AT&T will be in charge of updating the note, just like they were with captivate, not Samsung, Rogers released gingerbread for the I896 MONTHS AGO, it's not Samsung's fault the I897 was only updated after gingerbread had pretty much run it's corse.

And the nexus should get it's updates straight from google. It's a nexus, that's the deal.

But being a "developer" (i use that term super loosely) i mainly look at hardware specs, cause the software I'm gonna tweak the hell out of either way.
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Agree... told my guys at the local ATT store to put on off to the side for me when they come in. :)
[Captivate Android Development] sthodupunuri:
i was wondering if IX makes use of the graphics and 3D processing update that came with the captivate's update to gingerbread?
[Captivate Android Development] chavocarlos:
If this feature isn't present yet in Mosaic IX (based in i9000 GB firmware), I think is not posible because this is based in i9000 firmware not i897 firmware, for a custom rom based in i897 firmware you can check Fusion, a rom from The Collective too, and based in KK4 firmware, now AT&T official upgrade to GB.

Sorry if my explain is some weird, English isn't my native language.
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
There is another native i897 kk4 build from The Collective called Legend. It's a little known project but another great rom from The Collective.

My brother in law has had a captivate for about 3 months and has stock 2.2. I know I know. Its been a long time and I have never had to flash from stock 2.2. Do I need to flash back to 2.1 then to 2.3 captivate then to mosaic or is there a faster way.
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
No need to go back. Only forward ;)

There are links and instructions for stock GB at the bottom of the second post.

Phoned in.....
[Captivate Android Development] pickupman66:
YUP,. those links are the way to go to get to Mosaic.
[Captivate Android Development] soblecram:
any way to change the battery icon in Montage? Don't see anything on the OTA website under batteries... (sorry, but I don't like the one currently in Mosaic, although I love everything else..)
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
You can use the DarkyOTA app from the market, or the UOT kitchen, or modify the theme yourself. Any batteries in the OTA will be based off the stock MIX release and would overwrite the Montage (or other theme) modifications.
[Captivate Android Development] soblecram:
would it wreck the whole framework and all the changes that are so lovingly installed on my phone, or will it change just the battery? (Either Darky or UOT method ; sorry, not too good at modding myself)
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Nope, just changes the images and/or xmls for the battery.
[Captivate Android Development] soblecram:
Thanks. Will give Darky a try....

Works Great!!! Thank you so much Joe and Studa.....
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd8605:
is mosaic IX a full wipe?
[Captivate Android Development] jaquez4:
Quick question, if I do a system format (erase everything) will it screw up the phone any such as cause a softbrick or bootloops? I will more than likely give phone to bro-in-law but would like to leave root and rom on for him as he is a huge fan of it.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
formatting /system will wipe the os off the phone. Won't get passed the kernel splash.

Just wipe data/factory reset to get all of your user data, then it will be like you just flashed. Will even get the set up wizard I'm pretty sure
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Yeah, you'll get the setup wizard. I'd just flash the rom again, that way you wipe all your apps off too.

Will need to wipe your dcim folder to delete any pics you may have. Of course, there are app caches all over, so if you have anything you don't want passed along, good idea to look at hidden folders in quickpic. ;)

When I bought my spare phone the person didn't realize that. Nothing good on there, but sure he didn't want even the tame pics still on there.
[Captivate Android Development] ashies7:
edit... Forget previous comment....My phone doesn't have memory... It's all on sd.... Lol
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Wipe data/Factory reset wipes your apps...they are installed in /data :)

Edit: But yeah i forgot about pics and stuff. Easiest way to do that would be to just go to mounts and storage in cwm after the data wipe and format sdcard.

double edit: lol frac you ninja'd what i was editing :p
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
Format sd to get rid of the rest

[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
I believe you... I just could swear the last time I did a factory reset that there were still some apps on there that I had installed post rom install.
[Captivate Android Development] Steve_O_1971:
First, I wanted to say thanks for a great ROM, easy install, and easy to follow instructions provided by a fellow Tennessean. ^^

Then I wanted to ask about Google music, I tried to update it, and it gives me a signature error. Is there a workaround, our should I just not worry about updating it.

I apologize in advance if this has been covered, or if it is simply a noob question.

Sent from a noob on a Galaxy-I897 rocking Mosaic IX using XDA App
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
google music in the ROM is themed, so that's why you get the signature error, try uninstalling it, then installing fresh from the market.

You will have to use tibu to uninstall cause it's in /system/app so the native uninstaller won't work.
[Captivate Android Development] Steve_O_1971:
I'll try that now and get back to you.

Edit: removed via tibu, downloaded via market, when it was time to install, it now says "incompatible backup". Any other thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Ok, just tried it...you need to reboot before trying to download it from the market.
[Captivate Android Development] Steve_O_1971:
Correct sir, I really appreciate your quick replies. Thanks a million!

[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
I'm loving Mosaic 9. But I'm having some problems...

1. The battery seems to drain way faster than Mosaic 8. I tried battery calibration etc... and it didn't help. I'll try to change the kernel to Semaphore Big Mem Version.

2. Everytime I turn on the screen I get the lock screen and the home screen together???
[Captivate Android Development] chavocarlos:
This issue I have one time, i solved this with the Holy Reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
I even try to reboot the phone and still I'm getting it.
[Captivate Android Development] bballer182:
I tried finding the beginning of the M9 topic but i gave up and couldn't find the answer to my problem. I'm stuck on glass lock with no way of changing it that I can find. Is there a way to change the lock screens. I see EDT tweaks wasn't packaged this time and that's been the way to change. So what do I do?
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
This build is for stability. That is the only lock screen. add ons will come later
[Captivate Android Development] 4n6science:
Try MIUI lockscreen app (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1393267) or widgetlocker if you want multiple lockscreens.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Try using an app like watch dog to check for a runway app.

Set a lockscreen wallpaper in.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Yeah...recalibrating battery stats does nothing for battery life.

Check out this article from a Google engineer on the subject

And yup, setting a lock screen wallpaper should take care of that showing through issue thingy.
[Captivate Android Development] Pick_A_Name:
Try BetterBatteryStats app. It's on xda and the market. It'll help you narrow down your battery life issues.
[Captivate Android Development] 4n6science:
I've used TiBu to freeze some apps, I have betterbatterystats and changing some of the semaphore kernel settings I've seen improved battery life compared to M8. I'm glad M9 is basic and just plain works. My phone isn't slow, no sleep deaths, no random reboots. All is well for my Captivate and I can use this stable ROM for sometime to come.

Thank you Studa and The Collective.
[Captivate Android Development] bballer182:
Ah. Ok. Thanks just wondering if I missed something.
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
Isn't the watch dog app for data usage? I'll try to change the lockscreen wallpaper and see if it fixed it.

Edit: It looks like changing the lockscreen wallpaper fixed the problem with the homescreen and lockscreen being together.
[Captivate Android Development] Rooster*:
That would be 3G Watchdog. I use that on the kids phone, works pretty good so far. I think what mrhaley was referring to is Watchdog Task Manager Here
[Captivate Android Development] Nick0703:
Oh now it makes sence. Because I was going to say like how the heck is 3G watchdog going to tell me which app is using more CPU etc...

My wife's Cappy doesn't get much use on the weekend, but she's loving the battery life. Thanks studacris!

Well I was going to upload a pic, but it didn't work. I'll upload it once I get my pc fixed up. It's sitting at 70% after like 28hrs.
[Captivate Android Development] dang3r1917:
Having a bit if an odd problem. Occasionally during a phone call the phone will randomly reboot itself. It has happened a couple of times on M9 and a couple of times on M8. Usually not a huge deal because I just call them back, but I should be getting calls about job offers soon and hanging up on a recruiter seems like a bad idea... Any suggestions on the culprit?
[Captivate Android Development] pickupman66:
HAHA! Just realized the Tennessee Location!

Loving M9. I have installed it on both my cappy and my Wife's cappy. Its funny, both have the same install. M9, montage, KG4 modem, but hers acts differently sometimes. Mine gets better reception in the house. Hers SUCKS. go figure.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Every modem and kernel act different on every phone. Some better than other and like you're experiencing, even when they're side to side with the exact same software. Only thing you can do is try different modems on her phone (gotta wait for it to settle down before trying a new one). Although, the phone acting differently could be resolve with a simple clear cache/dalvik.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
hmm no reboots here, its only when on phone calls huh?

umm do you have an app the chews up ram? maybe trying a "bigmem" version of semaphore might help, or perhaps another modem. though those are just guesses, try those and report back please.
[Captivate Android Development] davep13:
Just flashed M9 over M8 last night, and it has been running very smooth. I have two non-ROM related problems: messaging app is still force closing on me and I am unable to obtain a logcat of this problem with any logcat app. Any tips on fixing these problems?
[Captivate Android Development] stinkynoon:
Don't you have to enable logging in the Semaphore app? Or is that something else?
[Captivate Android Development] davep13:
Thank you for pointing that out! aLogcat is now showing the logs. Now I just have to find out how to use the logs to try and find the root of my messaging FC problem.
[Captivate Android Development] dang3r1917:
I would use the bigmem but I do a good bit of video recording the little daughter. I'll try another modem here in a bit. I have semaphore set to 'chainfire' for lmk. That was what stopped my SODs on M8. I'll switch back to normal to see if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Has anyone asked why they can't change the lockscreen today?
[Captivate Android Development] jaquez4:
Well team of The Collective, I am sad to say that I will be leaving this side of the forum as I have just upgraded my phone today to the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket. My Captivate will however stay in the family as my brother-in-law is getting the phone and loves your work. I will however be popping in from time to time to check for updates to keep him with the most recent Mosaic. Just wanted to say that I truly loved yall's work and the team was a deciding factor in my next choice of phone. :)

Quick Thumbs Up Status...

Just popping in to say I am having good experience with this rom since I installed just a few days ago.

Also, since I implemented the app that allows me to selectively select networks to have static IP, and using static IP addresses here at home, my disconnects have stopped.

I have had a few times where I have about used up all mly memory, only in the 30s left, and it gets quite slow then. But I just close all and am good to go. I think that was most likely due to my playing with so much because of the new ROM installed.

I"m going to go another week or two, and if all is still good, I'm going to upgrade my wife to this one. (I have read about other GB roms ultimately getting out of sorts, given a little time. Want to be sure that doesn't happen on this before putting it on her phone).

Thanks for the great ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Lol, popped in to post some battery life with Mosaic 8.5 and Mosaic 9 is out! Downloading now. Screen capture of Mosaic 8.5 with Semaphore 2.4.0c Over-clocked @ 1200 MHz and undervolted -75, -75, -75, -100, -100 mV; 1200 MHz to 100 MHz respectively. Thunderbolts script installed too using Launcher Pro Plus. Light use on the weekend but still pretty good for a phone and battery thats over a year and a half old. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
Pretty impressive battery stats. I decided to give ICS a shot, but I'm getting 24% drain on Android System and 11% on Android OS. It's like paying taxes to a ROM...lol....Guess who's coming back to Mosaic.
[Captivate Android Development] meyesme:
Hey folks...

Just flashed v9 from v8.5 and noticed that my baseband still says JK4...do I need to manually update this to JVZ or should this have done so upon flashing? Thanks much in advance, and this is really stable so far!
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Baseband is the modem. Which should be jk4, which we've always used as the standard modem. If it ain't broke don't fix it :)

Perfect! It's been a while and I've been out of the loop...thank you!

Why the heck do the graph goes up and down?:confused: Should it be only going down when using it? Because it looks like you charged your phone...
[Captivate Android Development] pyroman27:
Just wanted to say this is the best GB ROM I've seen. I wanted to upgrade from firefly 3.0 (which was great). I tried a few with nothing but problems including stock KK4. I thought I was going to have to go back to FF3.0. This rom is fat and stable. Finally something worth switching to. I just need a few more choices of lockscreens to be 100% happy, but thats a small tradeoff. Thanks devs.

Has anyone reported Sleep of Death (SoD) issues with Mosaic IX? I ran 8, and was happy with it, but continued to get SoD issues, even with 3 different kernels.

If not, I think I'll go back to it. I love running Apex, but keep it keeps freezing on me.

Hotspot problem

I doubt that this is a ROM problem, but I attempted to hook to a WIFI hot spot today. It connected and got an IP address, but when open browser, it would not bring up the (frustrating) approval page, and hence, wouldn't allow access to the internet.

Another person there broght theirs up, and it hooked up fine.

Any suggestions?

---------- Post added at 04:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:35 PM ----------

I notice that in the Build.prop, this setting is there:

wifi.supplicant_scan_interval 180

But my wifi is scanning every 5 seconds or so, even when hooked to a network.

Shouldn't it be scanning every 180 seconds? Would that make any difference on battery use?

So I want to completely wipe my phone back to GB stock, which I did but I noticed that Odin didn't delete any of my data, which I wanted it to do. Is there anything I can do to completely wipe my phone fresh?

The 1-click Odin for Froyo had a 'master clear' button on it. That is what I'm trying to do on this wipe
[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
On your internal sd? Settings/ storage and sd cards. Format the internal sd. Well wipe it squeaky clean. I would recommend removing an external sd before formatting, just do you don't accidentally wipe the wrong one. And it was the 1 click for 2.1 jf6 rom that had the master clear (by Designgears).
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Boot into recovery, wipe data/factory reset

Then go to mounts and storage and format sdcard, that will get rid of Amy trace of user info.

Make sure that anything on your sdcard you wanna keep is backed up.
[Captivate Android Development] chavocarlos:
A question,

Semaphore latest version has CWM 5, before install it ... can I install ROMS with CWM 3 version? Like all Mosaic's versions???

And if Mosaic 9 isn't JVU based, has sense to upgrade to 2.5.0c version of semaphore? Because this include fixes for JVU features. Maybe it has to be post in Semaphore Captivate version! :P

I am weird!
[Captivate Android Development] Cruton502:
Thanks stud! You're a stud!
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Should work, still uses the same scripting.

I'm running the latest right now. Smooth as always...and there are a few extra mb of ram in this version without sacrificing anything as far as hd video recording.

but yes you're second statement is entirely accurate :)
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
I think he meant your a stood
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
UHMM, Yeah..... OK, I faked an "about phone" battery graph and what the hell, I'll just leave all signs of it on there. No, its, not faked. The graph is showing the full week + of use, since my last reboot if you tap on that graph it zooms in and gives you your last time on battery. Look at the last section, that was the beginning of the weekend at the high point and Monday morning at the low point, the rest of the Histogram graph is for the prior week+. The graph doesn't just show you one discharge cycle, it's the battery, signal level, wifi, gps, etc. for your entire up time. The longer you go with out rebooting the more varied that chart gets. Here's screenshots after rebooting:

Notice the 52s on battery, but it's plugged in to usb? That's because it shows your last time on battery before recharging. So no, I did not charge it during the reported 2 days. Still doubt it? Try it. :D
[Captivate Android Development] stevebic83:
I don't think anyone was trying to say you faked it, just pointing out the fact that in reality the phone didn't last 2 days and whatever on just one charge. You are correct that the chart doesn't reset each time you charge, but you are incorrect that it only resets when you reboot, it also resets when you give it a full charge (100%). I don't believe that chart represents more than 3 maybe 4 days though, as that would mean you only bump charged it 5 times and 1 good charge within those 3 - 4 days, which would really be amazing yet highly unlikely, or the phone was hardly used, in which case isn't anything to really be proud of as we like to use our phones.

That said I think the battery life is pretty decent on this rom I get about 6 to 7 hours on one full charge with pretty moderate use, which honestly is about the same as most other Roms, it is noticeable enough though, maybe an hour difference between Froyo/GB and ICS Roms.
[Captivate Android Development] greedynoob:
is there anyway to get back the scrollable choices in the pull down menu? or am i just being silly and missing it?
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
If you mean the 9 option statusbar, it's been pulled from M9 for stability reasons.

If it's something you really want/need, I'm sure there's a way to do it, but it would require some coding on your part.

Or you could flash back to Mosaic 8... or... something.
[Captivate Android Development] stevebic83:
You missed it, LOL! :D This is a bare bones build for stability and performance, which it really is stable and smooth. Mod's will come in time, like the scrollable toggles your talking about.

SInce about a week after loading 9, my phone has been really slow. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] Pick_A_Name:
Are little more info would be helpful.
[Captivate Android Development] gokartracer5:
Maybe it's just internet enabled applications. But, many times I will launch an app and the phone will freeze until it asks me to FC or wait. If I say wait, the app will continue as normal right away. FaceBook, MapMyRun, etc. Sometimes it just runs better on packet data rather than wifi, which is the opposite of normal. Sometimes I will get a call but it takes longer than normal for the phone to come out of sleep so I can answer, but that could be some other app taking CPU. Sometime just going back and forth between the app drawer and the home screens has big lag. I am running with EXT4 partitions.

At least there are no SODs anymore. No wait, just had one.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Convert back to rfs? Ext4 "lagfix" hasn't been all that effective on gingerbread, and in my personal experiences made things worse. But that was months ago that i even tried it.
