Unlike I normally do, I flashed straight from 4.2 to 5.0 then 5.1 to 5.2 to 5.3.

Since I only have class tomorrow and am off til next week, I'll restart it with my normal OCD process and see if anything changes.

[Captivate Android Development] shoman94:
yea I had figured that out right after posting. I'm moving around to different roms. I just haven't found what I"m looking for yet.
[Captivate Android Development] touchtweak:
Excellent, will do.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
please let me know how it turns out!

about the lockscreens issues (messaging app and haptic feedback), I´ve got this response from crt60:

at this present moment I don't have enough knowledge to mess around with his mod... so... for now... it will have to stay that way... sorry :(
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
No worries. Its a non issue really. I'm in class right now actually doing my backups and such for when I get home later.

RC5.4 is cooking!! :D

I'm doing a little theming for it... VERY VERY little... all in a stockish way...

what do you guys think of a black translucent notification bar? not too translucent...
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
RC5.4 is up! :D

Updated OP!!
[Captivate Android Development] GuitsBoy:
Thanks, checking it out now.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Not quite a fan of the gingerbread green that everyone seems to like so much. Will be sticking to 5.3 for now

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
the only theming I did was on the sinal/wifi bars, clock, bluetooth and airplane icons... I was having trouble on reading the sinal/wifi bars... it was all grey!!!

everything else is stock...
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
I understand that, but green in general is just an ugly color to me. Why Google chose green is beyond me.

Were there any framework changes other then for the theme? I'm wondering if I can just swap them in from 5.3 and update with a full wipe

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
there were no changes besides the theme... you can swap the files safely if you wish!

about the colors, I choose green because the stockish feel but I prefer blue and orange... I was thinking on making a tangerine theme for serenity but I suc* on theming...
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Theming is not easy by any standard. The guys who do it are really good and make it look easy.

Edit: Also meant to ask, do I need to use the systemui.apk from 5.3 along with the old unthemed frameworks?
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I only themed systemUI.apk, frameworks are untouched... ahhh I swap 3 extended power menu icons on framework-res.apk... I think that´s it!
[Captivate Android Development] sram21092:
i updated to RC5.4 and my wifi no longer works properly. It might connect but it gets stuck at "obtaining ip address". I also experiencing battery drain.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
You have to flash on a full battery and let your phone run down the first day. The first day after a flash is the worst on battery. Don't expect stellar results on day 1.

And about your wireless problem. You need to reflash. Did you do full wipe or no-wipe?
[Captivate Android Development] sram21092:
I updated from RC5.3 at 100%, so no wipe. Ill try reflashing the update though.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Quite liking the new thread title. Hopefully KK4 brings us a solution to this damn Gallery blackout bug!!
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I'm beginning to think it has something to do with the deodexing since I don't have the issue running odexed stock.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
If that's the case, ddoubt, maybe you should try releasing an odexed version first, or just a private test version so we can test Kyuta's hypothesis.

[Captivate Android Development] sansart:
To get the lockscreens on 5.3 I had to flash 5 -> 5.2 -> 5.3.

To get them on 5.4 can I flash straight to 5.4 or do I have to go through 5.2 again?
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
If you're already on 5.3 you can flash the no-wipe 5.4 and have the lockscreens.

Also, forget what I said in my above post ddoubt, I'll just flash KK4 stock and test it.

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] jonnhy1313:
I am having the same problem with wifi. Did the no-wipe update from 5.3 and reflashed a couple times
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
I had this problem a lot when I was on Froyo. The only solution that ever worked was reflashing completely.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Please let me know if it fixes the issue cause if thats the case I´ll include odexed gallery3D and mediaprovider on RC6...

-------------------------------------

is anyone else getting wifi issues on upgrading to RC5.4?

for those with problems, try:

- clear cache and dalvik-cache before flashing the non-wipe

- on wifi settings, clear data for that connection and retype the password

- if none of the above fix the problem, try the full wipe

- if none of the above fix the problem, please post to the thread!!!

I´m not experiencing this wifi problem here... and I did a full-wipe and non-wipe...
[Captivate Android Development] touchtweak:
I have simply updated each nonwipe as they have come along, and my wifi is fine. However; the data connection was hit and miss in general after the 5.4 update. I turned off 'Allow mock locations' in settings>applications>development and now all is good.

Doesn't make much sense does it? But, all data works great... wifi and 3g(hspa).
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Hmm... it really doesnt make sense... mock locations is a "true" - "false" edit on xml only... it DOESNT affect data at all...

anyway... I´m on KK4 now... it seems faster (samurai 1.4 rfs)... I havent had any issues on gallery3d and... wifi is fine, bt is fine, data is fine... no bugs so far... ahhh power control widget is fixed also! :D

I really think we´re very close to a final build from samsung...
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Are you on Stock KK4 or something of your own cooking? Did you deodex or leave it odexed?

Haven't had time to flash lately, been running around with a few of lifes wonderful little problems to deal with. We had a torrential downpour here the last two days, and my car has a water leak and I kinda have a small swimming pool in the back.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
yes yes... cars are sometimes a pain... I also have a water leak on mine... :eek: glad you remember me (or maybe not :) ) so I can have it fixed before I get a pool too...

anyway... I'm on Serenity KK4 RC6 (cooked and ready to serve!!!), deodexed, very fast and stable... better yet... I found no bugs so far! :D :D :D
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Really? No bugs? What did you do about the gallery and mediaprovider?

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I've been running kk4 since morning... didnt have the time to mess around with the rom yet but so far everything is shipshape!!! gallery3d and media provider are deodexed stock kk4...

I'll tell you more tomorrow when I release RC6! :D
[Captivate Android Development] ctechbob:
Sweet, I'll have to sneak off tomorrow and install it, hope my family doesn't catch me!!
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Serenity KK4 RC6 is up! :D

Updated OP!

I´m gonna make some battery mods and put them on 2nd post so... which ones do you want me to do?
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
hey miztaken1312, I got a working script for increasing cache size on RC6!! I just tested and it´s working! I´ll include on 2nd post!!

EDIT: CWM flashable is on 2nd post!
[Captivate Android Development] Jirv311:
Ctechbob attached a Gallery.apk in the MaxQ thread that works for the KK series and it fixed the gallery issues for us.
[Captivate Android Development] pcguy23:
thanks ddoubt,

appreciate your work

was running serenity kk2 as my daily driver until kk4 came out

great work

had 0 issues with kk2

downloading kk4 right now
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Serenity has stock kk4 galley3d & mediaprovider... its been 2 days since I´m on kk4 and the issue hasnt occurred yet...

kk4 have been ROCK solid since flash!
[Captivate Android Development] mykwalkr:
THANK YOU!

Happy Turkey Day! thank you for such a smooth ROM.....no problems whatsoever! I think I have finally talked the wife into letting me upgrade her stock AT&T bloated captivate!

SERENITY NOW!
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Could someone on RC6 check their /sdcard/Voodoo directory and list what files are there? Just trying to see if Serenity w/Samurai default suffers from the same issue as Illuminance w/Samurai default.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
disable-lagfix (file)

system-as-rfs (file)

logs (folder)

which issues is Illuminance suffering from?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I don't think you yourself will suffer from it but rather others that flash your ROM. The files to tell the kernel to zipalign aren't getting deleted which then causes issues in recovery for whatever reason. It's a simple fix (delete the files that should have been deleted on boot) I'm just trying to figure out why they're not getting deleted.
[Captivate Android Development] MidniteMarauder:
Finally got my ten posts down yay. Would like to see a digital battery mod. Running Legend 1.2 now and really like the readability of the digital mod. Downloading rc6 now so I have something to do later LOL.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I flashed serenity rc6 fullwipe just to be sure it was working properly, the "enable-zipalign" files were there and were deleted after first boot... maybe a random issue? well... please let me know if I´ll need to update the kernel (in case you release an update)

also, about the logs on sql_optimize, I´m still on samurai 1.4 and there are no entries regarding sqlite3 errors... does that mean that your script worked using my /system/xbin/sqlite3 binary?
[Captivate Android Development] MidniteMarauder:
So if I'm on rfs I can just delete the lagfix folder and its contents?
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I´ll post the battery mods tonight after I get home from college... I´ll include the digital battery mod ok! :)

no... leave the Voodoo folder as it is so the kernel don´t convert your filesystem to ext4!
[Captivate Android Development] MidniteMarauder:
Great, thanks for the quick reply.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
You make it sound like it was easy. But that's good news! I can't wait to flash RC6. I'm backing up really fast again and will flash in the next 5 minutes!

Let you know in 5 mins Kyuta.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
for me it was :rolleyes: I didnt really do anything... I got the script from iXNyNe on the i9000 thread :D :D :D :D :D
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Lol. Darn you. Maybe next time I just won't tweak anything :p
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
It should show in the /sdcard/Voodoo/logs/whatever_boot_you_did_it_on/init_log.txt for example /sdcard/Voodoo/logs/2011-11-24_16-30-04/init_log.txt It'll be easier to find if you just add the file then reboot as it'll be the very last folder.

Near the bottom of the log file you'll see where the script was run, the command that was run as well as its arguments and that's where the missing file error will show.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
EDIT: sorry... found it...

EDIT2: just installed Samurai 1.4.1, the sqlite error is still there, I think you missed the lib:

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Forgot to test it... adding in the lib now.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
My log came out similar but it was much longer due to all the "thumb.db" files Windows puts into my photo directories. However, I can report that the zip-align files were deleted on a full wipe coming stock from JF6 using Odin 1Click.

And ddoubt, any chance you could include an unthemed version? Like via CWM or something? I can't any replacement icon sets that I like in the UOT Kitchen.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
have you tested the increase cache script?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Strange I'm still getting the sqlite3 binary not found... *wonders if he even flashed the new 1.4.1 before uploading it...*

Well just repacked the kernel with the lib file and I'm about to test it to see if it works for me. Had to remove the low battery voodoo voice (honestly hope no one even thinks about trying to convert with a low battery) to get it to fit...
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
THAT'S WHAT I FORGOT TO DO. Thanks for the reminder! :p
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I´ll make a CWM file for you tonight when I get back from college ok?
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Awesome, thanks! And the cache script worked beautifully.
[Captivate Android Development] MidniteMarauder:
Loaded rc6 after I ate my Turkey dinner. Running nice and smooth so far. Thanks again for another great rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Ok update I can't seem to get the binary to recognize the library file no matter where I put it or what I try. So sqlite optimizing just won't work for now. If anyone has any suggestions on how to get it to work no matter how obvious you think it should be just shoot me a PM.
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
Wow, this latest RC6 ROM with the KK4 kernel is smooth. Just got done installing and restoring apps and now switching between screens and apps is really snappy. This is EFS?

Since Voodoo is now disabled, does this mean that my Voodoo enhancements for music are now gone?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Voodoo lagfix and Voodoo sound are totally separate. You can have one without the other
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
It must have been the tryptophan. I restored the normal Voodoo Control and not Voodoo Control Plus. Thanks for setting me straight. All good now.
[Captivate Android Development] mfdemicco:
Thunderbolt tweak (in regards to Kyuta's Sqlite optimization)?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
That's where I pulled it from but I was trying to add it to the inside of the kernel so people could run it like the zipalign script (by adding a file in the /sdcard/Voodoo folder) rather then having to use Script Manager and running it that way.
[Captivate Android Development] bornjamerican:
Is anyone else experiencing problems with the phone dialer's call log force closing all the time?
[Captivate Android Development] MidniteMarauder:
Have used the log a couple times now and haven't seen a force close yet.
[Captivate Android Development] ctechbob:
Same here, no FC on the log. I did reformat the SD, wipe the user data, and cleared all the cache before flashing though. Figured I'd start as fresh as possible.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Nope, no problem here either. I did the same thing ctechbob did. Except the reformat sd. I started from JF6 and went from there. Running great so far. I absolutely love it.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
hey guys! sorry for my absence! :)

I've been kinda busy at worked... some problems came up and I didnt have time to even check the xda!

I'm gonna do the battery mods and the stock theme tonight and I'll release tomorrow ok!

EDIT: so... how's serenity kk4? I have been experiencing some lag here after 02 days without reboot... I'm gonna test corn cause I think I was better with the systemcorp settings... I'll let you guys know!
[Captivate Android Development] shadvich:
KK4 is pretty good so far. Battery life is the best I've seen yet, no lag, which is surprising considering it's on RFS, and things are even speedier with thunderbolt and tegrak oc to 1.3ghz. About a day of uptime with deadline scheduler and things are solid. thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Life happens man, we all understand. And so far I'm loving it. 22hours and counting on the first charge. No lag yet and no gallery bugs!

[Captivate Android Development] greygoose425:
I've been on Serenity since RC5.1 and RC6 is by far the best release. No gallery or random FC issues. I have noticed something odd though. Sometimes when I enable wifi, the 3G icon will stay in the notification bar in addition to the Wifi icon. All the data seems to be going through the wifi connection tough, so not a big deal.

Thanks for making my phone awesome. Keep up the good work, it's much appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] pcguy23:
looking good here

Hows the GPS on this rom?
[Captivate Android Development] zeroonea:
Is this rom support connect to ah hoc wifi?
[Captivate Android Development] greygoose425:
The GPS is good (well, as good as it can get for the Captivate) when using the suggested settings in the 2nd post. I can get a standing still lock in about 7 seconds or less, a moving lock at highway speeds on the other hand.... EH, It's so-so at best.
[Captivate Android Development] axeman007:
Flashed yesterday. KK4 is a good build. Great battery life and awesome performance. Noticed a few glitches :-

(a) Not getting a GPS fix even after modifying angry gps settings.

(b) Data Network Mode active after switching on Wi-Fi.

(c) Notification volume goes down automatically.

Returning back to KK2 since GPS is a must have for me.

Great work. Looking forward to rectify these minor issues for an awesome ROM

---------- Post added at 01:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 PM ----------

use the Adhoc wpa_supplicant in place of default one and it works. I Tested ad-hoc mode and is OK in KK4
[Captivate Android Development] viny2cool:
I m amazed by the battery life. Its been 3 hrs since I removed my phone from charging and its still at 100.

Will test GPS today and give feedback.
[Captivate Android Development] WheresWaldo:
This is without a doubt a very smooth ROM. Thanks for all the effort and outstanding support of our community. I have this on two different Captivates and while everything runs fast They both randomly rebooted yesterday. Mine was in the camera app after taking a couple of pictures all of a sudden it rebooted. The other was just sitting on the table then it vibrated and the AT&T logo appeared.

I have not seen any other reports of random reboots in this or any of the other KK4 threads. Has anyone else had this happen to them? I will watch them over the next couple of days to see if it happens again.

WW

BTW, this is both on RC6 with absolutely different apps loaded, one is a refurb (I had a launch day phone that suffered from the power off issue), the other was a release from a year later.
[Captivate Android Development] ctechbob:
Just curious, did you flash the country GPS file or just change the settings? Mine seems to lock fine in the house, but I haven't gone for a drive with it yet. That's on the schedule today and I'll see if it locks and stays locked.
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Just wanted to give you a heads up that I've fixed the sqlite optimization script and it's up now.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Battery Mods and Stock Theme for Notifications Icons are UP!

2nd Post Updated! :D
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
that's very strange... which are the apps you have running in background? I've been running RC6 for 3 days now and had no issues at all...

please keep us informed if this issue happen again oK!
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
if gps turns out bad, I'll swap the files on next update with KH3 which was very good for many people!
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Could you attach you adhoc file so I can make a CWM file for people who want?

thanks! :D
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
I did the GPS fix steps in the second post and locking and tracking seem to work great. The only issue I've seen is that while I'm using Google Nav while driving and listening to music (w/ PowerAmp v2 [paid]) occasionally the whole phone will lockup and I have to do the Power/VolUp combo to reboot the phone. I don't think it is a factor of the GPS setting changes (including the USA config file) but rather I noticed it since PowerAmp v2 was released. My .02 cents.
[Captivate Android Development] csdibiase@gmail.com:
I've noticed that problem with roms since kh3, i thjnkthe problem is a system level memory leak exposed by a flaw in Google nav.
[Captivate Android Development] rjc127:
YMMV - But I have had good GPS tracking - using KK4 RC6 with the KK2 Modem and no GPS Fixes.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Love the ROM. Haven't had consistently good GPS since 4.1 or 4.2, I can't recall which. Have tried multiple modems on the KK# branches and have used both the "United States" and "North America" gps.conf files.

This is in the NY/CT area. Interestingly enough, GPS performance improves the deeper into CT I get. What makes it even more odd is that 90% is clear sky and horrible tracking; the most accurate tracking comes at the very end, along tight local roads with high tree cover. :confused:

Thanks for adding the un-themed theme!
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
If I wanted to "undo" the GPS fixes, I can reset the SUPL settings to the original settings, but how would I restore the conf file? The CWM .zip file?
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
I noticed that Maps doesn't show in my Market since it is automatically installed with the ROM. I uninstalled Maps and reinstalled it from three Market.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
hey guys, I just put a poll on the thread so I can know which GPS runs better for you and I´ll release it on RC6.1 ok! Please vote! :D

Are you using the Odin 1Click or Heimdall to flash back to JF6?

Sent from my Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Love how you posted this exact same post in at least one other ROM thread.

Download the KF1 ROM from this post

Extract the tar to get a folder with 3 .tar.md5 files, a .pit, and a .zip

Extract the tar.md5 files in the same directory in the following order overwriting files when asked

CODE_I897UCKF1_CL273832_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5

MODEM_I897UCKF1_CL1017518_REV02.tar.md5

SGH-I897-CSC-ATTKF1.tar.md5

Retar all the files you extracted into one tar.

Flash with Odin or Heimdall using the included .pit file with repartition checked

*edit* Sorry I'm used to flashing with Heimdall which doesn't require all the files to be tared. You'll have to tar all the files you extracted before you flash with Odin.
[Captivate Android Development] rjc127:
Flash the North America.zip and it should match what is in the ROM by default.
