So, I have reflashed but did not flash stock GB first, just factory reset and wiped the two caches. Restored only user apps with data.

I have left the kernel alone. Stability is better, but I still get hot reboots and lockups perhaps once a day. Yesterday it was while Market was updating apps, and today it seems while playing music in PowerAMP I got a phone call and it caused a lock up. Screen came on but it was then unreposnsive. This same issue about a phone call causing a lockup/hot reboot happened before I reflahsed also a couple of times.

Next step would be?
[Captivate Android Development] demoicurn:
I have had an issue with an unexplained battery drain for awhile. For some reason, I have had a 6+7%/hr battery drain. I have flashed M7 from M6. With that was a different kernel. Flashed different modems. No change. Ran an app called os monitor and nothing obvious was the offender. Android system was my main cpu user, but I assume that would be normal since it was only 10-15%. I'm wondering if its the battery? Only had the phone since 1/11. Hmmm....... otherwise, I love M7. Good work devs ... looking at what different avenue I can look to find my answer. Thanx

Every day is a learning experience

Well I finally bricked my phone by mixing and matching too much, so I learned how to go back to stock and get it going again. Every day we learn....

Still deciding as to put MV6 or MV7 on...

Tried Apex and Darkys and did not care for them at all...I have been spoiled by Mosaic.

Would suggest to the Devs that JVR is a dog...just saw that JVT is out, hopefully that is what is coming next...

I will still be here

Have you tried reflashing? I've had my battery since 7/10 and it still lasts all day.

[Captivate Android Development] demoicurn:
Twice. I didn't factory reset. Just cleared caches and flashed. Confusing. Tried charging to 100% and clearing bat stats too. Phone runs smooth, but just not as long as it used to. Im used to a 1-2% drain while at rest.
[Captivate Android Development] keller.jeff:
That's where out should be... What are you resorting after you flash?

[Captivate Android Development] xAndrew225x:
I'm currently on the latest CM7 nightly, what all will i have to do to flash this rom? Sounds pretty noob probably but i'd rather not brick my phone for like the 300th time haha
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
Go to the beginning of this thread
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Read the second post. There's a step by step guide there for flashing this ROM from anything.
[Captivate Android Development] demoicurn:
Confused. Not sure what your post means. Sorry
[Captivate Android Development] keller.jeff:
That's where IT should be (battery drain)...

Anyways. after you flashed the rom, did you restore anything apps/data?
[Captivate Android Development] Bigdog1:
Montage VI or VII

Hi All, I have not jump ship, my cappy is doing fine on MVI, I have just been reading alot while I waited for ATT SGS2, got it on 10/2 as it was released. It is already rooted and everything from the cappy transferred. So far so good. I know I must wait for the gods of the collective to use their creative powers and "let there be light" in the form of a ROM for this bad boy. In the mean time I just want to find out if I can get by for now using montage VI or VII on my SGS2 or is this tied to the framework of the capppy ROM? You there Joe Dev?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Themes from different firmwares on the same phone rarely work, being a completely different device I can guarantee it Will not work.

But if you're rooted and deodexed you can add the images to the framework and systemui although they probably need resized because the sgs2 has a larger screen...
[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
WOOT WOOT U of I. Go ILLINI!!!
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
I concur with this well-rationalized, and deeply considered point.

[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
Now if you planned it properly, you should have just posted the I-L-L and waited for my response with the I-N-I.

Good point. One more try.

[Captivate Android Development] demoicurn:
Only dl'ed screen filter and xda from the market. Otherwise, all M7. I was getting 1-2% with M6. Battery drain occurred before flashing M7.(reason I flashed M7)
[Captivate Android Development] Bigdog1:
Thanks for quick reply. not going for theme but for cool animations and stuff found in montage VI from Joe Dev
[Captivate Android Development] JoeDV:
Yeah, as said previously, can't use the cappy stuff directly, but should be able to take the framework and other files from the S2 and replace the images. Just need to be conscious of any name or location changes.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Not to mention he'll have to make sure the corresponding xml file supports the number of images for the animated ones if I'm not mistaken.
[Captivate Android Development] TheSoaresan:
For all who use talonDev, there's an update, check it oot
[Captivate Android Development] keller.jeff:
Very odd. I can't help you much then. Have you tried any other kernels? Are the results the same? Try dc4.0?

Sent from my SGH-I9000
[Captivate Android Development] demoicurn:
I just factory reset, cleared caches, and reflashed M7. Will know if my battery issue is resolved later. Thanx for your help. I'll try a new kernel if my problems persists.
[Captivate Android Development] DarkisFever:
Thank you for this! I just switched to TalonDev today and am finding it amazing! The update Memory Tweaks is perfect now that I can clear the cache so easily. Now I just need to understand the basics of putting the MV boot animation into the talon kernal ^^
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
its easy change the name of the boot animation to sanim.zip
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
Yikes seems faster and smoother
[Captivate Android Development] Verfassergeist:
So...do we have an ETA until 8 comes out? Or have we reached terminal velocity, and we're just polishing now, or better yet, "We'll get there when we get there!" *cue the Old Man's voice*
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
If he chooses to go with the new JVT, it may be a minute before we get an update.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
Sadly that happens. Everytime we had a master piece ready for release, there's a new build that came out. We have no control on it but we do expect it now lol.

Everything is based off a build so we can't just tranfer our work everytime a new one comes out. Gotta start all over again :/
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
i'd say at least an hour...

[edit: please note the sarcasm and don't go f5 crazy everyone, cause i get the feeling someone will, lol]
[Captivate Android Development] gokartracer5:
nice F5 animation. maybe that should be the new boot animation.;)
[Captivate Android Development] Barbarian:
I hear jvt has that unacceptable and pathetic wifi bug. Constant disconnects every minute or so. Jvt is nothing special.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
HELP. Here's a strange one I can't figure out. Reverted back to VI and phone has been running great for past 4 days. This morning I woke to a Swpe FC error message on the screen. Attempted to reboot and stuck on the Unicorn screen. Finally did a complete wipe of everything and reflashed the ROM. Still can't get past the unicorn screen. Any clues as to the cause ?
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
Sounds like you need to start over from stock gb (see post #2).
[Captivate Android Development] jewellsimon:
Wifi bug.......wifi bug, is not the term it is more like a wifi leech or worm.... I tried jvt just cause and it has its ups but for someone who relies on wifi (no 3g on plan) it is a 5 minute base (after 5minutes you leave it) good luck -Collective-

Sent from my Brain...
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Had no choice but to do that. Hope I don't have to do this every 4 days
[Captivate Android Development] Seanbest:
I am on JVT right now and have no wifi bug. My router however leases it's DHCP every 1440 minutes (24 hours) and I've never had any disconnects. Wifi works great. Just need to change the lease time on DHCP on your router to something less than "forever". Mine defaults at 1440 minutes so I left it at that.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
I hear that Devil Dog. Like a beautiful shiny car on the outside and a cracked engine block under the hood...lol

---------- Post added at 06:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:11 PM ----------

Glad to hear about the wifi. How's the rest of JVT looking?
[Captivate Android Development] Seanbest:
JVT is pretty quick. Awesome battery so far. off charger since 7am and at 76% battery almost 12 hours later. Light to medium usage. most of the drain is a few long phone calls. Don't like the over the top theme on this rom though. Hoping for a mosaic jvt soon. Can't stand the look of my current rom.

Sent from my Captivate (Mosaic MVII) using the XDA App
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
I also do not have any wifi issues after a full day on JVT Obsession. It seems more reliable so far. I had instability with JVR.

Id say they are close to done...expect AT&T final build soon? Maybe the same day they take the wrapper off of Ice Cream Sandwich. ;)

edit: of course 1 minute after posting, hot reboot with incoming phone call. lol.
[Captivate Android Development] rquiett:
Why would at&t have anything to do with a phone and firmware that they don't even have?
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
lol...that's too funny....un-friggin-believable...lol
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
yeah, brain fart there on my part!
[Captivate Android Development] 4n6science:
Thanks you guys for another awesome ROM. VII is running way better than VI for me. I love the drop down notification animation, it looks awesome!
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
Guys, why is setup wizard still under known issues? Can't we just delete the phonesetupwizard.apk (something like that) and get rid of it.

I do it everytime.
[Captivate Android Development] BWolf56:
It might be fine on your phone but during testing, it was giving us some random issues and fcs.
[Captivate Android Development] brettchuck:
Just did the update for Big Mem 1200 and downloaded the latest Control Freak app..Holy cr@p did that increase the speed and smoothness!!!

winamp? (collusion with poweramp)
[Captivate Android Development] rizzo269:
Im really wanting to give this a shot. I have tried all of the GB roms out so far and experienced weird issues with all of them. Force closes, screen going black, not being able to answer calls. I have read this entire topic and it seems that the ROM is working great.

Also when I was on the GB roms my battery life was worse than firefly. I may have to just man up and try this again.

Love the Team Phoenix ROMS for sure. Thanks for all of the efforts put into these!
[Captivate Android Development] stewtang:
I haven't had any force closes and battery life is amazing!
[Captivate Android Development] kimchi0400:
I'm getting bad battery life, 25% android os 36% winamp... I had winamp on for ten minutes, not sure why that and android os are sucking up so much.
[Captivate Android Development] LongDono:
ADW screen transition effects

ROM looks great. One thing I noticed, that also happened in Cyanogen, ADW's Screen transition effects are crippled to the point of being non-usable, unless you're using the default boring one, "Normal scroll." Presumably this is an issue that ADW, itself, has with Gingerbread and is not ROM related, since it happens in both ROMs.

I guess giving up the animation (#6) that causes iphone owners to go, "Wow," for Gingerbread is a fair tradeoff. :)
[Captivate Android Development] dirtyballoonot:
Does anyone really care what iPhone owner's think?
[Captivate Android Development] dr01dfan:
That was definitely worth the wait! Team Phoenix just popped my GB cherry :D

Everything went without a hitch, and I'm loving everything so far. Thank you so much guys!!
[Captivate Android Development] LongDono:
I'm sure I'm the only one that enjoys a little bit of jealousy over their phone. :rolleyes:

Yes, I care what my coworkers and friends think. We're not enemies where their opinion automatically doesn't matter because they have an iphone. :)
[Captivate Android Development] mindbullet:
Yeah, I experienced the same thing. I don't think its limited to Mosaic as I've had it happening on GR-11 too.
[Captivate Android Development] ChikiBujia:
I'm running ADW Ex with random transitions, and haven't had a problem at all.

This might be a stupid advice, but have you tried clearing Dalvyk and cache?
[Captivate Android Development] meadhros:
Winamp ..

how bout them beastie boys!
[Captivate Android Development] zeronothing:
I have noticed the WiFi seems to be a little weak in this build. I originally came from phoenix 4.5 and with that ROM I used to get much stronger signal. Is it possible that in this ROM/Kernel their is some sort of limit on the transmit power? Just wondering if maybe anyone else is experiencing this similar issue/situation.
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
But I can flash a rom that has a kernel that includes cwn 3.0 with cwm 2.5? Right
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I think devs pointed earlier that its the case with wifi being weak on 2.3.3 in general
[Captivate Android Development] Seanbest:
What's this volume plus? Couldn't find anything on it anywhere. I hate how quiet the speaker is as well.

Ehh, I've owned an iPhone 3G, 4G, and I have my Captivate and The Samsung Focus WP7.

The iPhone is the lamest of the bunch (and the WP7 doesn't do squat!) and there's really nothing to rave about in the 4G, it's almost identical to 3GS.

Just sayin' :)
[Captivate Android Development] ChikiBujia:
Well, someone please correct me if I am wrong, but yes, you can.

The only thing you'd have to do when flashing kernels is, if you are running Ext4 lagfix (I think it's only with Talon and the app in his thread), you would need to convert back to RFS and then flash.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Yes. U'd need to be on RFS to flash a different kernel or a different 2.3.3 ROM
[Captivate Android Development] dsmitty166:
Yep thats correct
[Captivate Android Development] zeronothing:
Thanks for the info, I just was hoping it wasn't just me experiencing this particular issue.

[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
i actually do have a question by the way... i tried to put a new boot animation in system/media and now i cant delete any of the files in that folder it says i dont have permision ...how do i get permission?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Mount r/w

If using root explorer it's the button on the top right.
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
looks like im going to have to break down and buy it..ive tried a few other apps but they wont let me either
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
Try super manager, it's free. You can enable root function in settings

<«Swyped from phone»>
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
nope i suppose i have to buy the full version.....im not a cheapskate but i would like to try one out before i buy it

Edit: I finally did it with file manager ,settings /mount sytem files.........Thanks guys
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
I use the free one, it has root function. It's all I've ever needed.

<«Swyped from phone»>
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
yea i'm just to lame to figure it out.maybe after i get some sleep.So now i'll hit reboot and see if i soft brick
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
Well for tomorrow..... In super manager settings, check root function. Then when you go into a system folder it will ask if you want to enable r/w or stay as read only. :)

<«Swyped from phone»>
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
Thanks man ...that worked . all that so i could get the mosaic boot back .trouble is the thing boots so fast now i dont even have a chance to see it.but whos complaining i could still be on eclair...ugh
[Captivate Android Development] Mortem Tuam:
Yes. VII runs much better than VI did for me too.
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
In case anybody else is interested, I did a little experiment and so far it's working for me. I use Go Launcher exclusively, so having the TW Launcher installed means an extra step every time the ROM forgets which launcher I want to use. I made a backup of the TW Launcher that comes with M7, then uninstalled it (I don't have the Tibu key, so no freezing for me right now). After a week of testing, the system is running well without the TW Launcher installed. YMMV of course, but if you don't use the TW Launcher, you may be able to take it out of the system without sacrificing system stability.

Oh, and just for clarification's sake: M7, Talon 0.5.1.2 Big Mem @ 1200 MHz.
[Captivate Android Development] razorguy:
I'm absolutely loving VII with the red theme. Great work all around :D

My only problem seems to be my messaging app closing repeatedly on its own (and sometimes when I open up to use the phone it does it also). Essentially what happens is I click Messaging and it comes up but after 1 or 2 seconds closes on its own and then I have to reopen it. That will sometimes happen 3-5 times in a row before it will actually stay open. If I choose a new text from the notification bar it will also do this on occasion though it seems like it may be happening a little more frequently lately.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
[Captivate Android Development] gunderbum:
ive been using the ice cream launcher. it also works very nice

edit: o yea ,i didnt have to uninstall the tw launcher and it hasnt tried to switch yet after a couple weeks.
[Captivate Android Development] trekie86:
Pretty sure it isn't TouchWiz. As far as I know, it is more of a vanilla android launcher. Hence the process name is Launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
Launcher2.apk to be exact...

The vanilla gingerbread launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] jmtheiss:
Thanks for catching that. In any case, that launcher is gone now.

And does anyone know how to get a flavor other than vanilla gingerbread? Would chocolate gingerbread run with the screen slightly darker, and strawberry gingerbread make the phone run hotter?
[Captivate Android Development] studacris:
well strawberry gingerbread would make me all itchy and break out in hives so F that!!
[Captivate Android Development] bkimbel:
DC 4.1

DarkCore 4.1 is running well for me so far. Good battery, wifi, gps, incoming and outgoing calls; everything seems great!
[Captivate Android Development] fractaline:
Did you try wiping caches? It's a great place to start. Also clear data of mms.apk in manage apps.

My question....

I noticed that my themed gmail and new market have reverted to the older versions. It seemed to happen after experimenting with talon and then upon returning to dc4......... I know I can pull them from the ROM and reinstall but I was curious of others have seen this happen......

Btw.... You people are great.
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
I believe both have been updated since the mvii release, so my guess it wasn't a revert but actually an update.

Help please

Here's my problem I need serious help with as this is my phone I use for work.

I was having issues with vs7 and my incar BTooth causing phone FC issues so a lot of you great people suggested just to install and run vs6 until the next update. So I flashed 6 & 6 update zip and also flashed the SuperNova theme afterwards. Incar BT problem solved and phone is working great. Then this problem.

After running vs6 for about 4 days or so my setting.apk, contacts.apk, smsmessaging.apk and phone.apk TOTALLY dissapear off my phone. I can still receive phone calls and answer them but if I press the icon for any of the above is says "could not launch requested activity". Also, if you open my app drawer the programs are no longer showing there either. Additionally, going into Recovery Mode and trying a NAND restore or complete wipe and reflash results in phone being stuck in the boot screen.

The only thing I can do is wait until I get home and redo everything through ODIN. This results in me basically having to start from scratch and resetup my phone every 4 days which is obviously not practical. Especially now that I'm stuck at work and can not make outgoing calls or texts, etc.

Does anyone on here have any clue what could be causing this and know how I can fix it before I lose my sanity? Thanks in advance
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
if you still have the zips on your SD you can at least try to clear cashe and dalvic and reflash the theme first which should have those apps in it. if that don't work reflash the rom after clearing cashes. And that will at least get you through today
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
I'm afraid to try as previous attempts of reflashing causes the phone to get stuck on the "blazing saddles" screen. If that happens before I get to my house then I won't even be able to get incoming phone calls and emails.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Ok, tried a reflash of just the theme and phone is still same. I wonder if it the theme creating the problem
[Captivate Android Development] jde984:
i actually experienced the same problem you did on mvi. i noticed it shortly after flashing talon (could be a coincidence though). i tried flashing the revert package as well as replacing the apks with root explorer, but nothing worked. i ended up reflashing mvi and everything was golden.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Well this rom isn't running off Talon so I know that's not the issue. When I reflash MV6 it fixes everythin but approximately 4 days later it happens again. I'm at a loss
