Can you guess how I knew that you were not in download mode before you plugged the USB in :p

I have been in a hurry or preoccupied and done the exact same thing.
[Captivate Android Development] bimmernut318:
it does feel kinda strange :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] bebopblues:
I got that KH3 Package you linked to work, now the phone is booting up to Eclair 2.1. But now I can't get it to go into recovery or download mode. The combination of buttons and usb cable does nothing, it just boots normally to Eclair. Now how do I flash kernel or bootloader if I can't get into recovery or download mode?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Kh3 is gb 2.3.4 not eclair. So pressing both volume keys and connecting usb boots up the phone instead of download mode? wierd
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
is there is a way to have a 5 icon Touchwhiz launcher?
[Captivate Android Development] bebopblues:
Sorry, I meant that other link he sent me to. Anyway, I got eclair running now, and recovery (vol +/- power) and download (vol +/- USB cable) modes don't work anymore. I'm screwed again?
[Captivate Android Development] low99:
Maybe your phone doesn't have the 3 buttons combo, you can either use adb command, or use the 3 button combo fix here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=812434)

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BECAUSE IF NOT, YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE IF YOU HAVE MISMATCHED BOOTLOADERS, I AM NOT TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE.

## EDIT ## : sorry, I've also forgotten that if you flash the gb bootloaders, you'll get your 3 buttons combo back.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Great work watsa. Been running this beaut for a couple weeks with 0 problems.

Side note: where the hell are the kh themes!?
[Captivate Android Development] low99:
^ watsa mentioned before that he wants to complete the ROM first so that updating the theme wouldn't be a pain (or so it seems).
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
U owned me with that quick reply. So surprised to see a response that quick on a refresh. Thanks bro. To the uot.
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
It seems to give two short vibrations - one on the button press and a second one on the release. Yeah, feels weird and mushy :(

[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
Personally, I don't use key combo much as sometimes it is just irritating. I prefer adb or Android shell (terminal emulater) or extended power menu.

ADB requires you to have Android sdk & Java sdk installed on your PC. After you have, enable your phone's USB debugging, connect the USB cable, write following command on command prompt:

Adb reboot download

Your phone should enter download mode.

Second method requires you to root your current stock eclair. You can use one click root. After rooting, install Android terminal emulater from market, type following Commands:

su
reboot download
[Captivate Android Development] bebopblues:
Thanks for that. I got the Android SDK and able to get to the download mode with this command "adb reboot download". I just flashed the KH3 Package and now running Stock 2.3.4.

So does this mean I have CWM3 now and can flash to Pinnacle?
[Captivate Android Development] low99:
Well, I didn't use the flasher kit in the OP before, so I'm not too sure, try vol + vol - and power to see whether you get to cwm3, if not you can flash boog's kernel and get cwm from there and flash pinnacle.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
nope you have to flash kernel from flasher kit to get CWM. Remember to place ROM on sd card before doing so. Flash kernel, once done pull battery out, use button combo to get into recovery... then flash pinnacle
[Captivate Android Development] bebopblues:
Just reboot to download mode via adb command, then flashed boog's kernel, boot up, reboot to recovery via adb command, confirm I have CMD4.x, reboot, then I placed the pinnacle_1.2.zip on the SD card, reboot, did the vol+/- power combo buttons, got into CWM (YAY!!! :D), installed Pinnacle, delete factory data, wiped cache, reboot again. Pinnacle up and running. WOW.. THANKS GUYS, YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!! :)
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
what other kernels can we use with this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
There is only one that works with any KH3 rom and that is included. There is no source available yet like for I9000 roms
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
boo :( with wich ROMs can I use the talon kernel? I really like this rom, the only thing i will suggest to the dev is, to be able to change the position of the toggles, and if it is possible, be able to have a 5 icon Touchwhiz dock!
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Try Apex if you want to use Talon. When you flash it a folder called apex would be created on ur sd card, inside it u can find a CWM flashable 5 icons TW4...

In case u havent noticed yours truly is responsible for apex and pinnacle
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
i didnt understand the last part you said, anyway, but i think apex doesnt have the SGS II apps that this ROM has, or im mistaken?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Nope it has all same apps and widgets, infact more
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
oh, ok, if you can, what do i need to do to change from this rom to apex's?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
just download and flash from CWM
[Captivate Android Development] hernan078:
thanks!, last question, in GB rom can i use nandroid backups to go back and forth between roms? can i come back to pinnacle from apex's rom?
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
I was using this ROM for about a week and was very impressed - I think it gave me the smoothest performance of any of the ROMS I've ever tried. But I did miss all the little features in Apex, and like others have mentioned, eventually the ROM would bog down, freeze up, and reboot (or power off, in my case). (FWIW I use ADW launcher, I never restore system data, and I run at 208 dpi).

I'm really looking forward to seeing what watsa does with this after the sources drop, considering the impressive job he's done without them :)

Yep you can flash pinnacle from apex. Just need to disable lagfix before doing so
[Captivate Android Development] Roof King:
All running smoothly with no issues except for trouble with 2 apps.

Weatherbug force closes every time I open it. I've cleared data, uninstalled the application and reinstalled, fixed permissions, rebooted and pretty much every thing in the book and and it still fc's. Even tried the preloaded accuweather widget which fc's ever time. No issue with any other apps.
[Captivate Android Development] bigbooty:
Got the same issue with weatherbug, fc every time. Did everything I could think of. It will not run.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
Integrated Facebook contacts problem

When I select to add the integrated facebook contact account, it prompts for my login (as normal) but it doesn't allow me to select the contacts I want. It also doesn't prompt for how often to sync but I changed the setting to sync the contacts and messages. When I go into the contacts app (after the sync supposedly happened), I don't see any facebook contacts (pictures). Do others have this problem?

Edit: My contacts app also force closes if I choose "get friends". Maybe I have a bad flash - will try again tomorrow.
[Captivate Android Development] Hunt3r.j2:
Should this be tried with Voodoo lagfix or would that be playing with fire?
[Captivate Android Development] shopealope:
I like the rom, I just miss voodoo color and I sacrificed a little speed but only slightly. But otherwise it is a great rom.

[Captivate Android Development] low99:
Always had a better liking to stock-ish ROM, but anyone found a way to sort the apps on tw launcher 4? appzorter lite from the market's not working.

Is there also a problem with social hub or IM? It seem's to take forever to load/connect.
[Captivate Android Development] Rrryan2:
It would be playing with fire at least for now, but you'd have to find a way to do it first.

I know DG eventually got ext4 added to KF1, but it took quite some time. And in any case with luck we can hope for (KH4?) sources soon...

Another minor glitch: it seems that the Power Control widget appears blank until WiFi is toggled on and off using the notification dropdown. An issue I haven't seen since about JVB or so, but at least it's a very minor issue with a known workaround.

I'm working on that. But since it is my first attempt on themes, it is going pretty slow!
[Captivate Android Development] syanz87:
i have problem with phone.apk

everytime i dial a number it gets FC while dialing. tried clearing cahe (doesnt work) tried all wipings in CWM( still get FC) Unable to dial any number...

Edit: replaced Pinnacle's Phone.apk with apex 9.2 JVR's...... Working fine now...

thanx watsaa... great work again....
[Captivate Android Development] Rrryan2:
Stock phone.apk seems to work just fine for me... maybe there's something carrier-specific (i.e. I'm using an AT&T ROM on the AT&T network so it works for me)?
[Captivate Android Development] Rrryan2:
My GPS doesn't seem to be working properly either. Using GPS Stauts I get 0/3-4 birds after multiple instances of waiting 2 min or so when it should easily be 30 sec or less, and then I get a soft reboot. Seems like AGPS data isn't being downloaded and/or applied correctly.

Attempting to dial *#32147650# to trigger AngryGPS to look at the configuration only triggers an error message, so perhaps that's related to the problem. (Maybe it didn't get deodexed properly...? And there are also some quirky permissions issues WRT the gps config files...)

It's late and I'll look at it tomorrow if Watsa or no one else has figured it out by then.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:

flashed pinnacle zip ------install complete

when i go back i got :

cant open /cache/recovery/log

cant mount /cache/recovery/last_log

cant open /cache/recovery/last_log

i removed battery and restarted the phone

it just keep boot looping to the galaxy s logo....!
[Captivate Android Development] cnu4u:
Are you on EXT4 or RFS? If your on EXT4, first you need to revert back to RFS by going to CWM disable lag fix...
[Captivate Android Development] adicool:

[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
You are not flashing with USB in, correct?

---------- Post added at 11:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:09 AM ----------

Start over with step one. On step 2 (kernel flash), use the new Boog kernel. Reboot recovery and install zip (Pinnacle).

[Captivate Android Development] adicool:
i was in a hurry so i asked thats the only phone i have so if i cud get back to froyo i wud do that and then later again try getting on GB
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Those would flash eclair/froyo bootloaders again, and now since you have updated BL try and avoid flashin them... If u have to go back to stock try cezar' safe JF6
[Captivate Android Development] adicool:
Well then i guess i will flash stock GB without bootloaders then....

i have heard mixed bootloaders cause a hard brick
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
Yep, never flash 3 button fix on GB bootloaders
[Captivate Android Development] adicool:
hmmm i just hope i get this phone running in an hour or so before i go out of station
[Captivate Android Development] jswclw:
I am still stuck in EXT4 with lagfix enabled. There have been a few messages in the past couple days on the subject. In short, voodoo errors when trying to convert back to RFS.

I don't mind losing my data as it is all on google or on my PC. Will the "wipe data/factory reset" get me back to RFS? It seems to me that it would, but I cannot find a definitive answer.

If "wipe data/factory reset" will not work, what do you suggest?

BTW...I am on the 19000 GB bootloaders, so I do need to flash the I897 GB bootloaders. That will not be a wasted step, if it is part of a solution.
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
which rom are u on? If possible flash full KH3 rom that way u get stock with I897 bootloaders. This gives u capability to flash any rom without flashing BL ever again
[Captivate Android Development] adicool:

[Captivate Android Development] mrhaley30705:
Cezar's safe jf6 does not contain bootloaders, and should not be used to return for warranty. Its should be ok to use both, but you don't really need to use both. Just the one click should be good.
