[Captivate Android Development] takeoutttt:
just pressed the thanks button :D

one more thing, the corn kernel included in the rom is 7.03 where there is no smartassv3 in the governors.

can i change it with 7.0a or 7.06? Plus i want to use the voodoo lagfix :)
[Captivate Android Development] KMan94:
Go right ahead
[Captivate Android Development] kevalin:
Hey, Folks.

I'd really like to give Serenity a try, but my darling Cappy is flatly refusing to download a CWM kernel (getting the 3e permissions issue, and everything I've tried has failed) and Odin 1-click stock KK1 without bootloaders is no longer available for installing the "safe" version of the rom.

Can I do the surefire install starting from Odin 1-click KK4?

EDIT: Never mind. Turns out the answer is, "Why, yes. Yes you can..."
[Captivate Android Development] SlimJ87D:
My GF and I used this rom for months. It always starts off well but after a month of use or so it will slow down, lock up and have a lot of different kinds of problems.

If you plan on sticking with a ROM for awhile, this one isn't for you. But if you plan on flashing every so often this ROM will be great for the first few weeks or a few months.
[Captivate Android Development] anishz:
Any suggestions for long term rom.
[Captivate Android Development] KMan94:
Legend 4. So far for me not a single problem. Using "stock" corn 7.06
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
+ 1 I concur :-)
[Captivate Android Development] SlimJ87D:
Everyone says you absolutely can't go wrong with this one:

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/forum-278/announcement-23-cyanogenmod-72-rc3-released-2012-may-26/

I'm putting it on my GF's phone tonight. She can't stand Serenity anymore, and I feel my stomach turn when she yells at her phone because I know it's my fault for putting Serenity on there and keeping her on it for so long...

I've moved onto a i9300.
[Captivate Android Development] swayjd:
Actually you can. It is unusable for me, I was fine with the RC2, on the RC3 people call me and 5 times out of 10 I can't hear them. Need to end the call and call again.
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
Try this:

http://get.cm/get/jenkins/2548/cm-7-20120610-NIGHTLY-captivatemtd.zip

works fine
[Captivate Android Development] swayjd:
tried that aswell. I'm up to date on releases. Had to fall back to RC2, had the same issue.

Meanwhile, did you manage to format the sdcard on windows with sucess? I'll give it a whirl right now on some .exes Im about to google
[Captivate Android Development] azunino:
not yet. @ work
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
I've actually been meaning to ask why he removed bash. Thinking of putting together my own ROM that'll be odexed rather then deodexed for the sheer challenge. Most devs use deodexed ROMs because it makes it easier to edit the system files (framework.apk, services.jar, etc.) and thus easier to theme. So I'm looking for things to add to (or in this case remove from) it.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
please, post the link to the script so I can include it in the OP!

and yes, you can remove bash safely, but you'll still have the BT issue without the wipe of RC4...
[Captivate Android Development] jazenf:
Hi, how can I flash this update with out deleting my apps ?
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I removed bash because it was not being used by any scripts & apps, I don't even know why I included it on RC3 in the first place... sh works just fine...
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
You can't, sorry but to get rid of the BT issue I had to rebuild the entire ROM. You could use Titanium Backup (included in Recommended-Apps folder) and make a backup of your apps and then restore after flash.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
WOW... this is the first time I use Tegrak Overclock and I'm really impressed... my cappy has just turned into the Road Runner himself... damn this phone is running fast!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

it will go in "Recommended-Apps" for sure!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
I'll post it up when I get home. Im out at Buffalo Wild Wings with my friends. Also the BT issue isn't a problem for me. Its probably the least used feature of my phone. Prefer a wired headset personally.

[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
So it's something you had added in?
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
I just flashed to test it and the time stamps are 4 hours behind for me. I can drop an mms.apk in the system app folder that doesn't have this issue, but then I lose the shortcut at the bottom of the screen. Is there a way of replacing it with this launcher?
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
yes, it was...

kj3 stock comes with sh only...
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
yes, there is... drop the apk in the system/app then go to the launcher, open the app drawer, then View Type, Customizable Grid, after that you should see the edit option then its just a matter of dragging the mms shortcut to where you wanted...
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
I tried doing that, but it would only allow me to place the shortcut on one of the home screens or the trash, not the bottom bar where the phone, contacts, messaging (which disappears when you replace the mms.apk via paste method), and applications shortcuts are.

I also wanted to replace the battery icon to the Gingerbread battery with percentage; however, UOT Kitchen isn't working for me.
[Captivate Android Development] jazenf:
Hi, great rom first off.. is there any way to add more choices when it comes to the lock screen, or a way that I could do it myself ?
[Captivate Android Development] SmurferSurfer22:
I was wondering about the aosp lock screen. It hasn't seem to pop up and that is one of my favorite things about this phone. I'm not sure why or if there is anything i'm doing wrong, but no puzzle piece unlock after getting a text. If anyone could help, I would be grateful. thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
You have rebooted since copying and pasting the other mms.apk correct? If its still not showing up you may need to wipe data from TouchWiz and reboot.

Also, I took the liberty of going to the UOT Kitchen for you. I'm attaching a CWM zip with the gingerbread battery for you to flash.

@ddoubt, I'm also uploading my cache script in a CWM file as well.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
You won't see the puzzle piece unlock screen on this rom. He replaced it with the one you see now. Unless someone makes an androidpolicy.jar (or whatever the file is that contains the lockscreen) with multiple lockscreens for KJ3, you'll only see the AOSP lockscreen. Now I'm not sure which lockscreen came default on this KJ3 leak, but if it was the puzzle piece unlock, I can help you get that back.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
are you on RC4? I just tested, it worked fine here. You must be on the app drawer, then select EDIT, then drag then icon to the bottom bar...

also, you may need to clear data as mentioned by miztaken1312...
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
thanks for both UOT and the Cache Script! I'll link this post to OP now!
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Not without coding into the ROM, every i897 GB 2.3.X has only glass, puzzle OR AOSP lockscreen for now...

The stock came with glass and puzzle, I used crt60's mod to get the AOSP.

If you want the stock lockscreens, please use the Add-on on 2nd post (HERE), it's CMW flashable...

Showing no respect to the devs is really annoying

BTW,I like your wallpaper in the first screenshot
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I didn't get what you meant... :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] nzahorchak:
I tried rebooting after replacing the mms.apk in the system/apps folder to see if that would bring the shortcut back, but no luck. I'm back on ApeX 9.3 for now, but will try wiping the TouchWiz data when I have time to fiddle with it next. Thank you.

I tried it with RC3 and RC4. I'll try again when I have time to flash to Serenity again. Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] SmurferSurfer22:
I feel really bad. I totally missed the second post.... apologies for my hasty reading and post of such nature. I'm going to reflash the rom and install the battery and lock screen mods. Will give stars after i find out what happens.

again sorry.

*EDIT*

After everything got installed, is amazing. This is exactly what I was looking for. I like the stock feel and the tweaks you put into this. 5stars and all that goodness. Really great ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I'll put in a fixed MMS on my next release ok! I really didn't know it wasn't fixed...
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
Hey brotha great job;) keep on keepin on.

Really nice and clean seems there's no lag. I've attached TW4. I cleaned it up for KJ3. Ignore the Illuminance_UCKJ3 it will work w/ any KJ3 ROM It can be flashed straight through CWM. PLEASE IN ANY CASE, back up prior to falsh.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I'll make a link to your modded TW4 on the 2nd post (Add-ons) ok! Thanks for the launcher tomween1!
[Captivate Android Development] elus:
Hi, can this rom work on a i9000 gingerbread bootloader? I'm coming from apex. Ty
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
For some people, i897 GB ROMS work fine on i9000 GB Bootloader, but for some people it cause bootloops... anyway, the recommended is i897 GB Bootloader but I don't see why it wouldn't work on the i9000's...

has anyone ever tried Serenity on i9000's GB Bootloaders?

Digital Battery Mod

Digital battery mot for RC4.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Thanks for the mod! I'll post a link in 2nd post! :D
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
So ddoubt, for your first ROM, this is amazing. Yesterday was my first full day of using the rom and it exceeded my expectations. Unplugged it at around 8 in the morning and it lasted me until 3am. (Late Friday night, lol) Excellent battery life, very quick and responsive, great cell signal and data speeds. I'm looking forward to future releases from you.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Reproducible crash

Just downloaded RC4 and installed it over Illuminance 1.1. No apps installed yet, just went through the "setup" steps on first boot.

ROM crashes and reboots every time I follow these steps (haven't had this happen on other ROMs, no clue if it's the kernal or Superuser or the ROM or something else):

1. Open "Superuser" from the app drawer.

2. Select "Menu | Preferences".

3. Scroll to the bottom, select "Su binary v3.0.3, Tap to check for Updates".

4. Even if you're up-to-date, click "Update anyway".

5. Click "That was cool, do it again."

6. When it tries to mount /system r/w that second time, it reboots on me every time.

I know this didn't happen for me in other ROMs b/c I regularly click "That was cool, do it again." multiple times. =)

Not a deal-breaker for me, still going to try the ROM for awhile. Thanks for putting in the work!
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
did you clear Delivc and Cache prior to flashing rom?
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Shouldn't have anything to do with those two things as they are wiped anyway when installing the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
I do it out of habit, yes, although I am fairly certain Serenity's update script handles it, too.

I edited my post to clarify that I can only reproduce the reboot when I follow the steps outlined vis-a-vis Superuser; otherwise, the ROM is working beautifully. When Superuser tries to mount /system as r/w that second time, though ... reboot! =)

I take it that you cannot duplicate the behavior on your setup by following those steps, tomween1? One thing: although I usually do between ROMs, I did not do a factory reset this time prior to putting Serenity RC4 over Illuminance 1.1. If I start seeing other problems I'll do a clean install.

battery icon

i'm running illuminance 1.1 now but i'm interested to have the battery icon on this rom. can someone make a cwm file for the battery icon? that would be very helpful. thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
If you can provide me of a screenshot of what battery indicator is used on Illuminance, I can try to help you out.
[Captivate Android Development] hakim7489:
battery icon on illuminance 1.1 is similar to the gingerbread battery (green vertical with number) cwm file on the 2nd post.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
so, I just tried your scenario 10x, "that was cool do it again" about 5x and "update anyway" 5x... maybe you had a bad flash... here everything is ship-shape... try doing a factory reset like you said...
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
glad you're enjoying the ROM! I'm also getting very good battery life here... did you installed RC3 before? I mean, this modem UCKE3 I put on RC4 is very good but I still think the UCKH3 was a little better... for me anyway...

anyway, thanks for all the support on Serenity!

edit: I just saw your signature, you're on RC3, right?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Double check to make sure you don't have more then one instance of the su binary and busybox. Some kernels will install busybox into one location and then some ROMs (or a new kernel) will install it into another and that can cause issues.
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
That's correct, I am still on RC3. This modem is excellent. Much better then KB1

TW4 Removal

I'm not 100% sure if this belongs here but since it's part of the thread already... How would I go about taking the TW4 launcher off? Only reason is since I installed it I have been getting TW4 FC when I am doing a lot with it at a rapid pace(open preferences, change a few settings, save and apply, edit screen apps, edit drawer in about 20 seconds total). Also, I had some random reboots after TW resets twice in a row. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Last post here on this issue, but I think it's interesting enough to share. Started from scratch and I can still force the reboot with those steps, but only on Serenity, even with different kernals.

1. One-clicked back to stock JF6.

2. Booted phone did a "Master Clear" with Odin.

3. One-clicked UCKJ3 stock with GB bootloaders.

4. Flashed Boog's KJ3 kernal with CWM.

5. Flashed Serenity RC4 via CWM.

6. Still experienced reboot using Superuser steps listed in my prior post.

7. Flashed Boog's KJ3 kernal to see if it was a kernal issue.

8. Still experienced reboot using Superuser steps listed in my prior post.

9. Flashed Illuminance 1.1 via CWM (no master clear or anything this time).

10. Booted phone, could not force reboot using Superuser steps, could click "That was cool, do it again" successfully (I stopped counting after 10x).

11. Flashed Serenity RC4 via CWM (no master clear or anything this time).

12. Again, experienced reboot using Superuser steps listed in my prior post.

Also tried several non-KJ3 ROMs and was unable to duplicate the crash behavior. It seems to be specific to Serenity RC4 and, I guess, to my particular phone if no one else can duplicate the behavior. I look forward to RC5 or a release version to see if it's magically cleared up!

Cheers for the work you're putting in to keep development moving on the Captivate!
[Captivate Android Development] TonyStark R.I.P.:
It may be as easy as changing the kernel. Which one are you using? I am on Samurai, I have also used Boog both with no issue. I would think ddoubt has a revert to TW3.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I just post a revert for you on 2nd post ok! It will remove TW4 and reinstall TW3 (TW3 should be still there, but I'd reinstall just in case :) )
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Could you do a little test for me? Delete superuser.apk from your /system/app folder and download it again from market, see if it fix the issue!

I tried very hard to reproduce your issue here but couldn't...
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
Tried to reproduce this on RC3 with no luck. Seems to indeed only be RC4
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Yep, that seems to have resolved it!

First I reinstalled RC4 clean (back to JF6, etc.) and confirmed the issue was still there. Then I used "Super Manager" to delete "Superuser.apk" from /system/app, per your instructions. Then I downloaded "Superuser" from the Market, tested it out and clicked "That was cool, do it again!" a few dozen times successfully, no reboots.
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
Glad it's been fixed.

have anyone else experienced this issue on RC4 also?
[Captivate Android Development] jordanpatrick:
I am on RC4 and attempted to replicate the error, but could not. I can hit 'That was cool, do it again' as many times as I want.
[Captivate Android Development] FlKTION:
ddoubt, thank you for this ROM man, since FireFly I have had many issues moving to GB. I love this rom and it makes using my phone a pleasure again, a very speedy reliable pleasure :D

[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
are you on RC3 or RC4?
[Captivate Android Development] ctechbob:
I submitted this to ddoubt earlier today and now that I can post in the dev forum I thought I'd share it with everyone else.

Back before I flashed this rom the regular leaked KJ3 seemed to have the exact same gallery problem. I did some searching and it was suggested to replace the Gallery3D.apk with a different one. I downloaded and copied it over the one in the apps directory, rebooted and gave it a whirl. Haven't had a single gallery issue since.

I don't know what version of the Gallery this is and I can't find the thread on XDA I got it from, but works for me.....here it is.. it is smaller than the one in the KJ3 release, so something is different, I'm just not intelligent enough to figure out what.

Edit: All I did was copy this over the one in system/app Reboot the phone after.

Edit Edit: This worked for the leaked KJ3, RC3, and now RC4.
[Captivate Android Development] cyberbandit1998:
Thank you
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
I'm finishing the tests on RC4.1, I'll upload the files tomorrow. Wipe & Non-Wipe versions! :D
[Captivate Android Development] Dave the Knave:
ddoubt, I'd like to bring something to your attention...

I was over at Jirv311's thread with his new rom that you encouraged him to continue working on, even though you both had similar roms, and bryman27 mentioned that in his build prop, he had two conflicting statements. (It's all here starting on the second post of this page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=19154671#post19154671)

Your build.prop has the exact same conflict. I'm not sure what edits you made or didn't make to the build.prop, but is this the way it's supposed to be? I'm gonna look around at the other 2.3 leaks that we have to see if they're like that too (only the stock ones though)
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
so... thanks for the heads up! it was my mistake, the vm heap size is the dynamic memory allocated by programs and must be set only once... 48 is better according some poking around I did here on xda, if you set it to high you can run out of free memory and this will trigger swapping which will degrade performance, draining more battery life also...

Hi ddout, I'm currently on the original KJ3 ROM and having problem with SMS timestamp.

Could you please show me how to fix it? Can I just push the Mms.apk in your ROM into my system\app?

I've just finished downloading the RC4.1, but don't have time to flash until weekend when I have free time... Too much stuff to back-up before flashing a new ROM :( So I managed to ask how to fix SMS timestamp problem, before flashing the entire ROM this weekend :)

Thank you in advance!

(Still on RC3) Is there any way to get the picture messages to come in as pictures and not as a slide show...without downloading a third party messaging app?
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
yes, just replace your mms.apk with the one on Serenity...

I don´t really use picture messages so... actually... I don´t know :confused:

can anyone answer that?

UPDATE w/ pictures

Looks like this when it comes in:

Then it looks like this when you click on it:

gives me 10 secs to look at it and in that 10 secs about 5-7 secs it just black screen. Ive noticed this on other ROMs. By no means am I complaining about Serenity because I love this ROM. Just trying to see if anyone might have a fix or suggestion. Again I really don't want to use a 3rd party app like Go SMS.

Is there anyway that when its clicked on it can be looked at like in the gallery?
[Captivate Android Development] ddoubt:
