Excellent work! What's he eating?

I was waiting for the new release too, but now I'm not so sure. Everyone seems pretty happy with 2.3b3 (aside from some problems but they seem isolated and more the user's fault than a bug in the ROM) and really the only reason I ventured into XDA in the first place was to get 1. Froyo 2. Mobile AP 3. No AT&T garbage on my phone and 4. some of the speed increases thanks to DG / VooDoo. I think 2.3b3 will give me all I need, until gingerbread anyway.

edit - not saying playing with ROMs is bad of course, just that I don't know enough to save my cappy if it bricks, and I can't afford a new one!

Boot up sound

On this topic, it's interesting that some want that sound back. I prefer to not have it. If I need to reboot my phone in a place where I don't want to be conspicuous, or bother others, I prefer a silent boot. Sound performs no good purpose as far as I'm concerned.[/QUOTE]

Some of us like to use custom start-up sounds and/or boot animations. I personally use both.

com.andriod.phone?

Hello, I have the Samsung Captivate from ATT and I downloaded and flashed your newest v2.3b3 rom via Clockwork Recovery and it said all was successful but when I turn the phone on I get all of these force close pop ups for Twlauncher and it says the process com.andriod.phone has stopped unexpectedly and thats all it does. Can someone helo me to what I did wrong and how to fix it? Thanks and sorry I am a newb at this Andriod stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Reboot into recovery through Rom manager and clear data and cache . DG did not include a data wipe with beta 3 so you have to do it manually.
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
It's nice to have the option, but I like the default being off (including no voodoo sound "bug"). I usually start playing with rom swapping at night always have to remember to go someplace where it won't wake anyone when I go to stock.

[Captivate Android Development] t1990le:
How do you reboot into recovery? Are you talking about the blue screen after you hold down both volume keys and the power button? I went there and maually cleared user data and cache and rebooted...Still, the same thing :/.
[Captivate Android Development] EsotericPunk:
This is a known issue in the new version of gmail. Only Google can fix this one my friend.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Open the app Rom manager and click reboot into recovery... clear data and clear cache are two different options I think. Make sure you are in clockwork recovery and not stock recovery. If that still doesn't work you will have to reflash...

Well, just had my first issue with beta 4. For whatever reason, every time I open my email, twitter or browser, it goes into landscape mode, no matter how I hold my phone. I have auto rotate checked but it's been checked since I bought the phone so not sure that's the culprate. I know my coworker had a similar problem with his Evo when it updated to froyo. Anyone else have this happen? Thanks.

Any have an update file to restore the Samsung Lockscreen (Puzzle)?
[Captivate Android Development] doctahjeph:
This is what I did to get it working after i was getting FCs. After I dropped it in my system/app folder replacing the old .apk I clicked on it. It asked me if I want to install over a previous version. I said yes and it installed it again. Now I am able to open my email app without FCs and I don't have the blank reply issue anymore.
[Captivate Android Development] mr.jaguar:
ok, here's a question for those of us who don't want to mess with froyo for a while, hows 2.1.7 working? better batterylife? I'm on cog2 and the battery is pretty sad.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Dont think you can, no one has made an overclock Froyo kernel to my knowledge.

People, can a bad battery off eBay cause FC's? I got a LOT of them after throwing one in after using an OEM for a while.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
This is a perfect example of why there should be 2 threads. One for The older Cognition Eclair builds, and one for newer Cognition Froyo builds.

I believe the one asking about overclocking downloaded Cognition 2.1.7, (Eclair) with Unhelpful's OC/UV kernel.

Here is your answer on how to overclock:

Using RootExplorer or similar, browse to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq

There should be a file there called freq_volt_table; copy this file

Then, if you have an external SD card insterted, create a folder called config there, and paste the freq_volt_table file there. (If you do not have an external SD card, you can paste the file to the already created config folder on the internal SD card, it's just easier to pull an external SD if the OC/UV borks something)

Then you are going to want to edit that freq_volt_table file to enable the OC. More info about doing this can be found HERE.

Good luck!

To speak on the eBay battery thing, I just received mine today, and am using one right now. No FC's, but then again, I'm still running the original Cog 2.2 beta, not beta4.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Im running Beta 1 actually. Is it even possible that weak batteries can cause FC's? like corruption of data on boot due to low/no power at a specific moment due to a crap battery?
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
I wouldn't think that a bad/weak battery would cause force closures.
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
I don't think I'll leave beta 4 for a while. I don't use exchange and I have found 0 bugs that affect me. Phone has NEVER been this fast on any previous Cog versions (I've been around to try them all too).

If the browser wasn't a little laggy then I would call this build perfect (minus the e-mail bug of course)

Oh yeah and this is pretty damn amazing, pretty sure I have never ever had battery life like this:

**Just to be clear, I'm running Cognition v2.2 beta 4**
[Captivate Android Development] doctahjeph:
I agree. I think DG should start two new threads and close this one. One for Froyo and one for Eclair. This thread has been used and abused. time to start fresh.
[Captivate Android Development] kinggheedora:
Note, when I followed those instructions I lost the email icon from the bottom task bar on my home screens (now only have 3: phone, browser, apps). I had to create a shortcut for the email app onto my home screen. Does anyone know how to put this new email icon into the task bar?

Other differences:

Email app icon is different

Captivate's JI6 email app looks slightly different in how it displays email header info (to:, from:, etc).

Captivate's JI6 email app also has support for more actions against emails, for example you can select one or more emails and then move them to another folder. I don't see any way to do this with the replacement Email.apk that fixes the reply/fwd no-text issue.

Captivate's JI6 let you scroll through your folders via horizontal tab of folder names across the top. You could scroll that list by dragging the tab left or right. It was kind of broken in that after about 2 seconds it would reset back to the original position, so if you have a lot of folders like me you have to find the one you're looking for pretty fast.

It's kind of a pain in the ass for me since I move all emails that don't require action from me into another folder as soon as I read them, so moving emails to different folders is something i do often. Of course having to choose between being able to move emails vs. being able to reply or forward, the latter takes precedence.

Overall the Captivate JI6's original Email app seemed more polished in terms of UI features and layout, but that one bug of not being able to reply is a show stopper. Why are there multiple versions of the email app, isn't this email app created by Google as part of the Android OS? I could be wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] doctahjeph:
I agree beta4 is pretty sweet. I use exchange but after installing the Tab email.apk I am all good. For the browser issue try downloading Dolphin Browser HD. It works wonders better than the stock browser.
[Captivate Android Development] doctahjeph:
No it is a Samsung app. Stock android email is more plain with far less features IMO.

is there a thread with instructions to flash just a kernel in odin?

i have used clockwork recovery every time for the kernel up untill now and im not sure what slot the kernel goes in (PDA?) and if i need the .pit file. i have used odin to flash roms and im half temped to just try something not knowing for certain if im doing it right but flashing to stock then flashing a new rom then recovering all my apps is a pain so i dont want to do this wrong it might save me a bunch of time to be informed this time.

voodoo causing fc?

Before starting the update process I disabled lagfix as recommended. Instead of shutting down and then going into download mode I hit reboot. Once I was back in 2.3 (without doing any update yet) I got all apps giving me FC.

The first reboot after installing a new rom will always reboot with lagfix off since the sdcard is not changed during the installation (disable-lagfix is still there).

As I understand it, the lagfix modifies the file system, so any data that is saved while lagfix is on will not be readable when it's off. Is that correct? If that is the case, the first reboot will always have issues until lagfix is enabled again.
[Captivate Android Development] chrisharmful:
Guess I should ask this now, would any of the metamorph stuff (Darkness) work with 2.4 or would that be a bad idea?

when it says wipe data on the change log..does it mean like everything or will i still have my files from the internal sd card..cause thats where my tibu is saved and other stuff.. internal sd being the 16gb built in one..i got no ext sd.. thanks for the replies and answers =)
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
I think your problem is that data wasn't wiped (the 2.3b3 didn't include data wipe). You can try to do it manually: long press power and select the recovery instead of regular power off. Once rebooted into recovery you can use the volume to go up and down to select the delete data and delete cache options (selecting with power button). When done reboot and see if that helped
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
The change log has been up for a couple days. 2.4 is built on a vibrant rom
[Captivate Android Development] chrisharmful:
Just heard the voodoo voice. Damn, that was quick.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
You definitely should have done a data wipe coming from 2.1...do you have clockworks update.zip on your SD card?
[Captivate Android Development] tsachi:
Internal sd shouldn't be affected unless something goes wrong. It is a good practice, however, to back it up on the computer before you start, because there's always a chance of something going wrong.;)

Backup is easy and quick - connect through usb and copy files over. Do it while you download the ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] mac208x:
I was looking at his wiki.

Also since this is a vibrant rom i wont be able to flash the setrion kernel right?
[Captivate Android Development] t1990le:
I tried clearing and I rebooted and still got the same thing. :/ I thought I did but it gives me a cant open /sdcard/update.zip error message when i try to select reinstall packages from the recovery mode.

cog 2.4 first impression

Install: went from 2.3b3 to 2.4, very quick, no issues

Voodoo: was there supposed to be sound at first reboot? Mine was silent

interface:

1. WOW. Snazzy's the word (and snappy too), although I think I'd rather have more apps in the fixed tray. Haven't tried restoring the TW icon layout, afraid I'm going to mess things up so it will wait till morning.

2. Scrolling 3D view for apps is cool, but takes getting used to. Could see the coolness fading and becoming annoying.

3. Overall fonts and icons look nicer

Restoring data/apps: no FC after restoring user apps

Running apps: exchange works great(including forwarding), as does gmail

GPS: normal slow lock. Needs testing when out driving.

ok, im just stuck in the same file analysis thing on ondin and cant seem to get around it :/
[Captivate Android Development] o_ssie:
AAHHH, my phone just spoke to mee!!!
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
Did you get into download mode?

If you did and it hung at file analysis - this has happened to me before - you will need to pull the battery and start again - just make sure it is hung at file analysis you do not want to pull the battery while it is flashing the kernel or boot loader.

Also if you start again make sure odin is already on and ready before you put your phone into download mode - this will help keep it from hanging on file analysis.
[Captivate Android Development] t1990le:
Yes Im guessing that the download mode is the black screen with blue words. But my phone doesnt show the "(phone graphic)- - - yellow sign with "!" mark - - - (computer graphic)" Its just a triangle with the ! in the middle and the little green andriod dude. It also says:

# manual mode #

[Captivate Android Development] t1990le:
oh ok, that might explain y i havent got odin to work :/ lol
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Thanks DG, dl it and maybee flash tomorrow.

Side note: People Please study up on everything involved when it comes to flashing.

You need to know what download mode is and looks like. Same with recovery.

You need to understand using Odin One Click and that it is different from plain Odin and Odin 3.

You need to know what your stock ROM is and what your flashing to.

What kernels are, what stock recovery is and what Clockwork recovery is and the differences in appearance is desirable knowledge.

You need to understand rooting and how to tell if your rooted.

You really need to sit back and read posts in this thread related to the ROM you're contemplating flashing to understand what the common problems are and the work around methods for dealing with them.

Knowing your phone well before modifying it helps too, easier to know when something is not going right.

If you are lacking in knowledge in any of those areas and are thinking of flashing...don't. Chances are you won't be enjoying it. Get the knowledge first so it is easier on you and those helping you.

:cool:

[Captivate Android Development] chrisharmful:
First impressions, voodoo loaded way fast, that surprised me. So far, this seems way fast, may disable voodoo to see how it is "stock" but for now, this thing is wicked fast and super smooth. One thing I did notice is it seems like a lot of apps are running now, compared to 2.3, but no big deal in terms of performance. GPS seems the same as 2.3, but that got better with more and more use, will test while driving later but it should be the same and keep lock. Headphones work as far as music goes, will test phone when people are awake. I do miss the other COG wallpapers but I guess the Android Central works for now. Too early to talk about battery life but if its like the past roms, the first 30% will go quick and then level out so I should get about a full days worth of battery life. Overall, all I can say is wow.
