Once I enabled all the lagfixes the flash worked. GPS is awesome! I like the animations. Overall its pretty snappy too. Battery life is good and just overall haven't noticed any glitches. Darky 10.2 :-D
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
Really wish you could change the lock screen wall paper its really bright and makes it difficult to read what is on screen
[Captivate Android Development] Fate-Silver:
I think the most VITAL parts for this ROM now is to fix:

a.) SMS Bug(not sure if it's fixed in R4)...

b.) Lockscreen Bug(HELL YEAH!!!)
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
what is the sms bug?

I've noticed if I use handcent I no longer get notification but if I use go sms works no problem.

(not just this rom though in general)

change lockscreen wallpaper

Sorry guys.. just waitin on Ficeto coz he said he's bringing something special to the ROM.. So just waitin till that is complete prior to including other lockscreens.

Here's how to change ur lockscreen wallpaper for now (let me know if u need any help):

Extract /system/framework/framework-res.apk from phone and open it using come compression utility like 7zip. Go to "res\drawable-hdpi" and change "default-wallpaper.jpg" with the one you like.. Make sure that it's the same name.. Then put it back to phone and reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
Also wanted to say overall I really like thee look and feel to this rom. Haven't tested gps or battery life yet
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
Well with the way I altered R4 to run on the Cappy on Saturday, GPS is amazingly fast and the battery life losing 60% in 17 hours is not bad at all with moderate to high use. On Mosaic IV, V and VI at work inside the building would take 30 - 45 seconds to lock and I just tested mine after I did a reboot of changing out the phone.apk, locked in 12 seconds which indoors is a record lol with an accuracy of 30 meters. I had one reboot but I was trying to run an altered phone.apk which I went back to the original. I am still running the kc1 modem to add as well...

HTH,

Charlie
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
What GPS change was made?
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
I am not sure because I have not done any of the fixes except just replacing GPS.conf, build.prop, and melfas touchkey file in the original r4 release from team darky as I changed the modem from jvr to kc1 and coming from jvp and even jvq, idk what ficeto or Samsung done but my gps has never worked any better including running eclair and froyo compared to now!

Hth,

Charlie
[Captivate Android Development] color0:
I'm also curious what GPS changes have been tried and tested, because this is the only remaining issue with the ROM (10.2, I didn't feel like dealing with JVR bugs yet).

Using PlumbBob's GPS Fix v2.0 beta 11 and TalonDEV 0.4.4.22 I'm able to get a consistent lock indoors of at least 30m accuracy, about half the time it's <10m. The tracking performance I have yet to test outdoors in a car, however the fact that it can get a 10m lock indoors using only cell network and GPS data (no WiFi) is far better than the other Gingerbread ROMs I have tried. So I have high hopes for this ROM to perform on the road tomorrow. The lock performance was actually even better using DarkCore 3.1, but I experienced a little lag between TouchWiz 4.5 and the live wallpaper running on the phone so I thought I would try overclocking.

As a side note, Darky's benchmark performance is absolutely bonkers -- this is the first Gingerbread ROM I've tried that hits 2800 on Quadrant without using any tricks whatsoever. And battery life is exceptional with either Talon or DarkCore!
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
The deal with mine is that I am not using Cell Towers at all, just gps, I usually turn off the cell towers just because I want my gps to do it's job. I am not using Plumb Bobs at all. I am just using the DarkCore 3.1 kernel that came with the r4 release but the cappy version. I am quite pleased with jvr as a whole compared to jvp/jvq. I had to reboot at least every couple of days but it was sometimes 3 - 4x a day because my phone would lock up, where as I only reboot when I change an apk or I need to. I have not ran TalonDev on JVR because TalonDev ran great for 3 - 4 days then endless lag on Perception 2 betas, Mosaic IV, V and VI, so I stuck with the stock kernels and DarkCore has been treating me great!

HTH,

10.2.1 Beta

Sorry to post here but I cannot find the Darky 10.2 thread. Will a 10.2.1 beta be made for the Captivate?
[Captivate Android Development] rickysa2000:
Same thread, 10.2 is still below JVR.. I can do a captivate version for the 10.2.1, but its still JVQ.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Yup, I understand. R4 just needs a few more tweaks (maybe R5) and I will stay on it. I saw you had the 10.2.1 beta for the I9000 and thought I would ask.

If more trouble than it is worth, I will wait for JVR R5. Running 10.2 now so I am happy.
[Captivate Android Development] soblecram:
dumb question, but how to change lock screen?
[Captivate Android Development] color0:
You'll have to find and download an app called EDT Tweaks, I *think* the link is in this thread somewhere but a quick search should give you more information.

Once you've obtained EDT.apk, you can't install it like a normal app; use Yaffs Explorer or any similar file manager to convert your /system folder to read-write capability (or do it manually xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=771468 ), and then copy-paste EDT.apk into the /system/app folder. Reboot once for safety's sake and you should see EDT Tweaks in your app drawer after it reboots. Using the application itself is very straightforward so I won't walk you through that. :)
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
Here is the EDT.apk

Or here if you choose: http://db.tt/AXWvQYq

edit: found my answer by reading the forums... who woulda thunk it....
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
Morning ALL,

Can Darky's JVR R4 be installed over Darky's v10.2 Extreme Cappy Edition without any issues?

Would it be considered any update?
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
I have done it with no problems. I cleared Dalvik cache, cleared cache, factory reset and made sure all lag-fixes were enabled. I was on DC 2.9 kernel when I did it.

Backup your apps prior to starting ;)
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
Thanks. :D
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Is 10.3 Cappy coming our way? I see it is up for I9000 on the Darky site.

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
I have 10.3 running on my cappy with zero issues. If OP wants I can post it on my 4shared account and give the OP?? I have been running KC1 but the one I have uploaded, has jk4 modem with it, since I made the alterations on Saturday night when I downloaded 10.3 and altered it to run on the cappy..

HTH,

Charlie
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
I really like the UGJK4 modem.

Is it a lot of work to port for cappy?
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
Nope not hard at all. You have to delete the i9000 under Darky/Flash and then Under, under the i897 folder, you move the gps.conf to system/etc/ folder, build.prop from the i897 folder to /System folder and move the melfas_touchkey.kl in the i897 to /System/usr/keylayout and move the jk4 modem.bin to Darky/Flash/i897 .. Then move the .zip folder of 10.3 to your sd and flash just like xxjvr r4. Literally takes less then a minuet to do the above changes to the rom before flashing. What is nice Ficeto leaves everything for the Cappy and the i9000 and by default the i9000 settings are in the above areas. Just delete the i9000 files in the above areas as well before moving the cappy files there, but it works perfectly after the changes are made.

HTH,

Charlie
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
I can do that. Thanks for the info.

AOSP Lockscreen

Anyone have the AOSP lockscreen that works with 10.3? The one I have I believe is for R4 and will not work?

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] adrian18w:
It seems that the GB keyboard is still crashing, just installed today. Everything else seems to work so far.
[Captivate Android Development] kuraijay:
i just installed 10.3 beta 1 on my phone and the build number after the flash was r4. is it suppose to be like this?
[Captivate Android Development] skymaster00:
don´t work lock screen......i installed edt, but no work........ somebody help me
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Mine said the same on 10.3.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
EDT did not work for me on 10.3 so I went back to 10.2 for the AOSP lock screen.
[Captivate Android Development] anotherupna:
I have the same issue. G keyboard not working. Reinstalled it couple of times.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
Install the windows phone 7 gingerbread KB as a replacement.
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
deleted......
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
Because the Build.Prop for the Cappy was not altered, even in the 10.3 on Darkyrom's site, it was an overlook from what I read but the rom is really stable, even though I flashed my phone with a cwm flash to enable EDT Tweaks so I could get the aosp lock screen but there is a slight issue, which the screen goes to sleep occasionally and will not come back on unless a force reboot of the phone. Otherwise, love the battery life average with heavy usage around 12 - 15 hours is what I am getting with 10.3 beta 1..

As for GB Keyboard, I used an apk that I have had for a while since running Perception 1 days, and it is working fine under 10.3 b1...

HTH,

Charlie
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
cant change the lock screen wallpaper any help
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
If you want AOSP, here it is. Posted in post #641.

EDIT: Sorry, I just saw you were trying to change the wallpaper, not the lockscreen.
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
Thankzz anyways
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
Did you try going into settings/display/Wallpapers/Lock Screen Wallpaper?? Worked for me before flashing the framework changes for EDT Tweaks to work properly.

HTH,

Charlie
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
tried a couple of times but no luck can

i installed edt tweaks but it won work what framework changes did u flash
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
I could not change the lockscreen wallpaper either and EDT did not work for me on R4. Working on 10.2 though so I went back to it.
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
so i just flash Darkys_v10.2_Captivate_Edition.zip in cwm
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Yupper. Clear Delvik cache and cache and CWM back. I had a nandroid BU of 10.2 so I then restored it through CWM and was up and running.
[Captivate Android Development] wibi795:
ok thankz for your time man

10.2.1 R2 Final

Are you planning on posting a 10.2.1 R2 final for the cappy. I tried removing I9000 folders and moving files as described in an earlier post but some things are still I9000.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] dmnall:
I have not tried it since I used the aosp lock screen update that was in the darkyrom jvs post, but I did lose the extended power menu which was no good.

Yes switching to a different build will but it is not that big of a deal.

Really? It did not work? It worked for me, you just need to get edt tweaks apk and then it worked fine.

The only issue I am experiencing which a lot of people are experiencing with wifi and dhcp, when using dhcp it wants to disconnect and reconnect but with Static IP set, it works fine go figure. I am looking into hacking it a bit lol. If I can get the wifi issue fixed, then changing the camera apk..

HTH,

Thankk you for me best rom ever for galaxy s series..I am really happy because i found darkyrom for my captivate..
[Captivate Android Development] XeoNoX:
Jvs 2.3.5 build with darkcore4 was running ok, prefer apex 10, both had wifi problems but can be fixed by disabling dhcp reservation in router or setting static IP on your Android device
[Captivate Android Development] mnemonicj:
I have been rummaging around Darkyrom.com looking for any new ROMs for the Captivate and I am having little success, partially because the website seems to have a large amount of down time. I have been running 10.2 for a month now and I would like to try 10.2.2, but I am not sure there is a version specific to the Captivate.

Anyone else try the 10.2.2 Extreme Edition for the I9000 on their Captivate? I think I am going to try it out and see if I like it. After I flash it I will immediately flash the Darkcore 2.9.3 Kernel for the Captivate.

Let me know if you have tried it on your Captivate and how you like it.
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
That's how I flashed 10.2.1, I flashed the ROM then the TalonDEV 5.1.2 kernel for the Captivate immediately after. Worked well for me.
[Captivate Android Development] imgoneblind:
Alright so I'm currently attempting to use this guide to flash Darky 10.2 onto my Samsung captivate I896. I'm coming from Cognition 5 b2, with GB.

I attempted preforming step 1, word for word. I put my phone into download mode, used odin 1.7, made sure to select the re-partition option, and the appropriate pit-file included in the Ficeto JVP base rom package. Odin gave me a pass, but my phone failed to reboot, and would not respond with any buttons. I managed to recover it using a jig however and returning to stock with Odin.

I really want to move to this ROM but something is going wrong, and I just don't understand what gives. Any advice?
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
Sounds like you did it correctly, but... In Odin, make sure all three blocks are checked: Re-Partition, Auto Reboot, and F. Reset Time.

Sounds to me that maybe the Auto Reboot got unselected.
[Captivate Android Development] SergioJAM:
Im on 10.2.2 without TW4, works just fine, no issues at all at the moment(3 weeks of intense use) and a personal record for batt life (61 hours). Try it, is a fast ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] mnemonicj:
Yeah, I went ahead and went for it. I installed it without TW4 also and it does work well. Surprisingly, the app must have known that my phone was a Captivate because it flashed the Captivate version of the Kernel automatically.

One complaint I have with this ROM that I had with 10.2, but I had hoped was fixed in 10.2.2 is when I play a process intensive game (Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, etc.) when I exit the game and return to the app screen, the app screen is blank (except for the home button) and the phone is fairly unresponsive for up to 20 seconds. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Captivate Android Development] Rhinodad:
I've noticed the same thing. Have no idea what causes it or what a possible solution might be. Just hoping it's something that might get resolved in the next version.
[Captivate Android Development] viny2cool:
I wish switching to Darky's rom was as simple as flashing other GB roms are.....I am on Apex rom now...do i have to follow all those million steps in the OP?
[Captivate Android Development] SergioJAM:
That happens to me when i exit from zombie booth, but just takes around 5 seconds to cappy respond normally again.
[Captivate Android Development] polthong:
I use 10.2.2 final from darkroom.com site my cell phone frequently freeze once a 2 weeks.
[Captivate Android Development] mnemonicj:
After a month with Darky ROM 10.2 and then a couple weeks with Darky ROM 10.2.2, I was not satisfied with the experience. I had several issues:

1. Extremely slow GUI response especially after running process intensive programs.

2. Random issues where the touch screen would not respond when the phone was brought out of standby. The only thing that would remedy it is a battery pull.

3. Random issues where the phone would not respond to the power button when in standby. The only thing that would remedy it is a battery pull.

After the issues, I took a friend's recommendation and flashed CM7.1 this weekend. I think that Darky ROM could be great, but since it was written for the I9000 and made compatible with the Captivate, I think there are some issues.

I wish you well in your future endeavors.

Well, I'm back. What a long strange trip it's been. I tried CM7.1 and loved that it is flexible and fast, but I have a list of issues I can't live with (Charge deaths, unable to make some Bluetooth connections, and choppy HD video)

Now I am back to Darky 10.2.2, but this time with Talon's latest kernel. I am liking the speed and the simplicity.

Patience is a virtue, give some credit to an incredible piece of work you get to use for FREE!
[Captivate Android Development] killer23d:
You need to enable some or all Windows animation in Settings -> Display

For kernel, you could use any JVH based kernel (Re-oriented, Talon, Dark Core). I was trying to implement Talon 0.17 Test 11 into the ROM for a single install, didn't work as Talon uses CF-Root and Darky is using traditional root. I just put re-oriented 1.2-novoo into Darky, then flash in CMW. Once done, flash Talon in Odin and use the CF-Ext4 to convert RFS.

The battery drain issue on GB has been well documented. You probably need to take the battery out, leave it for a good minute, pop it back in, run a full battery calibration.

Darky has A LOT of stuff going into the ROM, therefore I took the liberty to slim it down to about 140MB before G-Apps.

and got the hard reboot problem again, even after odin flashing talon 1.6 this time!!! (last time this fixed my problem)

I really liked your rom, but my phone doesnt!

no one is having the same issue and im not doing anything different.

back to continuum for now till Mosiac IIIH JVH comes out...

[Captivate Android Development] mjkute:
i don't get the same issue, i think you should flash rom again.

Or hard reset by *2767*3855# (back up data before doing)
[Captivate Android Development] bigbooty:
Loaded this up and as soon as I hit install I realized I had xcals jvb kernel. Installed fine and ran fine. Installed xcals jvh kernel and no problems. Did notice tibu ran slow on batch reinstall but no biggy. Installed without disabling lagfix, again no problems. Like it, smooth and fast.
[Captivate Android Development] jcabibi:
Yes, convert to rfs our you will get bootloop... I found out the hard way :P
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
downloading,

am a newbie and would like to ask for advice,

am coming from Continuum with JVH, can I just simply flash it over or there are things to do before flashing? wifi issue fixed, right?
[Captivate Android Development] jcabibi:
Just make sure you undo lagfix if you applied one. Then, just flash over continuum and you should be good to go. Not sure about wifi issue...
[Captivate Android Development] bigbooty:
If your keeping a kernel with lagfix , theres no reason to disable it. I didn't and it installed fine.
[Captivate Android Development] sanjeezy91:
most, if not all, the bugs seems to be gone now. awesome work :)
[Captivate Android Development] sanjeezy91:
yeah i agree, one of the reasons why i love this rom
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
so flashing darky simply over continuum with JVH will be fine & all will be in place automatically, right?just want to be sure & not waking all night to fix, thanks a lot, all gurus!
[Captivate Android Development] mjkute:
usb debugging has problem, i can't use it :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] ph00ny:
downloading it now. I can wait. I've always enjoyed darky rom on the captivate
[Captivate Android Development] agaruba:
You have to disable lag fix if you were on Talons kernel first before flashing darky.
[Captivate Android Development] AznCowlick:
Did the hard reset and it got rid of the hard reboots when I turn the wifi on. But it still says "obtaining IP address" I don't have this problem with Part 1. Had to settle with static ip address instead.

Loving it so far! :D
