What Rom were u running before (CyanogenMod, MIUI) ?? If so, then u need to flash back to Stock (doesn't have to be eclair 2.1) and Re-partition (u will need the corresponding .pit file).

The E:Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0p1) has to do with ur internal sdcard and external sdcard.

If this doesn't help, then I am not sure of what else... be sure to give some more info.
[Captivate Android Development] JiroPrinz8:
Anyine tried the latest corn..?
[Captivate Android Development] RTBee:
On it now. I had an issue with the gallery not recognizing my sd card with 6.02, but with 6.03, no problems at all! :)

Loosing StatusBar pulldown Menu??

Illuminance 3.0

Firm: 2.3.5

Base: KK4

Kernel: 2.6.35.7 UCKK4-CL614489

Build: 3.0 UCKK4

Selecting the Flashlight Icon on the Statusbar menu causes a "Force close" systemui stopped unexpectedly. then the Statusbar Menu disappears. Only way to get it back is a reboot.

Anyone else seeing this problem?

I'm changing to the Samurai-1.4.3 Kernel & installing the 3.0.0 update to see if that will correct the problem.
[Captivate Android Development] RTBee:
Flashlight toggle on status bar doesn't work as its for an led flash, which our captivates don't have. So don't use that one. I believe its mentioned in op.

[Captivate Android Development] Wdustin1:
You just gotta try them all the best one for me still is KJ3 I try the new modems and keep going back to that one
[Captivate Android Development] glwilliams4:
Couple of things. I'm on 3.0.1 and I am still randomly missing texts. I haven't even installed TiBu, so that's not the problem. Also, i went to install the V6 Supercharger script, and found out I didn't have root anymore. I followed the FAQs on the website and when I try to update SU binaries it says I don't have any.

Help

I feel like such an idiot im not a noob and i know there are how to threads but i've flashed before but a little while ago i forgot. i'm coming from Serendipity VII i just need to know what stock rom i need to go to in order to flash Illuminance and do i need the stock rom with boatloaders or without? Please help thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] NiTRoN69:
It ist based on gingerbread than you don't need bootloaders since you allready have them otherwise get latest stock GB w/BL release and then flash over it
[Captivate Android Development] Thechamp2345:
How do i know if its gingerbread based and what is gb?
[Captivate Android Development] startngate:
SVII is a i9000 based ROM. You may want to install the AT&T (Captivate) Bootloaders first.
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:
There are very good Installation instructions at the OP's website here... http://illuminance.weebly.com/installation.html

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 PM ----------

Eclair 2.1 = i897ucjf6 (official firmware)

Froyo 2.2 = i897uckb1 (official firmware)

Gingerbread 2.3.* = i897uckf1, i897uckh3, i897ucki1, ki2, i897uckj1, kj2, kj3, i897uckk1, kk2, kk4 (leaked firmwares)
[Captivate Android Development] Thechamp2345:
So since i have an i900 i am going to flash back to I897UCKJ3 with bootloader correct?
[Captivate Android Development] gremmie:
im missing texts as well... but i do have TiBu installed. didnt restore anything with it though.. no supercharger scripts...

did you find a fix ?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
If a reboot doesn't fix your su issue then you might need to reflash the kernel at the very least or the whole ROM if the kernel flashing doesn't work.

I would suggest flashing KF1 as that's the last full wipe release. Then flash KK4 for no real reason in particular. Then flash Illuminance 3.0.0 followed by 3.0.1. Let the phone fully boot between flashes.

losing wifi passwords

Does anyone else have this problem? If I'm on a wifi network and I want to switch to another which is in range and I have connected to before, it asks me for the password (again). I'm pretty sure it didn't do this on previous ROMs that I've used...
[Captivate Android Development] wizurdofawwz:
I just wanted to say that through all of the ROMs I've used yours is the best. I love it.

SMS disappearing

Over past the past 2 weeks I have been noticing that my captivate has not been receiving some text messages. I receive about 95% of them but some of them seem to just disappear.

I am using NoLED and I actually get the NoLED notification for the text message but when I check my actual messaging inbox, there is no new message. However, I am positive that these messages were actually sent to me because when I check my ATT account online, the message log shows that these messages were indeed sent to me. Is anyone else having this problem with Illuminance with the Samurai kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] popfan:
This is the way I fixed it.

Go to Androidsu.com - download the version for froyo to Honeycomb. Flash that file.

You will find that you are also missing Busybox, you will have to download busybox installer(make sure it is the installer one not just busybox). Change the directory to /system/bin/ or create the folder /system/xbin and install there.

I have not tried the supercharger script thing yet, but this should let it install.
[Captivate Android Development] pupochek:
My daughter is on Pinnacle with latest Corn kernel, complains about the same issue. When I was using that Captivate, never saw this problem. My wife is on a same setup, never complains. Main difference, my daughter sends/gets several hundred messages a day, we average in tens (and even that is an exaggeration) :-)). So being a complete ignoramus as far as Android/Linux goes, I would still venture an opinion that this is a scaling problem (and not sure on whose side, AT&T's or the phone's)...:rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] Graysonh:
I would really like to flash Illuminance 3 however I have something that I've been wondering about for a while now.

The first GB ROM on my cappy was SVII. Right now im on Apex 9.3 running the latest Talon kernel.

However, sometimes my phone acts really weird and just laggs for a while or freezes. I am currently using i9000 bootloaders, so I don't know if that has any effect (I've been out of things for a while).

What is the best way to get a perfectly fresh and clean install of Illuminance 3?

Any help is appreciated!
[Captivate Android Development] 4-2ndtwin:

Here ya go...There are very good Installation instructions at the OP's website here... http://illuminance.weebly.com/installation.html

Umm...see the Clean Installation Procedure ...... :D
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
You'll need to get the S1JE4.pit file and stock KK4 w/bootloaders. Do a Factory reset of your phone then flash KK4 using the pit with repartition checked then download an I897 based kernel with CWM and flash it via Odin then Flash Illu 3 followed by Illu 3.0.1.
[Captivate Android Development] Graysonh:
What is the difference in outcome between the way the website tells me to do it and this way?
[Captivate Android Development] FreddieP:
Hi, Please pardon my lack of understanding...

The latest .pit from samfirmware corresponds to KH3. Is there a different .pit that should be flashed with KK4?

The latest available from the Captivate stock ROM thread is KK1. Is there a stock KK4 w/ BL available elsewhere? Would another stock GB ROM work in the above procedure, maybe one with CWM injected?

I'd like to get a clean start as I'm having some stability issues after flashing from stock KJ3 w/ BL to get to GB, then Illuminance 1.1, then to Apex, then back to Illuminance 3.0.

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] JiroPrinz8:
Hey guys, just had thia issue happen to me last night and today, when charging the phone, it gives a message saying "charging paused, battery temperature.maybe too.high or too low" checked the phone and it is quite hot.. have checked some other threads and no joy coz I'm sure that the ambient temperature didn't really change at all.. any ideas..?
[Captivate Android Development] RDI:
You may have a bad battery. ATT has Repair / Tech Center and they can test /replace the battery.

SGH-I897 w/ UCKK4

Illuminance 3.0.1, Ext4

Corn kernel ver. 6.03

Thunderbolt ver 2.1.7

Tegrak OC 1.3 GHz
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Remove the battery. Use a clean alcohol wipe to clean the contacts on the BATTERY. DO NOT TOUCH THE TERMINALS on the phone. Once cleaned, plug the phone in and then reinstall the battery. Wait 2 or 3 min if it still gets hot (while turned off and charging) then by all means replace the battery.

ROM Toolbox? ICS?

Does anyone have experience with ROM Toolbox or the Pro version? Does Illiminance support it?

Any plans for Illuminance ICS?
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
What do you need to know about it?
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
If Samsung/AT&T drops it, then yes.
[Captivate Android Development] steveorg:
Is it as good as it looks? Does it support Illuminance?

That doesn't sound very hopeful! :(

Soon that may not matter to me much anyway. Me and my cappy may be getting a divorce. At this point I don't see any way around our irreconciliable differences.

I treat it with love and tender care and all I get in return are crashes and freezes. I've tried everything, except perhaps Corn 6.03. I've tried several ROMs before the incomparable Illuminance, several kernels, Supercharger, Thunderbolt, removing many apps that may be at fault, cleaning battery connectors and finally replacing the battery. The problems are not nearly as bad as they used to be, but it seems that I'm out of options.

Except perhaps aLogcat. Is it reasonable to post a log here in hopes of it being reviewed?

I should mention that a few days ago, before my new battery, I may have had an odd clue. About 30 minutes after a freeze (screen dead, not responsive to any buttons) I rebooted by pulling the battery for a few seconds. Surprisingly, the last screen I saw flickered on a few times before it turned off. Is that meaningful?
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Well yes and no. I have this and the functions that work, work well. That being said, be aware you need to purchase each app (it manages) from the market as well.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Not much other then the order, the instructions haven't been updated for KK4 (but shouldn't really matter), and that I recommend doing a repartition if you're on a non-I897 GB ROM as I think the partitions might be slightly different and may or may not negatively affect your phone (probably not but better safe then sorry I say).

When you download the pit file it should have S1JE4 in the name somewhere, but short answer is it should be the one.

any of the I897 GB leaks w/bootloaders should be good enough I just recommend KK4 because it's the latest and what the ROM is based off of. If you want to use a full wipe ROM then go with KF1.

incredible lag/unresponsive phone

Sounds like a similar problem to mine - sorry no solutions here, I'm hoping for help too!

I'm on Illuminance 3.01 with Corn 6.03. I flashed thunderbolt 2.1.7. Inexplicably, a few days ago (before I flashed the latest corn and thunderbolt) my phone started to misbehave. For no apparent reason, it starts to lag worse than my 9 year old Windows Mobile device (like really bad - to the point of being unusable). Sometimes it just becomes completely unresponsive and I either have to take the battery out or hold down all 3 buttons till it boots into recovery. I deleted a bunch of apps, and I'll delete more, but I can't understand why this would be happening. Does anyone have any tips for how to proceed? How to troubleshoot this?

Oh, and has anyone ever gotten a little star on their notification that's an ad for a Mobage game and links to it on the market? I'm not sure what I installed that brought that in with it. No Mobage anything on my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Well it's got to be an app that's constantly running to push notifications like that. Go through your currently running apps with an app like Android System Information and see if you don't see one you think i suspicious and use TiBu to freeze it and see if you get anymore ads after that.
[Captivate Android Development] basily:
Yup. In case anyone else has this issue, here's what I found:

http://www.airpush.com/optout

And:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.brosmike.airpushdetector

Amazing how many apps use these push notification ads for revenue!

Not sure if this fixed my lag/unresponsive phone issue though...
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Hey im on my phone now, can someone leave me the steps to change the ascending ring. i want to get rid of it.

thanx
[Captivate Android Development] FreddieP:
How long should the factory reset take? I started it from the settings, my phone shut down, then powered back up and has been on the at&t World Phone screen now for a half hour or better.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Sorry I should have said boot into recovery and do the factory reset. Regardless it shouldn't take THAT long.
[Captivate Android Development] digitalxda:
Noob question? maybe, or just trying to avoid getting jiggy wity it

Currently on S VII, when flashing back to stock, do i go with bootloader free UCKJ3, and follow the instruction on illuminance's website for clean-installation? thanks, and looks like a great rom!
[Captivate Android Development] FreddieP:
I aborted the factory reset by pulling the battery while it was still stuck on the AT&T screen. Now when I turn on my phone it isn't getting past the AT&T screen on power up. I am able to get the phone into DL mode by holding vol up&down and then connecting USB but Odin doesn't see my phone. I can't get it into 3 button recovery either. When I try 3 button recovery the AT&T screen cycles until I release the power button. Then it stays at AT&T screen.

Any suggestions for how to get connected to Odin or what else to try to get into recovery?

Is factory reset from recovery the Delete User Data selection? Is this any different from factory reset from settings? Will it clear data on the 13GB of internal SD Card storage?
[Captivate Android Development] theevildevil:
1. If your computer isnt recognizing the phone, reinstall the captivate drivers. You can use the drivers listed in this post. Download and run the Odin for KK1 with bootloaders from here . Then connect your phone in download mode (i.e. shut down phone + plug the cable) then click the start button in Odin. this should flash KK1. Follow Clean installation instructions from Illu's site

2. Factory reset: to the best of what i have gone through, it does clean your Phone's internal memory (except, ofcourse the ROM files) but I may be not be 100% correct
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
The moment you see the ATT splash screen release ALL buttons

What kind of computer are you trying to use? Laptop or desktop? If it is a DT, in most cases, you can only use the rear usb ports. While the front may work occasionally the rear is a direct connect to the motherboard. The front ports don't have the same voltage ratings as the rear and therefore causes this issue

If it is a Laptop theevildevil suggestions may work
[Captivate Android Development] jgchaval:
I'm loving this rom, especially with the ICS Theme :) Im running Illuminance 3.0.1 on Samurai Kernel 1.4.3

A few things I've encountered...

* Is it just me or the Gallery app takes a lot to load when opened?

* Is Bluetooth working, 'cause it never turns on when enabled... (or is it just me?)

* Power Controls Widget is not displaying properly. When added, no icons appear on the widget, is more of like placeholders for where the icons should be
[Captivate Android Development] IlluminatedOne:
- Gallery bug is a known issue in recent i897 GB leaks. Try alternative Gallery Fix from website. Make sure to clear data for Gallery3D app before/after flash.

- Bluetooth should work. If not, then you might need to flash again. This issue seems to appear randomly for some people. Could not figure out the cause behind it.

- Toggle GPS on and off from Quick Panel once or reboot phone, Power Widget will be fine afterwards. This issue is related to deodexed framework, have been there since KH3.

Random FCs, broken features, slower than molasses, locks up, Piss-poor battery life.. Pure junk Illuminated.. Sorry I really love the look of it and have been suffering through it for 2 Weeks now.. Tried reinstalling 4 different times, just won't run right on my cappy, but its everything I want in a ROM, and nothing I don't want. Just wish I could get results similar to everyone else.

[Captivate Android Development] jvc73:
For me some point the gallery started working.

The Bluetooth bug appears now and then and is usually fixed by a reboot. I can't relate it to anything, except the phone becoming laggy at the same time. When the Bluetooth will not be activated, the paired devices are not displayed at the bottom of the menu. Hope that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Please don't be so dismissive! While you call it "Pure junk" you also say it's what you're looking for:confused: Please be more helpful, so we in turn, can help you.

My first question would be, have you performed a back to stock 2.2 and formatted? Rendering your phone to like new?
[Captivate Android Development] Stevenrogers_420:
I wasn't being dismissive. I'm just saying its not working correctly for me. Please understand that I will continue to try every iteration of this ROM that comes out, hoping that one will work for my phone. If it worked like advertised it would be perfect!

[Captivate Android Development] bimmernut318:
Have you done what tomween1 said? going back to stock? I had some problems with this rom and went back to stock KH3 then flashed this and all got 100% better, only problem was the market which got fixed with the alternate gallery fix. The phone was just fine with current samurai and corn kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] crandy2:
I think that is the point, it is working as advertised for a lot of us.

Did you restore your apps from Titanium backup with data? This is usually a source of problems.

Have you tried wiping cache and Dalvik to see if that helps?

Or maybe even a factory reset?
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Guys the question has already been asked, what did he do. He didn't offer, so don't beg him to share. If he needs help, he needs to tell us what he has done.
[Captivate Android Development] jgchaval:
Thanks for the info. Realized these are currently known issues til today when I read the first post on the forum lol.

Bluetooth is now working and Gallery is working great after applying the Alternate Fix.

I'm really loving this rom! I hope it gets better and better. :) Great work to all the people involved in the making of this rom!

their value plans seem great and they have a nice selection of phones, so i'm really torn.

so, mighty t-mobile subscribers, mind sharing your opinions? experiences?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] atoore:
I can't complain, I'm really happy with T-Mobile. Im with them for 4 years now, never had any type of problems. Won't be switching anytime soon.

Do the switch, you won't regret it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] lodes0:
I love T-mobile the speeds and coverage are great in Arizona. The only thing that is a drag is the data caps. But even when you reach the cap you can still use internet albeit at edge speeds. Other than that you won't regret it. The caps have different price ranges. 100mb, 2gb, 5 gb, and 10gb.

been on tmo for about 3 yrs and cant say i have much negativity to speak customer service is good, plan prices are great and probably has the best android phone selection out, I do see you're in fl like me so to be honest for coverage it depends on where you're at my worst reception has probably been in ocala would have 0 bars in some areas but would walk a few steps n have full bars but the great thing about tmo has been the wifi calling option which i so hope to god they hurry and update it to this phone fast, that's in case you don't have a strong signal but do have internet wifi where you are it'll switch and use the wifi signal instead of you're weak carrier signal

I switched to T-Mo from Sprint too & I don't regret it. I do sometimes miss being on my mom's family plan & only having a $45 phone bill every month, but my data speeds on T-Mo are at least 10 times faster and I get MUCH better signal almost everywhere I go so it's worth it. I also underestimated the convenience of switching phones with a mere sim swap, and I can't say a SINGLE bad thing about T-Mo's customer service either. Every time I call I get an english-speaker who is polite & helpful, and who doesn't feel the need to call me by my first name all the time or waste time thanking me profusely after every sentence. With Sprint, half of the reps were rude, and the other half were either completely clueless or else they had such unintelligible accents that I was better off going to a store if I had a problem. The only bad thing about T-Mo is the data caps, but I've heard you can get around those by using a different APN(which seems to be working so far, and I guess I'll find out for sure if I get throttled this month). Sprint does have unlimited data, but its SO s l o w...

But- it all depends which service is best in your area.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] vinterchaos:
I switched from T-Mobile (after like 7 or 8 years) being with them to goto Sprint to get the Evo 3D. Was the biggest mistake I ever made. T-Mobile was always willing to subsidize me a phone every year with customer loyalty. Sprint had 25kbish download in 90% of my area, they tore up me and my wife's contract after being with then for about 1 1/2 months. Came back to T-mobile, and couldn't be happier!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] heygrl:
Sprint's data network is garbage, and the company itself is far more evil than T-Mobile.. look at their past practices. Getting rid of the Premier program. Offering unlimited under their prepaid brands at really low prices only to cap it and raise the prices later. $10 bogus premium data fee. etc. SLOW 3G, lies about 4G WiMAX being their choice over LTE.. we all knew WiMAX was going the wayside and now it finally has.
