Samsung Keyboard

Hi LL,

Is there any known issue with Samsung Keyboard? I noticed that it was not included in this ROM. I manuallly copied AxT9IME.apk from Cognition 4.5.3 (Froyo KB1 based ROM) and put it in /system/app. I can select the keyboard as input method, but it FC immediately. Anyway to get Samsung Keyboard in this ROM?

This ROM is great!

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] pandakh:
to install themes i just flash thru cwm as usual?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Thanks.

Maybe some lib files are missing for the keyboard.

I suggest you to use swiftkey x (BEST KEYBOARD ON EARTH)

Yes Panda haha ;)
[Captivate Android Development] momulah:
Nevemind! Whats the best kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
The one included in this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] geeve420:
running 2.5 right now and what a great ROM! Thank you for your hard work!! A donation will be coming for sure.

One bug (or me being stupid) I add direct dial shortcuts and go through and put my apps on the home screens and when I plug in to transfer files or reboot, everything but my Widgets and one direct dial shortcut disapear. I am using the TW launcher. Any thoughts?

Thanks

Geeve
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Is the twlauncher you using on phone storage?
[Captivate Android Development] geeve420:
Damn, Thanks for the fast reply!!! Should be, I chose it from the list when I first booted the ROM and chose it as my default :confused: (I will admit this is my first flash and I am a Noob)

Edit: it shows in "all applications", but it is not listed in external sd.

Edit2: the TW4Launcher.apk is sitting in /system/app
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Did you wipe data and factory reset before flashing?

Perhaps a reflash might fix that issue.
[Captivate Android Development] geeve420:
Yeah I cleared data/factory reset, cleared the cache etc.

I went into sgs tools and upgraded tw through there with CrushD's. It works now. I thought about a reflash and I may yet, but for now all is good with this TW Launcher :) Thanks and again Great Work!!!!

Geeve
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Awesome, and you re welcome
[Captivate Android Development] devilzdrone:
hey,

a noob here dev, plz help me, i am currently using a 2.3.4 gt-i9000 sensation rom after foll some wild directions on my captivate, and the memory sucks, i always have around 60-90 mb of free mem evn after countless no. of clear mem in task manager,

i really want to get back to 2.2 rom with great batt life, and after endless debate between custom and stock, every page i search gets back to fasty 2.5, i seen some comments and the dev here is very friendly, so my ques is simply how do i get back to this rom from the 2.3.4 i9000 rom iam using. plz do elaborate and spare me a lil time dev, i do need the help.

p.s --the major prob iam having is tat after coming back to stock jf6 now , the kies mini now is not recognising my device and saying it is a unregistered device so i cant go to 2.2 kb1 rom now

Thank you vry much
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
If your phone is good with Odin, then use it to go back to stock.
[Captivate Android Development] geeve420:
Hey LL89,

I uninstalled the SE Launcher and the Windows style launcher. I kinda want to play around with them now. Any way to get them back?

Geeve

Edit: Never mind, I extracted the apks from the Fasty zip file.
[Captivate Android Development] cell2011:
Which launcher is the best for battery life?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I think twlauncher
[Captivate Android Development] cell2011:
Cool ty yes im new at all this esp coming from droid and hero but i will only use clockwork and rom for this stuff. So im glad i can. Is the kernel fast enough on here with voltage control?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes, its pretty smooth. You can also overclock to make it faster.
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
am on Fasty 2.0,

just want to know if its better to go to 2.5 or which Fasty to upgrade to that can give me most stable and best battery life,

was on 2.0 for the longest time but seems its now eats up more battery than before, or should I just re-flash?

many thanks,
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes,you can upgrade. Also recalibrate your battery.
[Captivate Android Development] PghPittViper:
To Lostlogic89...

I think this may be the rom for me byt I am very hesitant to try it. If you could help me, point me in the direction to get all of the files that I need to flash thru odin, and the names of the files and how specifically to flash .

I currently have a captivated, upgraded to 2.1 plus, whatever that means. I tried to flasy darky but nothing worked right.

In exchange for this help, I am willing to give you a healthy donation. for real

Please respone...

Check your pm
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
just wonder I can't find the maps on Fasty 2.5, where is it or how to get it? also fonts too fancy & small, how can we get the default style?

no need of Gingerbread but prefer a most stable and long lasting battery rom, is this the one I need?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
You can download maps from the market.

Go to settings, display,font,then chose the one you want.

You can try this or the kk1 edition for good battery.
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
thanks a lot, but can't find maps on the market, any hint why?

so KK1 is the best daily Ginger ROM? I should back to stock then flash ginger rom then KK1 Fasty?

is GPS working with KK1 Fasty?

TIA
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Are you located in the US? If not download and use market enable to be able to download maps from the market.

I tweaked the GPS on kk1 to give instant lock.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
.

I was planning on doing so , once i take care of some things haha.

EDIT : Quick question guys Do you like the status bar this way or just the original ?
[Captivate Android Development] wingman_214:
The normal status bar looks better. I like it more simple.
[Captivate Android Development] Superalpaca:
I think a Status Bar with the background like that looks sort of awkward unless everything (buttons, etc) is matched to follow that look.
[Captivate Android Development] alme1304:
hey, right now I'm using cognition. The problem is that the 3g only lasts like one day and then it never comes back unless I reflash it. Would this ROM solve that? since the modem is different?

I used to be fine with the stock modem. And do you include an option to switch to edge or it can only be done using the dialpad?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I must agree, i was thinking on working on the buttons but first i wanted you re opinion b4 so . If people dont like it , then there is no need for me to work on the buttons haha.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes there is a big chance that this rom will solve your issue based upon the info you provided .Yep it can be done with dialpad or use the app sgs tools (click on secret codes) which is included in this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Superalpaca:
I would like it a lot if it all matched, but that's just my opinion. Definitely wouldn't hurt to have options.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Updated xd
[Captivate Android Development] ameedi600:
To op: I have already tried flashing the jk4 modem and when I flash it, the sound stops working when someone calls you or you call them. What I mean is i am unable to hear someone when they call and they can't hear me. This only happens when I flash the jk4 modem. This is why I am asking you if you could change it to jk4.
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
I noticed that get an error when trying to send an msm with a picture and get an error when recieving an msm with a picture as well.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
It will give u the same result

Is your carrier cingular ?
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
My carrier is at&t.

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
That shouldnt happen , check your apn and try to send a small image.
[Captivate Android Development] antharr:
I am on AT&T as well. Cingular was bought out by AT&T a few years back resulting in the cingular settings I had in my APN settings.

MMS worked on:

-stock firmware 2.1 and 2.2

-FireFly 3.0

-Serendipity 6.3 and VII

Did not work on:

-Fasty 1.2 - 1.5

-Cognition

I tried changing the APN settings to match the settings of the ROMs where MMS worked. File size didn't make any difference either.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Mod please erase this(wrong comment)Sorry
[Captivate Android Development] Febby:
well i figured it was related to the kernel!

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=930679

flash the kernel above and you'll be able to hear calls on other modems.. least jk4 for me! not sure it will work with stock modem.

p.s onix kernel with jk4 seems to make calls sound louder for me :p
[Captivate Android Development] wingman_214:
Messageing just stoped working for me. I'm able to recieve but am unable to send. Using v1.5 I upgraded to v1.5.5 and that didn't help either.
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
I updated to 1.5 and msm is working.

Can you post Tw4, the one that was loaded with fasty 1.4 pleade I like that launcher best.

Thanks for your hard work!
[Captivate Android Development] wingman_214:
Alright, its at&t or something with my account. I've just master cleared and returned to 100% stock and messaging still doesn't work.
[Captivate Android Development] ameedi600:
I have T-Mobile on it, but I don't think that should affect it. Usually when I use a rom with jk4, it works just fine.
[Captivate Android Development] jaydenboy:
What is the difference between kb1 and the jk4 ?

Please explain?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I ll see if i can post a stable version of it ,
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Is 1.55 a wipe or an update, just checking to see if I need to refresh my TiB or not before I flash it and leave enough time to restore everything,
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
It's wipe , make a back up of your apps.
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Just and FYI, the download comes over as Fasty V1.5 is that correct or is the 1.55 download pointing to the wrong file?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
The latest is 1.5.5 , which is the last link on my first post.
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Right I got that , but when I click on the 1.55 download it takes me to your page and the download from there comes over as 1.5
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
That's the 1.5.5 , i just misnamed it (in the build also).
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Thanks, just didn't want to have to do things twice
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
No problem .

Added touchwiz 4 for whoever wants it on the first post.
[Captivate Android Development] Febby:
the difference is better or worse user reception and experience depending on how the modem works in your area. try it :P
[Captivate Android Development] bames:
DL link for 1.5.5 no working
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Just tried it and it s working fine for me.
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
Downloaded for me too.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Some times the host is down so thats why it didnt download for you .Well it's free hosting cant complain haha
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Bad news guys , my phone got broken (after i dropped it in the stairs) .I will be no longer able to relase anything until i buy a new phone. I will appreciate any donations (even 1$) to help me get a new one .
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
Donated bro!
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
I just noticted that if i reboot all my desktop laucher settings are gone. All my widgets and shortcuts are gone. Any idea of what's going on?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Did you install anything new ? what action you did before rebooting ?
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
I just used that TW4.zip to uninstall the com.sec.android.app.twlauncher because i tired to install TouchWiz4.zip that you posted it wouldn't change it.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Thats why you lost it .When you install a new launcher (depending on it's modification ) you might lose the icons on the home screen .
[Captivate Android Development] ameedi600:
The main difference for me is it gives great battery and better service.
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
After setting up my icons etc... I rebooted to see if everything would stay and it didn't only one icon an direct dial one, nothing else. I've don this three times and the same thing happens.
[Captivate Android Development] alme1304:
any one know how to take a picture using the power button? It is not there when I hold it
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
Does this support HSDPA and HSUPA ?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yepbc that file you installed mess it up .You need to reflash fasty .Dont flash anything else that isnt compatible with my rom

You suppose to press it not hold it.

Yep
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
Yes it should be there.
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
so how can i get the touchwiz4 on your rom?
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
I asked about HSDPA and HSUPA because i am currently on Serendipity 6.4 and i'm getting between 4000 and 5000kbps down and 1200kbps up, locked on 850 band.
[Captivate Android Development] alme1304:
when i press it i lock it, and when i hold it I get "silent mode, data network mode, flight mode, power off, reboot, recovery, download"
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
You sure you installed fasty v 1.5.5 lol?
[Captivate Android Development] sa1yan:
Have a few questions:

Liking the rom...pretty smooth and pretty good battery life...but I am having trouble calibrating the battery...

When I power off the phone I charge it until 100 percent and then when I power it on, it won't charge past 99%. Not even after an hour...

Also, how is the GPS on this rom?

Help?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Charge the phone fully then go to recovery mode and wipe battery stat(make sure it's 100% << to do so since u cant achieve it while on , turn it off and wait until it says 100%).

Gps locks for me instantly , so far no complaints about it.
[Captivate Android Development] wingman_214:
For anybody having messaging problems check thr phone number listed in messaging>settings>message center, it should have a +1 then a number.
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
Do i need to go back to stock if i am running Serendipity 6.4 before i flash this rom ?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes , it is always recommended to go back to stock b4 flashing a rom.
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
Can it be stock 2.1 JF6 ?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes as long as you make sure u root ur phone b4 flashing my rom.
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
Thanks....

Link to 1.5.5 still not up

I finally got the link to come up last night for 1.5.5, but it was for downloading 1.5.

NEVER HAVE gotten to the 1.5.5 download yet.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Its the same as I said in an early post I just misnamed it .
[Captivate Android Development] bveditz:
Anyone have another download path, the heliohost.org site hasn't been working for me all day. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] greygoose425:
I would love to try this ROM, I wish the download link worked for 1.5.5
[Captivate Android Development] alme1304:
I have 1.5, according to the change log, this version should have it, unless there is a mistake somewhere
[Captivate Android Development] splitnail:
It Was A Mistake. ;) There is No 1.5.5 Only 1.5 :cool: Keep enjoying the one listed in the OP
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Well like i stated before , it's free hosting so i cant complain.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
You re the only 1 having this issue. Reflash fasty and make sure you dont install something that might interfere with it.
[Captivate Android Development] 2Quik:
I noticed that your rom didn't have a calculator so i download the TouchWizCalculator.apk from here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=11172563#post11172563) i tried installing it but i get the unable to install error.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Use root explorer to move it to system/app then reboot the phone .It should be there.

[Captivate Android Development] miketucky350:
I must say this rom should be listed on the top. Who cares about "A new version" aka gingerbread. I flashed this when it first came out and loved it. Then Official gingerbread came out and cog 5, well had to test them right? They run good, no gps. Plus EATS ram/cpu and battery. This rom muwaa perfect. Its the most responsive, bug free rom to date. The touchwiz is fast and with landscape. By far the fastest landscape UI out there. On top of all that. It always pulls over 200 megs of free ram on task kill. Where gingergread will drop down to 70 to 150 and most of the time around 120. Then that one part of a rom that is a no go broken gps. Ive flashed every rom made for this phone, as i have 3 captivates sitting here. Most roms out of box and after tweaking gps sucks. This rom poof, i get 8+ satellite locks in 5 to 10 seconds. Without touching a single setting. The only draw back is we dont have a hsupa modem with audience support. If you read all of this, thats great. Its true. What a wonderful example of developer work.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Thanks

Thanks for the support

Edit : Added Fasty V1.5.5 with touchwiz 4 (better host now)
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
I thought this rom had HSDPA and HSUPA ? See post 146.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
It does here is a screenshot
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
Can the KB1 be set for 850 enabled only like the JK4 ?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes There is an app named sgs tools which is included in the rom , go to it then click on secret codes then choose band selection .
[Captivate Android Development] miketucky350:
kb1 modem does not have hsupa. You are limited to like 380k upload speeds where jk4 ect will go up to 1.5 mbps upload.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Posted a new link for 1.5.5 with touchwiz4 included and so on
[Captivate Android Development] joey_xda:
Thats what im currently getting with JK4.
[Captivate Android Development] Born2BeMild:
So I tried flashing this using CWM3 and it says it's not compatible(amend script support was dropped.) What do I do?
[Verizon Droid Charge] Riddlin:
Is this the laggiest phone anyone has ever seen? Mine gets on my nerves more often then not. I am about to throw it up against a wall. Mainly when I am checking something out and hit the home button. It takes like 10 secs to get back to the home screen. Or when I swipe from side to side. It is so annoying.

Battery life completely sucks. I need to carry around a car battery with me to be able to keep this thing going.

Power button: Coming from a Droid X this power button is the worst ever. I power my phone down everytime I hold on to the phone. Ugh.

Love the phone otherwise.

Anyone have a non-root lag fix or power button removal tool.
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
Return the piece of ****!
[Verizon Droid Charge] darwich:
Return
[Verizon Droid Charge] ShotgunSam:
LOL

On the power button - I came from a droid x too and there is no way that its that hard to hold this phone.

on the battery life - if you are running low that fast, learn to manage the stuff doing the power drain.

on the lag - did you update to ee4? it lags a little bit, but 10 secs is exaggeration unless you are running a bunch of crap at the same time.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ShotgunSam:
or do that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
Or, do that.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Riddlin:
Seriously 10 seconds is not over exaggerating. I am serious. I have the basics on my phone. I dont run a bunch of stuff. I actually downloaded JuiceDefender (and paid for it) for my phone and literally I will charge my phone and it will be down to 50% within 2 hours if I leave 4g on. I normally turn it off manually because it drains so fast. When I look at the battery usage monitor within the phone it says my screen is using 69% of my battery. WTF I barely look at the thing and I have it set on like 10% screen brightness.

I am not saying its hard to hold the phone with the power button. It is easy to hit the damn thing in my pocket or while holding and it reboots my phone every time. Like 3 times per day my phone gets rebooted.

And yes I upgraded to ee4 which was suppose to improve the phone. Not any improvement here. Maybe I just need to take it back and get a wonderfully refurbished pile of ****. Pay $300 for a phone and get a refurbished one 3 weeks later. Yeah!
[Verizon Droid Charge] suzook:
Get an iphone! You will love it:rolleyes:
[Verizon Droid Charge] Riddlin:
I would rather get my old Motorola Brick Phone back.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ColonelSeitan:
It sounds like you may have a defective phone, 10 secs is ridiculous. Def return that shiite

edit: btw, Amazon has phones generally for 50-100 bucks cheaper than the stores, I got my charge for 199 no tax
[Verizon Droid Charge] MasterRy88:
dude, your phone is jacked, if your battery is that bad AND its that laggy something is eating up all your processing power and RAM and at the same time is killing your battery. If you cant find the problem, return it. Im completly stock and have almost no lag on anything.......
[Verizon Droid Charge] elucid:
Your phone sounds defective. I never had home screen redraws like that even when stock.
[Verizon Droid Charge] chadness:
I agree, you definitely have something wrong with your phone. One thing, though - get rid of juice defender. It really screws up a 4G/3G phone like this by messing with your data connections. That might be part of your problem - every time juice defender disables your data because it thinks you don't need it, then something requests it, it has to do a lot of resyncing to get connected up again.

Are you running stock? Have you tried a different launcher? Also, have you looked to see what is draining your battery? Some people have found a rogue app, such as the calendar, constantly running and draining.
[Verizon Droid Charge] ¿GotJazz?:
(1) Replace your launcher with ADWLauncher EX (not the free version). Lots more functionality (and fun) than TouchWiz, and absolutely no lag when zipping around screens. The free version of ADW is not as fast as the paid (but, still cheap) EX version.

(2) One big battery-sucking problem I found was that I was using K-9 Mail for my primary email program. I had K-9 polling email requests every 15 minutes or so for my email accounts. Instead, I now use the TouchWiz email program for my non-GMail accounts. I selected the "Use Verizon's email server" and have Verizon push the emails out. It's pretty good, and has a *lot* less battery drain. (Verizon's email server seems to poll your email accounts approximately every 10 minutes. If you need it faster than that, oh well - your battery will suffer). I still have Google doing the GMail pushing, and it is nearly as fast as texting.

(3) Out of curiousity, what is your Quadrant score? It may indicate if you have problems.

I find that I can make it through the day without charging, as long as I'm not doing a ton of stuff on the phone.

Cheers,
[Verizon Droid Charge] Riddlin:
I use the native email app for my Gmail, Yahoo and Exchange. I do use GO Launcher EX, which is the best one I have found. That isnt the problem though even the stock launcher is laggy. I have a new phone being shipped to me tomorrow. Maybe it was just the phone. I didnt use Juice Defender until I couldnt take my battery getting robbed of all of its juice in a couple hours.

Here is my Quadrant score info: 903
