Proper pit file?
[Captivate Android Development] skullvet:
The stock email app hasn't worked right for me at all since beta 2. Auto cap and auto correct doesn't work with the android keyboard. Anyone else notice this?
[Captivate Android Development] Kenn Lynch:
Halruler

could you please clarify that a bit?

When I went to Cog 5 v1 what I seemed to notice was that

there seemed to be larger delays on power up, in media scan

and my home screen Icons would seem to be "ghosted out"

for a minute or two. (battery life 4me was worse than 4.n)

I had read about the problem with bad default load location

I kind of assumed this might be the cause. But becuase of my

own confusion of the memory model and terminology in our phone

I didn't make the changes (System mem, SD Internal and External)

I was also reluctant to move a lot of these APs into system mem

not being sure if I had enough room or it would impact the performance?

Then what dawned on me was that the original backup that I am restoring

has to fit in system memory as thats where it was originally located

Well rather than change the locations I upgraded to Cog 5 v2

It installed well via CWM (CWM needs to clarify the revised "nav" keys?)

And seems to be running snappier than Cog 5v1.

My bad, I forgot to backup my homescreen with SGS tools so I manually restored the homescreen icons. I still had the same delayed "ghost" effect on my home screen icons on power up.

I tried moving the few visable HS icons to system mem

and that seems to have resolved the ghosting issue and improved media

scanning time! (believe all will be well if I move them to system mem)

Well aside from sharing my own experiences my questions

is how do we handle the general clean up and restoration of APs

incorrectly loaded to SD memory?

I'm hoping get general consensus and better picture

for both present (presumably a user with Aps in both places)

Is there a simple way to move all to sys mem?

And regarding settings in TitBU prior to backing up and or restoring

Saw someone state remove your SD chip prior to restore and Aps default to system mem. Unfortunately I've never seen a single clear discription of the

memory Cogs memory model. What confuses me, is that I always think of SD memory as user installed removeable memory chip. Apparently Cappy has

internal SD mem and a slot for user added (external) SD mem

Appreciate any input

(your input is always a big plus to this group Thanks)

Kenn

PS my battery life seems much improved with 5v2!

back to the great pre Cog 5 levels, I was having.
[Captivate Android Development] johnhazelwood:
What is juwe11's ram script? Does that solve the memory issue which causes the screen to redraw?
[Captivate Android Development] admrusty:
I downloaded the free version and it seems to play just fine on 5.2
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Is it possible to get a link to the rfs kernel? I've been searching for a way to go back to rfs but not coming up with any luck.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
You should be able to download the Voodoo sound app from the market. There is a setting in it to remove lagfix. Uncheck the box and reboot. It will take a bit as it reverts.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
I totally forgot about that. Thanks for reminding me. Have had it.since I got the phone :)
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
^ mbc633,

Let us know if that works. Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
I know I remember seeing that setting, where the hell did it go? Don't see it on 2.1 from the market or my 3.0 plus version.

Btw, the mosaic theme in the atomic fusion thread looks absolutely fantastic on this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Humm. I have 3.0.1 Plus but I am currently running Darky 10.2.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Could be the kernel cog uses, can't think of anything else.
[Captivate Android Development] sivextien:
Cog 5v2

Just upgrade to Cog 5v2 from Cog 4 on Friday night and very impressive with the battery life. Until now is 2d10h7m on battery and still has 8% on normal use with ~1h of music, >4h of Wifi, using 2G signal, about 15 mins on voice calls, 30-40 SMS, 1/2 hour for playing Asphalt 6 HD.

DG : thanks for great ROM and hope you will continue *cook* it. :)

Just only one issue : Power Control Widget doesn't. Anyone here experienced same issue ?
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Reboot fixes the power control widget
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Voodoo app is to control Voodoo. This does not have Voodoo. There is no way to convert to RFS without flashing to stock. That is the limitation of the method DG uses to get EXT4 working, as he couldn't get Voodoo Lagfix working.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
So about the ghosting icon issue, I really don't know how to fix it. I'd suggest flashing it without an external SD (the MicroSD you insert), and installing all your apps from TiBu and such then. They will install to your internal SD (the 16GB one built into the phone, with the 2GB partition for apps), I believe. Then insert your MicroSD. Now, to move apps to the internal SD, go to Settings > Applications > Manage, then click on the SD tab. If there is anything on the SD, just hit the app and move it to internal memory. It's that easy. That's what I did, with all the new apps I installed. Moved them back.

Also, it's really not a good idea to move any apps to /system/app. There is no benefit, and apps won't be able to be updated. just use the feature in Settings to move apps between internal and external memory.

Oh, and I appreciate the compliment :D
[Captivate Android Development] Skoffer:
Just wanted to sharea quick experience over the weekend.

I'm on Cog 5.2 and on Saturday, I allowed my nephews to play Angry Birds Rio on my phone for about 3 hours, total, and this was after using the GPS for about an hour in the car.

I pulled the phone off the charger at 7AM that morning and it finally died on me that night around 10:30PM. Then, yesterday, I used my phone to take about 25 pictures and send 3 or 4 through SMS, and also browsed a few sports forums for about 20 minutes, but I pulled it off the charger around 9AM and when I went to bed at midnight, it was at 78%.

The battery life on this ROM is just silly good.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Thanks for the info. For some reason, I thought the paid version was not kernel dependent. Not sure where I read/got that idea but if it the lagfix option does not show up, that is proof enough it can be kernel dependent :o
[Captivate Android Development] :
So for those of you that have made the jump to V2, how is EXT4 compared to RFS? Is it noticeable? Does the phone slow down as often?
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
as soon as i switched to ext4 my signal got significantly worse. its not a coincident either. my phone just does better on rfs. speed difference isnt too noticeable to me.

unplugged the phone at 8:30am, 3:07pm now at 98%. havent used it at all really, 2 txt msgs. HOLY S
[Captivate Android Development] loraque:
I am normally in the camp that says "I cannot tell the difference", but V2, whether from EXT4 or elsewhere, DOES run smoother than V1. Its been running great.
[Captivate Android Development] snorkle:
This has been asked before I'm sure of it but I'm working so don't have time to look around but is there a way to get voodoo sound working? Or something else that serves the same function?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Get the paid version from the market. That one does't require the kernel module.
[Captivate Android Development] accordztech:
I was going to go with apex7 rom to run netflix, until my phone bricked. I just got it back to find out that netflix may work on this rom...is this true?
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Yea works on any GB ROM and works on stock now too. So pretty much doesn't matter what ROM it should work.
[Captivate Android Development] xAndrew225x:
Question, when flashing clockwork before flash Cog do I choose Galaxy i9000 as the phone because captivate isn't a choice. Just trying to stay brick free :)
[Captivate Android Development] lakid06:
Is there any custom shutdown animations for this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] basily:
I'm not an expert, but, why flash clockworkmod recovery from rom manager when you already have recovery?
[Captivate Android Development] basily:
sip integration

Has anyone else had trouble with the built in SIP phone since installing v2? It worked beautifully for me before, but now, not so well... of course I don't know if the rom is to blame, so many other potential causes...
[Captivate Android Development] Tweak4fun:
Crazy good battery life! The phone feels very fast & responsive as well. I usually prefer I9000 roms but I may need to stay on this one for a while. I have tried every other rom out there, even MIUI & CM. The Gingerbread roms just don't seem to have the same great battery life that the Froyo roms achieved. This rom definitely approaches the later versions of Froyo for battery life.

I only wish we had source for the kernel. My desire to try & test the custom kernels (which are only available for the I9000 right now in Ginger) will eventually lead me away from this rom.

DG... great rom! Thank you for not leaving the cappy owners behind!
[Captivate Android Development] Cdub5:
So my phone did it's usual reboot in the middle of a call today. (Becoming extremely frustrating) Difference is this time when my phone shut off, my battery was at about 60%. When the phone rebooted itself, 10 sec later, I was down to 7%! So I then rebooted the phone and it showed 19%. Figured somehow the calibration was all kinds of wacky. Then about 5 minutes later I clicked the phone on and the battery was now at 24%! I gained 5% while phone was not charging. Not sure what happened here. I'm on the latest update, I charged to 100% before I flashed, Cleared batt stats in recovery, and I didn't use the phone any differently than I had in the past. weird.
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
Happened to me couple times
[Captivate Android Development] streetsmart999:
Random Shutdowns..

Anybody else? If yes.. Is there a Fix?
[Captivate Android Development] popfan:
I have not had that happen to yet. Happened more in then a few times in v1.

Just curious - did you guys clear your davlik cache and do completely clean installs?
[Captivate Android Development] streetsmart999:
If this is for my Question... Yes.. for all. I always do that.. Before and after too. Just be safe and clean.
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
I had to manually wipe since it keep showing my old home screen, really odd.
[Captivate Android Development] accordztech:
Sweet rom. Nice, fast, and saweet. The GPS is very fast, its accurate to about 100 feet, but on my previous roms it never can find a signal. Got a few questions though

1. Can someone do me a favor and see if their TV out works? Mine doesnt work anymore with cognition5v2.

2. When im on the browser, and I want to put in a internet address, it keeps going to the RSS feeds menu, how do I get around that?

3. Also I thought that we will have more lock screens than the regular, cause I dont see anything new.

4. My phone activated car mode, what is that and how did I get into that mode?

5. I also cant find the android keyboard that I liked. Did they remove that from this rom, sad because I dont like this keyboard.
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
I used swiftkey, best keyboard and worth the price. Which keyboard are you looking for?
[Captivate Android Development] jlsesler:
I ported (with some modification) a theme that is compatible to cog 5 v2. It is here:

Let me know what you think.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Wow! Beautiful work! Finally seeing some nice themes for kf1. Once I get sick of the orange mosaic theme from the atomic fusion thread ported by ruger I'll def be using this :)
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Wow I might have to try it. I stopped using themes for awhile but this might make me install one. I love the dark blues.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
I take offense to that! :O
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Just got back from the car and testing TV OUT.

It works but only for videos. The home screen doesn't show. It shows the signal but the image looks like it is squished into the top and just random pixels colors. But the area which should be the screen is there and black. Didn't test wither is was a landscape / portrait issue or only works for videos.

At least video works since I was thinking of using my phone instead of a carpc, which I have now.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Sheer brilliance is great. One if not the first kf1 theme. Sorry :)
[Captivate Android Development] DirknJirkn13:
I have the same problem, it's just a line across the top of the screen. Any ideas on what the problem is/how to fix it?
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Not sure, but a good test would be to try stock KF1 and see if it works. If not then is a AT&T ROM thing and we will have to wait for the real update and source.
[Captivate Android Development] jimmyevans82:
Thank you to cog bc ive spent the last three weeks battling random reboots on atomic fusion and fcs on cm7. its noce to have a rom just work.
[Captivate Android Development] mdoctor:
I love Sheer Brilliance... Understated, functional and easy on the eyes! Great job Haloruler!
[Captivate Android Development] mattern1974:
Just toggle gps off then on in the shade and all icons show in power control widget.
[Captivate Android Development] accordztech:
I like the android keyboard that was in cognition4.2 or something. It was a little bit bigger than the normal one.

Thanks for testing that out, I guess ill try to do a video and see. But I sure hope that netflix plays, that was the main reason I went with this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Twas but a joke :) thanks though!
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Oh wow, thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Well netflix works but I didn't test it on the tv out, darn it. Didn't think of that. Let me know if you get it working. I will have to try when I get home since I use my motorcycle to get to work.
[Captivate Android Development] sivextien:
Brilliant ! Fixed after days of trying various ways :D Thanks so much.

This is the most smooth, fast and impressive battery life Cog ROM since v3 . Again, thanks so much DG !
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
u know whats awesome? sheer brilliance!
[Captivate Android Development] accordztech:
for some reason my phone today is in landscape mode, even the home screen. WHen I make calls it turns on the speaker phone automatically. How Do I get it back to normal?
[Captivate Android Development] roadrash7:
People keep trying to call me and sometimes dont get through. My signal strength is horrible most the time and often no service at all. Do i need a different modem or kernal what is it?
[Captivate Android Development] ramathiam:
No available space

I'm having an issue I can't seem to get worked out. I see where others have gotten insufficient space warnings and that's what I'm getting, but when I look at Available Space under System Storage, it shows 0.00B.

Here's how I got here:

Flashed back to JF6 using Odin-1-Click and did a Master Clear.

Flashed to KF1 using Odin-1-Click as directed in the link given in Step 1, bypassing the optional steps.

Once the phone came back up, I checked that everything appeared to work and my available system storage space showed 1.79GB.

Flashed the v2 kernel with Odin 1.81.

Once the phone boots back up is when my available space has gone to 0.00B.

I'm going to play with it some more and try to do it CWM.

I don't know if it matters, but throughout the above process, my SIM card & external flash were not installed.

I really appreciate any ideas.

UPDATE: I'm an idiot.

I didn't realize the CWM Recovery was already installed so I thought I had to install it, but the market wouldn't let me because I was out of space. I went ahead and copied the file over and was able to reboot into recovery and flash the ROM. Can't wait to check it out.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
Is there a way to go back to rfs while keeping all the kernel tweaks ???
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Don't think so. The way it was set up, the only way to convert back to RFS is to flash back to stock and repartition. Sorry.
[Captivate Android Development] snorkle:
This rom is amazing ..I love the market! !
[Captivate Android Development] Delldorado:
i just finished with step 2 and am now trying step 3 however having problems. im new to this stuff. but my phone as well says system storage 0.00B. i downloaded the cog5 files extracted them to a folder. copied the folder to my sd named it update then went into clockwork install from sd found the file said install. rebooted. my phones in the exact shape it was in before still 0.00 storage. anyone know what im doing wrong? was i just supposed to copy a specific folder in the cog folder over or rename the entire thing update? any help would be great thanks

[Captivate Android Development] the_nite_owl:
Cannot finish Cog 5 install

I am probably missing something easy but...

Used Odin 1 Click, completed install of 2.3.3 and tried to complete installing Cognition 5v2 but I get an E signature verification error. Tried downloading zip with stock browser and Opera but it made no difference.

Do I need to change kernels? If so can I get a quick review on what/where/how? I have been away from flashing for a while and my brain went stale.

Another odd symptom though, I tried using Rom Manager to tell the phone to reboot into Clockwork Mod Recovery mode and it tells me the phone is not rooted.

I get into recovery mode with the volup-down-power combination but it fails with the e sig verification error and aborts.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
U don't have to rename the Cog Rom. Just copy to ur phone. And for step 3, use the button combo (volume +/- and power then release after u see the at&t screen) to get in the CWM Recovery. Then navigate (remember the different buttons for this) to the Rom and install.
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
Sounds like u missed Step 2 & 3 of the OP.

Step 2 gives u the Kernel u need. Use the attached Odin to install the Kernel. Extract file, open Odin, put Kernel in the PDA slot, put ur phone into download mode (volume +/- and insert micro usb with usb already being connected to the computer) and start.

Step 3 gives u the Rom.

[Captivate Android Development] csdibiase@gmail.com:
I've had that problem and the more anoying one where you'll have 5 bars and still not be able to make or receive calls. Unfortunately this seems to be an at&t issue and not a phone firmware issue since both are problems I have wig my black berry and my wife's Nokia handset.
[Captivate Android Development] Delldorado:
well i noticed that the kernal we are supposed to flash before the installation of the cog rom is what causes my system memory to go to 0. but anyways after that i put the zip file on my external, (is it supposed to be internal?) i go into recovery and its already cwm recovery, do install rom from sd card, i pick the rom, i click yes and then nothing. my phone will sit with a black screen and the bottom 4 buttons will stay lit
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
Yeah, u could give the KB1 or the KE3 modems a try.

Copy the Rom to the Internal sd of the phone.

The Kernel has the CWM Recovery built in. Flash the Rom from there.

Don't use Rom Manager.
[Captivate Android Development] roadrash7:
Gonna try ke3 first thanku
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Toss the ROM on before you use the kernel in step 2.
[Captivate Android Development] Oxicottin:
I'm loving this ROM... one problem i ran buy so far anx how is it fixed. I turned off my phone last night and pluged it in to charge and all i get is lit up lights and a ring in center of screen. Any fixes?
[Captivate Android Development] Zero4:
That's a known bug with the graphics, the phone is still charging. I'm not sure if there's a fix for it, other than re-flashing. Check back about 10 pages, I think it was discussed there.
[Captivate Android Development] the_nite_owl:
I started fresh, used Odin 1 Click to go to stock then used Odin to put in the kernel and rom for 2.3.3. When I got to step 2 to put in the kernel for Cog 5.2 it still tells me the file failed validation.

I am running v2.3.3 and it is now rooted. I download the kernel and rom files using Opera to the download folder on the internal storage then reboot and get into clockwork recovery mode.

Am I making some mistake in how I download or where I place the files? Do they need to be pushed to the phone through adb mode?

I am at work now so cannot do adb mode until I get home. I thought I could just download through the phone and flash it.

I vaguely remember something about the file being named incorrectly when downloaded through the phone???

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] shane87:
It sounds like, for whatever reason, that cwm is checking 3e signature verification. It is an option in cwm to force signature checks, but normally it is set to disabled. To see if that is your problem, do this:

1. Power off phone

2. Boot into cwm, using vol up + vol down + power

3. Select "Install .zip from sdcard"

4. Select "Toggle signature verification" until it says "Signature check: Disabled" in the white text info area

5. Select "Choose .zip from sdcard"

6. Scroll to cog5v2.zip and select it.

I hope this helps. I know that official roms are signed, and stock recovery will only flash signed files. Cwm is supposed to flash unsigned files as well, and has always worked like a charm for me. However, if signature check is enabled, it would make cwm like a fancy stock recovery, so it is worth a try.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
[Captivate Android Development] the_nite_owl:
I get the option "apply update from sdcard" and when I select that I only have options for backing out of that menu or selecting a file to update, nothing to toggle signature verification.

Am I not in Cwm? The top of the screen says Android system recovery <3e>.
[Captivate Android Development] basily:
Re-flashing? Are you implying that not everyone has this bug and I can get rid of it by re-flashing v2? Or are you talking about re-flashing an older version?

I have read that and all that was said is "its a known bug"..... please explain further.

Darn it I am getting the not enough space trying to install Doctor Who. I got it once one v1 but i moved some apps back to phone from SD card and it never came back. This time I have nothing to move. Any ideas? Other than ROM has been great well minus the memory issue.
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Anyone else have a problem with the Facebook widget killing the battery? Seems since Cog 5 its been top on the list. But I doubt its a ROM thing. I got rid of the widget and my battery is much better like people were saying. I used it for a long time no problem. I thought maybe since FB is blocked at work it keeps trying, but it wasn't an issue before. Hmm.

Edit:

After a reboot FB came back and using battery again without the widget ;(
[Captivate Android Development] the_nite_owl:
From what I have read it is a bug with the graphic but does not affect the actual charging of the phone. I have not heard of a fix yet but have only been back in the group for a couple days.
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
U have to flash the Kernel v 2 through the Odin i posted a few posts back. U can't install it through Recovery.
