why so rude :confused: I am not sure but he might have answered to my inquiry on the GPS status on this new version. I know answers are very subjective for the cappy...... but still, wanted to have a feel on how this version was doing...

Is it working in 2.3b4?
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Quickoffice use to much ram trying to open things and FC's, try thinkfree office, its working great for me and coming in the next build to replace quick office.
[Captivate Android Development] Drew489:
No one should be afraid to ask gps questions. Good job guys harassing me yesterday...really made this a better place.

And I get zero locks with this rom. Best for me was stock jh7 but that still sucked.

[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Good to know, thanks.

Not sure what happened with my android ID, but it was not restored with this rom. It restored successfully through Android ID changer, but it sounded like it should have been automatic in the release notes.

KEYBOARD

Tell you the truth the missing keyboards is not an issue for me atleast as I have always used BETTER KEYBOARD and with that have an array of all kinds of keyboard skins to match my themes so eh no biggie to me.
[Captivate Android Development] Chief Beefalo:
Only if you had save it on the previous build to your S card.

Quickoffice for captivate in the market is not good.. FC'ed on PDF. Get the quickoffice apk from DG's Removed Apps link

anyway we can get the talking android to say stuff when you unlock the phone? that would be super cool i think. is there even a way to change the unlock sounds?
[Captivate Android Development] kppanic:
OK. After a bit of consideration, reverting back to 2.4.1. GPS worked almost perfectly, and battery life was very very good.

Trying to help

I have been looking through my past rom downloads trying to find the keyboard apk's to put them up for you but I don't see them if you or someone can tell me where they are I will put them up for you
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Loaded this ROM last night....Not sure I like it better. I am going back to 4.1 with my own apps picked from earlier ROMS that were left out.

Biggest issue I had this AM is Wifi not connecting kept saying not available retry bit it did not default into 3G and the wifi notification was on.....Seems a little less smooth as well.

Biggest issue with 2.4.1 was VMX notifications....they work on the new rOM so I have slipped the apks in the Zip...we shall see..

May wait for more "reviews" to come in.

Battery was not an issue with 2.4 for me. I got about 50%-60 after 7-8 hours and am satisfied with that and carry extra charged battery anyway,

Using Android Pissing on Apple Bootanimation in my own concoction

Back to stock/master clear /update and load.....lol

Not a biggy but, has anyone else lost their voodoo voices? I lost them after flashing to the vibrant rom (Obviously). I didn't care for the vibrant so I flashed back to 2.2 beta 9.1.3.

I am on the current ROM now and have Wiped/Flashed twice and they still don't work.

Any ideas as to why this might be happening. Everything else seems fine so far, no FC's or anything wierd.

Thanks!

GPS FIX

This info is re-posted from another XDA member. I couldn't find it again in this thread, but here are the instructions, which I copied when I saw it originally a few days ago.

Fo the record: I could not get a lock, I did this and my longest time to lock has been 11 seconds. Hope this helps you like it did me.

Note to original poster: THANK YOU!!!!!!

***************************************

1. Disable “Use Wireless Networks”

1. Navigate to Settings > Location & Security > uncheck the box next to “Use Wireless Networks”

2. Go to the phone and dial *#*#3214789650#*#*

1. This step throws you into LBSTestMode menu

3. In the LBSTestMode menu change “Operation Mode” to MS Based

4. In the LBSTestMode menu, find “SUPL/CP Settings” and change the SERVER & PORT to supl.google.com and port 7276 (DO NOT use www. in front of supl)

5. REBOOT

6. Enable “Use Wireless Networks”

* Navigate to Settings > Location & Security > check the box next to “Use Wireless Networks”

Should you want to revert back to your original GPS settings, you’ll need to re-enter you factory specs:

No but my voodoo has decided to announce every action i do one my phone. ie, if i click contacts it says tells me the file location. if i lock the phone it tells me the screen is locked and my current batt %. its really annoying. ive tried reboot to no avail i guess the next step is to reflash.
[Captivate Android Development] D-FUSE:
so and i take the samsung widget feeds and updates on of 2.4.1 and put it in 2.3b4 and if so i would i go about doing it ?

Thanks Again DG....
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
do i need to install a version of froyo on my captivate before I can update to the latest version of cognition?

this is my first ROM install and was wondering if that was the case.

I'm running a canadian rogers I896 with stock ROM. it is rooted and have applied the OCLF. The only other thing done to the phone was a backup using ROM manager and removed some of the rogers apps that were lame.

I was also wondering if:

1- will cognition work the my canadian I896 model as is or do I have to download a different version or change some files?

2- if I have applied the OCLF does it interfere with VOODOO that is included in the cognition ROM?

thanks...i've been searching this stuff all morning and havn't been able to find any answers that were adaquate.
[Captivate Android Development] drno79:
Excellent! Wallpapers working now, thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] kppanic:
Ok so after reverting back to 2.4 1 and setting the GPS to Supl.google.com it works again. I think I am going to stay with this one for a bit.
[Captivate Android Development] SiL3nTKiLL:
gonna try the new verison soon :)
[Captivate Android Development] kytrauma:
NO you dont. Voodoo has something to say about every button i push on my phone. i like the voice during boot-up and would be kinda cool on screnn lock and unlock but every action that is performed on my phone is announced by voodoo.
[Captivate Android Development] connexion2005:
SORRY IF THIS IS NEWB ADVICE FOR YOU GURUS BUT A LOT OF US, INCLUDING MYSELF ARE NEW TO THE ANDROID PLATFORM.

OK. For all you guys (including me) that were having any type of VPN issues regarding using the tun.ko file in order to use VPNC and OpenVPN for connecting to Cisco ASA appliances using IPSEC VPN access, LOOK HERE.

Simply follow these steps. ALL CREDIT GOES TO SUKKUBUS06 from another topic here on XDA. I modified a few steps that I think help the clarity of the instructions.

* Download the correct tun.ko for Android 2.2 here (it says Nexus One but works perfect with my Cognition ROM on Captivate): http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/downloads/detail?name=tun.ko&can=2&q=

Copy the tun.ko file to the ROOT of your internal SD Card.

Un-install any OpenVPN Settings, OpenVPN Installer, or OpenVPNC applications if they are installed. Perform these steps from scratch...TRUST ME.

You must have the Busy Box installer downloaded and install Busy Box. This app is availabe in the app store. use 1.17.

For the next step you must have the android SDK files on your computer. Open a command prompt, change directories to the C:\android-sdk-windows\tools directory then start the code commands.

Code:

adb shell

su(ALLOW ACCESS ON YOUR PHONE WHEN SUPER USER PROMPTS YOU)

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/stl6 /system

cp /sdcard/tun.ko /system/xbin/

* create symlinks for busybox route and ifconfig (required by openvpn)

Code:

cd /system/xbin

mkdir bb

cd bb

ln -s ../busybox ./ifconfig

ln -s ../busybox ./route

* create directory for openvpn config files

Code:

mkdir /sdcard/openvpn

* create symlink for cp (unix command for copy). otherwise the install-script of the OpenVPNInstaller (see below) will fail!!!

Code:

ln -s /system/xbin/busybox /system/xbin/cp

* download OpenVPNInstaller from Android Market

run and configure OpenVPNInstaller

specify directories: busybox is in /system/xbin, ifconfig and route are in /system/xbin/bb

* copy vpn-config files (config, certs, key) to /sdcard/openvpn (i.e. via adb push or mounting the phone as a mass-storage unit)

* download OpenVPN Settings from Android Market

run and configure OpenVPN Settings

activate "load tun kernel module"

Tun module settings:

- Load module using insmod (instead of modprobe!!)

- Path to tun module: /system/xbin/tun.ko

Path to configurations:

/sdcard/openvpn

Path to openvpn binary

/system/xbin/openvpn

Now install the latest VPNC found here: http://code.google.com/p/get-a-robot-vpnc/downloads/detail?name=VPN_Connections_v099.apk&can=2&q=

I rebooted my device at this point. I set up my connection in VPNC and it worked perfectly. Oddly enough when performing a lsmod command in the terminal, I see NO tun.ko module running but hey who cares! It works!

GOOD LUCK! :D
[Captivate Android Development] Built350camaro:
yeah i just want it to talk when i lock and unlock the screen
[Captivate Android Development] sti-06:
I followed the steps mentioned above and my battery life is back to how it was. Thank you very much!!
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
That is not voodoo talking to you. Go to SETTINGS, then SOUND and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "audible selection" then in SETTINGS go to ACCESSIBILITY and make sure TALKBACK is not checked.....
[Captivate Android Development] kytrauma:
Ok i figured out that the phone commentaiting to me was because of the talkback app not voodoo. uninstalled it and everything is smooth again.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Has anyone found the samsung keyboard that works for the new build? I have tried it from a few builds and it force closes. I used root explorer and pasted it into system/app

Do I need to put it in in an other way? I did extract it and then copy it into the folder. Any help is appreciated
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I have been meaning to give swype a try. Guess this is as good a time as any.

No issues with the install

Someone asked before if they needed froyo before flashing this. No. disable oclf and get rid of ext 2 partition

Captivate

Cog 2.4
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
disable OCLF and get rid of EXT 2?

by that you mean to remove EXT2 tools and then undo the OCLF V2+ i ahve going now and remove the OCLF app once that's done and simply follow the directions on the wiki to successfully install cog?

i just wanna be sure before i do this.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I THINK the sequence would be:

Undo lagfix, then remove tools.

Follow instructions to install cog. Cog is rooted and has the voodoo lagfix.
[Captivate Android Development] JGGW:
got i thanks...

i backed up my files with Titanium but i don't see the Titanium app is that normal?

is there a way to get swype to turn off?

apparently importing my contacts doesn't happen automatically... any ideas how to get that back?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes undo lagfix then ext 2 tools. From there you should be set to flash. I would run a quadrant score and make sure you are in the 900 range to make sure that it is off

Captivate

Cog 2.4
[Captivate Android Development] beazie0885:
Anybody else lost the option to set live wallpaper after upgrading today?
[Captivate Android Development] larmor19:
Really would like to have the android keyboard back. Swype just is not for me. I tried the download AxT9IME.apk which is actually the Samsung keyboard. The Android keyboard is LatinIME.apk I tried it from several different rom versions and always get FC's.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Nevermind I got it. Thx anyway
[Captivate Android Development] cmdrmonkey:
Glad to see they reverted back to using a Captivate ROM. The Vibrant based ROMS gave me nothing but trouble. The Mobile AP didn't work, 3G was flaky, and my battery life was horrible. I had already reverted back to 2.3b3 before this came out.
[Captivate Android Development] loserskater:
Read the last 2-3 pages...
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
For those looking for a keyboard other then swype. There is a thread in the themes section for an htc keyboard that is pretty good. There is also a web site where you can go to make custom themes.

Captivate

Cog 2.4
[Captivate Android Development] meatservo80:
Does the newest versions not include the version of cw that supports ext4 so we don't have to disable the lagfix? I flashed from cw from version to version for b3 from b2 without disabling it.? Also does the kernal included with 2.3 betas have the hspua modem capability built in?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
There have been some who have flashed without disable lagfix. No on HSPU

Captivate

Cog 2.4
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
How did you get it? I will search further if not.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Here is the android keyboard : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10818379/LatinIME.apk

No on hsupa......
[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
No it does not, but based on whatever little experience in this section, I would not use ODIN unless needed, Clockwork is safe and really easy to use. Just remember to select "Wipe Data" when it asks.
[Captivate Android Development] daandman:
Do I need to unzip the live wallpaper files into /system/app? Because I moved them both in there with Root Explorer & I still don't have live wallpapers.

Anyone from the Socal area that sees a difference in download from hspu addition? I'm in Oxnard for work and using mine for hotspot constantly. But I am new to this and have only been using

Maybe it will fix GPS for you. No harm to try

Nevermind. I just tried it & yup, it works now. :D
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
As much as I usually try to keep up with every single rom that is released, I simply can not do without the JK2 theme I am using so hopefully it will eventually get ported by someone who knows how so I can catch back up. lol

It would be great if this gets added to wiki. People would stock asking.

Oh yeah the battery calibration does work wonders. 16+ hrs with medium use 2 hrs music 20 mins call. GPS on 3g on beautiful widget running with auto update 30 mins. Gmail sync auto update. Installed few apps from market. On and off on xda app and and only used 61%.

i think i've really gone and screwed up and could use a little help pls.

I installed cog and it turne dmy canadian phone into an at&T loaded one without my apps and without my contacts. It wouldn't connect to even an edge network so i got onto the market with the wifi function, downloaded the ROM manager and installed.

once installed i went to the recovery section and loaded the backup i had made before putting cog onto the phone. It did its business and re-loaded its self without a hitch until the start sequence was done and i got the the "swipe to unlock screen" where it seems to be frozen.

can anyone please help... i also have the original Rogers Rom downloaded to my comp in case this happened.

the phone seems to vibrate and come out of sleep mode every 30 secs or so but i can't unlock the screen. The screen went from the cog background back to the one i had when I was on the original ROM

any ideas on how to get my original ROM back?
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Ok Guys I have had enough. I am gonna put together a FAQ for the first page sense most cant seem to read anything from DG site or are just to lazy. If you ask a question that has been covered by the FAQ you will get a link to the FAQ.

The disrespect in this thread is unreal and it stops now. From here on if you get into a flame war it is a Ban for both parties, I understand that I will get alot of "but I didnt start it", but it will stop the feeding of trolls.

I have tried to be easy going on this and over the weekend it seems that at least 3 other mods had to come in here and clean this thread up again, so no more easy going. XDA's rules will be strictly enforced so if you are not sure what they are or have forgotten them HERE is a link for them.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
While i am not THAT familiar with the canadian version and its particular issues, you need to use ODIN in DOWNLOAD mode to get you to a working state. do NOT know what files to recommend, though.

To get ready, you need to pull the battery to stop the boot loop, then follow odin instructions for your device.

I hope this helps at least a little....
[Captivate Android Development] FutureSix:
DG: I love your work, thanks for making my phone an amazing phone.

May I ask one question/request?

I was wondering if it is possible to include more languages in these releases... Like the stock captivate, there's US English, uk english, etc.. for french: there's Swiss and France French which are all azerty.... Would it be possible to add Canadian French from the i9000?

(Only difference is QWERTY vs AZERTY keyboard...) I didn't manage to use Swype in french with a qwerty keyboard...
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
You didnt add the files....
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
Weird...

Did you try delete gps data => reboot => gps position test?

I really like the gps performance of beta5.5. It's the Best i ever gotten.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
ODIN doesnt require root because you are not even booted into an OS when you use ODIN

odin is the best method by far.
[Captivate Android Development] chasesavestheday:
does 5.5 include stock android keyboard?
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
No, but I am working on porting it over :)
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
No it doesn't, but I'm hoping the final release does.

I love the Android Keyboard as well but the positives of 5.5 are too hard to ignore.
[Captivate Android Development] scanlonman:
Okay, I'm retarded. I redit it like that and got stuck on File analysis... so took out my battery, rebooted my PC and now my phone is stuck at:

[edit] I hope there's a way to get out of this...
[Captivate Android Development] chasesavestheday:
you the man my friend..
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Not yet, I generally do try that and will. Thanks for the reminder. What I have done since I got home is changed the stock settings to the following which I generally have done:

supl.google.com

7276

msbased

supl secure socket off

I will try that clearing the data after I try my next drive and see how it goes. What I seemed to notice which is a bit different than I usually see (but I was on stock settings) is it would lock stationary but coudnt track me at any real speed (walking/running was fantastic, it even tracked the side of the road I was on). Either way, 2.2.5 is fantastic and the best I have seen to date thanks to DG!

The only issue I have seen is the remote sim activated which I am not sure what that means and I havent noticed it causing a problem. Very happy overall.
