You know, I had that problem even with text messages on 2.1 ROMS and on Froyo ROMS. Turned out it was my damn SIM card! If I stopped receiving messages on my Captivate, I'd either have to factory reset OR stick the SIM in another phone & let the messages come through and then they'd work on my Captivate again for about a week. I replaced the SIM and all that went away, not a problem since. May not be your problem, but just FYI.
[Captivate Android Development] Chief Beefalo:
Yes.

That is what i did. Worked Flawlessly for me.

Anyone know how to fix the clockworkmod recovery? Im running beta2 and want to upgrade but it cant flash it without it
[Captivate Android Development] simulatordos:
The auto brightness runs down the battery pretty quickly on beta 1 imo. Turn it to a very low manual brightness setting and you'll find much better battery performance.

Swype has always sort of sucked on our phones. I owned the Aria before the Captivate and Swype was amazing on it. On the Aria, Swype got the right word about 98% of the time. On the Captivate, Swype seems to get the right word only about 80% of the time. Really frustrating. I'm just about to give up on Swype if we don't get a better version with a non-retarded dictionary.

Hey guys, has anyone encountered this:

- When I boot the phone it says "Downloading" there is a yellow sign with Andorid logo. This occurs right after I press +- key on the volume and power button.

- When I open Odin I receive the following error message

<OSM> All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 0)

I have correct drivers, because it recognizes it when I boot up.

Any ideas ?

Thanks in advance !

Try sending the word test to 151 and that should test whether or not your text messaging is working.

I got mine working by selecting English as the language. It might be unselected by default.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Funny, cuz I noticed that too. Wound up installing the Vlingo keyboard anyway for the haptic feedback. Vlingo works fine with auto correct, and the Android keyboard said it had english, but I never particularly selected anything. I might have to try that to see if it works just for gits and shiggles. I'm liking the Vlingo keyboard anyways, cuz it's really the same keyboard, and haptic feedback works!

EDIT: Nope. Auto correct is NOT working for me with the Android keyboard even after selecting English as the language. But like I said, I like the Vlingo one anyways. ;)

I feel bad that I put those up there, but I also don't like destroying Ponack's server bandwidth...

Thanks for understanding, or not if you don't like it, lol.

Hehe, it thought it was pretty fast without voodoo, then turning it on, wow...

Nice! Thank you sir, I just stocked my fridge last night but I am sure I will need some more by the weekend!!

"stock froyo" ???

I try to faithfully keep up on this thread every day, and in the last 24 hours have seen a number of references to a "stock froyo" ROM.

What is this? Every source I can find says that there is no released Android 2.2 Froyo ROM for the Captivate. The only "stock" ROM I'm aware of is the I897UCJF6 2.1 ROM. What are you guys talking about?

Thanks.

Isn't Voodoo autmatically turned on after we flash the new rom through CWM? Or, am I a moron?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Delete the disable lagfix folder then reboot. Assuming you disabled voodoo prior to flashing

Captivate

Cog 2.2
[Captivate Android Development] kiltedthrower:
This was prob answered on the last few pages so stupid question but can I...

copy/paste the zip onto the SD card and then flash from CWM?

And for those that were running 2.2beta9.1.2 do you like the newest version better?
[Captivate Android Development] gr1fter:
on 2.3b2 and just wanted to chime in that Autocorrect is borked with Android Keyboard. Everything else seems fine at the moment. Thanks DG
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes put zip on SD and use CW. Make sure you disable. Any lagfix you have installed.

Personally with less then one. Ddays use I believe the new cog is the best

[Captivate Android Development] kiltedthrower:
Since voodoo was included in the 9.1.2 cog, and this one is also voodoo, we still need to disable the voodoo?
[Captivate Android Development] Capivik:
I am sure this has already been asked but this thread is getting mighty long. What exactly is the reason for the Android ID changer. Will we be ok NOT using it or should everyone do it?

Thanks.

-edit- Is the Voodoo Lagfix automatically working in the latest beta build or do we have to get that from somewhere. If so where?
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
All of us who are using the new ROM have the same device id. Some games, and maybe some other apps, will not work properly. To avoid any of these issues, you should change your id to the one that specific to your personal device. This can be done with Android ID Changer.

Hi im using AOSP Email with 2.3b2, no problems found. You just need the file and terminal emulator to enable it.

login as root

cd /system/app

rm Email.*

cat /sdcard/Email.apk > Email.apk

chmod 644 Email.apk

reboot.

Then you need to edit the screen icons to add it to the launcher.

I'm having no issues at all with 2.3b2. Everything is working great.

ok i dont know if this is a bug of if anyone else has noticed this or not. When i press the side power button to turn off my screen. i get a weird sound. it kinda sounds like the camera shutter sounds but shorter. what makes it more odd for me is i have Audible selection turned off.
[Captivate Android Development] Guardian_Bob:
So I'm still on 2.2b6. I've been trying to catch up on what's been happening and here's what I guess is the pros/cons of upgrading to 2.3.b2.

Pros:

Faster

Less Battery Usage

Voodoo

Improved GPS

Cons:

MMS bug (easy to fix)

Wireless AP isn't working

Android Keyboard Auto Correct isn't working correctly.

Unknowns:

Bluetooth Capabilities (any improvement on sometimes not getting connected?)

Is that about the size of things right now? I've gotta go back to stock to get my Android ID and want to have all the information to see if upgrading is worth while. (Trying to get Kies to work, I suspect the Android ID is important as I changed the ID and now the software won't even recognize the phone. I flashed cog without first getting my Android ID, which was stupid of me.)
[Captivate Android Development] Death_Keeper:
first i have to say,Very impressive Work so far! i've followed your thread for a while now. been flashing my friend's Captivate - its on cog2.2.8.1 - cant wait for him to come tomorrow so i can flash your newest build.

and i love what you did with your site - i'll be clicking those ads like crazy if it helps you!

one thing i cant seem to find is the known issues section - maybe there aren't any? :)

Thanks again!

[Captivate Android Development] Aftashok:
is there a way to pull an event log or something of the sort? i upgraded from 5.5 to 9.1.3, and then used TiBu to restore all my apps+data (no system data though), and now, i cant MAKE a call. whenever i try to make a call, com.android.phone always force closes on me, but ZERO issues upon receiving a call, and NO other issues of any sort otherwise. ive reflashed, factory reset and all, and the problem doesnt occur until i restore my apps. i was hoping if i pulled a log of sorts, i could maybe see what program/task is causing the problem, and just not reinstall IT, instead of possibly having to restore apps one at a time.

Thanks a bunch! Can I pull the Email.apk from another ROM that has AOSP, or do I need another file as well?
[Captivate Android Development] Guardian_Bob:
Um yeah, I thought I made a backup, but apparently I didn't. (I mean I hit the button and the phone rebooted, but I didn't check for the file. Apparently there was some kind of error.) It was my first time using CW and I didn't know what it should look like backing up.
[Captivate Android Development] chrisharmful:
I wasn't going to bring this up but after reading some of these post...

I'm running 2.3b2 and it says i'm running JI6 as my baseband. I don't remember checking it after flashing 2.3b2, but I remember it being JJ4 before. Not sure if it's that big of a deal because it's blazing fast even without voodoo. I've only had two slight hiccups, I cound't send or receive texts or mms to my coworker but can send and receive from everyone else on my contacts, and I have to toggle wifi on and off now for it to recognize any wifi signal, where before it would find it and switch automatically.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
I wound up detaching it from the market in Titanium and reinstalling it through the market.

I still see the same thing. after i perform a couple searches, then when i try another search i keep returning to a previous search's results screen

I uninstalled it then in TB and reinstalled. Still acts the same as above.
[Captivate Android Development] rasroygbiv:
I have had the same issue with LauncherPro too. Force closes every time I reboot, then generally runs fine until next reboot. I have uninstalled it and reinstalled it and still the same behavior. Any ideas?

Other than that, my Cappy is screaming fast! Beer money headed your way tomorrow DG!

[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
Download "DeviceID" from the market. When you open it, it will show your current device id. The id shown is the one that came with the ROM. You will then have to use Android ID Changer to change to the real ID.

[Captivate Android Development] Ashkerlon:
adding mod

quick question: when adding a mod like circle battery or whatever else, while using 7zip, do u just drop the modded file onto the cog about to be flashed? or do u have to extract the smaller zipped mod and then drop those files on to the cog zip?

thx in advance:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] xtremeskier:
I'm running 2.3b2 as well and my baseband shows jj4 (may want to reflash). As for send and receiving texts to that one person, check their contact info and take a look at the format of the number you have for them. Take out any ( ) so it looks like xxx-xxx-xxxx. Hopefully that will resolve that issue.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremeskier:
If you don't plan on actually changing the images inside the circle battery mod then simply download the version you want that is supported by 2.3b. Copy the zip to the internal sd card. After that open Rom Manager (free from market) and install zip from sdcard. Select the zip for the circle battery mod. leave both check boxes unchecked. It should reboot and install the mod.

It worked for me flawlessly.
[Captivate Android Development] JamesR913:
Sorry if this is a bit of a noob question but I got in late on the Cog bandwagon and dont have the time to read through 167 pages (50 posts per page). Is there a real benefit of flashing from 2.2 9.1.3 to 2.3?
[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
I would flash it. 2.3 is running good for me. Flash using CWM and make sure you click "Clear Cache" option in ROM manager before flashing. I would also disable voodoo
[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
So that you can sleep better at night knowing you have latest ROM flashed.:D

There is no tangible benefit for the change other than it is using latest version of leaked froyo. Is it better? Many folks seem to think it is faster, but many other folks are seeing issues too. If you really need to always be on latest version then you should flash, otherwise it would be wise to wait for few days till all 2.3 issues are fixed.
[Captivate Android Development] xtremeskier:
As far as I'm concerned the only draw back to 2.3b+ is the lack of mobile AP. So if you don't use that then definitely flash to the newest version through CWM.

Yes, many have had your issue. Manually configuring the AP is the solution. Any home button problems? If so, re-flash again and it will fix that.
[Captivate Android Development] MrByte:
You will get different answers on that. My 1st cappy had issues, the first replacement I got (because of GPS not working on the original one) worked great, even driving, 2nd replacement (because the 1st replacement was shutting off randomly) also works great.

I've found that in many cases it is a combination of HW & SW. In some cases it really is the GPS itself.... get a warranty replacement. Period.

Then we have the software issue. It seems that the Google navi app has its issues. When using applications like Co-Pilot or OsmAnd (free in MarketPlace) that have local maps it work much better then having to pull the data from the net. And there's of course some of the lbs settings...
