And sorry DG im not tryin to take anything away from you. I know the time you have put into this. So i hope you dont take me wrong. But there is just so much YOU can do without the source. And it seems no one really knows that. So they keep nit picking. So sorry man. I didnt mean any harm :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
Are you serious? That's awesome except I don't see anything after searching around?

Edit- apparently Google has been rolling this out slowly, only some people got these emails.

I did find a signup form here, though:

https://spreadsheets1.google.com/a/...mkey=dGdfTTA2eGhFT0c0SDVLXzMzMFNwUUE6MA#gid=0

Who knows if they approve it or even check the submissions.

And according to one post I found, it took them like three weeks to turn it onto his account. (One week to approve and two weeks to enable it).

I have just started to notice that switching in and out of airplane mode takes a long time for me... i actually use the feature quite a bit. It is taking me around 3 minutes to re-connect to ATT's network (Although it shows the signal bars after about 30 seconds, it takes a total of 3 minutes to get the "3G" symbol).

This could just be network problems on ATT's end. I have heard some rumors that their network sucks.;)

Is this true for anyone else?

Just flashed 2.2 for the first time last night.

I am coming straight from 2.1 and I just want put in my two cents.

Everything works awesome. I really cant get over the flash enabled browser. LOVE 2.2!!:)

Had a small issue while installing a metamorph theme (minimalistic v1.4), but I think I read somewhere people were having issues with the framework.res. I was able to sort it out after all and it looks great.

I know the I9000 froyo source code was just released, lets hope cappy froyo source code is coming soon.

Thank you DG.

Has anyone come across this error when trying to download an application from app brain:

"The requested item could not be found."

I'm not sure if this is an app brain problem or possibly related to AT&T market restrictions (thought that was built into 5.5 which I'm on now).

thanks for your help. Its just that in froyo sdcard is 'cp mnt/sdcard/filename /system/framework/' : atleast it was in my case but was not that hard to understand its just a file path !!!:p

Just FYI. I'm getting the random shutdowns again on Cog v2.2 b5.5. I can't explain it. On stock JF6 it was fine (only 1 shutdown), stock leaked 2.2 was fine too but horribly slow (also only 1 shutdown). Cognition is awesome but for some reason, my random shutdowns are back.

I'm on beta 6 now. I'll report back if I encounter the same random shutdowns on this version. Thanks.

Sorry if this has been repeated endlessly. I can't seem to find a thread for it. Is there a fix for the contacts being all screwed up in 2.2cog?
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
How did you restore your contacts? I noticed last night when I flashed my wife's that some of hers came up with the 555?555?5555 or something like that....I blamed it on her but I was still the one who had to go back and fix it..lol

Anyway I have not run into this before on any other rom/cog/stock so it was perhaps in something I did (a fluke of course) though I will not tell her that.
[Captivate Android Development] TexUs:
I don't.

If history is any market the i9000 won't work on Captivate that well at all.

So far, to be honest, all I've seen is modified versions of what Samsung has released. I've not really seen anyone port an i9000 to it or a strictly vanilla install at all.
[Captivate Android Development] phishie:
It's only happened randomly with a couple apps, I'll have to look back to see what they were. Otherwise App brain has worked flawlessly.

Took me a bit to find it since the FAQ page is under reference, but when I did, it was WOW, that is a simple fix. I play storm8 games and they require a unique deviceID; well since we all have the same one when running 2.2, the apps don't work. Your info gave me the tools I needed to get my deviceID back correct. Flashed back to JH7, grabbed my deviceID, went back to cog6 and now I have my apps back.
[Captivate Android Development] TheTodFather:
Have you ever used the reorient kernel? Had Hsupa? Well then it has been done to a great degree. IT may not be asop but it pretty damn close, damn touchwiz!! Plus with the i9000 you get a lot more features on the captivate that att breaks.
[Captivate Android Development] TheYar:
When you don't disable lagfix you get crazy things like short battery life.

LOL ok sort of kidding. Sudden rapid battery drain can be caused by a lot of things. Check here. I don't think it matters if you disable lagfixes or not before flashing in download mode, but you do need to remove any lagfixes before doing recover-mode flashing.

Adjust brightness by sliding top of screen.

So the one thing I have noticed different since flashing Beta 6 is that I can no longer slide my finger back and forth on the top of the screen to adjust brightness. I know I could do it with Eclair. Has this been removed from Froyo, or am I missing something? Searched and can't find anything about this, sorry if it's been answered before.

Right, thanks. I link joey's thread from mine, too. But recalibrating is just the beginning and is frequently not the solution. I've tried to provide a more comprehensive process that users should go through before reporting a possible battery drain (or lag) issue with a ROM.

Sorry, that wasn't really directed at you - I was actually that for the guy you quoted (couldn't find his original post), figured a re-cal would be the first and most simple thing to pursue.

Definitely worth checking out your really comprehensive battery use thread which should be used to compliment the recalibrate for sure. :cool:

[Captivate Android Development] othermark:
That's because it's in the datadata.img not the data.img :D

For those, like myself, who wish to just yank this out their nandroid datadata.img backup, use unyaffs to dump the files from datadata.img, and then use sqllite3 to read your android_id.

for example, (this is on my unix system ...)

$ cp /mnt/usb/myroms/jh7backup/datadata.img ~/android/unyaffs/
$ cd ~/android/unyaffs
$ mkdir datadata
$ cd datadata
$ ../unyaffs ../datadata.img
$ cd com.android.providers.settings
$ sqlite3 settings.db "select * from secure where name='android_id'"
412|android_id|XXXXXXXXXXXXXX

XXXXXXXXXXXXXX will be the hex code of your id.

HTH.
[Captivate Android Development] vunuts:
It still works, I still used it on mine. Worked when I had beta2/3/5.5/6. It's just not an instant dim as it was with eclair.

Make sure auto adjust is off.

Hold your finger on either side of the notification bar.

Wait about 2-5 seconds.

Slide your finger.

Works for me.

[Q] Updating to Cognition v2.2 B6 from B5

So, I tried to update by moving the file onto my phone and flashing it using ROM Manager, but I received a file check error. I have searched this forum and I understand it has to do with the fact ClockWorkMod is unsigned.

I understand that I have to flash back to a 2.1 stock ROM, then update to B6 using ROM Manager. So, I tried to download the "JH7 OTA Stock" from the Ponack dot net link (Designgears site) but also got the same file check error.

What am I doing wrong here? Is there another stock ROM that I should be using? Where can I find it?

Come to think of it, I have backed up my original ROM before I unlocked... Should I use that?

Sorry for the n00biness.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] Chief Beefalo:

[Captivate Android Development] zas0006:
From what I have read you can either flash to stock and use clockwork to load beta 6, or you can use ODIN and go from anything (2.1.6, stock, beta 5, etc) to beta 6.

Ah, thanks ODIN would probably be the easier thing to do then.

[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
battery life is much improved after recalibration and a full charge cycle...i also have a lagfix, but I can't say thats a contributing factor. I charge nightly and am currently at 66% and I was in the 10's this time yesterday. Everything I've tested works perfectly, including GPS. Haven't tested mobile AP or Exchange since I currently have no use for either.

I sent over some beer money last night. Keep up the good work!
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
This would be true if this was a beta test but it is a leaked version of firmware, not official and with no source code release you can only fix so much, so if you want a fix with the next release you're waiting on Samsung not DesignGears. You aren't testing ****, everyone wanted Froyo so bad we have it and still constant *****ing and whining.

I searched in the forum and could not find a definitive answer. I use the car home app and have it so it automatically opens once I turn on my bluetooth headset. On 2.2 Beta 5 it worked flawlessly. On Beta 6 I can't even get my headset to stay synced. At first I thought there was a conflict with my Tasker app but I've had the same set up for 2 months now. Then I thought it was the car home app but that's not it either. Other than that the remote sim activated thing is so annoying. I'm thinking just going back to Beta 5 or maybe just wait til the official INTL froyo makes its way into Beta 7 or something. Anyone have any suggestions?

I'm using beta 5.5 and I've noticed a couple of small issues with music. I don't know if they are related to cognition.

1) I don't seem to be able to connect anymore using MTP. I use media monkey and my previous mp3 player was using MTP so I kept using it for my Captivate. Now when I plug in the phone with USB and select connect as media device nothing happens. Not that big a deal, I just mounted as a storage device.

2) I don't see album art anymore. This could be because I had to switch from using MTP do just copying as mounted media and I don't have my sync settings set right in media monkey. So may not be a bug at all. The funny thing is that my album art stopped displaying before I tried syncing music again. I already had a full sd card full that I was using before upgrading.

3) Angry birds was not included in the ROM and I had to download from the market.

Great work on the ROM.

I'm currently on Cog 2.1.6 with the HSUPA kernel and tried to flash the new Unhelpful kernel through Clockwork recovery. It looks like it installs just fine and it even shows up under Kernel version in Settings. However, the baseband is still I9000UGJH2 which is from the HSUPA kernel. This leaves me with no voice even though I can make and receive calls; I just can't hear anything (and I suppose they can't hear me either). I've tried flashing all of the kernels posted for 2.1 but the baseband will always stay the same even though the Kernel version is updated. Flashing back to the HSUPA kernel will enable voice audio again. Any ideas?

edit: also disabled lagfix before flashing the kernels
[Captivate Android Development] BLWedge09:
This doesn't work for me. One app in particular I'm having trouble with is the newly release TweetDeck 1.0. I have been running beta versions for months, so I uninstalled the beta, searched for tweetdeck in the market and attempted to download. Sometimes it says that it downloads, but never installs. Other times it just hangs like it is downloading forever. When you download from the market, to what location does the file go? I'm curious as to whether or not it ever really downloaded...

Like the changes in 5.5 and 6 Beta from 2.1 Eclair, But I will say that I don't understand the big red letters stated "lagfix not needed" under FAQ

I was scoring 2297 with quadrant under 2.1 Eclair and v.1 lagfix and now I'm lucky if I crack 2000 with both beta 5.5 and 6 and that's with a lagfix, without it I scored 8XX under quadrant which is the same as I hit with Eclair 2.1 before lagfix

The fact is, if you are happy with lagfix, good for you.

Some like it, some dont. Quandrant has absolutely nothing to do with real-world-usage for the captivate, but if it makes you feel better to have it, that's great.

[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
Quadrant final scores are irrelevant, lagfix doesn't do that much, froyo doesn't lag, the lagfix is more of an i/o booster than a lag fixer, the lag comes from the touchwiz ui mostly not the low I/O speeds. In froyo I can get 1060 quadrant score without the lagfix, try running the test a couple times, you should see upper 900's up to about 1100.

Linpack shows the speed boost of the processor that froyo offers, the score jumps from about 8.5 to 13.7-14.5

No Files Found -> Trying to use Rom Mgr to restore 2.1

I wasn't sure if I should post here or in the ClockwordMod thread.

I was wanting to move back to 2.16, which I made a backup of before installing Froyo. the files are on my external SD card. I want to do another fresh install of Beta6.

When I boot to recovery and select the option to restore from the card, and browse to the directory where the BU files are, I get a message "No Files found".

I have double checked, and I have two different sets of files there. It sees neither one.

Is there something different I need to do based on the fact I'm on Froyo? I am on the Beta6 version of this ROM. I did a search on No File Found in ClockworkMOD, and didn't come up with anything.

Any ideas?
