It has to be that you still have the lag fix enabled and haven't flashed back to stock Jf6, right?

Create a folder called disable-lagfix in the voodoo folder, and reboot. Wait until it's all done and boots up, THEN try to install zip from sd card.

Did you try doing ODIN 1 Click back to stock? This will reformat the SD Card back to RFS. - I've had the same issue.. most likely related to not disabling Voodoo Lagfix.

... and DG you crack me up :)

"(Quadrant checks on /data, you will see no benchmark increases over previous builds. This is why its a bad test to use. Nothing changed with the CPU, benchmarks will not change from previous builds. If you can't flash without these numbers being stupidly inflated and high, just pretent they are and flash anyways. If you are seeing drastically lower scores, make sure voodoo is enabled, backup your data, wipe your phone, flash stock, flash the rom again.)"
[Captivate Android Development] brunson:
Anyone here familiar enough with Rom Manager to answer a question?

On Monday I flashed from v2.2 BETA9.1.3 to 2.3b4 from CWM without reverting to stock and practically everything on the phone was FC. I had no cellular data, marketplace was crashing, rom manager wouldn't run and I could only get into stock recovery which wouldn't install from (I'm assuming) an unsigned update.zip. I tried erasing everything from /dbdata, but that didn't help with the FCs.

I downloaded the TiBU and RM apks to my computer, used adb to install them. Problem was, I had no data connection, so RM couldn't download CWM recovery to install. I was able to pull it down to my computer, but it's a zip file, so no adb install. I poked around in the file system and found where I though it should be copied to, but ROM manager wouldn't recognize that it had a copy of it, so kept trying to download it.

I was stuck, so I started looking for a decent Heimdall payload that I could use to flash back to something sane, but everything was Odin (No windows, don't have it, never did, won't get it, don't even f'ing go there).

Eventually I realized my WiFi was turned off, so even though my 3G was broken, all I had to do was enable it and I could get back on the air, then back in business (yeah, I know, what an idiot). But, even now I'm poking around the filesystem and there's ./koush.tandtgaming.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-2.5.1.2-captivate.zip, right where I put it when I had no network, but RM didn't recognize it. There's nothing for RM that I can find in /data or /dbdata, so I'm a little confused. There is, of course, always the chance that I didn't put the zip where I thought I did, but all traces of that are wiped.

So, I have two questions: 1) Anyone know how to manually install a CWM zip to get RM to recognize it, and 2) Is there a way to take apart an ODIN image to use with Heimdall?

I'm running 2.2B8 and I don't even have a folder named 'Voodoo'. Is that possible?
[Captivate Android Development] ntdb:
Yes, Voodoo was added in 2.2b9 according to the change log.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Yes, very possible since Voodoo didn't come with Cognition until 2.2b9.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Ok this will be my dumbest question but I will ask any way. I want to go ahead and flash the newest version. Have no as access to odin. I have the jh7 ota saved on my sd just in case. Would flashing this through clockwork be a close replacement to flashing stock

I did the disable lagfix... and it rebooted (and told me it was doing step 1... step 2). I'm guessing lagfix is now disabled... tried to update the ROM and I'm still having the exact same issues. I'm open to restoring to stock I suppose... but I don't have a PC. Any other options?
[Captivate Android Development] pdubcramp:
Thanks a bunch. So I can just go ahead with the Clockwork with 2.3B6 as is, great.

[Captivate Android Development] fatbas202:
I've been using this ROM (2.3b6) for a few hours now. The only problem that I can find is that the Contacts program seems to have confused the first and last names of Exchange contacts. It is putting the Last Name field from Exchange into the First Name field on the phone and vice versa.

Is anyone else seeing this?

Thanks!

Too funny. I posted a bit earlier hinting ( ;) ) for input if it would be days or a couple weeks for b6. Decided to go ahead and install b5.1. Just finished retoring from TIBU, and here we are at 6. :D

Um.. couldnt you install a virtualbox and load Win XP to get Odin to work?

As for the rest... going to have to wait for someone else to answer. Sounds to me like your backup is pooched. :(
[Captivate Android Development] pvr:
Which version were you on? I intend to move to b6 from b4 but really do not want to flash stock JF6 and then flash b6.

I don't even care if I have to wipe data - I just don't want to flash to stock first ;)
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Your right I did. The reason for the the Scores on the site is for those that go by those tests so they know what they should be getting, even though on DG site has stated

(Quadrant checks on /data, you will see no benchmark increases over previous builds. This is why its a bad test to use. Nothing changed with the CPU, benchmarks will not change from previous builds. If you can't flash without these numbers being stupidly inflated and high, just pretend they are and flash anyways. If you are seeing drastically lower scores, make sure voodoo is enabled, backup your data, wipe your phone, flash stock, flash the rom again.)

And as far being silly, I think those that do not head the words of the one making the rom are just plain silly, then gets to be dumb when they complain that something isnt working right when they had not followed all the directions encluding flashing back to stock if things go wrong first, instead of coming back to the thread right away to post that things went wrong and being told to flash stock.
[Captivate Android Development] TheYar:
This is definitely a Q&A forum type of post.

Have you run the app at least once yet? Some apps don't enable everything until it has been opened for the first time, and license agreements accepted, etc.
[Captivate Android Development] xpeppyx:
I think it is because daily briefing widget was for the touchwiz launcher and since its no longer there we cant use it. But i also would like to know a work around for this since this is an app i like. Or just a good widget to get from the market that shows weather, news, and calendar events for the day.

I have a couple of numbers on the rejected list, but every time they call, which is a lot, it keeps going off. Damn sales people! When I try to add them to the list again, it'll only give me the option to remove.

Anyone else getting this? Thanks!

[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
LOL, I was showing how a HUGE change has no meaning in benchmarks. The so called benchmark tool don't test properly, if they did you would see a nice jump in performance. Having inflated scores with ext2 and overclocking yields the same real world performance without possibly damaging your phone from overclocking or losing data with a non-journaled file system.

Argue all you want, its fast and safe and best of all, you don't lose any functionality.

Anyways, reported all of these posts for removal...

Lip Service would be posting scores and gloating about them... Scores were posted as proof they are bull****.

[Captivate Android Development] kiltedthrower:
This might be the dumbest question of them all so far.

I keep reading to disable voodoo. My plan is to Odin flash this back to box stock and then CWM flash to latest Cognition. Since Voodoo goes away when wiping everything back to stock, is there a reason to disable before doing this?

I'm assuming the obvious answer is why disable something that won't be there?

DG is absolutely correct when he says that this is the fastest CAPTIVATE rom. Most if not all the other roms are based on i9000 kernel and not CAPTIVATE.

A file or a folder, either way. The standard is file, but since it is a lot easier to create a folder with a file manager, most folks not unix friendly use the folder method. I always use adb and create a file.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
How did you back things up before you went to 2.3b6? Most folks use Titanium Backup, but you need to understand what you get with that.

1) You will need to buy it to make it useful.

2) I am not aware of any easy way to restore system setting or sms/mms settings. I flash so often, I can reset my phone manually in about 3 minutes.

3) You can restore all of your user installed apps with TiBu, but some apps will not restore the settings correctly and you need to avoid restoring any system apps or system data, it tends to b0rk things up.
