Dumb question: Did you put the PIT.pit into the pit section in Odin?

what are the FCs from? the error just pops up and goes away before i can read it.
[Captivate Android Development] dirtyballoonot:
You didn't offend me at all, but, since the release of the 2.3B's (the past week) the home button issue has been mentioned SEVERAL times in this thread alone:

http://www.google.com/custom?hl=en&...n&cx=partner-pub-2900107662879704:fs7umqefhnf

No worries, just odin flash it twice, or odin back to stock 2.1, root, and cwm to B3
[Captivate Android Development] butchatbg:
Yes I did that, but it's still giving me that message and my phone won't boot to anything.

I've tried to flash back to stock 2.1 and the one-click downloader is still giving me the same message.
[Captivate Android Development] Me myself:
Thank you dirtybailout. I'm sorry I just didn't come across that bug in the thread (don't know how my search missed it). Well, I'm going to go hang my head in shame. At least I'll have a working home button.
[Captivate Android Development] revolvingdoorslammer:
probably a dumb question, but curious nonetheless... v2.3b3 comes with voodoo lagfix, but Im wondering if i need to enable it or does it enable automatically when I installed the rom? Ive seen the question on a few different pages, but no direct answers unless I just missed it. thanks!

download the odin again and if you are having multiple copies of oding folders make sure that you are using exactly the file that came with current version..

I did all that, I've redownloaded the odin files and made sure i'm using the right PIT and PDA files with that odin version. I still get the same message, "Get PIT for mapping..."

I replaced the kernel in the CW version. And the modem with JPP. Worked the best.
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
Use the one click odin and flash stock. Then do master clear.

Or you could just format your internel SD and then flash stock. Either way im guessing you did lag fixes perhaps and didnt delete them.
[Captivate Android Development] a3plew:
It is working for me.I'm on 2.3 beta 3...

So how do I format the internal SD if I can't boot to anything and the Odin One-Click for stock 2.1 is giving me the same message?

[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
A pit fail means the FS is not the same as stock...or he has a different device than what the ROM is for.. The pit file affects.............................

- PIT files only affect the 'STL' devices. That is, it affects the OneNAND and not the MoviNAND.

- PIT files appear to control the sizing (and maybe number) of STL devices that appear in Linux.

- PIT files appear to be used by Odin to map filenames inside .tar archives to STL partitions.

STL files are quite small, at under 2KB in size. Most of the file is made up of 0s. I have tried to compare the differences between the 512 513 and 803 PIT files we have available.

All the PIT files start with 76 98 34 12 0D - probably a signature to show it is a PIT file.

[Unimportant]

The 803 PIT file then has 00s all the way to the next common point. The 512 and 513 both have common data till the next common point - but this can't be too important as the 803 just has 00s.

The next common bit seems to read the following:

"oft IBL+PBL Server\90\To boot.bin inn; C:\Program Files\ESTsof

This probably indicates something to Odin. Strange that it has C:\Program Files\ - build path for the PIT file?

Next we have some 0s with common 1s inside them, followed by the word PIT, then more 0s, and then ries.pit. All common from here on with the words 'EFS' and 'efs.rfs'. Probably telling odin to map the efs.rfs file to the 'EFS' token. Tokens probably defined either in the kernel, or in the closed source STL library. More of the same of this, with 'SBL' 'sbl.bin', 'SBL2' 'sbl.bin' -- Both SBL and SBL2 map to the same sbl.bin file?

'PARAM' to 'param.lfs'

'KERNEL' to 'zImage'

'RECOVERY' to 'zImage' (this one is interesting - could we have seperate zImage and recovery? Could save some RAM here!)

[/Unimportant]

And now we'r onto the actual changes between the PIT files. 'FACTORYFS' maps to 'factoryfs.rfs'. However, before the FACTORYFS token, there are some bytes that likely control the partition sizes.

FACTORYFS

803 : A2 04 : 41476

512 : 7A 04 : 31236

513 : CA 04 : 51716

DBDATA

803 : F0 01 : 61441

512 : 18 02 : 6146

513 : C8 01 : 51201

CACHE

803 : 8C

512 : 8C

513 : 8C

MODEM

803 : 32

512 : 32

513 : 32

So there we have it. The only real changes between the PIT files are some seemingly garbage header information in 512/513 that is missing from 803, and FACTORYFS and DBDATA have different numbers -- probably sizes.

So assuming FACTORYFS maps onto /system, we can see that the only differences in the PIT files is moving space back and forwards between /dbdata and /system. The numbers themselves don't mean anything to me - can anybody work it out?
[Captivate Android Development] butchatbg:
Where do I get this?
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
I will post you one for a TEST.........In a PM here in a second.
[Captivate Android Development] ratflinger:
I don't understand all these problems people have upgrading this phone. The only time I had any problems they were self inflicted - I used TiBu & restored the system files also. Just redid the load & everything was fine. I've always used cwm for these upgrades. Hell, I'm 55, you young whipper snappers shouldn't be having any problems at all.
[Captivate Android Development] butchatbg:
I never really had a problem until I after installed V2.2b3 and then tried to go back to stock 2.1 to get the device ID.
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
PM sent. Test it.....well flash it in Clock work
[Captivate Android Development] eclypse3demons:
I had some initial problems going to 2.3b3 with image issues, I had to reflash to 2.1update then master clear, then used CWM to flash to 2.3b3. No issues after that. Everything is working except key feedback with android kb, but my modem and signal issues went away..
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
Yeah kinda seems a master clear is the key huh? Always seems strange all the people that want to argue about it :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] ce2700:
so if I clockwork the 11/5 update it says no data wipe dose that mean I dont have to do a odin clear first??

[Captivate Android Development] crossover37:
So I have Cognition 2.3 B2 on my phone and if I want to put 2.3 B3 do I have to go back to stock Froyo or Eclair or can I flash over it using Odin and still have all my data and settings (like my angry birds progress, I don't wan't to start from the first level anymore lol). Also, if I use titanium backup do I backup angry birds or do I backup everything? I'm kinda confused by that because it if backs up your stuff to your internal SD card then how does it not get erased when you flash over, doesn't your data get wiped when you flash back to stock? I just want to make sure I'm doing it right. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Back up everything, and back your TiBu folder up on your PC, always. Trust me, its NECESSARY.

You can flash over 2.3b2 to 2.3b3, I did it. I had trouble with the custom kernel (had to reflash that with odin or it wouldn't boot) but if you're not using custom kernels youll be fine. Try it with CWM, has no /data wipe so it wont erase your apps.
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
Well i dont use TiBu but i would say do a backup, and place it on your PC...then shoot it to the phone after the reset and flash.
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
Yes and like i have posted in here....many many times. Always wipe first. Rules out alot of issues. :rolleyes: AND backup on your PC or EX SD card...and REMOVE it before a flash....its really easy.
[Captivate Android Development] a3plew:
I did have trouble on first boot.. it seemed to not work while the Google stuff was syncing. Reebooting and manually selecting sync att address book from the settings within the contacts app seemed to make it work. Although I never got network errors as you did.
[Captivate Android Development] Guardian_Bob:
And make sure you back up your PC as well. :p
[Captivate Android Development] crossover37:
So I just select everything on my sd card and copy it to my computer and then use Odin to flash to cog 2.3 b3 and then after it's done paste everything I backed up to my computer back to the internal sd card?
[Captivate Android Development] dirtyballoonot:
Yeah, just not happening for me. Now I'm getting 511 cannot reach network errors. It's not critical. I'll check on it in a couple days I guess

Cognition 2.4, running awesome! Thanks DG! Keep up the good work!

Only issue I've had on all versions thus far is I get some serious lag in larger web pages, i.e. huffingtonpost, engadget, etc. (Smaller pages run quickly with very little if any lag issues.) It's been explained to me that its a memory leak and I've tried to contain it with limited results using either autokiller or minfree manager. I was wondering if it is something that others have experienced and if it is fixable or is it something that nothing can be done about until the official version of Froyo is released?

**Edit** Also, my WiFi takes forever to wake up sometimes after the phone has been sleeping. Any fix to this?
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
I dont know what you "have" to do, but I would flash back to stock and then install Cog 2.2
[Captivate Android Development] Thare187:
I was in Ikea with the wife shopping today. I never get any signal in that place. I went to unlock my phone and noticed that in the upper right hand corner where is usually says AT&T on the lockscreen (the one on the stock AT&T, not the one in Beta4) it said T Mobile. I have never noticed that prior to tonight. It said that for a while and actually switched back to AT&T while still without service. I running Cog2.2BETA2 and have never unlocked the phone. No big deal, just kinda odd
[Captivate Android Development] pillz424:
Has anyone come across a fix for not being able to send MMS with beta 4? I've tried searching the forum, its a daunting task and I haven't found a solution.
[Captivate Android Development] capefearless:
I had a similar issue while I was on stock/rooted 2.1 prior to ever loading cog. It was the MarketAccess app that was the culprit. I was on vacation in an area with weak signal. My wifes un-rooted phone could connect but mine could not. Turns out I was on the t-mobile access point because I was emulating he T-mobile Sim based on settings in the MarketAccess app.
[Captivate Android Development] schweigster:
I am updating from the 2.1 version of this rom. I disabled the voodoo lag fix. Should i leave the "disable-lagfix" file within the voodoo folder after updating to 2.2 cognition since the 2.2 version does not use voodoo? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] bettingpython:
Ok never mind the post about audio not streaming via A2DP to my earpiece. Cycled the bluetooth a couple of times and that seemed to fix it. Great work DG. So far 2.1.5 is my favorite eclair from you and 2.2.4 is working out great now. Any chance we will see voodoo lag fix ext4 partitioning instead of oclf ext2 in an upcoming release?
[Captivate Android Development] rasroygbiv:
Definitely flash the stock ROM. I made the mistake of flashing over older Cognition 2.1 ROM, and it will make your phone do some weird stuff!

[Captivate Android Development] ComputerChuck:
Exchange pieces fixed in beta 4?

I've flashed back to stock, one click rooted, installed (and paid for) ROM Manager, copied 2.2 b4 to internal SD, flashed clockwork recovery, rebooted, used ROM Manager to install 2.2 b4. everything looks good, except all of the exchange problems mentioned before are still happening.

Pick a contact, you get someone else. Reply to or forward an email, it only includes the original body of text.

DG still working on that, or have I done something wrong?
[Captivate Android Development] cheetablaze:
Could somebody else confirm that sending mms is a no go for beta 4 please? It looks like I maybe waiting in line for beta 5 if this isn't an at&t issue.

- DG + Cappy + Froyo = The best 3some ever!
[Captivate Android Development] cruiserbax:
I noticed that someone posted a work around for exchange by pushing the email apk from the 2.2 galaxy tab firmware? is the browser memory leak a result of the browser version and if so could I just push the browser from the tab firmware? hell I'll just go ahead and try........ though I have not really noticed this lag in the browser while using flash sites like the daily show and stuff so not sure exactly why I am trying this, anyway I guess I had a reason in mind when I started asking this dumb question so off I go to try it!

I know this question has been answered before. I've been searching the thread for a couple of hours yet to no avail.

I am coming from the Darky 3.0 ROM and want to get to Cog 2.3b3.

So far I have tried.

-Straight to 2.3b3.

-Master Clear

-Data Wipe and Clear Cache

-Flash to stock JF6

-Then to 2.3b3

I have no data!

Thankfully I made a nandroid backup before starting.

So, starting from the Darky 3.0 ROM, what steps should I take to get to 2.3b3?

Thanks!

If the following is any help:

During the first reboot after flashing cognition it has the yellow text zip across the screen.

After it tries to wipe data and clear cache, beneath it says that it failed in red.

It now works wonderfully. No FCs...super fast, snappy as hell. I wasn't sure so updated to all the betas. Removed SIM (had no ext SD) and also disabled Voodoo while installing. New phone so did not need TiBu.

Also I did all this on the Rogers phone. Love it.

This is a question for anyone who has updated to the newest rom v2.3b3. Any problems? Are you happy with how things are running? Is there a version you prefer over this one?
