Thanks for the help. Another quick question. How can I enable BLN. I put on neldars control app but it doesnt seem to work. Do i have to flash a kernel with it enabled. If so, any suggestions for which?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChikiBujia:
The kernel that comes with MosaicV is BLN enabled. All you need to do is download the BLN app from the market and enable it. Some apps also require you to select the LED notifications option under their settings.

Hello

Guys...I am glad that I am a Captivate community fella. I used LG Optimus 2x and returned it due to random reboots and shutdowns even with MoDaCo ROM. Though my heart wanted SGS2, I settled for Captivate which I was getting for half the price of SGS2. I have installed Mosaic V. Few things I've experienced are listed below:

1) When I turn on the phone, the Bootup screen is grainy and distorted after which "Galaxy" loader shines nicely and a grainy screen appears for a moment before lock screen shows up.

2) In Gallery section, the background behind the photo albums is grainy and distorted.

3) Youtube video is also grainy and distorted. Just the video, audio is good.

4) Camera section too was grainy and distorted but when I clicked a pic, the picture quality is good.

5) Now, the puzzling part is problem points 2,3 and 4 disappears after some time. I tried many times to emulate this issue. I can say one thing. 2,3 and 4 definitely occurs in first few minutes of phone start. I don't know how these problems fade off.

6) Before I flashed M5, I was able to go in recovery by pressing both volume buttons+power button. But I can't get in recovery with the same sequence. I've even tried Volume Up+Power buttons as mentioned on MV ROM thread. I still can't get into it. I have so many themes to try:D

But the bottom line is I am in love with Mosaic V. It is the perfect thing for me. The way it looks and runs is just me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
Your disturtions problems could be a problem with your phone (hardware). You're the first one that we know that has experienced that. I'd suggest maybe trying to re-download the rom, clear cache, dalvik, factory reset and reflash.

As for your buttons combos, they should still be working the same unless you flashed the I897 bootloaders.

I'm glad you're enjoying Mosaic and I hope we can figure out these little bugs!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venkarl:
Thanks wolf...but I never had this problem with the stock Eclair ROM...you still think its a hardware problem?

Is there a different way of getting into recovery to try reinstalling it?(other than Vol Up+ Power)

cheers!!

Thanks
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rquiett:
you could use the extended power menu to get to recovery, if you haven't already is you open the theme settings app and you can choose what you want in your extended power menu
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BWolf56:
It's really hard to tell, it could be so many things or a bad mix of a couple things. Either way, i'd try redownloading the rom, clear and stuff and reflash.

Can't hurt to try :) and you're gonna have a clear rom to start with.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Venkarl:
Recover option in the extended power menu too failed on me. It just shows me a blank screen after att world phone screen. Now, as wolf has suggested, to reflash it from scratch, I tried downloading ODIN from the link given on "How to Install Custom ROM" thread in Captivate section

But when I click ODIN, I get this error

Why am I this unlucky:mad:

Oh man, sorry for the miss-understanding. I meant that just clearing cache, dalvik, factory reset and flash the rom would probably be good.

Altought, it could very well work even better that way. Keep us updated!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d_gritza:
I'm currently running serendipity 7 and very interested in trying Mosaic V.

Here is my plan of action.

1. Use ODIN to flash a non EXT4 kernel (suggestions?)

2. Clear Cache/Dal..

3. Flash the ROM

4. Play around with it

5. Make a donation.

Good? Bad? Better way?

EDIT: Step 0. Backup apps using TiBU

Revision of step 1 & 2. 1. Disable lagfix. No separate kernel needs flashed before hand.

How do I disable the lagfix? disabling in voodoo control is enough?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rkkaranrk:
These are not related to rom they are related to bootlaoders, I am on kf1 loaders and the button combination for me are vol up and down + power recovery and both vol and cable DL.

Whar bootloaders are u running i9000 or the i897 ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Yup. that should do it. or there is a folder on your sdcard named voodoo, you can make a folder in it called disable-lagfix then reboot (that's all the app does anyway).

Hey guys, I'm still on a 2.2 rom and have decided to try out Mosaic V...judging by all the feedback on the forums, it seems like a great rom. Anyway, I've never flashed a GB rom before and I'm wondering if BWolf's instructions in the second post are still valid for Mosaic V (I noticed they are around a month old)? Also, are there any other tips you guys have, or stuff you recommend I look over before I go through with this? Thanks!

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
You didn't flash gingerbread bootloaders at all did you? That's exactly what happens when you don't. Idk about the other problems but these are cause by eclair/froyo bootloaders on a gingerbread rom. Go back to post 2 and download the stock I9000 gingerbread package, follow those instructions to a T and then flash MV AFTER stock gingerbread. That will instantly solve the weird boot screens and inability to boot into recovery.

I haven't heard one report of anyone losing button combo (vol down + power) where only a jig would work once gb bootloaders are flashed.

That being said though a jig is never a bad idea I'm just saying you don't need a jig any more on gb than you did on froyo. Actually perhaps now it's less needed because like I said noone has lost the button combos on gingerbread for download OR recovery. The only issue with recovery that I've seen is when someone is still on froyo bootloaders.

Hey guys,

I just moved from Firefly 3.0 to Mosaic, and I followed all the instructions that you listed in Mosaic's development thread to the letter. Everything seems to have worked out great, except that my home button isn't worked. All the other buttons seem to work, except Home. Has anyone else had this problem? It also did not work when I initially flashed to "Gingerbread stock", so the problem must be further up the instructions? What can I do to fix this?

I'm not very experienced with GB roms, as I just came from Firefly, and I only really have experience with One-Click Odin (not the full program, although I did use the full program to follow the instructions). Does anyone have any ideas on my problem? Hopefully its fixable and I didn't half-brick the phone :confused:

Now that I look at it, though, isn't I9000_reoriented_vG.1.1_novoo.tar in the big package of "FILES YOU NEED" the kernel (step 5 of the tutorial).

Obviously I am a little lost....

Hmmm looks like you need to flash a different kernel for some reason it looks like the kernel for mosaic v didn't take. Your kernel for v should say darkcore jvp you could try flashing the rom again or go over to darkys site and grab his kernel.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rquiett:
Sounds like you have a rouge app running or something you shouldn't be getting drain like that. You need to get a process manager or something that can show you what apps are running and then go from there, not sure on the exact app name.
