Build 3

Replaced i9000 Camera app with Captivate Camera app (removes front facing camera, etc.)

Replaced i9000 Dialer with Captivate Dialer (adds standard dial tones)

Bug Fixes

Info:

Serendipity Kernel Build# 4.1:

Grab the .zip and flash via CWM

Change Log:

If you would like to remove the i9000 boot screen and have a clean booting visual experience I have provided below a package from MobileTechVideos.com and a custom logo. You need to download this to a computer and extract the contents! NOT CWM FLASHABLE!!

I'm on Mosaic III right now with talon 0.2.1 kernel. Should I convert back to RFS or xcal's kernel before flashing Serendipity 7?
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
Here is the Samsung one if that is what you are looking for.

Just copy to your system/applications folder.
[Captivate Android Development] KTownGT:
Just flashed. Everything looks great so far!!

Quick Question: After flashing the kernel which is in the installation package(Reorient 1.1), do I need to flash the newer kernel? Or does installing the ROM through CWM flash a newer kernel?

[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
had this rom running now for 3 hours, its easily the best gb rom available very smooth, and a great wallpaper to greet you! battery life seems good to so far, it was worth the wait! also I would like to add, anyone first time flashing a gb rom, the instructions couldn't be any easier, seems like Amir of people are to lazy to read instructions, and Just ask the same questions over and over, you have one of the best research tools at your fingertips, just use it (google, xda). I can understand why sometimes Devs seem a little peeved, same questions over and over!!
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
That camera is amazing :) not sure why it wasn't included.

Its amazing how quick my phone is running right now. Even the xda app is quicker. It feels as if another processor was added. Again...good work fellas. Dons heading both your way soon.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
IF you have to ask that question, I would wait for a few more pages of experiences. I have not found a GB ROM on 2.3.3 that has been as stable as any Froyo ROM yet. I have flashed Continuum, GR 9-12, Apex, Mosaic,Obsession, on and on...Charging Issues and a few other things pop up from time to time. I have flashed sometimes a few times a day to "correct" an issue or find a kenel or modem that might be stable. They all seemed to run fine at first. Issues are discovered as you use the ROMS for awhile.

GB is promising but I think it will take 2.3.4 to iron out some basic issues that most GB ROMs are having.

GB is not full stability nor is it necessarily all that much faster than a well developed Froyo i9000 ROM. For me anyway Stability is important. GB is not quite there yet on the Captivate. But I am keeping up with all of them hoping to rad a few pages of ZERO issues....LOL

For now I'm trying DG's Cog for a well deserved rest from flashing..I did find flashing an i9000 ROM after GB gave me "insufficient space" issues when updating apps..Still working that one out
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
What Camera? The one from GR?
[Captivate Android Development] BigBen:
You can just put the ROM's .zip on your SD card and flash it from CWM 3 mate. No need to convert to RFS or change kernels. Start from I think it's step 13 on the revised instruction sheet, "for people that already have a GB ROM installed" or something like that.

If you want to flash the whole package, with the Xcal kernel that comes with it, just install the kernel's .tar with ODIN, then flash the ROM .zip from your SD card.

Please consult the instructions that come in the Installation package. My advice may be lacking in detail.

CORRECTION: FOLLOW THE INSTRUCITONS THAT ARE GIVEN ON THE DOWNLOAD PAGE OF THE ROM'S WEBSITE.

Cheers

Change updates/zImage, updates/modem.bin and replace all occurrences of SGH-I897 with GT-I9000 in system/build.prop prior to flashing (best use 7zip for modifying and notepad++/vim/emacs for the build.prop edits).

Have been running it on my i9000 for 5 days now with no issues using speedmod's latest kernel and JVO modem.
[Captivate Android Development] :
New 3.0 Kernel is awesome, thanks Mikey and Chance.

B#3

I too just wanted to say nice job as B#3 did take care of a few quirks on my phone and is running even better than before.

We all know that modems can be both phone/rom/kernal/region specific, but though I would just mention I am in the Chicago area and switched back to the jk4 modem and improved my speed and clarity. Battery drain has been a bit more, but worth it.

On 6.4 KC1 was my choice, but when flashed on S7, signal strength was horrible. Oh well, just a note for anyone thinking about a switch.... we now return you to your regularly scheduled feedback.....

Good luck!

Though I cannot flash it through odin for some reason... keeps bombing... I got 2.3.4 running nicely though. Must be doing something wrong each time I try to flash the kernel odin fails like 80% of the way through, and takes the who install w/ it...
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
Still would like a source, though.
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
Ahh, I here ya, sorry! Can't wait till you get your hands on some though... S7 has been the best GB rom next to Debus on the i9000 forum!

They say its on Samsumg Firmwares now!
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
It is, that's where I downloaded it. Also why I didn't see any kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
Yea, looks like the kernel for i897 doesn't work... I tried to flash via odin and killed the install... I used odin to flash the rooted i9000, got SU, installed SGS Kernel Flasher, and SGS KF fails because "kernel too big"

[Captivate Android Development] ctleng76:
I don't think this is a Serendipity issue. I have seen this with every 2.3.3 ROM I have tried so far. Another common issue I have noticed with all 2.3.3 ROMs is that the screen does not stay awake when in car mode. With Froyo and Eclair the screen would stay awake in car mode no matter which app you were running at the time.

i think i had a bad flash or bad download of sVII. either way im going to wipe and reflash. should i start from the beginning of the instructions or start on step 13? i think im going to flash back to stock and master clear. my guess would be that if im going from stock to sVII then start at the beginning of destructions. just need some clarification....
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Yes, if you go stock you have to load the GB bootloader again. If you are just re-flashing S7 in CWM, you don't need to go back to stock or do bootloaders.

Flashing question

Im gonna ask this here because this tread is awesome but im on serendipity 7 right now which is a JVO rom. What would i have to do if I ever wanted to try out a JV9 or a JVH rom? or could i just boot into recovery and flash it
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Once your on gb your good to go. Kernel compatibility is what you need to be looking for. Worst case if the kernel isn't compatible with the rom you'll be stuck with a boot loop.
[Captivate Android Development] pwnerman:
dumb question but if i would get in a boot loop i can just pull out the battery use my usb jig i got and flash the right kernel? also if i would go to a new rom would everything on my phone be safe or should i move it off first
[Captivate Android Development] astrocrep:
Usually, Usually... a boot loop will not prevent you from just getting into download mode and using odin to flash the proper kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
As my old pappy would say, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
[Captivate Android Development] monoespacial:
Hi, I'm still on 6.4 but I've been thinking about changing to v7. I've read many people with wifi and battery leak issues when using this Rom. I really need a stable Rom because I use the phone for my work. Would you guys recommend I stay on 6.4 and wait for v7 to have no issues or jump to v7 right away? Any mayor advantage to being on gingerbread?
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Wifi may be a problem although mine has been stable. As for battery, I don't think anyone has complianed about that. Just switch, its worth it. Just make sure to flash the lastest kernel in post 3 afterwards.
[Captivate Android Development] pwnerman:
master clear

how to you master clear a gingerbread rom without going back to 2.1
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
You can also hit up bluedipity and download one. In the themes thread.

Actually, I'm not sure if you can use just the battery and but the theme. Make a nandroid backup and test it though.

i also would like to factory reset and reflash sVII because i believe have a bad flash. i did the factory>privacy method and it seems to have wiped all user data and still have plain jane sVII on there. now i would like to flash back to stock then reflash to sVII again. odin 897UCJf6-final-OCD-REV0.exe while holding both volume buttons and pluggin in usb doesnt recognise my phone as it did before. i cant figure out how or if i can flash back to stock 2.1 with odin3 1.7. does it just flash stock 2.3.3? 3 button combo has always worked for me in the past.

whats the best way to completely wipe>stock>sVII for me if im alrady running sVII?

Why would you go back to stock?

Just redownload, and reflash via CWM.

im not completely sure.. heh. i just want to start from scratch and completely clean so i can have the smallest possibility for errors. i am all for redownloading and reflashing if thats all it takes. ive been known to make things more complicated than they really are:p
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
Easiest way to have the smallest possibilities of errors is to do the least amount of things... ;)

Going back to stock means you need to re add the GB bootloaders where this way, you do a factory reset and then just reinstall Dipity over it!

On the third post of the first page! Just came out and sooooo much better than #2 :)
[Captivate Android Development] sethjamto:
Things are definitely better for me today as far as battery goes! After reverting the Google Maps from 5.5 back to 5.2.1, swapping to JK4, and then today flashing the #3 kernel, I can honestly say that the battery life has improved a BUNCH!

...now if this thing would just fetch a beer for me out of the fridge, it would be GREAT! Mikey....any chance of incorporating that into an update??
[Captivate Android Development] phishie:
Oh d'oh! I kept checking the weebly page expecting to see updates there.

It's ok to flash the #3 kernel over my current install with recovery without starting over fresh, right?
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
Just download, put on phone, reboot into CMW, and install from there :)
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Yes. Just flash with CWM. #3 kernel has more RAM, which will help with launchers unloading and having to reload after apps.
[Captivate Android Development] phishie:
Yup that makes sense. Would also explain the "Low Memory" errors I was getting with the Engadget app.
[Captivate Android Development] phishie:
Thanks boss, will do that right after I stick JK4 in there too!

Side question.. are Modems labeled as "Froyo" or "Gingerbread" simply because that's what firmware they were launched with? Not because of compatability?
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
No problem! :)

Just me, not sure about others but JK4 was just

okay

Is anybody else that's using launcherpro having launcherpro reset each time you press the home button after opening an app? Every time I press the home button I have to wait for all my homescreens to load again as if the phone was just rebooted.

Also, is anybody having issues with downloading files from dropbox? Sometimes it just hangs at 0kb downloaded for me and doesn't allow me to download anything until I reboot the phone.

Bad flash or is anybody else having strange little issues?
