Im sorry. I wasnt able to read all 500+ pages in only a 12 hours shift. Ill try to do better next time and not ask questions on a board, that was founded to spread knowledge.

Any noobs reading this, please do not ask about quadrant scores. You will upset the Leets.

I was using Beta6 for since it came out, and suddenly a few days ago, the GPS just stop working...well it never worked very well, but i was able to get some locks after all. And as I was saying, the GPS suddenly stopped working...no locks at all.

ALso problems when downloading apps from market.

Now I'm restoring my apps with Tibu after installing Beta8.1 : D

We'll see how it goes!

HSUPA - alternatives to enable

Is anyone aware of a kernel and modem pair that enables HSUPA on Cog v2.2Beta<x> other than one based on X's reorient kernel?

The reorient kernel appears to cause a pole reversal in the Captivate's magnetic compass when the Captivate is held upright (i.e. Google Skymap), North becomes South. When the Captivate is flat, the magnetic compass is fine (Yes, this happens after calibrating the compass).

I'd love to have HSUPA back, but so far all of the options I am finding in my searches all require the reorient kernel. I do love the reorient kernel, but need my compass working in all orientations.

Appreciate all ideas!

anybody wanna upload a mirror? download is being slow for 8.1:D:D
[Captivate Android Development] old Tech:
You do realize you can download it from the market, right?
[Captivate Android Development] vizographic:
That was my first action to attempt, but I was unable to access the market. Google accounts issue

I'm preparing to run update zip from my "green recovery screen" clearly I'm andronoob here :\
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
You can use JG8 kernel with 8.0 for HSUPA....8.1 is non-HSUPA.

Downgrade to upgrade

Hi, just a quick question, if I decide to downgrade thru odin and upgrade back to beta 8.1 would I need to root the eclair version first? Thx in advance, and apologies in advance if I missed a thread on all the previous lengthy posting about my inquiry. :o
[Captivate Android Development] pagandoc:
So i dloaded the odin.zip but there is no phone.tar or csc.tar in the zip? there an alternate dload or?
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Thanks, but the reason 8.0 supports HSUPA and 8.1 does not is because 8.0 has the reorient kernel, and 8.1 has the stock kernel. That means that 8.0 is a pairing of JG8 and reorient. It is reorient that is causing the compass problem.

The JG8 modem (its a modem, not a kernel) does not work with the stock kernel (no voice).

I'm asking for pairings that do not require the reorient kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] SWINGR:
Unless we are talking about 2 differnt things, all you need is the PIT and the PDA. Phone and CSwhatever are blank.

Lovin Cog 8.1 beta! Sent ya a 12 pack!
[Captivate Android Development] jonttu:
mine gets stuck on dbdata.rfs :/

EDIT: DOH I forgot, pagandoc, try switching the usb port.
[Captivate Android Development] pagandoc:
well ended up just master clearing and going to stock since i looked in my internal sd and had like all 6 verions of cog 2.2 in there lol. had to clear out the clutter anyway
[Captivate Android Development] Shlomihorv:
Great!!!!

Wow what a good job you did with the last one 2.2 BETA 8.1

thanks man!
[Captivate Android Development] momulah:
Hey I am unfortunate as to haveing installed Cog 2.2 beta 2 I athink. I am also one the the ones who cannot do the 3 button combo. I am also one of the ones having the usb not connecting device. Tried it all kies,32,64 installs, removing all, and reinstalling. Nothing I have the worst luck. Now is there a way to flash to another beta as the clockwork recovery doesnt work with this beta. I may be mistaken on the build # but Clockwork does not work for sure. Any ideas on getting me updated to 8.1 beta?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Download rom manager from the market

Problem solved

Captivate

Cog 2.16
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
Just try again. You get this is you do a weird sequence - plug in the phone after you are in download mode.

Odin starts then hangs
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
Nope battery life is decent. Need to run 8.1 though.

With my phone using Cognition, because it just runs better.
[Captivate Android Development] SkitchBeatz:
Black Screen

I've got a problem on my brother's Captivate. Don't know what he did but on his boot sequence he hits a black screen. He sees the AT&T logo and the animated galaxy s logo but after that its all black screen. The capacitive buttons light up and react when touched but nothing on the screen. I can see he has a voodoo folder when in clockwork mod recovery on his internal SD so I'm thinking he has cog 2.1.4.

I tried to mount the sd through CWM but nothing pops up in my computer. His external SD doesn't show up in CWM either. I'm thinking disabling voodoo would probably fix this problem but im not sure how to get a file into the voodoo folder in his internal sd.

any thoughts?
[Captivate Android Development] Aphex13:
Sounds like he deleted his launcher... Odin should get him back.
[Captivate Android Development] ranjo65:
It's an issue with the leaked Froyo...haptic feedback is broken on the Android Keyboard.
[Captivate Android Development] pagandoc:
is boot taking forever for anyone else? The SD media scan takes a long time to.
[Captivate Android Development] jojomoulder:
I posted yesterday about flashing 8.1. I said I would report any problems that I run into. I'm glad to say that as for now I have nothing to report. Everything seems to work just fine.

For the guy with the non vibrating keys on his keyboard. Mine works fine
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Yes, taking quite a long time for me.
[Captivate Android Development] cchant:
much longer than on previous versions
[Captivate Android Development] chvybeatsford:
The first scan for me takes a lil while but after that seems faster than previous beta ....I also only have only a 2 gig external card may be why its faster
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
That wasn't me but the Android Keyboard does not work with haptic feedback. You must be using the Samsung Keyboard. Settings > Locale and Text.
[Captivate Android Development] SkitchBeatz:
thanks. I ODIN'd his phone back to stock and gave him beta 8.1. seems like it fixed it.
[Captivate Android Development] Eibon:
Couple of questions about the 2.1.6 cognition with HSUPA. I recently installed it, and it seems to have installed correctly, but is there a way to confirm that HSUPA was added correctly?

Also my battery life seems kinda strange (I removed the sim card while installing), how do I perform a battery recalibration? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Download Speedtest from the market and see what kind of download and upload speeds you are getting.

As far as the battery, I would:

Charge your phone while it's on to 100%

Turn it off and charge to 100%

Turn it on and let it fully boot and turn it off again, charging to 100%

Then, when you unplug it, put it into recovery mode first, use CWR (the green recovery) to 'wipe battery stats' in it's advanced menu.

Then use your phone completely until it won't turn on, trying not to connect it via USB or wall charger.

When charging it up after that for the first time, try and leave it off and charge it to 100%, but let it sit for a few hours past 100%, and then use it normally. It's best to do this when your sleeping if you don't need your phone during that time. Another option is to buy the 2x battery+charger from eBay. Works great to always have a full battery.

You sometimes have to let it fully drain and recharge before the battery 'learns' limitations.
[Captivate Android Development] golemaw:
Just flashed Beta8.1 (via RM) from 2.1.5 voodoo.

After using it a few hours, I decided to reboot it in the morning. After the logo screens, I would constant fc of com.android.phone. It looks like there was an issue with connecting to the 3g network. Works fine in flight mode, but once I turn flight mode off, the fcing comes back.

I just reflashed Beta8.1 and works fine so far...
[Captivate Android Development] tegots:
after installing the 8.1 all my stock live wallpapers got screwed up... is this normal ?! any way to fix it ?

thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] jojomoulder:
I use swype. But it still works either way. Still no problems with 8.1. Battery life is good. Went all day with normal use (texting, calls, reading xda, android central.)
[Captivate Android Development] ryanjg11:
Just ODIN master cleared and put on 8.1. Still having random shutdowns when it's in screenlock mode. This time, I made sure not to install Launcher Pro, but I don't really have any other apps installed. Just reloaded Angry Birds from TB, but that's it.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
Just got done flashing for the first time gentlemen!! I am sooooo happy, you don't even understand. For the last week I have read this whole thread, the Odin One Click JF6 thread, the ADB for dummies thread, and many other various threads similar to the ones I mentioned. So far so good!! I did a clean ass flash by Odin'ing back to stock then I used the master clear option, then I rerooted my device and installed Rom Manager. After reading this whole thread, it seemed to me like Beta 7 was having the most stability, the least issues, and it was getting a lot of positive feedback. So this is what I decided to flash. I am so impressed with this ROM. Froyo JI6 build that comes rooted and has Rom Manager installed!! No bloatware or useless apps! Extremely snappy compared to Eclair, I can compare the speed of this ROM to Eclair with OCLF easily, and I haven't even applied a lag fix. Battery seems to be great too, and I did not reset my batterystats file either. Wifi and data are both working perfectly!! (I didn't even backup my apps, I reinstalled all of them through the market using data and wifi, thats how I know they work are working fine.) GPS seems to be working fine, I got a pretty quick lock just running the "navigation" app and typing in a destination because I am not quite sure how to tests how many satellites and what not. Overall, this ROM is great and I will be sending some beer money to DG here in the near future!!

Anyways, the jist of this whole post is to show all the noobs/beginners out there that this can be done if you research the right threads. I had no previous experience with android before gettin my cappy and just from gathering information from XDA's forums I was able to flash successly with no issues whatsoever! Big thanks to DG and all the leets for putting up with us noobs and our noob questions every once in awhile!!
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Just thought I would let you guys know my custom kernel is just about ready, just got Voodoo working, bootanimation.zip is now supported and a few other tweaks that will be in the change log!
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
I can't wait......:D:D:D Any chance on an updated AOSP version...
[Captivate Android Development] thehavock18:
Nice
[Captivate Android Development] evanstapler:
What exactly is voodoo? A lot of people have been saying they're waiting for voodoo... Will I be able to get voodoo if I have 8.1 now?
[Captivate Android Development] ranjo65:
Yeah, haptic feedback works for Swype and the Samsung keyboard but not the stock Android keyboard, which is what the original question seemed to be pertaining to.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
So does this mean I'll be flashing again tonight? ;) I was needing to since it's been over 12 hours since I have. Lol
[Captivate Android Development] silverslotcar:
Confirmation number: 70T310912D558840G

[Captivate Android Development] puros_bran:
LOL... I just tried ANOTHER I-9000 Rom FAIL! Was about to flash back to Cog for the upteenthirtyeleventh time when I noticed the Number 9 hint..

Patiently waiting. and why i keep trying to go elsewhere is beyond me, maybe I'm demented.
[Captivate Android Development] wilsongis:
I keep doing the same thing. I9000 disappoints every time I switch towers and lose signal.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Awesome! That means I'll need to flash though. Man, b7 has been working great for awhile now. Decisions, decisions....it's so hard to resist the urge. :D
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
No, I'm Demented. ;) Patiently waiting as well.
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Might it also support HSUPA with an appropriate modem?
[Captivate Android Development] saoirse_go_deo:
I'm on beta 7 myself. Is this to say DG is integrating the Voodoo lagfix with Cognition 2.2? If so, will we be able to use Clockwork to flash directly from beta 7 to whatever this beta will be? (9, I suppose)

I was under the impression that for the 2.1 versions, you needed to apply the lagfix separately so that it would convert your filesystem from RFS to ext4.
[Captivate Android Development] aonavy:
you think we can get HSUPA woring with this?
[Captivate Android Development] hansmrtn:
Will you be posting tonight? Cause I was gonna flash 8.1 but I need to know. Thanks!:D
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
I am having a issue but I can not find it in the searh. I seached by reboot but did not come up with my issue.

I downloaded the Odin version. I got my drivers installed. My phone shows up correct in Windows and shows conected in Odin. I get my phone in dowload mode. Odin still sees my phone. I click start. Then Odin will reboot my phone before it installs the new firware. If there a setting in Odin I am missing? The phone just goes right back to how it was with out anything being installed.

I am not sure if this is a issue with oden and windows 7 or a setting that I am missing.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] rickzotz:
I suppose it's time to post my thanks to DG for the great work on Cognition. Donation sent. :)

Except for sluggishness with IMAP in the e-mail client when compared to 2.1 stock, 2.2Beta8.1 has been a joy to use in all the ways others have posted. Touchscrolling does not exhibit that initial jump to catch up with your finger, among so many other improvements. Much of this may be attributed to Froyo, but I have to credit DG and other contributors for putting it together.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
highly doubt it. Seems like the only two modems that support hsupa, dont support the 850 mhz band. Basically, you will get terrible reception depending on where you live. So, the only time I see an appropriate modem for our captivates, is when the bell vibrant gets the froyo update, cuz it uses the same bands as at&t, and it will have hsupa support.

I hate waiting tho ><
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Are you using a Odin One Click, or regular Odin? If it's regular Odin you need to set the Pit, PDA, PHONE, and CSC files so Odin can flash anything. Odin is probably just doing it's job right, but with nothing in those spaces, there's nothing to put on your phone.

If it is Odin One Click, then I'm not sure what the problem is.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Your not doing it quite right...leave your phone disconnected from your computer...Open Odin...Put phone in download mode and then connect it to your computer..Once Odin see it then press start..
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Not so in my experience. The JPM modem works great on HSUPA, and I've been using JPM on 850 GSM and WCDMA, and 1900 WCDMA (I don't have 1900 GSM near me to test, but it probably works as well).

In my city, the ONLY service available to me is GSM 850, and it works excellent on the JPM modem. And as I travel around, my phone is switching from tower to tower, band to band, without problem, without degradation, and without dropping calls or data.

The problem is that JPM only works, to the best of my experiments, on the reorient kernel. And the reorient kernel has an inversion problem with the magnetic compass when the phone is held upright (as in Google Skymap usage).

So I am desperately looking for a Froyo kernel other than reorient that works with HSUPA. Or for the reorient kernel to find a fix for the compass problem.

But, again, JPM definatly works on 850!
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
Voodoo is a lagfix that changes the proprietary file system to a faster file system rf4 I think.

Pretty much it fixes the I/O issues due to Samsung screwing things up.

And um I doubt you would be able to kernal swap it and have to flash back to stock first.

With my phone using Cognition, because it just runs better.
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
I tried that I am still having the same issue. This is the log from Odin.

<ID:0/006> Added!!

<ID:0/006> Odin v.3 engine (ID:6)..

<ID:0/006> File analysis..

<ID:0/006> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/006> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/006> Removed!!

Just before it goes to Removed the phone reboots. The phone is in download mode.
[Captivate Android Development] opcow:
That looks like what it's supposed to do. (Edit: maybe not. can't remember what info is logged in the text box. Maybe it's prematurely rebooting.) Is it coming back up in recovery mode after that? Maybe the firmware you're flashing is bad.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
oops, i had a typo, JPM modem doesnt work for ppl that live in an area with 1900 WCDMA. I checked what band i am using, and it says 1900, and guess what? my reception sucks. So yep, terrible reception for ppl who live in an area with 1900.

However, when i went out with my family, i got fantastic reception, and i would assume that area is GSM 850. So basically, for the JPM Modem...

Live in area with lots of GSM 850 bands -> Good! :D

" " " " " " WCDMA 1900 bands -> Bad -_-

And I'm pretty sure it isnt working with the 1900 bands, because I dont think its my user error. I have flashed back to stock and flashed back to reoriented kernel with the JPM modem, multiple time, with couple of master clears in the process, so i am 99.99999% positive, that JPM modem has problems with the WCDMA 1900 band.

So basically, for a HSUPA modem that is FULLY FUNCTIONAL for EVERYONE in the at&t network, we will have to wait for the bell galaxy s to get updated to froyo and take the modem from it.
[Captivate Android Development] killeen1980:
Please HELP,

After flashing 8.1 i can't seem to download anything from market. I try to download pandora but it doesn't work. There was a green progress bar from the pull down menu but it doesn't move..... Is this fixable...:confused:
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
Figures! The one band I could not test in!

Well, I await the day that we get a bell froyo modem, AND a kernel that supports it AND supports HSUPA.

In the mean time, and I know this appears selfish, but as I'm in a predominately 850 area, I'd settle for a non reorient kernel that supports the JPM and HSUPA, or a patched reorient that fixes the compass inversion.
[Captivate Android Development] evanstapler:
How easy will it be to go from 8.1 to 9? Will I be able to do so without erasing all my apps and data; can I restore them with titanium backup?
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
It is re-booting back to the att screen and rebooting to the phone like normaly turning on the phone. De-bugging is turned on.
[Captivate Android Development] airbillion:
I agree with this assessment. I get horrible reception with jpm modem and I only have 1900mhz signal where I live. It looks like we will have to wait for the bell modem to use hsupa.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
yep. waiting is always the worst part :(

Honestly, I once in a blue moon upload stuff, so thats not a must have.

To me the must-have for the froyo roms are:

1. Voodoo lagfix, and that has been achieved

2. Fix browser lag and memory leak, compared to eclair, when i go to java heavy or photo heavy pages, the scrolling has many hitches and it lags terribly

I just really hope the official froyo comes out soon and it fixes the browser lag/leak.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
they are both froyo, so i am pretty sure that backup/restoring with TiBu will work perfectly :]
[Captivate Android Development] KewlRobD:
Goto Settings>Applications>Manage applications>Menu>Filter>All

Now you goto the Market on the list of applications and then Clear cache.
[Captivate Android Development] Yggdrasil777:
Man... I was JUST about to start flashing 8.1, when I saw that there's a new version coming up soon (hopefully within the next hour)!!!

I'm still on 5.5, and just now finished installing the SDK and Eclipse and Kies and the drivers on the "new" Windows 7 install.
[Captivate Android Development] ntdb:
Well I just took the leap and flashed 8.1, the first custom ROM to meet my phone.

My battery life is terrible, GPS works great, 3-button does not seem to be fixed (unless I'm just plain doing it wrong), and now android.phone is constantly FCing after a reboot. I also forgot to backup my SMS aside from my ROM Manager backup so I suppose I'll flash back and try beta 9 when it drops.
[Captivate Android Development] mastergflash:
Deodexed stock apps

I really took a liking to daily briefing. I know that on odexed roms, i was able to take the infoalarm.apk and odex and just drop it in the system/app folder to get it back since dg removes it. My question is, how do i restored this on a deodexed rom? I would assume it would need to be deodexed and repacked into the apk, but does anyone know:

1. If there is anywhere I can aquire deodexed stock apps/

or

2. The best solution for deodexing the files I have myself.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
In regards to battery life, be sure to flash from 100% charge or be sure to charge to 100% and clear your battery stats, run it to dead and go from there. Its just easier to flash from 100%. If you did that, not sure what to tell ya but good luck with 2.2beta9.
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
Someone on this thread already posted the samsung deodexed apks, I used them for a while. They are here. PM me if you can't find them
[Captivate Android Development] ntdb:
This is my issue as well. I'm about to reflash as golemaw did but I'm curious, could this be caused by restoring something through TiBu that shouldn't be? I know problems arise when certain items are restored. I've seen a list of things to avoid but I can't seem to find it now.

But waiting for 9 is getting me through this movie so I don't mind waiting and chatting it up here. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] Jirv311:
If you backed up System Apps (ie: Phone) through TiBu then I'm guessing when restoring through TiBu, it restores the original com.android.phone. Just a guess though as I'm still fairly new here.
