With this rom i have noticed that my power draw at idle it pretty much close to nothing...while power draw while actually using the phone is similar to other roms...which is great bc for that time that the phone is idle its not using much battery....i had it unplugged for about 2 hrs and battery still read 100% a few days ago..

(correct me if im wrong since you were in airplane mode wouldn't you expect phone to last for an extremely long time??)

has no one else tried turning off HSPA...and use just 3g...seems like it would be a great way to further extend the life of our battery...i dont really care for the HSPA (at the moment)

also i dont use my bluetooth often so didnt notice this before...but it doesnt seem to want to trun on anymore??
[Captivate Android Development] Wdustin1:
Well I am on fasty now. I'm liking it so far very smooth and idon't see any fc or any slowdowns very good work. One question, is the voodoo color tweaks in this or not it had been a while since I have used a voodoo rom and my colors look a little different I'm not surecif its stock or voodoo

Treading the waters on Fasty 1.7
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
It's confirmed that bluetooth works with no issue , it could be from your phone since some builds have wifi and or bluetooth problems.

The colors should look better then stock lol
[Captivate Android Development] nehal51086:
never mind...thank you for the quick response...i found the problem...it was the App "Green Power" i use it to control my data...it was preventing the BT to turn on...tried turning it on with the app off and it worked...
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I am glad you fixed the problem buddy .;)
[Captivate Android Development] Wdustin1:
OK so i have found one bug that I can reproduce time and time again. When I be a voice mail I pull down the notification bar and hit voicemail and it says call not sent but it really did and it is connected in the notification bar

Treading the waters on Fasty 1.7
[Captivate Android Development] nehal51086:
anyword on being able to use only 3g?....

on a side note.....all of my friends with captivates envy my battery life....lol...ill be flashing several more phones soon...thank you for the great work..

has anyone used a desk dock with this rom?...what happened?
[Captivate Android Development] kakahoang:
does anyone have a working netflix in this rom? tks a lot for any help
[Captivate Android Development] ap89b:
Modem

Just curious to why other modems don't work with this rom? I personally just get horrible data on KB1. Other than that rom seems great so far. Will report back after a few days.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
It's because of the kernel .
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Can any1 confirm if this netflix is working with no crash www.webproz.org/fastyrom.html
[Captivate Android Development] Febby:
Look back a couple of pages... read! Read! Read! I've answered this around 2 times now... as logic said, it is because of the kernel.. flash another 2.2 kernel like onix and flash another modem but don't complain if you experience issues as it all varies on the kernel and modem performance in the area you are in. :)
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Any1 confirmed if this ^ is working properly?
[Captivate Android Development] savvacon:
Well I flashed this rom 3 days ago mostly because I need longer battery life and prefer something stable.

The setup was a breeze without any issues and I followed the instructions fully and had 100% battery life. The rom is stable as it gets. I have not had a single reboot or wifi drop or any other issue. I also noticed that I'm not missing anything that the 2.3.4 roms have.

But a good as everything is my battery life is really, really bad. I charged the phone twice yesterday and it still died by 10pm giving me 13 hours on 2 full charges! Today after less than 2 hours I'm at 71%... Any advice? Btw I haven't changed the modem or the kernel, I'm running what is recommended.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Check what's consuming your battery the most , it's either an app or you have a bad battery , in that case it will be advised to get a new 1.
[Captivate Android Development] savvacon:
The display seems too be using most of the battery life nothing unusual as far as what's consuming it. I was on serendipity 7 before and I was using about 6% an hour... The battery seemed fine.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
That just hard for me to believe . Sorry , you re the first one .
[Captivate Android Development] Mr3000:
OK Yall ....

I was able to make some headway.

1st ... The root issue

Not able to get SuperUser no matter what I tried and installing a few aps and messing around, I just wanted to start fresh ... So I Factory Reset with a format SD. I tried SuperOneClick and NO root ! For haha's I reset w/Format again and tried SuperOneClick and got SuperUser. I know, I know .... No wait ! I have no idea !

Then I used the Modded 3e recovery method found here and was able to get into Clockwork recovery from ROM Manager and reinstall packages in 3e recovery.

Sorry if I cluttered this thread ! I would still like explanations of the later questions in my post above please.

Also ... If I flash this ROM will I be able to flash back to KB1 to return to Stock (say ... for warranty purpose) or will I have to go all the way back to JH2 and work my way up ? What exactly does this ROM change as far as Kernel, Modem ... ect ?

Still need clarification on those ! lol

Thanks All
[Captivate Android Development] splitnail:
An easier method would have been to flash a new kernel (say the speedmod) in odin and just flash this rom from that recovery. Should be as easy as that. modding the 3e recovery can be a hassle if your new to this.

From what I hear (even though I haven't looked it up myself) There is an odin one click floating around here that will take you to stock froyo. If not just use the eclair version and run kies after. Either way, I don't think they'll say anything if you bring it in with problems and it's on eclair. As long as it's not rooted it should not void the warranty.

Hope this helps. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] splitnail:
Not working man, I'll give this a go tonight and find one that does, I know there is.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes you can always go back to stock with no root by using odin .This rom will make your phone faster then stock and also better battery life.

Here is another netflix to try http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=626519&d=1308178741
[Captivate Android Development] splitnail:
I tried that one earlier today... No go, it boots, but when you sign in it closes the program. No notification, just shuts down. I've tried 7 different versions, but there's more out there. One has to work. :cool:

Edit: Still trying... Tried them all with and without an edited build.prop, nothing yet
[Captivate Android Development] harryk92:
I can confirm the battery life and speed of this rom. It just sat idle for two hours and did not drop one percent of battery. I'm using slight undervolt as well. The speed is as good as any of the GB roms out now, in terms of day to day usage not benchmarking. I'm on att, this modem works great and I have no texting issues. GPS locked on in about eight seconds.

A few suggestions,

Add an option for a see through notification bar. Also, cm7 has a neat feature where you can slide notifications to the side one by one to get rid of them, that'd be nice too. In addition, I can't get that Netflix running.

Still though, thank you. I have a lot of flying to do next week and this is going to be my rom of choice :-)
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
There is lot of changes I want to implement on this rom, but I can't do so until I get a new phone. So far I received 5 donations $25 and I have $75 so its still not enough for me to get a new phone.
[Captivate Android Development] nehal51086:
just like to throw it out there...the stock launcher "twlauncher" crashes when phone is put into a desk dock....even after taking phone out of dock only remedy is to restart phone...i started using the sony ericsson launcher...it has grown on me and i have started to like it...it does not crash when put into the dock...
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yeah the sony Ericsson launcher is neat , you can also try the windows 7 launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] vinamilk:
So now you have $200, how much does Captivate cost (maybe 2nd one) in country that you're living ?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
25 + 75 = 100 that's what I have.The phone cost 200 plus $20 for shipping which mean I need 220.
[Captivate Android Development] vinamilk:
Sorry for my mistake (5x25 + 75 = 200), I live far away from you, no paypal, no master card/visa card. So I just only Thanks and pray for you to get a new phone !
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
No need to be sorry ^_^.Thank you .
[Captivate Android Development] BAleR:
Is there any way I could do testing for you until you get a new phone? I don't have much money, or I would donate, but just trying to do what I can.

Edit: Just thought of something, the only thing is, I am now on linux mint, and have no way to go back to windows, I dont have a dang restore cd so I had to install linux. but shouldnt be a problem right? since Im already on your rom.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Thanks buddy for trying to help . I have 3 people testing but the matter reside in my slow internet and time.(for me to upload a rom so the tester can test it takes me 45 min to an hour , then again if something is wrong i have to redo it) << That needs lot of patience ,after couple of days i find my self with no patience and causes me problems with familly and so on haha.I decided to take it slow one try a day .Linux shouldnt be a problem , i ll hit you up if i need you .Thanks again,
[Captivate Android Development] antharr:
Just adding that MMS is working in 1.7. I am now a happy camper.:D
[Captivate Android Development] bikinibottom100:
wallpaper

Hey, i got 1.7 and its fantastic.

Question - With the 'Wallpaper Gallery' option (when choosing a walllpaper), how do you put your own images into this folder?

I am asking because if I choose an image i want in the normal way from the gallery, it asks me to crop the image which i do not like doing.

I like the handling of wallpapers from 'Wallpaper gallery' so how do i add more then?

I am against getting a new launcher.
[Captivate Android Development] snowake:
Much better life than FF.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
To include it , you will need to decompress the twwallpaper choser and add it then compress it , i ll advice you to look for an app .

Ok guys 1.8 will be out soon

changes are :New icons

added Bounce animation

Added new sgsII wallpapers

Included the fixes i did on the dialer since i forgot to include it on v 1.7

New boot animation

new battery mod

Added sns facebook which gives you the ability to sync contact with facebook in settings account and sync

My friends are still testing to make sure there is no problem , then i shall upload .
[Captivate Android Development] BAleR:
If im already on 1.7 can i flash over it in clockwork? And 1 question, how do I manually get into clockwork hold V up and power UNTILL recovery? Or let go at boot screen? I forget
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes you can , hold volume up and down then hold the power button then let go when you see the att boot after 2 seconds .:p
[Captivate Android Development] nehal51086:
Yay!!!...lol...:p

had a feature request/idea...ive seen it on previous roms dont rember which one...but the "call end" screen that is displayed at the end of a call...had a button to be able to call back, or another to send a text...this screen was only displayed as long as the "call end" screen is displayed at the moment...

also previously when i had phone in my dock...with car dock and home dock disabled...the phones home screen would display horizontally when screen is on...is it possible to implement that?

ability to use ringtones larger than 300kb...cant not use for alarms..not sure about phone ringtone..

and i know i keep mentioning this...but anyone able to use only 3g?
[Captivate Android Development] BAleR:
Hmm.. not working, I know its there, i can boot into it via power down menu in rom. Would the 3 button fix in AIO effect this? And one more thing, can I flash a radio with clockwork? Or do i have to use odin? Thanks for the help
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Do you have 2.2 bootloaders ? do you have clockworkmod recovery installed ? I strongly advice to not flash another radio .
[Captivate Android Development] BAleR:
Im not sure, I used AIO to downgrade, then flashed your rom using the update.zip method in AIO. Before I flashed your rom I flashed clockwork with rom manager, picked captivate. I tryed to make a backup but the flash to clockwork must have gone wrong because it booted into stock recovery. BUT, after I flashed your rom, i can reboot into clockwork recovery via power down menu via your rom.

P.s. I really only wanted to try a radio because my wifi signal seems poor. Im sitting 3 or 4 feet away from my router and i got 1-2 bars
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
UPDATED TO 1.8 . Enjoy it
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
according to my need one thing was missing in fasty v1.7. that thing is:: there was no option of

sms delivery reports

in sms settings. hope to have that in fasty 1.8....

i just love ur rom.. tried many many roms.. but this is the best

Downloading fasty 1.8 now
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
tell me one thing.. can i just install v1.8 over v1.7??? or do i hv to go back to stock rom????
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
You can download another sms app on the market like handscent or go sms , those have such option .;)

You can install it in top of 1.7
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
what about my apps installed on 1.7??? do they remain as it is if i install 1.8 over 1.7??
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
i dont like handscent or go sms, they make fon slow...

is there any other option to hv delivery reports in default msging app???
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Nope they wont remain , do a back up .It needs to wipe since i made some changes to the framework.
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
ok buddy thanx a lot
[Captivate Android Development] Febby:
New update huh... I might consider it. I'm currently on CM7... I love the loads of free RAM with 2.3 love :p but 2.2 is a bit more stable wifi wise and application support from devs.
[Captivate Android Development] toneflem:
i literally just got done flashing 1.7... so can i just put 1.8 on the internal sd card and flash with cwm? luckily havent even had time to restore my backup yet so i dont have to worry about losing apps.

I don't have any signal and wifi wont work for some reason though.
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
yes you can install it over 1.7. i did the same..

just installed 1.8... works great
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
Can anybody tell me IN DETAIL how to use voltage control app????
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Give it a try , and report any feedback .
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
Everything working perfectly..........

FASTY 1.8

FAAAASST FAAAASSTER FAAAASSTEST.........
[Captivate Android Development] toneflem:
I have phone signal now, but wifi will just not work for me
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
check wifi signal of ur router
[Captivate Android Development] toneflem:
I'm assuming its fine since it has worked on every other rom i have used before. I mean it shows that it is connected, but will not actually download any pages
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Thats a good one haha

@ they guy with wifi problem , its from your phone or router , I had some1 test it and it works fine .
[Captivate Android Development] BAleR:
trying to flash in clockwork, just sitting at "finding update package"

edit: Time estimated, 2 minutes.... . . . .
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
Yeah its also working fine on me fon
[Captivate Android Development] BAleR:
hmm... I hope its not, its brand new... My laptop connects with a great signal, so, maybe its the phone? well see, Ill check some things, thanks for the tip!
[Captivate Android Development] nehal51086:
these are my current voltage control settings...these may or may not be the best for your phone...im still tweaking them...use caution...increase the amount of undervoltage slowly

since i was uploading screenshots heres a few more...hope this helps ppl determine if they want Fasty..

usage is the biggest factor in battery life...i have found my idel power draw is close to nohting...partly bc i also use an app called "green Power" that controls my data...(simply...data off when screen is off, every 30 min data on for 1 min to check for emails, data on when screen is on)

I was on fasty v1.7 when these screen shots were taken
[Captivate Android Development] toneflem:
i think i figured out the wifi issue, but i flashed a different kernel (or so i thought) so i could use the jk4 modem, but when i go into the about phone in the settings the kernel (onix) doesnt show up in the kernel version. It still shows the kernel that was packaged with the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
It shouldnt take more then 10 seconds when saying finding update package to switch , weird .

As i stated in the op , if you flash other kernel you meet loads of problems, so dont .
[Captivate Android Development] toneflem:
Well i thought it just said dont flash other modems while on this kernel. The modem included doesnt really work so well where i live so i read a kernel change must be done in order to change the modem.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes to change the modem , you need to change the kernel , however it doesnt mean that you wont face any issue . This will also affect your battery life , but you have no choice i guess.
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
whats that MODEM nd KERNEL ppl talking about???
[Captivate Android Development] miketucky350:
Heard ya there! Ive spent the last week on Cyanogenmod 7 nightly 51+ and tried MIUI. I must say they are by far the best running GB roms out. 200mb free ram on task kill vs other GB roms 75 to 120. CM7 gave me 2700 quadrant scores. Gps works damn good too. Not 1 other gingerbread rom gps works. Its just the bugs. The capacitive buttons stop working at times and the touch screen quits at times. On top the most ridiculous battery life ever. Poor call quality. Hats down to you LOSTLOGIC89. After spending time with gingerbread i have this AHH home feeling after i flashed 1.7, and everything just works like it should. Far as modem hsupa is no concern here as im stuck in edge due to poor AT&T network coverage! So Ji6 or Kb1 with audience support all the way! A+ rating on this. all versions were great. but 1.8 wont install. It throws many errors then says installation aborted. I do odin back to stock before flashing anything.
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
Hey man boot animation in this rom is very beautiful... Can i have this animation as live wallpaper?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Re download the file , perhaps the file didnt download correctly .

I ll see what i can do , but no promises lol .
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Ok guys i am working on a new transparent status bar , will upload a screenshot once the tester take it .

Edit : This will be in the upcoming release (Worked on it since morning)
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
Can someone post the stock calculator.apk that was for some reason removed from this ROM? I appreciate it!
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Here you go...
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
Whoa. Thanks for posting that but that isn't the stock calculator I'm looking for. That one is sluggish and is way to overly complicated for what I use it for.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Well you didnt specify , anyways check the market to see if they have the 1 you looking for.
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
What do you mean I didn't specify? I said the stock calculator that was removed by you from this ROM. There's only one. Lol
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I misread it , i guess haha
[Captivate Android Development] miketucky350:
Update on rom not flashing. It would not flash from jf6 at all. No big deal I just ran kies update to kb1 froyo. Rooted then flashed. Cog kernal 4.1 now cappy is flying on Fasty 1.8!! Very nice rom. Gps works no bugs. Any one else have to flash from 2.2?
[Captivate Android Development] splitnail:
na, flashed from 2.1 no problems.

Really enjoying 1.8. The new status bar looks good. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
I flashed 1.8 this morning and so far so good.

A lot of the bloatware was removable via manage applications which was nice and I haven't seen that on any other roms.

I put Launcher Pro on and removed the tw & Ericson launchers.

Removed additional bloat with Super Manager available free on the market.

I'd really like to see some extra fonts in future updates. My only other gripe is no calculator, what's with that? Anyways.

Great work, thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I will add new fonts an other things , the next release will be 2.0 .It might be my last release since i dont have a captivate and i dont have money to buy 1 .
[Captivate Android Development] Wdustin1:
What is your captivate fund up to now?

Treading the waters on Fasty 1.8
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
$100 until now

Edit : Bad news my google adsense account got disabled just received the email therefore i wont be able to take $75 which means ionly have $25.(Dam i am f*ing pissed as hell )
[Captivate Android Development] FredOak3:
I saw something that google was disabling accounts in some of their areas where folks weren't using a "real" name as their user id. Don't know if that applies but just wanted to offer that.
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
I used my real name, I have to so I can withdraw the payement. Now I hate Google.
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
was already on 2.3.4 roms, would really like to back to a stable and fast with long batt life rom even on 2.2

can anyone help with a tutorial for noobie how to get it on my cappy which is currently on Apex?

many TIA
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Go back to stock by using Odin, then root, then install clockworkmod recovery then flash my rom.
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
thanks, should I just use the ODIN3 on-click?
[Captivate Android Development] LOSTLOGIC89:
Yes since it will also return your bootloaders to 2.2.
[Captivate Android Development] Febby:
Whoa.. easy there logic, giving out bad advise mate..

Don't use Odin one click with bootloaders unless you know for a fact that your device date model isn't one of the newer ones that gets soft bricked when using Odin one click, you don't really need to flash back to stock but if you want to then look for the back to stock without bootloaders. I always just put the 2.x recovery zip as "update.zip" on the root of my sdcard and in the current recovery I have 3.x/4.x I go to apply update zip? Not so sure.. you might have to press apply update zip a second time for it to load the 2.x recovery. :)

remember new gb bootloaders from capticlvate 2.3.3 firmware work with 2.2 ROM's....
[Captivate Android Development] Febby:
.... sorry for double post.
[Captivate Android Development] gil516:
going to give this a try. tired of all the bugs and battery issues i have been dealing with. will report later after i get this going for a few days to share my experience. thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] DON2003:
am now confused and scare on flashing back to stock, really want to this great rom,

can anyone help with a simple tutorial for a noobie here? TIA
[Captivate Android Development] Febby:
Ill write you up a quick guide ...do you have the gingerbread bootloaders from the newly leaked captivate 2.3.3 ROM?
