Swype is an acquired taste. I use it exclusively in portrait but will switch to Swiftkey in landscape.

I think one of the problems frequent flashers have with Swype is they're always starting from scratch with it. The more you use it's corrective feature, the more it remembers your swype patterns for words and becomes more accurate with time.

After two or three weeks with one install, I rarely have to make corrections or even look at the screen.

I read an article about a SIP preference survey. One-fingered users love Swype. Those that prefer two-finger (thumbs), like the more traditional keyboards. Makes sense. To each his own. You want to try something weird, try 8pen! That sucker has one steep learning curve!

I have a feeling that DG is having some problems with his new ROM. Like any development, you change something here and it affects something else.... $10 says it is not coming tonight! If he pushes it out anyway, it will be probably buggy. Does this seem obvious to anyone else? I mean, if he wasn't having problems with it, it would be available right? From what I know of DG, he will get it out in the next few days. He doesn't seem to send out junk. He will wait till it is stable. We will all be flashing by Monday!!!!!!

Search didn't reveal anything...
[Captivate Android Development] loonieryan:
Wow thanks for the tremendous help! :rolleyes: I did search and haven't found a solution other than using APN Backup & Restore.

Same problem here, posted just an hour or so before you. If you have your Captivate still running stock then install "APN Backup" and do a backup of your APN. Then after you've flashed Perception use "APN Backup" to restore from the backup you created earlier.

My issue now is that I didn't create the backup before flashing to Perception. If anyone has the APN XML file that was backed up by APN Backup for Rogers please share it.
[Captivate Android Development] Voicebox:
Any pattern unlocking results from doing an update without wipe via ROM Manager, or perhaps a restore of system data from TIBU onto a new install followed by a reboot. Can't remember which. Basically it knows you have a pattern unlock, but seems to not retain the pattern. Just have to go into the security settings and redo it and it'll work fine afterwards.

One cool thing is when it happens, you just need to connect any two dots to unlock the screen. It's easier than swiping the regular unlock screen.

I posted a backup xml file from build 4 maybe two days ago in this thread. I don't have installed the app anymore.

I had earlier used the same files, just flashed the zip with clockwork recovery and rogers + rogers mms apns were all fired up. everything's seemingly been excellent so far. :p
[Captivate Android Development] Rikusaki:
Reverting back to Build 4....

Build 5 constantly freezes and is un-usable.
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:
you should turn off oc settings before you revert--your cpu might just be handling the oc settings badly. give it a try (if its not too late)
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
Hmm...it takes me less time to type a word out on the traditional keyboard and it automatically corrects my mistakes without me having to hit anything but the space bar to start on the next word. It's very rare that the autocorrect picks the wrong word. It's cool though. That's why we have different keyboards to choose from. :D
[Captivate Android Development] uiskibum:
you must have had a bad flash. i'm on 5 and haven't had any freezes.

Where can i learn to make roms?

ROM school.

lol ass if i knew where in the bay area u be at i would smack ya lol j/k that was funny though. btw where in the bay area u from? i am at redwood city
[Captivate Android Development] loonieryan:
I fixed my APN issue using app "APN Backup & Restore". First take a backup of your APNs. Then place the attached XML file on your device under I:\ApnBackupRestore. In this example, I: is the drive letter of my device in Windows.

Then run "APN Backup & Restore" again and tell it to restore from the XML file you just dropped in that directory.

Alternatively, you can merge the 2 entries for Rogers into the XML file that gets backed up by the app.

Good luck!
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
Just had the camera hang upon taking a picture, with the phone eventually soft rebooting. Happened again after the reboot.

Anyone else experience this?

disclaimer: yes i flashed to stock, no i didn't restore system apps / data under titanium, no i haven't flashed other kernel's /etc lol except for a frameworkres theme
[Captivate Android Development] dc41:
Forget betting the $10. Just donate it to DG! He's earned it regardless of when the new rom arrives. :)
[Captivate Android Development] loonieryan:
Ok, so I resolved the 3G issue by applying the right Rogers APN via "APN Backup & Restore" but now I've discovered a new problem that's completely unrelated to the APN.

My incoming SMS messages are arriving with a timestamp that's 5 hours behind (seems like GMT-10). So I send a message to someone at 10:10PM EST and the incoming message a minute later would have a timestamp of 5:10PM.

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] flucks:
As it stands right now, I am at 33 hours since charge with moderate to heavy use. DG, you're awesome. Thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] loonieryan:
Found the same problem here and fixed via smstimefix.

Does anyone know how to fix this in the ROM itself for us Rogers users?
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Haven't had any problems with camera. Just used it earlier quite a few times.

What is causing me to not be able to connect to Wifi? I can't connect to any Wifi, not just my own router. Should I just wait for Build 6 and see what happens?

Edit: And why, when I am sending a new text message and selecting someone to send it to, everyone's name appears twice?
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Been running Axura for the last couple days while I wait for the new Perception ROM

Likes...

Selectable unlock screens...LOVE that.

More stable than P5 was for me (about the same as P4)

Black Froyo theme is really nice http://picasaweb.google.com/marcb143/BlackFroyoForObsidian?fgl=true&pli=1# http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=845530

Dislikes

I am not crazy about Setrion's kernels and found them to be the cause of Kernel Panic, and other clocking issues. looking forward to DG's release.

BTW one can cause Kernel panic by putting in the battery while the phone is on the charger LOL,,,ask me how I know that...

I think the next ROM will be a major change though and may be buggy for awhile.....

or not..:D
[Captivate Android Development] Mechpilot:
I think they where just reflashing on top to fix it. Don’t quote me on this. No wipe or anything else.
[Captivate Android Development] Mechpilot:
Any one know if oc/ uv will be included? Never had it before but love the battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] fruitpunch36:
This is weird. I just flashed this and when it was booting up it gave me the perception logo and then it went to the home screen. I don't usually touch it when its doing the media scanning so i let it sit there. A few seconds later, it went right back to the perception screen and its been like that for 10 minutes. It would be great if anyone can tell me what to do. I dont want to yank out the battery in case it ruins something. 20 mintues now.... it vibrated a few times before doing this too
[Captivate Android Development] div3rg3nt:
What voltage settings are you running?
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
How did you flash it
[Captivate Android Development] kingfisher1111:
Can someone tell me how to flash this ? I am currently on Axura and my battery is draining so fast.
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
will the headset be fix on build 6? =(. i think this kernel project was supposed to be on cog b7 before hehehe, but anyways i hope dg can fix the headset issue im back to cog b6 again its more stable for me exept its not that snapy like persception and no BLN.
[Captivate Android Development] womcs:
I will donate if/when he provides a ROM where all the features work. The closest one so far was COG 2.4. These are attempts to create a fully working ROM. Maybe that is not what he is attempting.... Either way I enjoy flashing them to see what he is doing with them. Meanwhile, I will bet with my money. No takers? Ahhh.... too late it is already tomorrow here in the east. I must admit that I am not surprised I had no takers. Seems everyone agreed with me.

Maybe the problem with these ROMs and their delayed availability is that DG is too drunk to code due to all the beer fund donations. Let the man work sober, deliver a great product and THEN give him money to drink. Just my thoughts!
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:
you make it seem like he owes you a rom.
[Captivate Android Development] kppanic:
Exactly what I needed! Cheers!
[Captivate Android Development] womcs:
He doesn't owe anyone anything including me. He is freely sharing these ROMs for those who want to try them out. Why do you think I feel he owes me anything?
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Do you know or think Black Froyo will work with Perception? It looks really good. I am using Darkness right now and love it. But that theme looks pretty damn awesome IMHO
[Captivate Android Development] fatttire:
troll...
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Trying to put black froyo on perception will end badly I'm afraid...it is made to go on a totally different rom base.
[Captivate Android Development] fruitpunch36:
How do I uninstall an addon? I didn't really like the bounce animations so how do i uninstall it?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Flash the Stock Animations in the OP. It will get rid of your theme though, if applicable
[Captivate Android Development] fufuplatter:
Look. You do what you want with your money. DG isn't asking you to pay anything for using his concoctions. Maybe he has a real life on the side? I really don't understand why anyone can demand anything from him, or any of the devs. Think about it. It's not like you paid for anything here to begin with. Oh, sure, maybe you can be annoyed with what Samsung/AT&T did, but it isn't right to take that out on devs who are putting stuff out here for our benefit.

Remember, if a custom ROM doesn't work, you still have stock to revert to. That's the actual product you paid for. :rolleyes:
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:
thank you. lol
[Captivate Android Development] fruitpunch36:
thanks for the help
[Captivate Android Development] womcs:
Your thought processes scare the **** out of me! I am not demanding anything from anyone here. Please read carefully and think about what your saying. I actually agree with everything else you said. Take a chill pill.
[Captivate Android Development] darkamikaze:
I remember long ago .. when it was SRE... it was less demanding, and much decent conversation happened in the thread. Can we stop the bicker and either contribute something in a post or hold off on posting.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] used2hvatreo:
+infinty!!
[Captivate Android Development] fufuplatter:
Actually, you might want to reconsider what you posted. I really shouldn't have to break down what you posted for you. That would really add more to what is already unnecessary chatter here.

I'm glad you agree with what I said.
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
I dont know why but when I start any of the installed games on perception, it hangs badly and I have to take out the battery each time....can anyone help me out here. I was running cog2b6 previously..and restored app only not data or system data with Tibu..any help??

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:
did u turn off lagfix before u installed perception? >__>
[Captivate Android Development] fufuplatter:
Which games?
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
yes...i flashed stock jf6 before perception..

homerun battle 3D , fruit ninja..
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Yep tried it anyways.. I figured what did I have to lose anyways... :) I am hoping to get DGs next version tonight anyways if we are lucky enough.

The theme made it to my bootanimation screen and just sat there... Oh well. I made a nandroid backup just before doing it so most is probably not lost anyways. Thanks for the reply too.
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:

build 2 and 4 were released on a weekday--at approx 12am PST, which is in about an hour. i'd say its too early to say theres not a release yet ;) iirc--hes in SLC, UT--meaning its about 1am there. so he generally stays up til 2am (his time) ;D
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
No problem it never hurts to try I guess lol I'm also hoping for a new release soon, I have been on stock all day waiting and I wouldn't wish this punishment on anyone. Its really hard to judge how much faster these roms make our phones til you try stock for a day to compare.
[Captivate Android Development] Con_Valian:
I have had to disable the overclocking because my phone freezes up. It all began whenever I played Homerun Battle 3D. My phone just cannot handle the OC, maybe yours cannot as well.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
<@designgears> and we have 1280oc/uv :)
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Nah..Pay for ongoing development.....Without it there would be no finished product, A ROM (or ANY SW based device) is NEVER finished. Can always be improved on and is always in beta state. Support keeps the developers interested and motivated, Financial support helps keep them taking those beer breaks which keeps them sane. DG doesn't beg or offer special treatment for donations like others. Which is why he deserves it more...
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
It was the only reason I flashed Axura instead of 2.3b4 while I wait for DG's next gem....

Sorry to hear it won't run on Perception. But Darkness was good too.
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
Does that mean Perc6 is ready? or almost ready? Inquiring minds would LOVE to know.
[Captivate Android Development] waghoba:
+1...I completely agree :)
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Also you have to realize this is a new custom kernel and not a port of another, so things may not move as fast as they have before when apks were basically changed and some lagfix scripts. I would rather wait another week for a stable ROM than re flash every day for minor updates for bugs that can only be found when multiple users are running the ROM.

Although with this Axura I am not sure my batteries will survive the drain.......that long..:D:D
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
DG you are a BOSS
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Have you tried disabling the OC/UV to see if that is your issue?
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Now its just a matter of deciding whether I want to use the OC/UV version or the non-OC/UV version...hmmmmm choices choices...lol.
