I can tell you...from the past 2 hours...trying to get from 2.16 Cognition to V2.2 beta...does NOT work. lol.

Tried everything, I had to go back to stock using Odin and now am going to upgrade directly to 2.2...I think. :P

anyone having issue with Texting time stamps on this latest build?

yes, also use mybackup pro for all data backups including txts and root data for apps

Cannot do it yet, no kernal source for the OC and im thinking the same for Xtra RAM

hi

with this rom BETA9.1.2 will work to wcdma 850???
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I have always flashed back to stock and went from there rather than update using ROM Manager. I am running 9.0, I assume if I disable lag fix and flash with ROM Manager it will enable Voodoo again right? Any downside to doing it this way? Ever since I have always flashed back to stock and did a master clear, I have had zero problems.....I had a problem before and it was hell....want to avoid it so I want to be clear.

Do we have to disable LagFix to CW this 9.1.2 or can we flash over it as it is/

I forgot and flashed without disabling, no problems so far. Doing my TiBu right now. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] chrisd000111:
i forgot to disable also and no problems

although how do you disable it, i heard theres a file in the voodoo folder but mine doesnt have a disable file
[Captivate Android Development] fiendiish:
you have to create a file called "disable-lagfix" then reboot. It will do it's thing to revert back to rfs
[Captivate Android Development] JPxM0Dz:
Create a file in voodoo folder "disable-lagfix" , reboot, it will take awhile, then flash new rom
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
You need to create a new folder in the "Voodoo" folder named "disable-lagfix" and then reboot.

Project Voodoo Documentation

You create a file or folder called disable lagfix in the /sdcard/voodoo folder and then reboot.
[Captivate Android Development] smurfgod:
Hope I didn't do anything wrong, but I just flashed from the old beta 9 to the newest beta 9 thru clockwork and its running really nice. Haven't had any FCs. Thanks man. Will be donating.

Edit: Do I have to disable the voodoo lag fix with adding the folder? And I'm asking if it is required.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
OK so if you insert the disable folder, will the new flash overwrite that folder and eliminate the disable lagfix folder?

For those who installed without disabling is it possible voodoo will not be working? I ask becasue I installed 9.1 over 9.0 and it see6med sluggish so I went back to JH6 and cleaned everything out and installed 9.1.1.

Looking at 9.1.2 I don;t see a fix for anything I am having issue with I will wait for 9.1.3 tomorrow LOL
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
I am havinga few small issues after a few days of Beta 9.

I went to download some apps and they whould not show dowlloaded. When I checked status they show paused. I did not pause them. It took 3 reboots to get them to download fully.

My contacts from my SIM all went away. They did not show in my contract. I had to reload them. Before I did that I checked my text messages and my contacts showed up there. I am not sure why they where showing in my text area. They where not showing when I opened Contacts or when I went to place a call.

My battery life is not that great now. I goes to 70% very fast. After that it starts to slow down.

That is what I have so far for issues to report.

GOT IT

got it using meta thank u so much even has more stuff u can add on the post thank u again finaly I appreciate it
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Yup, a extensionless file called disable-lagfix:

adb shell

su

cd /sdcard/Voodoo

echo Booger > disable-lagfix

reboot

Drink a beer and wait for the reboot to finish:

adb shell

mount | grep data

make sure data is rfs instead of ext4.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
Disabling Lagfix:

1. Use My Files, Root Explorer, or whatever.

2. Tap on the Voodoo folder.

3. Tap Menu softkey.

4. Tap "Create Folder"

5. Name the folder "disable-lagfix" (no quotes)

6. Reboot (this will take a while; be patient)

Lagfix is now disabled

To enable lagfix again:

1. Delete the "disable-lagfix" folder you created.

2. Reboot (this will take a while; be patient)

Lagfix is now enabled

Contacts won't load up for me on 9.1.2. Anyone else having this problem? I thought it was fixed...

Edit: Nevermind, it's working now. Wasn't loading up early.
[Captivate Android Development] bjjere:
Is there an easier way to update the rom using the technique from the Tayutama thread??

2) Download Captivate zip file to the phone

3) Download Clockwork Recovery Zip

5) Backup your applications, data, etc., and save the backups to your PC/laptop;

6) Restore your phone to Stock and format your SD card (this is not required, but seems to get the best results);

7) Rename the Clockwork Recovery Zip file to update.zip;

8) Copy files to your phone's internal SD card;

9) Turn your phone off;

10) Turn it back on in to Recovery mode (volume up & down + power, release power when AT&T splash screen appears);

11) Select Reinstall Packages; If you get to the Clockwork Recovery menu screen, move to step 12, else select Reinstall Packages again;

12) Select Install Zip From Sdcard;

13) Select Choose Zip From Sdcard;

it seems rooting and then downloading/installing CWR is more work than just copying the CWR update.zip to your phone and launching recovery cwr and selecting the cog zip you want to load... Will this work??
[Captivate Android Development] tiger4j:
Might not have to wait too long. I think the guys over at the vibrant forums have just about got 2.2 straightened out. From what krylon posted "sent from my 2.2 house of kolor fusion," I would think they already have it, but said they were having an all night coding session tomorrow night, I guess to add more goodness into their ROM. DG's been keeping up with them, so I'm sure Cognition will be galloping along at 1400 and 1600 in no time. :)

Just picked up my phone and it was dead.....Repalced the battery and it went into "safe mode"

Rebooted and went into prolauncher but none of the widegts loaded.....

Any ideas?

Yes. And why not just leave it there and save more steps? I see no reason for reformatting or wiping the sdcard partition of your internal card unless you run into an a rare issue that is causing problems

Running 9.1.1

I f#$@ing love it! Managed to get this thing going with little trouble (originally flashed 9.1 with odin to overwrite a rogers i896 that was put on by original owner).

BUUUUUUTTTT, my downloads are terrible over 3g!!! Speedtest results too!

I was poking around the service menu and saw that GSM/WCDMA was selected (I think it was supposed to be WCDMA preferred instead) but I doubt that has anything to do with it.

Nothing to do with PRLs or anything is it? I'm on bell mobility.

Is it something I can correct or am I gonna have to flash to something else? :(
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Still on Beta 9, but pushed the Clock to fix Timer, I am SO happy with it! I cant wait for beta 10 or 9.2 :P flash fever coming on!

[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
hey dg, i know you briefly spoke about this earlier to someone (not sure what exactly he wanted to do) about using your kernel and you told him no. but ive been working literally for like 48 hrs straight trying to port an i9000 rom that some people that were using it before asked me to do so people would not have to deal with the jpm modem. i did get it just about done on atimn's kernel, but its too unpredictable. i dont want to release that and make problems for people. i flashed about 50 different times, and it seemed every time something different happened(to be expected for a kernel that was just put up for testing reasons and just so we could have it). i flashed yours just to try to isolate whether the problems were kernel related or file related, and yours works perfectly.

it would be nice if i could use it, but wouldnt directly affect me(besides lost hours and hair pulled out) im doing this more for the community that wanted this and absolutely all credit would go to you. hell id even link to your paypal page or whatever you want.

i would have sent this as a PM but you dont allow it so i had to post here. please let me know either way. :)

Don't know what's in it, but installed it anyway since I was just in the process of recovering from a Rogers nandroid restore gone bad. Restoring apps...
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
So 2.13 has a new clockwork mod. I presume this is the one that understands ext4 that DG referenced thus eliminating the need to disable the lag fix prior to flashing.

Is it a seperate recovery from clockwork, or does it replace the update.zip on my SD?

I'm currently on Cognition 6... can I just update with the Odin method in download mode or do I need to go back to stock first? If I need to go back to stock, do I go back to Froyo stock or 2.1 stock?

Thanks in advance. Looking forward to updating to the latest Cog.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
You do not "have to" go back to stock although some will say it is a best practice. Reverting the stock means stock 2.1 not froyo. You can directly go from beta 6 to whatever beta you want, but some believe you will get a cleaner install by reverting to stock

I updated from 2.17 to 2.2 Beta 9.1.3 via ClockWork... and I have no memory.. Internal SD Unavailable, External SD Unavailable and Internal Phone 0.0... is this because of the LAG fix on 2.17? Will try flash to stock then back to 2.2 Beta 9.1.3 again to see if the issue remains...

Can't wait to see how she handles after this latest ROM update :)

DG, thanks again....
[Captivate Android Development] IceMonkey82:
Does this mean we can flash this over Voodoo without a problem or continuing from that ROM forward we won't need to disable Voodoo?
[Captivate Android Development] Atokade:
The text message time issue is not due to the Cognition ROM, it's because of how Rogers/FIDO do a timestamp adjustment in addition to your phone doing a timestamp adjustment.

You can either have your timezone changed, or download SMS time fix from the market.

Had the same problem myself!

Rotation Stopped

I do not think the ROM has anything to do with this, but my rotation has stopped. But thought I would ask if anyone has experienced this. I'm on 8.1, and have been for a few days.

I'm suspecting I need to exchange my phone. I'll post a query about this specific topic in the general support thread.

Beta 9.1.1 has not been good to me....

Last night the phone died after 3 hours after a full battery, replaced the battery with one from the charger at 100% and it booted into safe mode. No widgets working. I left the phone on all night for about 7 hours and this morning I hit the soft key to wake it up and it rebooted...(not into safe mode this time) but the battery had 30% after 7 hours of standby..Laucher Pro force closed....

I loaded 9.1.1 from 8.1 then 9.0 which had no issues from Stock using master clear.....Any ideas?

AOSP MMS

Does anyone know how to install the CognitionEnvironment AOSP mms app onto Cognition2.2? I gave it a try but it seems like it's not that straight forward because the app isn't "signed" (whatever that means).

Ran Quadrant...got 1256 Disabled lagfix got 970 I guess thats why I did not see a major improvement. although I am not a big believer in synthetic benchmarking, I did it to see if lagfix was disabled as I am going to give beta 9.1.3 a try. Beta 9.1.1 has not been good to me........Restarts, went into Safe Mode..Launcher Pro was force stopping, batterylife seemed to be a lot worse.

I've read through the wiki, but i'm out of the country and I'm on a painfully slow Internet connection, so I can't bring myself to read through the hundreds of pages of replies.

Oppps, tried to remove this today and it did not work. I forgot to add a ";" in the find command. I updated it. Removal is:

cp -rp /dbdata/data /data

rm -r /dbdata/data

exit

exit

adb reboot

If you want a really slow phone, take Voodoo off and this. OMG it sucks. It is a good thing it will be like that for only about 5 more minutes, then I will flash beta 9.1.3.

Not a stupid question. Like if the monitor isn't working, check to see if it is plugged in. Interesting how in Tech Support that has really happened.

Anyway, yes, I'm sure that is not the problem. Also checked any programs I may have installed that may have an option to fiddle with that. Have also shutdown and pulled battery.

I guess my next steps may be to go to stock and see if it returns. Getting close to time to do that and upg to latest beta anyway.

Shouldn't be able too, 9.1.3 adds that ability. 9.1.4 you will be able to...

Maybe it was just my phone but zmod messed up my phone bad and it wouldn't let me reload it after reflashing. I had to go back to JF6 many times before I said screw it and waited for voodoo. But I will say this, voodoo seems a bit buggy on 9.1.2, everything is working but it just seems...laggy compared to before.

[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
9.1.3 is blazing fast for me.

idk if it is because I flashed to 2.1 stock then master cleared and flashed 9.1.3 via odin but something made it faster. the boot up time is at least 50% faster then it was on beta 9. I have all the same apps and data so not sure what changed it but im very happy with it.

not a single complaint about beta 9.1.3. cant comment on battery life yet as I have only been running it for 2 hours.

edit: forgot to mention I also took out external sd and sim card before going one click to stock and master clearing. left it out until after the first boot of beta 9.1.3.
