I was able to change my Android ID on the first beta and it has stuck through all the updates.
[Captivate Android Development] Endoran:
I had no problem changing my android id using the id changer app. I'm still on B3 tho, I'm waiting for some bigger fixes before I flash a wipe rom (the only real fix for me is the soft reboot bug, but I only have had one, and I'm still using aosp lock screen cause it's not a huge deal to me). I have a feeling RC3 will be wipe too.

[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I had the same confusion. I think if you want to STAY on CW 2.5 we can just flash the RC2 ZIP as some indicated they did. Seems to me the updates are not exclusive to CW 3.0. I could be wrong though since it specifically says in the OP all updates must be flashed using CW3.....

So I am standing pat until I get a clarification, since someone claimed they flashed using 2.5 and keeping the previous 2.6.35 Kernal.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I just switch input method Keyboard when I want to look at about phone. Then switch it back to FlexT9 afterwards, All keyboards work. Its just that you cannot see "About Phone" unless you switch input to Samsung Keyboard.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
my phone always had a problem with the 3button after using regular odin. after i got 2.3 runnin i went into cwm before flashing the rom and flashed the 3buttonfix zip cuz i was scared i wouldnt have the 3 button recovery if something went wrong.The guy trying to help confused me a bit. to the warranty center it is. so f-in frustrated.
[Captivate Android Development] LNJ:
Xcal's kernel does not have supported for ext4 so yes disable it first.

Samsung Galaxy S i896 on Cezar's Continuum v5 GingerBread
[Captivate Android Development] OBatRFan:
Thanks for the reply. Worked great. Would be nice to see a Gingerbread version of GTG TW, though. It has the little things that I like. Alphabetical app drawer, choice of where to put your default home screen, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] jgaviota:
Thanks to both of you I really thought I had looked everywhere :o

Ok, I'm on RC1 and the only other report I could find is that after an id change then bootloop, and also I don't have the apk and the id changer app doesn't appear on the market. I did a google search and couldn't find anything.

So, what steps should I take to change the android id? Has anyone changed id successfully on RC1 or RC2?

Thanks!

Auto Rotation

I don't think turning off Auto-rotation fixed this rom. Usually on all roms up until now auto rotation is set to on, and the screens don't rotate unless you rotate the phone. Why would the screen rotate on its own before the phone is turned ? why would going to settings rotate the screen automatically. I love Continuum 4 but this is just a feature that turns me off Other than that nice job as always. Is this a ginger thing ? Thank you for your hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] CremeFraiche:
hmmm i have navigon and had to re-dl all my maps on wi-fi and kept the screen off while DLing, after about 1.5hrs i couldnt turn on the screen but can hear the screen on off sounds and phone can receive calls but screen still didnt turn on till i pulled the battery and booted up everything was normal. anyone else encounter something like that

on RC2 with xcals kernel
[Captivate Android Development] etijburg:
Just installed RC2

Man I love this ROM. Congrats on getting this right. Man this ROM FLIES!!!! I have run almost every ROM available and this thing is the BEST ROM I have used. Have not been able to check battery life yet but the next couple days will tell.

Thanks for all the hard work.

[Captivate Android Development] CremeFraiche:
kernel? c5 version? i dont have any of those issues with auto rotate, functions like it should for me
[Captivate Android Development] jgaviota:
You have to flash RC2 zip with a fixed kernel, please read the OP thoroughly and completely
[Captivate Android Development] louvass:
Coming from Froyo this is what I did, just as it said ?

With boot loaders – if you are coming from an Éclair or Froyo ROM | mirror | torrentC5ODINboot.zip contains the ODIN package with boot loaders named continuum5boot.tar.md5, ODIN.exe and one .ini file

* Reboot in download mode as described above

* Open ODIN (again, make sure you have full battery before flashing)

* Load continuum5.tar.md5 or continuum5boot.tar.md5 in PDA field.

* Hit start.

* Phone should reboot in recovery, perform a factory reset from here and reboot

* From this point the initial reboot should take around 5-10 minutes. If you are stuck in a boot loop, ask for support in the thread or on IRC channel

Then dl'ed

[Captivate Android Development] galt007:
RC2 so far has worked great for me...17 hrs on battery life with moderate usage. GPS works great. Thank you icezar for your hard work on this awesome ROM. I just have a minor issue...how can I install the secret live wallpapers from RC1 onto RC2 if that is even advisable?
[Captivate Android Development] Time_Zone:
Try flashing rc2 one more time. That should do it.
[Captivate Android Development] artvandalay22222:
Does launcher pro work with this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] jgaviota:
If a reflash of RC2 doesn't fix it, then Odin flash Talon, and from there flash the RC2 zip
[Captivate Android Development] brisknfade:
Yes it does.
[Captivate Android Development] CremeFraiche:
just open up RC1.zip with winzip/winrar then go to system/app and look for the secretwallpaper apks, should be 2 of em in there and install like u normally would with any apk
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:

Running it now and it works great.
[Captivate Android Development] mrcpu:
This works, but of course, you lose your icons and stuff on your home page, so you have to set that up again.

I have noticed this too, although it hasn't really bugged me yet. But it's definitely there.

I noticed in market.android.com the phone is shown as a Samsung GT-I9000. How was Continuum 4 shown? And is there a way to change that?
[Captivate Android Development] smithisize:
Nope, didn't work. No button combo worked, nor did recovery.

It's ok though. I just made a jig and flashed stock then back to continuum. No biggie.

LOVE this ROM! Nicely done :)

Well glad you were able to recover the phone and now you get to enjoy this with the rest of us :)

37 hours of moderate use......still have 39% left. FRIGGIN' PHENOMENAL!!

I'll probably end up charging to flash the new RC before this thing really needs to be charged again!

I have had ZERO issues with this rom (the first RC1).

Great job cezar!!

Why the kernel change?

Why Talon's kernel instead of the Xcal's kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] Tweak4fun:
I made one very similar in our lab at work. LOL!

I just needs to work once! :)

I did by one from ebay for $10 afterwards.
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
Talon has an update. Here
[Captivate Android Development] ugoff:
I can report success with this. After issues flashing, I did not wait for the battery to charge back up before the last attempt, so everytime I charged, pulling it off the cable would give me 74%. I would suggest charging the battery to full while off first, that way it matches the actual states of the battery.
[Captivate Android Development] garringm:
This afternoon I decided to check out the secret LWP's in the middle of doing so I took a lengthy call, after I hung up my phone automatically went into a soft reboot. While playing around with all the screens the way this rom is acting, it acts as though it's running out of swap or comp cache space, I had on several occasions were TW and a couple other apps reloaded themselves when going back to them. Why the reloads, could it be an issue with dalvik. This is on RC2, I never noticed this with b3 I may just revert back to that for now since I am having the charging issues as well

and what this android id that needs changed, can't that just be changed in build.prop whats the model you are trying to get sgh-i897
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
I have gotten into the habit of turning the phone off for the first charge after a rom/kernel flash. Could be why I've never seen the charge issue. Just a guess. Thanks for the info:)

Samsung Galaxy S i896 on Cezar's Continuum v5 GingerBread
[Captivate Android Development] antonyvijai:
Those who are willing to help...please help !

Just want to know / confirm the following before i embark on the adventure of moving from continuum version 4 (Froyo) to continuum version 5 (gingerbread):

1. I know it is a stupid question but i would like to know when will this ROM move from RC (Release Candidate) stage to GA (general availability) / final stage? The reason i am asking this is because this one moved from beta to RC literally in no time.

2. Is Touchwiz the default launcher for this ROM? If so is it the old touchwiz or the new TW version 4?

3. Can i use the samsung widgets (buddies now, feeds and updates, dual clock etc.) taken from my current 2.2.1 froyo build on this ROM?

4. After i install, if i want to restore using titanium backup pro then what batch option i should choose? Since i am moving from froyo build to gingerbread, i assume that i should use only the "restore missing apps and data". I usually back up all apps (user + sys). So, i guess it is "missing apps and data".

5. When i move from continuum version 4 to stock using odin one click method, do i need to delete all media and contents from my internal sd?

6. In the second odin step (installing the bootloaders), the odin window has auto reboot and F.Reset Time checked in. Do i need to keep it that way? Or do i need to make any change?

7. For flashing RC2, it is saying that i should have CWM3. I don't know if i will have CWM3 or CWM2. Currently I am on continuum version 4. If i follow the step what CWM will i have? 2 or 3?

8. When do i need to transfer the RC2.zip file to my internal sd? After, the bootloaders step i go straight to recovery stage. But, before that there is a factory reset which will wipe the contents of my internal sd.

9. Is Bluetooth working fine?

10. Is wi-fi working fine?

11. Is there any issue with connection to data network?

12. Are all google apps working fine? (gmail, contacts sync, calendar sync, maps, voice, talk, docs etc etc)

I sound too paranoid and risk averse. the reason is that i am following this thread like a hawk and i see lot of people reporting these issues. But, i see only a handful of them coming back and posting that the issues have been resolved. I love this ROM and that is why i am (being an amateur or as you call in this forum a noob / newbie!) trying to understand this inside out and then proceed to make my transition. Just a small history of my custom ROM flashing. I was on serendipity, firefly, stock kb1, cognition kb1, continuum version 4. The longest period i am on is with continuum version 4. Amazing ROM with crysis theme and some custom window animation i cooked in UOT kitchen. I have made the decision to stick with Cezar's work going forward and that is why i want to make sure i do this successfully. I cannot afford a hard brick since it is my primary phone :). So, i request suggestions/comments/advices. Thanks in advance
[Captivate Android Development] ugoff:
Is there supposed to be a custom boot animation for RC2? B3 had the Galaxy S default, but after flashing RC2, all I get is the built-in Android one.

*EDIT: I found the samsungani executable in /system/bin still works when executed, but is not being executed on boot. Also, regardless of name or location, neither bootanimation.zip or sanim.zip will work when executing /system/bootanimation. I suppose I should report this in the kernel thread...
[Captivate Android Development] mgfjd:
Cezar can you post the modem links on the first page? with cwm3? thanks..
[Captivate Android Development] garringm:
All these questions the best advice I can give is read the last 25 or so pages most if not all of your answers are there.

Second to the rest of the users I had mad a post about memory issues fwiw I read up a little about dalcik heap size so I upped my heap size and so far everything seems to be running incredibly smooth. No more home screen reloads. Before I was able to duplicate the soft reboot by opening and closing a lot of apps high resource apps back to back. In a nutshell it seems as though the apps are running out of memory that's how I see it. This used to happen on my tilt all the time when I would disable comp cache but that was back in the donut days.

I noticed that some games are really slow, like imobsters and words with friends. Not sure if its the kernel or the rom. Anyone else experience this? I tried ext4 and rfs with no difference.

Edit: with talon's latest update, the speed is much better.

RC3 is in tests. If you wanna be a guinea pig, come it the IRC channel and get the link.

[Captivate Android Development] Vivified:
You mean irc?
[Captivate Android Development] garringm:
Well back to the drawing board, I was typing in tapatalk and my phone went through another soft boot I am 90% certain that there is a memory issue causing the soft reboots but I'm not sure why.

I had my heap size upped to 86m the default is set at 64m, theres a min and a max heap size that you can set this too but Im not sure what they are. Everything was running smooth so I'm not sure what happened. just to see what effects chainging this would do I lowered it all the way down to 32 and my phone was riddled with reloads and reboots. I am leaning towards the lwp causing my problem. There is a way to check the heap size usage through the sdk tools but I have no way of doing this maybe someone else with the proper stuff can just to see. for now I am going to go back to what cezar built stock do away with the wallpaper (its a battery drainer anyways) and wait to see what comes out over the next few days.

My brothers phone is totally screwed up. I am pretty sure it's my own fault as I messed up doing the odin 1 click and got that white computer phone icon thing. I got it to go into download mode and installed as normal. Now it's freezing all over the place and 90% of the applications on the phone won't work.

Just a quick question (I think). I am trying to 1 click restore back to default ...

Does that restore the bootloader stuff to stock JF6 or do I need to use the no bootloader version of the download? Is there anything else I should do? Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] tmng95014:
I believe 1-click will get you back to JF6 with old loader and erase all trace of custom rom.
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
Get your brother's phone back to stock using ODIN one click (don't use the one with 3 button fix.. even if your phone needs it. I believe you can flash that after?). After you get the phone back to stock, carefully follow the instructions given in the OP.
[Captivate Android Development] brandonb81:
Thanks guys. Trying now.
[Captivate Android Development] billmouthclinton:
brick'd?

wow whats up guys, love continuum.... but I think it finally happened to me...

so i was on Continuum 4 and decided to to flash to 5, well I must have read something wrong somewhere and figured to flash to kernel to TALON beforehand, so I finstalled Talon in recovery, then hit reboot to recovery, and now I am stuck in a constant boot cycle. tried the 3 button download and recovery combinations and nothing works, style cycles the at&t, but after the at&t screen I get a screen filled with multi colored static snow!?

Am I screwed?
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
Pull the battery and then get into download mode if possible. 1 click back to JF6 and start over.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Seems to me you need to flash Talon using ODIN if you have CW 2.5......THEN you can flash the ROM using CWM.
[Captivate Android Development] billmouthclinton:
ok, so I kept trying to get it into download mode and it worked.

than I opened up odin and hit start, it was just sitting there not doing anything so i turned it off, now when I turn on the phone I get a screen all black with a cellphone..yellow caution yeild symbol with exclamation point.. computer...

wdf :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
Pull your battery and try odin again. I've had it happen a few times where odin wouldn't start but after a few tries I usually get it.

Also looks like About Phone issue is fixed in RC3 for me. Thanks icezar!
[Captivate Android Development] GeoMandell:
Is anyone else still having issues with Bluetooth? I've rebooted and battery pulled numerous times, but BT will not start at all, now.

Not a show-stopper as RC2 is much improved and amazing work.
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
The new talon kernel isn't too good on battery as the last one was, at least not for me. Im losing like 1% every 3 minutes while the screen is on. Im gonna keep testing though.
[Captivate Android Development] nakedninja42:
The battery charging to 100% is no longer an issue for me. The stats or something seemed to have reset itself so I don't have the weird battery problem anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] SkitchBeatz:
Battery hadn't been so great for me. Display is only at 37% (3 hours on time) and I only get ~16 hours. Strange. Maybe I need to recalibrate (i probably do...I've lost 4% just typing this message)

Some other things I've noticed:

1. The gallery FLIES. seriously I can't imagine it getting any faster.

2. every once in a while the device will lag and become unusable for 30 seconds. I'm on rfs so I still think it needs a lag fix. (I know there is an ext app bundled with the rom, btw)

3. While i understand the idea I'm Sick of the video player and music player not working under 10% battery, Samsung.

4. I don't know if it is a kernel thing but sometimes apps are closed out of memory REALLY fast.

5. The screen is really sharp and readable. More so than froyo w/speed mod K13E.

6. The browser is amazing. It rivals the speed of my xoom. Handles flash with ease.

7. Tasker can't control GPS toggling. Seems like google disabled that feature for apps. Speaking of which...the GPS is....the GPS

Great ROM overall. Can't wait to see how it evolves

Hi Cezar,

I followed every step in page 1 and my phone is at C5 (great!).

My CWM is currently 2.5. Flash the rc2 update with CMW not version 3 will brick my phone?
[Captivate Android Development] F1reEng1neRed:
If you're still on CWM 2.5, flash the latest Talon kernel and it will give you CWM 3. You can then flash RC2.
