Still kind of new to this but does anyone have a screenshot of an espresso lock screen? Clueless :cool:. Just want to know if im interested in adding one. :o
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prjkthack:
Haha. No problem. Maybe I will open up a new thread.

I added a screenshot of the Lock Screen to my original post above.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydah:
Can you please update the black highlight with lock screen for 3.70?

When I flash the current version, weird things happen such as random letters under text messages.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DrRyder:
Could you also update the blue highlight version for the 3.70 OTA. I don't need the lock screen as I use the AOSP lockscreen. But, a new version with the blue highlight would be awesome.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydah:
Hoping a Dev could help us. What issues did you have when you flashed it?

Wow, can't believe I stumbled across this. I've been flashing every rosie on xda Evo forum and can't find one I like. What I really have been lookin for is espresso with blue highlights, and 5 wide app drawer. I use virus roms and ava made one for his rc3, but now rc4.2 it doesn't work and neither virus or ava seem to be interested in making one that does.

Oh, also, it was mapped with launcher arrow in middle button.

Is there any way you'd be willing to make one? I'd be the most grateful guy in earth. Thanks for your work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rydah:
I asked the original dev. He simply said he didn't have android anymore and didn't straight out say it, but doesn't want to help. Just what I understood from it.

Man that sucks because I really wanted the "fresh" stock espresso for the new build 3.70. :o
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scottspa74:
soooo

Any possibility of getting the rosie to have launcher in the middle, phone on left, and broswer, and 5wide drawer? (blue highlights) I've been begging every dev on xda for this. had one working on my old virus rom, but virus' rosie mod doesn't work on his new rom, and he doesn't seem to be making one. Here's a SS of what i have now, and the two rosie files in system/app

I'd be sooo grateful to anyone who would look into this for me. Thanks in advance

I'm going to try it right now. The only problem I see is that I use the Smooth Sense + Notification Power Controls over in JsChiSurf's thread. I just don't want it to break anything. I'll let you know in a few mins if it worked.

Edit: Okay. It works. The only thing missing is some of the Smooth Sense icons that are in JsChiSurf's framework-res are not back to default. Looks like the only one that didn't change was the battery icon. Any way to fix that? Also, the Phone Options menu is jumbled up. The options are mixed up when you go to reboot and see the Phone Options menu.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaosjh:
i was wondering on if/how i could change a few settings perhaps by tweaking some databases. i want to remove the ringtone fade-in, and perhaps change a few color schemes. also, with the install "stock lockscreen" as an option, could i modify this file to create my own lockscreen without the problems of 3rd party lockscreen apps have? i've also done some searching but i guess it doesn't exist, but i'll ask anyway, is there hupsa or screen notifications for froyo? thanks for whomevers time.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtritsch:
Ok I have searched and searched this site and found some threads on overclocking however what I see is different ways to do it which involve flashing a custom rom which I do not want to do now that I have Froyo. I have seen some things about frequency voltage file on the phone which I am not sure where it is located. Also there is some mention of SetCPU which some people say its good and others say no do not use it. I could not change the settings either on setCPU to make a difference. Is there 1 specific way to overclock the captivate for total n00b's like myself?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unhelpful:
You will not be able to overclock it without a custom kernel. See the thread for my kernel in the development subforum, or the Cognition ROM if you decide you do want a custom ROM. Cognition also add some nice things, like the Mobile AP feature that AT&T removes from their ROMs.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boomerod:
I'm so tired from sub-8 hour sleep nights...so, I admit, I'm being a bit lazy and this is prob a stupid question, but...using Cog 2.1.7, which has your most recent kernal, is device over-clocked by default, or do I have to mod the table (s) referred to in your posts?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mtritsch:
I do have the Cognition 2.2 Beta. At this point though I think I am going to just not worry about it. Froyo actually made my phone faster than before so besides the fact that it would just be for status it does not seem worthwhile to me.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
if you are running FroYo, then you cannot overclock at this time, as there has not been any kernel releases to support it yet.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hayslett4:
Ug... I've run out of stuff to do since Froyo... lol Anyone come up with a celtic/tribal dialer skin?

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonpiedave:
I've read a bunch of stuff about the lack of a cyanogenmod and oc kernels for the Captivate and I'd like to hear your opinion about why they aren't developing for that particular Galaxy S model when there seems to be tons of stuff for the Vibrant.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moonpiedave:
I'm fairly noobish myself but I know we need a custom kernel to overclock and according to one of the replies to your post, there are no kernels for the Captivate yet. We'll just have to wait until the dev's get around to it but don't ask them when that will be, they don't like that. Maybe we should have gotten a Vibrant...
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smokestack76:
You can use unhelpfuls hernel or setiroNs. The seti kernel is overclocked by default. I really didnt notice any difference when overclocked. I would say its not needed much. But anyhow yes there are a few kernels for captivate that overclock. Sure they are really for I9000 but they do work for us.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pirateghost:
LOL. i love it when people dredge up old threads. a month ago, we didnt have any oc/uv options for 2.2. now we have reoriented i9000 kernels that work beautifully.

to answer your question MoonPieDave, there is NO source released for the captivate 2.2 kernel AT THIS TIME. once source is released, you will see an onslaught of kernel options from the devs, but until then, we will have to live with reoriented kernels and hacks to get the most out of our systems.

Creating a SQLite database for an android app, and I have a lot of data I need to import into this database. Any suggestions on the best way to do this? I have a couple of ideas, but some outside advice is always helpful.

Thank you
[Android Software Development] elmejor183:
If it is a one time import, you just need to run a INSERT query at initial setup of database. The DATA to be imported itself can be hardcoded, downloaded, or in a textfile. If the initial data is never going to change on any install, then use a TextFile.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] HellRayzer:
I've done my research can't find the answer. I like how you can use custom icons with launcher pro. I like the text look for icons. I dont like the launcher pro setup. I like how the original 7 screens are set up with 2.2 ota. Using launcher pro you can't get the widgets like on the original screens. I have each page set up the way i like and have found no way to do it using lp.

I would like to know if there is a way to replace the icons with the text in the original 2.2 ota. Is there an icon changer program that allows this?

How do you make custom icons?

All help appreciated. Thanks, Eric

I've used ADW and launcher pro both and they both have a custom shortcut option. I used it to change my messaging icon recently.

The best quick and easy way is adw, better home, LP etc. other than that. Pull every apk from your phone and edit its icon and push back.

I think we need to rally as a community against samsung and att for lying about the memory in the captivate.
[Captivate General] SlimJ87D:
Sounds like a waste of money. They never said 512MB FREE FOR YOU TO TOTALLY USE!

Or else every Android phone and their companies should get sued.

A lot of your memory is being used by the OS, system cache and more. Have you ever really ran out of memory? I haven't.
[Captivate General] Colton5419:
Android is basically designed to never run out of memory; as it stores all programs in memory to load faster - it also ends "not in use" programs as soon as more RAM is needed for a new application.
[Captivate General] Ryukeima:
When I buy something and it says it has "such and such" RAM, I never expect to be able to actually use it all. I sure wish OS's and hardware didn't need RAM to run.... and besides, 300 Megs free for personal use is more than enough for a hand held device to run. Even if I loaded my entire list of apps into the ram I would still have room.
[Captivate General] cclem700:
Surely the first post was "tongue in cheek"
[Captivate General] ThisWasATriumph:
You will never have 300 megs for "personal use." A fresh kill of all apps gives me 123MBs free. I run out of memory all the time. Just today I was using the youtube app and browser and it totally locked up until I manually closed some programs.
[Captivate General] ardyer:
Being that pc manufacturers have been doing this for years with on board video (and they even double do by starting the ram and the vram), you would never have a chance.
[Captivate General] Valeo:
Did Samsung/ATT ever say that you would have 512MB of memory available to the user? If they did then I think you might have a case. But considering that Samsung went as far as creating videos explaining why the GT-I9000 doesn't show the whole 512MB (http://bit.ly/djxJ3r - guessing similar videos exist for the US variants), I don't think you'd stand a chance. Unless some sales rep. lied his/her way into a commission.
[Captivate General] jdsemler:
If you want something to go after them for, go after them for unreliable and often non-functional GPS that was not advertised as a crippled feature.

Even then, I would recommend waiting for the official Froyo release to give them enough chance to get a formal effort out there. I tend to think the OTA update that went out was more to turn off features AT&T doesn't want us to have for free (tethering) than it was a GPS fix. I hold the opinion that the GPS part was more of their work in progress that they tossed in there to get folks to want to give up their free tethering.
[Captivate General] nybmx:
With the way people complain and want to sue over everything nowadays it's really hard to tell. Sarcasm truly is lost when typed.
[Captivate General] SiL3nTKiLL:
lol its just advertising, while it mte not be entirely true, they are still covered..
[Captivate General] asrrin29:
Nowhere in the OS (Eclair OR Froyo) does it ever break down memory that totals the 512MB mentioned on the packaging. In all versions I've used the total amount of memory available has been in the 300MB range. I understand on an intellectual level that the OS and other vital functions need to reside in some memory so it may not ever be "free," but I'd like to be assured by the software that that memory IS in fact being allocated and is not just a fictional number made up by Samsung advertising. for all I know the Captivate COULD only have the 300-ish MB that it claims and the OS uses up a portion of that. Also, there has got to be something fishy going on, because before 2.2, Android could NOT utilize 512MB of RAM, and from my understanding, would not even be able to display it had more then that. If this is true, then why is Froyo showing that it's using the same amount of the 300MB free that Eclair used? wouldn't it have SOME amount more free than the eclair version?

Either there is a bug with the memory (display or usage), or the Captivate does not have the memory it was advertised to have.
[Captivate General] Ryukeima:
Perhaps my first estimate was incorrect, but I just did a task kill and got 200 of my 305 available free, so I will correct myself and say 200 for "personal use" which I still think is more than enough. I have never had the browser crash except when trying to play flash games and I have never run out of memory, even when pausing playing a 720p video to check a flash heavy website, load up a few hundreds texts, and browse the gallery to show people pictures. I think android manages the memory quite well.
[Captivate General] metalmansam:
Other phones like the nexus 1 have the full 512mb available as advertised & have had it available on both 2.1 & 2.2 why is this different for us galaxy s users? Does it even say anywhere official that it is supposed to have 512mb it doesn't say that anywhere on the box or in anywhere in the included text or on att's website or samsungs. It doesn't say it doesn't either. I know this sounds disappointing but lets face the facts this phone isn't all that it was hyped up to be. Not to mention that it also claims it has gps but I have tried everything & have still never been able to lock on to a satellite for more than a couple of seconds.

Where is the lie? My phone is spec'd at having 512mb of RAM and 16GB flash memory. I have that.

Does your phone have something different?

If it does, you should return it and ask for a replacement or get a refund. What would a lawsuit accomplish? Were you harmed? Did the phone catch fire in your pocket due to this defect?

I bet Jackie Childs would take this case.
[Captivate General] asrrin29:
Where in the OS does it tell you that you have 512MB of RAM?
[Captivate General] h8rift:
I don't post unless absolutely necessary, but this thread has irritated me beyond the point.

How about, instead of whining about a memory problem when all that has been used on this phone so far is Eclair (no himem) and a LEAKED super-beta may-not-even-be-close-to-release Froyo, you either:

A) Stop trying to get a rise out of a community. Honestly, if we had as many hands on deck as we do cattle around here, the Captivate would be ::the:: phone to have, with many ROMs, mods, apps, etc.

B) Return your Captivate and never come back here again. No one misses whiners.

C) Actually understand that the reason why you dont see that much RAM is because the physical chip is 512MB RAM. Its not for you to use, and you could consider yourself lucky that a phone with as high of specs it has, just might have to use more RAM! I suggest you read RyanZA's thread on RFS and to explain to yourself how FSYNC and its security checks work with RAM.

D) I'm done. If you want to flame me about it, go ahead. But I'm sick and tired of people purchasing a phone then whining about it and threatening the lawyers when SOME people are perfectly content with this phone just how it is. Honestly. Go get an iPhone4 or wait for a Samsung Tab, or go get a Dell Streak and put Eclair on it. Just STOP whining.

No wonder the devs don't want to do work for this smartphone.

Good god..
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
It doesn't say it in the OS - but that doesn't mean it isn't there.

I guess the teardown sites could be fooled, and Samsung could be lying to everyone.

The most logical explanation to me, is that the 512MB is there - I don't think we have a 300ish MB chip.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
If you're using the Froyo ROM's Task Manager, it display memory USED instead of memory FREE. So, if you read 200 out 305, it means 200MB used and 105MB free. The best I can get from Froyo ROM is about 150MB free. You will never see 200MB free in either 2.1 or 2.2 ROM unless you run custom ROMs.
[Captivate General] Ryukeima:
I am aware of froyo's display of memory usage. I am not trying to argue, but the fact is that it is indeed possible to have 200 free. When I use the froyo task manager and I close inactive tasks, I show 105/305 in use. I achieve similar results with advanced task killer on jh7. I still stand by my statement that 200 MBs free is more than enough for a hand held device.

Back on topic though, some one mentioned that other devices show the whole memory available. I would say this is case by case depending on the developers. For example, the hd2 would only show 448 available at initial release, but then it was discovered how to unlock the whole 570+ or whatever the amount was. There was a nasty side effect from this though that degraded voice quality due to the radio not having sole control over the that memory. I do not know if that was ever fixed.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
I have not found it, but someone in another thread referenced Ryanza as saying the memory reported is less due to Samsung using a large chunk for a RAM Disk. I have not confirmed, but it may explain some things.
[Captivate General] derek4484:
I think its a load of crap! They advertise 512MB of RAM but then only allocate 304MB of ram to android OS, the rest is being used for something else. Whether its graphics vram or what, I dont know but would love a concrete answer.

I know after I do an ATK on my phone I can only get between 120-150MB free. My friend has a droid incredible and when he does an ATK he ends up with 280-300MB free. Same with my other friend who has a Nexus One, 270-290 free. I think we were seriously misled when samsung advertised "512MB RAM" so it would appear equal to Incredible or Nexus One, but it really isnt. I dont think anybody here is disputing that there is a 512MB RAM chip in the phone, its just that almost half is not available to be used by android.

It would be like Dell selling you a computer advertising 6GB of RAM. But then when you get it you find out you can only use 2.93GB due to 32bit limitation of the OS. Wouldnt you feel ripped off? Knowing that you had more hardware but were only limited to approx half of the RAM?? Thats how I feel. I bought the phone fully expecting to be on equal footing RAM-wise with droid incredible or nexus one. Hell, I could have just bought an AT&T Nexus One from Google of if I only wanted half the RAM of a N1 or incredible, I could have just bought a Moto Droid that has 256MB of RAM. Matter of fact, when I demoed a Droid last November, I could do a task kill and get 120-130 MB free RAM on it, the same as our Galaxy S phones that supposedly have twice the RAM.
[Captivate General] h8rift:
No one is ripping you off except whoever put RFS as our filesystem.

Pretty sure that is where that RAM disk is being used. Again. Read RyanZA's post. If you already did, read it again...
[Captivate General] derek4484:
Where is this RyanZA post? I can't find any post by him that says we have less RAM because of a RAM disk being employed. Please show us a link to it, I'd very much like to read it. Thanx.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
In i9000 dev section, he posted a while back regarding either the EPIC firmware or Froyo firmware(don't remember which one) that has better Quadran score than stock 2.1 firmware.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Actually many PCs are advertised with X amount of RAM and some of that is allocated to video RAM as a bios setting. Usually the OS reports the size of the chips - but what is available is less. I have a lenovo thinkpad in front of me (work machine - I didn't pick it) with 8Gb of RAM (win 7 x64) -task manager says i have 5799 available and 102 free - but i have 2.1GB of RAM In use - even closing programs I still have 1.5GB in use. But everything runs fine, so I am not going to try and second guess my OS.

So you mentioned in the other thread that the iPhone doesn't have all the problems of the Captive (i lived through some crappy earlier releases on the iPhone, so i would disagree), and now you are on this thread arguing about memory.

If you don't like the phone, then get something else.
[Captivate General] ThisWasATriumph:
Ok then why cant we get it back using the voodoo kernel? Sure its not available for froyo yet but i dont think thats the problem as 2.1 already has HIGHMEM support enabled or so ive read.
