hey guys i gotta a question a turnd on haptic feed back and it still doesnt work on the keyboard any ideas

Yes it is a know issue...
[Captivate Android Development] jorge_moran_jams:
Quick question

I know this is probably a n00b question but, if I ever need to reflash Stock 2.1 using Odin 1 click do I need to disable Voodoo...? if I do have to disable it, how do I do this...?

Thanks

On the applications screen on the phone, it's labeled as HD Camcorder. Excuse me if I term anything wrong, I'm not a programmer, but it seems like it's pretty much a shortcut to the camera app, but goes to video recording instead of taking still pictures.
[Captivate Android Development] wjcaptivate:
Noob question here: Since a lot of users flash back to stock prior to flashing to the new version is there anyway you can write a script to grab the id and automatically put it in the new version?
[Captivate Android Development] brooklynguy1:
To get haptic feedback i simply just switched keyboards in my settings menu standard keyboard haptic works fine still matches cause its grey when its fixed ill just switch back simple solution

Android id app on market does this for you. Go to stock. Download app. Open and click save Id flash new rom. DG has app in build. Click restore id then change id. Phone reboots and there you go

If none at all, go to menu/settings/sound/click use haptic feedback.

[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Just on the android keyboard. Even if I have it set, I still get nothing.

Well that's the weird part. I had GREAT battery life with 2.2b1. 17 hours from full to dead. Looks like I might only get 10-12 hours on this rom. I guess I'll have a better idea after I charge it today and see how long I get at work tonight.

Thanks so much. Appreciate the help
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Whitesdan, THANKS for that. I opened up a cog 2.3b1 zip folder went into the folder for system/app and found the files you listed, opened up my dropbox account and uploaded them to it. I then downloaded them onto my phone. Next I copied them with Root Explorer, went into the /system/app folder and LONG pressed the Phone.apk file and renamed it to Phone.apk.old (started to get force closes) then hit Paste and the force closes went away. I did that for BOTH files you mentioned Ie:Phone.apk and Phone_Util.apk Next I rebooted. When it came back up I went and called my voicemail just to make sure my dialer was working and nothing was force closing. Then from my work phone I called my cell number. It first showed a Missed Call. I left a voicemail and then got the chime for the Voicemail. So THANKS for a quick easy fix. If ANYONE needs or wants to do this I have the apk files in the dropbox folder. I will see if I can just add them here or link them.

Phone.apk http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14178225/Phone.apk

Phone_util.apk http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14178225/Phone_Util.apk
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Not sure what the difference would be but this also works *#*#1472365#*#*

I was able to use your also and they both took me to Lbstest mode. Is there a difference? I did not see anything that would be different version or anything. I do NOT want to get on the GPS kick going around since mine had always worked fine but I did have an issue with 2.4 but it was QUICKLY remedied with using Lbstest mode using:

Delete GPS data

Application Setting, Switch HOT START to COLD START

Turn OFF phone and reboot

Went back into LBSTest to change it back to HOT start but it automatically did. Then I was able to get the first lock outside in clear skies in 5 minutes. The SECOND time I tried and EVER since it is usually 15 Seconds with AT LEAST 6 locked on sats. It seemed to get better over time. I drove to work, had a few hickups going off the freeway. Tried again later on the way home and it was dead on with 15 meters or less (usually around 5 meters).
[Captivate Android Development] EsotericPunk:
Sigh... I really wanna be on board with 2.4, but I seem to be having small weirdnesses all over with it. SwiftKey/Scrybe/ThickButtons kb's FC all the time. Pandora keeps randomly shutting off so that I have to pause and hit play again. No VM notif's. Have had a couple random restarts and lockups. Haven't seen these problems on any of the previous builds. Anyone think a reflash may help? I've never had a problem flashing with any particular method before, but this seems a lot less stable than previous builds to me.

Edit: Having some market install issues as well, even after clearing out cache and data.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I may get flamed for this but if so....bite me.

I think its safe to say tha gps is not as good with this ROM as previous ROM's that have been released...I think its OK but no its no as good and considering its a vibrant ROM base to be expected in my opinion. I 100% agree with that but we all know that the captivate is less than perfect in that respect to start with so that is just how it is...lets move on.

My observations for this ROM is that it is much more polished than the recent beta ROM's and that should be expected as well. There are positive things in the beta's and trade offs. My experience is, and the reason I keep coming back is, that DG's ROM's even based on betas are far superior to the stock ROM's.

I agree that we should all report any problems we experience and continue to in order to quantify the scope of the isues but, with respect, I think at this point it safe to say that the magnitude of the GPS issues have been established.

Other than GPS issues, I am back to the solid nature that I experienced during the 2.1 days and that plus the additions of Froyo is a good trade off,

DG, I think what you bring is awesome....Im not a programmer...I never was able to think that way but is an area I want to learn.....Im a network guy but I totally appreciate what you bring to us (not that network guys admit that to programmers). I would have given this phone up in my first 30 days if not for your efforts which is why I donated, and why will again....you deserve it.

Keep cranking them out, we will keep installing them and discussing the issues to an insane degrree. That is a tribute to our desire for what you put out and a respect for what you do...some will bitc$ but nothing is perfect and I look foward to the next opportunity to run a DG ROM says a person respectfully running 2.4.

Going to bed, look forward to the comments tomorrow but you know I am right. GPS is not as good, DG's ROM''s ROCK...bring the next version on!!!!

Vibrant JK2 *Matte* Theme

Don't know if anybody mentioned this or has tried it, but I took a look over in the Vibrant Theme and App section to see if some themes would work since our ROM is based on the Vibrant JK2 theme. I've successfully flashed the "Inverted notification, with AOSP lockscreen, power menu, DEODEXED JK2 ONLY" theme and it's wonderful!. It's got great animations, colors, etc... I just flashed and haven't seen any problems. I will comment if I experience any problems. Here is the link to the thread. It has screenshots http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=835540

[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
I can confirm it works and really is a great theme for our phone... and yes you use Rom manager to apply it.
[Captivate Android Development] mikejames07:
You bet.... well I keep the cvm update.zip on my sdcard so I just manually boot into recovery mode but using rom manager is the same thing right? I also discovered that while the animations are really cool, they can become annoying lol. They can be turned off in Settings->Display.

I can post some screens of my own if there are some doubters. Just ask... I should be up for at least another hr.

Hey I have been following this thread and I haven't seen anyone else with the issue but now that I'm on 2.4 my computer (Windows 7) wint recognize the phone when plugged in. I definitely have the usb drivers installed and I have been able to use odin and such for several previous roms. Does thia have to do with 2.4 being based off of the Vibrant? If anyone knows how to get usb connectivity back id very much appreciate it seeing as not having it inhibits basically all further flashing.

Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
SO Why did you buy the phone? The GPS issue has been noted since day one.....

Secondly why didn;t yo' switch it out for a phone with a smaller screen but better GPS?

The phone is advertised as having GPS.....It does. It doesn't say it will lock in 10 seconds with 10 feet of accuracy.....It does as advertised, not was well as others...likely better than others as well...

Come om people it's not like this isn't a well know issue....and no one forced anyone to buy the Device. Early adopters always get burned

The thing about waiting a few months is you get to see what people are complaining about and deciding if it is something that is a deal breaker for you.

I really don't get all the whining........

I would have rather it been a Nokia myself but Nokia doesn't have anywhere near this feature set and capability....

I really don't think Samsung will make any great effort to "fix" the GPS...5 million sold tells them people are choosing it after the fact

Running 2.4 with SetiroN kernel 3.1.5 and all is working well besides boot animations. I LOVE The darkness theme for Cog.

It's safe to say that Captivate rom = i9000 rom (at least Cognition = i9000 rom). No real difference if you are using the same kernel with the same features.

Just for the record, this is with Cog 2.4 ;)

I really did not want to post on GPS issue again but the idiotic talk in last 50 pages is staggering - specially from self appointed mods (no offense to real mods - you are doing a good job). For the last time please read - and take English lessons if you don't understand

--- Majority of folks who are saying GPS not working in v2.4 understand very well that GPS is an issue with Captivate or Galaxy S phones. The issue with V2.4 is that GPS has stopped working altogether - No lock for at least 10 minutes and then lose immediately.

--- GPS worked well with Cog V2.3b are before.

--- Applying following fix improves GPS issue significantly.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9150551&postcount=7862

I repeat for the benefit of some slow people in this thread who like to post in 24 size font in red color

There is a GPS issue with v2.4 as compared to previous Cog versions for many (not all) of us. We understand what a beta means (and 2.4 is not even a beta anymore).

FWIW I am back to v2.3b. Its the best ROM to date. Everything (including GPS) works !!!

Tested vm on 2.4 and no indicator shows up for vm but the missed call indicator shows up. Thats not helpful if the phone is off and voice mail is left.

Not sure if its rom related but could be. Have to see if someone on an ealier cog or on stock has vm notification issues then it may be att system issues. But if the vm notifications have not been there for a while then it could be rom issues.

I don't recall seeing this above with 2.4 (may have just missed it), but my call logs reset at midnight last night! I had a few dozen calls (and 35 texts), and when I checked around 12:35am, the only call listed was the one made after 12. My SMS messages were not reset, however.

Rtl is built into froyo. If you need keyboard for input, install anysoft keyboard (free) and the language module you need (hebrew, arabic, etc). After that you can remove english from the available languages for anysoft. I use swype for english, long press on text area to select input method, switch to anysoft for rtl.

[Captivate Android Development] prim8:
It shouldn't be an issue since the new ROM supports it also.

Best practice should be to disable it before flashing but you're not the first person to forget.

If there is a problem just one click back to stock, root, install rom manager, install CWM then reflash.
