Should I Be Concerned

I cannot tell whether I have one issue, two issues, or no issues and I am looking for a little help.

I Just flashed Mosaic IX using the Odin Package in Post #2. It said "passed."

When I go to "About phone" says GT-I9000, firmware 2.3.6, baseband I9000UGJK4 and kernel w.6.35.7-I9000xwjw1-cl78890, and build number Mosaic 9.

I did notice something unusual with the boot animation. For the first part, it starts up I9000 and then switches to I897. (I read something about this in a previous post but it went off on how the guy nearly bricked his phone, which does not seem to be my problem.

I did get a message on my computer that, "Device Driver software was not successfully installed". It says that SAMSUNG_Android X Device Unplugged" and Android UMS Composite USB Device X Device Unplugged." The other five drivers are "ready to use." I have search the forum but cannot find anyone with this issue.

Should I just reflash the ROM from Recovery or redo Odin (or not worry)?

Need to upgrade from VI to IX

I'm currently on Mosaic VI and using the bootloaders from this thread.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1129821

I would like to upgrade to Mosaic IX. Can anyone please help how I can do that ? Is it as straightforward as the instructions in the second post of the Mosaic IX thread or is there anything else that needs to be taken care of ? Appreciate your help.

I'm currently using my Cappy in India and can't risk a brick. I would rather be extra slow than sorry :(
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hclaveria:
My phone goes through the same animation and also has the same details in About Phone but I dont have any issues connecting to the computer or using the phone.

I would first use a different USB cable. I know for a fact that a bad cable has caused problems for me that looked a lot more serious. I would also re-download the PC drivers independently. I haven't had to download them for some time but this is where I got them:

Ok, I'm back. I have found a couple more bugs/glitches in the ROM. I am going to test and see if this is user error (I flashed straight from a Cognition 2.2 build straight the Mosaic 9) first before I attribute them to the ROM.

But for knowledge's sake, I'll go ahead and list them.

1) I don't receive incoming calls. I am fine making outgoing calls, but when someone tries to call me, my phone temporarily loses service and sends their call to voicemail.

2) The native browser force closes after about 30 seconds. I tried clearing all the browser data to see if it was a conflict between the previous ROM's data, and it seemed to remedy the problem for about 3 minutes. But then it force closed and went back to around 30 seconds per attempt.

I'm going to flash to stock and start from square one, and try that to see if it was my fault. Otherwise, I'll be back to help figure out the causes! Still loving the ROM though.

Are you going to continue using the GO home screen? They have an entire section dedicated to lock screen themes.

EDIT: it can be found by going to the homescreen, pressing menu, and then scrolling to the plugins tab. Download the GO Locker app. After installation, open the app and hit more. There are tons of themes and lock screens to choose from.

I just flashed cleanly and it works perfect! Thanks for the help.

Mosaic9 and Corn 1.05

Hope I got this in the right spot. I saw in the development thread about flashing the Corn I9000 kernel on Mosaic 9 and having to flash a I897 modem with it. I did this and got constant reboots. So I flashed Mosaic9 again then flashed Corn 1.05 without a modem and no reboots and the sound works as normal without any problems. Hope this helpful to anyone who tries it.

question... can I extract EDT.apk from MOSAIC 8, and put it in system/app in MOSAIC 9?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NunHugger:
Sure.but its not going to change anything. The status bar mods need the system ui to have a couple of smali and xml edits, and the locks need a lot of edits to the framework, framework-res, and the Android.policy.jar. If it were as simple as just adding the EDT app, believe me, it would be an option.

Any more luck? Mine seems to be losing battery quickly too, but I just flashed two days ago.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
You gotta let it settle a few days after flashing. Also, do full charge circles (during that time atleast).
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bendawg:
Actually, was surprised today to find that in 15 hours, I still had 45% left. Pretty good, actually. "Full charge cycle" means let it run completely out of battery and then charge it completely back right?

One other question. I have noticed that every time I get a notification (like an e-mail notification), the screen comes on briefly, then flicks back off. Is there any way to change it so the screen doesn't come on for notify?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N64Nester:
I was a daily flasher back when I first got my phone but now Odin keeps bricking my device. I switched over to flashing with Heimdall (which always seems to find the phone and flash 100%, Odin has always been flakey with me) I couldn't find a Heimdall stand alone flasher for Mosaic IX. Is there one or has anyone compiled one? When loading the current md5 into Mosaic Heimdall says an xml is missing.

I've loaded stock 2.3.4 with root and got CWM installed and running in recovery. Can I just rename the md5 as .zip and apply via CWM recovery? Or is there a Mosaic IX stand alone Heimdall? Sorry if this has been addressed but I've been scouring via search and post but couldn't find it after a couple days of searching (been outta the flashing days since just after Phoenix)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Yep, that's what I meant by full charge cycles. As for the notification, I'm not sure, I'll look and let you know.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
The link in the development op is a zip used for cwm. You would only need heimdall or odin to update your boot loaders, but since you've got gingerbread and cwm already all you need is to download the zip in the op and flash it in recovery.

There are edits to the build.prop already done....but they don't seem to actually effect anything on gingerbread, i put it in anyway though. Other than that Idk.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demoicurn:
I'm wondering if that may be the source of my mysterious battery drain. I have had an increase in my battery consumption(+7%/hr) right around the time I upgraded to to gingerbread. No app gone mad found. The drain is there even with stock Mosaic. Phoenix only would drain me around 2%. I would like to know how I can learn how to modify build.prop? I have a feeling my battery drain could be from my cappy searching for networks so often. Cell standby is my battery sucker

Sent from my GT-I9000
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Cell standby is from the modem searching fire mobile network. Not the wifi scanning. Try a few different modems.

No need to edit the build.prop cause as i said..those edits are already present. But if you want to anyway...just go to /system and edit it with a plain text editor.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Do you leave your wifi, gps and such on even when you don't use them? If so, that would explain a big part of your battery drain. Also, even on standby, widgets like weather update so i'm thinking it could be something you didn't use before or that updates very often (like facebook). You can go in their settings to change that update frequency.

One last thing, a app draining alot of battery might not show in your battery usage. I'd suggest you get OS Monitor if you don't already have it to check your apps.

I always turn off Wi-Fi, 3g, GPS when not used. Also, I have used os monitor and it showed android system as the culprit. It just seems odd seeing my cappy scan so frequently. Cell standby drains heavy if I'm in a bad cell area

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shutterbc:
Would be interesting if you posted which modems you tried and what your results were. I haven't moved off JK4 yet even though it's an old modem. Call quality is good but I am noticing high power usage with 3G. Wifi power consumption for me is very low. Attached is an example of my power consumption overnight under wifi only (9% over a 7 hour period, or 1.3% per hour).

There are a number of users reporting an issue with Gingerbread taking large amounts of CPU time under the "Android OS" heading, but that doesn't sound like your issue. Fortunately I don't appear to be affected by this problem either (whew). By the way to post screen shots you can use DDMS if connecting via USB.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shutterbc:
Oh! I forgot one more thing -- with OS Monitor there is a setting called "hide system process" which you may want to turn off. This will tell you which system process within "Android OS" is really sucking up CPU time. When I was on a Froyo ROM, I had an issue where the swap process was bringing my phone to its knees even when sitting idle. If I hid system processes, it just said "android system" was taking up all the time but didn't give me any specifics to go on.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NunHugger:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NunHugger:
Dialer fix...

So when making the dialer transparent, one of the values in the color folder was made transparent...causing it to not show up. This was done to remove a black box behind the numbers when you dial. Subsequently, everything that calls on that color twcolor 002 i think it was, becomes transparent...which just so happens to be our issue here.

First, you will need to decompile the dialer using apktool/apkmanager. The menu affected is called dialer_searchdialog_contents.xml and is found in the layout folder. Open it and you will see on several lines that it is calling on tw_color002(value is 00000000, the first two 00s tell us that it is transparent), which you can find in the values/color folder. You need to change this value to a value that is black...I used tw_color017 as it's value = ff000000(the ff tells us it's opaque). So just change all 02 to 17, save, recompile, then...go to the build folder, grab only that xml, and place it in the dialer apk using 7zip. Push/flash...enjoy.

Issue fixed.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:

Also, is GO Launcher the only launcher that comes with Mosaic? I had assumed there would be a default AND Go Launcher.

Your phone needs to settle down after a flash, it can take a couple to a few full battery cycle before you get the best battery life outta it. Re-calibrating can also help.

I thought I needed a new battery by now with my old rom, but with this rom my phone will be up all day till night time and still have 30% left. On my old rom half a day would go and I would need a charge.

GPS is spot on, for once.

But I think the only thing I have issues with is when I open the internet browser. It will force close, but then I try again and it works with no issues.

One other issue is the speaker phone when on a phone call, its quieter than before (and I think even the handset volule is lower to) but the media sound is a little louder than before.

Those are the 2 things that I see bothering me.

But hands down this rom is NiiIIIce.

Dunno about the browser issue, I haven't heard any reports of a buggy browser, i personally have used dolphin browser forever no issues.

As for the call volume, it is going to be a of a lesser quality than a native captivate based ROM, because this is an I9000 firmware, this it uses an I9000 modem, which does not have audience chip support for noise cancellation.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
The browser force closing could be from a bad restore. If it does it again, i'd suggest to delete your current one with tibu, extract the one from the rom (7zip or root explorer) and manually install it. If you plan on using a different browser like dolphin, then you can most likely ignore it or even freeze it.

Text Messaging issues after flashing Mosaic 9

Hello all,

I just flashed Mosaic 9 to my cappy and at first glance, it was GREAT! I did some tooling around right after flashing and while doing so I received a text. I responded, however the sent message failed to send. I reviewed all the settings and nothing seemed wrong. I did some research to see if anyone else had issues, but nothing. So I then decided, maybe some minor glitch was affecting the send and maybe a re-flash of the rom would fix it. No joy. I've also downloaded a secondary text app from marketplace, but that worked the same way. Allows receiving of texts, but no sending.

Can anyone relate to past/present issues like mine? any suggestions? Thanks in advance.:confused:
