I searched for it but I didn't find anything for the captivate.

I also look through the last 100 or so pages but i did not see anything about returning the notification back to stock
[Captivate Android Development] Shival:
No sound in 2.4.1 same as 2.4. Volume sliders are up. Any media will not make noise, no notifications sounds or anything. Serious issue.

The people who need their phone's GPS to be functional, SHOULD be warned to stay away from this ROM. Stop trying to silence the people reporting issues, that's what this forum is for. Yes, I read this thread to learn how to make changes to my Captivate, but I also read to find whether the issues are too disruptive for me to chance.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I have read through this whole thread more than once and the only thing that is consistent is that GPS is not consistent. The ROMS have nothing to do with it unless Samsung changed something in their leaked releases which again I have seen little evidence of. Some are saying its better some say its worse. DG is not mentioning GPS at all in his change logs. My phone has ALWAYS achieved a lock since factory....sometimes fast sometimes not so fast. Not as good as my Garmin or car NAV system.

I am convinced There are no definitive conclusions to be drawn by Cogs Roms and the users regarding GPS. Different people are getting different results with each ROM.

Users of these ROMs should know they don't "fix" the GPS issue. Likely because no one really knows what exactly is wrong. SW or hardware or a combination.

I don't think someone should not load a ROM because someone else says their GPS sucks with it....Nor do think they should load a ROM because someone else says GPS is better. they should load it and see for themselves how THEIR device reacts. There is no universal opinion that nthis ROM is bad for GPS from what I have read.

The only thing one can glean from this thread is GPS is not consistent..You say yours doesn't work....Others and myself says it does work the same as it always has.

BTW I don't believe my device is broken. It is like every other Captivate. Locks quickly sometimes and other times takes a minute or three......That's not "broke" to me. My N97 did the same. The one's that never locked are broke..and no COG ROM will fix that

thank you for this post, i haven't been at liberty to post anything the last couple of days but i've noticed more and more gps "rant" posts, please remember this is a thread for bugs/issues and feedback on cognition....the issues with GPS have been known since day 1, if you have an issue with it you are in the wrong thread

Please be more specific as to what is happening when you try to update

[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I think the version you are on does not have 2e recovery which means you can not use clockwork recovery/rom manager to flash.

You will have to use Odin to go back to stock 2.1 , root your phone, then use rom manager to flash 2.41.

Or just stick with what you are using

Captivate

Cog 2.4
[Captivate Android Development] kaczu:
We are in agreement about the inconsistency of GPS. However, that's not the only thing that's inconsistent. How about battery life? Talks of battery life are all over the map. However, we still report back with issues with it.

How about mail.apk compatibility with Exchange? Those are inconsistent as well. Yet we report on those. I've been replacing the mail app up until 2.4. 2.4 does seem to work correctly with exchange however if a little slow.

How about the effectiveness of lagfixes? Those go on for pages and pages. Yet we will still report on those.

How about three-button entrance into recovery? That's not consistent either. Some /Most of us can do it, while others cannot. Yet we still report on it.

What I'm trying to get through here is that all issues with the ROMs that get released should be commented upon. Talking about inconsistencies as a reason to no longer accept info or act on an issue is crazy to me because what would be the point of this thread, or working with devs at all? Is our goal here just to download ROMS and just not say anything of the features we deem too broken to care about? I hope not.

Well exactly. I don't think software alone will "fix" it to a point where it's better than other phones.

I'm not saying that anyone should do or not do anything. I'm saying that at a minimum all issues should at least be tracked, and if possible acted upon ... that's all. I'm likely not going to comment on it further since there are other ROM's that are available within COG and outside of it. There are other issues to track and test so I don't want to inundate the thread about one issue solely.
[Captivate Android Development] iakovl:
any answer on the BIDI RTL issue?

could this be added in future Cog release?
[Captivate Android Development] prim8:
Discuss it in a GPS thread somewhere then.

If DG wants to pursue fixing the GPS or try to add some of the methods you guys think work over in the GPS thread he can go over there and look.

As it is you guys are cluttering up this thread which is not about the GPS.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
I agree...mentioning if it I better or worse on a particular rom is useful but dg said long ago that he is not c concerned with implementing gps mods until a "real" fix is found....if that day ever comes. There are probably 100 pages in this thread now on gps.
[Captivate Android Development] tkienzle:
Ok i did NOT disable lagfix what can go wrong because everything looks ok.

I'm a dumb ass so don't ask why i didn't i just got all flash happy and did it ok...:rolleyes:

For those looking for a working stock lock screen, the one in this thread (jar file) is working with 2.4.1.

xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=799511&page=33

On a side note, latest rom is working a little better than 2.4 for me. Had the adventure of thinking I had a brick, but these phones seem nigh un-brickable (ymmv), though they do have the secret wait two times, then release a button, then howl at the moon while turning to the left and coughing. But it works.

Odd issue when trying to send a calendar event through messaging... that fails with no reason why. Just fails at the SMS send. I have never done that before on this phone, so I don't know if it ever worked :).

Nice work guys.
[Captivate Android Development] lospulpo:
Hey what's the easiest way to get hsupa working on cog 2.4.1. I haven't been able to find a real definitive answer. Now that we're on a vibrant rom does that change anything?
[Captivate Android Development] wjcaptivate:
This is probably a noob question but I really would like to know the easiest step by step to accomplish this. I went from stock with odin to the leak froyo and then odin to Cog2.2b9.1.3 So far I have only down the ODIN which I have been extremely lucky with to be able to do it on one try. The main question here is I would like to experience the HSUPA speed I have been reading about. What's the easiest way to do that? I do not want to overclock my processor or change any voltage settings like in the other ROM thread. Thanks ahead for the info.
[Captivate Android Development] kaczu:
But that's not what some people are saying. They are saying we don't care about it at all. We don't want to hear about any difference whatsoever... and that's not cool.

I understand that he's not concerned with it. ... however there's about 100 pages on getting into recovery and removing lagfixs before flashing... let's not resort to hyperbole.

Am I the only one who's Gmail notifications aren't working? Is this a ROzm issue, or Gmail?
[Captivate Android Development] kaczu:
I was seeing a problem with email notifications in general. Usually the notification sound would fire, but the icon wouldn't display that an email had arrived.
[Captivate Android Development] kaczu:
Check the change log. ROMS with HSUPA are listed.
[Captivate Android Development] Schmarvin:
Works well, but a few things I'd like to put here.

First, the system runs fine, but when running two or more apps at a time, the system tends to lock up a little. The GPS could use a little tweaking as it doesn't work well, even with full 3G signal. Also, GPS doesn't work well with both full 3G and Wi-fi at the same time, or even just running full wi-fi.

Next, the home/personalization screens. Pinch-zooming would be nice, as it was included in the samsung captivate to begin with. It is also included in the HTC Evo.

Lastly, maybe adjust the battery performance? As it stands, if you open an app, it starts to kill the battery because 3G likes to eat battery life. Maybe try to optimize it?

Oh, and something else I noticed; The search feature doesn't search everything like it should. It skips over contacts and such unless they are in your facebook.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I don't even know where to begin..... Let's try....

1 - This is your FIRST post, and it is obvious that you are not very android familiar, yet you have a DONATE TO ME link?? WTF???

2 - EVERYTHING you talked about is mentioned on this thread. The "search this thread" button is there for a reason.

I will let someone else address each of your "mentions" point by point.....

In short, you REALLY should read before posting......;)
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Battery like GPS is subjective. Everyone has a different experience. Everyone uses their phones differently. Non of the battery stuff is informative to me because of that. I get anywhere from 5 hours to 12 hours depending on how much I am playing with it and what I am doing with it. I bought the Samsung charger and carry extra batteries.

I used to use Juice Defender. But extra batteries are the best way to deal with it. I use 2G mostly now for background actions. I have the minimum sync times on Gmail,FB,Twitter and location updating and whatever else runs in the BG. My phone runs.....LOL. That little change is the change I like most in this last ROMs. The ability to use 2G in the BG. TVMX notifications... Google Voice does that a lot better than ATT anyway

80-90% of the time I am in a WiFi area though so I don't know how much that will save.

What do I owe you for that information.......:confused: :D

Mine massively drains during standby. I have the Wifi to turn off when screen is off, with the wifi policy changed to 30 seconds. Mine drains about 1% per every 5-10 mins. Also, GPS funcitonality was usable on the 2.4, 2.4.1 is gone.

If that's the issue then turn airplane mode on and then off.

well, mainly its display, but its at auto and 76% with 4m of use. The phone has been off the charger for maybe 2 hours. Wifi was 14% with 43m of use which i didnt understand since it was supposed to be disabled.

I too am having ridiculously high battery draw on 2.4.1.

An easy 5%/hour while off/standby sitting on the same desk it was sitting on when I had 2.2B5.5 installed.

been unplugged for 1hr 17min with 12m of use. batt at 87%

I went through a complete batt cycle in just under half a day.

Although I do like the vibrant look much more...
[Captivate Android Development] iamcombat:

charged to 100% last night before I went out....I turned the screen on maybe 5 times to check the time...made no calls and texted probably 3 people....after i woke up this morning it was sitting at 78%

Also phone gave me one or two fc.

So I can use Qtadb to install apks OVER other apks like dialer.apk etc

What about replacing bootanimation,zip I tried to "copy" it over but it would not copy over the \Media\bootanimation.zip file

I was thinking of replacing some dialer.apks as well.

QTadb seems like a great tool.....I am just not ready to reinstall my ROM again. I amy mess with it when DG comes out with a new ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
I would go back to something that works for you. Sounds like major issues for your phone with this ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Juice defender will do it. It sets you wifi and Data to come on for a certain time every hour.and many other apps to conserve battery life. I used it initially but decided an extra battery would allow me to use the phone as I please. Now I don't care if I get 5 hours or 12 hours. It is liberating to say the least.
[Captivate Android Development] JPS81:
Yeah, I can't even lock onto more than one satellite on 2.4 regardless of how much time passes. I've literally had my phone in my windshield-attached phone mount in my car, stationary, for half an hour, still no lock. I made sure all the settings were stock and cleared the GPS data after the first few fails, didn't make a difference.

I'm afraid to try 2.4.1 as so many people are complaining about battery drain issues.
[Captivate Android Development] dagnus:
i had the same issues. just revert to 2.3b3 and things should work again for you.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
2.4.1 is working good for me with a few fixes/calibrations.

I had to perform clearing batt stats and battery calibrations found within this site and now I am back to pretty good results. Over 12 hours and at 50%.

I added/replaced phone.apk (that i got from an older rom and I posted here) and now I get Gmail and Yahoo mail notifications.

I did GPS calibrations that I found here and I am locking at min. Of 7 satellites at 11 seconds.

Read through all tbese post and you will find answers for any issues. Read Read Read. I am a noob but have flashed every cog rom since 5.5. Have soft bricked it and learned to recover from it. It all takes some reading and trial and error. I understand these are betas so flash if you want to beta test or stay with stock. DG has been great to me and I only have had a few issues that were User Error issues and not rom related. Just wanted to post on my success/bugs? For 2.4.1 Thanks DG for all your hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
You may need to use it in recovery and in cwm use the mounts and stotage selection to mount your system directory though chamging you boot animation is just as easy ising root explorer and booting and pasting on phone if files are on your sd card

I will check when I get home to see the exact steps to make that accessible in qtadb...can't recall exactly off hand

+one for future rtl bidi support in cognition mods
[Captivate Android Development] Twoam:
Oh, and I've noticed a lot of hate and anger on the GPS debate. I think its more a hardware issue than a rom.

Mine has always worked well and I have tried almost every version of cognition, save one or two when dg was pumping out the v9 ones almost every day.

If dg changed something to the GPS portion of the rom then sure, but I doubt he has touched it at all. Everyone just needs to calm down and not flame dg or other users in here.

I have read every post in here, EVERY POST, and the last two hundred pages our so have been filled with useless complaints and flames.

Only three things belong in here;

Thanks to DG or others fire their help.

Bug reports or workarounds you have found.

Requests fire future releases.

Everything else either belongs in another thread because it does not pertain to the rom or are questions that can be answered using the search function our reading the wiki.

I mean how many pages of how do I flash, how do I use clock work and links to thee roms do we need? Its all on the first post. [/RANT]

Love all the work you do DG. Thanks

Could to explain a bit more? I see the darkness theme but I'm not sure which one to apply to make it look like stock again.

It is not going to make it look like stock again...it will make it look just like it does in the screenshots in that thread. Here is another theme that works great if you like the look of it better. Darkness was just too "dark" for me...if you use the one here you will have to use the deodexed version with power menu.

[Captivate Android Development] tysj:
My battery's a bit better as well. Granted I'm still in the recalibration process but it's dropping a lot slower than 2.4, but it's still dropping faster than the other versions.

Also would like to add that I got the official dock today from Newegg. Tried out the line out and it's confirmed working on Froyo as it should when I plug in headphones in the back (have to uncheck the "use internal speaker when docked" option though).

More Props to DG!!

Just a quick thanks to DG. You have spoiled me! I have flashed several of your roms and can pretty much do it in my sleep now. My little brother is interested in rooting his Incredible so we ventured into those roms and the rooting process. While not overly difficult it isn't that snappy process you've spoiled us with, ODIN's and all :D.

Keep up the excellent work.

Battery circle meter and default lock mods not working with 2.4?

Has anyone else have trouble installing the battery circle meter mod that used to be linked to the download page? I tried to install it with clockwork after doing a master clean 2.4 install.

Considering Setiron on 2.3b2

Been reading a lot of positive info on the Setiron kernel, and am considering flashing it.

If for whatever reason I want to go back to what comes with 2.3b2, anyone know if I can and/or if that kernel is available? I don't see just the kernel on the download page.

My thoughts are to flash the kernel, give it a go, and possibly flash back to stock Cog kernel. Not a complete reflash of 2.3b2.

Search for UOT KITCHEN. Upload your existing framework file and choose Your battery....then copy it back to your phone. The framework files from different versions of these roms and firmwares are not interchangeable. The only sure way is to modify the one on your current rom.
