Is there any way to make the notification sound play on the speaker instead of in my headphones when I'm playing music? I remember that I could set it before in slim ics, but can't find it in bean. I can deal with the occasional notification, but it would nice to fix it for when I'm in the car.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Just a note that if you're in the US, wearing headphones of any sort while driving is illegal in pretty much every state. Wearing one is generally legal (e.g. Bluetooth), but the moment you put in a second earbud, you're violating the law.
[Captivate Android Development] neoman4426:
They're likely routing the phone's audio through the car stereo, using Bluetooth or an AUX cable or something.

my battery is draining fast :/ Cell standby 50 % screen only 26 % :/
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
I see the same thing and am trying to track down what is causing it using BetterBatteryStats BUT I need my battery to not fully drain by morning so I can see whats causing it.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Do one thing at a time and leave it overnight. For example, tonight put it into "Airplane Mode". If the battery is still drained when you wake up, then it is probably something other than the radio causing the problem and the next night you can try disabling something else.
[Captivate Android Development] Wakamatsu:
That can happen, especially if you're coming from a different ROM or if there's a major change between versions. It does settle down after a few charge cycles.
[Captivate Android Development] MarcianoS:
Is Maps using a huge amount of battery? I found a post on AndroidForum claiming it's Latitude. Apparently you need to log onto Latitude from Maps, enable location sharing, then disable it. I did that, and will keep an eye on battery use tomorrow.
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
I will try that tonight.
[Captivate Android Development] Snow.Goose:
Yeah, I'm using an aux cable. I'm the passenger most of the time anyways haha. Any ideas on how to divert the sound to the speaker?
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
2% drop overnight while in Airplane mode. I guess its the modem but what is really strange is that I didnt have this problem in SlimICS with the same modem.
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Well, we're not quite there, yet. =)

Now we have to figure out what's causing your phone to wake up so frequently overnight when you're not actively using it. It could be your phone constantly searching for a better signal or it could be one of your apps polling the network frequently, etc.

Have you purchased "Better Battery Stats" from the Play Store or downloaded it from the developer's post here? If you have a 2-3 hour period where you can set the phone aside to get a good reading, here's what I would do:

1. Install "Better Battery Stats from the Play Store or the link above.

2. Plug the phone in and charge it to 100%.

3. Reboot the phone.

4. Unplug the phone and let it sit for 2-3 hours without use.

5. Open up Better Battery Stats and look at "Partial Wakelocks" and the other stats "Since last boot".
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
I have BBS installed and will charge my phone so that its fully charged before I goto bed and leave it running overnight in normal mode so that I can see tomorrow what is causing the wakelocks.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Ok Guys 2.8 is out as always read the changelog carefully. GPS is working, as in it sees sats however you will need to fiddle with the location data to get it to lock. As of now the kernel provided is semaphore, however compiled from source, in this case 2.4.5. Apart from that everything should be smooth sailing. Hit the thanks button for the team and the beta testers.

Cheers
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Awesome, but what does this part mean? :D
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
Huh. I thought I had location reporting disabled, but when I sent to check the settings, it was back on. Maybe the flash to 2.7 or a new Maps version changed that? I went and looked at my history for the past week and, sure enough, it showed me most of the places I'd traveled to outside of the house. I changed "Maps > Settings > Location settings > Location reporting" to "Your location is not updated" late yesterday. I had been seeing Maps hogging the top of the battery usage chart, and today (so far) it's near the bottom.
[Captivate Android Development] lordxentris:
Go online with the Phone, run "GPS Status" app, go to the menu, select "Tools", then select "Manage A-GPS State", and select "Download". Thanks all :)
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Many apps handle this. I personally use GPS Aid (paid) but each their own to what app to use. :)
[Captivate Android Development] grndnl:
could you recommend a free version of a similar app? or anyone?

And what about the famous H3llstorm_GPS_Fix?
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
I did it with GPS Status. The fix only updates the data to use to work with the satellites, it doesnt download the location data.
[Captivate Android Development] droyd666:
I just flashed from 2.7 to 2.8, then I installed the extras and gapps updates for 2.8. The flickering when I turn the screen on and off seems to have disappeared, which was my only problem with 2.7 and I haven't really tested the GPS because I don't really use it in my country. I noticed that the rom now uses Semaphore kernel but when it boots, I still get the little devil kernel notification that says something like "devil kernel data set", I cant remember what it says exactly but you all know what I mean. I was just wondering if this is a problem or if it is supposed to boot like that?

Update: Every single time I reboot the phone, it says "android is upgrading " and the one app that doesn't work anymore is poweramp. I tried uninstalling poweramp and then reinstalling it but it was no good, it said "insufficient storage available" when I have over a gig or storage available. I really don't want to do a full wipe, so does anyone know if i'm overlooking any options to fix this before I try doing a full wipe?

Downloaded 2.8 and the MD5 file. Need help - What am I supposed to do with the MD5 file.

Always just flashed new versions before. Is there a new step now?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Only purpose for MD5 is to make sure your download isn't corrupted.
[Captivate Android Development] OKAstro:
But how do I use it?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Google it lol
[Captivate Android Development] flxdms:
MD5 hashes will tell you whether or not your download is corrupt. If the md5 hash of the md5sum file and the rom file match, then the download isn't corrupt. There are applications on the Android market such as Hash Droid and Android File Verifier that will check if the files match for you. Compare both files. If they match, you are good to go.

Comparing MD5 hashes isn't mandatory, though. I wouldn't bother with that.

Check to see if big mem is turned on in Semaphore Manager app. If so,

1. uncheck big mem in Semaphore Manager app

2. reboot

720p video should work

if you want big mem (like me)

3. configure video for 480

4. check big mem box in Semaphore Manager app

5. Reboot.

I did a dirty flash from 2.7 and there was some slow downs and minor bugs. Did a full wipe and 2.8 is running smoothe! Thanks for the rom guys
[Captivate Android Development] zzmomo73:
Well for the android is upgarding make sure that u don't have clear cache at boot (should be found somewhere in the kenrel settings) and for the poweramp issue, I had the same issue a while ago, can't really remember how I fixed it but I think there is a odex file u have to delete in data/folder for poweramp (can't remember what it's called but it should have poweramp in its name)
[Captivate Android Development] diakonos:
My PowerAmp (paid version) is running as normal after update to 2.8.

I already have a wallpaper set so how can I see the new one described in the change log?

How to activate "single finger notification gestures"?
[Captivate Android Development] pqee:
When you get a text message or Gmail for example, swipe your notifications down. Now you can swipe down on individual notifications to expand them, or swipe down then up to collapse them. Before you had to use 2 fingers.

Expandable notifications only work with apps that support it (standard messaging app, gmail etc...)
[Captivate Android Development] k2ham:
Minor issue... I have Swiftkey3 installed and have it designated as my default input method. However, every time I reboot the phone the default reverts back to the Android keyboard. While it is easy enough to use the selector notification to change the keyboard back to Swiftkey3 when I first use the keyboard, it is annoying.

Am I missing something needed to make the chosen alternative "stick"?

Thanks!

I'm going to be honest according to the app nothing is really wrong. Have you considered battery age?
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
No I hadnt BUT I before I upgraded from SlimICS I was able to go 2 days on a charge with a few more apps installed. I doubt the battery has gone bad in 3 weeks. I also only dropped 8% overnight in airplane mode so something is causing a large drop.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Modem. If you don't discharge on airplane mode the change modem.
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
Ok, but its the same modem I used under ICS. I guess I will try another one and continue the modem two step.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] brianray14:
I second that. Power amp running w/out issues for me too
[Captivate Android Development] k2ham:
For some reason I had it installed to the SD card instead of the phone (I don't remember doing that). Once I moved it to the phone via TiBu, I rebooted the phone and everything is fine.

Thanks for the help!
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Ya it shouldn't change but I've had kernel changes make how a modem work change. Specially early JB (kernel being updated every few days trying to get it right) I had to DL 20 modems to test lol in the end I said eff it and stuck with a Claro modem for the int lol.
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
Ok, so some interaction is causing this. I think I will leave my wife's phone on SlimICS for now until I have this resolved because she already complains about short battery life (while having the screen brightness cranked and 30 apps all running) :silly:

If I'm on 2.6 do I need to flash 2.7 before I flash 2.8?

Also what's the md5 sum zip for? Does that needed to be flashed as well?
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Nope
[Captivate Android Development] ZephCr:
Is it necessary to flash the md5sum zip? (Sorry last question)
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
You cant flash the MD5 sum zip. It is only to verify that the rom zip you downloaded is correct. Track down md5sum and run it at the command line with the rom filename "md5sum <romfilename>" and it will output the md5 value and make sure this matches the contents of the text in the md5sumzip file.
[Captivate Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:
Craziness updating from 2.7 to 2.8?!

I'm pretty sure this is probably an accidental incompatibility between theRealDarkSlim Gapps/Gnow and 2.8 (I used the version before it was updated on.. actually just now ;) ) but I wanted to show some oddity that happened before I reflashed.

As you can see from the screenshot, it appears that my phone has double icons in the lock slider and seems also to think I have Face Unlock installed (which I don't because I can't use it :P ). This is the most obvious glitch, the extended power menu and "Upgrading apps" notification thing at first boot also has odd issues. We'll see if the updated packages fix it, but I was rolling on the floor about this. :cowboy:

--- Edited

Nope, it was the lock-screen transparency mode that was at fault. Hope to see it updated soon ;)

Gmail had been showing me briefs of multiple unread messages in the notification area but it stopped doing it for some reason. Does anybody know how to get that back?
[Captivate Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:
If it's not the first notification, it doesn't show the previews by default. This is by design. To show it, simply drag down on the notification. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] hellenicboy:
from 2.6 to 2.8

I was on 2.6 and jumped to 2.8. I format everything 3 times first ( not sure if i need to do that on every install) and then i installed the rom and then the 2.8 gapps update. I think that was a mistake because I got some error messages. So I formatted dalvik cache and installed first Gapps and then on top I did the 2.8 gapps update. Is that the correct way?

All works fine including power amp.

I also notice that when I am at default density it is a bit smoother and snapier. When I go to 240 it is almost as smooth but not as the default.

Great job. Very pleased with it.
[Captivate Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:
Well, yes, as long as you were successful. To my knowledge, after 2.7, you don't need to do the formatting dance anymore, and the 2.8 gapps update probably assumed that you already had the gapps from the 2.7 version (didn't post what the errors were, so just guessing), which is why it worked when you installed the normal gapps and then the update ;)
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
It HAD been showing previews for multiple emails and now only does it if there is only 1.

The JVT modem sucked down 93% of my battery last night. Guess thats not a good choice.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Yes previews are collapsed if you have multiple notifications. You can expand using 1 or 2 finger swipe down.
[Captivate Android Development] kevria:
Very weird since the multiple previews were showing up without me doing anything other than dragging the notification bar down. I will let a few emails build up and try it.

Edit: Yeah, 2 finger swipe down on that notification did it. I wonder why it showed multiple by default then suddenly stopped.
[Captivate Android Development] lordxentris:
A weird thing just happened, my notification pull down only dragged down to like half the screen, a reboot fixed it, I am currently on the default themes and my dpi is at 240. Will notify if I get the same later.
[Captivate Android Development] droyd666:
I installed 2.8 and everything has been running great. Today, after using poweramp for a few minutes, it suddenly stopped working and I tried reinstalling it but now it says that it couldnt be installed due to insufficient space. I already tried wiping cache partition and fixing permissions but none of them worked. I also read that i should try to delete a file from data/data or data/app but they are both empty.
[Captivate Android Development] Tsaukpaetra:

I don't know if it's rom's bug or not, but sometimes when I multitask too many apps, my phone freezes and the touchscreen doesn't work anymore, the screen is still on but when I touch or swipe or any thing, nothing happens.

[Captivate Android Development] FrankI897:
I just want to thanks developers of this ROM, Awesome Rom, incredible fast and smooth... I was on CM9, flashed SlimBean 2.8 three times, first one gave me an error that said something about an update.zip, I just needed to flash again, so I did, and then it left me stuck on Semaphore boot screen, I did what I found the simplest and nothing-to-lose option, take battery out and in again, and flash again, this time with full success... so far It's being working like a charm, didn't even need to flash modem...

Just a silly question, I use HOLO HD Launcher, I set it to use it Always, but now if someday I want to back to defualt one, where can I find an option to switch to it, or again be able to back where I can be switching Launchers with Home Button.. Thanks in advance!
[Captivate Android Development] aduka:
Very large battery consumption. How can I configure to consume less?

PS. I'm Ukrainian. Sorry for my English.
[Captivate Android Development] Snow.Goose:
Settings, then apps, then press menu button. Should be an option to reset app preferences. Will let you reset defaults. After, you'll be prompted to choose the launcher when you press home.
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Confused Slim default is Holo HD. What do you mean as default, stock JB? If so you need to flash extras zip.

Thats something you need to figure out. Better battery stats.

Flashing Modem KK4 & missing Battery Charge indicator

I am running Slim Beans 2.8 since last 24 hours upgrading from CM9 stable 9.1 and it is running smoothly except No charging indicator when on AC power and Short battery life, when checking "About Phone" it gives i9000UGKG3" as my baseband. Can I flash KK4 modem on it, will it make any difference to battery life?

I am using the phone in Pakistan where only 2G network is supported on GSM 900 & 1800
[Captivate Android Development] ngochuy:
No, kk4 is only used for stock roms and kk4 based roms. All ICS & JB roms have to used i9000 modem and kg3 is the best now
[Captivate Android Development] UserNamer:
Or you can use any of these. If you're on AT&T in the US, try the ones which default to 850mhz (list is in the index file at the top).
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
It's not that you can't use AT&T modems is that most of them cause static. Some barely noticeably others unusable. Hence why we recommend i9000 modem.

Can i use devil kernel for slimbean 2.8 ? I'm wondering about the partition layout u use in this rom. Is it same to layout of CM10?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] m1batt1:
Yes you can. I'm running 2.8 with devil right now. the partition layouts are the same now so just flash and go.
[Captivate Android Development] brianray14:
Affirmative. Our phones weren't built for running platforms as RAM dependant as jb so multitasking is going to be at a minimum no matter what ROM you run

just upgraded to 2.8 from 2.6 and all is good. Though i have never had a functioning camera and have used 3rd party apps which work fine. how do i or what did miss to get a stock camera to work. the one in gallery loads ucam by default and i can clear defaults in ucam and gallery but it still does it.

any ideas?

do i need to wipe and reflash or reflash gapps again?
[Captivate Android Development] FrankI897:
Thanks dude, I'll give it a try.

Yep, sorry for the poor explanation, And yes, I flashed all packages, SlimGapps, Srec_Voicedial_Gnow, and Extras too (except Face Unlock) and now I realize that's why I have both launchers, and that was my question, if I set one of them as "Use Always" how can I switch back to the other one? Is Snow.Goose's way right?
[Captivate Android Development] Kyuta Syuko:
Yes. Settings -> Manage Apps -> Current Launcher -> Scroll to bottom and Reset Defaults.

Ok, i just tried to flash this rom, coming from AOKP JB.

I booted into recovery, wipe data/ factory reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache, and then choose this zip.

Then i got some message after flashing saying that the filesystem is incompatible with this rom?

I then tried to flash again - and my phone immediately rebooted.

I now turn the phone on, and i have a persistent semaphone logo. Im trying to, but i cant seem to get into recovery. (its all 3 buttons right?)

Not sure what went wrong, but i would like to get it fixed. Worst case scenario i have a jig and can get into download mode that way (which to flash to from there though?)
[Captivate Android Development] prbassplayer:
Check FAQ
[Captivate Android Development] PizzaAmerican23:
i did. Apparently, i should have recovery since i have the semaphone kernel on there right? Is it possible my key combo for recovery doesnt work? or im pressing the wrong buttons?

also, where can i just find an odin package by itself? i have a new kernel downloaded and ready to flash, but dont know where to get odin.
