory reset" from recovery sufficient? And do I need to load up the CWM3 kernel if I'm already running say talon .1.5?

Seems too easy and I don't want to cause any problems. I've always sworn by MasterClear/jf6 in Froyo .. so it's kind of a habit, but seems kind of irrelevant since we're in GBland now.

Thanks. -R
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Follow method 1 to the letter, it never fails (at least 99% of the cases).

TW4 is working fine with this last version, freezing problem is gone! thanks :D

HeLauncher + Application List + Charging = Reboot

I've run into the issue of rebooting whenever I am using HeLauncher + in the Application List + Charging through USB. I tried changing voltage and reflashing but am still experiencing the issue. If I am not plugged in the USB, everything works fine. Any ideas?

[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
I used TW + usb cable, it freezes and reboots. I'm going to change to launcher pro (as I usually do) and see if it happens again

update - nope. still freezes as soon as I plug in the usb cable.

update2 - changed to JVH 016 kernel and the freezing is fixed
[Captivate Android Development] jcr81:
Flashed 5.4 this morning. So far, it is flawless and FAST! Overclocking to 1.5probably has something to do with that but blazing nonetheless. I did have a bit of occaisional stutter when opening the Launcher pro app drawer and when accessing some of the menus, etc, but I disabled VM: swappyness and it is now as smooth as can be. Thanks!!
[Captivate Android Development] GSMinCT:
NoLED

Has anyone gotten NoLED to be able to be dismissed and them bring up the lock screen with the power button? On Froyo, I could push the power button, and the lock screen would come up. Now, I push the power button, and screen just shuts off. I did check use power button to dismiss NoLED in NoLED's settings.

Oh, and is there a way to get rid of the CRT animation? It's going to get a little annoying after a while.
[Captivate Android Development] gregoor:
Im getting freeze and Reboot whenever i plug in usb????
[Captivate Android Development] stanton93:
Damn ... im so jealousy that there are so many 2.3.3 roms for Captivate and there are so few 2.3.3 roms for Vibrant. Well anyways .. keep up the good work and I hope the guys working on vibrant too will produce a stable 2.3.3 rom.

Cheers !
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
flash 016 JVH kernel (link in OP) and the freezing issues are fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
can we just flash the 5.4 ROM over the 5.3?

will it automatically upgrade the JVB to JVH?
[Captivate Android Development] topiratiko:
Will themes still work on jvh?
[Captivate Android Development] blue265:
Just turn off animations under settings display -no animation to turn off crt animation
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
I'm not saying this to you specifically but people in general.

In 2nd post of OP, it says in the changelog: "You can flash over anything" (if you have gingerbread bootloader that is; if you don't do that first). Please read as cezar put so much time not only with the rom but the op as well!

So yes you can flash from 5.3 to 5.4 without any harm.
[Captivate Android Development] gregoor:
THat fixed it flashing 016 kernel

[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
yes, as post #2 says - just perform a factory data reset from recovery menu just to be safe.

I'm not sure but my guess is no.

good to hear! :)
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Minor bug report for me.

On initial boot, I chose HE Launcher, just until I could get launcher pro installed. As I waited for the media scanning to complete, the phone froze up and and HE launcher stopped responding. I had the option to "close" or "wait". I hit "wait", and the phone became responsive again.

I installed launcher pro, rebooted, and the exact same thing happened again (with launcher pro giving me the "not responding" error). When I hit "wait", it eventually fixes itself.

I tested a 3rd reboot, and it's still happening. Everything seems to run fine once it gets going, but this is consistently happening on every boot.

I'm going to try and reflash and see what happens.

Edit: I notice one of my backup files for "MyBackup Root" is corrupt, and won't restore. Perhaps there's an error on my card, and it's contributing to the error?

Edit#2: I went to backup my SD card so I could format it, and got the "reboot when connected to USB" error some have reported.

Final Edit: Factory wipe, format of external SD card, and reflash seems to have fixed issues... including flashing to 1.6 jvh
[Captivate Android Development] santosh134:
Thank you cezar. This ROM is really fast. I truly appreciate your hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] Geezer000:
I don't know about anyone else but the ROM is WAY TO FAST!!!!! It's making me feel old and slow..... good job Cezar!!!! ;)
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Just flashed 5.4. Simply amazing. All apps TiBu'd in. No lag at all so far.

Let the testing commence!
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
I want to flash this rom but i really like the icons from gr-12 any way to put those in this rom
[Captivate Android Development] gio22:
So, I've been run 5.4 now for about 4 hours. I'm using Go Launcher and Steve Lin's Gingerbread Keyboard from the Market and have zero issues so far. Will be checking out the GPS in a couple of hours, but so far this ROM is a winner.

Plug in USB - Shut down Recharge Mode

Anyone have an issue when you plugged in the USB cable that it shuts down? I mean shuts all the way down and starts recharging.

EDIT: Continuum 5.4 - DISREGARD see the fix now...thanks
[Captivate Android Development] dude_uuk:
Hi TorqueWrench001 and to all others that tried to help...appreciate all your comments and suggestions. But I did everything you told and suggest but still to no avail. Gonna try the jtag thing as my lst resort to revive my dead cappy...just gonna find someone who can do it for me from my place...hopefully they are good...thanks again guys...

Never gonna find out how good V5 is now...but I know it rocks as the other continuum versions i have tried...
[Captivate Android Development] nelsonw:
It seems i'm the only who don't see this kernel. Talon 0.1.6 only is for JVB... where is the JVH 0.1.6? o read the OP twice... :( :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Working fine for me.
[Captivate Android Development] betadan:
This is fraking beautiful :D Love it!
[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
Good to see you flashing away on GB :)
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
I've been running 5.4 for about am hour now and WOW! My god man, this thing is crazy fast and smooth! Running OC to 1.2ghz. Thank you Icezar
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Yeah, good to be back from business travel and getting back to normal things. Thanks for helping me out via PMs, buddy.

From post #2....click the link.....

------ quote post # 2 -----------

5/9/2011 - v5.4 - Download | Mirror - md5: 062EB993AB7EB761FCEAEA5DDB254D8F

* wipe release, however, perform a factory reset from recovery just to be sure *

* flash over anything *

* no need to disable lagfix *

* 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 *

* JVB kernels are not compatible with JVH *

* If you have troubles take a look here *

Started from scratch with JVH as a base

Exclusive Talon 0.1.7 kernel for JVH from eXistZ with OC cap. up to 1.5GHz (No OC/UV by default, after startup set it from Voltage Control app)

Multiple tweaks available in Tweaks app.

All lags should be gone on this release (for me is lightning fast)

Camera has option to enable/disable GPS tag

--------------------------------
[Captivate Android Development] TigerEnigma:
They may have meant JVB 0.1.6, I do not see a JVH 0.1.6 either.

EDIT: In the OP...where is it says *If You have troubles take a look here* As noted by sstarre in BOLD pink...like a dork I missed it:)
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
SO what's the consensus with 1.6 vs. 1.7?

I see people with home button issues on 1.6.

I plugged in USB and I didn't get a freeze (yet).

Thanks cezar for the great work!
[Captivate Android Development] ScottyNuttz:
TW4.0 still freaking out occasionally for me... I have about 14 items on my homescreen.
[Captivate Android Development] sstarre:
don't feel too bad..i barely noticed it..and thanks for being more specific in your post cuz I looked on the XDA app and the highlight gets lost :D
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
I used TW for about the first 20 minutes just to check it out and it performed just fine for me. Much better than the versions in the previous releases. Although, I prefer Sony Launcher, it's so much better than anything else IMO.
[Captivate Android Development] TigerEnigma:
Thanks man, things can move so fast with people posting on here...especially when we have a new add like Continuum releases. By the time you type out your question or comment and review it to make sure you don't sound like an idiot...someone has already answered it, or asked the same question.
[Captivate Android Development] nelsonw:
ahhhhh ok... now i see it!! :eek:

Thanks!

CpuSpy is showing some time@1500mhz even with no overclocking.
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Takes a moment or two for the "set on boot" option to kick in on startup.

Got Gingerbread?
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Nice work cezar. Jvh is way better.

Got Gingerbread?
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
I keep forgetting to mention a minor issue. Ever since Coninuum V4 I have difficulty with Wifi maintaining a connection, when I turn the screen on it has reverted to using data connection, no biggie to turn back on Wifi but I am not seeing anyone else reporting this so I thought I would mention it. I am no rc3 currently and it is still doing it. I am downloading the latest Continuum and plan to flash it later today, I don't have time atm.
[Captivate Android Development] minotaur507:
Excellent speed with the new JVH kernel. icezar1, any chance you might request that existz include the TUN.KO VPN module for the next build of the kernel? It seems to be missing from the 0.1.7 that comes included...

Thanks in advance!
[Captivate Android Development] gio22:
I've had that issue before a couple of times, but it has been intermittent. I would go to Settings, Wi-Fi and then it would connect, but that has been rare.
[Captivate Android Development] demonte21:
Hello!

I did have some weird issue while trying to charge my phone over my computer USB port... the phone froze up, and needed to remove battery...

I put back the battery, power on the phone, plug back my usb cable... and the phone froze again on the booting... and shut down by itself...

So I'll try charging with my regular charger tonight.

Other then that, I still experience high battery drain when setting an Exchange account with the included e-mail app. (about 8% to 15% /hour battery drain) when no exchange account set, I got about 1-2% battery drain/hour.

Thanks for your hard work and keep up the great job!:)
[Captivate Android Development] existz:
The charger issue has been reported...working on it now
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
I seem to be stuck on 1300 mhz, It shows 1000 in the voltage app. I tried "save as boot settings" and then reboot (tried 2x), and I am still showing 1300 in cpu spy. This is causing my phone to run hot, and it has shutdown a couple times already.

Any suggestions?
[Captivate Android Development] Grandelama:
I mean, the timer @1500mhz is increasing during normal usage. For example when I scroll pages in the TW drawer.
[Captivate Android Development] kppanic:
I second that. Cpu stuck at 1.5 voltage control does not work. Reverted to 0.1.6 kernel but seems to lag a bit...
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
Am I missing something? I'm not having this issue at all. I'm a bit confused. If this issue had become a known issue then why isn't everyone experiencing it? Is out something that is related to the OS type on your computer or maybe something that has been restored from a previous ROM build?
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
I'm set at 1ghz max, and my plug seems to work fine.

Maybe an OC issue?
[Captivate Android Development] jdv1:
I'm having the same problem.
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
any one?---???
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
Nope Im OC'd to 1.2.
[Captivate Android Development] Juan Bond:
Hi all I have a question, the only way I can use overclocking without reboot loop is only using maximum and minimum at 1.5 with SetCPU. That's a bug?

The quadrant score is 2894!

after that i no have any issue

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
Uninstall setcpu and just use the voltage control app that's included in the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] know8677:
I guess I'm in the minority here. I love the ROM and have been using it on my primary phone since RC1.

That being said, I'm not seeing any speed improvements. In fact, it seems to me that every version since RC3 has gotten just a little bit slower than the last.

It's still working fine for me, but nothing that I would call fast. I would say it's about on par with the original stock Eclair on the phone in terms of speed.

Also, I guess it's just me also who notices the scrolling issues in the browser as well as the glitch it has with handling the home page and re-opening the app when it is running in the background. On a fresh open, it opens google and not my home page. If I open it when it's already running, it opens a new tab instead of going to the page I was on.

Also, when I'm working from the list of apps and open and then open an app - when I press the back key I am sent to the home screen and not the list of apps where I just was.
[Captivate Android Development] DaUnderSheriff:
JVH? Let the flashing begin!

Well, just when I thought I had found a new daily driver - my addiction kicked in when I saw this post this morning. Dang it! Now I have to flash another new ROM and take it for a spin. I know - nobody is twisting my arm!
[Captivate Android Development] Juan Bond:
Thanks first of all, I try that but it freezes and then gives reboot.

Only with SetCPU I can get to 1.5 but must be Min and Max 1.5.

And it eats batteries but I like the performance. any solution for that or is it a bug?

Thanks for the help again!
[Captivate Android Development] rockosifraldi:
Weird Bug

I just OC'd to 1.2 and put the phone to charge and it went power off :eek:

Got to test more :)
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
I have to agree that with no over clocking RC3 seemed to have been a bit faster than every build after RC3. I don't like to move backwards so I choose to stick to newer builds and OC. To each his own. I will say that 5.4 and over clocking to 1.2 has made my phone perform better than it ever has.
[Captivate Android Development] smackdownn:
cant go any further than 1200mhz..which causes my phone to reboot!
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
can we install RC3 MIUI lockscreen on it?
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
Did you just flash over the previous version or did you also perform a factory reset from recovery before installing 5.4?
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Ugh. Market FC'd and phone froze

Reboot and all my apps are like not installed anymore.:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] Juan Bond:
I have the same issue
[Captivate Android Development] nyydynasty:
there was a charging issue with the stock 017 kernel. try 016 (link is in post #2). its worth a shot. maybe there's more than one bug with 017.

Phone Locks up

Rom looks good but as soon as the USB is plugged in it freezes, have to pop battery but no way out of it. Catch 22 can't get a another rom on it either. Also I noticed on a factory reset nothing is wiped, same with clearing user data in CWM

Just updated to 5.4. Havent used it but 10 minutes but holy crap its fast! Faster than I have seen so far on Continuum v5. Great job.

Those with charger issues...READ the 2nd post, should be a link to 0.1.6-JVH..flash it if your having reboots with usb... this issue has been discussed for the last 3 pages or so..

Im WORKING on a fix

Did you double-check WiFi sleep policy? It could have been changed by a stray app. Did you try WiFi Fixer from the market?
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
All,

I have ben running 5.4 over clocked to 1.2 for about 2 hours now. I have installed all of my apps from TBU and the market, plugged and unplugged my phone from the computer countless times and I have not had any issues thus far. I performed a factory reset from recovery installed 5.4 and flashed the KC1 modem. Maybe I'm just the lucky one.
[Captivate Android Development] Yaantra:
How is the battery life?
[Captivate Android Development] gio22:
I did double-check the sleep policy when it happened to me, but it was set to Never which is what I believe the default is on this ROM. For me, it only happened on 5.3 and again, it was only a couple of times. So far with 5.4, I haven't seen the issue yet, but who knows.
[Captivate Android Development] louvass:
I understand you're are working on the USB issue and I appreciate that,but how would I get out of this if every time I plug in It freezes ;(
[Captivate Android Development] rockosifraldi:
Thank you !.. Love your work
[Captivate Android Development] climber1872000:
Download 1.6 tar on your phone and use the CWM app in your app drawer to flash it and you'll be fine.
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Sleep policy is set to never. I will try the app, thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Deadclown:
Are there any themes that work for this version? I tried Muveszur Black Port(Continuum v5.3) and broke something. Got it working right after re-installing 5.4

btw, does anybody UV any? if so can you please share your settings?

Again, thank you Cezar. Thank you. Least I can do is buy u a beer (do u care about taste? :p)
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Hmm... I'm getting the freezing again during the media scanning after boot. The same issue I reported earlier. Phone locks up for about 10 seconds, then whatever launcher I'm using crashes. I pick "wait" twice, then the phone becomes responsive again.

Everything works fine after that, but it's happening every boot. The first time it happened immediately off of a fresh install (1st boot). I reflashed and it seemed fixed... but has suddenly started again.

It first scans SD Card, then phone memory with no problem. Then it gets to "USB Storage" and that's when the freeze/crash happens.
[Captivate Android Development] antonyfl:
could a stock gingerbread TouchWiz theme be implemented as a flashable CMW3 for a future release? I personally prefer the original touchwiz theming to be honest :P
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Anything special I need to know before diving into the UOT Kitchen for C5.4, while our valiant themers start re-porting themes?
[Captivate Android Development] welchertc:
Ok, probably a stupid question, but I'm just checking to be sure...I'm on 5.3 right now, so all I need to do to get to 5.4 is perform the wipe/factory reset then flash 5.4, correct?
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Will have a look. Really sorry for those which had problems.. Will take it up with eXistZ and I am sure he'll be able to cure it in a minute
[Captivate Android Development] minotaur507:
Absolutely no apologies are necessary, icezar. This ROM is a thing of beauty! Working great for me so far. Just the minor inconvenience of not being able to contact my office network...oh, well...looks like I get the rest of the day off... lol.

Thanks again, this ROM is smokin' fast and rock solid from what I have seen over the last few hours. Not a single lag at all...
[Captivate Android Development] Geezer000:
Hey, do you by chance have a copy of the 1.7 kernel for us who flashed back to 1.6 and want to try 1.7 again?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Gps is controlled by the modem. Try a different modem.

Got Gingerbread?
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Correct, the factory reset is optional but you can perform it
