Just got an I896 (Rogers) with the following config and looking to flash with Perception build 5.

Firmware: 2.1-update1

Baseband: I896UXJI2

Kernel: 2.6.29

Build: ECLAIR.UXJI2

1) What does "Flash stock JF6" mean? Where do I get JF6 from and what is it?

2) Does Perception build 5 include "lag fix"?

3) Does GPS still somewhat work with Perception build 5 on the I896?

4) Do I have to do anything special for a Rogers-based I896 vs the ATT model before flashing the ROM?

5) When/if Samsung does come out with an official Froyo 2.2, what is the upgrade path going to be like from Perception to the official ROM?

Thanks in advance! Sorry for the nooby questions, but I'm still learning here...

GPS works great for many of us (great in relation to how a captivate normally is). Maybe its your phone or this specific install on your phone.

Really? grow up.
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
yes, and i think its a fair response considering how they spoke from the beginning.

Hi folks. I am running P5 and I love it. When P5 is flashed, does it also mean our phone is now unlocked?

Thanks.

Surprised if DG has any hair left after that one. LoL
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
GPS is working the best it ever has with this rom...

If your having GPS issues then try the steps, or try a fresh reflash...
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
lmfao!!

I was thinking something along those lines.. I am def curious as to why he would be like that when it gets his kernel out to more people, more recognition and donations.....

herp derp
[Captivate Android Development] codeblue315:
DG, thank you so much for this. When I first got my Captivate I was a little upset about its speed. Shortly after that I installed Cog 2.2 (I forget which one), but after that I fell in love with it. Now that Perception v.5 is on my phone, these ROMs just keep getting better. My GPS actually works, my phone is fast as hell, and you just keep on working on it. Thank you sir, you shall have more beer money soon. :)

[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
Download the Samsung GPS app from the market and run it. It sets everything back to default. Or, try doing a little research. Half the folks here are having great luck with this ROM and GPS, half have poor performance. It is a long term, know issue with the Captivate. If it is a huge issue to you, find a ROM that it works well with and stick to it.

Wired headset will be back with cog kernel 2? just wondering..

[Captivate Android Development] torrin66:
I would hope that if DG does not mention it in the change log it will either still work (Bluetooth Dialing) or it still won't work (Wired Headset).

I don't think DG uses a wired headset, so be the first to flash and report back, the last guy that did that was given credit on the OP for the research.
[Captivate Android Development] The_Zodiac:
yeah gave the gps app a shot and it didnt work, which i figured it wouldnt. also tried jm9 flash , so now im just gonna wait till they release the next version (think they said they are planning on it tonight) and reflash to stock
[Captivate Android Development] drancid:
gotcha.

was just wondering cause DG told he thinks it's kernel related problem..

plus, i don't have a charger with me so i can't be the first one...unlucky... :(

Hey DG, what are the chances of seeing native CIFS support so I can stream video files from my home server? I have played with manually adding it but I suck so I can't get it to work.
[Captivate Android Development] loonieryan:
Thanks!

SO I use "I897UCJF6 - Odin3 One-Click Downloader". But that's for I897 and I have the Rogers version, I896. I can't seem to find an I896 ODIN one-click and reading some other threads indicates that I should tread carefully here. Others are still getting an AT&T logo before the Rogers logo when they try to flash back to stock. I wanna avoid that for warranty purposes.

Can I take a dump of my ROM as-is now using ROM Manager and some day if something goes wrong still go back to that and thus return my phone to stock Rogers?

I have a i896 and when I was using the stock rogers rom. I noticed whenever I open maps without gps it would use the network and give me a general location of where I am. Now that im on perception, it wont give me my location unless it locks on through the GPS I was just wonder if anyone else has that problem.

[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
I think one you root your phone you have basically voided tbe warranty. Your best bet is flash away and find the original stock rom for your phone so hou can put it back on IF the need arises to take it back. I personally will not ever use stock again with tbe way DG makes these roms Cog and Perception so awesome.

One of the reasons I have stick with Perc.5 after fixing my fc issues with ext4 a=eft or whatever. I did like voodoo on cog. 2.3b6 except having some problems goi.g into recovery. Will tbat. E an issue with voodoo5 still. Not too big of a deal but for me it woild freeze up, i would battery pull, put. Attery back in a hit power button and then it would go into recovery. Thanks again for your awesome work and look forward to trying it out. I get paid this friday so I will shoot you another donation...

[Captivate Android Development] keener31:
i searched but did not find...

i see others have had issues with APN force closing. i do as well, but assuming that isnt a problem, i dont mind.

my issue is that after a certain period of time left asleep, my phone will completely fall off the network. changing flight and data mode dont work, nor help. a restart works. this has started a day or two ago, but was not an issue for the first week (give or take). if it is relevant, my network constantly swaps between H and 3G where i live.

i have not found a setting to force 3g (and disable hsdpa) as i figured it was the network hopping that was doing it. am i just missing that setting? anyone else with this issue? (again, i saw people with the apn force close but not complete loss of network unrelated to initial flash)

also, i think that each build should get its own thread. it is VERY difficult to find accurate information on the current build once a thread has 4 builds and 250 pages in it. even with search, it would still be a good idea.

thanks and thanks.

Perception build 5 freeze

Can someone tell me what is my issue...

I can't figure out why my Captivate keeps freezing up.

I have flashed JF6 twice, master cleared twice. But still my Captivate freezes randomly. I have no add-ons... no extras. Can anyone tell me what and why it is happening... Thanks. I love the Perception Build 5, but with this many freezes I may have to go back to Cognition 2.3b6.

"new hotness"

hmmm.....is the "new hotness" for Cog or Perception? I wonder with the new kernel change and all.....????
[Captivate Android Development] xredjokerx:
On the contrary dont u think he'd get more donations by being an exclusive kernel? To be honest, i think he just wants to make more money. His work is well known now, he no longer needs anybody to cook it into their roms to get his name out. People donate to DG even though he uses SeitroN's kernel. This would make people more willing to donate to SeitroN since they have to DL from his thread. Imo I think he should let developers cook it into their roms, but the developers should be sending him donations from what they make, say maybe 30% or something. Just sayin, i bet none of the developers have sent him a donation and yet they keep using his kernel.

Though.. he is just compiling other people's work too...

Just wondering if anyone else uses Square to take cc payments. The cc reader uses the headphone jack, and I can't get it to read the cards. I'm assuming this has something to do with the headphone logic being messed up as a result of the i9000 kernel. Anyone else experiencing this?

From another post in the development forum, I hate to say though, my problems did not end there. I was able to receive a good signal, and I made an outbound call.

Uh where did you put it. Saw where someone registered but there is no perception page or changes reflecting the adding of that information.

In all honesty. I didn't think the other froyo cog was all that much faster than stock. But this, this is unbelievably ridiculously fast. Data worked on first boot. Will let everyone know how battery usage is.

Switch gears...

My 2 cents. Switch to this one DG. The speed is unmatched and with the exception of the wired headset, everything else works.

Here is my observation so far with battery. If I let it idle, it's great. If i'm using it, it bends my battery over and rapes it.

One thing I'm really excited about with this build is the support from the Cog crowd.

I don't think you need to do all that. Just install it again. You can get it from

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=829731

The version in this rom is the 1.98b. Once you set the lock to 1 ghz, press the set button so it applies the command.

You will need also to press "set to boot" so it locks automatically every time you reboot. For most people this was problematic and you will need to move on file to /etc/init.d using root explorer or similar. If you search this thread or the setiron's thread you'll find all the instructions.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
technically everyone gets the same battery life, now, getting it to report correctly is another thing.

I was testing mine today, flashed at 35% battery, wiped stats and charged.

Battery appeared to drop like a rock, but once it hit zero around 2pm, it's still up and running telling me the battery is about to die.
[Captivate Android Development] dadams312:

DG, any chance of releasing OC versions of your kernel as add-ons? I'm running SetiroN's 1280 kernel right now and I'd like to keep it at this speed.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
I'm on build 4 +1280 setiron kernel 1.4.2 and I added the app widget picker app.

My battery life gets better and better. Went monday and tuesday on one charge and had 34% battery when I put out on the charger. Today it has been un plugged since 10am it its now 830pm and I have 81% battery left. My use today has been admittedly light but I have been surfing xda a bit.

I'm undervolted -75,50,100,100,75,50

I was undervolted much more with unhelpfuls kernel but my phone is right on the edge at 1280.

It doesn't seem to like huge jumps with voltage so my 800 mhz and 1 ghz settings are higher than I had it on eclair. If I disable overclocking as my chip doesn't like it as much as others I might get 3 days battery life!

From what I can recall, anything around 4-5 or above is HSUPA. Are you set on the 850 frequency?
[Captivate Android Development] joeybear23:
If you are getting upload speeds greater than 250Kbps, you are getting HSUPA.
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
Down speed should not change, my down speed is about 1.5-3mbps and up is about 1.5-2mbps so hsuoa is 100% working, hsdpa probably is but I might be limited by the tower. I can't speak for prior roms because my area just got 3g in the last few days. They are still testing things too, it may get better.
