I also wanted to say happy holidays to all the regulars on the di11igaf ROM forum, especially di11igaf and d1g1talphyre. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Video recording in camera suddenly stopped working. All I installed were two games.
[Captivate Android Development] justmde:
Are you using tibu?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I used tibu to restore some non system apps. After installing them I rebooted my phone n checked camera. Both photo n video were working.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
Happy holidays everyone. After tomorrow ill be back on it trying to look into the few problems I've seen posted and see what I can do and start looking into the next version
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Ok. Holding off till the next release for this cam fix. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
Yeah mine is broke too. I'll change cameras out until I fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Could you please post a working camera here so I too can make use of it.
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
I certainly will. It may be late or tomorrow though. The fam keeps yelling at me for playing on the hone too much. :D

[Captivate Android Development] justmde:
A few quick things I noticed. For the first time in a while I have kept this rom completely stock. The battery drain on wifi was pretty bad plus when you reboot you lose wifi. So I flashed telus and have no more problems.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Actually, I have tried out quite a few 2.2 ROMs, and noticed that literally on all these ROMs WiFi has been a huge hog!
[Captivate Android Development] Eschmacher:
Merry christmas everyone! :D

Sent from my Captivate -- Di11igaf's 3.0.2
[Captivate Android Development] justmde:
I have to agree with you wifi is a hog. I believe it has to do with it always on even when you put the screen to sleep. Sorry if I was not clear before telus is just a modem that I put over jk3. It seemed to clear up the problem of wifi being on at boot. And just seemed to get me about about the extra hour and half of battery. Under very heavy usage im at the inlaws. I will see how proforms in real life in a week or so.

Edit no clue on gps im stuck here for a while
[Captivate Android Development] justmde:
Happy Holidays to all
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
No offense, but lol @ how the punctuation changes meanings. "Under very heavy usage im at the inlaws." Looks like ur inlaws are putting u to heavy use.
[Captivate Android Development] xterminater07:
how do i apply lagfix for this roms? I looked under advanced in clockwork but do not see that option. Or do I not need it since it's built in?
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
Gps is the best I've ever seen on my phone with this rom. Have no idea why, but it is rocking.
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
Yeah, it applies it for you on first boot after flash. Voodoo.
[Captivate Android Development] justmde:
None taken, but maybe a little to much wine was.
[Captivate Android Development] deanhatescoffee:
I LOLed too. :-)
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I noticed that battery was having more drain on 3.0.2 compared to other versions of this ROM. After some searching, found out that the culprit was the gallery sensor bug. Attached screenshots for the same.

So now I replaced the gallery with the modded gallery from SGS tools. Now I don't seem to have the sensor issue, but lost the ability to set separate wallpapers as mentioned in point 2 above.
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
My gps is locking really fast and tracking excellent. I can't get Google Navigation to work though. It just says "checking navigation availability". Gps works perfect on every other program. Anybody having this issue?
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
Can you post the new gallery.apk (the modded one) so maybe dilli or digi can add the script from their gallery to set seperate wallpapers, if digi and dilli have free time? I am out and won't have a cpu otherwise I would do it.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Here you go.

This is the one I downloaded from SGS tools.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Question for people who've been using this ROM in 2.5 and 3.0.x.

Does anyone else too see a drop in battery time. I have a feeling my backup time reduced between 2.5 and 3.0.

I am on 3.0.2 losing close to 1-2% per hour, even in idle with wifi, bluetooth off.
[Captivate Android Development] smokestack76:
I just flashed a few hours ago but so far batt has not dropped much at all.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Could you please tell me how much charge drop (in percentage) do u see in an hour of standby with:

1. wifi on (with the sleep policy set to "when screen turns off"), and

2. wifi off.
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
also did you do battery stats clear?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Yes. I did that.

Edit: Just now disabled voodoo, and wiped battery stats. Got to see if that helps.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Finally got camera working - both for photos and for camcorder.

Camera app is attached to this post.

Found this camera app here on some other thread. Here is the thread:

Sorry I did not get back to on the camera thing. Too much rum:D. Anyway, after trying cameras from several roms, I just reflashed 3.0.2 and everything is fine. Navigation and video recording both working now. Who knows... Anyway, Merry Christmas.
[Captivate Android Development] d1g1talphyre:
will be making sure this hits the next build all. sorry haven't been on all day. had a woman to propose to this morning lol
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Wonderful news. So when is the big day :-)
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
Wow thats big... I am guessing all went well?
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
Guys I think its just me because I have recently been restoring a lot of things i shouldn't and messing with stuff, but does anyone have problems with any apps from market that use camera? I mean they don't work for me. examples are barcode scanner, camera360, and other apps that use the camera of phone.
[Captivate Android Development] sublimaze:
j/k

congratulations, bro :D
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I put up a camera.apk file in a couple posts above this. Try using it n see if the issue still persists.
[Captivate Android Development] d1g1talphyre:
lol! thanks bro :)
[Captivate Android Development] d1g1talphyre:
yes, it did. very well :D

now, that xmas is done. i'll have some time to get back to themeing and skinning things out.

I have been flash happy flashing many other roms but am about to come back to this one because it is the best. I just read the above thread and didn't notice before but this would be really annoying. Is this fixed/ does touching the screen cause the bottom buttons to light up? apparently axura got it working so it is defintely possible.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
i wish everyone would stop saying AXURA fixed it because AXURA was NOT an i9000 rom. it was a vibrant rom...
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
Ok my bad dude... I wasn't comparing I was just trying to say that it isn't really impossible or undoable. I won't say it again. No offense intended.

So the market apps are working for you?
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Never had a problem with market any time.

Also tried using camera through a couple of apps like shop savvy, n it works, if that's what u meant to ask.
[Captivate Android Development] joeshmoe08:
alright i'll reflash and stop messing with random stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
But why do u need bottom buttons to light up when using touch screen. When using touchscreen most of the time for most apps we don't the buttons to light up. Plus anyways we all wud've memorized the buttons n locations. :-)

I think this is more of a personal preference.

Even little battery saved is saved.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I think that's how the issue was found. Plus I wasn't even messing with anything when my cam started giving this error when switching to video mode.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
The issue is fixable. It was fixed with 2.5 along with home button haptic feedback. If I can get haptic working I could get that working also. With any stock captivate or vibrant firmware home button haptic and the buttons lighting up anytime you touch the screen will work. Although I haven't looked into it too deeply just cause of lack of time, I just need to find the correct lines of code to replace in android.policy.jar to fix it.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
I have looked into the issue a little bit, but no matter what I try neither me or d1g1 could replicate the issue. There has to be a common denominator that's breaking the camera whether its an app or a widget like widger locker(I think someone said that was causing the problem for them) cause I don't know of another way for the camera to work when first flashed then to stop working suddenly for a few people. Either way ill put the camera.apk that was posted a few pages ago in the next version if it is a guaranteed fix for whatever is causing the problem.

Edit: and for whoever posted problems about the market problems im pretty sure its just the android market in general having problems probably cause its massively overloaded with all the new people with android phones. I was suddenly having problems along with my wifes phone on stock ji6 2.2 leaked.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Do we "really" need to fix this? Can we make this as user customizable, if possible?
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
Ya deff. Im not too worried or concerned with the light. Mostly home button haptic. Just saying both of the issues are kinda tied together
[Captivate Android Development] momulah:
Hey Im the one stated widget locker was the problem. I installed each app one by one. I restarted after widget locker installed then boom camcorder stopped working. I figured it had to be the problem until two others not using widget locker started having the same issue. Whatever the case the camera.apk posted did fix the issue so far with all my apps including widget locker working and different camera programs working perfectly.
[Captivate Android Development] mashosho:
running 3.0.2 very stable. everything works like it should if not better, minus the haptic feedback on the bottom row buttons. love the theme, and the speed. this is how cap should have came out the box. even battery life is better. thanks di11igaf and d1g1talphyre!
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Ok. I am back again. I was getting a little concerned abt my battery dying out a little faster compared to 2.5, and went around this XDA world flashing one ROM after another... I think I flashed like about 6-7 ROMs. And, am back. :-)

Getting back to v2.5 now, for its extended battery backup providing me a day of moderate use and still being left with about 50% juice by the end of day.

"Welcome myself back"
[Captivate Android Development] sublimaze:
welcome back

i've said it before, but i'll say it again: if your battery doesn't last through the day, do yourself a favor and get an extra battery. you will enjoy the phone so much more when you aren't watching the battery meter every moment. plus, you'll be able to stick with a rom because you *like* it, rather than settling for one because you get another 30-60 mins of juice

sent from my captivate + di11igaf 3.0.2
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Its more like moderate day of use n come home with over 45% battery, no other rom came even close to this v2.5
[Captivate Android Development] bclark:
Completely agree. I don't even charge my phone anymore, just the battery.

Sent from my Dilligafed Captivate while Xcalibur chops you down.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Not to find a mistake with anyone here, not to start a flame war:

3.0.2 --> on edge, wifi off, 6.5 hours standby, battery down by 7%

2.5 --> on edge, wifi off, 6.5 hours standby, battery down by 3%

I hope this explains why I made the switch to 2.5.

My personal preference, if I have like 40% battery left by the time I reach home after a day of moderate phone usage, I am good. And I have a spare battery at home, but do not want to use it. :-) Well, thanks to dilli/digi, I hope I won't need to use that battery.

On 2.5, here are my stats of what I call a day of moderate usage:

~14 hours standby

1-2 hours calls, of which an hour of calls on bluetooth

~2 hours of display on for texting, emails, etc, with brightness at minimum levels

2 emails pushing like 20 mails

google voice pushing like 150-200 messages a day

XDA browsing for like 15-30 mins

WiFi on for like 30 mins in the morning at home before I leave to work

I am on EDGE all the time, since I don't need 3G speeds, and don't have a good 3G network coverage at my work location.

After all this, at the end of day, I have like 60% battery left on 2.5. I NEVER got this kind of battery left on any other ROM.

@digi/dilli --> After I installed 3.0.2, and then reverted to stock and installed 2.5, I think some setting got persistant, and my voice is noticeably on the same levels of 3.0.2.
[Captivate Android Development] psufan5:
How did you get your phone to default to edge?

And there is no way you had 60% battery life left after all of that. Your battery is either messed up and needs to be calibrated, or you are really mistaken.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Check my other posts. I even posted the screenshots. And sir, I recalibrate the battery every time I flash a new rom (I flash at 100% battery). I said ~60%. See my post below for the exact stats.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9892163&postcount=43

There were times when with abt 1.5 hours calls and 1-1.5 hours display on I had 62-63% battery (rest all unchanged) left by the time I reached home.

I checked in the morning even today after I loaded this new ROM y'day and did a recalibrate last night: for like 4-5 mins of display on battery life reduced by 1%.

And to turn on EDGE, it would be under Settings --> Wireless and Networks --> Mobile Networks --> Network Mode --> Select GSM only
[Captivate Android Development] psufan5:
SO would you say EDGE is the main reason you have so much battery life?

I am not on this rom currently but in my ROM i dont have this option.
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Exactly!!! EDGE uses far less battery power than 3G. So unless I am on a data heavy app, I am on EDGE all the time.

Thumb rule: If u r getting 5 hours talk time on 3G, u would get atleast 7-8 hours talk time on EDGE.

Plus ur phone would heat less, and less heat means improved battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] psufan5:
Perception rom doesnt have it :\
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I used a tool named something similar to "Sam Serv" or something similar to it. This opens up a system menu where u can change system settings. U can set it to GSM mode. But the issue with this app is that u would need to do this every time u restart ur phone.

Edit:

1. Open phone

2. Enter the code *#*#197328640#*#*

3. Select [1]

4. Select [8]

5. Select [4]

6. Select [3]

Note: The back button on these screen will close the app. To go back, click on "menu" soft key, and select back.
[Captivate Android Development] sublimaze:
i doubt you'll start a flame war in this thread. everyone here is pretty laid back, nobody has to prop up their self-esteem with a pissing contest :rolleyes:

nice stats, btw. i've never had more than 40% battery at the end of the day with any rom. but then, i burn up the airwaves with my phone

my comment about an extra battery wasn't directed specifically at diablo. i really meant it for anyone that owns a captivate. i don't understand why some ppl are willing to drop $300-500 on a smartphone that will do just about everything but cook your dinner, but they won't spend $15 on an extra battery :confused:

if a phone manufacturer provides the option of a swappable battery, there is proly a good reason (ie, don't expect to go days between charges) and users should take advantage of the feature

perception is a (fairly) solid rom, but it is definitely not the only game in town. i was on various perception betas for a couple of weeks, and it just wasn't reliable enough for my needs. nothing against DG, he puts out some amazing work. but i don't have a land line so my cell phone must be available 24/7, and i didn't get that with perception. di11igaf's rom has been bulletproof so far
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
100% with you on this. Well put sentences. :)
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
I'm without a charger for long periods at work some days but stay on my phone most of the day. I have two spare batteries. That's why I guess I always miss the point in the battery fights. I burn through mine at will and don't gas. just pop another one in. It's just a bonus I guess that this 3.0.2 rom is getting good life for me. when I turn the screen off, it seems to lose at most about 1-2% per hour.
[Captivate Android Development] d1g1talphyre:
which kernel are you using? the stock 3.0.2, or did you OC/UV with a setiron kernel?

HAHA, nevermind, just noticed your signature lol
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
I am not sure if anyone noticed this or not when phone is in sleep mode:

on v2.5 - <1% per hour

on v3.x - 1-2% per hour

I noticed this when I put my phone aside when I sleep at night. Last night my phone went from 100 to 97 for 6.5 hours of sleep time. When on 3.0.2, this used to be like 100 to 92 or so.

Is this due to the change in kernel (I hope I am using the right term here, still layman in these terms)?
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
Actually I changed to the setiroN 1.5.6 two days ago. I have it limited to 1200 and did have it uv'd but got sod yesterday so I dropped the uv file. With pretty heavy uv yesterday, I couldn't seem to kill it. well until it charged all night :-)
[Captivate Android Development] d1g1talphyre:
how far down did you have it UV'ed
[Captivate Android Development] d1g1talphyre:
i used over 5gigs of data last month. <1% or 1-2% battery drain while sleeping is not currently an issue for me lol
[Captivate Android Development] diablo009:
Oh wow. I have my limit at just 2GB. Did u manage to pull ur iphone unlimited plan to captivate?
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
150,150,150,125,100,75. I had no problems with those settings on 147 1200 on axura or 2.5 of this rom. I think it's the kernel version. I'm going to use this one a few more days with the volts more modest.
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
anybody that was grandfathered in to unlimited data can keep it no matter what phone you have. I burn thru way more than 5gb a month.
[Captivate Android Development] d1g1talphyre:
iphone, HA! lol, no. There were unlimited data plans for all smart phones before att went to tiered pricing on them. i've had that plan for several years.
[Captivate Android Development] shadowxraptor:
I'm having trouble with my captivate. I installed V.2.0.1, and a little later I decided to try a different rom. After installing the new rom, my phone will not get past the at&t screen.

I've used both button combination methods.
[Captivate Android Development] di11igaf:
Im not really sure what your on or trying to flash to by your post. This rom is NOT a darky rom so im not sure if you flashed darkys or mine. Any of my roms just flash stock then flash my rom with odin one click then install my rom with clockwork. Version 2.5 is the most stable and everything works pretty much 100%. Everything in 3.0.1 and 2 work but its still technically beta since home button haptic does not work yet like it does with 2.5. Everything else is fine.

If not that could be the problem. Once you get back to stock with odin one click you should be good again to flash whatever.
