boost wifi ?

I have same problem. My previous HTC diamond had much better WIFI reception.

I found here a more recent rom from the one I have and all instructions needed

h**p://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=706435

mind the **

keep in mind that in order to upgrade radio you need to root the phone and doing so you'll invalidate warranty.

That's why I am waiting for Froyo update and then I'll decide if to root or not
[Legend General] TheGrammarFreak:
A less practical, but theoretically valid solution, would be to take apart your Legend, and add a bigger wifi antenna. Just replace the black bit surrounding the camera, and bolt on a small satellite dish. Point it at the router, you'll be fine. :D
[Legend General] Gaillimh_Abú28:
If you were to use a ROM that let you hold the phone at upside down, and still see the screen "the right way up", that may improve the Wifi reception, it worked with the Network.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmvik:
I was getting ready to flash my Captivate with new Cognition Froyo from Eclair that I had on there. First I decided to remove the ext4 lagfix I had. To save space on internal SD card. opened up sl4a, hit remove fix. Phone rebooted and stayed on with black screen for an hour. Buttons would light up. So I knew it was on. I figured it was moving folders around and such. So I gave it time. in ext thread - it doesnt say anything about how long should removing take and what should you expect... it would ve been helpful :( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=765820 But 1 hour seemed too long. I dont have many files on there at all. I pulled the battery. Now when I start the phone its the same story - ATT splash screen comes up, big S shows up that flashes as a normal start up sequence - then it goes to black screen and stays there.

I tried flashing the phone back to stock. Recently formatted my PC, so now I have Win 7 64 bit. Installed the 64 bit drivers. When phone is off and I plug it in - it shows up in Device Manager as unknown device for 30 seconds then disconnects. Also in the properties window it says "drivers are not installed for this device" which then chages to "Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45)

To fix this problem, reconnect this hardware device to the computer." If i push the power button - my computer sees the device no problem and says drivers are installed. ADB and modem and such. If I open up cmd window to try adb with phone on or off it says "error: device offline"

How do I fix this...... OMG :eek:
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KCutrer1:
Try this:

1. Open the Odin One-Click from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989

2. Pull the battery out of the phone, and then replace it

3. Plug the phone into the computer while holding down both volume buttons. It should boot into download mode. When Odin recognizes the phone click start and it should flash back to stock JF6 and you'll be able to start again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] driftking_07:
I guess u can restore to stock using odin by getting into dowload mode.

Try searching odin master clear. It will have all the steps in the thread.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] designgears:
Cute story...

Just get into download mode and use Odin, when it goes black it just means the software crashed, not a big deal.

Open Odin

select the files

pull the battery, unplug the usb cable...

put in the battery

hold volume up and down at the same time

plug in the usb cable

keep holding the volume buttons undow you get into download mode

click start in odin
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
Have you put the phone into download mode yet? Worth the phone off Hold both volumes for 2 sec then plug in the data cable while still holding volumes, hold untill a big yellow sign shows on the screen. If you verify that you have download mode, then you can odin flash.

Ok I was late on this one
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmvik:
Omg, thank you, I had to start the Download mode first - then plug USB in.... the tutorial said plug in THEN start. Ok now Odin recognized my phone but said FAIL

Did you put the files in the slots? click on the btton next to the slots and put the correct files there. Odin has to be running before you enter download mode. Put the files in the slots and then hit start. if you are using this http://www.ponack.net/designgears/index.html.

If you are trying to flash stock jsut use this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=731989 start Odin enter download mode and this requires you to enter nothing. Just click start.

Start odin, put files in appropriate slots, tick repatriation in case the lagfix ext4 partition remains, then put phone in download mode, then flash
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msm903:
Try this sir.

Unplug usb cable.. and turn off the phone, by pulling the battery if you need ot.

Close ODIN and REOPEN ODIN.

replace the battery HOLD down VOL+&- and plug in the usb cable. the phone should go into download mode. Odin should recognize the phone. At that point hit Start.

Odin acts strangely if it doesn't detect the phone at a certain time.

Always close Odin between attempts.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
You should have Odin open before you enter download mode or Odin won't see it. At least that's how I understand it, it never works if the phone is in download mode before Odin is running for me. And I flash all the time. 6 times today.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dani897:
Ok you have the one click, if it doesn't work if odin is started first, boot into recovery, master clear with odin, pull battery, boot into download, flash.

Use method from my prior post to enter download mode.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhiannon224:
The OP appears to be using Odin one click and it is preloaded with JF6, no need to insert anything, but to update to the Cognition 2.2 beta 5.5 you need the stand alone Odin in the .zip you download and insert the files into the slots. Different Odin.

Please update if it works for you or not.

This is my moderate use. Few web here and there facebook, some calls/texts and instant messaging for a good 3hrs

I am running cog 2.2b5

Just wanted to compare battery life and post the rom you are running too
[Captivate General] orlandoxpolice:
my battery life sucks. i get about 10% per hour....
[Captivate General] vietn95:
What Rom are you using?
[Captivate General] eatkabab:
yeah my batt isn't too great either. 2 days on Cog V5 now. Each day has been roughly 10hrs with about 4.2hrs use. Each day I ended with maybe 1-2% left.

Is this normal? Froyo didn't help a bit. In fact it may have made it slightly worse.
[Captivate General] vietn95:
When I flashed b5 ... it was great. Then I found my gps sucks on it so I flashed again and I found that the battery drains like water 1% every 5 mins! ( Idk what's going there) Then, I flashed again and the above post is my result and my gps still sucks. So maybe if you flash it again it might help. I re partitioned in odin as well.
[Captivate General] drepschultz:
I am using Froyo (JI6) with lagfix and I get a consistatnt 12+ hours of moderate use. I usually charge my phone every three days.
[Captivate General] orlandoxpolice:
Cog 2.1.7

I have to charge my phone every night. I have used multiple roms from cog 2.1 and even cog 2.2 as well as stock and it all seems the same.
[Captivate General] Smallsmx3:
There is no way that is an accurate picture... there is no way you made phone calls or used the facebook app without it showing up in usage.... u may have gotten 40% out of 12hrs but you did nothing with your phone
[Captivate General] vietn95:
all my calls are usually short and yes i used facebook app and facebook browser as well.
[Captivate General] jfiveeight:
I use tons of apps on my phone and the only things the show up in my battery usage are: Display, cell standby, phone idle and voice calls.
[Captivate General] pmpntl:
you need to recalibrate your batteries or flash from 100% as DesignGears had mentioned earlier.

i now flash from 100% batt life when upgrading to new ROMs. or do a search for battery calibration.
[Captivate General] gocats7:
Not sure how to do a screen shot but Im running 2.2 beta 5 and I thought battery life sucked but it was because I was checking it constantly and playing with GPS.

Today, after recalibrating battery stats two nights ago I have dropped 3% in 3 hrs of standby and very, very light use.

Also, to recalibrate battery stats I downloaded terminal emulator and did the following

su

rm /data/system/batterystats.bin

I had drained it fully down to 1-2%, did the above commands, plugged it in and charged to 100%. You must be rooted to do it this way I would think since Im using su for superuser.
[Captivate General] vietn95:
Yea, I recalibrate the battery on my 2nd flash. the first flash my battery was draining literally 1% per minute. So I reflashed (I thought something went wrong on my 1st flash) and recalibrated now it's normal again.

gocats7: Yup cog comes rooted :)
[Captivate General] gocats7:
Cognition is awesome. With all the features built in, the att crapware stripped out I dont see myself ever running a stock ROM again. In regards to battery though, I think its at least as good as stock if not better. I havent had 2.2 beta 5 loaded long enough to really tell.
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
I've never had poor battery life. I did have that "new phone syndrome" when I got it and had to charge it a lot. But now I'm going around a day and a half on a charge with moderate use. I use wifi everywhere I can and try to minimize the time the screen stays on.
[Captivate General] nybmx:
Have you found that wifi has been helping your battery life? When I have mine on I lose battery at ~5-10% an hour. With it off I lose 1-2% an hour. I have to switch it off nightly so that I don't have to charge my phone again in the morning.
[Captivate General] gicuenitro:
Just the thread I was looking for...

I just recently bought a captivate that had the battery problems it seems so many are having with random shutdowns etc. I would get maybe 12 hours before getting the recharge notice. And that is with very little use. So, along with the advice from these forums, I had it replaced within my 30 days and immediately noticed a difference in the way the phone felt(if that even makes sense). It seemed like the screws were tighter, it was cleaner and it way out performed my previous captivate. Had me thinking I was given a display model or something.

So, to keep it short....I just plugged in after (for me) a very impressive 64 hour strech with moderate useage, some gaming and movie watching. Could not be happier with this phone right now. I cannot for the life of me figure out how such an impressive spec'd phone can use so very little power while locked. It makes me feel like a proud parent...lol.

I <3 My Captivate...:D
[Captivate General] Dave the Knave:
I have actually found my battery lasts longer with wifi on. I only turn it off when I leave the house. For me the wifi seems to be a lot more power/data efficient then my data connection. I can use the phone all day on wifi and still have 20% left at the end of the day whereas when I've been out all day long using data I can barely make it home without it *****ing at me to charge the phone.

[Captivate General] keitht:
I have had the best battery life yet with Cog 2.2 Beta 5.5 and migrating my Exchange server to Google Apps Premium so I do not need to use stock corporate email app anymore. I am pretty happy with this so far although I have only used the new beta for a day so far.

As a bonus, I am even using Live Wallpaper.
[Captivate General] danspeed3:
27hr, just dropped below 30%. Love it
[Captivate General] deanhatescoffee:
I'm so jealous of some of you getting more than a day's worth of battery out of the Captivate. I wish I could go 2 days between charges, but I just don't see how that would be possible (unless I didn't mind walking around with a dead phone, that is... which I would mind). With what I consider moderate usage - installing a couple apps, using the Browser for a half-hour, making two 3-minute phone calls, 10 text messages, checking email but not downloading huge attachments - I'm down to 15% or less. I've used the stock ROM and a few Cognition 2.2 betas, and not one of them seems any better than another. :\
[Captivate General] Demented71:
The most impressive thing to me is that this is an eBay battery:
[Captivate General] danspeed3:
Finally decided to charge it. Almost made it to 48hr, but had an pretty long phone call.
[Captivate General] manlisten:
Setting WiFi to turn off when the screen is off greatly improves standby performance. My phone loses about 5% battery overnight (about 7 hours) whereas it would go down by close to 15% over the same span before.
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
You need to tell us how much display time is used and call time etc. Mine could go for probably a week if i didnt do anything with it.

Anybody else that posts the battery use pic please specifi all the info so we get an accurate idea
[Captivate General] mmm_tacos:
I've already posted this in other threads, but here is my best time. Wanted 72hrs, but had an important call that I couldn't risk it for.

Would estimate:

1 hour web surfing

30 mins email

2hrs talk

15mins text

10mins alarm (I have it set to answer 5 math problems on hardest setting :) )

Used NoLED to display messages on phone with a 5 minute timeout so I saw them while I was at work and didn't need to keep checking my phone.

Stock JH7

Using Cognition at the moment. Past two days I've charged phone twice each day. Doh
[Captivate General] danspeed3:
Well, the phone display was on at least half the time. Hence from the battery status update. Use some math to figure it out.

I was facebooking, listening to music, checking email and texts. I played a little angry birds as well

Took some phone calls. A couple over 10 minutes long. Didn't even turn off the 3g. Ran Wi-fi when I was home, dont get that stuff at work.

Oh yeah, I also slept during that time. That helped conserve power :D

I'm sorry I don't run around with a note pad checking off how long I bookfaced.

Turn off background data and for the most part I've been using the facebook and messaging widgets in launcherpro. Since then it seems my battery is going great. Using Cog 2.2.6.

Sorry my battery life > yours.
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
Well i highly doubt your display was on half the time cause that means it woulda been on for about 21 hrs and thats just not possible. The 50% is just the amount of battery you used with the display being on. And im not asking you to run around with a note pad all you have to do is click on say display and it will tell you how many hours it was on same for everything else, cell standby etc
[Captivate General] danspeed3:
I am pretty compulsive with turning on the screen to see if I have messages. Trust me I was surprised as well. Ever since I updated to cog 2.6 I've had this battery life.
[Captivate General] roadrash7:
All im sayin is next time you get through a day of use click on display and see what your "time on" says.
[Captivate General] Little Dragon:
