If that's the norm then that means my battery must really need to be calibrated cause I've lost close to 10% overnight with Wi-Fi turned off. Can anybody give me a quick tutorial on how to do a battery cycle/calibration so I can maximize my battery life?
[Captivate Android Development] Cease1:
Just read back a ways in the thread... there were a few posts about an app called Battery Calibration that you can download from the Market...
[Captivate Android Development] Thunder22:
Have cog5 beta 2 installed with vodoo pro. Love the rom. Best i have ever used minus a slight hiccup. Just started having loud static when making or recieving calls. Have not noticed the static before with kb1 modem and cog 4+. Could this be the kf1 modem causing static or is it voodoo? any insite?
[Captivate Android Development] Cease1:
Your Modem and Kernel have to match up or you will have problems like this... i.e. i9000 modem won't work properly with a i897 kernel etc...

At least that has been my understanding in the past. :)
[Captivate Android Development] eccezarathustra:
Mine was done using KE3 for reference. Audience Chip still works with it.

Apparently I897 modems will work, but you will need to flash via odin.
[Captivate Android Development] BigBen:
Very interesting. Congratulations. Can you give us some performance results?
[Captivate Android Development] BigBen:
UGH! :eek:

Thanks. I posted just a bit ago asking for this info before I saw this post of yours.
[Captivate Android Development] BigBen:
Hey, 10% sounds very normal. As Haloruler wrote, his result is insane. I don't doubt his results, but it is really unusual. I think he must give off some sort of "halo" that charges his Cappy :D

Anyway, I think battery recalibrating is "overrated." Take that statement for what it's worth, but I have flashed ROMs (present one included) at much less than 100% battery and move right on, no funky battery phenomena, none of that stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Does this ROM has IPTables? I tried running the command and it didn't work.

I am trying to reverse USB tether.

Edit:

The command is there, but something about a file not found.

If VPN would work that would be better than reverse tethering.

How you enabled TV Off animation

DG, I am curious, how did you enable the TV OFF animation?
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
What did you do?!!?!
[Captivate Android Development] pixbuf:
Using Heimdall

Is this ROM flashable with Heimdall? If so, how? (I try to avoid Windows in favor of Linux whenever I can.)
[Captivate Android Development] alexige:
Its built into the 2.3 framework from Google.
[Captivate Android Development] mastergflash:
I know that :) . I was just curious if there was some resource or posting for me to enable this. I know it is probably modification within the framework-res.apk , but i could be wrong. Just was trying to figure it out myself before DG releases COG 5(GA)

EDIT:

Sorry forgot to post as quote response. This is in response to alexgie's reply to my initial posting.
[Captivate Android Development] streetsmart999:
ScreenShots?

Can anyone post some Screen Shots? + Once we Flash this ROM.. and want to go back to one of I9000 based GB Rom's... is it a Str8 flash or Start from I9000 Bootloaders etc. thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
You don't have to flash bootloaders. A couple people are running KF1 bootloaders with JVP roms with no problems.
[Captivate Android Development] snowake:
DG posted

edit: No clue how you did this so fast DG. Amazing work thank you for all your hard work! Deox and Framework similar to perception?

Also, how is KF1 for stability compared to 2.3.3 and .4 based JV roms?
[Captivate Android Development] c0ldburn3r:
Haven't seen a single FC. Honestly KF1 is probably close to a official release.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I don;t think this ROM has been out long enough to answer that question. i9000 ROMs are only just getting into the stability realm and there are still some core bugs for many. ie Chaaaarging issue, Google Maps battery drain, Blank screen on dial out. (sensor) Wifi Reboots..

THe Samsung bugs and the pushing to the limits with OCing etc can unstabalize a phone.

I like that its a Captivate ROM. But even the i9000 Froyo ROMs were in some cases better than the native ones. Looking forward to a complete version.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Stock Froyo, no. The multi-lockscreen mod started out on Vibrants. It is not stock at all. It's added into ROMs. You'll see it here eventually.
[Captivate Android Development] cappysw10:
OMG... you are brilliant... you are my hero... so attentive...

[Captivate Android Development] SMaximus7:
I read the OP, but since I was under the impression that a couple of the lockscreens came with stock I posted the question. Thanks for helping out on the thread...
[Captivate Android Development] Josh K.:
This is the only Rom that drops my wifi soon after the screen goes off. Any fix for this?
[Captivate Android Development] harpo1:
Did you check your wifi sleep policy?
[Captivate Android Development] blongs:
lock screens

Just an FYI this rom has the standard glass slide lock screen but when you receive a text it changes to the puzzle with a "1", once message is read returns to glass lock screen.

Also in "about phone" it shows HSDPA but I only get 3G in status bar. Not too sure why, I usually get HSDPA where I am.
[Captivate Android Development] kennonk:
Been running the base KF1 with DG's insecure kernel now for about 13 hours and it is very stable for me. The only thing I haven't really tested is GPS performance but otherwise this is the smoothest stock rom by far. I had one FC with Google Voice that I restored with TiBu when trying to switch my Voice Mail Carrier to it but the second time worked fine. Otherwise no issues and I did a bulk restore of 100+ user apps from an i9000 Gb rom. I've run most of the i9000 based 2.3 roms and this stock so far has been the most stable and consistently smooth for me. I haven't bothered benchmarking anything yet and I bet Continuum with Talon 2.2 OC'd to 1.2GHz would beat this but as a daily driver rom this stock KF1 has been great so far. Way less features than all those awesome i9000 roms for sure, but that is what DG will bring to the table with Cog I am sure :-)
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Yeah I never had that sort of life, I mean usually it loses 5-15%, sometimes more. I'm happy about that. It's unusual, don't think it's the norm for this ROM.

I also have screenies of 30 hour battery life with some heavy use. Just changed batteries a little while ago.
[Captivate Android Development] BigBen:
Yeah, thanks for that clarification. Don't want a bunch of complaints coming in "Crap! I lose 15% overnight. What did I do wrong." ;)

Off topic, sorry, but did you get an OEM battery? It will be interesting if you got one of the many other brands, to see how it performs.
[Captivate Android Development] zmore:
That's not true. How did you arrive at that conclusion, or what is your actual problem?

You can use pretty much any phone running any version of android, and it'll work just fine as a dev device.

Flashed beta 2 yesterday and have re flashed and eveytime i reboot all apps are gone. Anyone else having this issue?
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Are your /data and /dbdata and etc... permissions set correctly? o.O
[Captivate Android Development] mikegehl:
Not necessarily true. I flashed S7 (i9000 bootloaders) , but then later decided to go back to Cog 4.x (while keeping i9000 bootloaders). The GB bootloaders are backward compatible on SOME (but not all) Froyo roms.
[Captivate Android Development] nelsonw:
There's no fix for the Preferred Location bug? I mean when u go to Settings>Applications>Preferred Location and choose internal, when reboot it forget that setting!!
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I'm having an odd issue and I'm not sure if it's related to the ROM or my launcher. And, if it is the ROM, I don't know if it's Cog-specific or something caused by the base ROM. Anyway, I run LauncherPro Plus and about one out of every 5-10 presses of the home key results in my phone asking me which launcher I want to run by default. I check the box, pick LauncherPro, and all is good for a bit. I double-checked that it is installed to the phone and not SD (though I'm sure a launcher would never install to SD for obvious reasons) and I also tried wiping my cache just to see what would happen. It didn't fix anything and now I'm a bit confused as to what to try next. Has this happened to anyone else?

Im tryin to flash kernal and gettibf zimage or something not found...using kernal flasher app
[Captivate Android Development] bornjamerican:
Ok, here it is one more time for those of you who can't get this.

The easy method (Start from stock eclair)

Step 1. Download Cog 5 beta 1 to your pc

It is an Odin1Click with the GB bootloaders already in it.

Step 2. Open Odin1Click (Cog 5beta1)

Step 3. Put phone into download mode - vol up and vol down and insert usb cable.

Odin1Click should now recognize your phone and designate a com port.

Click start and wait. Be patient as the first boot will take some time to finish loading completely.

Step 4. In the mean time, download the Cog 5 beta 2 rom and kernel.tar to your pc.

Step 5. Once your phone is finished booting, install SGS kernel flasher from the market.

Step 6. Place rom and kernel on phone's internal sd card.

Step 7. Flash kernel using SGS kernel flasher. The kernel will also install CWM recovery 4 which you use to flash rom.

Step 8. Use your preferred method to get into recovery mode. DO NOT USE ROM MANAGER - IT WON'T WORK!!!

You should now have the orange version of CWM.

Step 9. Scroll down to install .zip from sd card and select using the power button.

Step 10. Scroll down to choose .zip and select.

Step 11. Locate the Cog 5 beta 2 rom and select.

Sit back and enjoy the greatness of DG.

[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
I too have LPP and I just spammed my Home button about 25 or so times, and didn't have it ask me what launcher I wanted to use.
[Captivate Android Development] ratatouille:
And where do you find Cog5beta1? The link is for Cog5beta2...

Never mind.... I found it....
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
I'm getting bout 2.4mb/s... So better speed on cog 5.x
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
You don't need Beta1.

To make it even more clear:

1. Download Cog kernel and Beta2 zips

2. Put Beta2.zip on the phone

3. Odin back to stock eclair (JF6)

4. Odin to KF1

5. Odin/Heimdall/SGS Kernel Flasher to Cog Kernel

6. Boot into CWM Recovery and flash Beta 2.

Not really all that complicated once you get into it.

And here are some afternoon results of the UCKF1 modem speed tests that I did where I went out and made sure that I was connecting on WCDMA 1900 Band 2 just to see if there would be different outcomes. And as well, I re tested at my home again where I was connecting on WCDMA 850 Band 5 to see if the test would prove better than this mornings.---and it did on the Upload speed at least. Of course once again, these are my results and everyone else's may vary. But just wanted to post as a fyi reference.

First pic on the left is the retest on wcdma 850 at my home and the 2nd pic is the test on 1900, which I was connecting around -67 dBm + or - some...

These last two result pics look as though that is how this I897UCKF1 modem is going to perform on average for me..."ymmv" :D

[Captivate Android Development] shinji257:
Skip step 3. If you are going to Odin to KF1 it's going to wipe it anyways. The rest would be right though. I personally used Odin to flash the Cog kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I agree. I have always flashed ROMs with whatever battery life I have left in the phone. After a few cycles battery life evens out everything's fine. Plus I keep one in a charger always charged up as well.
[Captivate Android Development] Cdub5:
Anyone's cappy running hotter than before with this rom? I got two phones running this and they seem to get hotter when using than they did before. Also, everyone who is getting "Amazing" batt life, is that on wifi or 3g? Just activated data for the first time today and my battery life dropped drastically. I know batt drain is to be expected on 3g, but my battery lost 40%+ in about 6 hrs. Its this others results/normal? I did a battery pull, and that didn't help. I usually deactivate 3g, usually on wifi. Is this all the modems fault?

Damn search!

@ miztaken1312

The method I'm suggesting is for those that have problems using full Odin and don't want to bother with PDA, CSC, PHONE, and etc files. For those that have no issues using full Odin, then yes you are correct.
[Captivate Android Development] vunuts:
For anyone still having this issue, select whatever launcher you want to use, then go into titanium backup and freeze the launchers you want to remain inactive. Easy way to eliminate that default box popping up.

Umm I know this is going to sound nooby but how do you get cwm recovery? I used Odin and installed the tar file and when I go into recovery its the stock android one..Idk why I can't get it to replace
[Captivate Android Development] kingtz:
Flashed to Cog5b2 last night and so far everything's been super snappy. Menus and options open up almost instantaneously and everything just seems much more responsive (compared to cog4.5.3).

Now for the cons in the hope that it will aid DG in troubleshooting and making this great ROM even better:

Battery life doesn't seem as great. I unplugged my phone from the charger at around 10:30am and now at nearly 5:30pm, I'm already down to 60%. I've only been doing light browsing, using the xda app, listening to music with winamp and updated a few apps in Market. I've had GPS off, wifi on.

Also had a crash(?) today with PvZ. After I exited the game, the phone went back to the homescreen and promptly rebooted on its own. Not sure what happened there.

I also can't wait for Voodoo sound to be implemented into 5b3. I use 320kbs mp3s and noticed a degradation in sound quality after using voodoo sound in 4.5.3 and then using what ever stock sound in 5b2.

All in all, I'm really liking this ROM and am glad that DG is working on GB!
[Captivate Android Development] daverup:
How are you attempting to get to recovery? Did you get the GB bootloaders fixed first via Odin to KF1?

You could try SGS kernel flasher to install the kernel tar file.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:

This is the best stock Captivate ROM I've ever used. Speed, battery life, GPS (FWIW).
[Captivate Android Development] grinr:
Ok, I'm asking the dumb question. I Odined this guy as per step one, now I'm at what appears to be a stock Gingerbread Captivate. I no longer have root, so I can't use the SGS Kernel Flasher and apparently my old update.zip (as per "how to install roms" page) doesn't work as it's not authorized?

How do I root this?
[Captivate Android Development] frankdogg:
What recovery do you have?
[Captivate Android Development] jeremytanner:
Next step would be to use the Odin tool (or Hiemdall) to flash the CogKernel. From there you can boot into recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] Cdub5:
I was just curious cuz my phone sat in my pocket for most of the time, I made 2 short phone calls and that's it. That caused 40% batt drain? Referring to my post and the two following a couple above this one. Never this bad with 3g deactivated, but that kinda sucks if I have to always deactivate network.
[Captivate Android Development] grinr:
I take it Odin has a standalone version - I was trying to figure out how to use 1-step and I guess that makes me noob of the hour. Downloading Odin 1.83 now... that should set me up? Will the cogkernel root me as well?
[Captivate Android Development] jeremytanner:
Yes. Just download the .tar kernel and Odin 1.83. The kernel is flashed through the PDA slot. All the other options should already be set, but just to be sure, make sure Repartition is NOT checked. :)
[Captivate Android Development] DirknJirkn13:

[Captivate Android Development] richsale:

[Captivate Android Development] Cdub5:
Is this all connected to wifi? Any network time in there?

I got these kinda numbers with network deactivated, but seems with it activated batt drain is pretty bad. My phone stayed in pocket and drained 40% in about 6.5 hrs
[Captivate Android Development] shinji257:
If you don't want to wait foelr voodoo sound integration you can get voodoo control plus. That one can load the modules in. It does seem to work and reports a successful load.

Yeah, Samsung OEM battery off Amazon. Either that or the original it came with, they're identical so I don't know which I'm using anymore. I have a few Japanese batteries lying around though, might calibrate the phone to use those. Because after Samsungs, they start at 85% and **** out at 15%, but calibrating for them makes everything ok.

No need to go to stock jf6 or stock kf1.

Put cog 5.2 on sd.

Wipe/factory reset in recovery.

Flash i897 gb bootloaders via odin.

Flash cog kernel via odin.

Apply cog 5.2 zip in recovery.

I went from Continuum 5.6 to Cognition 5.2 in that order, then went to AtomicFusion via Odin.

You guys are over complicating things. All you need to do is make sure you have i897 gb bootloaders and cog recovery... No need to go back to stock eclair or froyo.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
I know nandroid backup sin CWM didn't work in the Froyo days, where they failed to backup the kernel and bricked your phone when you restored them. They work flawlessly on MTD, as I nandroided between CM7 with the new modem partition and MIUI with the old modem partition. Does it work with Cog5? Can I actually make full backups and restore them normally as long as I stay on the same bootloaders?
