I think I might wait a weekor two before I flash one of these I9000 roms. I was on Cognition 2.3b6 for a while and loved it, great speed, etc. I was prepared to flash this rom the other day and forgot to disable lagfix and soft bricked my phone. I'm on a mac so I was looking for a way to recover my phone.

To those of you who suggested Heidmall, thank you. Although after reading more about heidmall there is a problem with the Galaxy S phones where the program would not recognize the device. I could not get it to recognize my phone. I ultimately went to a friends house who has a PC and used Odin to restore stock JF6. Boy is it slow!!! lol

I may hang for a bit and let a more stable release come out.....easier said than done :). I get the ROM itch like most of us.

Any way DG keep up the good work and thank you xda for helping me recover my phone .
[Captivate Android Development] Captivate-me:
Please help me getting invalid argument

Please help me...I think I may have bricked my phone.

I tried flashing this rom and I keep getting a mounting/dev/block/loop2 on /dbdata failed: Invalid agrument.

Can someone Please...pleaseee help me with this. It's been this way for around an hour now.

TIA :(

Did you flash to the stock JF6 first? If not start over and flash the Stock JF6 first then install this ROM..
[Captivate Android Development] Captivate-me:
No I didn't. I don't know how to get back to the stock ROM. I don't see JF6 as an option. Forgive the ignorance, I am very, very new to Android.
[Captivate Android Development] SpOoNeeUs:
First of all, hi! First time poster but long time reader/troller (as some would like to say). Thanks for the wealth of information.

I'd like to add my experience on the alarm. I know I'm on Perception 4 (can't seem to keep up with DG) but the same thing happens to me and I can consistently reproduce it. When my alarm goes off, I sometimes accidentally hit the sleep/power button on the side instead of swyping to sleep and it restarts the phone. I thought it was a fluke but I've been able to repeat it consistently. Only a small thing considering all the pluses the rom brings. This may also be on Perception 5, since it was such a small isolated issue.

It's rare when a user is not able to keep up with a developer. Keep up the great work DG.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Got to this thread and download the JF6. Got to run to a meeting, will check back.
[Captivate Android Development] startngate:
This is why you should always read the first post before flashing any ROM ....

Second sentence of the first post .... and for that matter the entire thread, which will give you insight into all the bugs and fixes that have come up.

Flash stock JF6 before flashing this to avoid any issues, especially if you are running voodoo.

So go do a search for ODIN One Click ... read up about it. Then do it. That will get you back to a stock ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] Captivate-me:
okay, I will. Thanks so much for taking the time to respond.
[Captivate Android Development] SpOoNeeUs:
There's also a sticky at the top of the Captivate Android Development forum titled Captivate Bible. I got the Captivate in July as my first Android phone but if you follow the instructions in the bible and the wiki explicitly you shouldn't have a problem. It's worked for me and I'm new to Android too. The bible also has links for all the tools and web pages to the popular roms.

Hope this helps.

GPS Restore

Samsung just released a market app called GPSRestore. I am fixing to download it and see if it can fix my problem with GPS. I have gotten better GPS signalling with this rom (build 5) than with any other method but still having problems. For those wanting to try here is a link to a QR code for download.

[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
After 24 hours+ on this ROM my observations:

Faster than 4, but that's being nitpicky

More unstable than 4. I had it flake out on me during the initial install requiring a second install, plus issues others have reported.

GPS is worse on 5 than on 4.
[Captivate Android Development] \/icious:
i think the instabilty is caused by the jfs file system. i switched it to ext4 only and have not had any more problems

Rogers uisers...

For all you Rogers users out there, I had an issue with MMS messages not working. I tried all sorts of APN settings until I stumbled across these on the Rogers RedBoard site!!

Name: Rogers

APN: rogers-core-appl1.apn

Proxy: <not set>

Port: <not set>

Username: <not set>

Password: <not set>

Server: <not set>

MMSC: http://mms.gprs.rogers.com

MMS Proxy: 10.128.1.69

MMS Port: 80

MCC: 302 (retrieved from SIM)

MNC: 720 (retrieved from SIM).

Authentication type: <not set>

APN type: <not set>

I put those in, and voila!!! MMS is working once again :)

Not sure if these can be included in a future release, or if this helps anyone else in anyway!!!

And once again, thanks to DesignGears for making a wicked ROM, I'll be sending some beer funds yer way hopefully tonight. And to everyone else who has helped me *hugs* to you all. You all rock.
[Captivate Android Development] chasesavestheday:
is this any better than cognition? besides whats the hype about it being from an i9000?
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
its really not better at all...

we're all post happy and just like to make DG feel good about himself... shhhhh...
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Coming from the latest cognition to this rom, I feel like this is a faster rom then cognition. Large difference is the kernal. This kernal allows for over clock (I do not do this) and under volt (do not do this either) different lag fix options. To be honest something about the latest voodoo lagfix on cognition did not feel right to me.

This rom gives you access to HSPU which is faster data provided you have it in your area.

More our less it is on a cog base so the look and most of the feel remains the same. I do not see myself going back to cognition although I am watching the thread out of the corner of my eye
[Captivate Android Development] amwbt:
Does this rom suffer from the low media volume like Axura?
[Captivate Android Development] mdoctor:
Its not just your feeling... This build has a definitely faster kernel and better lagfix options, resulting in a more snappy performance. There is a subtle difference between smoothness (aka. Cog builds with Voodoo) and snappiness (aka. Perception builds). Having extensively used both versions, I can certainly say the Perception builds are snappier whether overclocked or not.

The ultimate custom ROM in my opinion would be the latest Captivate ROM (>= JJ4) combined with SetiroN's kernel and ultimate lagfix options (along with the glass lock screen ofcourse)... Hint... Hint... DG!!! ;)

As you can tell, I am more partial to the Samsung glass lock screen which is what Perception includes. Only cheesy thing about it is the "Welcome to Perception" with the animated arrows moving outward. Can we get rid of those DG??? ;)

Aside from all the good stuff, I did notice an anomaly. The vibration intensity of the Perc B5 ROM is quite lower than normal. Has anybody else noticed that???

Thanks,

MD

No incoming calls

Phone FCs when I receive an incoming call - the screen where it should show the caller id and options is black. Already started from stock and flashed to BETA 5. Any suggestions on how I can correct this? Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] dadams312:
Can you not just install the stock samsung lock screen from the first post?

i didnt have low media volume on axura but i dont have that problem on Pb5 either.

[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
I have Perception 4 right now and wanted to report that the new kernel works fine at 1350Mhz and 1400Mhz seems to be working too after lowering voltage to -50 ...going for 1450Mhz now.

Did you have the usb cable plugged in while flashing b5?
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Forgive my ignorance, but why are you flashing ROMS if you haven't a clue how to return your phone to stock using Odin?

You need to be reading threads from the beginning on "how to".... Starting with Rooting and flashing to stock before you bork your phone.

1-Click Odin is your friend....Make sure you have a three button recoery mode intact or learn how to use adb. There is another Odin that loads stock AND fixes the 1 click. Thats the one I use. But it is not 1 click/ It is a full version.
[Captivate Android Development] Captivate-me:
There is no need to be rude. It was an honest mistake. I flashed the Axura rom w/o any problems, so I thought I was okay. I admitted that it was a lesson learned a hard way. I'm not trying to bog down the threads, I was just hoping someone would look past my newb mistake and would be willing to help. But thanks for the advice you did offer :)
[Captivate Android Development] mdoctor:
Is Stock Lock screen = Samsung Glass Lock screen???

Isn't the Stock Lock screen in the first post the Android stock lock screen??? Thats not the same as the Samsung Glass Lock screen. Correct me if I'm wrong... Please!!!

Thanks,

MD
[Captivate Android Development] mod777:
Go here and get the drivers (make sure you use those drivers) and odin1click software. install the drivers, reboot, unzip and start odin1click. Then put your phone in download mode. make sure you see the com port in odin and your phone is in download mode, then click start on odin. Wait a few minutes until phone reboot and you are now at stock.

Pull /system/app/Swype.apk and /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so from Cognition 2.3b6 and place them in the corresponding locations in Perception.
[Captivate Android Development] SeenNotScene:
plugged in (should I have before?)

Lol thanks but neither of those is it. I never flash with the usb plugged in (should I have before?) and I work with sim cards every day. When I flash to JF6 it has signal... Wonder what the deal is. Going to try one more time.

He said its coming soon a few pages back. No previous versions will work with this new rom

[Captivate Android Development] killer23d:
Go to i9000 forum, look for doc's version of this ROM and there is Swype, download and CWM to install. AOSP lock and battery mod is also available from there too.

This Rom is a i9000 rom, if you are used to Cog, which is based on i897, there is a difference because certain hardware features like heptic feedback and touch panel are controlled by the kernel.

I tried to stay away from the 1.3.x kernel because there are bugs. 1.2.6 seems to be more stable.

I believe this is DG first public release of i9000 rom, I think it is fair that he needs time to get familar with the i9000 rom behaviors.

Still, this new rom is on fire!
[Captivate Android Development] kppanic:
I came from 2.3b6 and did not disable voodoo. All I did was CWM. Works like a charm.
[Captivate Android Development] Gurgs:
Go into settings and about phone and see if your baseband says unknown. Mine did but reflashing with no usb plugged in fixed it. You could always flash the jk3 modem manually using odin and see if that fixes it.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
I got what looks like some german on my beautiful widgets forecast.

other stuff looks ok. I forced it to english in the settings, but I never had that before.

Did the whole calibration for battery. Testing now.
[Captivate Android Development] SeenNotScene:
Not reading sim

Okay guys so after two flashes my sim card was not being read. What I did that fixed it was flashing back to jf6 one more time, master clearing, flashed cwm, flashed the jk3 modem, then flashed perception. Works now I am glad to report! :)
[Captivate Android Development] avengeryarr:
So I'm assuming this ROM is overclocked to 1.2ghz, correct? Is there a simple way to change it back to 1ghz or is SetCPU the only way to do it that doesn't involve ADB?
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
Voltage controller has an option to keep it at 1.0Ghz
[Captivate Android Development] jivy26:
Anyway you can explain to me how to add swype to my phone while keeping this Rom?
[Captivate Android Development] avengeryarr:
Ah fantastic! Installing now :D Thanks DG! When I finally get paid I'll try to send a few bucks your way!
[Captivate Android Development] :
Try flashing the Perception modem by itself with Odin.
[Captivate Android Development] TheEscapist:
I was under the impression that because the i9000 has only 3 buttons, only three worked under i9000 roms, and that the menu key simply didn't do anything. That not true?
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Not true. Works perfectly. Give it a try, its the best captivate rom to date!

Posted from my Captivate running Perception build 1 with SetiroN's SuperOptimized kernel
[Captivate Android Development] TheYar:
Flashing a rom that only has swype in it would usually leave everything else as is. Also I assume you can drag the swype apk out of another rom zip and put it into system/app on cog's zip prior to flashing it. That didn't work for me yet, but I think I used the wrong swype apk.

Other than swype, this is without a doubt the best rom I've ever put on my phone. Bluetooth and bluetooth dial work great and sound great. Hsupa and oc/uv rock. Lagfix is superior to oclf or voodoo. I think this rom actually made my clothes fit better and made my car run a little smoother, too. Haven't tried gps yet lol.

A real home run after that foul ball 236.

I can't seem to make calls with google voice, but I think that is service related.

[Captivate Android Development] ThisWasATriumph:
This is using SentiroN's reoriented kernel which fixes all that stuff.
[Captivate Android Development] jivy26:
Anyone else's home keys remaining lit the when idling?
[Captivate Android Development] double RL:
This is a reoriented kernel. all the buttons work. The only thing nobody has figured out is talking over the wired headset.
[Captivate Android Development] TheYar:
That's likely backlight notifications (bln) doing what it does.
[Captivate Android Development] neffarious:
I went to ext4 and it stopped doing that. In the mean time just click the disregard changes option and you will be fine.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
I know this is a very touchy subject, but this has gotta be something to do with the rom...

I'm on Build 5, and when I try to disable GPS from the drop down menu, it wont work...

When i go into Settings to disable gps, the check box de-selects, but it go back into settings, its right back in the "ON" Position...

So bascily, I can't disable GPS....

Anyone else having this issue?
[Captivate Android Development] IceMonkey82:
I'm on Build 4 and I had that same issue. Whether I tried to snooze or turn off the alarm it would either completely freeze (aka ... battery pull) or would do a kinda soft reboot.

Ended up putting another clock on here and it works fine. I think it's from a G2 phone or build or something another. I don't remember exactly where I got it from, but I remember it was something to do with G2.

Stuck in ClockworkMod Recovery

So I just recently started flashing roms and am loving it. I am having a problem though. I Flashed Perception Build 5 and then decided to check out Auxura. So I flashed that. Then after spending some time in Auxura I wanted to go back to Perception. So I dropped to recovery, cleared all data and re-installed the perception zip. Now I cant get to any rom at all. when I reboot the phone it says, "Configs differ. Continue with conversion?" and none of the choices move me anywhere. All of the "yes" options and "No, remove the new config" put me right back in the same place and "No, enter recovery mode" just sends me back to ClockworkMod.

I have tried several things in ClockworkMod and always end up in the same place. Can anyone help me get back to Perception? What should I do now?

Master ClearB

I am about to go back to Build 4 having problems with GPS and other small ticks in Build 5. I just flashed back to stock and was going to do a master clear (for the firsr time){used every Build}. How long does this usually take? I have tried 3 times and each time I get tired of waiting after 15 minutes. I see nothing showing progress. Any suggestions?

DG, this is a great rom dont tank my misfortune as evidence of a bad rom. This thing is awesome. I am hoping Build 6 will be even better. Keep up the good work.
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
You need to flash back to stock...
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
You need to do master clear while the phone is booted into the OS and not from download or recovery mode..
[Captivate Android Development] SethGorton:
Thanks for the quick tip.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Is anybody else having problems with not being able to disable the GPS?
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
I flashed back to stock and am waiting either either flash auxura or perception? Is "master clear" really needed? I simply went back to stock with odin(just clicked start) and some people say just flash and some say master clear? I dont have access to Odin at all times(Mac user) so I wanna be sure before I flash.

Also I know the i9000 roms will give you access to hsupam but how can I find if its available in my area??

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Well since you don't have access to a PC I would do the master clear just to be sure you don't have any issues..

FC on APN add?

Just flashed over to this ROM via Rom Manage / CWM from stock 2.1 JF6.

When I attempt to add an APN for my GSM data network, i get FCs.

Tried restart. tried odin 2 stock, then reflash; same results. Really want to use this ROM so would like to avoid changing. Any input is desired, and a fix for my individual problem ( or link to a previous fix, which was overlooked due to my negligence) may warrant multiple beers on me!

Ok P5 so far for me (almost 2 days) has been GREAT. coming from P4 I was going to wait for next build but yeah right!

I can say that i have NOT had any issues with this build. I followed DG's guide for install as I always odin stock and so-forth. I didnt change his default LagFix, I think BLN is disabled by default(left it alone) and havnt messed with the Voltage app.

GPS works fine. Alarm works fine (worked this morning). Contacts Join/Sync. Data/3G toggle. Battery seems way better than 4(cleared stats)

Overall P5 is fast as hell for me. Media scans,boots,responsive,no browser lag

Thanks DG for making our phones way better than Sammy!!!!!

BTW I never bench marked....just real time experience

Here's what you do....

get APN BACKUP and RESTORE from market

backup apns

run tibu (titanium backup)

in tibu, go to MENU>MORE>CREATE UPDATE.ZIP

choose USER and choose name TITANIUM

now you have update.zip on your /sdcard (or you should, anyway) from clockwork and the tibu.zip you just created.

when you flash stock, just boot into recovery with the clockwork update.zip, then choose "install zip from sdcard" and install the tibu zip.

Now you can run tibu to restore all your apps, including APN BACKUP and RESTORE. Then restore your apn......
[Captivate Android Development] Chuckd610:
That's because people just come in the thread and start asking for stuff, and not read a single word about what's going on. How someone can ask what Odin is and where to get it, is like asking someone how to take a breath. For you folks hiding under the "Noobie" umbrella, give it a rest. Don't be surprised or angered if you start seeing one-word responses like, "READ".

For some reason, vibration is very weak. If I flash to JF6, vibration is nice and strong again. I've seen others mention haptic feedback being weak, but it seems to be all vibration.
[Captivate Android Development] nybmx:
While I agree with you both I also think that a big reason people who are new are having problems is because the Odin thread isn't linked in the OP. It just says to flash to stock JF6 without pointing anyone where to go.

I have read every single post in this thread and have kept up since day one so don't get me wrong, it's frustrating watching post after post of people not flashing stock first and generally ignoring the advice in the second sentence of the OP. I still feel however that a link to the Odin thread would cut down on a few questions.
