Just flashed the Legend 5 and it was sleeker, snappier and more free ram. Been waiting for this update, already edited my signature and its links. A must have for KK4 users. Cheers! :good:
[Captivate Android Development] myshinynewtouch:
Folks, what would anyone suggest, flash the complete rom or just the update. Just learned to Flash Roms and not sure which is a better option
[Captivate Android Development] takeoutttt:
I used the Full wipe ROM. Just flash it and it will do everything for you, all you need to do is wait. No need to wipe data and all. But the choice is yours I just dont want to have troubles so I prefer a full clean wipe instead of just updating.

[Captivate Android Development] Q Rock:
Complete NOOB on Captivate

I'm currently using legend 4 and I want to move on to Legend 5. Do i just flash Legend 4 to Legend 5 Update without wiping anything? L4 is the only rom I've ever used so please help.
[Captivate Android Development] IDoMy0wnRacing:
If L4 is working well for you than just flash the L5 update.

If you have a few bugs with L4... Perhaps from installing apps and then removing them again, or just from general play. Then a fresh flash would be more beneficial.

Remember, if you are going to use the wipe version, back up your apps & data first...
[Captivate Android Development] Q Rock:
Thanks alot man!:good:
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
L5 + Corn 7.0a seem to be working fine. Only issue so far is wallpapers not applying to just one screen whether or not I have disabled all other screens/workspaces in holo launcher. When applied it apparently zooms in on the wallpaper and it looks like crap.
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
I'm a launcher pro user myself and it does the same thing, one thing I just tried (you will need quick pic from the market as well) was using the tw3 launcher press the menu sofkey click wallpaper/quick pic then it will bring up a box that says 1 or 2 screens click 1 then choose the wall you want, size it the way you want, click save and done. It shouldn't resize the original image but just in case and as a rule of thumb have your stuff backed up somewhere other than the phone. Or you can do it manually and either crop or resize the image and transfer it to your phone.
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Would you happen to know what size the picture has to be for a single screen? I don't mind having to crop/resize my wallpapers.
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
I knew I forgot something 480x800
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
I had some leftover wallpapers that I made for my old LG Dare that are 240x400 so I threw them on the externalSD to try 'em. I go to Menu key > Wallpaper > Gallery > Wallpapers(folder on externalSD) > choose one of those pics > choose rectangle > resize rectangle border to highlight entire pic > set. Still looks zoomed in.

This is driving me insane. :(

ETA: After some google searching, by default you should be able to disable wallpaper scrolling and that allows you to set a wallpaper which sets itself to the resolution of just the one screen. Unfortunately, this doesn't work for me and this option was disabled right after I reinstalled L5. I'm assuming it's a holo launcher issue but I'm not exactly sure which launcher will fix the problem, nor how to switch to a new launcher.

ETA2: Multipicture Live Wallpaper, free app from the market, did the trick. All I had to do was set up Screen 1 settings making sure that within those Screen 1 sub-settings to choose the wallpaper I wanted and that it was set to fit-to-screen. It's actually labeled Screen 2 in MPL because that app considers the far-left screen to be Screen 1 but my homescreen was actually one over to the right, guess I did this accidentally when I removed all the other screens in hololauncher.

This app does a lot more and you can set up like 7 screens total which is neat. To run the app you need to go to Wallpapers > Live Wallpapers > Multipicture Live Wallpaper since it installs no shortcuts in your apps area.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
Touchwizlauncher should solve it. It is available in the mods section in 2nd post.
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Edited my last post to add this...

"Multipicture Live Wallpaper, free app from the market, did the trick.

So the problem is fixed, or bypassed I should say.

Just out of curiosity, how do I install those other launchers that are in the first post, and is it easy to go back and forth between launchers if I don't end up liking one?

Also wanting to install your stainless theme since it looks awesome and is apparently L5 compatible. I'll check the theme section to see if there's any guides to do this in there.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
You can go back and forth between the tw3 and tw4 launchers, I don't have a remover for the gingerbread launcher, you can set one as the default and ignore the other launchers.
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
You can use home switcher from the market to switch launchers easily. Its labeled for froyo but works on GB. The launchers and themes are flashed through recovery just like the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Thanks a lot for the help guys, it's much appreciated!

Is it easy to revert back to the original theme? I read that some people who installed themes had the option of a "revert.zip" in recovery mode but I don't know if I'll get that option. Would be a good thing to know just in case I have issues with the theme or don't end up wanting to keep it.

Anyway, after using this phone for a while after the fresh install of Corn 7.0a and L5 FW here are some things I've noticed so far...

-Standby battery time looks to be roughly the same as it was on stock GB KK4.

-In use battery time(playing games, browsing market, etc) looks like it might burn through the battery a hair faster than stock GB KK4 but I wouldn't consider it a problem at this point.

-Some actions in various apps take a few extra seconds to complete, during which time the screen goes black. I don't recall this happening on stock GB KK4.

-Apparently Hololauncher 1.06 won't apply single screen resolution to a photo regardless of there being multiple screens or not. For whatever reason it will apply zoom to the photo no matter what resolution you crop/resize it to. Must use different launcher or an app like Multipicture Live Wallpaper from the market to bypass this problem.

-Sometimes it seems like GrooveIP will randomly open and I'm pretty sure I didn't accidentally touch that part of the screen. Will try to pay closer attention to find out if it's an actual bug or user error.

-After bootup the phone acts a bit sluggish for a bit but that clears up quickly and the problem doesn't reoccur until after reboot again.

-My WiFi doesn't reconnect automatically while at home, I have to go to Settings > WiFi settings and that apparently triggers the reconnection process. I'm about 99.9% sure it reconnected automatically on stock GB KK4.

ETA: Would it be possible to have a sample/.gif of the bootup downloads on the first page so we could see them before downloading/installing? I'm digging the blue android guy but would like to see the others.
[Captivate Android Development] cbalt:
It must just be me, but I flashed both this and mpd. Both after Flashing back to stock I897UCKK4 Gingerbread Firmware from http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3 with bootloaders since the phone was on ICS. I have had nothing, but random reboots and lockups on both some at the boot screen others while trying to use the stock browser. So I guess I am going back to ICS, thanks anyways Legend 4 worked perfectly and you both are amazing devs.
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Which Kernel did you use? Due to people having issues with Corn Kernel 7.06 they have 7.0a which is a "compatibility version" that seems to work fine. I had some minor issues and 7.0a fixed it for me.

Also, when I used that method you linked to go back to GB KK4 from L5 + 7.06 so I could reinstall L5 + 7.0a, I didn't use the "with bootloader" version because it is my understanding that if you have or ever had GB you already have the bootloader and don't need to install it again. Maybe that was your problem?
[Captivate Android Development] cbalt:
It shouldn't be a problem when you flash with the bootloaders, even if you already have them, people just recommend not to because there is a better chance of bricking your device using them. I was using the 7.06, and I had never had a problem with it before, thanks for the help though I think I am just going to go back to SlimICS since this is my spare cappy and I am going to give it to my mom.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
I've got a feeling that ICS has done something to your partitions, this is the first I've heard of this. Legend 5 isn't that much different than Legend 4 to where it would cause bootloops and reboots, unclear what could cause it. Especially after flashing to stock kk4 with repartitioning.

I assume most people aren't having problems.

Here is an cwm flashable stock build prop, apns-conf.xml, and hosts file, it may help solve various issues with certain phone builds.

Ive been runing on 7.06 kernel wt overclock 1200 & (smartass governer) for sometime a while and i have no problem with it :D
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Possible issue with L5 unless this was something that occured on OEM as well and I just never noticed...

I am noticing lately that WiFi doesn't automatically reconnect if the connection was dropped for whatever reason, or the phone temporarily left the area of the WiFi. I have to go to Settings > Wireless & Network > WiFi Settings to trigger that auto-reconnect. It doesn't require me to actually do anything, all I do is go to the WiFi settings menu and it just reconnects by itself. I don't remember having this issue on my OEM software.

FYI, this phone is WiFi use only. No cellular service. Wanted a homephone and nothing beats free. GrooveIP = ftw.

Some wifis I don't connect to automatically, some I do, it seems it depends on the wifi, you can try a stock build prop, that speeds up the wifi scan interval and see if that helps.

My phone would always reboot on corn 7.06 with saurom kk4.

Never happened on other versions of corn and currently on another kk4 with 7.0a and no reboots.

I was never able to figure it out but the 7.0a is fine for me.
[Captivate Android Development] BxingFetus:
My Cappy is a 10.11 build. I have Rogers uxkh2 bootloaders, and Corn 7.06, RFS, and Legend 5 And when i do flash, its from uckf1 no bl Odin, and i factory rest twice(probably over kill) but doing so I have had no issues in battery, performance, nothing on any kk4 or any stable corn kernel. however it is a lengthy process, hope this helps.

[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Not sure if it matters any or if it's related at all, but sometimes after my phone has sat for a bit(staying in my wifi zone) and I unlock it, GrooveIP is disconnected. I have no way of knowing if it was due to the WiFi disconnecting/reconnecting or something else. Neither of these issues happened on OEM KK4.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
You can try reflashing the ROM, perhaps you had a bad flash, or you may want to go back to OEM KK4, it sounds like it might work better for you.

Just sayin
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Do you think it could be kernel-related, or is it definitely the ROM? I really like this setup and would hate to go back to stock if there's some sort of way around this.

The problem of reconnecting to wifi automatically, GrooveIP signing out after X hours of inactivity, GrooveIP sometimes not letting calls come in are all intermittent. If I could go with a different kernel or a different version of this ROM that would be ideal.
[Captivate Android Development] robm1911:
Have you tried the stock build.prop ctt60 posted yet?? If not try it. If so check your router settings and set the renew IP address to anything but never.
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
You can try version 4 posted in the op. I'm not sure what else to do about your situation. The only difference is, code wise, than stock kk4 is the build prop and hosts file. Anything to do with wifi or internet is the same as stock kk4.
[Captivate Android Development] Jose0726:
The same wifi thing was happening to me on 7.06 kernel..i did a fresh full wipe install with the other link given..not sure if its 7.0A or 6 it says (CL614489)..but now its working and locking fine
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Had some weird issues today...

I decided to upgrade from Corn 7.0a kernel to 7.6 to see if it would work for me a second time around. It kept having random system halts that could only be fixed by a battery pull or holding volume+power. Twlauncher also crashed a few times and would freeze the phone once I clicked "force close" on the popup.

I upgraded to Glitch and then tried installing CM9 which I did in the wrong order but didn't realize it at the time, so it kept reboot-looping after the ATT boot screen. I then installed Semaphone to use with CM9 thinking that would fix the issue(still not knowing what I did wrong initially), same reboot-loop. Ran the easy-root KK4 .bat in my sig, had some reboot-loop issues with 7.0a, ran easy-root .bat again, reinstalled 7.0a + l5 + stainless + tw 4.0 + all my stuff. Everything seemed back to normal.

Now I'm getting the occasional "The application TwLauncher(process com.sec.android.app.twlauncher) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." with the option to "force close" again. It's happened 5 times in the last few hours and this last time "force close" didn't work, it just froze the phone for about 10-15 seconds and then caused it to reboot.

What could the problem be? This is a fresh install of Corn 7.0a kernel, Legend 5 ICS FW ROM, L5 Stainless theme, TW 4.0, and all my apps. I didn't even restore anything via Titanium Pro because I wanted to be sure I had everything freshly installed and updated due to all the problems today. TW 4.0 worked fine before all this and it's the only launcher I like so far because it's the only one that lets me apply a single-screen sized wallpaper, holo zooms in on it for some reason, and I don't want a market app installed to do something the launcher should be capable of doing.

ETA: After the reboot from the 5th TW 4.0 failure I went to reload GrooveIP and TWlauncher crashed yet again. That's 6 times now in just a few hours, no idea why.

ETA2: #7 and #8 just occurred but they both allowed me to "force close" without the phone freezing or rebooting. I rebooted in to recovery, wiped cache, reinstalled TW 4.0, cleared cache again, rebooted normally. As I unlocked my screen I was greeted with #9. Ugh.

ETA3. While switching to hololauncher temporarily I had error #10. Everything has been smooth since switching launchers via home-switcher, though. Would like to get this sorted out so I can have my TW 4.0 back. :(
[Captivate Android Development] BxingFetus:
@johnnyrichter, I've never liked Tw4, I have played with it enough to know of some bugs that will just crash it and over and over. Some of the changes you can make don't agree with the phone layout. Tw3 works good, its dependable. You might find you have less issues using it.

Sent from the land of Defrag
[Captivate Android Development] crt60:
So you upgraded to corn 7.06 and had problems then you installed cm9 and then semaphore kernel and its bootlooping and then you

installed stainless and tw4, and what?

You need to go back to stock gingerbread, one that makes new partitions, then odin flash corn 6.03 kernel, then flash Legend 5 full wipe.

I've had great luck with corn 6.03.

Not quite sure what to make of it all...
[Captivate Android Development] johnnyrichter:
Yeah, the install process went from easy-root to 7.0a via Odin one-click + Legend 5 > 7.6 via Odin3 v1.7(system halts and tw 4.0 errors)> Glitch via CWM(Boot Loop) > CM9 ROM via CWM(Boot Loop) > Odin one-click back to KK4(worked) > Semaphone via Odin(Boot Loop) > Odin one-click back to KK4(Boot Loop) > Easy-Root again to back to 7.0a(Boot Loop) > Odin one-click back to KK4(works now) > Reinstall of Legend 5 / Legend 5 Stainless theme / TW 4.0 / all my apps.

Basically back to the exact setup I had before all this happened, a setup I had little to no problems with, but the TW 4.0 issue that occurred during 7.6 kernel came back with a vengeance until I set HoloLauncher as default in my phone settings AND home-switcher. It was a long series of unfortunate events most likely caused by user error. I may have gotten a little ahead of myself with this stuff, and the lack of clear instructions on most kernel/ROM threads contributed to that a little because for the most part I was guessing when trying out different kernels and ROMs.

I had originally wanted to use Corn 7.6 because of all the extra options and overclock(1200mhz makes such a nice difference) it had over 7.0a but the random and constant system halts made it unusable, even after trying to tweak some things in CWM. Then I had the idea of trying out Glitch kernel and CM9 ROM but I made the mistake of installing kernel first when I should have installed ROM first, according to what a poster told me in my thread linked below.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1767208

Any time I need to go back to stock to fix stuff and start over from scratch I use the Odin one-clock method linked in my sig, the one you supplied in your post.

---------- Post added at 09:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 AM ----------

I chose TW 4.0 over TW 3.0 due to the added options and because it allowed me to apply single-screen sized wallpapers. Will TW 3.0 do that as well? I wouldn't mind sacrificing some options or trying a whole new launcher as long as I can apply a wallpaper and not have the launcher zoom in on it like Hololauncher keeps doing.

ETA: GO Launcher EX works great and seems to be a lot better than TW so I'll just stick with that. Never did figure out why TW 4.0 decided to start acting up but I did figure out what I did wrong yesterday when trying new kernels and ROMs. Now I can go back to trying stuff out.

I have been playing with Lightening Launcher lately. Pretty cool, it does take a bit to learn but is highly customizable.
