I'm also having trouble receiving some texts. It seems to be a recent problem but I've been on this install of Mosaic VIII for several weeks now. No problems with sleep though.

I actually came here to find out about the text issue. I wasn't sure if it was a hardware, software, or at&t problem.
[Captivate Android Development] NunHugger:
Try this...

http://bit.ly/ulNz4k

Lets call it 8.5. Sporting the Semiphore kernel and a few fixes to the lock mod. Not sure it will help. But worth a shot. Full wipe and flash.

[Captivate Android Development] NunHugger:
Oh...and of you ever made it to out old irc, we are trying a new line of group chat. Its called Palringo. Its has voice chat, image uploading, and a pc client. If you wanna give it a shot, get it on the market and then join our room... theandroidcollective

Hope some of you can come join us for some fun chatter.

[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
I already have semiphore with no sod, so will this do anything for me?

Thanks Mr.Hugger

P.S if you could name the new one 8.5 or something I could tell it apart from the original 8.0
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
The file is named Mosaic8.5.zip so it's easy to tell them apart.
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
Im downloading it now and it says mosaic 8.zip
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
Hmmm strange I am downloading it now as well and mine says Mosaic8.5.zip. Dunno about that then.
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
If you can see the bottom of the browser you can see mine.
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
O well I hate to mess with it anyhow

Because im getting great battery and no sod.i guess I'll wait and see whats in the update first.Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] dpaik:
after hitting the link for 8.5....i'm downloading it and it says mosaic8.5...not sure if i wanna wipe and flash again...what changes does this have to the lockscreen? and is the drop down menu smoothed out?
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
Yeah, I installed all of the previous updates and ended going back to the original M8 with Semaphore and have had Zero problems at all.
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
I'm using the semiphore 9.1c big memmory and that seemed to fix the sod
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
I am also using Thunderbolt Scripts and it really helps out in smoothness, speed and battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
I'm hoping thunderbolt is in 8.5

I'd be more enthused about a wipe and reloading all my stuff
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
They don't seem to be, I opened the zip file and looked in the init.d folder and they are the same as the ones in the original Mosaic 8 folder.

But you can download Thunderbolt and the add on's from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1296927
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
So you guys finally have development under your own control... don't have to try and bend to the whims and arbitrary dates set by some know-nothing project manager... and you go and set release expectations anyway. *sigh* :)

The proper answer was "Yes, we'll be having a release every Monday, though Tuesdays or Wednesdays are also quite possible along with Thursdays and Fridays. On occasion it's also quite likely that there will be a release on a Saturday or Sunday too." ;)

anyone here use gb keyboard from the market by steven lin?

I'm having issues with it where every other press the phone thinks i'm long pressing the second key. So when i type pretty much half the letters dont show up lol.

This only happens when i type fast, wondering if anyone else experiencing the same thing.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Before someone else quote this. It has been answered on IRC.

GB Keyboard doesn't work! I added it in the Mosaic Q&A FAQ :)
[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
I wish I could say the same. My battery life has been pretty poor compared to other Phoenix Roms. Unplug in the morning and home 12-14 hours later, the battery is <20%. I used to be able to go a good 36 hours on the 2.2 Phoenix ROMS, however, this one is super quick.

I've had a couple of freezes, no overclocking of talon, but that hasn't bothered me too much.
[Captivate Android Development] rapsucks10:
Im using GB Keyboard from the market without any issue!
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
I don't remember who said to try out the zeam launcher, but thank you. I'm digging it, goes great with mosaic.
[Captivate Android Development] bnevets27:
Sorry if it has been asked before, and I know its still early. Is there going to be an app for Mosaic, like there was for firefly?
[Captivate Android Development] aalh:
Any day of the week

as long as it's every week

feed me seymore:p
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
It is possible
[Captivate Android Development] jamezz23:
I've noticed the battery life being a little worse than firefly, but that could also be because I'm using it allot more than I was. I'm using the extended battery and I'm at 20% and its been going for like 18 hours so I can't complain with moderate to heavy use. I'm also on talon kernel not overclocked and that might not get as good battery life as xcal.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
You seem to be understanding how the battery consumption works. The more you use, the less it will last. 18 hours on an extended battery isn't too bad from the sounds of what you have running though.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
It sems like you need to reset your battery stats. If already done, check in your OS Monitor and see what's draining.

also, check in your running services to see if google map is there.
[Captivate Android Development] Boobie Watcher:
my battery life is awesome......i charge it when i go to sleep at night and when i wake up i unplug it and it stays at 100% for like 10 mins or so.....been using it all day long listening to music at work and im at 57% right now......not too shabby
[Captivate Android Development] jamezz23:
I reset my battery stats and there is no google maps running in the back round. I looked at the stats and I can't remember specifics but of course display was the highest and everything else was under 6% so I think that's normal. I'd imagine the battery life is gonna get better because that was the first full charge put through the extended battery and batteries are weird sometimes.
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
I took the plunge and flashed this morning. Running great so far. Thanks for all of the tips and tricks in the thread and to Team Phoenix for a great release.

My only issues are the SMS showing up in the call log and the ascending ringtone right now. I'm hoping BLN can be put into the kernel soon so I can get that back for notifications as well.

Overall, great first release. Looking forward to the updates!
[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
I think SMS in the call logs is a GB thing. I thought it was a little weird also but guess I'll just deal with it. Everything else is going great.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
No it's not a gb thing, if you've ever run stock anything it's there. Most custom roms have a modded logprovider.apk to prevent that. this one hasn't been modified yet is all.

Will themes work on top of 8.5?

Sent from someone else's phone
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
+1 I've been loving thunderbolt!

On a strange side note.....

I was unable to push Swype with the normal tricks, but it did work to just install it with the system's installer (the one that pops up with short press)

Which was odd to me.... But even more strange is that at reboot, it did the constant fc thing until I reinstalled. (without uninstalling, just in between fc pop up)

Been too busy to f#&@*	with it. Just thought I'd mention it as it seemed rather bizarre..

Phoned in.....
[Captivate Android Development] NunHugger:
I don't even know its any themes have been made for this setup. I think Chiki made one.

I am almost certain that this will be the final Mosaic set up. Still trying to tweak and solve some issues, but its running great for me and with a new year around the corner, I Erroll more than likely be moving on. Hopefully 8.5 will be released as 9 and that will be the last we worry about themes.

Oh, and a big thanks to Dagr8 for the mods, I will properly credit in the OP this evening. Make sure you to tap a thanks or two.

for the life of me i can't seem to get angry gps to restore in tibu and i can't find it anywhere.. been having some odd issues lately with the phone (gps/maps fc's, tibu fc's, fun stuff/lag in general) so I figured I'd do a tibu and put on 8.5 but even tibu fc's on me now. Thought I may as well get angry gps installed first before i do a backup but can't find it.

ideas?

it's a shame everyone is moving on :(. Ah well at least I'll have my wife's sgs2 to play with after xmas.
[Captivate Android Development] pickupman66:
NUN, you and the team have done a great job on this ROM. while I had a few bugs here and there, it has worked wonderfully for me none the less. I can only hope that the collective moves on to ICS and can quickly get a product of this caliber with ICS. from the looks of it, they are getting closer.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Are you speaking of the Swype beta? That is supposed to be installed in /data/app with the user apps. Which is cool cause you can batch restore worth tibu. And once I install it i always reboot before enabling it in the settings that seems to eliminate that force close issue

We don't do aosp (on the captivate anyway) if the I9000 gets updated i perhaps might tinker around with it.
[Captivate Android Development] Devo7v:
Is it possible to use the camera included with M7? I'm not a fan of the camera that comes with M8 and hoping I can just replace it with the old one. And if so, is there a flashable zip?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
you're welcome ;)
[Captivate Android Development] mrsubway:
So to do the 8.5 upgrade, you have to wipe dalvik and all user data first, am I correct?
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
It's always best to do so, yes. Wipe Dalvik, Cache Partition and Factory Reset. Make sure to backup with TIBU first though.
[Captivate Android Development] chavocarlos:
I don't wipe cache partition, I am running 8.5 now, Should I do it? I notice that all animations are gone, screen off animation, transitions between screens, etc, Is it normal?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
settings> display> animation turn it to all instead of no ;)
[Captivate Android Development] DarkisFever:
Much thanks to all of The Collective for everything related to Mosaic. I still remember getting into the modding community. My first project was unlocking my Captivate using Herloz's unlock method. Then discovering Firefly, which I loved dearly (Thank you so much Xtremekilla). Finally I moved onto Mosaic and have never regreated it. I'll give 8.5 a run sometime this week and report any types of bugs I find. Again thanks for everything everyone. I'll be sad when I move onto a Galaxy Nexus next summer.
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
I make it a standard practice (I thinks it's best to do so) to wipe Dalvik, Cache Partition and Factory Reset when flashing a Rom just to be sure there is nothing left over from the one before. Also, I wipe Dalvik and Cache Partition when flashing Kernels too. I also use the attached file that I flash before I flash a Kernel. It cleans everything out from the prior one so you start fresh with the new one.
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Ummmm.... Only the best one ever...the Emily theme! :)
[Captivate Android Development] Devo7v:
You're awesome. The old camera allows you to use the power button to take a picture.
[Captivate Android Development] Bogie1:
Ditto Joe!! hope all is well with you. :)
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
I see, well that explains why it works thru the system's installer....

Is this new to this beta? It always went in system /app before... I used GOW Swype , then Paul Diddy's there.. (among many others)

Thanks for the scoop anyway, you're full of answers.... ;)

Btw does anyone know if the ICS clock can be used with other ROMs?

Yea you can use the ICS clock mortem used it in the Aeris theme..

This had happened to me with mms.apk a few times... I've had a few quirks like that lately.... Like soft reboot...

Btw , thanks for the Swype link!

It's not ThunderBolt. I get this problem with and without ThunderBolt. I can't determine whether it is a ROM problem or hardware problem, as a couple people have this problem as well but not much.

the one that comes with 8.5 that Nun linked to comes with the cbm version of Semaphore....big mem b/c ram limit is 352 and not 341....720p recording is broken...flashed the non-bigmem and video 720p recording now works....also...i get a force close anytime i use my headphones with a call...during call is fine but after when i try to end it the phone apk freezes for a sec and FC's...all updates need to become consolidated to one file...still not sure what needs to be updated or if an update file broke something that was working before...do i still need to add the update in the OP about the VM heap size change and whatnot?

Geo i have not had any of that happening for me. On 8.5 with big mem semaphore kernel and thunderbolt scripts. Actually it has done the opposite and those things open a lot faster and don't close on their own

You can get themes and/or the OTA from the web version http://x.co/MosaicOTA under Other at the bottom of the list.

Keep in mind, none of the themes (to my knowledge) have any of the updates/fixes that are in the 8.5 update that Nun released.

Is there anything I could check?

EDIT: Mosaic 8 w/o the Mods and Semaphore 1.9.0cbm would last a few days before requiring a reboot. But would get the occasional SoD.

Guys I never thought I would have to ask this but I really need help. I decided to redo my phone back to stock 2.1 then back to gingerbread and reinstall mosaic. I used Odin 1-Click and made it to Stock 2.1 fine. However I then had to use adb to get into download mode, it did successfully. Then I went into odin, placed all the files correctly, started the flash. The screen went black. It then never proceeded anywhere. After giving it some time nothing happened. I removed and it came up with the phone-Triangle-computer sign. I was like this is good I can reconnect to Odin and re-flash. Well now ADB and the PC will not recognize the phone itself 0.0. I am really in a bind here. If any of you can offer advice I'd really appreciate it. Thanks guys....
