I know right? I like L7 though...yours is good also!
[Captivate Android Development] gtiracer:
Maybe youre not understanding. You have two options to either a locked picture or one that covers all the home screens as you mentioned. I used the locked option , or at least on other roms it was locked and it blows the picture up too big.....example: I have a picture of my girlfriend or my son and its a head to toe shot. I select the frame around it and then when the home screen shows up, from the middle of the body up is out of the screen.The head is missing completely. What you pick in the frame when you set it up is not what shows up. It has always been in the past that what ever you see in the frame is what will be on the wall paper.

I know I don't post much on here but Ive had my cappy since September of last year and have flashed many roms from the early rooted eclairs , then froyos and now GB. I love your rom other wise but its seems to be a problem with GB ive never had before this. I use the same pictures ive used all along. I was just wondering if anyone else noticed it because if there are so many nice looking custom walls that many may not ever use their own pictures. But i like having family shots on my wall paper:D
[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
Sleepy but spot on. I flashed twice and nothing, then i remembered. LOL... appears I wasn't the only one. I imagine it is due to the different clockwork that Talon uses as opposed to stock Dipity. Had to do this also with batt mods from UOT.

So for anyone who flashes the update and nothing changes and using Talon...

mount /system

mount /data

in CWM > mounts and storage

flash update

wipe cache

wipe dalvik

reboot

Enjoi new awesomeness > LOL... no reboot loops here :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Oh yeah I knew that, just saying it's always and option to go back, or keep lights off. Who knows maybe ChanceM will make a addon that has lights off but keeps updates. Unlikely though.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Yeah with 6.4 I would loose 10% every hour. Now I lose roughly 10% every 2 hours. Virtually double battery life. And standby time is incredible.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Try and use the smaller option, but disable wallpaper scrolling if your using an alternative launcher that supports it. Worked for me.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
-- Missed the BT info, I remember reading something about it, but I thought that was on another kernel. lol.

-- Yeah, you are correct I believe. I think I only pulled the Bluedipity/Swype Pack and couldnt find anything for the Calender. Any ideas on how to get the S7 calender Bluedipity without installing the entire pack?

-- QuickOffice, yeah it was weird, it would showup for nothing even after I installed the S7 custom kitchen pack. But a manual install worked it out.

-- Just did install the S7 v2 pack. Fresh and off the phone. However, while I am writing this I realized a little fact. CWM was 3.(orange) not 2.5(green). Would that have an impact on this? I want to say I scanned something on this subject somewhere here in the forums.

TNX for the feedback.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Download Bluedipity on your computer, extract it and grab the calendar apk from system/app, I believe, and just replace on your phone.

And I think 3 post back has the direction to flash it.

Edit Nevermind i'll just paste them here. Just be sure to Thank the author back a couple of post.

So for anyone who flashes the update and nothing changes and using Talon...

mount /system

mount /data

in CWM > mounts and storage

flash update

wipe cache

wipe dalvik

reboot

Enjoi new awesomeness > LOL... no reboot loops here
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
Just seen. So, it can be done with CWM 3. with Talon? So you must mount the system AND data in/with CWM 3./Talon?

- in CWM > mounts and storage - meaning begin here?

Than flash v2?

Wipe cache/dalvik.

Re-Boot.
[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
hehe..

If it don't say build 2, regardless of how successful clockwork says it was .... it wasn't :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Yup, I guess so! But seriously, I think everyone switching kernels is just making it harder on themselves. The included kernel, although doesn't support oc/uv, is really good.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Rocking Bluedipity, Oh yeah!:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
ya, guess I'm sleepy too.... should be in order

CWM > mounts and storage

mount /system

flash update

wipe cache

wipe dalvik

reboot
[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
lol... yep...

Gonna wait for Bluedipity dialer update cuz this update broke theme due to vid call button removal. A small price to pay :D
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
You are right. I had my phone go into a freakin soft-boot dance while I was taking my final weds. Needless to say, I finished up and went right back on the pc and hit xda up for Serendipity kernel v2. It was very smooth and stable while I was on it. NO known issue, but I also wasnt looking to push it given I just had the failure earlier and was 30 miles away from home. lol. I was going to stay on deck with S7 v2 kernel till I got a tip on the modded Talon 0.2.1 with scripts. It is solid so far, minus the mentioned issues. And those are being de-bugged daily by myself or the developers themselves thru updates. I am loving my Cappy sitting on the throne of smarty'z right now. Everything else is a snail next to mine. lol.

[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
Not broke per say, the updated Phone.apk replaces the themed Phone.apk from Bluedipity, cant say for others themes. Works fine, just Green instead of my beloved Blue.

Did you flash back to stock??
[Captivate Android Development] WickedNite:
Hey Chance, I tried to put the Camera.apk & CameraFirmware.apk from GR to apps but it crashes after taking a picture. I wonder if the one included on the Kitchen would be working. Hmm.
[Captivate Android Development] BigBen:
I assume it's like the feature in another GB ROM (Continuum) that allows you to put in your SIP account information and use the service on your Cappy. It requires that you have an SIP account. It doesn't give you SIP as such, just a platform to use your already established SIP.

DISCLAIMER. I AM NOT RUNNING SERENDIPITY ON MY CAPTIVATE.

TICKLE MY THANKS BUTTON IF I HELPED.

>Did you flash back to stock??

Nope, just followed all the steps. I did pause to go through the brief stock gingerbread setup wizard, pick lang. etc, to give it a peek, then continued on to step 8.

Edit: Well technically I suppose the first 7 steps are flashing to stock Gingerbread, but I'm assuming you meant Odin3 One-Click to I897UCJF6, which I did not do.

[Captivate Android Development] BigBen:
I can't think of any reason UOT can't be used. It works for other GB ROMs. You may have to "Mount /Data" and "Mount /System" from the "mounts and storage" menu of CWM Recovery to get the .zip from UOT to "stick."

Just be sure to upload the two required files from the ROM to the UOT kitchen to "cook" your Gingerbread UOT mod: framework-res.apk AND the other one whose name I can't recall at the moment. The kitchen will tell you what you need to upload.

THANK ME IF I HELPED.

[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
I understand, I have been blue crazy for quite some time myself. The pull calender.apk from bluedipity and install with root manager did not work out. said it could not install. prob going to need it packed up for me and that is above my pay grade right now, still in "Cappy Pull-Ups". lol.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
No it didnt! I have both and the call button is still blue.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Don't install, replace it by coping and pasting over the original in system/app. and reboot although i don't think a reboot is necessary.
[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
how did ya pull that off.... zomg ... i was gonna go to bed ... now I'll be up getting it Blue :eek:

Funny thing at first I didn't even notice, then I was like hey ...wait a sec ...was that green? ....

** EDIT .... ahhh the main call is Blue still .... it's the after call that is green... The part that had Video call removed...

so this means ... I'm going to bed :)
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
I don't know how, but I tried it and the call button is still blue and the call end screen doesn't have video call.

EDIT: Maybe the order counts.

I flashed bluedipity, then bluedipity update 1.1, then serendipity VII build 2.
[Captivate Android Development] 13_:
Well I haven't flashed 1.1 yet so that may be the issue. Was gonna save it till tomorrow. Actually I WAS gonna save this update till tomorrow as well..... man it sucks being an addict.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
Ahhhh, see, I knew I was jumping the gun. lol. Deleted old TouchWizCalender.apk in system/apps. For some reason the Cappy didnt like it, started running sluggish and is re-booting as I write this. And that was the winner. S7 Bluedipity Calender. I am a very happy man. Thanks to you for one less bug. Now onto the BT deal or the Video call button deal. Hmm, I think neither. lol. Those are seeming to make more problems than are fixing. lol. Wait, maybe if you do the same and pull just the dialer apk out and paste. Let me know that and maybe I will be hardcore into turning the update into a working version. Let me know.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
LOL.. I know the feeling. Either way I left a comment on the Bluedipity page and there should be another update out tomorrow with the correct themeing for the new launcher, wallpapers, and call end screen. You should still flash 1.1 anyway.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Did you flash the lastest build. It should have taken care of the call end button. To get the BT to work your gonna have to switch kernels or wait it out til Talon fixes it. EDIT: Also, once Talon fixes it your gonna have to wait until the other guy (who modded it) fixes it.
[Captivate Android Development] neo_31591:
hey...i just flashed build 2 from stock 2.1...i followed the instructions exactly...everything went good....

but now just as i started connection to wi fi network it keeps on re booting like every 5-6 secs....any solutions to that???

Your phone keeps rebooting or wifi keeps turning on and off. If its the latter try turning wifi on through settings.

Isn't build 2 to be flashed over the build 1, You mentioned you flashed it over 2.1 stock ?
[Captivate Android Development] rpicaso:
I have to agree, but seems to have sped up after a few hours of use.
[Captivate Android Development] jswclw:
Build 2 is just an update to be flashed on top of Build 1. From 2.1, you've got to follow all the directions in post #1. Make sure you end up on kernel #3. You'll definitely want that...the kernels are in post #3 if you need it.
[Captivate Android Development] j_bravo14:
Came from build 1 then updated to Kernel 2, worked fine, no wifi reboot issues.

Then upgraded to Kernel 3. Started to have wifi issues not connecting instantly.

Flashed back to stock, then flashed Build 2. Found out that it came with Kernel 3. Tested wifi on and off issue and always get an instant reboot if i tried to turn wifi on the second time.

Going back to Build 1 Kernel 2. Seemed to work best for me.
[Captivate Android Development] jswclw:
Not having this issue here. Already had kernel #3 before flashing build 2. I do accosionally have to toggle wifi off and on to get connected at home if I've been out of range and then back again. Never reboots though.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
This happened to me once. I disabled lagfix, tried the Talon kernel, removed the Talon and put number 2 back on. After that I was in a boot loop which always ended in recovery. I tried restoring the backup I made before I started but with no luck. I clear both cache's.

I ended up formatting and installing again.

I looked through the thread to see if you found a fix or why it happened. If you did, could you PM me with it so I know. Not wanting to make this thread longer.
[Captivate Android Development] jerkysh:
I never turn off wifi, so I guess I didn't notice this problem

But I did, and that's what I got..
[Captivate Android Development] neo_31591:
ummm...i think we can flash build 2 directly from stock...or should i first go for build 1 and then go to build 2?

there is a separate update package( around 14mb ) for updating from build 1 to build 2.....i downloaded the whole build2...around 148mb.....

anyways...i re flashed it again from stock......this time i also flashed kernel #3...( just in case) ...its workin all good now...

maybe earlier was a bad flash or sumthn of that sort..

went through the same thing a few weeks back with my wife's phone after convincing her to get away from stock. (boy was my face red). lol

yep, make the jig and put it in download mode, on a side note, i couldn't get the jig to hit the pins down in the charging port, so i ended up having to shred one of my data cables to plug in so that i could use the jig to touch the ports sticking out of the mangled data cable plug. just a heads up.

This happens to me as well but rarely does it stay black...it just stays black for maybe 1-2 sec longer then usually but everything starts to work normal again.
