Did I brick my phone? My phone won't turn on in any mode

Here is what i did:

-went to stock 2.2

-using odin, per instructions in OP, flashed stock 2.3

-than tried to flash the reorient kernel 1.1, but it never finished, even after 5 minutes. I unplugged the phone and tried to put in DL mode, but now the phone wont even turn on, please help
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Try again. Use the key combo to go to Download mode. Which stock 2.2 did you try?
[Captivate Android Development] regan0314:
So no need to disable lagfix or anything?
[Captivate Android Development] erikbacon:
I have tried every button combo, when i hold up and power a weird screen i have never seen before comes up talking about PWC status.

I used the ucjf6 one click
[Captivate Android Development] soblecram:
have you tried a jig?
[Captivate Android Development] mrsubway:
Got the stock GB installed, and happy right now. but, is there a way to enable the home button again?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Go to the next step in the instructions...install a re oriented kernel.

If you haven't noticed yet if you don't do that the screen orientation well be 90° off.

What a Great ROM !

Just installed MVI yesterday , I was using Phoenix Rising 3.0 that was rock solid...but decided it was time to move on.

No Battery, button or any other problems... I might try a different modem though.

The OP was second to Nun :D

Thanks, the link is not working...I'll poke around the forum.

I'll let you know if it works for me :)

[Captivate Android Development] spagman72:
Well, flashed kg3.. its similar...maybe a little better , I'll keep it for now

Thanks again!

Sorry, I am not sure why it didn't work, but glad you found it!
[Captivate Android Development] spagman72:
Ok, Can anybody helo me out with this one?

I clicked on the MosaicOTA app, and it informed me that a newer version was available for download so I clicked and downloaded the new .apk

I used root explorer to go to the folder where it downloaded and chose "install"

I read all the permisions...etc and seemed like a regular app install... but then it told me the " Application not installed " with a checkmark at the begining.

I went to see if third party/non market app permissions were set , also switched back and forth.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] djbrian52:
You actually need to move the file to /system/app folder with root explorer. Be sure to mount r/w before trying to paste. If I've helped, please say thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] jaquez4:
If I were to flash kg3 and didnt like it. What exactly would I do to go back? Would restoring a backup created before I flashed the file revert it?
[Captivate Android Development] kb9nvh:
Seems like its been a month since I flashed a new ROM. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] metlmangreg:
I am not sure about the revert, but you can go to the modem thread (I won't try another link since I did the last one wrong) and flash another one or even the stock one through cwm.
[Captivate Android Development] spagman72:
Thanks! I should have thought of that .

Be sure to download jk4 to flash back of you need it.

You could always flash KH3 Stock ;P
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
Or you could play the "My Country" game until it hot reboots your phone, causing you to get stuck at the boot animation, forcing you to have to do a wipe of apps/cache (which does nothing), reinstalling Mosaic, wiping and installing other roms, ultimately ending up caught in a vicious bootloop (that you can't get out of with button combos), having to fight with ODIN to get it to recognize your phone, flashing back to stock Gingerbread, reinstalling mosaic and all your roms, and doing a master clear just to make sure the issue doesn't come back.

That would be something like a new flash.

It's probably fine if you don't time shift it like I was doing - I'm going to say it's probably 99.99% my fault that all that happened.

Anyway, how about those Mosaics?

It has probably been mentioned. But if you want a lot longer battery life. Turn off the maps location updating and latitude. My son mentioned it last night after the wedding rehearsal. So I did, I forgot to plug my phone in last night and woke up to see this. Thinking it would be completely dead. Instead it still had 37% and almost 18 hours of being on!

[Captivate Android Development] Seanbest:
Where exactly do you do this?
[Captivate Android Development] Wally72:
Thx!!!

Thx for the tip! OTA is working fine and my phone is looking "WAY" different with Prestige theme!;)
[Captivate Android Development] Wally72:
Haha, I cheated! Took the stock browser of another JVQ ROM and installed it in Mosiac VI. I'm not gonna lie...since i did that, i've downloaded songs, apps, etc. and no fc's!!! Used the browser for a couple of hours and works fine. No lag, no fc, and fast. I did it that way because I don't like Dolphin, Firefox, etc. I figured...it's JVQ so got to work...and YESSS, it worked!
[Captivate Android Development] J-Wall:
How can I turn off the maps location updating and latitude?
[Captivate Android Development] Wally72:
Question?

I'm having a new issue. My issue is that when i charge my phone (over night), and disconnect the charger, after a while of not using my phone when i'm gonna do something like open an app or text, or make a phone call, my phone is off:confused: I turn it on, use it for a bit but when i'm done using it, after a while...same thing! I go to use it and it's off. After doing that mayb twice or 3 times, then stays on like it's suppose to. That never happend to me before. When I think about it, i downloaded an app called GO Weather from the market. You can use the default live theme or download the HD version. I DL the new HD version and since that point on, I've been having this issue. Half hour ago, i uninstalled the HD live theme, so my phone is charging again (full) so i can see if that was the cause. Should i re-flash, change kernel or what? Pls advice!:o
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
the browser works thats not the issue... hit menu and try to view open windows it'll reboot the phone ... that is a jvq issue
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Yeah this what I meant when I said I hope it worked in VII. I need that feature.
[Captivate Android Development] Wally72:
Yep...did that and you're right studacris! But when i flashed VI, my browser was fc. That's why i did what i did and now works fine. I was not clear on that part! Sorry! For those that have the same problem as i did with the browser fc...what i did is a good alternative!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
Just wanted to mention that there is another Dolphin browser...Dolphin Mini. It is far better than Dolphin HD in my opinion. I can see why people can be disappointed with Dolphin HD. I found it to be slow.

it is :)

I'm still on rfs, just curious if anyone thinks it's worth it and maybe I'll convert to ext4...
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
I'm testing it out now. On rfs.
[Captivate Android Development] Madtowndave:
Cool! The OP for that thread also has a thread in i9000 forums indicating he'd have this tweak soon optimized for rfs.
[Captivate Android Development] keller.jeff:
Seems ok on ext 4. I changed back to ext a while back and after r converting it seemed speed up shot for me.

Some have reported charging issues with this tweak. Just keep an eye on the thread. I guess I see a bit of improvement, haven't benched anything though.

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I'd just like to note that there are tweaks in there for EXT4 (basically turning off journaling or whatever it's called) or so existz said which is probably why it's "optimized" for EXT4. Everything else as far as I know should work with RFS however most of the tweaks in the 06tweaks file and some in the S98edt_tweaks file aren't recommended for use with the latest Talon as they mess with VM settings that Talon is already setting (can modify the ram.conf file in the system/etc folder if you want to tweak those settings).

Go into Maps select all the settings under more, that do not update location automatically. Then sign out of latitude.

move apps to sd

Is anyone else having problems with moving apps to sd. I was having not enough space errors when trying to install from android market. I cleared market data and things started working, for awhile. I tried clearing data again, no go. So then I tried clearing cache and dalvic in recovery, still didn't work. That's when I tried to move some apps to SD and found that I couldn't. I know the Market has occasional problems but I didn't expect the apps to sd problem.:confused:

try getting yourself the app 2 SD app from the market, may help you move them.

No probs on rfs with the tweaks, either. Nice improvement.
[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
Alright, a newbish question that I should probably already know the answer to.

If I were to try out a I897 built ROM, Fusion, another TeamPhoenix production, and I backed up Mosaic with CWM, does that store the bootloaders or would I have to reflash the I9000 bootloaders first and then do the ROM restore through CWM? Thanks much, love Mosaic, just wanted to see what Fusion had, especially since there was a recent update.
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
Unless I'm completely off base, a CWM backup doesn't backup your bootloaders.

That being said, your CWM backup will only restore properly to the same installation setup you have now. If you want to restore apps to Fusion, you'll need to use Titanium Backup.
[Captivate Android Development] Wdustin1:
No cwm does not store any bootloaders, I don't know your reason for wanting i9000 bootloaders i have the captivate bootloaders and I have ran all the i9000 roms with no issue whatsoever, so why not flash the captivate bootloaders and never have to flash them again, just a suggestion the less bootloaders flashing the better

You could try a nand backup thru CWM.

I had the same problem that started happening after getting my phone and having it for a month. After doing extensive research it turned out it was a bad batch of phones from samsung. Got a new phone with a different batch number printed on the lable under the battery and have not had a single issue for the last 6 months or so. If your phone is still under warranty, I would suggest getting a new one. You will have to flash back to stock OS (if it still does the same power off thing then you know it is your phone) and you can exchange it for a new one.
[Captivate Android Development] metlmangreg:
My phone was shutting off stock and custom, so I took it back after taking it back to stock with no problems from at&t. It's been a while back, but I think the build number was 1007.

Talon or Xcal

I haven't had luck searching for any discussions on this so pardon my ignorance if it has already been mentioned. When I used FireFly, I stayed on Speedmod kernel rather than Onix because I found that Speedmod gave me better battery life. Is the relationship between Xcal and Talon kernels similar to Speedmod and Onix?

I'm wondering if xcal will provide better battery life while Talon provides better performance at the expense of battery life.

Someone please provide their input and experience please. Thank you in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
I saw this fix in the gingerstyle 2.3.3 rom:

"-reconfigure safe mode/ no more random shutdown"

Has this or a similar fix been applied to Mosaic? I have had a couple of random shutdowns since installing Mosaic a couple of days ago. Anyone else seeing this at all?
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
Here is my opinion. I am using Talon simply because there hasn't been much development from Xcal lately. I would assume Talon is more up to date, but you know what happens when you assume. :p

Cosmic Lite

Ok, here's a very lite port of the Cosmic theme. Essentially, you get the menu icons (though I kept my blue background) and the status bar icons including battery. This does not include the notification icons... or any of the other mods. (yet)

Flash the following : CosmicLite

Joe
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Here comes..

I have used both and they gave me the same kind of battery life. It would be wrong to compare them to speedmod and Onix has, like you said, one was built for stability and the other for perfomance.

In this case, Both are trying their best to be performant and stable. Although, Talon (IMO) has reach farther and is very stable with OC/UV + enables ext4 which brings your phone to a whole other level.

Both kernel are great, don't get me wrong. But Talon will bring up more performance outta your cappy w/o losing your awesome battery life and phone stability.

Feedback and suggestions

Hi folks, loving Mosiac. you guys are doing a heck of a job. Although I'm sure after the initial release everything got a but overwhelming, I know you all are still hard at work and testing new features. Just thought I'd give a couple of suggestions:

First, could some one post a working google car home apk for those who don't have it and use the car dock? I'm having a heck of a time getting my hands on it. I made the noob mistake of not copying TiBu to external SD before doing a MC a couple weeks ago.

Second, could some one update the second post where Nun has started posting known bugs/issues? It would stop a lot of redundant posting and I for one have gone through all the posts to see if others are experiencing the same issues. Since I found all of them (I think) already posted, I'll leave them out.

Third, could some one post which line(s) does one modify in the build.prop so that Samsung Apps picks up your device as a i-897 and we can get Captivate specific downloads?

Fourth, THANKS FOR SUCH A GREAT RELEASE!!!!

P.S. Hole cow, X, nice updated graphic added to the screenshots!

Thanks for your help and keep up the good work.
