Now on Pinnacle 1.1.1 + kernel support Ext4+ voodoo, work great ^^!
[Captivate Android Development] tamanaco:
I'm currently using Pinnacle 1.3 with the KI2 modem downloaded from the Evolution site and installed via CWM. I just noticed that there is a new Boog's kernel with KI1 and KI2 injected. Are there any advantages in this new Boog's kernel that I'm not getting with my current platform? If there are advantages, would I be able to install this new kernel by using CWM's install zip from sdcard or do I need to follow a more complex process?
[Captivate Android Development] laihafloyd:
Check the thread for the ki1 kernel with voodoo lagfix. I just flashed over 1.3 with no issues. Its still beta, but I had no problems.
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Do u have voodoo control plus? It won't load the sound driver for me with that kernel on ext4
[Captivate Android Development] Boldizzle:
That's strange, Voodoo Control Plus loads the Sound Driver fine on my phone running Pinnacle on EXT4 though I'm only on 1.2, battery life on 1.3 wasn't as good for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Boldizzle:
Yeah it's bizarre because I never had the issue at all on cognition. Could be a bad flash then maybe or even a bad download. Might redownload & start from scratch.

hi watsa,

will you plan hacking data speed so we can use hsdpa, i see for now maximum data speed is only at 3g :(

It is only on weekends that I have spare time to flash updates so that works great for me. :D To show my appreciation, here is another small donation - Confirmation number: 4XX01956KS762170K. Thanks for all your hard work. I tried Apex 9.2 earlier and it was great - My favorite I9000 based ROM at this point. Pinnacle will undoubtedly be my favorite I897 ROM. I haven't flashed the update yet. I'm really interested to see how the GPS fix works :cool:

Hmm....Im getting the msg saying that its not compatible. Let me try reinstalling

Edit: appears I lost root. Can't get into tibu to restore voodoo control app. Any help?
[Captivate Android Development] Boldizzle:
That's strange that you'd lose root. I wonder if the One-Click Root program will restore root to your phone?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

I used to use back when I started rooting my phone when installing custom ROMs weren't as hassle free as they are now.

Give that a go.
[Captivate Android Development] laihafloyd:
This is a quote from boog from one of his kernel threads, I think it was from the kh3 with init.d thread. Might be a good idea to go there to see how others fixed root. Of course, this is for people who lost root flashing his modded kh3, not the ki1, but hopefully doesn't matter
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
thanks a lot for the info. will report back.

still nothing ;/
[Captivate Android Development] Joe777G:
Well I switched to Pinnacle a day and half ago and my phone is consistently power itself off. Possibly missing calls and waiting for my phone to turn back on isn't fun so on to the next rom.
[Captivate Android Development] snowake:
That is some useful feedback! Thank you so much for informing XTA members of your user error. Watsa, you should be ashamed of posting this ROM that works so well for so many for free, especially since you take up to an hour to provide support for your hard work!

Joe, if you bothered to read the forum rules, you would understand that no flaming is allowed. If you do not know what flaming means then I suggest you re-think using custom ROMs and use stock Froyo. If you do know what flaming means then... well no flaming is allowed so I will let you draw your own conclusions from context.

Half of the issues users have are b/c of EBCAK (error between chair and keyboard). In the future try reflashing or asking for help in the relevant forum when encountering serious issues. We have all had them and learned by working through each one.

Thanks Watsa and good luck with your new phones!
[Captivate Android Development] Boldizzle:
I like how you're quick to blame the ROM and have decided that ROM hopping is going to solve your problem.

That problem description really doesn't tell us anything so how do you expect anyone to help you out?

[Captivate Android Development] mfpreach:
I really like the look and feel of this rom, been running it for a couple of weeks.

I have noticed that the battery isn't that great though, it barely lasts a day whereas on other roms ie. Apex i would get at least a day.

Any way to improve battery life? Ie. flashing another kernel? Should I flash to 1.2?

THanks.
[Captivate Android Development] Rrryan2:
You're doing something wrong then. Battery life on Pinnacle is the best I've ever experienced or even heard of on Captivate without extraordinary austerity measures like turning off data etc.

This was light, but capable usage. GPS, data, wifi ennabled. Lookout security, multiple widgets, TW3 launcher...
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
Check to make sure all CPU frequencies are being used (CPU spy, System tuner, etc). Sometimes the ROM seems to get "stuck" at the high end (800 and 1000). I have seen that a couple times and rebooting has always fixed it.

Can someone tell me what is the newest kernel that works with Pinnacle 1.3? There are so many new boog threads I dont know what to flash.... Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] mattern1974:
Get the new Corn kernel that enables lagfix here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1294477

This kernel has made me decide to stick with Watsa's Pinnacle for the duration until source is released (probably unit hell freezes over). The speed and features are an amazing combination!

I ODIN flash the tar file from download mode. BE PATIENT!! Takes a while to boot and the Voodoo voice sounds like a chipmunk on speed. When it finally boots (sometimes 10 minutes+) you will see the speed difference.

Also, I use this will Tegrak overclock (paid version) for even more speed.
[Captivate Android Development] GuitsBoy:
I followed your suggestion, and it is indeed quite fast!

My only problem is that it seems like every KI1 and KI2 kernel leaves me without a functional capacitive home button. I feel the haptic feedback, but it just doesn't do anything. Even a long press does not pull up task manager any more. Anyone have any ideas on this one?

Edit: I should add that the search button does not work either. The menu and back buttons work as usual.
[Captivate Android Development] shadvich:
To anyone flashing to the newer leaks from Pinnacle 1.3 - has battery life gotten better on KJ2 and the like? Or am I just better off just flashing one of the newer lagfix enabled kernels with Pinnacle 1.3?
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
I would stay on Pinnacle if your really pleased with what you have now. KH3 and KJ2 are very similar. I am still running Pinnacle on RFS because its just super snappy and the battery is ridiculous. That and, among other things, nothing has made me eager enough to be like "zOmg must flash meow"!!
[Captivate Android Development] tamanaco:
I also just installed the CornKernel with Voodoo Lagfix on Pinnacle 1.3 and find that the phone responds better. I'm not experiencing any issue with buttons. The one thing I noticed is that the injected recovery in this Kernel is CWM Dark Core 3.0.2.8 while the one in Boog's Kernel was CWM 4.0.1.5 (Orange). Am I loosing any functionality with this "earlier" version of CWM?

Btw, I'm using the KI2 modem and it appears to work OK. No blinding speeds. I'm in NYC and I noticed that there are two new modems (KJ1 and KJ2) Has anyone tried any of these modems on Pinnacle 1.3 with CornKernel 1.01 in NYC?
[Captivate Android Development] mattern1974:
I don't think there is any functionality lost using CWM Dark Core 3.0.2.8....I'm not even sure of the differences to CWM 4.0.1.5 besides the obvious color changes.

I'm using the newest leaks modem (KJ2) and my signal is vastly better for some reason. I don't do much web browsing off of wifi so it doesn't matter to me about download speeds.
[Captivate Android Development] basily:
Wow! Seriously? 2 days with all that on? Don't get me wrong, I love Pinnacle, and it is at least as good as any other ROM I've tried for battery life, but I don't even get a full day on one charge...
[Captivate Android Development] GuitsBoy:
It wound up being an issue reloading some settings with TiBu, going from 2.3.4 to 2.3.5. Showing a little restraint during the restore patched things right up.
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
I get two full days easily on pinnacle at minimum brightness, no gps, little wifi here and there. Two hours screen time one hour of phone calls. Its the best. I can get screenies!
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
ive gotten FIVE hours screen time in 20 hours before.
[Captivate Android Development] gilpdawg:
Just jumped into this ROM yesterday. I've been a total CM guy ever since I bought my first Android phone last year (Aria, 2 shattered screens later I said hell with it and got a Cappy, that thing had the most fragile screen on the planet) and I gotta say, I may not go back to CM until when/if GB source drops. This thing is dope. Best battery life I've ever seen on a Cappy.

Odd, though, I tried to flash the 1.3 update and I got a bootloop, and rolling back into 1.2 using Nandroid left me stuck on the ATT World Phone screen. I wound up flashing back to stock Eclair and reflashing 1.2 from scratch, so now I'm scared to try it again because I don't want to go through all that again. Thanks Watsa. Look forward to using your stuff in the future if I ever get a SG 2.
[Captivate Android Development] Rrryan2:
Nandroid isn't working yet in the kernel and probably won't until source drops. Boog's thread for it has some pretty dire warning about not using it...
[Captivate Android Development] gilpdawg:
Good to know. I know some ROMs have had issues with nandroid but I wasn't aware of it on this one. Guess I should be more careful.
[Captivate Android Development] xpakage:
It is more of a kernel problem than a ROM problem.
[Captivate Android Development] gilpdawg:
Reflashed, and it's fine now. I *think* I might have forgotten to unplug the cable from USB before flashing that first time. I should know better.
[Captivate Android Development] momulah:
Any black themes for this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] watsa:
sadly none
[Captivate Android Development] Yuna:
Hey, those who have incredible battery life. do you turn auto-sync off?
[Captivate Android Development] low99:
^ yes, only turning it on once a day or lesser.
[Captivate Android Development] Yuna:
So, this is the real reason for big battery life ;)
[Captivate Android Development] basily:
Are we talking about turning off just "Auto-sync" or also "Background data"?
[Captivate Android Development] Yuna:
Only about auto sync only.
[Captivate Android Development] rjyanj:
I use push e-mail and auto-sync .. I can usually go 30 hours without recharging. 1+ hour of talk time, 3-4 hours display, wi-fi always on.

I've used too many ROMS to count for my Captivate and this is by far the best battery life I've ever had on this phone.

It. Just. Works. -- I love it.
[Captivate Android Development] Razzman:
I don't turn anything off and i'm still getting two days out of the battery which is fine for me. With heavy use i can still get 14-16 hours.

On another note i'm sure glad Pinnacle is what it is. I tried two of the KJ2 roms yesterday just for giggles and they both have issues, one of them there's no rigtone when the phone rings! Both had lag issues and one would randomly power down! Problem as I see it is these leaks are coming out faster than ever and everyone wants to be the first with a rom for them without really testing them in all conditions or scenarios. I'm staying with Pinnacle!

I really hope a good dev picks this rom up and continues the great work Watsa did with it. Just a few more tweaks and this would be unbeatable imo. :D
[Captivate Android Development] randyyy:
Totally agree with you. I have the same results and I also love it... Simply wonderful!
[Captivate Android Development] fchowla:
+1

Pinnacle is definitely one of the best -- smooth, stable, great battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] rrlara:
Since we are talking about battery life for Pinnacle 1.3, here's mine last night. After heavy use for more than two hours on 3G, one reboot, and drain the battery to less than 15% for a bit. Turned off "Data" (from the notification Data toggle, I suppose I was using Edge?) left my phone alone without use for couple of hours with NO charge, the phone battery magically charged up to almost 30%. All by itself??? Explain? I've been having ok battery life but have you guys seen this before? Kinda wicked.....
[Captivate Android Development] afrojoc:
Ahhh man I wish there was an update for kj3 or a new stable Samsung leak. I always have to have the newest of the new when it comes to flashing. But I miss pinnacle :(
[Captivate Android Development] RashaMatt:
+1

Unfortunately for me, without a modem that lets me lock 850, my signal here is a disaster, constantly switching bands and dropping packets. And since it's my only internet connection, that's a deal-breaker :(

I also really miss Voodoo color and a working nandroid, but nothing to do about it but wait for source to drop and for the devs to work their magic.

If those issues don't matter to you then this is still the best ROM I've used in terms of speed and smoothness.

I just flashed boogs KJ3 kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1294849)

[Captivate Android Development] -Thrive-:
Back on Pinnacle

Tried KJ2 and it was a pretty good ROM but a little more laggy and battery life was not as good as Pinnacle 1.3. So I'm going to stay here for a while because I have too much on my phone to keep flashing these wipe ROMs that keep getting leaked. So I spent some time making a matted blues theme for Pinnacle with UOT and manually hacked SystemUI.apk and grabbing and manually installing a couple of mattedblues themed apks from an i9000 forum. Here are the results. I will post attachments if anyone is interested.

can this be flashed over Stock-ROM][2.3.5][I897UCKI2]One-click Odin with Boog's KI1/KI2 Kernel No Bootloaders
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Looks really good I am interested whenever you get the time to post the files...
[Captivate Android Development] mbc663:
Awesome work man. Sharing would definitely be appreciated by many.
[Captivate Android Development] -Thrive-:
If you are talking about the theme one post up, no because it uses Watsa's customized Framework.res.apk and SystemUI.apk with scrolling 9 quick panel icons that is based on KH3 ROM and I think the framework changed with the KI1/KI2 ROMs. Would probably loop.

If you are talking about the Pinnacle 1.3 ROM, sure since I assume you must already have GB bootloaders, CWM, and RFS file system.
[Captivate Android Development] -Thrive-:
OK. here are the files. Flash the UOT Pinnacle mattedblues.zip file from CWM. I suggest you mount data and sdcard, wipe cache partition, and Dalvik cache before flashing. This file includes the status bar icons, the quickpanel icons, the modified pulldown, and the modified notification area. I don't have a revert so keep in mind that if you don't like the results and want to go back, you either have to flash another UOT Kitchen file that uses the original framework.res.apk and SystemUI.apk from Pinnacle or use Rootexplorer to replace these files with the originals from KH3.

Also attaching 3 mattedblues themed apk files that I got from the Fezzy102 mattedblues theme in the Fusion VIII thread (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16968046&postcount=3). If you want others, you can download and unzip Fezzy102's matted blues theme and copy the themed apks from the system/app folder. To install these, you need to replace the existing files of the same name in your /system/app folder with these themed apks using RootExplorer or comparable file manager. I suggest making a backup copy of the originals before doing the replace.

I have had this happen before with UOT files. Did you get the rest of the theming? Are the green status bar icons the only thing that didn't flash correctly? I am quite sure I posted the correct file but am re-attaching the one straight off my phone via Dropbox just to be sure. I suggest re-flashing and make sure you clear the caches and do the mounts.
