So, I have seen the change log- I googled what Deodexed means, but what does it mean to us? From what I read it's really only awesome for theming, yet there arent any themes for us? Did I miss something in my googling? (Googled)

Also, how is 2.2B2 different bug wise? Anything changed from B1? Running better? I was trying to hold off for another version (not B1) and am wondering if this is worth flashing. Trust me, I am dieing to flash.. just dont want to be let down lol (from what I have seen other's saying that isnt going to happen though)
[Captivate Android Development] terrigan:
I flashed back to stock and Flashed 2.2 Beta 2 this morning. Loving it! I was running Stock Froyo from the One Click. Good job DG!
[Captivate Android Development] igodey:
Mobile AP, Wifi Tethering, wireless tethering free?

Hi i am using cognition 2.1 is it free to use mobile ap and teether to my computer or at&t will change anything for this? can any one confirm.
[Captivate Android Development] chasesavestheday:
...anyone?
[Captivate Android Development] wyvex:
This is working just fine.

I was on 2.2 Beta 1. Reverted to JF6 with the one click. No Master Clear. Installed 2.2 beta 2 and added the deodexed stock lock screen for Froyo.

Everything is running smooth. Nice work as always DG...
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Do you currently have a data plan with AT&T? MobileAP uses your data to allow internet access, so it will pull from whatever data allowance you have. (I have the 2GB per month/$25, and if I go over that, it will automatically charge me another $10 for 1GB.)

The key is monitoring your data usage, and making sure you don't go over. As it is now, I only use Mobile AP to connect my laptop at work for web browsing and email when there are no WiFi connections available.
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
Not really. What I did was go to the Cog wiki, and download the 2.1 kernel. Make sure you download and install the newest clockwork recovery (you should have update.zip on the root of your sd). Use odin to flash the 2.1 kernel, then when it boots it will go to stock recovery. Reinstall packages to get clockwork recovery, then choose flash any zip and browse to Cog 2.2 beta 2.

It's a little easier than reflashing to stock.

I assume you are asking just out of curiosity; you don't want or need to unzip these prior to putting them on your phone- all that happens automatically when you flash using ROM Manager. Odin is the program that puts the kernel in the right place, and root pack probably has all the stuff that DG included for rooting, sideloading, market fix, debloatification, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] Aphex13:
The latest release of Cognition 2.2 Beta2 is nice. I have had only one small issue with this version. The fonts from the market will not install. They will install from a Titanium Backup, but if you try to buy a new one, it'll download, and just sit there. It won't even attempt to install. It's not a big deal, I just thought I'd throw it out there because it seems like it would be a less common problem.

DG: Thanks for all the hard work on these roms and all that will follow.
[Captivate Android Development] ranjo65:
Is it just me or did this thread shrink?
[Captivate Android Development] phohammer:
Backlight notifications in 2.2 would be awesome!! :)
[Captivate Android Development] igodey:
Thank you very much for your reply, i am using 2gb/25$ a month plan, i taught we have to add teetering plan to be able to tether. thanks for making clear.

but i guess if ATT will remove this option from froyo when officially released.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Use NoLed from the market, it has colored icons that float on the screen, the colors and what displays are fully customizable as well as when and how long they display. Even has options for setting when Noled should go into "sleep" mode so you don't get bugged while sleeping. Very nice program and works with 2.2 beta. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
Okay, so I have searched the thread and forum, but haven't found an answer to this yet, so I figured I would ask in here. Does anyone in here see more than just 304 MB of RAM? I thought FroYo was supposed to utilize or at least let us see all 512... Perhaps RAM Manager can only see what is not dedicated to the OS.

Any insight?
[Captivate Android Development] imb951:
WTF, it did shrink... whoa dude...
[Captivate Android Development] ranjo65:
I remember this being discussed in this thread or maybe the original JI6 thread, anyway, no one is seeing more than the 304 and it was chalked up to being a leaked (not final) build. That's what I remember...I could be wrong, though.
[Captivate Android Development] ranjo65:
By about 64 pages or so.
[Captivate Android Development] chasesavestheday:
nope, also only see 304 :(
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Make sure that you do not have a file or a folder named 'disable-lagfix' inside your /sdcard/voodoo folder.

If you do, delete it and reboot.

In my case, I had that file leftover from a week or so ago when I disabled voodoo, and it was still on my phone. So when I initially installed Beta9, Voodoo did not 'activate' until I deleted that file and rebooted.

Note, when enabling voodoo, expect your phone to sit for a long time on the white at&t screen, as voodoo converts the filesystem and copies your files to it.
[Captivate Android Development] ranova:
then voodoo isnt enabled and that is pretty much a stock score for froyo builds.
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
I know this ROM just came out but has anyone been able to check some stat's like....battery,GPS,Data is all good? I am on B7 Cog right now and love it. No probs.

I get 3G in the 3000kbps in some areas and over 2000kbps in most. Also have OCLF over it and it runs a 1800 Quadrant.....hmmm my lovely cappy!!

DG you are the ****!!!
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
weird.. try a factory reset? settings->privacy->factory data reset

This method was working for those that went from Beta 8 to Beta 8.1 that didn't have any signal..
[Captivate Android Development] PremoPenguins:
It keeps rebooting into CW recovery every time I flash it (coming from 2.1.7). I can restore nandroids and it will boot normally. I guess I'll have to ODIN it.
[Captivate Android Development] sblees:
I'm on beta 7 for the past week... I've noticed in the past few days my phone seems to randomly shut down (it doesn't reboot, it just shuts down)... Has any one else had this issue?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] RapidAdapted:
Thanks. Was able to get it somewhat working by manually installing jpm modem with odin (technique posted around page 498 or so)...still doesn't always connect, but half a loaf is better than none I suppose...
[Captivate Android Development] Chief Beefalo:
A little soon for me to say one way or the other, but i also flashed from B7, and so far things are running really well.

My GPS appears to work the same as it did on B7 which is about the best it has ever worked on my cappy.

Battery is EXCELLENT! After finishing my odin flash, my battery was full. I unplugged 4 hours ago, and i have sent maybe 6 text messages, received 4 emails, done about 4 minutes of GPS testing, had a 4-5 minute phone convo, read some twitter updates, and my battery is at 87%.

Voodoo will not yield the same Quadrant scores as OCLF will (i am getting around 1470), but i can tell a noticeable difference in opening/closing applications, as well as how fast it scans my sd cards after i unplug it from the comp. IMHO, it produces an overall better OS than B7 with OCLF did for me, but some people have stated that Voodoo doesn't provide the same results as OCLF does for programs such as touchdown.

That is my brief (kinda) synapses.
[Captivate Android Development] moosefist:
Yeah, ODIN will fix it. The CWN version of BETA 9 isn't flashing the kernel according to DG. Froyo will do that if you are running the 2.1.7 eclair kernel
[Captivate Android Development] born_fisherman:
I see.. Still weird! I would still try flashing through ODIN again (b9) then doing a factory reset (also try removing sim card when flashing)
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
cant say I have.....I have been on b7 since it came out. saw all the horrible threads about 8 and didnt flash.

Only little prob. is Gmail wont exit out when I hit back now it just continues through emails...i have to hit home button....Just started ....wierd. Unless it's new to gmail
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Thanks Chief....that was very very helpful and i do appriciate your fast response!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Beiruty:
Does B9 have all share, all ATT software removed?
[Captivate Android Development] bradasmith:
When restoring after flashing a new ROM I have found some wonky behaviour.

After a fresh flash, I install TiBU from Recovery - install from ZIP.

THen once booted, I install WiFi and Bluetooth and SMS/MMS/APN (I am on Rogers in Canada and have to enter my APN, sometimes I use APN Backup and Restore to do this).

Once those items are restored, I touch nothing else and then reboot. Then I go through and set my sound/display/time/location and account settings manually.

I have found that if I change any settings before I use TiBu things act really funny, like wifi not locking in, FC on apps etc.

Once all settings are set, I reboot again, then use TiBU to restore the apps in two stages, those that need DATA (like K9, EBay ) that require settings so that I don't have to reset anything. Then I restore any apps that I don't really care about settings like games or util programs ReCalc, GPS etc.

Chrome to Phone has to be added without DATA because you have to Run it and do the 'ALLOW' thing for it to work.
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Yes

Posted from my Captivate
[Captivate Android Development] crupp:
Yes. A few of us are trying to find the d'oxed files so we can add back the ones we want
[Captivate Android Development] RapidAdapted:
just flashed 9 via odin again (no sim), followed by factory reset. 3g seems to be working for now, but battery drain is worse than ever...can almost watch it drain. Really weird...

thinking I'd like to try b7...does anyone know where I can get a copy?

EDIT: so...3g works...up to and until I try to use the market...after that, it will not work again until I flash, no matter what I do...
[Captivate Android Development] Matrioux:
Touchdown just doesn't seem to be working well with Voodoo, I tried disabling voodoo and installing OCLF, but on reboot it just sits at the white AT&T screen. Is there something in this kernal that is making OCLF not work even when voodoo is disabled?

Guess I'm heading back to 8.1.

DG - you do awesome work, this is simply a potential bug notification, not to be construed as any sort of complaint. I'm going to miss the new boot screen and wallpaper.
[Captivate Android Development] rockosifraldi:
Lock Screen

Hi,

What was the lock screen on 2.3 Beta 5, is there a way I can get it.

DG, are you planning to put in any of the new releases.

Thanks

Rocko
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes I use Rom manager to flash. Currently on 8.1. If things ever get out of hand my parents have a PC. But I am 31 and feel odd going to my parents house to play with my phone

Captivate

Cog 2.2
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
The stock lock screen is available out there, compatable with Cog8.1 and up, but I like the baked in download and recovery reboot options, I don't want to lose them. here's hoping that DG will put the stock lock screen back into Cog.
[Captivate Android Development] cgriffin:
Did you install a different battery indicator, framework-res.apk?
[Captivate Android Development] jfiveeight:
So I take it i'm not supposed to see jetaek.lee kernel? Voodoo folder created, cogbeta9 is the build number, but i'm not getting the kernel, flashed from b7 via odin.
[Captivate Android Development] kirtley7:
Does anyone else have a problem replying to a email. I have exchange setup on my phone but cannot reply.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] kiltedthrower:
Okay. Can someone repost the directions on getting this on my Captivate once Odin is downloaded on my PC? I've only used the clockwork mod and rom manager to flash before.
[Captivate Android Development] Chief Beefalo:
Try using the "quote" feature if you are asking someone in particular..

If it is a general question, my answer would be Yes, i installed the color icon and circle batt modd found here without issues.
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
kernel version: 2.6.32.9

jetaeak.lee@sept-11 #1

thats what mine shows and voodoo is confirmed working and have no problems.
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
The thing that has bugged me since day 1 of Cognition:

When will DG fix the typo on post 1? "Check out out here!" Come on, Valerie. :D
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
The CWN version flashed the kernel on my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Confirmed, Touchdown is slight faster than Beta6 without OCLF, but it is still fairly slow. I confirmed Voodoo is installed and the FS for data is ext4. The only thing I can think of is ext4 has overhead the OCLF (ext2) does not. ext2 is faster, since there is no journaling, but that makes it a very dangerous fs to use. DG, any pointers of things to try to increase Touchdown performance? OCLF is not ideal, but Touchdown is barely usable with Beta 9/Voodoo.

Updated but market won't work

I just updated my Captivate from Cognition 2.2 Beta 8 to beta 9.

First it kinda froze on the startup (like 20 min on initial boot). I took the battery off and restarted. It worked.

But know I am trying to back up using titatium but the whole market will not download any apps.

Help please?
[Captivate Android Development] Matrioux:
Voodoo for 2.1 was also ext4, and ran touchdown fine. That's what has me baffled. Voodoo was actually my favorite lag fix for 2.1. There has to be something in this implementation, either voodoo 2.2 overall or DG's kernel that is causing an issue. I have not seen touchdown issues in the main voodoo 2.2 threads, but I have not been reading them post for post so I might have missed something.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Go to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=799511

It is a stock lock screen that includes the baked in reboot/recovery/download.

The first download (Cog b8.1) is the one you want, it works perfect on Cog beta9. Its just a swap out of '/system/framework/android.policy.jar'
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
My update so far on 2.2 Beta 9. In 3.5 hrs with very minimal use, I have lost 5% battery. GPS seems as good as ever although I do not think any ROM has really impacted my GPS results since GPS mods have stopped being included. Outside, I locked 8 sats in a very short time.

I am not seeing any issues so far, its snappy. Solid performance so far. I used ODIN to update after flashing back to stock and then doing a master clear.

Also, I saw a reference to Launcher Pro some pages back. I loaded it clean from the market and it is doing great, used Home Switcher to change. I did use TB to put my apps and settings back but never back up anything else, no system data restore.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
You also do not want to restore any that have 2.1 update1 in the name.

You can search for posts in this thread with my moniker and I have listed some of the files that will have that name. Most are Google ones, but not all.
[Captivate Android Development] thecellx:
Same happens to me. I did not notice any change on kernel version. At least on the version phone is reporting.
[Captivate Android Development] ranova:
using OCLF on beta 5, I have had my phone corrupt touchdown data at least 3 times now.
[Captivate Android Development] yokozuna82:
Beta9 for me works excellent ...there is still one major issue that I have notice since beta 6 and that is the text , when text messaging to person A and receiving a text from person B pulling down the notification bar and selecting person B's text, well texting person B the message gets sent to person A .....this can be a very big problem ....is there a solution for this?
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Well known bug and the solution is not to use the notification pull down to switch text....
[Captivate Android Development] polo1000rr:
I had similar issues with the stock messaging app. I switched to handcent from the market and it fixed me right up.
[Captivate Android Development] joedon3:
I have a formatting issue with my signature, but I am able to reply through my exchange acct.
[Captivate Android Development] kiltedthrower:
How many of y'all are using the traditional load it onto the computer and copy and paste the zip file onto the SD card and having success without issues?
[Captivate Android Development] s2h2golf:
I just posted this on the development page:

I found that simply by selecting what groups I want displayed in the contact list fixed all the problems I had [with wrong contacts].

Contacts > Menu > More > Display Options > Under choose contacts to display, select the dropdown you want to see. I only use Google contacts, so I selected "All other contacts" and "Starred in Android contacts" under Google.

Like I said, this fixed everything with wrong contacts being displayed when I tried to call or text the person.
[Captivate Android Development] techjeep:
Also having issue....

I also find the Timer that is under the base Clock app no longer sounds an alarm. It worked in Beta6, but no longer in 8.1 or 9. It's not a HUGE thing, since I can download an alternative, but I did almost burn dinner last night :p .

After searching beta6 files I've found it is Noises1.ogg that is the sound file it used to play, but I have put this file in both /system/etc/media/audio/alarms and /ringtones (it is in ringtones in beta6) and still nothing.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
You should not have pulled the battery on the first boot - voodoo was busy creating and formatting ext4 data partition during the first boot and it takes a while.

the second time you boot the phone may be a little slow too - not as long as the first boot - then after that you should start seeing more normal boot times.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Correct

You cannot change that without source, and we don't have source.

Thanks for confirming, I have confirmed this myself as well.

Thanks! Reefermattness made it :)

Same servers don't like the new 2.2 email client... nothing I can do about it. Lower your insane email server security settings :P

Ditto, that is normal

Valerie is my wife, I will fix that typo some day...

Touchdown from what I can tell is NOT optimized for 2.2/JIT.

Odd, that is indeed an issue, I will look into it!
[Captivate Android Development] bencaptivate:
OK, so i dont really feel like reading through 50 new pages of posts to maybe find an answer to my question, and i didnt see it anywhere on DGs site or the wiki, but is 2.2beta 9 odin supposed to only have a pit and a pda file and no phone or csc? thanks in advance!
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
Ya. pit and pda all you need.
[Captivate Android Development] snieves:
Yup, just flash that and you'll be fine
[Captivate Android Development] NiXXeD:
The timer sound works for me, I use it all the time. I'm on 8.1 currently with atinm's kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] wonder186:
That is correct. There is only a PIT and PDA file to ODIN.
[Captivate Android Development] Mechapanda:
correct ben. it only has pit and pda, just as 8 had only pit and pda, i'm not sure if 7 even had it
[Captivate Android Development] bencaptivate:
thanks guys!
[Captivate Android Development] bencaptivate:
oh, well i was so happy with b6 that ive been on it since then, but i figured it was time for an upgrade now that we have a custom kernel and voodoo
[Captivate Android Development] Beiruty:
For those who are brave enough to flash B9.

Thanks. Pretty newb to flashing and my captivate. I just went and clear everthing and reran tibu with just the apps and app data and NO more issues in the last hour or more. This thing is kicking arse. I now have the screen that DG set up and I like it.

I flashed 8.1 and the timer sound does not work for me at all.

It actually made me late since I decided to take a 15 min snooze and the timer never made a sound. :confused:
[Captivate Android Development] kwhee07:
is there any support for wpa2 enterprise wifi? My university uses this and I cannot get it working. I am told it was supported in 2.1, but is not in 2.2? that doesnt make any sense to me.

any insight would be helpful
[Captivate Android Development] xtremeskier:
Just flashed Beta 9 from Beta 6. Odin to stock then master clear and Odin to Beta 9. Everything went smoothly.

Issues...

-No timer sound. No biggie to me. I only use it to time my kids time out. LOL.

-Email was a bit different to setup. Had to use the server IP instead of just servername.com

Everything else is working fine at this point.

I will report back if anything unusual comes up.
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
My university has this as well - I've had no issues connecting. On beta 8.1 now
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Yup, trust me, I want ext3/4 for the file system. ext2 does no journaling. Any random power down can corrupt data.
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
I also have no sound on the timer in beta 9

FYI - only mod I have installed on top of beta 9 is android stock lock screen.
[Captivate Android Development] cgriffin:
Ha. What a dumb mistake. How are they gonna know I'm asking a question based on what they wrote, thanks
[Captivate Android Development] iceman718:
Installed beta 9 via odin from beta 6 with full battery. Everything works fine except I'm getting some mad battery drain...like 10% an hour or more. I normally get a good 18 hours, and after the flash its looking like it'll be about half that.

Not sure what went wrong, but I see a few others have said the same thing, while others are reporting awesome battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] leets4uc3:
i just flashed beta9 twice! what is the kernel supposed to be called? CogKernal or jetaek.lee?
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
okay...I have been trying to master clear using ODIN but its not working for me. what should i exactly do? first flash stock JH7 and then master clear or first master clear and then stock and then Cog 2.2 beta 9 ODIN.

Also what if I directly go to Beta 9 from Beta 8.1 using CWM ? Are there any advantages of master clearing first before flashing new ROM? As I used CWM for all previous ROMS and directly flashed without master clearing. Also I guess master clear will wipe out all data on sdcard so I should back up the Tibu backup folder on PC or it will remain on sdcard?

Anu help will be much appreciated...Thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] ancostel:
Anybody got any FC's with gmaps? Uninstalling and installing again didn't fix it...ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] ancostel:
Jetaek.lee still...DG said the name cant be changed w/o the source...
[Captivate Android Development] xtremeskier:
Just tried installing the Circle Battery Mod by renaming to update.zip entered recovery and selected reinstall packages.

Ended up in a continuous reboot cycle. Flashing back to stock and then to Beta 9 again.

Any ideas why circle battery mod would cause this?
