Well, I flashed it before seeing this. I did wipe cache, dalvik, nstools, init.d, and then flashed 2.9.9sc.zip. The same thing happens with the brightness. You can set it to min over and over in settings. It will take effect and then just revert back to somewhere around 25% automatically. You can watch the phone suddenly become brighter without touching it. I just tried setting it to full brightness. It took effect and then automatically reverted... Strange...

He did restore data for 1 app - music paradise but that isn't a system app so I can't see that having caused the problem. I don't know if the problem existed when I first flashed the ROM.

I will do a nandroid backup, wipe data/factory reset and then see if the problem is gone - which I am assuming it will unless it is a bad flash.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

These kernels have their own auto brightness driver, so it's possible that auto brightness was enabled somewhere else. I've seen kernel settings persist across full wipe flashes. It's very strange.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

Not necessary at all. Only apps that control kernel features need data wiped from settings>apps
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
Thanks - I did see the auto-brightness setting in the kernel manager (Devil I think) and tried setting that, rebooting, and then turning it off. It didn't help. I have now done a full wipe (factory reset, cache, dalvik, system, init.d, semaphore, nstools) and then flashed X1fixed again. I'll report back after testing.

Edit: Well, even after the thorough wipe and not restoring any apps or even downloading any - the brightness setting can't be changed without it reverting back automatically...
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
Good find!! I have been using juicedefender but I am really liking greenify.....Of coarse,...It also helps to actually open each apps settings to ensure auto updates and other unwanted activity is off if possible.

I'm still on M2 running solid at 1200+120% live oc. I really can't believe how good this rom is...The only issue I didn't get worked out was the status bar on boot issue but it's soo minor..... I'm using my second cappy as a media device and not only does it sound great attached to any sound system using power amp and voodoo sound, But I also tried the tv out and it worked perfectly!!

I'll be back working crazy hours out of town again soon and as long as my phone is running like this, I think I have my phone (and media device) daily driver.......:victory:
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
Bro the problem i m having is not regarding oc, well my power button is responding very late some time i press it, notification lights gets on but screen stays blank as night (without stars) and i had to press it several times so that screen could respond... it seems instability to me due to devil karnel setting i messed up!

i hope next release will be with official or unofficial semaphore karnel... i m done with devil karnal :(

Ah, I recall another user having similar problems with devil. Time to check the poll again.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
I can't replicate this on my phone. Are you adjusting from settings>display?
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

Onscreenoff has an auto brightness setting. Could it be that?

Edit: wasn't using it but turned it on and it acted as you describe.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
OnScreenoff is actually running on the device but I didn't even consider that as the problem until you mentioned it. I have been going into settings - display - brightness and changing it. I would hit the home button and without the screen ever turning off, the brightness would automatically adjust. I will try turning that feature off.

Edit: Thanks rmntruexjr, that was it! Since it isn't my device, I just set it up and haven't really played around with all the settings so I hadn't even looked at the settings within onscreenoff. For now, I have disabled the service. Have people found that greenify is better and do you uninstall the onscreenoff app/service?
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Aha, I knew something else was controlling it. Greenify and onscreenoff do different things. onscreenoff can be used to hibernate aps that don't need to be running constantly in the background or starting up on their own when certain events trigger them. onscreenoff on the other hand is a general purpose battery saver app similar to juice defender but much less resource intensive.
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
Should we tern off the on screenoff?:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
No, but check out the settings and make sure you're satisfied with them.:good:
[Captivate Android Development] noone.dk01:
will be next version has some feature like experia z, sepphi :)

could you add more theme on launcher?
[Captivate Android Development] They Drew First Blood:
RE: onscreenoff, greenify, deep sleep

Assuming this is what you meant, I added bold letters above for emphasis...

I disabled onscreenoff when I installed Greenify and Deep Sleep Battery Saver- I guess I will turn it back on and check the settings, if you are using all three Sephhi. I think I was getting this autobrightness quirk as well.

@Mortal Eternity- I'm sorry you are having problems getting Devil kernel functioning well, I have swapped between Semaphore and Devil a bunch of times here without issue. I am using Devil's dualboot kernel right now and I have the CPU at 1200MHz+120%=1440MHz, with the voltage bumped up with nstools to match the recommended Semaphore OC voltages from this thread. SmartassV2 governor with SmoothUI enabled, ROW scheduler, XL RAM. Runs super nice. I did mess up the zRAM swapping kernels around so much though, and I forget the thread that helped explain those settings- too lazy to search for now because I am not sure it made any difference honestly. Battery isn't all that great with voltages like this, but the phone still doesn't heat up that much and games look awesome.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
I'm using onscreenoff and greenify. I think onscreenoff and deep sleep battery saver will clash.
[Captivate Android Development] They Drew First Blood:
RE: statusbar

Well put that theory to rest because I just had to flash the ROM over itself due to my somehow nuking the su binary. The default resolution of 240dpi returned and guess what... the statusbar was blank until I swiped it down. Typically I run the screen at 182dpi which might explain why I haven't run into this issue before. No closer to solving this riddle though, really... least obtrusive issue ever anyway.
[Captivate Android Development] Darkangels6sic6:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

Yeah I had this problem.. I just disabled on off screen

So When I was using go locker as my lock screen last night my lock screen would change to draw a pattern and I would have to reboot to fix it. I just uninstalled it for now. The keyboard was also little little laggy. Just switched to go.

Is there a way to make the home screen landscapes rotate? I've been looking but can't find it anywhere.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

How do I send from the quick reply box when I get a text message? It only has close and view but no send button so I still need to click view in order to go into the main messaging app and send it from there. Im using the Xperia keyboard by the way.
[Captivate Android Development] kevnuke:
Not sure if the stock launcher is capable of it but if you're using Go Launcher EX it's in Menu>Preferences>Action Settings>Screen Orientation.

You might be having an issue with the Send button being cut off by the screen resolution, try turning the phone to landscape orientation when that happens to see if you can see the Send button that way.

---------- Post added at 09:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

Possibly a bad download then. Did you check MD5 before flashing?
[Captivate Android Development] kevnuke:
Speaking of DPI issues, the little knobs on several toggles in the Settings menu don't appear if you change it from 240 dpi.

There's a minor typo in the Select Widgets menu where the entry for "Clock" has the "l" uppercase instead of the "c"

And I'm having an issue with the bundled TVPortal app not allowing me to upgrade to the pro version. I uninstalled it with TiBu and then reinstalled it from the Play Store and allowed me the option to upgrade.

Aside from these minor bugs it's a great ROM though. Very smooth and responsive in every other way.

download sms popup and turn on notification in sms popup app while turning off the normal notifications in messages--> settings-->notification--->off

you will have all the options you need there in popup... profit! :good:
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
I think you just tap on the message area and it sends.

Edit: It's funny, I saw what you saw before and at one point I think I sent it by just tapping in the message area, but I tried to send myself a text with another phone to replicate it and I couldn't even get the quick reply window to appear. So I went to messaging settings and noticed the quick reply wasn't even checked. I turned it on and then sent myself another text and the quick reply window appeared but looked different than the one before and had the send arrow.....looked on my other cappy and it is shut off in settings there too so I guess I dunno lol.....check to see its on in messaging app settings maybe.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Yep. It's not enabled by default.
[Captivate Android Development] BigBozolini:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

It's the gray arrow to the right of the text box.
[Captivate Android Development] droyd666:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

The problem is that I dont want to enable the window to pop up automatically, I meant when I click quick reply from the notification bar. There is no arrow to send. The only solution would be to use a keyboard that has a setting to use enter as send

Hey sepphi do you have a ROM for epic 4g touch?

[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
lol

@sepphie: bro please tell me if we can flash rubick animations to any phone any rom or its for just this phone and this rom only???
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Should work on any ics/jb rom. If it doesn't, flashing it creates a backup in a universal flasher folder on the sdcard. You can flash the backup to undo it.

Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

Very strange! OK. So I got my new mem card and every video I put on it is non playable. I even use MX. Some videos do this very strange thing and a little play button appears on the screen and it loops this tune?????? It even seemed that the tune was coming from power amp so I disabled it. Rebooted the device and rescanned videos and a couple still play the tune. All videos already on the phone still play off the card

Ps. Some of the folders are missing too. So I'm gonna have to go through the complicated process and do it again. The weird tune playing When I try to play them confuses me. And I disabled power amp so either it got enabled by boot or it's another app. It's like one time When I booted power amp was playing my videos audio in a background process on boot
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Whaaaat? I don't even know where to begin... Try clearing data for media storage and reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Does the regular(non inverted) one work?
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
i m having one issue... (not the above one but similar cuz its about the video playback) gallery player is not playing the videos which i shooted from the captivate (in previous rom versions) not even built in video player is playing it (always show can't play this video error) only mx player is able to play in but the fram rate of video is compromised big time... (very low) :eek:
[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
I actually didnt try it. I'll do so and let you know
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Just tested and they're playing fine for me.

Have you been switching kernels?
[Captivate Android Development] Mortal Eternity:
yes i have been... i switched devil karnal to semaphore sc then only to c (normal)... facing some issues because i messed up with devil karnel setting and still not able to sort it... i guess i need to do a full wipe then flash any previous version with semaphore karnal... then i had a second though... may be next version will be with semaphore so won't get back to any version with 4.2.1 and stick to new 4.2.2. :fingers-crossed:

if next version contain the devil karnel then i may go back to M2, 10.2, 9.3 or 7.5... i think they were the stablest ones (M2 or 10.2 for Performance and 9.3 or 7.5 in stability, free ram and longer battery life) :D
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
You should do a full wipe and flash the rom then semaphore before you boot up.
[Captivate Android Development] Darian71:
I actually noticed this when i first installed the ROM. I cant remember which one i was using at the moment as i am not around my phone but all i did was change the them from dark to light or light to dark, one or the other in the quick reply pop up settings and the arrow appeared.It's there on both,you just cant see it on i believe was the light theme.:cowboy:

Hi sephie I have a Problem, since I installed X1 3D Games and other aplications sometimes lag very much. Subway surf for example is unplayable because it sometimes needs time to recognize my Touch entries. Also a big problem I have is the Skype App. It lags very much and when I start Video transmission my mobile becomes very hot and in most cases after some time the Skype app crashes. On M2 it was better. I hope you find a solution. My settings in Devil Manager are: SmartAss V2, SIO, 120% OC, 50mb zram and swppiness 0. My Phone is the GT-I9010, but you may know that this is nearly the same as the captivate. I reallzy hope you can help me.

Sepphi, I'm Just curious as to what phone you plan on getting next. Or I should say which phone you are planning on developing for next.

Like I said yesterday this rom has rejuvenated my captivate. It is so smooth and stable, has so many features and options it's absolutely amazing. My galaxy s3 won't be ready until Friday. I've had it for about 3 months now but I can honestly say this rom is better than 99% of the roms for the galaxy s3.

Huge thank you!

Eagerly awaiting v5 to see if it will fix my sdcard problem
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Just finishing up themeing. Download will be ready in an hour or so.
[Captivate Android Development] LaZiEebOi:
I had a similar problem as you but except for me it didn't read internal or external after install but would see it only in recovery.. What I did was save ROM to internal, removed external and Sim , wiped data , format system, wipe dalvik and installed ROM reboot recovery and installed ROM again .. After setting everything up and I checked to see that the internal mounted I turned off the phone reinstalled Sim and SD and all was good.. My external for some reason was corrupted and I had asked this and that is what another member had suggested so hope it helps you .. Merry Christmas everyone !:beer:
[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
Initial the internal sdcard was detect because once it was up i installed TB and restored 57 apps from the folder on the internal card. Not sure what happened after that why it stopped mounting.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Huge update coming. It fixes all the bugs mentioned up to the last page of the thread. Uploading right now with md5.
[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
:D I got my sdcard to detect again. I had a thought that maybe there is an issue with the card file system. So it might be fixed if I plug it into my pc. Did that but only the external sdcard was picked up. Disconnected and saw where it said checking card for errors. When that completed I check storage and there it was. Taking a long time to calculate usage tho
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
V5 has been posted!
[Captivate Android Development] bluecopper:
GREAT! So as i asked before will flashing v5 do an update leaving apps and all intact or do i have to do full wipe again?

Cannot save backup for launcher unless have external SD.. Is there any way to change that ?

Two minor things I'd like to see changed. Not sure if it's a theme or OS change.

1. When am viewing apps in the drawer and I hold down on an app I only get the option to place on the home screen. Previously on other roms I had the option to un install or view app info.

2. The read and unread message shades are way too close
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Big difference between X1 and M2. I recommend that you switch to the unofficial semaphore kernel and readjust your oc settings.

Let me know how it goes.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
An S3 version is planned and the groundwork has begun.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Try reformatting the card in recovery, booting up with it blank and then copying the data over when in the rom.
[Captivate Android Development] sephhi:
Nope. Maybe X2 will have a lite version though;)
[Captivate Android Development] Darkangels6sic6:
Re: [ROM][4.2.2]Captivating(Xperia Themed)[X1](Rev2)

I have done that. As far as the weird tune in background it's just some glitch in the media or power amp I believe. As for the card it might be partial dud and have write problems Cause a couple videos worked,

but most of them don't.

I wiped cache cleared ns tools setting and cleared dalvik cache and then I installed the unofficial semaphore. I tried it again with the game subway surf, it was as bad as before. The game sometimes lags and doesnt recognize my touch entries. Nearly same with temple run 2. The only thing which changed is that now at the beginning the process system doesnt respond for a short time and it takes 2 minutes till I can use the phone without any lag. Any more ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] rmntruexjr:
:eek:I know my 1 vote was for semaphore, but only based on MY experience and it seems experiences vary quite a bit.....I'm still in favor of the unofficial semaphore 2.9.9 sc I think....It was the last one to only have the 1200 step and is the only one I can achieve 1440mhz stable and fast. It doesn't add the extra steps between 960 and 1440 when you use the 1200 step and 120% live oc.
