Someone please help me I did everything right I did a wipe before I flashed and when I tried there was a boot loop. I can't get it into recovery or download mode. It just charges. I came for fasty III please help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
Did u disable the lagfix from Fasty III before flashing this Rom ??

What happens if u try to use the button combo to get into Recovery ?

How are u trying to get into download mode ?

If all else fails, do you have a Jig ?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jusrertiner:
No I didn't think I had to

And it just reboots normally

And I tried to do the 2 button combo where are hold down volume buttons and put in the USB

Edit after constally trying random things i pressed volumn down and power and it booted into download mode
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kafepuya:
if you have GB boot loaders, the correct method to go into download mode is:

1 insert USB cable

2 hold down Vol Down + power button

3 insert battery

KK2 Memory management

I've been following Illuminance for a while, but I'm hesitant to flash it. I've been running Pinnacle for a long time, and I love it. I've tried going to updated roms, but KJ roms have such high ram usage even after a fresh flash. KH3 uses around 170-185, but KJ3 uses around 240. I've read that kk2 is much better in terms of memory management, but I haven't seen any quantified answer. SO, about how much ram does kk2 use from a fresh install?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTBee:
I've been running Illum 2.0 now since it was dropped. My running ram on kk2 is 180. I never checked it before, but from what I understand IlluminatedOne says kk2 is much better than earlier builds. :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pmorales35:
Thanks for the quick response. Looks like I'm going to be running Illuminance if all goes well :)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTBee:
It's one of the best Roms I've run yet. Very stable, smooth and quick. And the DEV is great to work with too, very helpful. In fact there's lots of great support here, you won't be disappointed. ;)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EricRN:
First, much improved from 1.0, I was having similar problems to what Shoman posted about--very slow response from any button pushes, random freezes, etc. So far, none of that now. However (and I'm not necessarily blaming it on the ROM), my search button seems to be randomly pressing itself. I tried the updated firmware suggested for the random home button press while on 1.0 and thus far it dies not seem to be doing the trick.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trazer_se:
Hello first of all, I've been reading and flashing since the captivate was new but never made an account on here as I have been able to find the answers to all my questions on here before but finally need to actually ask a question.

I'm running Cog 5 currently on several of my many captivates and it is working fine really. I like Illuminance a lot, I'd love to run this on all my phones but I have a problem with email. Most email I get fine, but some email I get formatted differently and it shows up with a page or two of code at the top and I cannot see the email until I hit "load more details" then it loads the email that I'm used to seeing. It does not do this on Cog 5, or a default clean load of 2.3.5 either. I'm set to get emails of any size, tried everything I can think of to no avail.

What is different in Ill around email from stock? Whatever it is I apparently need to undo it and I'm not sure how offhand. Thanks all, appreciate the help!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
Simplest solution is fetch Email.apk from Cog 5 from /system/app folder and put it in Illuminance. You might need to delete EmailWidget.apk in Illuminace.

Both Email and EmailWidget in Illuminance are from SGS 2.

Bluetooth Not Working

After installing Illuminance 2.1 my Bluetooth no longer works. The Bluetooth serttings seem to be grayed out. When you press the turn on "button" it says "turning on" but nothing hasppens. There is no device name showing up either. I have reinstalled 2.1 more than once and Bluetooth had worked before.

Any ideas? Thank you.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
Working fine here. Just paired with my Laptop and Motorola S305 headsets, played music, transferred file. Everything seems OK.

Can you try connecting to other devices than the one you are currently trying.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trazer_se:
Ok, I have got the email.apk I need and put on the phone that is running Ill but I cannot get it to copy as the folder /system/app is read only. I tried a few things in terminal but for whatever reason failed to get it to go to read and write. Still looking, and thanks for the reply!

I'll have to make this way easier if it works before I do this on 70 of these..... lol.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
When you go to /system/app folder using Root Explorer, you will see small R/W button on top, press it. It will give you access as read/write.

Also make sure to clear data for Email app from Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All Apps.

Then replace app and reboot.

If this email works for you, then, open up Illuminance zip package you downloaded, (do not extract it) using WinZip/WinRar/IZarc go to /system/app folder delete Email and Email widget app from there and drag Email app from Cog here.

Now when you flash, you will get standard email app instead of SGS 2 Email app.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trazer_se:
I just went ahead and edited the .zip and then reflashed the entire phone. Email works correctly now when it works, I'm getting force closes all the time now though. I was so excited to see it working too!

I took out the email widget and email apks and added the default email app in. That's all, but it apparently is unhappy about something. Thanks again for all the help.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stingers29:
It is the Bluetooth on the Captivate that will not turn on. I cannot get to the point of attempting to pair to a device. It just says Turning on, but it never does.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stingers29:
Yes. On the Bluetooth settings screen other than the turn on bluetooth line everything is grayed out. Under device name it says" no name set,using account name".
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trazer_se:
Sorry, had a meeting for a while.

Updated with that email.apk and it seems to be working great now. I've only tested for about 30 minutes but so far so good. The other one I was using crashed at least every minute so I'm pretty hopeful that was the ticket! Thanks so much for helping me out as getting the number of phones I'm dealing with up to speed is interesting to say the least.

So far it's looking like your rom is just what I was looking for.

Also, just as a note Bluetooth is working fine here too, tested with a few handheld barcode scanners and it worked perfectly on all three devices that I'm testing on.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
Glad to know. The email apk I gave you was KK2 stock email app.

BTW, out of curiosity, how many phones you're going to flash?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trazer_se:
Well, once all the testing is done it will be around 40ish. If they have to be stock then so be it, but I would prefer to run a custom ROM like yours. If nothing else I'm a good test bed right lol?

Is anyone else having a problem receiving multimedia messages on 2.1? When I receive one the text just sits at "downloading". Also has anyone had the problem of the dialer or messaging app closing after you open them? Not force closing, but just returning to homescreen like two seconds after you open them? I couldn't dial a phone number today because it kept returning to the home screen.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] astroZ0MB1E:
I have had the dialer and messaging app do this across a couple of ROMs. I think it is connected to the available amount of memory. I have found that on this particular ROM and my phone, flashing the Corn Kernel leaves a little more RAM free and I don't get this problem nearly as often; however, YMMV.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] penpencalf:
Just flashed Illuminance 2.1.1. Very smooth and GPS works right out of box, no need for further tweaking.

However, the gallery app crashes a lot. Well strictly speaking it does not crash, just black screen, back button does not work , have to use home button to exit. Any idea? Thanks

I did a clean flash, from 2.1 stock to 2.3 stock to this rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
^ Gallery problem is a known issue. U can clear data for it under Settings/ Applications/ Manage applications/ All/ Gallery/ "Clear data". If that doesn't work then use the QuickPic app.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyStark R.I.P.:
It turns out that once QP has been used once or twice and then rebooted Gallery will then work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTBee:
When I first flashed Illume gallery, it worked fine for me with just a slight stuttering, quickpic worked great. But like you said, after a few back and forths it seemed to smooth out. I'm now trying I out corn kernel and it is smooth a well.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Been using that since install of 2.1.1. Russ have you tried Talon? Not even sure it would work.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTBee:
Talon wouldn't work for pinnacle so I assumed it would work for illuminate either. 9000vs897 thing. But, no I haven't tried it. I'm liking this corn kernel tho. Cool can't too.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
Talon won't work since it is based on I9000. It will give you random reboot at least.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTBee:
Sorry, using my phone with silly auto-correct. What I meant was, I assumed it wouldn't work since it's 9000 based. And I like the cwm 5 that comes with corn.

RTBee,

Your signature says you are on Illuminance 2.0. Did you try 2.1.1 too?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hadrien9:
First off. Thank you again for Illuminance II. It is just as smooth as 1.1.0 with even better battery life for me.

I have an odd question though. While I loved the SGS II Email app from Ill 1.1.0 when I was on KJ3, I found that the email app in stock KK2 was very very smooth and a bit faster than the SGS II Email app in Illuminance 1 and II.

How would a noob like me go about putting the stock email app from KK2 into Illuminance II? I have done some reading and saw a few ways people were extracting the apk from the stock roms but honestly have no idea on how to do this.

If there is a post that I missed that shows how to do this I apologize in advance. Any and all help would be most appreciated.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTBee:
No I didn't. You mentioned the biggest change was lockscreens, and I like the one that came with 2.0. It's been running great so I just haven't moved up. Any quirks with multiple lockscreens?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
Yes only change was lockscreen and 2.1.1 has a fix for lockscreens only. So far I didn't find any bug which I can related to lockscreens.

I have another bluetooth issue. Bluetooth activates just fine on my phone, and I can pair it with my G35. However, the next time I start my car, I have to pair them from scratch. My Captivate is 1007.

If Nandroid is supported, I suppose I could try the stock UCKK2 and see if it is the same. Or try the Corn kernel. Suggestions?

Hi there, thanks for all your amazing work! I had a question that I posted on the development thread, didn't know there was a QA thread:

after flashing the ROM and restoring Tibu missing apps, i charged the phone to full overnight. Once I unplugged it it rebooted about nine times... It's fine now but I wanted to seeing anyone knows why it happened.

Came from old froyo ROM, odined gb bootloader and new cwm with samurai kernel from the guide in qa, then disabled lagfix in cwm and flashed.

Everything is great now, though. Thanks for making this ROM. Love it! would just like to avoid that problem in the future. were the bootloaders from the guide (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1350266) not the right ones?

i was running cm7 wanting to try out this rom,so i flashed to stock then to uckh3. does it matter if i flash 2.0-or2.1 first or 1.0 also i can't dl anything from links right now (at work) just wanted to know if i should go in order or what?

Also after i flashed and got 2.3.4 i lost su,still have option for non m.a. so after i flash rom could someone tell me how to su back tried to find link but no luck..

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IlluminatedOne:
- Perform factory reset.

- Flash to stock leak UCKJ3 or any other 2.3.5 leak.

- Flash boog's KJ3 kernel using odin.

- Flash Illuminance 2.1 using cwm, Reboot.

- Flash Illuminance 2.1.1 (update, non-wipe) using CWM, reboot.

If you loose root, open Superuser app from app drawer, hit menu > preferences and update su binaries. (update anyway), reboot.

Optional, flash latest Samurai or Corn Kernel to get even better results.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEW-SCGS:
got it thanks alot for fast response...if its not in the app drawer do i need to got back to stock first to root it then to uckj3

is anyone else having "sleep of death" issues with this ROM???

i am also having other "minor" issues, messaging app randomly closing while i was typing (happens regularly) and seems to be laggy. but that might just be my phone.

also which launcher (of the three that come with it) is everyone using with this ROM? I was using the Sony Ericson one but witched to TW4 to see if that fixes any of my other issues.

edit: sorry not TW4, but TWLauncher
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RTBee:
I was running Illuminance 2.0 with lagfix disabled (rfs) and never had a problem with 'sleep of death' thing. Also my phone build is 1007, if that helps. I only noticed a bit of lag, not much, after about 4 days of use (no reboots or power downs). I switched to Corn kernel and lag, even on rfs, was nonexistant.

As for launcher, I think TW3 is the one that comes with the ROM, not TW4 which has been know to be buggy with GB. I tried TW3 for a couple of days with no problems, then switched to my launcher of choice right now, GoLauncher Ex. So, I don't know if this helps or not but it is what it is. :D

How to clear default launcher

Hi,

I just installed Illuminance last night and pretty happy with that. One little thing bothers me is that I chose a home launcher but forgot to way to clear the choice. I remember there was a guide how to clear it, but I quickly dismiss it. Can you point me where I can clear the default home launcher? I installed version 3. I appreciate your help. And Thanks for this good rom.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Well what exactly do you want to do? If it's simply changing the launcher, download a free app called Home Switcher (be sure to download the Fruyo or later version). Then you will be able to change your launcher simply using an app

Thanks for the quick reply. I thought there is a quick way to clear the choice, somewhere in the setting. Because before I set android home as default, there were three options, Android home, Sony Erricsson home, Tw launcher. I'll try downloading home switcher. Thanks.

I found the solution which I wanted from installing default-app-manager.

For the people like me who didn't read carefully when choosing default home launcher, this is quick way to reset it.
