I'm running Windows 7 and this is more a matter of curiosity but, I installed the drivers using the normal UAC escalation and I never run Odin as Admin. Is there a specific reason I should run Odin as Admin? Sometimes, I'll flash a ROM that I had previously used and worked fine the first time (or second, or third ...), but the next time it will be 'interesting'. I'll have random issues I had never seen before and I'll have to start over again.
[Captivate Android Development] whiteguypl:
Installing/running as admin is more of a way to make sure everyone is doing the same thing rather then something that's needed.

Hey DG with Perception Build 6 just coming out when is the next version of Cognition coming?

So when can we see the next update to Cognition?
[Captivate Android Development] chrisliphart:
I'm looking forward to the next build too, but please don't change the headset settings! This is one of the few ROMs I've found that wired headset controls work, and it keeps me coming back. :)
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
+1. This is why I didn't make the switch as well.
[Captivate Android Development] dalewest:
+1 x2... ditto. Actually, tried Bacon just in case, but my headset didn't work, so I came back here.

What should I do?

How to Unlock Cognition v2.3b6

I'm using Cognition v2.3b6 and have a need to unlock the phone. Is there anyway I can unlock it without going back to stock. Will going back to stock and running some unlock utility work or is the unlock information is wiped forever?
[Captivate Android Development] ed116:
hey i dont want to seem pushy or anything? but will there be a new update? and will it be themed? i for one dont like the stock feel of android :) let me know im just asking not criticizing :p
[Captivate Android Development] Jirv311:
Technically Cog is themed from stock Android....a lot. Besides, if you can flash a ROM, you can theme it. :D
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
I rather apply my own theme. Just saying. The more AOSP look the better, IMO.

Hi i just want to ask guys if im going to backup my cog b6 by using rom manager do i have to turn off the vodoo first or i can back up without turning it off?
[Captivate Android Development] theMaDHakkeR:
Hi,

I have a stupid question regarding flashing this rom. For the Rogers Captivate I896 going from stock 2.1 UXJI2 w/ z4root and OCLF:

Can it just be flashed from CWM once OCLF has been disabled?

Does the modem have to be changed or anything else done? Or just save the Rogers APN settings in 2.1 stock and then use CWM to flash to this and restore the APN with titanium.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] daverup:
I have had very poor luck with backups after 2.3b4.

On 2.3b5.1 I had one backup work using the nandroid backup option in CWM with lagfix disabled.

On the same rom, I had a rom manager backup fail with lagfix enabled.

On 2.3b6 I initially had a nandroid backup work with lagfix disabled. A week later, I again attempted to disable the lagfix to backup, and lost /data and all apps.

I've gone back to 2.3b4 for now, where the 2e recovery works well and the lagfix disable seems reliable.

I'm sure this works for some, it just isn't reliable for my use.
[Captivate Android Development] caleb4992:

!? Problems with SIM and 3G Access !?

:confused:

I just upgraded from stock 2.1 to Cognition 2.3b6

Everything seems to work - EXCEPT I am STUCK in Airplane Mode and do not have access to 3G. When I try to activate 3G in Wireless and Network settings / Mobile Networks, I get the following error: "Insert SIM card: Insert SIM card to access network services"

My SIM card is still in the phone, and has been working just fine prior to the upgrade from 2.1 to 2.2...

Ideas? Anything I need to do to trigger the phone now to reconnect to AT&T?

Thanks in advance!
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Pull the apks out of the 2.3b3 rom and add them to your /system/app directory. Reboot and they should be available. You usually can't just "install" them without them being in that directory. I have Carhome working on 2.3 b6 using the above method. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Most likely the modem didn't flash right...either reflash the rom or just the modem.
[Captivate Android Development] koreancanuck:
Turn off your phone, take out the battery, pull your sim card out and back in again, place battery in, turn your phone back on. If it doesn't recognize the sim card, try again.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Post this in the Perception thread. LOL, pull the battery, reflash to stock and try again. In other words, start over from the beginning. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] hijax2001:
No luck. Tried battery/SIM technique suggested...

Hey this may sound stupid but I had the same problem, when at the home screen press and hold the power button till you get the shut down menu, go to the data network mode and hit it, it should turn you on, I know its basic but thats what mine was. Good luck
[Captivate Android Development] HeRmAyNe-MuNsTeR:
If your using a kernel w/ a i9000 ROM then you will have problems w/ the headphone jack in a call. Its a kernel issue that a lot of people have had.

RIP?

Doesn't seem like we'll see any more Cog ROM's huh?
[Captivate Android Development] torred:
nope....put this baby to rest......I wish the vibrant rom was redone...2.4
[Captivate Android Development] Jirv311:
If you still have the Cog .zip on the sdcard, reboot back into Clockwork recovery and install the zip again. You don't really NEED to go back to stock first. I just had this happen yesterday and reflashing fixed it.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
In response to a previous inquiry as to whether this rom was done being updated;

Nice, and yet your still on this thread. :rolleyes:

If you're using Cog 2.4, there is a reason he switched back to the 2.3 beta naming and got rid of the vibrant rom.

[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
yes that would be it
[Captivate Android Development] klcross87:
i'm not quite sure on how i 'replace' it though.

i figured i just move the new .apk to my sdcard, copy it, and then paste over the exisiting .apk but that is obviously not working.

could ya give a brother a hand and explain how exactly i replace it? :confused:

appreciate the help :D

I've heard of random shutdowns, but random reboots?

Hi... I've been running Cognition 2.4.1 for almost a month now... It's been working great but starting a couple of days ago, it started to behave strangely I've got random reboots a couple of times... I haven't done anything strange with it... no setCPU no undervolting no overclocking nothing like that...

Any idea what could be causing it?

FYI: The last reboot I had was while transfering files through swiFTP

Thanks

Someone could do theatering usb? because I do not work. 5.5 Cognition
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I still dont know what issues the lagfix causes but the bottom line is its DG's ROM and he can include/not include whatever he wants. Its pretty simple to download OCLF from the market for those that want it. Just like its simple to uninstall whatever is included you dont want. Unlike ATT, what we are presented with we can control and that is great. Anything I have to do to modify this ROM to fit my individual taste is far better an end product than what I would have without his and others efforts on Cognition....it is awesome.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I tested both MobileAP and USB tethering under the wireless menu and both worked fine for me. I am not using 2.2 beta5.5, but rather 5 so I cant say for 5.5. I also tested making calls while connected and it worked fantastic. I did do a master clear after flashing back to stock ROM this time and I did have less issues. In fact, the only issue I have had is the "remote sim activated" which I still havent seen an impact from...just an annoyance its there.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
if you use ODIN, it doesnt matter if you are rooted, have OCLF, or if you are running some random german rom.

ODIN will wipe out any OCLF you have, as well as any apps you have installed.

Ok.. I have a problem..

Thanks for any help
[Captivate Android Development] topshelf95:
+1

Can we stop talking about it? If you want Lag Fix, take 2 minutes and install it from the market, if not, don't. It works for some, not for others. It's ok. It is something that you can get on your own quite easily and you don't have to keep trying to convince others that it is or isn't needed.
[Captivate Android Development] CPeterson:
I stand corrected. I hadn't seen an N1 vs GS comparison yet, and jumped to some incorrect conclusions. You should get that added to the Cog wiki.
[Captivate Android Development] jokerier:
This thread is 290+ pages. It's got a large ammount of useful information, yes. But the folks complaining about people asking for help because they tried something that they are not familiar about how to do things is pretty rediculous. Those 290+ pages are filled with alot of useless crap. Things that don't relate to the release.

Also, those asking for someone to search. I tried that. I asked a question because I TRIED to search and the search is crap when you don't know what you are searching for.

For example. No one has a length of time that ODIN should do what. there are no logs. No list of time to complete a master clear. Last night I had a problem with communication on my phone to my PC that I did fix eventually. The question I had and was searching for "time master clear", "Master clear", or finally "Length to complete master clear". Also any derivitive of trying to find the answer returned a bunch of junk to read through.

I don't know who in the world has time to read the 290+ pages of stuff in this thread, but it's sometimes tough to find the answer you are looking for. Hey, I appreciate the fact that someone has developed a way to load your phones and make it nice. I appreciate the 2.2. I don't appreciate the folks who haven't developed (you are not DG, stop *****ign) anything harping on the newbs like me who are just not as familiar with the phones and loading as they are asking for help.

So back off bub. If you don't like it, don't read the question or don't answer it. But it doesn't help anyone to gripe at someone for asking for help. That doesn't build any sense of community and damn sure doesn't help donating to it.
[Captivate Android Development] ranova:
OCLF isnt hard to install after the fact, since its in the market. On the other hand, if it was Voodoo, itd be a lot harder for the average user to install it ontop of a custom rom.

If youre fine without a lagfix + froyo, then so be it. But a lot of powerusers can definitely tell and SEE the difference in a lot of the apps - not just loading, but usability. I could care less about quadrant scores, but when I want to tear my hair off reading emails in touchdown, its worth it for ME to do somesort of lagfix.
[Captivate Android Development] jokerier:
Try to find a different PC. Possibly a Windows XP box to use it on.

Or try a different port on your PC. I had to plug into the back, not a hub (front usb) to get it to work.
[Captivate Android Development] airtower:
mmm german por.....ROM's! :D thanks though, I'd rather everything on the phone be nuked. Time to start fresh, my phone randomly shut down last night on the charger and required a battery pull to start and now for some reason beautiful widgets is displaying a weather animation over every app.

nevertheless....is a master clear recommended? I only have windows on a dusty laptop buried somewhere in my closet, so I've never actually used ODIN.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
the problem with this statement is that those of us that know what the **** we are doing (we actually read a lot before jumping into this ****), have to read through all the bs that people post because they are too lazy to read themselves. Just because all the info is not in this thread does NOT mean its not in these forums somewhere. everyone wants to be spoonfed and the people that are genuinely interested in bug finding/fixing/beta testing have to wade through piles of posts that mean nothing to the project. its people that dont want to take the time to read through DIFFERENT threads in the developers forum to understand how each tool works. did you know that the one click ODIN has its own ****ing thread? how about asking your master clear questions in that thread instead of cluttering up this one with it? or how about all the hundreds of people asking how to install when there is a damn link on the first post with a WIKI that has FAQs on it? guess what a FAQ is.

the issue with laziness of the gimme generation is that they dont want bother taking the time to learn anything. they just want a walkthrough or someone to just do it for them. they dont want to learn what commands they are putting in, they just want it to work. if you want it to just work, go stock and leave flashing and **** alone. its not for you.
[Captivate Android Development] extasy88:
Eh, this is my only box to tell you the truth.. it's a notebook. I've used this computer to flash my Captivate multiple times (3 in all lol) and had no flaws whatsoever. But I did reformat my computer recently. Put an unattended win7x64 on it.. Could that be the problem?
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
I agree there is a ton to look through, but the answers are usually there...if you can find them as you already know. What I found helpful when I had my worst situation was starting a different thread in the Q&A section and I got some very good and specific help on my exact situation. This thread moves way too fast at times to keep up with what has been posted so that may be an option for you in the future. It is very frustrating, I know, becuase I am learning as I go too.
[Captivate Android Development] jokerier:
Thank you gocats7. I'm not one posting about all the crap and asking a **** ton of stupid questions. I asked one but feel like defending the other noobs out there. There isn't an answer for what I was asking. It wasn't until I went a different way to find what I needed (no it wasn't the USB thing I posted about later). That was my point Pirateghost. Take a ****ing chill pill and quit trying to be an asshole by filling this thread with more useless **** *****ing about how high and mighty you are for knowing how to do everything.

edit: guess my defending noobs (as I am one here too), doesn't help anything. whatever...

How-to tether... it actually changes

You may need the Samsung drivers on your PC/laptop first. See this post and look under "Drivers.

Make sure you're actually on the Cognition ROM. I know my ROM update didn't take at all the first few times I tried because I didn't do it right. Settings -> About phone and look at the Build number. Should say Cognition.v2.2.Beta5.5.UCJI6

Turn off USB debugging. (Settings -> Applications -> Development)

For Eclair only (2.1, not Froyo 2.2): Make sure USB is set to "Ask on Connection." (Settings -> Applications -> USB Settings) Or, go ahead and set it to "PC Internet" here if you always want to tether.

Hook the phone to the PC/laptop with a real microUSB data cable. Some cables are power-only and won't do data. The one that came with the phone is good.

For Eclair only: Select "PC Internet" from the choices that come up, if you haven't already set that as the default.

You're done.

For Froyo only: Ignore anything that comes up when you connect. Home-button out of there and back to your home screen. Then go to Settings -> Wireless and Network -> Tethering and turn it on. There are also widgets you can download to turn this on/off.

You're done.

You should get a new network adapter in your network connections on the PC/laptop.
[Captivate Android Development] fritzgerald:
torrin66,

Thanks for the input. I realize now I should have clarified a little more. I get audio perfectly if I'm using Pandora or any other music/media app. Where I lose the audio is when trying to use it for phone calls. With 2.1 I get phone calls over the speakers fine. I think I remember reading somewhere in the forums that in 2.2 the aux port was modified to work as Line-out. My thoughts on cutting the headphones is to possibly make the phone "think" it's using the stock headphones when in fact it'll be routed over the speakers. I'll cut and splice them at some point, hopefully after work today, and see what happens.
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
It may be your headphones, I am using headphones that didn't come with the phone because all music sounds like it's coming through a tin can, I have tried two pairs of headphones, the stock ones, and BT, all works fine for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
so its ok for you to fill it with more useless **** trying to 'make a stand' for all the noobs out there?

please. all the ****ing info that anyone needs is within these forums. people need to learn how to read and look up this **** themselves. read about what problems could arise while you are trying to flash rather than waiting for the problem to come up, then beg for help and complain when people tell you the info is already there.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Ahhh, that makes sense. Let me know if that works out for you. I just know to grab the phone, or if I know I am likely to get a call, I use my Rocketfish bluetooth headphones. That seems to work the best.

Completely dead phone

FYI...

OK, so I had been running 2.3b6 for about a week, everything worked great, so naturally, it's time to flash p7.

To begin preparation, disabled lagfix and rebooted. Something bad happened during reboot, was on AT&T screen for about 5 min, then went to battery display. After about 15 min, pulled battery, rebooted and got stuck on initial cognition screen, with phone vibrating about every 30 sec. After about 10 min of this, pulled battery, sim card, ext sd.

Put battery back in, and nothing, completely dead. Tried all the various suggestions for recovery from dead phone, nothing works. Will head to store later for new phone.
[Captivate Android Development] ratflinger:
Did you try the method where you have odin running usb plugged in & hold the vol + power keys while inserting the battery? That worked for me yesterday. Also, make sure the usb is on the MB usb port, otherwise it won't work.
