Then explain why I'm getting like 8 hours on minimal use? I know I am going to have to wait a couple of days to see what is going on, but really.

Not to mention people are telling me that they can barely hear me.

I don't know but I may have to go back to the original Seerendipity...that worked great for me.

You have to find a modem you like regardless of ROM.

[Captivate Android Development] kegobeer:
Restoring apps and data can cause it (there are a few people that have had the same issue with battery drain after restoring apps). Did you happen to restore anything after you flashed VII? You definitely don't want to restore anything you installed under 6.4. There are also a couple of apps that have caused some battery drain - you should review the entire thread and see what you can find out about that.

The modem you are using can also cause battery drain, especially if it's having trouble maintaining signal strength. If 6.4 worked great, you might want to try the JK4 modem, as it came with 6.4.

I would like to change my modem to JK4, how would I go about doing this? I have the zip file but I can't install it through the orange CWM.
[Captivate Android Development] BertMor:
Thanks. I froze Maps 5.6 (?) because it was @ 28%! Yikes. After flashing all I did was restore my apps from TiBu. Did not restore system data.

I am clueless as to how or what modem to use. I am at my technological horizon event as it is with flashing ROM's! Where would I even get JK4? Does it even work with SVII b2 k4?

I too have SMS appearing in the call log, I'm on Build 2. The only add-ons I installed were from the kitchen; looking at the kitchen zip file, nothing phone-related was touched. Are SMS removed out of the box and a few of us are just having issues, or is it not yet a feature?
[Captivate Android Development] closeshave2:
When I flashed kernel #4, I lost Voodoo sound. This happened on the previous build when I flashed kernel #2 as well. I tried re-flashing the kernel -- no luck. I tried disabling the lagfix and then re-flashing, still no luck. And before anybody suggests, yes, I wiped both the cache partition and the dalvik cache prior to flashing the kernel.

When I launch the voodoo control app, it tells me that the module needs to be loaded and that the device or kernel version isn't supported.

I've been searching through this thread for a couple of days and I haven't found anything related to this issue. Am I the only one with this problem??

It's not the end of the world, mind you... But I do love me some voodoo sound action! Anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks!!

First I reflashed S VII build one, then I tried to flash Build update 2 No go. Then I did kernel 2 and retried..same thing. so I finished reflashing kernels 3 and then 4 and tried update 2 and still got the same status 7 error.

I wiped Davlik before and after all this, as well as system cache.

A quick rundown-

The word ROM is typically used in the smartphone world to refer to the base firmware of a device as a package. The three separate distinct parts of a ROM are the kernel, the modem (or radio) firmware, and the rest of the OS, commonly referred-to as the ROM. The base operating system, the firmware that runs the radios for voice, data, GPS, FM radio, bluetooth, etc. in the phone (often referred to as the 'radio' or 'modem' component of the firmware), plus any software that the person or company that created the 'ROM' decided to include all to comprise a ROM.

Sorry if this sounds basic but are you flashing tar files with Odin (phone in download) and zip files from recovery with CWM?
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
I know a little off topic but reading on the post for the "official"GB leak for captivate unless mikey/chance work some magic on it I'm not going anywhere with it (I see mikey is monitoring the post) , sounds like not much benefit changing over in my opinion -

I'm sure we will see some of the stuff from it being tweaked into S-7 though, only making S-7 better
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Kernel 4 seems to have fixed the charge drain bug for me. I used to drop to 85 when unplugging from a long charge. Now it behaves like 6.4 did. Also no problems with the updated maps so far (5.6.0).

Drop this kernel into the Serendipity #4 kernel zip and and install in recovery, then you will have BLN. H3llstorm posted that in the kernel thread yesterday, I tried it and it works and the kernel is working very well with Dipity VII.

I just want to say a big thank you to the developers and the community. This is the first rom I have ever flashed. Despite all of the negative hype and misinformation about gingerbread on the captivate, I have found this to be a very stable, polished, full featured rom. It has added much more smoothness and functionality to the phone.

Haters stop hating and thanks again.

Still no love on the SMS filling up the call logs? Anybody? Pleeeeese?

Is this a reflash thing?

Come to think of it, this might have started when I flashed the Samsung SMS program from the kitchen. Can you unflash the kitchen stuff?
[Captivate Android Development] cole26:
Running B#2, K#4, GO Launcher.

I have three times now, encountered the capacative buttons and screen not responding. Well, actually, they respond to touch (see the light go out and I think I can feel a bit of feedback) but nothing happens, the screen does nothing. Each time I was in an app, let the screen go off, and when I came back, I couldn't exit the app (Words w/Friends, Gmail, Dolphin browser. Hardware buttons work still work, as does the orientation sensor. Anyone else experience this?
[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
That has to do with the LogsProvider.apk. If you can find a Rom that has that fixed, try swapping it.
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
Only thing I can think of (if you already tried settings or view by)

then try re-flashing S-7, starting from scratch without the Samsung sms
[Captivate Android Development] reinbeau:
Probably right, I started to notice them after I flashed that, too. I don't mind, though, I use aTAKEphONE, so I don't see the native call log much.
[Captivate Android Development] BertMor:
Yes build 2, kernel 4. And the included modem. Minimal means a few phone calls a day almost no texting, some games while hanging out stuff like that.

Now when people are calling me, it doesn't ring, goes straight to voicemail. Oy!
[Captivate Android Development] mod777:
I flashed the samsung sms app from the kitchen as well and do not have sms in call logs. If I was you, I would pull the logprovider and sms app from the rom zip and replace the ones on your phone with those. That's the quickest way without having to reflash and redo everything.

If you don't know how to do that. You would use root explorer or similiar app and browse to the system > app folder and overwrite the old apps there - or you could push the apps with adb.
[Captivate Android Development] pittsm:
I'd definately try a new modem. Start with jk4 and see if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Using Build 2, Kernel 4 with no addons, sms does not go to my call log, so I suspect it is something non-Mikey/Change built in theme/system app that is causing your problem.

You've got a bad flash, I'd redownload and reflash.

i have no sms in call log since build 2. my last sms that is on the phone right now which is both in "recent" and "history" date 06/07/11. I dont have any thing from sms that stored in the phone since then
[Captivate Android Development] BertMor:
I'm not so sure....I've already re-d/l'ed and re-flashed. I installed JK4 and at least thephone picked up immediately. Now lets see the battery drain.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Quick report on battery, etc.

My last 3 battery cycles have been similar, so I'll give some details. I'm currently at 5h 5m on battery at 43%. Display on for 2h 1m at 42% total usage. Voice calls at 15% AOS at 7%. on Maps 5.6.0. I've been playing music or messing with stuff a lot today, and this is during the day, so I have 2 email accounts checking every 15 minutes. This is in line with what I was getting on S6.4.
[Captivate Android Development] gspears:
Do the logprovider.apk and the sms.apk go together? In other words, can I just replace the logprovider.apk without the sms.apk or will that break something?
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
Personally I wouldn't even touch it
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
I'm gonna play around to see if I can resolve the logs issue, I'll let you know. ;)

Another question for those who've dealt with it. Non-DRM iTunes AAC files (m4a) extension played fine on Samsung music player in Froyo, but now don't play and give an error message. Anyone else have this issue or heard of it?
[Captivate Android Development] rootmepls:
My phone was doing that with the included modem also. Switched to JK4 the week this came out and smooth sailing ever since.
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
Not an answer, but a possible workaround: Have you tried running them through a batch converter?
[Captivate Android Development] olo567:
Replaced both LogsProvider and Mms with stock ROM versions, no SMS in call logs. Replaced with Samsung Mms, SMS back in call logs. Something in LogsProvider is picking up SMS from Samsung Mms...

Edit: Replaced with LogsProvider from Continuum, new SMS don't appear in call log! I had to redo my widgets on my launcher, though.

Well of course I could do that. But converting music from one lossy format to another is not a good thing. I'd sooner switch to a 3rd party music player or find the songs in another format originally.
[Captivate Android Development] closeshave2:
Yes, I do. Is that a problem?
[Captivate Android Development] Dungeon47:
I've been using PowerAmp for months and plays pretty much anything I throw at it. There's a trial version.

I was using Mixzing, but got tired of waiting every time I started the app, so I switched to the Amazon Music app, which also has lock screen controls.

Chance, maybe a bad ROM download? But when I flashed Build 2 again (after trying out 2.3.4 again), and when I updated the kernel to #4... soft brick (phone icon - caution triangle - computer icon). Has happened twice in the last 2 hours.

Any advice? Flashing #3 and down works perfectly.
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Not to complain or anything, but it seems as though my battery is draining faster ever since the build 2 update. Before I was going 18 hours and only using about 40%. Now I'm lucky if the battery lasts the entire 18 hours. I haven't changed any settings or usage habits. I calibrated and let it drain and full charge and waited a couple days. Same after kernel 4 update. Just sitting idly with the screen off for 6 hours and 25% is gone. Using JK4 modem cause it gives me the best reception in my area. JV6 drains battery even faster. Obviously draining faster on 3G/HSPA than on Wi-Fi. Don't know what to make of it.

If you haven't already:

Update Maps to 5.6.0. Power off, pull battery for 1min, put it back in and go.

If you still have trouble, charge to full, wipe battery stats, drain to dead (make sure you plug in immediately after automatic shutoff), charge to full, use as normal.

EDIT AGAIN: :) - I had the huffington post running alll dayyy long too lol... whooops!
[Captivate Android Development] kegobeer:
If you have bad battery life, consider trying a different modem and also make sure you didn't restore any data if you restored apps (and if you came from 6.4, you might consider not restoring any apps). Personally I'd try a different modem (JK4 came with 6.4) and then if battery drain doesn't improve, do a master clear and don't restore any apps - install one at a time from the market to determine which one is causing the problem.
[Captivate Android Development] kegobeer:
Since you came from froyo, I wouldn't restore anything. I'd install from the market and then once things are running smoothly, make a gingerbread backup. Just do a master clear from CWM - no need to reflash.

For me it has been.

[Captivate Android Development] Nick James:
Master clear doesn't wipe the built in SD card right?
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
Wipes everything. Basically makes it like you just took it out the box (except it keeps whatever your base is - Gingerbread, Froyo, Eclair, etc).
[Captivate Android Development] Nick James:
I dont see a master clear option but I do see factory reset/wipe- sounds like the same thing?
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
You need to start using the search button up there a little bit buddy. ;)

Master clear happens through Odin, but yes Factory reset/wipe is the same thing but does not always clear everything off 100% (even though it has always worked for me, some people say it doesn't).

You can also wipe everything by booting into recovery and from CWM go and select Wipe Data/Factory Reset.
[Captivate Android Development] Nick James:
Dont tell me what to start doing. I've used master clear before (6.4) through Odin however he said that it was in CWM- I was trying to get clarification, buddy :o

It is the install pack of the SGSII camera here.

Clear cache and dalvik

mount system and data

install zip

system reboot

dont play with SGSII Cam just yet

Go to recovery(CWM3)

fix permissions

Reboot system

That is what worked for me thus far and have hit a serious snag. I will have plenty of time to test the cam out since i am taking the family to six flags tomm.

Again, hope this helps anyone searching for an SGSII cam install kit. It was mentioned several pages back and never followed thru by anyone.

Can anyone list the breakdown of compatible modems for this rom, and the progression we should use when trying to pick a rom?

I know that an increase in the alpha means a big revision, and an increase in the number is a minor revision, but I have a tough time figuring out which modems are capable for which roms. Part of this comes from people using the JK4 modem, which I believe is a froyo 2.2 modem, on a Gingerbread 2.3 rom like serendipity.
