Just to update... Flashed kernel with sgs kernel flasher, rebooted to CWM, wiped cache, factory reset and dalvik, flashed beta 2.... FLAWLESS. Great work DG!
[Captivate Android Development] Donmotobike:
Hey thanks man - this makes sense - I have SGS Kernel flasher on my 4.5.3 - so just download beta 2(step 1) and just use SGS Kernel flasher and it works? CWM to flash beta 2 step 2(with full wipe/clear cache)please confirm - this is best solution to this .....hoping to avoid odin..:rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] vdubguy:
4.5 is Froyo right?

If so you need GB bootloaders
[Captivate Android Development] DirknJirkn13:
I'm coming from S7, can I just flash C5B2 using CWM since I already have GB bootloaders?
[Captivate Android Development] jpeg42:
Yeah, did that in Step 1. Just making sure I was using ODIN right. It has been a while. Thanks for the heads up though.
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
Run Odinv1.81 (or similar version) as administrator (Be sure to open Odin 1st before u connect ur phone to computer), put ur phone into download mode, connect ur phone to computer via ur micro usb cable, select the PDA slot and put the Kernel there, (make sure that the re-partition box is NOT checked) then hit start.-- Only takes a few seconds.
[Captivate Android Development] DirknJirkn13:
Answered my question. Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] RDI:
If you are running Cog 5 Beta 1 , do you have the right GB bootloaders ?
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
So how do you safely get the GB bootloaders?
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
quoted from RDI...

If you are running Cog 5 Beta 1 , do you have the right GB bootloaders ?

^ Yep, that is right.
[Captivate Android Development] vunuts:
I was coming from beta 1, so I already had bootloaders, so I'd recommend installing bootloaders first
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
Read the OP...

and if you are on Cog 5 Beta 1 you already have correct bool loaders..
[Captivate Android Development] rockosifraldi:
You could flash beta 1 using odin 1 click or you could follow this

Well the OP didn't have that link a second ago.

no offense...but have you gone through all the steps through OP..step 1 is the link you needed!!!

[Captivate Android Development] Lucke:
how is bluetooth? CM7 was pretty flaky for me, i could pair all my devices, but i could only connect to a few of them... any known issues with beta 2 yet?
[Captivate Android Development] Donmotobike:
so you still have to odin to get the right GB regardless if you have a kernel flasher on your phone...
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
I am reading through Step 1 now. I will probably wait till I get home to at least get the bootloader part done so I can use the OEM usb cable. I have a cheap cable at work I use for charging.

So if I am one 4.4.6 that Step 2 kernel will work with 4.4.6? It looks after you do step 2 you are sill on froyo right?
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
yes sir. Odin Cog5 Beta 1 or just flash the bootloaders in PDA. and you'll be straight.

Edit: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1129821

flash the GB bootloaders as PDA with Odin. then flash the cog beta 2 kernel with either Odin or SGS kernel flasher, then cog beta 2 via CWM 4.0

thats the easiest way to get to Cog5 w/ GB(i897) boot loaders
[Captivate Android Development] Donmotobike:
Thanks Man - Yeah hoping to avoid Odin - most people here are coming from Cog 4.5.3 which Rom Manager was used to flash full rom now this...there is no way avoiding Odin for this....::eek:

cheers!
[Captivate Android Development] bulletproof1013:
I was originally on the stock leaked version.wich had bootloaders. And just flashed kernel and then rom
[Captivate Android Development] kingrye:
Stuck?

Hello all,

I am stuck on ATT white boot screen!? I followed steps 1-3, each with apparent success.

The only thing possibly fishy was that after flashing kernel with Odin, it rebooted to this white ATT screen. I had to pull battery to reset. I then proceeded to do the ROM via Recovery and i seemed to install fine.

But like i said, after the reboot from Recovery, i am sitting at the ATT white boot screen :( Do i need to do the whole thing again?
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
Here is a link to install just the boot loaders if you don't have them.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1129821

After flashing boot loaders then flash the beta2 kernel, then flash the rom from

CWM. Make sure you have the Cog beta 2 rom on the sd card before you start.
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
I too am stuck on the white At&t screen after precisely following the steps. Flashed kernel with Odin. 3 buttoned to CWM and flashed rom. Stuck at boot screen.
[Captivate Android Development] kletiz:
Same problem. Went through the steps twice. Still no luck. :(
[Captivate Android Development] markdexter:
At step 2, i un checked auto reboot in Odin, once it flashed the kernel, i pulled the battery, then Vol up, with power to get into recovery, then data wiped,cach, dalvik, then flashed Rom, worked great!
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
I did exactly this. But no luck...
[Captivate Android Development] Donmotobike:
try doing master clear in Odin and redo the steps again...
[Captivate Android Development] Thegodfather156:
yes i unchecked auto reboot. all is flawless
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Hey guys, I changed Step 1 for better success, assuming there is some prep work that needs to happen via odin/heimdall to make things work correctly. Changed it to flash KF1 stock first (which will repartition, proper bootloaders, etc)
[Captivate Android Development] kingrye:
Ok its not just me then......

I just redid the kernel and rom and same result :(

One more thing which may help some guru out there. I noticed when entering Recovery, i am getting some errors about mounting E:/recovery/cache something or other...

But yeah ATT boot screen......
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Steps updated, try again!
[Captivate Android Development] bulletproof1013:
Makes sense why my flash went ok.

Sorry for sounding silly but one question: Where do I find Oden? I am not sure if I found the right one?
[Captivate Android Development] Donmotobike:
go to first page of this thread - read (step 1):rolleyes:

seeing all these complications with odin - i might wait for beta 3 one rom(all in one) rom manager friendly......good luck!
[Captivate Android Development] kingrye:
THanks, i will DL and try again!

Do i need to only do the one click update and then proceed to your step 2 and 3?

Or do i need to do the additional steps listed in the link of step 1 - flashing the additional .tar files etc.

Just want to make sure!! :):)
[Captivate Android Development] bulletproof1013:
some gapps
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
You can wait all you want, without step one you will never be able to flash the rom. (its a one time deal to get you on the latest bootloaders, partition layout, etc)

The rom is 100% clockworkmod friendly. If you try with rom manager it will simply reboot you into recovery... going to fix that soon..

without the odin step you can flash it all day, it will never work.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
added a link to it in step two!
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
Ok I'm lost. I have thebeta 1 already installed. I downloaded step 2 and installed using odin. Step 3 gives me the beta one file I installed this morning?
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
(now thats a big red flag :D)

Clear your cache and go to the download page.

Get back into dl mode
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
It is download if you installed the new Captivate bootloaders. Where were you in the installation instructions?
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
awesome! Glad that worked!
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Can you get into download mode? If you can, try doing the stock 2.3.3 Odin again. If not, then yes. probably need a JIG.
[Captivate Android Development] dajeoo:
Design or anyone, do you guys know how to get the blue sea live wallpaper back on this build, i noticed it's the only one missing. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] ozguy64:
Tried holding power +VOL UP+ VOL Down it just flashes, I know the 3 button worked before.. and its new looking icon with phone ! computer.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
How long would you say you have to wait at the ATT kernel splash? I've tried downloading Cog twice, went back to odin stock 2.3.3 twice, redownloaded kernel twice and I still get stuck at the ATT boot screen.
[Captivate Android Development] johnhazelwood:
I've noticed, when using Launcher Pro, on browser close and in some cases on certain app close events launcher pro has to restart (blank then icons come back). I assume it's a memory thing. Anyone else with the problem/solution?

Yup... JIG needed!! sorry.
[Captivate Android Development] mose2000:
So the one click to stock will bring my bootloaders back to eclair/froyo?

[Captivate Android Development] alexige:
Yes
[Captivate Android Development] chrislj:
Gingerbread has better sound quality over past rom's IMO. It is better for me and while yes voodoo sound is a great mod, it does not work with the new audio properties of gingerbread from what I can tell. DSP Manager or any of the new gingerbread only eq's for that matter do greatly improve audio over BT which is what I primarily use for my music. Voodoo seems to only work with wired headsets which I don't use. If someone can tell me that they both can exist together and function correctly then it would be perfect and you wouldn't hear another complaint outta me about voodoo sound.
[Captivate Android Development] Knight613:
I'm not sure if someone can help, but the Google Talk app seems to be missing and when I try to restore from Titanium Backup it just force closes.
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
did you try the CogApps ?
[Captivate Android Development] Knight613:
Google Talk isn't one of the options in CogApps.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Voodoo rewrites the sound driver. It makes it sound SO much better. Voodoo Sound is integrated into CM7 stock, so yes it works on Gingerbread. DSP Manager is nothing but an EQ, its limits are what the driver can push out of the chip. Voodoo Sound just makes the sound SO much better. So don't go bashing Voodoo ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
Thought u said google voice, my bad :D
[Captivate Android Development] Knight613:
Ah well hopefully DG just accidentally thought it was bloatware and it will be back in beta 2.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
I just notice the AT&T Boot Animation, Boot Sound, Shutdown Sound is still there the op said its supposed not to be there?
[Captivate Android Development] Nickel Dime Bay:
same here, everything is running super smoothe though.

I want to try touchwiz 4 on this but im not sure which one i should install.

Cant wait to get home from work and flash this in 10hrs. Be a rough day of waiting.

Thanks for your hard work DG looking foward to even better battery life and a super stable cog in GB.

Cant wait for the code drop so this can get even better.
[Captivate Android Development] CremeFraiche:
thats f*in awesome to hear.

i love the i9000 GBs especially continuum but the charge of death i couldnt deal with daily. cant wait for the extra bits and pieces youre still working on, DG. liking this so far, cant wait to theme it to my liking
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
Super snappy and can't wait for lag fix... I was happy when I heard about release, but new something super excellent was coming with dg on the case...

P.s. Has anyone noticed that the screen is way more vivid and better colors or did I just have a bad screen and fixed now?
[Captivate Android Development] glitterballs:
Is that still going on? Using which kernel(s)? I haven't had that happen on either Xcal's ginger kernels or the stock CM ones.
[Captivate Android Development] neo_31591:
ive had it in serendipity and continuum 2.3.3 roms.....didnt notice it in MIUI or cyangogenmod ...... switched back to cog 2.2...

cant wait for COG 5 stable built!!
[Captivate Android Development] DirknJirkn13:
I can't wait until this is stable. Cog 4 was the best Froyo ROM I tried! I bet Cog 5 will be the best GB ROM!
[Captivate Android Development] leezrd:
It's stable no problems here
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Does SGS Tools work on the ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] dajeoo:
10-15 secs
[Captivate Android Development] derechbennoach:
UGH! I'm embarrassed.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
yeah there's definitely something wrong then or i'm borking a step. I don't know which one as the 2.3.3 stock boots up just fine (wanted to make sure it was installing correctly), kernel installs correctly, yet Cog CWM always fails =/
[Captivate Android Development] ozguy64:
ugh! :(

Ok thanks, will go back to my old Nokia till I get hold of a jig..
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Start ODIN and plug in the USB, you will be able to flash to stock or a kernel.

If it is the new GB Captivate bootloaders, YOU DO NOT NEED A JIG.
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
Just get a few resistors from Radio Shack and tie them together and stick them in the USB plug on the phone. I did that and it worked. Unless of course you have a Jig.
[Captivate Android Development] dajeoo:
go back to beta 1 then use sgs kernel flasher from market to install kernel, and then try to reinstall beta 2 with cwm. If that doesn't work, try redownloading beta 2 , maybe it got corrupted somehow, and then try to install again.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Read post 585. Other poster is wrong. The new bootloaders let you use Odin from that screen.
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Don't see it in OP. Have a link?
[Captivate Android Development] stangri:
Thank you DG, *loving* b2. Very smooth upgrade from b1 (following complete set of instructions, starting with bootloaders).

To the people who are (like me) still missing GTalk, extract apk from the attached ZIP and place it into /system/app/ on your phone.

I'm also attaching the (shamefully stolen from i9000 rom) zipped Browser.apk which allows you to adjust User-Agent as one of the sites I use requires it.

PS. If you replace the Browser.apk the Internet shortcut will disappear from the dock, just open Applications, go to menu, select Customizable Grid, then again menu, Edit, drag the Internet shortcut back to dock (it should be in the last Apps page), menu, Save, menu and select Alphabetical list to return to normal.
[Captivate Android Development] morehush:
I'm stuck in a boot loop of the ATT logo. I reflashed the kernel from odin a couple times and reflashed the beta 2 zip from clockworkmod 4 or 5 times. no change. Any advice?

Oh, and I verified the md5 checksum for the beta2 zip and it's correct.
[Captivate Android Development] morehush:
Forgot to mention i was on beta1 prior to this, so already had the gb bootloaders.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Do you have another USB on the computer you can flash from? Another USB cable?
[Captivate Android Development] dajeoo:
i'll probably have to upload it , then send you the link.
[Captivate Android Development] bulletproof1013:
i placed a gapps zip a couple pages back ,worked good for me .
[Captivate Android Development] meadhros:
Just in case...did you already make sure you wiped data and cleared dalvik?

Sent from my Inspire 4G running something. ?!?
[Captivate Android Development] phoenix2217:
Thanks but im probably going to move on. A bit much at the moment and I don't want to accidently brick my captivate :)
[Captivate Android Development] morehush:
Yeah, but i've flashed dozens of kernels from this cable and usb port and never had a problem before, do you think that could be the problem? I can get to clockworkmod fine after flashing the kernel.

And I tried a data, cache, system wipe before flashing the beta2 zip with the same results.
[Captivate Android Development] wgarrido:
It could just be a software thing with the port. Windows is retarded and each port re-installs the drivers and such.
[Captivate Android Development] jpeg42:
I came from Cog 4.5, followed everything in the OP, but still got stuck in the ATT boot loop. So I just flashed Cog 5 beta 1, then moved to beta 2. Seemed to be the only way I could clear it up.
[Captivate Android Development] morehush:
I think I'll try flashing beta 1 with the one click again, then flashing new kernal, then beta 2. I'll report on success/failure.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
Just suggestions. Some report changing the USB on the computer has helped get it flashed and the cable goes bad a lot. Lots have cables that are only good for charging, not flashing.

Maybe return to stock GB and start again. There is a Captivate GB one click in linked in the OP.
[Captivate Android Development] ruger94:
Sometimes it takes a few tries, but it WILL flash from the soft brick screen...I've done it several times....in fact when I used my jig...thats the screen that came up, it would not go to download mode at all.

Thanks for the Beta 2 DG. Well done! CWM 4, Audience Chip, and NO AT&T logo and boot sound! Yay!

Couple of questions: I like to enable audible touchtones in Settings. But when I do, it also enables sounds on the Android keyboard! :mad: Each letter I type, there's a sound. Annoying! Never noticed this before. Anyone else?

Also, is there a button combo to get into Download? (Not up/down volume and plug in the USB cable.) Used to be Power on + down volume, etc. Can't get download that way anymore. This was true in Beta 1, as well. No biggie, just wondering.
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:

Put it in the PDA section. And to get into recovery you hold all three buttons until the AT&T logo.
