ROM Manager

Does ROM Manager work with this version? Seems to me the CW flash is different.

I am not understanding the recovery and subsequent need of replacement of apks before going into recovery mode (which wipes out BW data and who knows what else)
[Captivate Android Development] toawkanavngthded:
awww.... i wonder what i did wrong.... i just restored everything too....

i hope i didnt do anything wrong in the process

Sorry, I meant when I plug my Captivate into the PC. It use to ask what I wanted to do, now it just mounts the two SDs and I have to turn it off manually.

I did go into USB Settings and tell it to ask me, but I don't think the setting is working.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Go to start/setting/applications and see what your USB settings are set to...

Look in the themes and apps forum for Bluetooth Launcher. Run it once from the app drawer on the handset and set it for Voice Search Recognition Activity. Then run it with the action button on your headset and you're good to go.

Gsm/wcdma/auto

What happened to the setting where you can choose GSM only/WCDMA Only/AUTO??? i liked changing it to GSM Only (Edge) on some parts of the day when i wasn't using heavy data to save battery life. Other than that, this rom runs great.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Are you using winap, our a similar music app. Some have auto mount in there settings. Changing settings has been the fix for others
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
GPS is still working great. :) Out hunting this morning and I got a lock in about 10sec. It was with in 20 meters.

I love the home screen for this rom. I would say keep this. :)

So far no issues. It is making me nice and happy. :D
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
From my experience using the *#2263# option from your keypad, or whatever app you used to change those settings, only works with HSUPA modems like the JG8 or JPP modems. The JI6 and JJ4 modems are automatically set.
[Captivate Android Development] ENZO1027:
So... I am a pretty extreme noob at this... However I like to tell myself that I am at least semi versed in this. Is it really as easy as the Cognition website says it is? Just using ROM Manager to flash my system to Froyo? There is a lot of talk over my head on this forum, and I would like the dummy's answer if possible! My phone is rooted as well, in case that would come up in questioning. Thank you all in advance!

Launcher2 still making problems

Launcher2 still making problems/lags especially on db writes. I uninstalled it and put back gtg's touchwiz. Now I have no problems.

I suggest reverting to touchwiz in the next release..
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
touchwiz lags too
[Captivate Android Development] aleadam:
That happens with stock 2.1 as well. I ended up using the yahoo mail app from market. I hate it, but I can get my email with wifi also...
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
I'm not seeing any lag....
[Captivate Android Development] daverup:
Thats the same error I had. I reflashed cognition, deleted the launcher pro dir on the sd, and installed launcher pro from the market. Then, and through 4 roms, launcher pro backup has worked fine for me.

I believe my problems with launcher pro backup were caused by using TiBu restores of launcher pro.
[Captivate Android Development] ghost77:
How about LauncherPro or ADW Launcher ?
[Captivate Android Development] toawkanavngthded:
well i ended up using k9 and its cool. i liked the stock android app cuz it was simple and all. havent tried the yahoo mail app. is it pretty good?

so when i flashed this rom, voodoo was not enabled?? i dont know what i did wrong... i plugged phone till 100%, powered off and charged till 100%, took out sim and sd card, flash clockwork mod and then install rom from sd and wipe data and cache. when it booted heard no voice and then realized i didnt have voodoo anywhere. could not find it through file manager as well... i mean my phone is awesome and all so ill see how things work without voodoo and if i need it ill just have to reflash.
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Quadrant starts db writes tests just after 1min, is like it doesnt have the capability of accessing it or something is delaying it (the score is still ~1600). I tested with launcher2 installed and uninstalled. When is uninstalled, everything is fine, when is installed, all is laggy, file manager, benchmarks, gallery...

Just personal experience.

[Captivate Android Development] Roof King:
I used UOT last night to install a circle battery running 2.3b6 with no problems. Copied the framework-res.apk to my SD card and uploaded it to UOT. They cooked my order, I downloaded, rebooted to clockwork recovery, flashed the zip from UOT, rebooted and the circle battery is there.

Did the same on the wife's Aria with no problems either.
[Captivate Android Development] iamcombat:
Not sure how the BLN works....do the push buttons stay lit all the time or do they blink? Would be great if they would blink.
[Captivate Android Development] zippox180:
I have been using zeam launcher. I love it.scrollable dock and 3 home screens very smith and works well on this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
worked fine for me too
[Captivate Android Development] wilsongis:
Have you looked at how much ram zeam uses? I tested out and it was using moure then launcher pro.
[Captivate Android Development] bravisha:
I tried, but for some reason OCLF doesnt work on Cog2.3 B6

I've noticed the same thing. I made a video a while back when there was a big debate about it. I have no doubt that this isn't a Cog thing, the non-lagfix examples in that video are still what I experience with any ROM or lagfix, except for any using OCLF. OCLF makes Touchdown zoom, for whatever reason.

Can we just disable voodoo and put OCLF on instead?[/QUOTE]

GPS

Install and everything went crazy until I went back to JF6. (Forgot to backup android ID, dangit!) but I notice that the gps is back to very inaccurate again. Going back to 2.3b3
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
There's something about this CWM stuff we don't understand. I'm wondering if it has to do with the newer version of Voodoo.

In the end, I'll never count on a nandroid backup again.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
:eek: Some people so eager to be part of the incrowd junior mods. Interesting they don't read either.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Its been a pain, and never worked. If fact, you may find some earlier posts of mine where I point to another app that will respond to the BT keky. But, since this version of COG, Google Voice dial does not use the contacts. I've been unsuccessful with installing older Google Voice and make it work, so I am now suspecting it is relate to this ROM. DG is aware, and if anything can be done, I'm sure he will get it covered.

But native voice dial via 2.2, he has already indicated it will not be fixed until the official release, whenever that is.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Hmmm....wow. As much as this has been discussed, I've never seen or heard that. I'll give it a try and post back later.

[EDIT]

Oh, that is the app I was referring to in post above.

Again, Google Voice is worthless for voice dial on this rom; and Vlingo is not much better.
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
DG, I don't know if this was mentioned, but the robotic female voice is a bit out of sorts. Instead of it saying "converting to blah blah blah", it begins with "step 1" then "step 2" then the normal voice notifications as on previous Voodoo ROMs. Kinda had me confused as to what was actually taking place.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I believe this is referenced in the change log. This version of voodoo converts a couple aspects of your phone thus the ***** had more to say
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
That's the way it is now..It is the new Voodoo and it is doing multiple conversions....:D
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Nope, because I installed from market.

Hmm....but, I may have restored data. I'll try the pain of re-creating everything. The LP restore isn't much help anyway, because the work is really in putting all the darned stuff back on the varioius home screens that won't restore. (I wonder why that is.)
[Captivate Android Development] old Tech:
I'm in the same boat. Hate to also ask here, because I read this thread like a madman and I know I've seen reference to how to get it working, but I can't find it now.

Do we just keep reflashing 2.3b6 until the voodoo starts working on the initial boot?

Thanks in advance.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Reflash the rom
[Captivate Android Development] jsamuels:
Deleted I was grumpy
[Captivate Android Development] old Tech:
So i've reflashed again. Same thing - ROM installs nicely, but there are no voodoo install voices. No voodoo folder on the sd card.

i noticed a line that pops up during the install, after the data wipe and before the install of the ROM. states something like..."no app2sd found....skipping ext_sd format". Is this relevant?
[Captivate Android Development] JoelParke:
Info for Bluetooth search

I found some useful (sort of) info here:

I hope this info is helpful. I WISH this was fixed!

Ok this is entirely weird for me. I've even tried making some tests before posting but I guess that's it.

I cannot login into Twitter using the official app in Cog. I've had this issue on 2.3b4 and on 2.3b6 both with version 1.0.5 of Twitter. A friend told me it was an issue with Twitter 1.0.5 and FroYo but I tried googling about it and nothing came up.

I even found a Twitter 1.0.0 and that logged without any issues.

Anyone else experiencing this?
[Captivate Android Development] JoelParke:
FC issue - in all the ROM's I have tested

Thought it might be helpful to report a consistent FC that I have seen in all the ROMs I have run. Currently on 2.3b6. Under Kindle, after reading for a while, hitting Home, caused Kindle to crash. I am running ADW as my launcher.

Unfortunately, this crash only happens after reading for a WHILE and not immediately.
[Captivate Android Development] Sgt_Bilbo:
I'm really interested in moving from 2b4 to 2b6, but I've grown to really like the TouchWiz interface. I know DG removed it from his latest beta and I'm curious if anyone knows a way to re-install the TouchWiz UI after upgrading to 2b6?

Forgive me if this has been asked before, but this thread has gotten so long that its sometimes hard to find stuff.

thanks for any info!
[Captivate Android Development] TheYar:
BT voice dialing works fine for me on 236 using Bluetooth Launch and Voice Actions.

However, it does seem to me that, for whatever reason, 236 is the most problematic flash of cog in a long time. It's the only cog I've ever had problems with, and I've flashed 236 five different ways now and still have all sorts of problems.

When disabling voodoo in beta 6 does it take an extremely long time to boot the phone up the first time? I seem to be stuck on the world phone screen....if it doesn't boot I'm going back to stock and doing a lag fix and I'll be happy with that
[Captivate Android Development] norcal einstein:
It takes awhile, especially if you have a lot of apps installed. Let the phone convert...it will finish eventually...
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
DG commented on this. If you are trying to disable the lagfix and you get hung up on the at&t screen pull battery, then power back on. It should disable on reboot. Search the thread before you panic, usually your question has already been answered
[Captivate Android Development] iamcombat:
do you really expect someone to read 1000 pages to find something so random as that?
[Captivate Android Development] iamcombat:
Hmmm

Not really sure at all what just happened but I pulled the battery like stated and the phone booted up and voodoo was disabled....but apps are missing and it reverted from Launcher Pro back to the Laucher2 UI....i tried to click the market app and it says it's not installed....

Time to go back to stock

[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
Have you tried to reflash from the stock rom then flash the latest cog? I think the "no app2sd found skiping" thing is normal if you don't have any apps installed on sd card and i get that all the time and i don't see an problem.

[Captivate Android Development] zas0006:
I am having the same issue. At least once a day. Sometimes 4-5 times a day. It seems to get worse the longer I run on battery. If I am on a charger all day, it doesn't randomly reboot. Very odd. I love the rom and I have had no other issues. Before I get lambasted for being a noob, I have flashed many times, and always flash back to stock if issues occur. I have this issue even after flashing back to stock, flashing to 2.3b6 and not restoring ANYTHING from TiBu at all to rule out issues caused by bad data/apps. If DG or anyone else has any tests that they would like me to run to help nail down this issue, I will be more than happy to oblige. And even if no one knows why, I will still keep using the rom. It is that awesome.

Big thanks to all who answered my novice questions about this rom. I successfully installed the lastest Cog last night without a hitch. Everything installed smoothly, voodoo voices, etc. Loving the speed, foyo, non-market access, etc. Can't wait to tinker some more :) DG your the man!!!

Biggest thing I have noticed is just runs butter smooth compared to JH7. Everything glides along so nicely and makes navigating the UI more enjoyable.
[Captivate Android Development] IceMonkey82:
I used to have this random shutdown issue very consistently on the stock rom, then I flashed to one of DesignGears original SRE roms and the problem went away. Then I flashed an overclock rom and had this problem at least 6-8 times a day. I then flashed the cognition froyo roms (practically all of them minus the vibrant variants) and have not had the issue since *knock on wood*
[Captivate Android Development] ethered2:
Gotta just say, I don't post much but you can see I've been a forum member for a while. The Captivate is my first Android phone and I've flashed Cog thru a number of permutations; I have never had one single problem. All I can say is I read and research a lot before I do anything. This thread has become so congested by redundant questions and topics that it has become difficult to read.

DG thanks for all the hard work you put into this ROM I will keep updating as long as you do!

It becomes hard to identify actual potential issues. Most of the repeat post are user errors and have little to do with the rom.

Maybe try to flash an older build with the older voodoo.

Please list the steps you are doing, as far as to disable the lag fix. If this is a true issue with the version of voodoo a work around should be figured out

In short, yes. I did have to go through this many times to get everything to work. The first time the voodoo worked, the modem did not. Finally, all is good. Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Well, I've got lots of strange stuff going on. I may try reflashing one more time.

Lastest is this, and I've seen others with similar, and more problematic issues with this: disabling lagfix.

I have no put disable-lagfix folders in the Voodoo folder to disable it. Both times, I reboot, do NOT have a long boot cycle, and the disable-lagfix directory is gone. I am using Root Explorer to do this.

Whatcha think?

[EDIT]

I am looking through the Init.log. I find a line that says this:

+ test 16gb = fascinate

I don't know if a + means comment out or not. But I find it interesting that 'fascinate' is in the Captivate Voodoo log.

How do I make 2.3b6 Unlock action to not vibrate everytime?

Hi DG,

After flashing 2.3b6 by flashing back to stock first, everything went well, except the Lock screen always vibrates when unlocking. Is there any way to stop it from doing that? I looked in the settings, and could not figure it out!

Also, I kind of like the original Samsung glass lock screen better... Is there any way I can get that back??

Please Help!

Thanks,

Hey DG, just a little token of my appreciation for another great rom! Running 2.3 b6 for a few now and it's really great. GPS was good but I put the jpiter v006 files on and it's now great.

[Captivate Android Development] pyrplhaze:
this rom is freakin awesome.

I had a bit of trouble with the first install...phone wasn't connecting to the network (I saw others had a similar problem) So, I went back to stock, then back to b6...all went swimmingly. haven't plugged in since the flash, and it's been 1 day, 5 hrs and some change, and i'm sitting at 20% battery.

I almost freaked and posted my issue with the phone not working, then I READ ;) and realized it's nothing to get worried about :) I've been an android user for a little over 3 months now, and I gotta wonder why it took me so long to drop the iphone.....

For email and messages, you do it through settings in those apps. Just change the notification ringtones within those apps. Now for stock voicemail, I'm not really sure. I haven't used stock voicemail in months, so I'm not sure if notification sounds can be accessed in the stock voicemail.
