damn.

DesignGears had to go and release his SRE2.0b6 rom.....

my i9000 testing is going on the backburner for now.
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
JG8 or bell vibrant modem? i cant decide
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
JG8 ... 10 chars
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
If you want to be different you can try out the JH2 modem (Not the Captivate JH2 the other one =P), I played around with it when I was messing with the JPH froyo firmware and it was working just great. It's a little newer than JG8 but it's on the same bands (same carrier actually). I'd upload it, but I don't have it on my home computer!
[Captivate Android Development] Psytra:
Code : I9000UGJG8

modem : JG8

kernal : I9000 reoriented kernal 1.2

lagfix: ext4

I am using the above setup and I am super impressed. Everything is very snappy and I have not experienced any hiccups at all. I drained my battery pretty fast today but I think that has a lot to do with me playing asphalt today on my breaks. I made a few calls and the call clarity was the same as standard captivate firmware. I used wifi on a secure network and had no problems what so ever. I do not have any bluetooth devices so I am unable to test that out.

All in all I like I9000 better than stock and I will probably stay with a similar setup.
[Captivate Android Development] in_nujerz:
does the kernel have to be built with these modifications, or could we possibly just use adb to push certain files in place for example into an i9000 voodoo kernel and have the best of both?
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
In short yes, our sensor files and things of that ilk are different from the I9000 files, so the libs and such that the kernel calls also have to be changed in order for our phones to be compatible. I've personally tried swapping out sensor files, renaming things, you name it- these changes have to be made to the kernel in order for these things to work :)
[Captivate Android Development] ace518:
Why am I not surprised you have tried all of these things. Do you ever rest. Between flashing your phone, and being the guru of knowledge on these forums, when do you get a moment to sleep.

Really though, Zilch, good job around these forums. You are definitely the man that keeps support for all of these mods moving along.
[Captivate Android Development] Kaik541:
I'm more curious about when he's actually able to use his phone AS a phone. :D

I hope you're keeping an old RAZR on the side so you can actually get your texts/calls
[Captivate Android Development] ace518:
Seriously though.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Haha I do okay if I get my 5 hours :) I get most of my catch up sleep on the weekends... which is why you normally won't see me posting anything on Sat, Sun till 1PM EST :D

I sadly don't have the know-how (yet) to dev anything great, so I'm doing what I can to push and pull the community along (as well as expanding my bed of knowledge on the subject). The heart of a solid open source community is sharing ideas and building on other people's accomplishments, so it stands to reason that if I can help people just getting into it might be inadvertently cultivating the next dev who will really change things :)
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
rofl I actually do have an old RAZR laying around :D My standby though is my ancient jailbroken iPhone3G- which I normally leave at home so it doesn't do me any good... I spend a lot of time off the grid haha

Thank goodness for google voice!
[Captivate Android Development] xcaliburinhand:
Took a look at the melfas-touch file in I9000 vs. I897, overall not much has changed. Diff will dump a lot of differences, most are just line formatting changes (i.e. extra or missing whitespace). Other than the formatting there are some minor changes that are there to allow for using the same code for both the I897 and 959 (IRQs are now listed in an array, different arrays are used depending on the model).

As for cypress vs. melfas, the main code is exactly the same. The differences come in the modules that are included to update the controllers firmware. However, both firmware update mechanisms look almost the same. Haven't dug deep enough into them to see what the minor differences are.
[Captivate Android Development] TMC_Sherpa:
It can't be too horrible, the Captivate was a cypress phone before the Sep 6th drop although some of the melfas code was there before. I think Sammy may just be screwing with us :D
[Captivate Android Development] AhmadAlmousa:
Any body notice that the headphones don't work when making calls but it's working for media files ?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
decided to have a flashfest at work today and put i9000JM8 back on. there is definitely something up with this ROM. i lost 21% battery in an hour and 15 minutes
[Captivate Android Development] TMC_Sherpa:
Let me see if I have this straight, you want a awesome, fast, stable device that's a *PHONE* too? Huh I guess I'll have to get back into the code mine :P

Further observations on the WIFI problems in v1.2 reoriented kernel

Previously, I mentioned some wifi and power button problems of using v1.2 reoriented kernel in stock I9000 JM7 and JM8 ROM. The WIFI connection between my cell phone and the wireless router may stop working after a while (the notification bar still shows the wifi connection, but the internet browsing and downloading just hung there). I found out one work around to revive the wifi connection: by turning the wifi off, start the browser in the 3G (WCDMA), and use the browser to access the web pages under 3G. Then Turn on the wifi again, this time, the browser can reach out using wifi. I check my setting on the wifi, it was set as "Never Sleep". But after a while, the wifi simply cannot reach out. I guess that the wifi or some other parts of the kernel went to some kind of internal sleep mode, because the problems most likely happened after I locked the screen without touching the cell phone for a while (~30 minutes).

I further noticed that the problem of failure to turn on the cell phone by pressing the power button after power down only happens if the wifi problem occured before the power down. If the wifi has not hung, the power button will always be able to turn on the phone.

I in fact have tested 3 type of I9000 ROM, JM7, JM8, UGJG8, all of them have the same problems. But these problems are intermittent, more likely if i don't touch the phone for more than 30 minutes. I have done all of the tests under the stock ROMs with the v1.2 reoriented kernel and rooted (no further modifications was done on these ROMs).
[Captivate Android Development] AhmadAlmousa:
Just askin if anybody else having the same issue ... if yes then there's problem with the kernal or the rom isn't fully combatible with the device.. :D
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Who needs to call people, I only care about how fast my apps scroll >=(
[Captivate Android Development] in_nujerz:
So if it is simply some modified files could we get those files posted? I would like to try and push them with adb and see if that will be enough to get the voodoo kernel reoriented
[Captivate Android Development] TMC_Sherpa:
The modified orientation files are in the kernel source code. From a quick look enabling ext4 is the only real change on the kernel side of things, so in theory you could flash a I9000 ROM, do the voodoo fix, then add a Cap9000 kernel on top of that to make it all go. Its probably more complicated than that, I haven't looked at any of the other source files for the voodoo project.

Hey xcalibur, is there an official name for this thing yet? Reorientated Kernel just doesn't sound, well, very open source. It's too descriptive :)
[Captivate Android Development] in_nujerz:
Yes but that defeats whole purpose of this kernel if I could just push those files and it will work then I haver voodoo and hspa
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Pushing files into or out of I9000 firmware has been completely inneffective for me in all the testing ive done :P
[Captivate Android Development] TMC_Sherpa:
It's not a file, its part of the kernel. xcalibur has access to the voodoo source, if its easy to incorporate then maybe we have something soon if its a hard fix then maybe we have something later. *shrug* The only way to add it to the voodoo kernel right now is with a hex editor or test compile xcaliburs source with the ext4 flags set in the .config file and see what breaks. If I had an x86 based machine at work I would toss something out right now. Patience man, its only been a day :)
[Captivate Android Development] anosis:
If you get a free moment (probably not any time soon ;-) ) could you post that JH2 modem? Or can I extract it from Samfirmare out of a rom file?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
I actually just extracted it for my own use... lemme upload it on my ghetto DSL
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Ta daaaaaaaaaa- UGJH2 modem!
[Captivate Android Development] anosis:
Thank you !!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Sure thing, enjoy it. I just flashed it myself and it's working just great with the reorient kernel.

Interestingly enough the stock Captivate modem sounded like I was talking into a shoe, but this sounds crystal clear

Edit: There's an equally good chance I actually was talking into a shoe
[Captivate Android Development] raychang:
Zilch,

I am very surprised that no other people have the wifi problems in v1.2 kernel as I mentioned in post # 161. Which ROMs have you use? I am thinking about that the problems might have been covered by the modifications you have added on thus those problems did not show up in your system. Have you been successful with stock ROMs and the v1.2 reorientation kernel with no other modifications?

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
Funny you should ask, I happen to be running a 100% clean JF6 install right now (I was testing some things!) with ONLY the reorient kernel and my wifi is connected and running swimingly. The only thing I've done to this phone is root... well and flash the kernel and UGJH2 modem. But that's it... I've even still got the AT&T bloat.

Perhaps the issue is the nature of the wireless network you're connected to? Does this problem persist when attaching to another wireless network? This might even indicate a problem with a particular type of wifi encryption... I'm connected to some weak WPA wifi here, so maybe it's wifi configuration dependent?

Edit: Also to be fair after reading post 161, I haven't had it installed long enough to say definitively if I'm going to have a problem. I've only been home from work for 3 hours, and I installed the re-orient kernel last night, so there could still be a problem that I just haven't found it yet
[Captivate Android Development] raychang:
Zilch:

I am not sure, but one observation I am sure is that with the v1.2 reoriented kernel, if I won't touch the phone for ~ 30 minutes, the WIFI problems will likely to occure. But with the stock kernel, even if I don't touch it for 1 hour and later try to access the webwite with browser, it still runs very quickly. That is the reason that I suspect some part of the system go into some kind of sleep mode.
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
It's possible, I'll let my phone idle for 30 mins to an hour and see if I can immediately get onto Wifi, however my phone is 100% stock which means the wifi *WILL* got to sleep after a while, so I may experience the issue purely based on that if I immediately attempt to hit the browser before the wifi negotiates a connection
[Captivate Android Development] raychang:
The wifi problem I have encounterd with v1.2 reoriented kernel is almost stock but with the wifi setting as "Never Sleep". This setting have worked very will in the stock kernel. I mean, in both kernels, I choose the wifi setting as "Never goes to sleep"
[Captivate Android Development] Zilch25:
I'll try it as default, if I don't encounter the problem I'll switch it to never sleep and repeat it. Then again using HSUPA it would be kind of hard to tell the difference O_o Hell my HSUPA connection is snappier than my home internet connection.
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
zilch what exact step are you doing to get hspa?

I want to do the exact steps you do because for some reason I not doing it right.

I start by flashing to eugenes rom

then i open odin/download/flash modem jg8/ reboot

open odin/download/flash reorient

Then i get real excite and test...

then cry.

=== to make matters worse when i do set it up i don't get hsupa and my MobileAP connection works but computer says limited connection
[Streak 5 Android Development] cemian:
Hey everyone! Has there been any word if there will be a Cyanogen ROM for the Streak now that the kernel source has been released?? Would be pretty nice IMHO
[Streak 5 Android Development] marra2:
Don't think he has a streak to do a rom for us !
[Streak 5 Android Development] Amdathlonuk:
And I'm going to be controversial here........

I love Cyan roms, very quick and stable and very 'tweakable' with lots of options.

I had them on my G1 and Nexus, however they EAT the battery..:(
[Streak 5 Android Development] spences10:
Once all the lovley devs have sussed the source code for the streak a port is on the cards.
[Streak 5 Android Development] jmhalder:
Ill go out on a limb and disagree, im running cm 5.0.8 on my g1, i dont have my sim card in it (obviously its in my streak) i only use it as an alarm clock, with no data connection at all, it will last about 10 days on a 2200mAh battery, my experience battery wise has been no worse with cm compared to other roms... even a vanilla 2.2 build with gapps and the same dpi setting as a Evo would be fine with me... id kill for stock android.
[Streak 5 Android Development] flumps:
ive never experienced battery drain with cyan roms on my G1. completely the opposite infact.

cyan himself doesnt need to make a rom for streak with the source we can have ago at porting it over. but although his roms are fantastic i dont think they will be very good for the streak. its best we build our own cyans and set the bar for custom streak roms ourselves
[Streak 5 Android Development] DJ_Steve:
once we work out dells weird and wonderful edits to android source we should have some success :) but at moment theirs alot of cannot allocate memory problems

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speoples20:
As a lot of us do here we are constantly flashing new roms and what not that require fresh installs. I've been using Titanium Backup to restore my apps and data, which I love btw. The only thing is I have quite a few apps, around 120. Going one by one to restore them takes some time. Is there a way to auto install them without me having to press install on each one?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tempestrs4:
That is a feature of the paid version of Titanium Backup. When you send the developer a payment on pay pal, he will send you a file with a license key to unlock the pro features that you place on the root of your internal sd card. I highly recommend paying for it as it saves a lot of time and hassle.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZoinksS2k:
Yep, Titanium backup. With the licensed version, it will restore all your apps and data/settings in a batch job with no user interaction.

I wish AppBrain would do this too.

Lastly, I just switched over from the HTC EVO. The Cyanomod ROM (CM6) has remote backups through Google, so it will install the apps automagically. I'm pretty sure this is a Froyo thing, but CM6 is the only ROM I know of that does the auto-download/install thing.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speoples20:
Ah ok yeah was planing on getting this since I flash a lot.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] allareconnected:
+1 A must have for those of us who suffer from installing every Rom we can get our hands on! ;-)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] speoples20:
I just found out MyBackUp Pro does batch installs as well. I hadn't used it for a while but if you have root you are able to install everything plus fix the market links as well.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rizzxx7:
How do you like the vibrant compared to the evo? I had the evo for a week and liked it but I think the vibrant will have be the phone for me especially once cm6 is ported over
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] microfire21:
Mybackup pro does a good job too I use it because I flash like 3 times a week...it puts all your apps back as well as data if you tell it to.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LovellKid:
Could be IMO, but Titanium is 1000 X's better than My Backup Pro. Everything about Titanium is better, and the developer is amazing.

Hi!

Was looking for some good Midi controller app and found only ONE! it's Finger Play app, but it's quite not good...

There is one not finished app, with support for only small screens.. but i think it have much more potential, it is called MIDI Pad.

Soooo :)

Maybe there is someone who can start development of that kind of app.

From my side I will help with graphics and design, testings and with any kind of help I can provide.

For development start we can take MIDI Pad's source, as it's open and it's developer will be glad if someone continue it.

Midi pad is working through bluetooth, but it is too slow... I think we need wifi here!

source can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/androidmidipad/

Looking forward to you guys!

[Android Software Development] branded:

Hello,

I know that you can change the color of the text of a button when pressed using color state lists, but I was just wondering if anyone knows whether it's possible to bold the text of a button when pressed through XML?

Thanks!
[Android Software Development] androidlicious:
Bump. I'm still looking for the answer to this.
[Android Software Development] Gene Poole:
Probably not through XML; I think you'd need to override the Button class and implement onTouchEvent or maybe onDraw.
[Android Software Development] androidlicious:
Sorry, I completely did not see your reply. Well, I was hoping to apply a new style to a button when it was pressed, but given your answer, I am assuming that it'd probably wouldn't be possible to achieve through XML as well then.
[Android Software Development] luizfelipepg:
If I understand your question, you can implement the onclicklistener of the button and inside you can use the ->>>> button.setTypeface(null, Typeface.BOLD);

I hope that works :))))))

[Epic 4G General] cineung02:
what is samsung default 16 digit password? Where I could find the password for my samsung epic 4G. If some one could help me I will donate. thanks
[Epic 4G General] synnmox:
Alternatively...you can install the regular Epic drivers and plug in the phone...when given the three choice prompt, choose "tethered modem"...then select 3G tether. The phone will then connect on a COM port and you can then connect to your phone using CDMA Workshop, QPST, or whichever programming tool you prefer and flash the prl that way. I'm still working on getting the data up and running.

Default 16 digit should be 01F2030F5F678FF9, give it a try. You can also use CDMA Workshop to read and change your Epic's SPC, which is the way I prefer.
[Epic 4G General] dcorn619:
So, quick question, do I need a specifically modded rom to run my Epic on Cricket, or is it that I can use any rom and then flash the phone??? I'd like to know this because I bought the phone off contract and would like to use it on Cricket. -thanks :D
[Epic 4G General] synnmox:
Nope, doesn't need to be any specific rom. It can be whichever one, even the stock one.

I finally managed to write AN data parameter for EV-DO, using QPST 2.7 build 355, other version wont write the ev-do parameter. Data is ON now for my network.

This is only because my carrier using simple IP, I believe cricket is using a mobile IP, so the case might be different.
