That's a good question... :rolleyes: So you're asking if you install Obsession Blue at beginning of the OP and then you installed the Blue theme, what would change? I know from previous post that you can flash each theme right over the other, maybe the blue one is so you can get back to the original if that's what you decided you like best after trying the rest :cool:

edit: After looking a bit closer, you'll notice that the first one in the OP is over 200mb and the other colors are around 65mb. So obviously you'd want to flash the first one first then if you want to try another color go for it.
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
haha , I toned down the Contrast of the animation in the drop down menu I fixed all the icons that were 'multicolor' instead of blue these were subtile pinkish purple dots here and there they are now gone in the latest blue . is it worht it t flash ? if your runing the TW4 then yes definitley , if your running custom launcher with custom icons then maybe not .. In the zip latest gmail / email / sms were all fixed/updated ( some were havin FCs but they all gone now)

Same for allth eother thems that were fixed they all have the same fixes ..

hey I flash form one theme to another allthe time just for fun , does anyone feels like doing alittle mix of 2or 3 themes ? see what it looks like Im sure blue and green woudl lok awesome or even red and blue ..
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Superb. That was the answer I was looking for. I use Launcher Pro but with the rom icons so I'll flash the update zip too
[Captivate Android Development] -Perp-:
Blue and orange!

So my status bar keeps force closing. Once when I plugged it into the charger, once while it was on the charger and once when I tried to unlock it. No idea why its doing it either. Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
no idea at all , mind telling us whats on/off in the quickpanel ?

mayeb one of them doesnt liek somehting or maybe just a bad flash .. not sure

no problem here .

Landscape mode issue. Only seems to work in gallery and phone dialer screens. I only ever use LS when looking at pictures.

How do I turn the darn thing of for the dialer ? Even when unchecked it still flips in phone mode annoying the hell out me
[Captivate Android Development] Tweak4fun:
Flashing this tomorrow night!
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
I had the same issue. Email FC, status bar FC, and another I can't remember at the moment. The email was broken, replaced it. The status bar cleared itself, right after I flashed TalonDEV 0.5.1 RC1 .

I believe I also did a manual cache and dalvik clear with a fix permission behind the flash.

My status bar also crashed earlier tonight right as I was pulling it off of the charger.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
I take that back. Status bar force close JUST happened. Had XDA on hold, was opening up angry birds rio, at which time angry birds froze for about ten seconds. Went back to XDA to report back, was stick in server connection. 19% battery life remaining. No charger involved.

Is there anything else I can do to help report this issue if it continues?

Running first Obssession Blues w/ r2d2 fix. going to try and work logcat out for you.

is there a big enough change between the first and current version of obssession to merit a re-flash? i got everything settled in and working great, so of course i am a little hesitant to re-flash. lol.

its weird, as i said, the status bar FC happened to me before i replaced the email apk and flashed talon 0.5.1 RC1 1200/340. no sooner did i post that the issue was resolved somehow, and bam, the status bar FC'ed on me. lol.

EDIT - question, i have terminal emulator found here(https://market.android.com/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en) installed.

i typed logcat-enable and enter. it ran and told me to reboot. exactly what i expected.

now how do i pull the error if/when it happens? the links i came across talk about the

emulator itself, the shell, commands and even how the install abd. but nothing on how to pull the log itself from my cappy.

if you can shoot me a link or provide me with the steps of how to pull the log itself from the cappy, i would be grateful. tnx.
[Captivate Android Development] fritzgerald:
Plug your phone into the computer. Open a command prompt and type "adb logcat>c:\logcat.txt". Let it run and once it slows down you can close out. The logcat will be saved to "c:\logcat.txt". Alternately you can pull "/data/log/ dumpstate_app_error.txt.gz" and attach that. If you've restarted your phone since the last statusbar FC you'll have to wait until it does it again before you pull the logcat with command prompt or it wont show the error. dumpstate_app_error.txt.gz will still have it though.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Anybody else getting FC's on the clock and if so know a fix before I pull a clock apk from another ROM and go through all that jazz ?
[Captivate Android Development] -Perp-:
which theme are you running? The blue one works. If you want it themed, pull the icon on whatever color you want and put out in the blue clock apk
[Captivate Android Development] fritzgerald:
Green clock works just fine here.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
okay. so both steps are from the pc?

you say " type "adb logcat>c:\logcat.txt" ", this would be entered in the terminal emulator itself on the Cappy, correct?

The cappy would need to be mounted for this to run, correct?

the alt step you mentioned sounds like i "pull" the file from the Cappy. Am i getting that right as well?

To create the .gz file mentioned, do i just let Terminal Emulator run on the cappy by running the "logcat-enable" procedure? It will be created from Terminal Emulator when a error occurs?

And the location would be inside the "/data/log/" folder, named "dumpstate_app_error.txt.gz"

If this is correct, than running Terminal Emulator in the background sounds like the preferred option.

I am sorry for the noobness, I am savvy with computers to a point, lol. just want to get it right so i can be effective enough to help with issues like this.

Tnx for the reply and all the hard work being done.

EDIT - extra question - does a "dumpstate_app_error.txt.gz" file get made when I enabled logcat? I just looked into my cappy using root explorer and already have that file in place, but i am not aware of an error occurring since I posted the issue earlier. As of right now, I should be running Terminal Emulator in the back ground with logcat enabled.
[Captivate Android Development] GoombaVinnie:
Download alogcat, its runs constantly and don't need to worry bout adb and the such.
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
Dunno if this was asked, but for the dialer, is it possible to have the 4 tabs at the top instead of the bottom? Hoping to install this ROM tonight.
[Captivate Android Development] afrojoc:
Hows the battery life on this rom? I've been thinking about flashing it since I love all the different themes and stuff but I tend to get bad battery life. Like 10% drain per hour.
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
Sure thing is for what Color ?
[Captivate Android Development] geokilla:
I'm planning for green tonight :D
[Captivate Android Development] -Perp-:
Light user, I charge every other night.

Mostly texts, short calls, just under 3 hours display time
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
Battery life is amazing. Much better than JVR it feels.

I also get status bar FC every 1-2 days. Wifi and bt are off.
[Captivate Android Development] afrojoc:
Well thanks for the feedback! Ill definitely give this rom ago sometime maybe this weekend ;)

[Captivate Android Development] fritzgerald:
I use mine for work so calls and email all day long. Switched to a full 100% battery at 11am PST its now 730pm PST music player has been on the entire time only paused when using the phone or a notification comes up and my battery is at 49%. Good enough for you?
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
Status bar crashed again. I got the dumpstate_app_error.txt file from the crash. Someone want me to send it to them?
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
here is my logcat. was having an issue ul it to xda. so i unpacked and repacked it. it should be intact. let me know if there if there is a problem or you need anything else. got to enable logcat again.

tnx.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
I don't get near that. Not bad battery but no where close to yours. Spcefic settings or just a bettery battery perhaps ?
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
No specific settings.. amoled drains battery thers no way around. keep it off as often as possible ull see huge difference
[Captivate Android Development] fritzgerald:
Could be settings since both my batteries last about the same. The only real battery killer for me is youtube.

And that. Music may be playing but the screen is off about 90% of the day.
[Captivate Android Development] GoombaVinnie:
Status bar just fc, who can I email the dumpstate to?
[Captivate Android Development] m37h:
Status bar FC, happened when I was plugging in to USB and trying to pull down the menu.

For me the biggest difference in battery life is using wifi. Usually I use wifi in the office and at home, then I decided to turned it off all the time to see the difference. I gained 30-40% better battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
These dialers wont flash...anyone know why? :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] fuloplori:
Try extracting dialertabactivity.apk from the zip and drop it in system/app folder with a root explorer and then reboot. Allways do backups first.
[Captivate Android Development] m37h:
Just a note, at least for me, I found the ROM to be very laggy before I re-enabled voodoo lagfix.
[Captivate Android Development] rye&ginger:
I had tried this before and did so again now. Did not work. Very odd as I've never had CWM zips or root file copying not work.

I also tried TiBu uninstall, reboot, then drop the file into system/app. The files had the newer file dates but they just did not work.

Maybe they aren't compatible with JVT or there is some other issue.
[Captivate Android Development] white00gt:
One more thing you can try, might work using wonder side loader if the .apk is signed sideloader will install it, not guranteed but worth a shot
[Captivate Android Development] fuloplori:
Sry mate, sounds like an incompatibility issue. Can't think of anything else then to mod the default dialer that comes with the rom. If u really want a different dialer then I'd suggest replacing the pngs inside dialertabactivity.apk/res/drawable-hdpi with the ones from ur desierd dialer. This involves a lil work and I bet u'll have fun in the process (specially once it's done). U could try with 7zip (or winrar) to replace the pngs ,make sure to replace the pngs with the correct name and not adding any more then the folder allready contains. If u'd get FC's with the 7zip method then use apk manager to decompile the apk, then modify the pngs in the folder and recompile as system app. More info about Apk Manager found here, gl ;)
[Captivate Android Development] afrojoc:
Yeah the screen does drain a lot for me. I'm a big texter so my screen is on a lot but I can last through a day on a captivate based rom and not have to charge unless I sleep. Anything that can get me about 17 hours of battery is perfect.
[Captivate Android Development] irishvandal:
anyone know if there is any easy way to rip/delete the pulldown out of pdiddy remix and replace/install it with the obssession pulldown? this of course is concering the cwm flash pack. just to clarify,

dl pdiddy remix theme

rip/delete pdiddy remix pulldown out of pdiddy remix theme cwm

replace/install obssession into pdiddy remix theme

followed by cwm flash of pdiddy remix onto cappy and NOT have pdiddy remix pulldown but have obssession pulldown.

tnx ahead. i hope it is an easy swap of files inside the archive.

I have done this many times before so that is why its confusing as to why its not working now, also I just copied the phone.apk and dialertabactivity.apk from system/app to my PC, and they already have the artwork for the dialer and phone I want to use!

This is weird. :confused:

Yes, the updated APKs are in the system/app folder but they do not run...the stock ones do somehow. How is that possible?

What I did was use Ghost Exploer to copy those APKs from system/app to SD card, and then using FTP to copy from SD card to my PC.

Thanks but I can't find the Talon Kernel file in the OP, can you link me please? I want to make sure I get the right files.
[Captivate Android Development] Gromlakh:
1. Easy.

2. If you're already running an i9000 ROM, you have GB bootloaders, so you don't need to reflash.

3. Yes, you can flash straight over top of it. Do not flash back to stock, unless you want to waste time.

This only happened to me after I switched lock screens. Glass unlock is what I'm using now and I have no issues whatsoever
[Captivate Android Development] fuloplori:
In my case I had to have the voodoo conversion previously done (had to have the voodoo folder and files on my sd) then as it's listed in the OP disable it. So I'd suggest that once after u flashed talon let it boot up and do the voodoo conversion after which it should automagicly restart ur phone, if not restart it into cwm and disable voodoo lagfix and now finally flash the rom.

Anyone have the phone.apk misteriously just dissapear from the phone altogether. I've had it happen twice so far. I can still receive calls but if I press the phone icon it says can't launch activity and when you look in the app drawer it's gone.

Ive had trouble replacing the phone and dialer APKs, so yes there might be something odd going on with them.

Specially I replaced the APKs, but they did not take. If I extracted them from the phone, they had the artwork I wanted them to have.

Maybe there is some other place in the ROM the APKs are also kept? I dont see how it makes sense.

Bluetooth issue

Hey dagr8 and all the obsessed,

Big fan. You pulled me from two other good roms (Mosaic and Apex), so that says a lot.

Got a weird issue - I'm trying to pair a headset to my phone (Motorola somethingorother), and when it's about to pair, the phone apk force closes. I'm running the latest Talon and Thunderbolt scripts. Any ideas, suggestions, etc would be appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] scottcwhite:
Download the blue them off the Mosaic VII thread and pull the dialeractivitytab.apk and phone.apk from the sys/app and put on your phone's SD card. Then use an file explorer (I use ES File Exp) and go into the phone's sys/app and delete the two files named above off your phone. REBOOT. Now go to your SD and select those to files, copy and paste them into your phon'es sys/app folder. REBOOT. Go back into the folder, find them, single click and INSTALL. After installing both. Reboot. Your done.

There may be other methods but I find rebooting after each procedure results in ZERO issues for me so I stick to what works. This will work with any app pulled from any rom

Is this different from a standard boot animation ?
[Captivate Android Development] fritzgerald:
Yes. It's very different. I've not been able to get it to work either. But yet I haven't looked into it very closely.
[Captivate Android Development] designfears:
The app works by finding where the bootanimation file is inside of /system/bin and replacing it with Chainfire's boot-dmesg script. If i renamed the original bootanimation file the app fails to install boot-dmesg. Just an observation but it shows it should work.

Chainfire suggested symlinking bootanimation to boot-dmesg but everytime i tried

cd /system/bin
ln -s bootanimation boot-dmesg

would result in "link failed Read-only file system" or "link failed File exists"

RootExplorer said /system was rw.
