i was on serendipity 6.x and went into download mode by long pressing power and selecting download from the shutdown/restart menu. now whenever start the phone it always shows the

i can't do anything with it. i even tried heimdall and it fails to detect the device. did i totally brick my phone?

[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
Pull the battery. Wait a min. Reinsert the battery. Hold down vol and power at the same time. See if that gets you into DL mode.
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
Nope happens to me a lot.

All you do (by memory if I remember correctly) is open ODIN hold up and down volume keys and boom, download mode.

What happens is something happens during a flash and the usual, down volume + power button stops working, but the original way still works, volume and down.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Its been reported on many different threads that thirty minutes with the battery out enabled dl mode. Not sure if its sw related or hw.

Holding volume down, power, and HOME button can enable dl mode if the traditional method does not work.
[Captivate Android Development] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
I got the ! screen too

I simply held down both volume keys and the power and restarted again. Then it booted to recovery.

Why is the Samsung Music app so laggy?

Such a resource hog. And the other app that comes with the rom itself isn't very good since it doesn't read my album art.

Wish the lockscreen music buttons work with PowerAmp.

Big Problem

My widgets keep disappearing when ever I reboot.

So I thought this was a problem with my launcher (GO EX) so I decided to try it with the stock launcher. Still happened. So It must be something else. I'm assuming this is only me having this problem.

Any Idea how I can get my widgets to stick? Last resort is re-flash!
[Captivate Android Development] Johnny Paranoid:
PowerAmp displays it's own controls over the lock screen it you enable it.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Isnt it the aosp music app? The samsung one is attainable through the kitchen/add-on

[Captivate Android Development] DrGoodspeed:
try removing the battery, sd card, and sim card. open odin. wait a little and put the battery back in. hold down both volume buttons, and plug in the usb to a port on the motherboard. if it still doesnt work your only option may be to use a jig. good luck
[Captivate Android Development] edtonn:

What was the green color for the battery I've looked in and through the thread but can't find it?

I'm feeling serendipitous...
[Captivate Android Development] abee_13:

[Captivate Android Development] Killerfish1450:
I have read most of the whole thread and can't find where this question has been asked so here goes. I'm using trying to use ADW Launcher as my main launcher and when I apply all the settings they don't seem to stick and somehow reverts back to the stock rom launcher after a few minutes. I'm not having to reboot or anything for this change to happen. I will try to get a logcat of it in a few.

Edit: I'm not talking about widgets the whole dock bar and home icons revert back.
[Captivate Android Development] bigbooty:
After you launch adw, hit the home button. Make adw your default.
[Captivate Android Development] iRide113:
Just a quick question. Have you tried deleting the cache and all that for it? Also what about a complete uninstall, reboot, reinstall, app data clear?
[Captivate Android Development] rootmepls:
Exactly. I didn't know it was something Samsung did. I'm already getting used to it.
[Captivate Android Development] Lancez:
download link is broken, anyone has a mirror?
[Captivate Android Development] Killerfish1450:
Just tried and actually pressing the home button every time causes the error to happen instantly and it reverts back to the stock launcher.

Still does not stick, would it be bad just to delete the com.android.launcher?

To all those that are experincing modem issues:

I flashed I9000UGJL2 (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=876391 ). Just download and flash over your current -- no need for the dance. It's been amazing; I'm getting 3-4 bars in my basement and other places that previously provided a poor signal. Just got back to Southeastern Michigan from Houston, both provided unparalleled signal on JL2. Give it a go an continue enjoying Mikey and Chance's superlative work.

P.S. As a personal note, I've been using XDA to flash and manage devices (both those of others and my own) for over three years. These two developers are the best that I have ever encountered. Thank you.

EDIT: As a quick aside, my device has been sticking to HSPA and Band 850 like a Flash Addict to this thread.
[Captivate Android Development] DrGoodspeed:
if it is adw launcher that is not working then yes becuase you would have no launcher and not be able to do anything. did you try uninstalling and reinstalling it?
[Captivate Android Development] bigbooty:
Yeah, try that or download another launcher and it should then give you the option for setting a default.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Let me know if you find a solution too :)
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
Can anyone help me out here. I have around 300apps backed up in tibu...but somehow in batch option I can only see some 120 only. But again in verify backup I can see there are 300 apps. Also if I go to manually restore the apps there is no restore button! Now what should I do in order to get all my backups in batch restore.

Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] rfitts1:
are your widgets overlapping (even by a tiny bit) any other icons or widgets....if so they will not redo them selves after a reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Do you see a check mark next to the apps that are not being restored, or do you have a smiley face. A check mark means there is only data and a :) means that the app and data are backed up.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Nope they are just gone. MIA. I have to re put them everytime I turn on my phone. And it doesn't matter which launcher I use.
[Captivate Android Development] DrGoodspeed:
might be a bad flash cuz i am not having this problem using launcherpro
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
Ive had this problem before, just rreflash the Rom again, wipe cache and dalvik, in CWM, then reflash ROM over top, then set a widget then reboot to test, it should be fine

EDIT Any other GB build apart from JVB, has done this to me. I normally flash the ROM twice the first time. Seems to happen on JVH, JVO
[Captivate Android Development] rompus:
I just wanted to say thanks to Mikey Mike and ChanceM for the great ROM!

Very Smooth, very stable and battery life seems great so far. 17+ hours and still at 36%.
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Okay thanks. Should I disable Lag fix first before I re flash?
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
Okay this is strange as you have mentioned above I can only see acheck mark and not a :) but how is this possible when I have set to backup all user apps every night! Ideally there should be apes+data. This is the first time such a thing has happened with me :/

Now what is the resolution to this?
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
no dont need to, just wipe cache and dalvik. Should be fine, ive just done it myself, i just tried out MIUI, didnt like it, back to Serendipity 7!!
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
Sadly, there is no easy solution. Find each app in the market, install it from there, and restore data from tibu.
[Captivate Android Development] ppalbicke:
I use adw without issue. Use home switcher again to set default then lock desktop and reboot. Should stick after that
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
:( okay this means that I have some 40-50 mins of work to do now but by any chance can you tell me what might be causing the this...? ideally backup all user apps should backup apps + data right? :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] ppalbicke:
Before flashing on odin did you master clear? That would wipe apps
[Captivate Android Development] rfitts1:
i remember having problems once with my settings not sticking in adw. anderweb suggested deleting some certain folder that the initial settings were stored in because after a new flash they were being stored in a different location and thus not sticking....

long story short a reflash (and wipe) fixed my problem.

Speed?

After using CynogenMod since early March, I backed up the phone and applied Serendipity....seems very nice, boots fast.....but

I find it slow, back to the old days when I first got my Cappy with the lag, especially a lag when selecting the back button....

I select the back button and find myself waiting for response, no haptic feed back, sometimes a delay of 2 to 3 seconds....

I haven't even restored all my apps yet...

Does anyone have similar experiences?

Thx
[Captivate Android Development] edtonn:
+1 would love to see this. Preparing to re-flash to hopefully fix my widgets not sticking problem...will report back
[Captivate Android Development] Joecascio2000:
I re-flashed and my widgets don't go away anymore. I hope it stays that way. In the restoring process now.
[Captivate Android Development] rfitts1:
Sorry. I've used a mix of similar roms...grxx, continuum, mosaic. But after coming back to s7 I can honestly say its quick. I never wait for haptic feedback. It instantly responds... on my end at least.
[Captivate Android Development] mkr14:
This ROM is great as always!

I do have one issue though I have the issue with all of the 2.3.3 roms. There seems to be quite a performance decrease in FPSE, specifically in quality of sound. If I downgrade to Serendipity 6.4, it runs great.

Other than this issue I am experiencing I like this rom a lot better! Runs great!

Glad to hear it. Almost charged up here. Did you clear dalvik & cache?

Just going to post here rather than start a new thread, is there anyways that a replaced Digitizer could be draining my battery? I smashed my Digitizer a few months ago and replaced it with another one from another captivate.

[Captivate Android Development] Mantu13:
holy crap. what do you call moderate use? I would say I used my phone partially today. played about 10 minutes of plants vs. zombies, made a few 10ish minute calls and that's about it and my phone has lasted me about 10 hours before dying.

Are most people getting way better battery life then me?

[Captivate Android Development] gspears:
I had it backed up with TIB and used that to restore it. It hung up when I told it to restore program but when I pulled the battery and rebooted it did actually restore it. I then went in and restored the data only and all is well. I haven't had any issues so far, but I'm not a power user by any stretch.
[Captivate Android Development] gspears:
As I stated a couple of posts up, absolutely NO problems with it to this point. I've rearranged things, changed wallpaper, etc. and all's well.

I didn't see where Mikey mentioned that. What other stuff might it break Mikey? I'd be happy to test it for you. I did intall the circle battery mod that somebody posted and now I have my nice colored status bar back.

Choosing the backup folder in TiBu

Reinbeau, just in case you haven't already got it to work...

In the "new" TiBu directory-chooser:

* the Back button selects the parent folder

* tap a child folder to select/open it

* after you've selected/opened the folder you want to use for TiBu (e.g. /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/tibu ), you MUST hit the button labeled "Use the current folder"

Edit: ALSO, I usually find that after a wipe flash, and after re-setting up all the prefs in TiBu (including the backup directory), TiBu won't see/restore my backups until after a reboot.

So for me it's always:

flash

initial boot up

reboot into recovery

install TiBu zip in CWM recovery

boot normally

run TiBu and set all its prefs

reboot normally

restore

For everyone with album art working, do you have the album art in the same folder as your song? That might be why it's working and not because the art is embedded in the song file.
