You know, as a total n00b, who doesn't benchmark his phone or anything, the best part of this entire package is the battery percentage :D

But seriously, this put at ease a lot of my fears about doing anything to the phone. I see all these posts about people having [seemingly] serious issues. Ive always been good with this type of thing, but I didn't want an unreplaceable paper weight. Now, I think im gonna go headfirst into all the fun stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I did this to rerturn to my last good config. Its Odin. Then another Odin. Then SREv1.1a update. Was working great and seems to be restored there now..... Check this is how I was told and what worked.....

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Check for this post: It has a couple of links if you havent saved previous d/l's: It's Post 701 I think.... It has a link to the jh3 it says to use, but you need to have saved one of the previous update.zip files from a previous SREversion

1. Get the JH3 ROM (compressed RAR file with TAR and PIT inside)

2. Use Odin3_v1.0 to flash the JH3 TAR file downloaded in Step 1.

3. After phone reboots, open up Settings>About Phone and look at the Baseband version. It should show I897UCJH3.

4. Download latest file in OP of this thread, which will include Odin3 executable, Update.zip, plus the TAR and PIT for the Unhelpful Kernel.

5. Use Odin3_v1.0 to flash the Kernel TAR file downloaded in Step 4. (remember to use the TAR and PIT downloaded in Step 4, Odin will try to default back to the one you used in the first run)

6. After phone reboots, open up Settings>About Phone and look at the Baseband version. Again, it should show I897UCJH3.

7. Set "Mass Storage Mode" in the USB settings on your phone, connect the USB cable, and mount the drive.

8. Copy the Update.zip from the file downloaded in Step 4 to teh root directory of the internal SD card (rename or overwrite any existing update.zip file)

9. Turn off the phone, go into recovery mode and re-install packages.

I installed todays one step process and my phone locked. Twice. That's why I started over.I did all this and am now back to where I was most of today. Reinstalling apps thru Titanium. Got Rom Manager, but I'm not really sure what to do once I set it up. It should be the only new thing to backup after all restores of programs.

Sorry for the noobiness. I really appreciate your help.

[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
oooh, lied again, they are flashing modem.bin, this will work :)

oh, modem.bin and zImage... damn
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
Same thing happened to me. After this happening to me a few times in the past few days, I'm actually just doing a fresh jh3, then applying this, and a lag fix, and some other stuff that i have on EVERY one of my roms, then I'm going to do a nandroid of it so that I always have a back up to fall back on.

... You're tugging at my heart strings here!
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
I'd say wait on it... it's using a stock Vibrant kernel and what appears to be a modem.bin snatched from an international froyo rom. I'm pretty sure any modem.bin from an HSUPA area would work- The real lesson here is that there's something in the vibrant kernel source that the Captivate kernel source is missing and THAT is the limiting factor- once that gets figured out we're in business.
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
This is where installing a vibrant modem on a separate rom would work. I might actually do this.....

Have a HSUPA rom so that when I tether, I can get high speed upload, and when I need the phone I'll just go back to another rom. Of course, until someone figures everything out!
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
I'd say give it a day or two before you go into a flashing fit- concepts tend to evolve into full blown fixes in short order around here once a breakthrough like this is made.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I successfully did this, as I noted in another post. So far so good. Restored with Titatium. Now, before I try again, what is Rom Manager, and would it have saved some of those start overs?
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
Rom manager is an application that allows you to do back ups of your roms. so if you have a stock rom, and you make a back up of it, you can always revert to this stock rom in the future. Best app available on the market. I paid for the premium as a donation.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Ok, setting up Rom Manager and saving where I am now. JH3 and SREv1.1a, lagfix4. Then I will try again and if I have to start over again, I'll have stock JH3 and current working JH3 JRE1.1a and lagfix 4. Worked great before. And I can always Odin to start. Any help for a 1st time Rom Manager user would be appreciated..... =)

Success applying this. Though I preferred the external sd partition lagfix which may have caused hangs due to the oc kernel doing funky things with userinit. If someone can verify and/or assist me in finding a way of going back to external while on this kernel... Super. If not I will continue playing with this for a day or two then revert.

Thanks op.

So i am running SRE 1.0 with the EXT4 512mb fix. Would I have to remove that and reapply SRE 1.2.1 then add the separate fix?
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
You should be able to install SRE 1.2.1 regardless of current installed fix. In order to install a new fix though you'd have to remove your current fix, install the new one, then run it. (Keep in mind that removing any lag fix can be risky business, so make sure you have a backup, and if you're the paranoid type, backup and reflash)

Possible fix for the swype "blue box"

Not sure if anyone else has run into this problem, or if it's even related, but a few days after flashing I897UCJH3 and SRE 1.1 my sywpe keyboard quit working. Everytime I tried to use it the keyboard would be highlighted with a blue box and wouldn't type a thing. After searching I came up empty. I then tried to restore swype from titanium, and it fixed it. I can attach the 2 restore files containing swype from titanium if it helps anyone. I still kind'a new dealing with android...just came from the WM camp.
[Captivate Android Development] sevenvt:
miscommunication... i applied external sd lagfix after this, captivate hung, black screen. Alone, this works fine, but for me, for some reason, running anything intensive with both applied ended up in black screen and would later return with all services restarting.

very strange...

This happened to mine too, then I reflashed JH2 and tried SRE one more time and it worked. Good thing I had just backed everything up with Titanium lol.

BUG Report: Possible Issue With Choosing Network Operator...

Designgears,

The only reason why I discovered this was because my reception

at home

has been terrible. I kept making calls and the calls were dropping. I was told by the ATT rep that the 3G Coverage is mediocre and I should force an EDGE connection and disable automatic switching.

They linked me to this tutorial...

https://www.att.com/olam/tutorialSupportAction.olamexecute?event=displaySelctedTutorialTopic&deviceId=12000&categoryId=cat354820&tutorialId=2931938

You will find that:

APPLICATION > SETTINGS > WIRELESS and NETWORK>MOBILE NETWORKS>NETWORK OPERATORS>

"SEARCH NETWORKS" or "SELECT AUTOMATICALLY"

is missing..

Anyone else have the same problem? Is there something I need to do on my end to correct this issue?

Thanks for your help...
[Captivate Android Development] Fate0n3:
so before applying this we should flash to a stock rom? All that is done is a lag fix, root, and the battery circle mod, so should I still flash a stock rom back on it before attempting this?
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
I am indeed missing this as well. I've seen some weird things with my calls, but nothing horrible.
[Captivate Android Development] ranova:
I remember those menu options awhile back - it may be due to the new settings.apk that was made for the MobileAP - not 100% on that
[Captivate Android Development] rajendra82:
I am JH2 and haven't used SRE. The option is missing for me, and Default Setup is greyed out. I think this is a JH2/JH3 bug unrelated to SRE we just uncovered. Maybe we can get it fixed, now that we know about it.
[Captivate Android Development] jimtastic:
I'm running jf6 with sre, and it is also grayed out. I THINK it was grayed out before, as I seem to recall going in there before today (i just applied sre yesterday) and not being able to do anything.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
The new settings.apk knocked them out... However AT&T is just stringing you along, that wont help your signal.
[Captivate Android Development] Jeepsdaddy:
You are probably correct. My only counter argument is that my blackberry did experience improved reception on EDGE.

Anyways, I'm dropping the issue because no matter what I still preffer your superior rom. I'm sure its only a matter of time before this gets resolved.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
This all worked for me and successfully got me from stock JF6 with 1 click root and Titanium, to JH3 these guys build and kernal SREV1.1a from yesterday 8/27/10. two times I got the SAME result running todays 1-rename-and-move method. removed (AFTER this time installing Rom manager and following its instruction). Then I ran update.zip . Is it possible that I should have disabled the working lagfix b4 doing all this? Backed up with Rom Manager then ran it. So far so good. Now to I use Rom Manager to create a 2nd backup, one of this mod?
[Captivate Android Development] Krad:
Anyway to get this without the OC 1.2ghz? Can you make a separate one with out it?
[Captivate Android Development] Clienterror:
Just install this and run setcpu to max 1000 and min 100 and youre GTG.

[Captivate Android Development] crydee:
How do you mount your internal SD card? If I have a complete stock phone with baseband version JF6 do I need to do anything else like update that with JH3?

If the only thing I care about is the contacts am I good or do I need to do Ti backup too? Anyone have a link handy on how to use it?

Thanks in advance.

edit: NM I was confused on the internal SD card for some reason my computer shows 2 removable disks when I plug in but the 13.4 gb one is the internal sd card we have to copy too
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Here's where I think I am. JH3, this build, SREv1.2.1 flashed from today. I installed Rom manager 1st and made nandroid backup. Followed the instuctions to a t for the d/l and rename method. Then ran Rom manager again and created another current rom. Now I believe I SHOULD have my JH3 with and JH3 without srev1.2.1.

This is great. What's next? =)

Also, does Rom manager replace Titanium backup?
[Captivate Android Development] madjsp:
Anyone having GPS issues?

I have SRE, black bar w/ the circle battery mod, and the vibrant kernel for HSUPA and voice (working well!). Not sure which is causing problem, so I figured I'd start here.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate0n3:
No, Rom manager backups the ROM itself and Titanium from my understanding backups the apps. I could be wrong but that is how I have understood it.
[Captivate Android Development] Fate0n3:
So having root and lag fix already on the phone mean that, you should still flash a stock rom before attempting this? I have JH3 on the phone right now.
[Captivate Android Development] jhego:
Love the updates but is it possible to have a changelog on the versions?
[Captivate Android Development] Krad:
i dont' want to load or have setcpu running at all. It was great when we had a mobileap + usb tether option...
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
I'm for this too, but what I'd REALLY rather see is MD5 sums now that we're flashing kernels.
[Captivate Android Development] Clienterror:
What's wrong with setcpu? You can just set what you want your CPU to run and and check load on boot and you don't have to touch it again.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Problem with jh3.

when the phone loses the radio signal, its not getting back on the network unless I disable it and reactivate the radio with airplane mode or reboot.

Correction: Only a reboot restores the signal.
[Captivate Android Development] mostyle:
I thought that there were GPS issues withe the vibrant kernel mentioned elsewhere in other threads.. Can't remember specifically where but they said that GPS with the vibrant kernel was borked.

Provided DG is okay with it I can create a modified installer to suit what you're asking.

You're referencing SRE in general or to the kernel updates that Unhelpful makes? Unhelpful actually includes a changelog when he updates his releases in the thread listed here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=762171
[Captivate Android Development] ranova:
Designgears said he would re-release a standalone mobileAP and usb tether later. Lets hope so!

How did you do that? Change to Vibrat Kernel for HSUPA?

Madjsp,

I've been searching high and low for how to enable HSUPA on the Captivate. Can you link me to the tutorial or forum which guided you through that process. I'd like to have SRE + HSUPA. GPS doesnt concern me as much as having HSUPA & Voice.

Please Advise

If you don't like, make your own ;)
[Captivate Android Development] DJGonzo:
Thanks for the quick reply. I DO like your fix(?)(Can we consider this as a ROM or just a customization pack?:confused::p)

Anyways, I used to use the lagfix included but I haven't used it and I can still replicate the problem after a few boots.

I used latest one w/o lag fix and I can reproduce again after starting fresh. Which base ROM do you use?

Stock gave me problems and now I'm using latest leaked ROM.

Oh, and now I can't get into recovery mode :p, I flashed I9000 fw and I managed to flash back to stock but can't get to recovery mode. I'm sure I'm missing something dumb...

Its talking about your internal memory, not the internal sdcard.

The lag fix created a pretty large file in there and now its running out of space because it to big. On the captivate you should only do around 850mb or less.

While I understand (barely ) what you said, I have to ask..... what do I do now? Remove lagfixext2 or somehow modify it? I dont recall doing anything but clicking it in SLA app...
[Captivate Android Development] Fate0n3:
The lag fix creates a partition on the internal memory. They are saying if you are running out of memory it is due to the partition being too large. Most of these lag fixes base the partition size on the amount of free internal memory.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I understand that. What I dont know is if I can/should change the partition size (and if so, how?), or if I just remove lagfix. I am sure that is not the only answer, as I dont have THAT many programs yet.... =)
