Did anyone try to flash this without going back to stock 2.1? from 2.3 b3 to 2.4
[Captivate Android Development] VinCe_x542:
Just flashed today as well and just got my phone all set up!
[Captivate Android Development] mblackm1:
I went from 2.2b2 to 2.2b4 useing CWM but i am confused about the voodoo voices in fact lagfix in general but all else is jammin so far
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
DG hasnt updated his changelog. Does anyone have the changes that this version has?
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
Yes he did. He updated the change log a couple days ago.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
The changelog is updated, and has been available for a few days.
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
he just put this version up today how could the change log been up a couple days ago...
[Captivate Android Development] larmor19:
Ahhhhhggggggg ............ I wake up this morning to find this. You are killing me man.

Ok here I go again.

By the way thx bro for all the hard work.
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
is he not putting on his wiki anymore cause when I go there the last update to this is listed 11/5/2010 @ http://cognition.theidiotshideout.net/mw/index.php?title=Main_Page
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Because he knew what was coming and wanted us to have an idea as well. He might have finalized some things, but the changelog was up there saying 11/?/10 for at least 3 days.
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
Maybe he has a time machine!

Or maybe the fact that he has known for a few days what all changes would be posted the main parts of those changes in a change log a couple days ago and has been working out kinks and held off posting the actual rom till today.

I don't know for sure which one of the above 2 possibilities are right, but I'm certain it is one of them.
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
Dg is not the main maintainer of the wiki - not sure if he does any of the wiki maintainance.
[Captivate Android Development] mblackm1:
The changelog is.available.from download page but not the wiki
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
finally a non smart ass informative answer.. Thank you because I was looking at the wiki where all previous version change logs were listed. Much appreciated. if all answers were like this there would be way less drama...

edit.. also my apologies... maybe i just took everyones answer the wrong way too.. im not meaning to start any drama.. just wanted to figure out why I wasnt seeing the changes..
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
ok thank you
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Not really so dramatic or 'smart ass' really. You go to the Download Cognition page, and there is a Changelog link BEFORE the Wiki link. Makes sense to me to look there first.
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
i added to that post...

the reason I look in the wiki is because in the past it has always been updated pretty quick...

But really when the first thing in the thread it states "Rom FAQ's" and tell you to go there to see the changes I tend to go where the thread tells me to, to see the changes.....
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
I'll admit I was a little short and a little bit of a smart ass, mostly just having fun and laughing to myself, but only because we just went through a couple posts on this very same topic just a couple pages back
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
i didnt see that post or I wouldnt have ask the question.. people come here for guidance and help not to get those types of answers. I appreciate the honesty here and yes I should have remembered there was a change log tab within the download page, I have been around enough to know that. But its early and everyone is entitled to have a major brain fart from time to time, in my case just needed more coffee.....

its all good
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
Thanks for the new update. Just wondering is there going to be a Odin version to update? The only reason I am asking is because that is what I have been using. If I have to learn a new way it is all good too though. :)
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:

Yes I went from 2.3b3 to 2.4 so far without any force closes. First I disable-lagfix Second moved the 2.4 into the SD card via root explorer. Then I went into Recovery with the power button and chose recovery. I cleared data, cleared cache, repeated these again (helped me in the past), cleared dalvich cache (however it is spelled), had previously charged my battery with phone on then charged with it off then while I was in recovery I reset battery stats. Then I had it start with the 2.4 zip. Everything has come up God without issues. I then went to market and put in my paid apps including titanium backup. Then I went back to tiny and started restoring the apps I want back. I have the paid version of tubular so it is easy. Most the apps I just clicked on them, hit restore, popular with app only. A select few I restored with apps + data. So far it is very smooth and to quote DG snappy.

PS. I did not have to re-enable lagdix with deleting the disable-lagfix folder? In the past I remember having to delete it. Ow well working awesome so far. THANKS DG I will send some whiskey money today since in the past I sent beer money. Great work...
[Captivate Android Development] Coldheat1906:
I would recommend flashing back to stock then download ROM Mananger and install from there. it doesn't get any easier then that.......wait ..... the Odin was easier..... LOL

bottom line it is still is a easy rom to update to. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
We all miss posts and/or miss-read posts from time to time

And most of us get picked on from time to time for it
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
thanks dg! love the innovative spirit

Feedback:

1. Doesn't feel quite as snappy your usual ROMs

2. Aesthetics went way down with Vibrant.

I'll come back later and edit any other changes I see. As always, I appreciate your work.
[Captivate Android Development] larmor19:
Actually I was not referring to anything other than the fact DG is a machine and had cranked out another awesome rom for us to use.

It is gonna be hard to top this one bro ... it is the best yet.
[Captivate Android Development] sparker366:
In regards to why the Wiki wasn't updated. DG doesn't do the wiki updates. I do and I did add the changelog to the wiki last night but for some stupid reason I never hit save page and it never applied. Its updated now

So folks its updated now and in the future don't blame DG for not updating it as he is only responsible for updating his own site for the changelog.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
Thanks for the reply. sorry to ask but where can i find the dalvich cache? I dont know much of reseting my battery stats all i do on my previous flash is just ROM Manager and delete dat and cache and pray it would flash good i havent tried to flash to stock cause scared to screw up the 3 button :( since mine comes without it on stock. And one thing did the vodoo voice work with you i saw 1 post here that he did not heard anything after the boot
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Installed and restored my apps without issue. It seems smoother.

Settings menu and pull down are nice.

Interesting that my quadrant score went down by 100.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
What a minute, 2.4, where's the "b" are we out of Beta :D

I LOVE DG.

Is anyone like me and wanting to flash just because the "b" is no longer in the title. Silly, I know :p
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
Interesting, I was scoring 1560 consistently with last beta, what score is giving you with 2.4?
[Captivate Android Development] clopes91:
Well no I haven't read much into it I thought inwould be as simple as it is explained I rooted then used rom manager did the recovery and and it all works fine except for that so for 2.4 is there somethings I should do before flashing it?
[Captivate Android Development] \/icious:
not really all that interesting seeing how you can run quadrant many times and come up with a 50 point spread.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Right, but I was in the 1500s on the 2.3's, and this one is 1400s.
[Captivate Android Development] LarryLars:
Sorry wrong post.
[Captivate Android Development] LarryLars:
Had the same issue, had to flash it twice via ODIN to correct, all is well since.
[Captivate Android Development] slayp00n:
Does anyone know how I can flash the hds hus modem with 2.4? (jp8, the one that comes with gemod?)...

I love cog in every way but i want hs...
[Captivate Android Development] Guardian_Bob:
I know this is late, but please, don't abbreviate Clockwork Mod Rom Manager as "rm", instead use "cwm". As you're probably aware Android is Linux based, and rm is the remove command in *nix. While the possibility of confusing may be slight, if someone does get confused it would be a really bad day for them.
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
So far this is the best cog to date...the vibrant froyo Tom feels a bit more polished......haven't had a chance to try everything out yet but so far so awesome. I love launcher 2! I'm glad you added it. By far the best launcher out there
[Captivate Android Development] crupp:
anyone flashed using CWM? If so, any problems?
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
Just flashed from 2.3b3 to 2.4 using CWM, no issues here. Just put zip on sd, boot into CWM, wipe data, flash, enjoying the goodness now.
[Captivate Android Development] crupp:
Thanks, firing it up now!
[Captivate Android Development] Stephenv1971:
Wow! No beta in the name. Does this have bt dialing? (voicedialer.apk) I would love to try this but bt dialer is the deal breaker.
[Captivate Android Development] lrs421:
same here, CWM failed the first time due to mounting issue, second time around it worked great.
[Captivate Android Development] SkitchBeatz:
Working well so far..just going to be tough getting used to all of this uneccessary/tacky gloss on buttons and menus.

The browser is definitely faster and can handle complex pages a lot more easily. (Like 2.1)
[Captivate Android Development] michael.seltzer:
Because this is a vibrant rom is there a chance my phone will relock? I don't have the codes unfortunately.
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
Dalvik cache is under the same place you deleted batt stats.

Also... since (I'm assuming here) you would use ROM Manager/CWM to install DG's latest and greatest that you would only have to re-root, download ROM Manager and use that program to reboot into recovery to install Cognition.

I'm about to flash the latest and greatest too .. wish me luck!
[Captivate Android Development] g0nk:
anyone got some screenshots of the new 2.4 ROM since it's Vibrant based? Just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
2 minor bugs that I am looking to see if anyone else experienced

1. I unplugged my usb and the usb icon along with debugging stayed in the notification bar. Plugged back in then removed and it was gone

2 used Bluetooth with sync on the way to work. Calls worked fine. Turned Bluetooth off and got a foreclose. Did a reboot and Bluetooth was set to on. Manually went to menu under settings and turned off. No foreclose.

These are minor issues just looking to see if it is just me and if I should flash. Thanks

[Captivate Android Development] realawill:
Man, this is too sweet! Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] michael.seltzer:
since touchwiz was removed does that mean there isn't the samsung music and video players?
[Captivate Android Development] cropythy:
Can anyone get a gps lock with 2.4? I can only see up to 3 satellites and can't lock on any. Is this due to it being a vibrant rom?
[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
+1 no GPS lock today morning for me. Will try again in the evening.
[Captivate Android Development] hey_joe:
Am very interested as well.

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] bkeaver:
another bug minor as it is when your in the camera and you select default dest. and select online album you get a FC everytime... maybe I dont have it setup but just thought I would throw that out there..

also does anyone know if the stock lock screen works with this build? if this has been stated before sorry :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] makitel:
ASOP Lock Screen

Has anyone tried to change lock screen?

I tried to replace the android.policy.jar file and I get stuck in a loop.

**Phone starts and loads in to home screen, vibrates a couple times, goes to COG boot screen, vibrates a couple times, goes in to home screen, repeat endlessly**

any ideas why this is happening?
[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
I tried as well and got same issue. We need to wait till lock screens are updated for v2.4
[Captivate Android Development] CPeterson:
LZMA compression?

dg, for the LZMA compression, are you changing the compression of the apks or just the download? LZMA decompression is both slower and more memory intensive than the standard deflate algorithm, so it doesn't seem like it would be a good idea to use it on the apks, unless that was somehow made up for with less I/O.

Also, just curious: The 9.1.3 changelog mentioned you were planning on replacing stock recovery with CWM. Is that still pending, or did you run into problems and decide to drop it?

Anyway, the ROM looks great. Keep up the good work. :)
[Captivate Android Development] NiXXeD:
If you're replacing it with my old jar, then you are doing it wrong. It's not yet available for this build.
[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
I know. Should have waited till it becomes available
[Captivate Android Development] makitel:
Thank you to you and NiXX for clarifying my sanity. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
Same here. No worries though
[Captivate Android Development] avgjoegeek:
I see a Voice Dialer on this load.

So far so good.... just have to re-setup my phone (again and again and again). I'll have to keep futzing around with it and see if I get it to shutdown on me.

I def like this "stock" look better than Samsung's touchwiz crap. Great job as usual DG.
[Captivate Android Development] RDI:
Titanium Backup will not Restore most of my Apps

Just flashed from 2.3b3 to 2.4 using CWM, did everything the same as always. When I try to run a Batch "Restore missing apps with data" it only restores a few of them. Mostly stuff I had un-installed during the last build.
[Captivate Android Development] LinuxNewb:
About to check out this ROM :) I've been using I9000 because of the added features for 3g/edge etc... and now that this has it I'll definitely be seeing if I switch back to COG.
[Captivate Android Development] jsmith8858:
Thanks for the info, especially about the browser, that really bothered me on most of the 2.2 roms so I went back to 2.1

Could you (or anyone else) possibly post a couple of screen shots demonstrating the "glossy" look? Since there's no official screen shots that I could find, I am sure many people considering this ROM (such as myself) will find it very useful to see how it looks. Nothing is worse than a nearly perfect ROM that just doesn't look appealing!
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Try putting these Jupiter files in and see if it helps. I had to do that on my current 2.3b2. Made a world of difference.

Be sure to backup your current ones first in case you find you want to put them back.
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Auto rotate stopped working. Not sure why....I tried deleting GPS data and got a reboot to where I had to pull the battery....now no autrotate!
[Captivate Android Development] crupp:
anyone know if Samsung widgets will work with Launcher? if not can TW be re-installed?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] pagandoc:
I didn't hear the voodoo voice, should I just wipe and go back to stock before flashing?
[Captivate Android Development] ntdb:
Can anyone confirm whether the 3-button fix is included in the 2.4 CWM?
[Captivate Android Development] evertec:
Is there any way you could keep touchwiz in there for those who like it or at least have a link where it can be installed? Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] JPxM0Dz:
Love the new rom, everything is smooth! Disabled and then re-enabled voodoo so I could just here the sexy voodoo voices ;)

Really like the home launcher, is there any setting adjustments for it?
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Also GPS does not work...I have not had problems getting locks in 20 sec. But now I'm not getting any satellites
[Captivate Android Development] tietherope:
I would really appreciate this too if anyone had the time to do so.

[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
LZMA is just going to be to packaging the whole thing up for the install process.

There is a 2.2 universal unlock in the dev section... works prefect.

Ah yes, online album is a tmobile thing, will replace camera with the captivate version on next release.

<3 whiskey, very snappy and snazzy, thank you sir!

Odin is having strange issues... I have picked up the latest version along with new drivers, seems to have fixed it, but I need to test it some more first.

Thanks for those :)
[Captivate Android Development] flo7002:
I'm trying to flash 2.4 with CWM but can't get it to find the zip. I put the zip straight on the internal SD. Do I need to put it in a certain folder? When CWM goes into recovery it says E:can't open /cache/update.zip, if I select reinstall package again it says E:can't open /sdcard/update.zip

It's my first time playing with CWM so not sure what I'm doing wrong.
[Captivate Android Development] Jjparknyc:
Gps not locking. with 2.3b i would get a good lock within 30seconds but with 2.4 only 2 show up and it does not lock.
[Captivate Android Development] g0nk:
Awesome, thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
Granted I installed Jupiter tweaks but I got a quick lock. Will edit and report later on loosing a lock on a trip since this is the most frequent issue
[Captivate Android Development] michael.seltzer:
So if im on tmobile is it possible to get wifi calling working? I know dg said that this would never work on at&t. Did u mean on an at&t phone or on the network?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
Flashed 2.4 from 2.3 b2 with Rom Manager. Didn't disable voodoo. No problem. So far so good.

Thanks DG!!

[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
My phone did not relock.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
The Dalvich is under the advanced settings next to reset battery stats. I am NOT. Sure if clearing the dalvich is necessary since I haven't done so in the past. I read others did it so I thought before I flashed I would clear as much as I could. Whatever it worked for me and I have had no issues or force closes.
[Captivate Android Development] cnewsgrp:
So far the new ROM looks great to me.

What I like:

- Easy install - no issues. Though I never had install issues before. I did not disable lagfix and it worked fine. I did do a data/cache wipe

- Better look and feel that earlier ROMS. I know this is subjective, this is just my opinion but this one looks more polished.

Issues:

- GPS: GPS was never tha great before, but it is worse compared to earlier versions. I have used Cog ROMS 8.1 onwards and this is really bad. I did not get a lock outside in 3 minutes.
[Captivate Android Development] LinuxNewb:
Have you tried this? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=789383
[Captivate Android Development] lolgrec:
2.3b3 to 2.4

so its possible to flash 2.4 from cwm on top of 2.3b3? will i have to disable lagfix? it says that 2.4 wipes data so i figured there should be no issues flashing on top of 2.3b3 but i just wanted to be sure before i went and did this...had MAJOR problems 9.1.3 to 2.3b3 b/c it didn't wipe data..if any of this was addressed then i apologize for cluttering the boards ahead of time...don't wanna piss of anyone/mods o.O
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Make sure it is in (cannot remember the exact way it is labeled) /mnt/ sdcard NOT PLACED WITHIN THE SD CARD. Also you have to go where it says install from sd card, then go to choose update from sd card. Which will allow you to acroll Up/Down until you see it
[Captivate Android Development] Sagui:
So far I'm absolutely loving 2.4. Super smooth, no FC's yet.

I did notice that the Clock app is gone, any chance of adding that back in?

Also is there any way to customize Launcher2?
[Captivate Android Development] SkitchBeatz:
im pretty sure the clock is there
[Captivate Android Development] tjsooley:
Thanks for the perfect fw.

can you make a mod for stock lock screen?
[Captivate Android Development] sschrupp:
I see a lot of people mentioning the Jupiter files and pointing to the GPS thread that has them. Is this something that could just be made part of the next Cognition ROM maybe? Or do these Jupiter files help some but hurt others?
[Captivate Android Development] rsbailey:
It's now called "Alarms and Clocks" I think.
[Captivate Android Development] prim8:
I think his point was that there is a 50 point margin of error with Quadrant. I think it's actually larger than that.

One of the reasons it's a horrible benchmark IMO.
[Captivate Android Development] fufuplatter:
before using CWM to install ROM, you must flash recovery first. This process will place a CWM update.zip on the SD card so that it can then boot and install the ROM you want. Hope that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I'm confused. Are you saying you installed Jupeter, and now you get a lock, but need to test?

Or are you saying you got a quick lock even before installing the Jupiter tweaks?
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Ok guys what was said about Quad scores? They mean nothing. The program was not designed for our processors so they will not give good readings.

Just in case it was missed as per my post all Quad score posts will be deleted from here on out with out any more warnings ok
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I suggested the same thing a few posts earlier. As usual, nobody is reading.

Hoping to get a confirmation from someone that has it not working well, that finds putting these on did help.

In my case, on 2.3b2, it made a tremendous difference (or coincidentally they GPS just decided to be good...who knows for sure). But mine is working great right now. I don't plan to move to 2.4 until I see a bit more info on how its going for folks first.
[Captivate Android Development] Sagui:
My bad! It's called Alarm and Clock now.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Im liking everything so much as I look arou.d it more. Someone posted it looks more refined and it is. The app screen is pretty cool looking and will take some getting used to. When you go into settings it looks great with the two tone blacks/greys. The only thing is the pull down menu I REALLY LIKE the icons but prefer a blackish see through menu. I will wait for a battery and pulldown file that works or try one of the older ones. I do think this is running super awesome. Thanks DG
[Captivate Android Development] gangpe:
Headphone jack and the new Super Snazzy build?

Hi guys,

Quick question for anyone that has flashed to the new Super Snazzy build. When using a standard pair of headphones (not the standard headset or a wired mic/headphone combo), do you get audio during calls? Just curious.
[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Awww, come on, my Quad score was 11,000,000,000 with VooDon't lagfix installed. WTF, why can't I post meaningless benchmarks??!??! :)

Working Great. Awesome work DG and it didn't relock my phone.
[Captivate Android Development] mjriehl:
Everything looks great on 2.4.

The only issue I see is that the GPS wont lock anymore.
