You know, I had an issue with the Program Monitor widget, and in trying to fix it, I somehow messed everything up and had to go to an earlier nandroid backup. And I couldn't recreate the GPS success I had. But things seem to be back and okay now, but with Adam's fix now.

In case you want to try the files from Phoenix 2.2 (Adam's) or Mosaic III, I'll post the cwm3 flashable files (created with amend2edify).

Won't lock on to 850 for me. Anyone else seeing this?
[Captivate Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
I bricked my phone already and had to spend hours unbricking after installing this rom.

Hey, Canadian Rogers users? How exactly am I supposed to install this rom? Step by step guide please?

I flashed the bootloaders > restarted to download mode > flashed the kernel then restarted and attempted to get on recovery.

It wouldn't read or mount my internal sd card, so I was almost stuck with a dead phone and a dead recovery and I couldn't flash this rom.

I'm on a Rogers Captivate.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
If you don't get 850 then you need to flash using the method in my sig.
[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
The Samsung home is the basic launcher and has 7 screens.
[Captivate Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
Big thanks to anyone who responds to my post. Help this poor noob out.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
I just tried the revert-5.5 and it is still boot-looping. I will try the other changes to the script you mentioned but the fact that it stops with an "error 6" makes me think there is something else wrong that won't be fixed by commenting any lines - there is a updater-binary in the same folder as well - maybe that somehow needs to change?

I only want the phone functional enough to run TB and backup Good so I can do a full stock refresh and start over. I am thinking about trying the 5.4.1 no-wipe. Thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] bullinthechinashop:
Go launcher also lets you add screens. I don't know what the max is but I've got seven pages right now. ADW launcher lets you add pages too but the way you do it isn't as easy or intuitive as with Go launcher.

My favorite is Go launcher (which is free!) followed by ADW (I think the pay version was $2) and then Zeam.

Go launcher has a lot of themes but a lot of them are $1.

Go weather is also very cool and also free.
[Captivate Android Development] bullinthechinashop:
What state are you in? (I'm in Indiana)

I've tried three modems and none of them gave me anything remotely approaching great performance.
[Captivate Android Development] djinferno806:
Hey its the exact same method as the american AT&T captivate owners.

Just revert back to JF6 by using the one click. Then flash the bootloaders and then flash the gingerbread kernel. After that you should be able to boot into recovery by pressing +volume and power at the same time and releasing it when you see the AT&T logo. After that you can flash the ROM no problem...
[Captivate Android Development] Alexstarfire:
That is way too much effort just to figure out what my phone is doing. If worse comes to worst then I'll just figures out what apps I actually need and start over from there, or at least see if this still occurs with only stock apps. Been carrying around these apps through so many different ROMs and such that I wouldn't be all that surprised if something just got messed up.

Can't seem to do that in the free version of Titanium.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
I use Root Uninstaller. It will allow you to back up an app instead of deleting. The free version will allow you to freeze and restore up to 3 times before asking you to pay for it. Since Maps isn't a system app, just uninstall it. If that doesn't fix your problem, you can always dl from the market again.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Don't forget that when you initially flash the kernel Reboot must be unchecked.
[Captivate Android Development] typ44q:
I have been getting those speeds with every modem that has been included in cezars ROMs so I dont think it is a limitation of the stock modem.
[Captivate Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
That may have been the problem. I flashed the bootloader, I remembered to uncheck reboot that time. BUT when I went back to download mode again I forgot to uncheck it while flashing the Talon kernel.

That may have been when I screwed up.

modem

Using UGJL2 here and just got 4883 down and 1271 up. Very peppy.
[Captivate Android Development] Infiniti350GT:
Donation made - I have never enjoyed my phone as much as I do right now. Love the speed, features, theme, I haven't had to do anything to it besides restore my apps and widgets! Amazing.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
But what speeds did you have with other modems, like ZSJPG, JVK, JK4,JQ1,or TDVJP9(stock for C5.5)?
[Captivate Android Development] Storm T:
Best I got before and that's just using the stock modem that came with everything was 3840 down and 1200 or so up. Not positive on those numbers but somewhere in that range. I could tell a difference with this one when I flashed it yesterday.
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Seems to vary wildly for me (using speedtest.net app and stock modems) but I'm always in the range of 3000-5500 down and 1000-3000 up.

I just ran it today and I'm getting 1900 down and 2900 up. Very weird. I've never had upload be faster.
[Captivate Android Development] Storm T:
That is odd. Hurry and up some stuff! lol
[Captivate Android Development] Sgt_Bilbo:
Has anyone noticed a problem with the unread email count in the notification bar not updating, but constantly going up, even throughly of the emails are marked as read in the email app itself? If so, any idea how to fix it? ( I know is not a critical thing, but it is a little annoying)

Thanks in advance!!

[Captivate Android Development] Storm T:
Not here but I use Touchdown. Works fine for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:

Just curious if anyone has done any speed tests on Wifi? I'm on a 25Mb connection using a wireless N router. My phone tends to get about 11000 Kbps (which is nothing to complain about!). But I'm just curious if this is around the limitation of the chip, as I've never seen better.

Modems

The sticky modem thread:

[Modems] - (Froyo & Gingerbread) - WCDMA 850 enabled

Guys, this thread has just about every modem out, in CWM2- and CWM3-flashable zips.
[Captivate Android Development] nouseferaname90:
I'm not going to promote anyone to do what I did, but normally I use adw and I unstalled the other launchers that I could and its been working fine with me.

But interesting note: with this rom compared to serendipity, I tend to get better reception but lower wifi range.
[Captivate Android Development] Time_Zone:
I followed your method to the letter, neither of the gingerbread modems want to do 850.
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
When you check the combi bands, does 850 have an asterisk next to it. If so, then it is looking for it, but it could be that the area you are testing has another band that is stronger.

Have you tried to deactivate the other bands to just have it look for 850?
[Captivate Android Development] Holmes108:
Wow. Nice to know it's capable of DL speeds like that.
[Captivate Android Development] Time_Zone:
If you follow shoman94's method, that is how it is done. 850 checked, all others unchecked, still homing in on 1900 and ignoring 850. I figured as you did, okay, 1900 is stronger, but when I drive into a 850 only area it can't find ANY signal. I tried both GB modems and see this. If someone else were to test this then we could get confirmation that this is the case. Of course I suppose I should move this conversation to the modem thread if I really want to pursue it.

well in quadrant cm7 gets a huge increase in the cpu score, basically it is more optimised for the hummingbird like froyo was on the snapdragon. some benchmarks wont show the difference and i suspect it is in areas related to media processing.
[Captivate Android Development] eatonjb:
works great!!! Gingerebread for life!!! (Or untill something comes out better)

I was getting used to and liking having the auto-rotate off, but its good now that I can use it any it works great!
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
im sure. if it were ext4 that would be a complicated update in kies. it would take quite a while especially if the user has alot of apps. all the system data and user apps would need a backup, there would need to be a thorough reformat, and data apps would need to be restored. it is posible but they it would take a while and create a risk of losing data.

also check the kernels in the i9000 section. some put rfs in the features list.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
I know this question has been answered somewhere in the 60 plus pages of this thread but I going to ask again. I have a phone without 3 Button so when I go to Stock I have always Flashed back with Odin with 3 button fix included. So after I place the new Bootloaders it my understanding that my phone will now "always" have 3 button capability, first is this correct? Say after I have got new Bootloaders and I want to try a different Custom GB ROM and I need to go to Stock I would just use Odin 1 Click and I would be at Stock and I would have the 3 Button capability and I would be ready to Flash another ROM?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] n00b_wm:
Once you get 3buttonfix you should not have to do it over. I only did 3buttonfix once and I have had it throughout different roms and flash back to stock.

To try another rom, it is recommended to go back to stock and yes you would have 3button.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Thanks for reply so the Odin 1 click (I have 1.3 version) would get me to Stock? There not some "new" Odin 1 click just for GB is there?
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
once you flash bootloaders they stay there till you flash bootloaders again. for the 3 button effected phones you should flash the good bootloaders(3-button fix) once and then use a stock rom without bootloaders from then on.

do not 3-button fix to restore from this rom. it only flashes the sbl.bin not boot.bin. you will need to oneclick back to stock without 3-button fix. then adb into download and flash the 3button fix.

still no answer for people with 1010-1011 phones that cant use onin one click. a new .tar needs to be made or perhaps let it soft brick then bring it back with full odin. scary i know.

there is a jf6 .tar for full odin around somewhere that is "safe" and will not break the 3button fix because it doesnt flash bootloaders. this is the version you should use.

i recommend flashing to stock without bootloaders when ever possible.

the i9000 gingerbread bootloader changes the 3button combos but wont harm the phone, they are backwards compatable though you get a quick i9000 splash on the startup even after odin flashes the param.ifs to the att splash which shows after the i9000 one. it must be part of the bootloader.

i cant say with certainty that they are safe for a phone that had a 3button problem but being some i9000s had a similar problem these "should" also work for captivates that had that problem.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
dont believe i saw any oneclick versions. you just download the version w/bootloaders and flash with odin full. on odin3 v1.3 and up there is a checkbox to select if you are doing a bootloader update.

after you have working button combos you should use the full version of odin without updating botloaders from then on, unless you want it back to att stock for warrety service.
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
Thanks for info
[Captivate Android Development] squishy5:
does this work with the I9000 reoriented vG.1.0 04.23.201 version

and does touchiz 4 come with it
[Captivate Android Development] RonH54:
"there is a jf6 .tar for full odin around somewhere that is "safe" and will not break the 3button fix because it doesnt flash bootloaders. this is the version you should use"

So this tar file would be what I use with Odin when I needed to revert to stock once I had the New Bootloaders on my phone?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] dizx:
Yep. Ok, just checking with you and it seems that you have all the combi bands active. 1900 is strong in my area, but it locks on quick to an 850 when it can.

I have done the modem dance on Froyo, and once on Continuum when coming back from JL2 modem.

However, on a fresh flash of Continuum, I never had to do the modem dance coming directly from the JV9 modem. I flashed JQ1 directly over it and I had all the bands there with no issues.
[Captivate Android Development] pinoymutt:
The apk is called ArcLauncher in the data/app folder of the main C5.5 zip.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Just make a copy on your computer of the rom, then use 7 zip to extract it

[Captivate Android Development] Shammyh:
Has anyone found the latest v5.5 build to be a bit buggier than 5.4.1?

Perhaps I just have a bad flash, but I've noticed the following problems:

- Random shutdowns when the battery is less than 20%

- Random lockups, where the whole OS crawls for 5-10 seconds

- Worse WiFi performance (signal and throughput)

- Problems with wakelocks (aka, device "waking up" while the screen is off) and wasting battery

All of this is with the "stock" 5.5 Talon kernel, and with almost no additional apps installed.

Any thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] neffarious:
Yes, same exact problem here. No idea on how to fix tho.

Well, simply plays the continuum animation that also shows up in the boot screen. Then goes thru the process of media scanning etc.

What could be going wrong? This has pretty much been the case since I flashed 5.5. And re-flashed it a couple of times too.

- I have advanced task killer running

- and Startup cleaner pro running

Rest everything is pretty much stock, including the theme.

talon vs xcal

I know, I know, talon works great. But Ii really tried. Same apps installed, nothing except swapping kernel, and now that I've gotten on talon, I've gotten SoD during the night every single night, so the alarm is useless, When I got back from lunch today, it was dead sitting on my desk, but after bootup at 88%. No weird apps in startups/autostarts. Heck, last night, about 2Am I rolled over to check the time, it was dead, turned it on, just waited until the time appeared, and then set it down w/o even unlocking it, and at 7 it was dead again. So it's hard for me to believe it's some app I'm running. I just don't do anything remotely funky with it.

And I just flat out didn't have the same trouble on xcal.

I'm going to go to 5.5 from 5.4.1, but I'd like to be confident that there's an xcal kernel that will work, because I hate going backwards.

But there's gotta be some weird interaction that's causing this, or else, those of you running talon that "think" it's smooth, don't really know what smooth is with xcal. :)

Anyway. If anybody knows if there's an xcal kernel that's compatible with continuum 5.5?
