Hi Shep whats the difference between the 10.20 themed I9000 rom and the 10.25 one besides voodoo lag fix? and is in anyones opinion voodoo lag fix better than one click lag fix? I got OCLF to work but I was just wondering opinions about that too.
[Captivate Android Development] netnerd:
i get higher score Quadrant on Oclf than voodoo, but every1 said voodoo is better. so i switched to voodoo. haha
[Captivate Android Development] wmwilker:
from my limited understanding OCLF uses EXT2 which can have data corruption where Voodoo has EXT4 which can't (in a nutshell)
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
All file systems are subject to some amount of data corruption over time and usage.

The idea most have is that with things added such as online fragmentation and journaling ext4 reduces the opportunity for data corruption which in a way is true.

Neither ext2 or ext4 has ever had to my knowledge any greater issue with data corruption more than any other file system -- in my personal opinion the ext* file system is about the best file system around for hard drives on on pc's.

And lastly, the only real differences between ext2 and ext4 is the add on things such as online fragmentation and journaling etc.

So ext4 a little less susceptible to data corruption in the long run than ext2 -- for the average user i doubt there will much enough of a difference to notice or even enough data corruption to notice.

Although if you have a power interruption during a disk write on ext2 you should have a longer reboot the next time you restart your phone or computer as ext2 should complete a disk check to know where any corrupted files are -- if there are too many such interruptions over time on ext2 and no disk checks ever completed this will reach a point where you may have issues.

if using ext4 and there is a power interruption during a write operation -- there would still be the same data corrupted files as ext2 would have, it is just with journaling ext4 would already know where the break happened when the power interruption occurred and thus should know where the data corruption exits on the disk without doing a full disk check.

On the down side the add ons that make ext4 different from ext2 require more work and cpu overhead -- with journaling enabled there will be a minimum of two erases for every single write operation -- this means ext4 will not be quite as fast as ext2 -- again for the average person on day to day use this speed difference will be negligible.

Flashed the 10-25 fullt loaded version and had no antena coverage at all it kept switching from G to nothing but with no antena
[Captivate Android Development] evertec:
well OCLF uses an ext2 swap partition, while voodoo converts the whole filesystem to ext4
[Captivate Android Development] slider2828:
Quadrant don't mean **** really....

If you guys look at the universal lag fix, they have something called overkill which is really crazy and fast... But its a i9k based rom, and the problems occur from it....
[Captivate Android Development] wmwilker:
will it work with the reorient kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] hankito:
This makes me wonder if i took this -->xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=8762479

and threw reorient kernel on it, or is universal lag fix/overkill part of the kernel hmm why do I always have to play with my phone after i get it working just right...

GSM 850 Fix

Hey all,

I really like Tayutama and Shep's ROMs but I have been having a horrible time with the GSM 850 band that is scattered in some areas around here, After messing with all kinds of Modems and setting the bands, etc, I finally tried the jg8 modem and it works perfectly. I am not sure if the trick was how I did it or the modem itself but even after reading literally a thousand posts and trying everything alas I can use this ROM at my house :D

What I did was:

Flash to stock with Odin

Flash theJG8 Modem in Odin

CWM to Tayutama's ROM

And now if this holds up I can go back to running Shep's rom too!!!!!! :D

These builds seem much quicker than anything else out there at this time.

On a side note: Although the modem gave me nothing on the stock build after flashing to Tay's Rom I finally had full bars on GSM 850! I will test it on other bands tomorrow when I get out and report back
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Sztupy has the lag fix is built into the kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] hankito:
When I did this and it came up and it had all bands turned on it kept searching and searching constantly it drained my battery faster than I ever saw a battery get drain before and I couldn't hold a signal. I was just tying it for giggles jpm, jpk and jh2 all worked for me with jpm and jh2 being the best and im out in the high desert of los angeles county
[Captivate Android Development] AreikUSA:
i keep getting Data Network not available on my captivate help please...
[Captivate Android Development] JayPhill89:
did you enable the 850mhz band?
[Captivate Android Development] AreikUSA:
yes. follow all the steps, get one to 3 bars but no throw data
[Captivate Android Development] AreikUSA:
do i have to unlock my phone?
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
I just flashed Fully Loaded JPM\JI6 rom with I9000 reoriented kernel v2.1 10.23.2010, Voodoo & HSUPA (10-25-10), but i want the theme on this rom. How can i port the theme onto it?
[Captivate Android Development] wilsongis:
I had the same issue. Tried all hints and suggestions I could find. Nothing I did worked for the signal in my area when I switched towers. I have given up on the i9000 based roms.
[Captivate Android Development] crazililazn:
may be your location. i9000 roms suffer from reception in areas that use the 1900 wcdma band. At home, this is the band i use, and most of the time i get one bars, 2 at most.

While at my grandma's house, i use Wcdma 850, and i get fantastic reception, my download speeds are 2.8 Mb/s and Uploads of 1.4 Mb/s.

So it all depends on your location and what band you are using, and that is why there is such a mixed bag of results with the i9000 modems.

Only way we will get a FULLY FUNCTIONAL modem for ALL users is when the Bell Vibrant, gets froyo because Bell uses the same bands as AT&T and does support HSUPA.
[Captivate Android Development] bzzybfrm313:
Can someone please tell me what the H stands for where the 3g is suppose to be?
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
This is a bit of a guess but it is probably for HSPA+ (high speed packet access), the standard that includes HSDPA and HSUPA. HSPA+ is built on WCDMA. WCDMA qualifies as 3G technologies. HSPA+ is referred by some as 3.5G.

There is even some talk of some HSPA+ technologies being advertised as 4G, but according to the international standard the only technologies that currently qualify as 4G are wimax 2 and LTE.
[Captivate Android Development] bzzybfrm313:
Thanks dayv.just didnt want to get hit with roaming charges
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
Are you in the us on att?

If you are, then unless you have a really old plan, I'm pretty sure all atts phone plans are now nation wide coverage aren't they - could be wrong about this though.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
We live in an area where att bought a regional carrier and all towers are not converted to att yet so I have to select allow roaming for data access. I was assured by att that there are no roaming charges anywhere in the us when I called them the first time to see what was going on.

Sent telepathically using vulcan mind meld app.
[Captivate Android Development] dayv:
Yes. With their nationwide coverage plan there are no charges for roaming in the us, but they will cancel your service if you roam too much.

Now if you travel outside the us or get close enough to the boarder you cell phone connects to a tower across the boarder that is a different story.
[Captivate Android Development] jdubdieslo:
Thanks!

This rom is the ish. Its way faster the the Col B9.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
As you can see from my sig, I was a Cog user but not any more...at least not for now. :D
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
Tried out Cog 9, but I came back to the JPK. Simply the best GPS, hands down. Plus it seems the most stable.

Add the Tat theme + Voodoo would be my request.

Yes, I've tried every thing with the HSUPA >>> No go in my market.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
My HSUPA is working great...in fact I dont recall having a phone on the same ROM for this long since I started modding with my Tilt 2! :eek:

Dropped calls

I enabled the WCDMA 850 band and this rom is great and really fast. But Im getting alot of dropped calls. Any one else having this issue? also I notice when i get dropped calls it shows no bars on 3g in areas i usually have 3g, also I never see the phone display 2g/E(Edge). Does this phone support edge? I know with my N1 if 3g isnt there it drops down to 2g but not on this phone/rom. I just got my cap 3 days ago so im still learning about this phone. thanks for your help.

Stumped - what used to work, works no more...

A week ago, I was very happily running Shep's 10-14-10 JPM/JI6 Stock rom, with reorient v2.0 kernel, and the JPM modem.

For the last few days, I have been trying out the latest Cognition rom, Beta9.

I'm done, so I restored my nandroid backup to go back to the configuration in my opening sentence. I can no longer, under any configuration, connect to GSM850 (all I have at home) with JPM or JPK. They both connect to an unknown GSM1900 floating around my location, which is unsuable, I'm refused access (its NOT AT&T).

If I swap in a JI6 modem, I connect to GSM850 with no problem. Yes, I have enabled GSM850. In fact, I have set GSM850 as the ONLY band, again JI6 connects immediatly, JPM/JPK find nothing on 850.

This worked perfectly a week ago!

I've flashed back to JF6 and then did a fresh install, taking the exact same steps with the exact same files when I first set this up back on 10/14.

Anyone have ANY ideas on what I can try?

EDIT: So far I have tried JPM, JPK, JG8, JH2, every single eclair and froyo I9000 modem, and they all do the same, they see a GSM1900 band that I can't use, and even if forced to GSM850, none of them can see that band. Switch over to the JI6 modem, and it connects immediately to GSM 850. This used to work perfect, dang it!!!
[Captivate Android Development] prestonjb:
Well now running the 10/25 theme...

Not sure if 3g is fixed but know calendar is not.

Also I can't sync my facebook friends to my contacts!
[Captivate Android Development] AreikUSA:
can anyone tell me if the Fully Loaded JPK\JI6 rom with 2e kernel (10-23-10) has the Black Theme?

Tried it, and all is good with the world again. Back up on JPM.

This is just crazy though...
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Yeah, that was a long day of messing with everything before I finally tried it that way and could not believe it myself...that it why I sounded flabergasted and mystified, while excited at the same time making little sense in that post boomer quoted.lol

[Captivate Android Development] J-T:
I have also had some crazy issues with modems and the I9000 roms I had issues with the JPM modem just killing my battery so I decided to go to the JPK and everything seemed ok at first. Then I went out driving around and found out it didnt switch towers very well. So I flashed back to the JPM and now all of a sudden my battery life is great. So I'm scared to touch it now.. haha So far so good.

[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Tell me you are working on adding the 1.6Ghz to this Rom please please please! :-)

I need to find a reason to change roms...the one I have is too perfect LOL

I hope OCing does not mean losing HSUPA as it was before though.
[Captivate Android Development] wmwilker:
Shep if you do make an overclocked rom please make one that doesn't.

I plan to keep this phone for a while.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
And I guess that means you have evidence that OCing is going to kill the phone right? ;)

I plan to keep mine for a while too but I guess this is the old debate between OCers and non OCers.
[Captivate Android Development] wmwilker:
I'm very familiar with what it does to cpus on a computer.

Heat kills. If it doesn't generate any heat OCing then I'm all in.

Maybe we can get a Cooler Master V6 for this baby
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Yes heat kills but all CPUs have a certain amount of heat they can work at, i7 toasters anyone? Just because it feels hot to you, does not mean the CPU is going to die. I have been overclocking for years and years, part of pretty much every OCing forum around so I am extremely familiar with this and it is not the scary thing most people think. Never killed a CPU doing it and dont plan to start with my phone. ;)

Cooler Master V6? Come on..that is like something from Toys R Us...you want big like Noctua...here is my current pc (GTX295 is now a 480):
[Captivate Android Development] wmwilker:
Nice rig

I have an i7 930 running stock but I don't game on the computer. I like my 58" tv for that.

To each his own. I will likely not be OCing my phone though and I have very minimal lag and I'm sure that will improve too.

Have fun
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Thanks. I actually use a 60" 3D mitsu tv...after 3D vision I cannot game on 2D unless it is on my phone LOL

I dont mind about any lag, I want the extra speed for the Playstation emulator mainly since right now the code is a bit slow. :-)

WOW I am having a weird issue with Display using 99% no matter what setting I have for it.

I have it at the lowest brightness and still shows 99% most of the time or 97.

I am always connected to USB but I was testing battery life after reading so many reports and notice this ...whats going on?

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
Not uncommon for the display to show that it is using the vast majority of power...unless of course you are one of those that is getting two days on a charge with what they refer to as moderate use. For me, my display istypically on for more than 50% off the time that phone is powered on so display is always right up there

I have a bug to report. TV out is not working at all. All I get is a fuzzy screen.

Now I haven't tried to use TV out until last night, so I don't know if my Captivate has a hardware problem.

Can anyone else try TV out via 3.5mm jack to see if they get picture/sound?
[Captivate Android Development] arffer:
1) Depending on what part of the world you are in, and the type of TV you have, make sure in settings Display that you have the correct NTSC or PAL setting.

2) Are you using an official Samsung TV cable? There are reports of people have mixed results depending on the cable used.

Can you please explain how to flash jg8 modem using ODIN?

I flashed to Stock ROM and now I cannot get to Download mode

Nevermind. I did this

Connect usb to computer

Go to download mode using

Method 1:(ADB - from recovery or normally booted with usb debugging on)

1. Open a cmd prompt/console/shell

2. adb shell

3. adb reboot download

Flash modem
[Captivate Android Development] bleeman:
Remove Battery, Replace Battery, with phone off, press both Vol Up and Vol Down while inserting USB Cable, that will put you in Download mode. Unplug USB, open Odin, press phone button navigate to modem.bin file for jg8, insert USB and press start.

Any way to get cog style battery indicator on the Stock rom? I have been trying for days to hack the framework-res file with no luck. Tried compile decompile, copy you name it. For what ever reason if I put all the 100 battery icons and the corresponding xml file the battery indicator simply won't show. Bummer cause I love the rom just need the battery indicator. I have replaces all the apps that captivate specific from the JI6 build (i.e. Dialer with out the Video call option). One other thing thats still haunting me tis the Voice Search. It works for the first command such as "Text John", but if I try to hit voice icon again to speak instead of type I get an FC from Voice search. So close but no cigar :(
