[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] garlicknots:
Same issue right now, I'm running Cognition 4.3 right now.

I also cannot get it to upgrade to a CWM 3.x

I may odin one click it and reroot and go from stock.

[EDIT: Figured it out, I was doing Galaxy S - Captivate and not Captivate - MTD then everything showed up]

[EDIT 2: Rom Manager is showing Clockwork @ 3.x.x.x. but when I download a nightly and it reboots it shows 2.5.x, is there a step that I'm missing?]
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Rom manager is pretty much useless on the captivate, great for other phones that it supports more but here not so much. Cwm is baked into every custom kernel already, rom manager can't update it.

The nightlies are for cm7, you can't flash those from cognition you have to be on cm7 first.

If you want a selection of different roms the development section of this forum will more than satisfy your need for variety. Just do some reading first and really get to know what you're doing.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
i ran rom manager to download CM7 onto my phone that was running andromeda3....did it yesterday. got an error on reboot, hit reinstall packages (i was in 3e recovery) and it flashed it right on over. no problems at all.
[Captivate General] dfellars77:
Have you upgraded to a new phone or OS and don't know what to do with your Captivate?

Turn it into a Galaxy S "Touch!"

*****Update 5/24: CWM ROMs available now in the Development Forum

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=14087277#post14087277

Instructions:

(back up with TiBU first and then restore before step 2.)

1. Flash Cognitition 4.4.3 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=964583

(I have only tried this with Cognition, but it should work with everything.)

(Also, make sure that you restore your EFS folder if necessary.)

2. Deleted the following using APKs Using Root Explorer:

Callsettings.apk

CSC.apk

DialerTabActivity.apk

Mms.apk

Phone.apk

Phone_util.apk

TelephonyProvider.apk

SimDetachNotifier.apk

If you get any FC's locate the relevent APK and delete.

3. Reboot

Working:

Bluetooth

Wifi

GPS

Market (Gapps)

USB

Media Player Sync

Browser

Stock Music

CAMERA [5/20 - Update]

much more

*** To fix the camera I installed "GizmoDroid's Modded Camera" using SGSTools***

Battery Life: 99% after 4 hours in standby

I would love help fixing the camera and turning this into a flashable ROM. Additonally, there may be more APKs that can be deleted but it works like this so I don't want to mess with it.

Additionally, if anyone has any of the Galaxy S 4 and 5 specific apps, I would love to see if we could integrate them into this.

[Captivate General] designgears:
Very interesting idea, I can take the cell related stuff out of the notification bar as well. I can help you package it all up later tonight when I get off work. Maybe even get the camera working :)
[Captivate General] dfellars77:
That would be great. I will not be home until later tonight, but would love to see how we can package this up and make sure everything works. I also want to run some battery tests to see what the usuable life is like.
[Captivate General] F1reEng1neRed:
Couldn't you just hit the power button and deactivate data mode and then activate airplane mode?

I visit other countries and that what I do with my phone. Pretty much just use Wifi only. It only drops like 10% for the entire day.
[Captivate General] dfellars77:
The goal was to remove all cellular features including emergency calls so that it would operate purely as a media device. This way I could give it to a child to use as a media player without having to worry about them figuring out how to turn the call features on etc.
[Captivate General] F1reEng1neRed:
Ah, I didn't catch that part. Sounds like a worthwhile endeavor then.
[Captivate General] nyydynasty:
great job and great idea. I'll be watching this thread closely. if it becomes a flashable zip, I can totally see this getting popular as people start upgrading their devices.
[Captivate General] Seanbest:
Great idea. I wouldn't use it, at least until I get a newer phone, but a great idea.
[Captivate General] metalhoos:
Or maybe just remove the sim card?
[Captivate General] Killerfish1450:
I saw this being discussed in an earlier thread, the problem with taking the sim out is it still allows for 911 calls to be made and with a child having it anything could happen.
[Captivate General] metalhoos:
Good point. Thanks.
[Captivate General] dfellars77:
Fixed Camera... updated OP
[Captivate General] Alien2011:
I like this idea very much. I could definately see myself using a setup like this when I upgrade my phone. Best of luck to you!

I really like this idea and will likely do this someday.

I wonder if you could just freeze those apps with TiBu... seems like it would work too. That way it is quickly undoable. (is that a real word?) LOL

GPS not working...

Long story short....I now have a work phone and ported my personal cell to Google Voice. I now have a Captivate that I don't have service for. I would love to use it for a PMP and my golf GPS (Using GolfShot). I installed Captivate Touch, Cognition Edition v2.0 - KB1 2.2 by DesignGears from your thread in the development section. I was unable to get GPS to work. So I decided to install Serendipity 6.4 and remove the APK's myself. Still no GPS. Anyone have any thoughts on how to get GPS to work again?
[Captivate General] Caliesv:
No work arounds. Been about a year and no one has been able to fix it. What i did, that works almost perfect, was went on eBay and bought a Bluetooth GPS receiver. Works extremely well.
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
Try starting with Continuum 4.1. I had very good luck with the GPS on that rom.
[Captivate General] mrbisme33:
For froyo, you'll need to download an lbstestmode app to enable standalone GPS mode. I believe almost all the fixes for the GPS problems use some sort of network assistance which may explain your problems. Keep in mind, you may not have very good results without network assistance.

I had the best luck with Paragon rom for getting the captivate gps to work. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=915698

I started with that, and removed the APKs according to the instructions in this thread, then installed the camera from here: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...ower-button-shutter-key-disable-low-batt.html

Now my gps works, camera works, bluetooth works, seems pretty good.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
The market won't install anything after countless times wiping then re-flashing CM7. I have tried both CM7 HBOOT and regular bravo HBOOT, tried installing Darktremor's A2SD and still just nothing. Please help!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
It's possibly down to the cache set in the ROM/HBOOT - it might be too lower to install large apps
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
I don't think it's a cache issue since he's running the Oxygen ROM..it's meant to run with the smaller cache. I have no idea what else it could be though and why a full wipe wouldn't clear the issue up. You are wiping all, including cache and dalvik, correct? Have you tried restoring a backup from when it worked?

And if you're running Oxygen, as your sig states, you don't need to flash an A2SD script..it's built into the ROM.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
But the cache is needed to download the app before installing it. If it's too small it won't install large apps. It's just a suggestion
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
I know it is, not saying that's wrong, but I know that, the way Oxygen is built, it installs apps differently. I'm not a dev, but I think it uses a cache on the SD card or something like that. The Oxygen Hboot has a very small cache and I've never had a problem installing any app from the market, including large installs.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:
Then it rules that out then!! :D
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
Though I just read that he's trying to flash CM7..so..oops. But CM7 also uses a cache on the SD card as opposed to the cache partition.

So have you tried wiping cache and dalvik as well? Or restoring a working backup? Tried any other ROMs?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
okay actually now i am using the Bravo HBOOT..i haven't updated my sig since i realised i prefer the more features of CM7
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
So have you done a full wipe? including cache and dalvik?

Have you tried restoring a working backup?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
yes and yes....
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordan.harris01:
Yea, I figured...have you tried clearing the market cache?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
Cleared cache and data, although i logged onto market.android.com and was able to push titanium backup, and Titanium backup pro. So by that i'm sure it can't be my account!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] status_six:
Delete market.apk and reinstall?

I'm sure I have seen some links and mirrors for installing separately from rom.

Just a guess!!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Matty Matt:
hmm okay, sounds like a plan!

Oh dear, I've decided to go on Dev-null as of last night and when i did flash it the market wouldn't work. So i left it till this morning and now it works! I think I will stay with dev-null for now and maybe go back onto CM7 some other time....I quite like dev-null! especially after flashing oxygen HBOOT! everything is installed on NAND, and so much space it's unbeleiveable!

Is there a file that I could extract before flashing CM7?

Does anyone know where it is on the defy and what it is called?

Thanks!
[Defy General] mikeyrave:
dosn't cm7 already have tethering??
[Defy General] Gusar321:
Only USB tethering. And even that doesn't work on the Defy because we can't install a custom kernel.

For wifi tethering, people usually advise to install "Wifi Tether for Root".

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vlad0t0:
So i got the Touch Diamond a couple of days ago and i am constantly messing around with it, however, i just can't get the GPS to work. The phone is second-hand and the GPs had worked so far, but it was wiped before i received so i installed iGO My Way 8, but it seems like the GPS just can't connect. My port is set to 4 in the system settings and to 4 in the iGO app. Speed 57600, but the GPS just doesn't connect (i think) The three squares on the right are green and blink, but the square next to the satellite icon is gray. The top bars have 5-6 numbers (i guess the satellites?) and the "Sky" area also detects some satellites, but there are yellow or red colored. Not much of an explanation, but i hope someone understands it and can help me. It would be great if someone tells me what app i need to take screenshots from the phone as it would be much easier to explain the problem via photos.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Bejan99:
I have the same problem and still don`t know what to do... I will install Garmin as soon as posible but hope there don`t have the same problem...

If some one know what we can do will be really good for us :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vlad0t0:
I contacted the old owner of the phone and got the solution: Find an internet connection and let AGPS download the information about the satellite positions and afterwards it will all work fine.

/Братле, пускаш AGPS с Интернет и го оставяш да се ъпдейтне, така сваля позициите на сателитите и след това GPS-a си работи нормално, обаче на всеки 6-7 дена трябва пак да го пускаш, за да вземе новата информация за сателитите/
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Bejan99:
And this how to turn it on? I have Quick GPS this is ?

Брат не знам как да го пусна бре ;)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] vlad0t0:
Programs > All Programs > Quick GPS > Download
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Bejan99:
I make this and before. Wont work here. Today I update the Quick GPS at the resturant and after that when I was outside start the program(is not Igo my way but is iGo8) and again cant fount anything.

Something else?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Bejan99:
I have iGo 8 and I still cant run the GPS in the phone. I test the same program to a Becker GPS for cars and there works perfectly.

Any ideas? I try this with the Quick GPS and the same... The lamp blinking only green and no satelites no nothing.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chivalryyyy:
Just wondering if anyone has orderd from ChitterChatter on tmobile and recieved there SGS2 yet?

Mine was meant to be here over a week ago but has been put back and delayed 3 times now,,,, grrr :0(
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD2492:
Mine has also been delayed. It's mostly annoying because they said they would have it for last Tuesday, which never happened. Then they said they'd call back when they have it in stock to send.

They called back today, still none in stock. I've paid £60 for the phone, so I may try and get compensated for it. At no point did they tell me that it was a pre-order.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TA123:
Same here. Upgraded to SGS2 on Sunday and was told that the phone would be in stock on Tuesday. Called them on Wednesday to be told a new date Thursday-Friday. Yesterday they told me a tale of the Japanese earthquake and how it affected SGS2 shipments and said that they would probably get hold of teh stock next week Tuesday-Wednesday. Though I am not holding my breath. What about other retailers/operators? Have people started getting SGS2 somewhere? I popped in a CPW shop but they did not have it either.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] poults:
Ordered mine last Sunday and said it would be with me by Wednesday. Didnt turn up so i phoned them and they tried to fob me off saying that i had just been left a voice mail by one of there colleagues which i hadnt. Couldnt tell me when the stock was due to arrive so i sent them a snotty email saying how unhappy i was with it and that i needed the phone for work by today and they phoned me back 10 mins later and i now have the phone sitting on my desk.

the code *#*#4636#*#* to access phone setting and to be able to change preferred network will not change for me . . . . its stuck on GSM auto . . . . I'd like to set it to WCDMA preferred . . . . everytime I change it, it reverts back to GSM auto - does anyone know how to change this??

I have an att device on Rogers network, and I cannot get data to work on 2G on 3G . . . I need 2G because that is the only signal i can pick up in the office . . .
[Atrix 4G General] Tylerjd:
Two completely seperate technologies. GSM is different than CDMA. If your phone doesn't have CDMA, it will not switch to that radio in the settings.
[Atrix 4G General] Inspiredwire:
WCDMA on the Atrix is UMTS (the replacement to GSM) and WCDMA is not the same as CDMA2000/EV-DO (Verizon, Sprint).

@acidsnow, if you want 2G, you want GSM, not WCMDA preferred.
[Atrix 4G General] y2whisper:
actally I don't believe WCDMA is referring to CDMA . I too have this problem and now have it set to 3G only (can be done in the wireless & networks settings) which on the testing menu shows as WCDMA only. Would still rather have WCDMA preferred but I guess since its not listed in that menu, it doesn't actually accept it as an option?
