possible issue

i just flashed and i have not been able to find service how do i fix
[Captivate Android Development] sjpn:
"-Disconnect USB, Pull battery, and reinsert battery

-Hold Volume Down button, and press Power button at the same time (phone should be in Download mode now)

-Open Odin> Select PIT, PDA, PHONE, CSC files in their respective places

(should look like this-- http://i56.tinypic.com/aax013.jpg)

-Reconnect USB, Press start and do not touch your phone until it reboots

We'll move to the next steps when you finish these..."

post #663

i'm having the same issue. after you connect via usb, shouldn't odin show something like "COM5 connected" or something like that?

If you're in Download Mode and connecting via front USB, try a rear USB port, or if you can a different computer. I know on some computers Odin doesn't like the front USB ports or certain machines.

Basic apps still there, pretty much like a fresh install accept the backup was made after everything was added.

Question

I think my question was confused with another so im gonna ask it clearly, there is prob a simple fix. I just flashed the actual rom and when I booted i cant find a signal can anyone help it just says no service. my last question is do i use the CWM2 Modem in that thread if it says froyo next to it?
[Captivate Android Development] Cdub5:
So I flashed this coming from apex 6.5, and after I flashed I did a nandroid restore on it from the 6.5 back up. Restore got stock on cwm.apk, so I pulled battery and when I reboot it's stuck on S7 start screen. I can get into download, so I'll fix this issue later. This was my first attempt to restore a nandroid bu. Did I do something wrong? Just don't want to make the mistake again after I reflash the rom.

Also, considering I had this rom up and running before the nandroid restore, can I reflash this rom with odin, using the S7 download from the website? Don't want to have to go back to stock and start from scratch if it's not necessary.
[Captivate Android Development] Demonic240:
I downloaded the voice dialer from the website but I think it's the one for froyo as it force closes when launched from a bluetooth.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
I'm not positive but u might have mixed boot loaders? Why did u restore a backup from a froyo rom?
[Captivate Android Development] androidRIOT:
Hey quick question..

Im currently running Continuum 5.5 with GB2.3.3. Anyways when I install this the install goes fine with no errors and starts to boot up. Once I get to the home screen I get stuck in a partial reboot loop meaning the phone doesnt actually fully reboot it just keeps switching between the serendipity boot screen and the home screen. Also the touch screen doesnt work. I tried reinstalling 3 or 4 times, did a factory reset and cleared out everything but still no luck. Any suggestions? Only thing i could think of is maybe it has to do with the different cwm versions the 2 roms use? Continuum is orange and this one is green.

Was about to give up on gingerbread then along comes serendipity and saves the day. Its fast and it just works and no gb bugs that other roms have. Thank thank you thank you. Donation coming soon as I cash my paycheck
[Captivate Android Development] Radukk:
Partition should be back to rfs from ext4(talon), and wipe data/cache before flashing.
[Captivate Android Development] Cdub5:
I'm sorry, your right Mbc663. I have 2 phones and I stupidly forgot the rom I was on was apex 6.5, a gb rom. Got my roms mixed up, my bad.
[Captivate Android Development] rfitts1:
Did you flash while still plugged into the usb? Bc that is a common problem and it causes people to have no signal.

And no froyo stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] ln100:
I came from Obssession (orange recovery) and had the same loops. I did the full install instructions and everything worked. I think it has to be installed from green recovery.

I'm suprised its not hard bricked actually
[Captivate Android Development] rfitts1:
@ pwnerman

Reflash with it not plugged in
[Captivate Android Development] pwnerman:
I did and its still not working could it be because of the modem? if thats a possibility which one of these do i use

Download for CWM2 (Froyo based ROMs) » modem_cwm2_bujv3.zip

Holy ****! - Netflix Works!!

Hey guys, I just wanted to share that Netflix is working 100% on my phone. I have attached the version that I am using.

Install it and upgrade it when it asks you too. Sign in and stream....enjoy!

Let me know if it works for you too.

[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
You should use the one with Gingerbread based ROMs.
[Captivate Android Development] pwnerman:
your not understanding this is a gingerbread modem but then it has CWM2 AND CWM3
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
it doesn't matter if your on cwm2.5. If your on cwm3 (orange text) then u can only use cwm3 zips.

[Captivate Android Development] pwnerman:
Ive flashed JVE
[Captivate Android Development] Cdub5:
@mbc663. I reposted, and corrected myself. I said the wrong rom. As I understand, nandroid are only system images and don't contain bootloaders. Either way I was running a restore from a GB rom to a gb rom.
[Captivate Android Development] rfitts1:
you could always start from step one one the serendipity7 website...unless of course you've done that already.
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
You can flash CW3 based files with CW2 (CW2.5.x) but not CW2 based files with CW3. Also, it's mentioned in the description that CW2 (Froyo) and CW3 (Gingerbread). I know it's a bit confusing for some people. But why it's that way, because, prior to i9000 based Gingerbread ROM, there was only MIUI and CM7, and both uses CW3. So at that time it was easy to differentiate.

Again don't get confused just by reading CW3, there's also a mention of Froyo and Gingerbread as well in the description.

I hope this will help someone else who's confused about which one to flash. :o

I have already done that myself today. Now I'm getting the 850.

Enjoy.
[Captivate Android Development] pwnerman:
Im sorry but what are you talking about i already did all this and im on the rom i got signal when i was on stock gingerbread why not now?
[Captivate Android Development] rootmepls:
I have one strange thing going on. Not really an issue just wondered if anyone noticed it or had it happen.

In the drop down notification toggles the "Silent Mode" button is backwards. To turn silent mode on I click the toggle off and to turn sound back on I toggle it off. Works but backwards from what I'm used to.

Only real weird behavior I've seen so far.
[Captivate Android Development] hoopas:
+1 on that too. I flashed JP9, no dice. Freaked out alittle to be honest when i had no signal for like an hour lol. Gonna start from stratch i guess. Maybe its a fluke:eek:
[Captivate Android Development] rfitts1:
sorry boss. i dont know what to tell you. the only time i booted with no signal was bc i had the usb plugged in during flash.
[Captivate Android Development] DRShockie:
Continuous scrolling

Just wondering :o is there is a setting to get the web browser to have a smoother and continuous scrolling function >> instead of starting and stopping every few sentences.

Its not a big deal but I hate it....Thanks for any advice.
[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
I think what he is telling you is that if you have tried to resolve your issue and have been unsuccessful, then instead of killing yourself and flashing over9000 modems, just go through the whole process again. Then if you have a problem that's a different story. It's highly possible you got a bad download or bad flash and it's borked and flashing modems all day and night wont fix the other errors.

So why not clear cache , clear dalvik, re-flash the whole Rom and see how that works.
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
I believe that is normal for Gingerbread.
[Captivate Android Development] RuizGT:

@mikeymike

Great choice of modem and a thank you for all your work especially with home button fixes. May have to give this a whirl soon.

Question. Can anyone create a CWM3 flashable BOOT screen? not the bootanimation....I saw the link you have posted involves odin and file manipulation renaming relocating etc...not willing to risk a bad flash to change a screen we see for 2 seconds AND it just seems a bit involved lol dont wanna mess it up....but the galaxy i9000 thing just isnt right.

Any idea?
[Captivate Android Development] Reynaldinho111:
Honestly its real easy to do, just follow instructions and you'll be fine.

Downloading 'dipity 7 now, thankyou Mikey!
[Captivate Android Development] sethjamto:
Happened to me too. Before the initial instructions were edited, I started from step 1 while running GR12. Got stuck in the same place, but luckily I can get back into download mode after a battery pull. I'm redownloading the file now and will try again!

EDIT:

Re-downloaded the new file and it worked great! Now flashing S7!
[Captivate Android Development] streetsmart999:
Which one (kernel) are u using? Please let me know.. Cos second time I downloaded Im Stuck. Thanks in advance

I believe BLN will get rid of it if you want (I also think there is a option for it, just can't remember where at).
[Captivate Android Development] krips2003:
Ok, here you go. This is what I did.

Put all the 3 modems 'CWM3 based' (UGJL2,BVJJPG, and tubjv6) on sdcard.

1. Reboot into recovery and flashed UGJL2

2. Once done, select reboot

3. Dial *#2263#

4. Select WCDMA and select 850mhz.

5. Reboot into recovery and flash BVJJPG

6. Once done, select reboot.

7. Dial *#0011#

8. Verify that 850mhz is enabled.

9. Reboot into recovery and flash tubjv6

10. Once done, select reboot.

11. Dial *#0011#

12. Verify that 850mhz is enabled. (Side note: If you don't see 850mhz here, you are out of luck)

'Once you verfified 850mhz above, go back into the dialer and enter *#2263# and select automatic then select menu> back. Then select combi bands and then select to add wcdma850. Now select menu>back and verify the * is next to all bands. IF so Press the back to to exit and let the modem do its job'

If it still doesn't fix your issue, you might need to reflash the ROM and follow the above procedure again.

Once again great work fellas. Chance, donation coming your way. My only complaint which isn't rom related is the lowest brightness level. Just hit 10 percent battery left and it went into an even dimmer setting which I assume is kernel related. Wish I could have it this low all the time.

[Captivate Android Development] androidRIOT:
Well i tried flashing from cw2 and cw3 and neither stop the boot loop.

One thing I did notice though is when it boots up I don't get asked for my sim card pin number. If I remove the sim card then it loads up normally. I just can't do anything without a card in the phone lol.
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
anyway to have a video play on boot up?

Know it sounds a little silly, just wondering if its possible?
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
A couple people early on said that it cannot be flashed if you have your sim card locked. Unlock in froyo, repeat instructions,.then u can lock it once your on gb.
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
From these great instructions, stop here @ 850 and see if you have a signal. You should have something. If so continue from step 4

[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Yeah but wipe cache and dalvik first. Thats what UOT says, I'm sure you'll be fine if you just flash though!

I flashed from Continuum, cwm3, to this, into a boot loop, I booted into recovery, blue now, not Continuum's orange, and REFLASHED serendipity 7!!! And it worked!! Amazing!
