I have found that Tracks was always pretty good when running in the background. But that is a pretty good track, just the same. It is when using nav that I see the biggest problems. Will it consistently show you where you are ask the time with nav running in the foreground, or does it hop around a lot?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Do you have a process manager on your device?
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I get the exact same results using Google Nav. I just used My Tracks because some people like to see them for reassurance. But either way this fix I have found works great!
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
Just downloaded Advanced Process Manager. For kicks and giggles, it lost service just now and I went in and restarted all processes and it came back. Now I have to track down who's really hanging and causing the problem.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
If you already haven't, try running a day without a process manager of any sort. Just let your phone do its thing. Do you get these same results on stock builds?
[Captivate Android Development] sicmadek:
ive been on this rom since yesterday morning and its pretty sweet. however, last night i was at my friends house with 0-1 bar on 850 band and he had 4 bars on his iphone 3gs. im assuming the 3gs uses 1900 band only so why didnt my phone switch to the 1900 band?
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
The only time this happens is on JK3 builds. So far it happens on Axura, Perception, and Docs, all based on JK3. I've flashed different modems with no luck. On stock or any Captivate based ROM no issue.

So far really no solid ideas. Service just dropped again, this time went into service menu and put Network Control WCDMA on 1900 only, no 850 and service instantly came back.

At this point, it's either a problem switching between 850 and 1900 or something that I really have no clue about, :p
[Captivate Android Development] stacio88:
My GPS doesn't work at all! It locks on with a 2700 meter distance. I like this rom a lot just wished the GPS worked better for me:(
[Captivate Android Development] Coldheat1906:
I'm having the Voicemail problem also. I am not getting any notices.
[Captivate Android Development] hansmrtn:
Beta3.1 will be coming out tomorrow. It will include some of the newer experiment GPS files and a new phone app. I will also be testing with facebook.apk syncing and fixing the SD card mount issue :D

Oh, do you guys think this should have the new 1.4 kernel?
[Captivate Android Development] ozone777:
Looks Good!

I'm currently on Cog 2.3B6.

What does this ROM have to offer as an improvement over Cog?

Does bluetooth dialing work on this ROM?
[Captivate Android Development] Evilspawn:
I havent read about the kernel yet but if you think it will make our caps better then YES! Im going to go read the change log now.....btw battery seems a lil better but still drains rather quick.
[Captivate Android Development] junktzu:
I think the 1.4 kernel would be a nice addition...
[Captivate Android Development] satans spawn1972:
Since I upgraded to FROYO and this ROM my phone now puts text messages in my Call Log.

One member stated that this happens on all Samsung phones but it did not do this on my stock AT&T ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] Coldheat1906:
Yes that was one of the Froyo new features. I actually like it. :D

You can also just filter by missed calls......
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
Tried method 1 in setiron directions to flash 1.4 kernel but failed. stuck in bootloop. charging to 100 and will flash rom then 1.4 if not then will drop 1.4 into zip and flash rom.
[Captivate Android Development] lpsi2000:
I would hope so, I am running it now with beta 2 and it seems okay. You have to also remind anyone who move into this new kernel should do a wipe and redo the lagfix.
[Captivate Android Development] junktzu:
New mirror since my dropbox one has been suspended...

Does anyone have instructions, I copy to sd and rebooted to recovery and got an error.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:
If you use an alternate messaging app besides stock they will not show...or you can swap out some of the apks related to the phone also if you prefer not to have them show......if only someone would have put a filter for all calls it would have solved the whole issue....seems crazy that they did not

Sent telepathically using vulcan mind meld app.
[Captivate Android Development] Smallsmx3:
Ran beta 2 all day yesterday and loved it....glad u went back to the neon battery mod...overall the rom seems a Tad snappier then beta 2.....GPS still a no go.
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
Got a link to the instructions, I've only had the phone for about a week. Tried with a copy on sd card and got and error in recovery. Are you using odin and do I need to flash back to a orginal rom since I already have Froyo on the phone.
[Captivate Android Development] crusecontrl:
What was the error?

From the interwebs via fast thumbs and a faster phone.
[Captivate Android Development] golfslicer:
I didn't write it down, some sort of validation error. I renamed the file to update.zip, using adb, I ran adb boot recovery is that correct. I even cleared the data and all and then selected the file, and no dice would flash.
[Captivate Android Development] keredini:
you need to boot into clockwork recovery, than choose install ZIP from SD card...then choose the axura zip file and install it.
[Captivate Android Development] mcx6:
Using clockwork you should not rename the file, use install zip from sd.
[Captivate Android Development] JPxM0Dz:
OMG this rom is fast! I love the UI and all the advanced settings in recovery.

Bootup is fast, zero lag, zero FC

Good work and amazing Rom!

My new favorite ; )
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I am baffled as well. When did you get your phone? At first I was thinking it was problems switching towers, but who the hell knows at this point. I have had success with all of the ROMs you just listed.
[Captivate Android Development] sicmadek:
im pretty sure my phone got better reception on the geomod with jg8/jpp modem. i notice my bars bouncing up and down a lot more now on this rom.
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
Yeah, this confuses the hell out of me too. I've had mine since a week after release. I've flashed it a hundred times at least, every ROM under the sun, Cappy, i9000, and now these Vibrant based ones. So far, these JK3 ROMS are the only ones that do it.

At this point, I'm just going to keep experimenting because this is probably the best ROM I've used, including my past Android phones. If I have to turn Airplane mode on and off, oh well.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I wonder if it has something to do with the phones being slightly older than. Mine is only three weeks old, brand new from the ATT store and I can flash any base/modem and it works great. Could also be my coverage area which is full 3g.
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
New launcher to add for Axura 2A... I hope

I have found a new launcher that is just amazing, with a professional feal, looks and works awesome with Axura, thought i would share and see if hans would incorporate this on R2... Let me know what you think...:D
[Captivate Android Development] demonte21:
I'm working on a 7th floor building, surrounded by thick wall...

Original Eclair Rom was giving low signal, and I was on EDGE 90% of time, even if there is a 3G antenna attach to our building!

Now with Axura RC1 I got 3G all the time, no more EDGE swtiching, I got about 2,5MBPS download speed. GSM Reception is also all good.. from 3 to 4 bars all the time.

Just bought my phone from Rogers 1 week ago.
[Captivate Android Development] Scarchunk:
Camera Update

I was looking on the market for sgs tools, and I came across a firmware update for the captivate camera. I haven't installed yet since I'm not sure it's compatible with the camera included in Axura. Anyone else tried it? If it's an upgrade maybe it could be included in the next Axura build. Hopefully this isn't old news...
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
Pending notifications leave the 4 bottom lights on, how do I disable that?
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Advanced options in CW recovery... disable BLN
[Captivate Android Development] kangi26:
Go into recovery/advanced options/BLN
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
The lagfix is ALREADY enabled. The default that it is already set to is good enough for anyone that doesnt understand all the options.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
WOW! That worked for me. Thanks!:o
[Captivate Android Development] inneyeseakay:
Tried this out last night... coming from newest Cog & Perception... This ROM is amazing so far, doesn't seem nearly as glitchy as the other two mentioned and I have actually seen a vast improvement in battery life so far.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
No problem. Glad I could help another Axura follower.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Welcome to Axura. I guarantee you will love it here!
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Yeah, i get that issue alot, and I even change my android id to my stock id... I clear data, and force stop the market... yet i still get this weird issue alot as well...

EDIT: I just tried the Market Fix from SGS Tools, and i'll update everyone later if it works well...
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
Not sure why but my battery is dropping fast. 84% in less than an hour. I know I changed kernels yesterday but I don't think that would matter since its undervolted heavily and the phone is rarely at 1350speed. Anyone else using a new kernel and draining battery fast?

Posted from my Captivate running Axura RC1 with SetiroN's SuperOptimized kernel v1.4.3 O/C'd to 1350
[Captivate Android Development] zeronothing:
Can anyone tell me if this ROM as Mobile AP mode built in?

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] xavier55:
or download the bln app it is free
[Captivate Android Development] sicmadek:
my phone is only 3 weeks old and mine does it on jk3. i live in a very good 3g coverage area too.
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
Got the bln fixed thanks guys. Updates to rc1 from b5 last night, so far so good :)

Brightness all the way down

Auto sync off

GPS off

Is there anything worthwhile I can do to save battery?
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
I installed that yesterday, camera still works fine... but I haven't done any intensive testing yet...
[Captivate Android Development] Mac11700:
Check your wi-fi status...and see if it is scanning every 5 seconds..if it is..then shut off wi-fi till you need it.

Also see if the 900 and 1900 bands are selected for your modem..go into the gsm bands and the wcdma bands as well..They weren't selected on mine.I had a bunch of problems getting any changes to stick and kept getting force closes when I tried to apply them.Use the menu button to go back when your in there..Once you get them to stick..reselect automatic mode..then go back into the other bands and see if they are still enabled.

These 2 changes helped a-lot..one other was going to a dark screen and setting the power saver mode in settings.

Mac
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
Well, have it set for wcdma 1900 only and so far no drops. Like i said, I live in the middle of nowhere so band switching may have been my issue. I'll keep watching and report back for anyone else with this issue.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
Recalibrate your battery.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I can almost guarantee that is the issue which is why I said to disable 850 in the first place. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Unlock Sound

Anyone know why the unlock sounds don't work on JK2; they work on all the I9000 ROMs I've tried. I don't think they worked on Cog Froyo ROMs either.
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
That is a good question. I know my lock sounds work just fine. I never thought to check the unlock sounds as I don't pay attention to them anyways.
[Captivate Android Development] wmwilker:
Hans, any chance of getting the Captivate ringtones?
[Captivate Android Development] ozone777:
I've gotten nowhere with diagnosing this problem.

Same thing happens with Perception ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] sicmadek:
i wonder if docs with the jp8 modem has the same issues
[Captivate Android Development] cingulartreo:
Excellent, thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] jhnstn00:
They is a click sound for lock and faint swish for unlock. But for android lock screen there is a vibrate for unlock.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
[Captivate Android Development] bobbylx:
Well changed mine to wcdma 1900 only and its been solid for the last hour and a half or so. I think switching between 850 and 1900 was my problem.
[Captivate Android Development] demonte21:
Anyone else having the issue of receiving the SMS 3 hours before with the stock app?.

I mean I send an SMS at 11h AM, then I got the answer at 11h02... but the answer will appear BEFORE my sent message, as it will show that I had receive it at 8h02...(when in fact, the time is 11h02!!)

Handcent SMS work great... but not the Messaging stock app.
[Captivate Android Development] NeonMonkey:
Ok I wiped user data and cache, I select axura in rom manager to flash to, it reboots, then gets the "E failed to verify whole file signiture."

What do? I removed another Rom to get this one, but I CAN'T live with just stock froyo on the cappy.

Help is appreciated.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Yes it does, and I just tested it, works great!

Re-Download the Rom... Sounds like it got corrupted while downloading...
[Captivate Android Development] zelendel:
Flash back to 2.1. 2.2 leaks can't flash unsigned roms
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Didn't think about that... See? Sometimes 2 minds are better than one :P
[Captivate Android Development] drizzle67:
i have been out of captivate scene for a while, and when i came back i tried this rom out. i was on one of the cognition builds, and i gotta say this rom is AWESOME!! I am super stoked on my phone again! so thanks to everyone involved!!
[Captivate Android Development] zeronothing:
Thank you very much Dr. Bogger. Another question, is this rom still able to play all the types of video files and is their a way to install allshare?

thanks
[Captivate Android Development] majkeli:
I've been using ADW launcher so I can easily backup and restore my home screens. Is there a way to backup and restore the screens on the launcher (stock?) that comes with Axura?

Loving Axura BTW. I'm a Cognition convert.

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Allshare is already pre-installed...

And i can't say it plays all types of videos, as nothing can play ALL types of videos by default, but i'm sure with a little tweeking, and researching, you can probably play "most" video formats...

But in general, yes, it can play most of the common video formats...
[Captivate Android Development] NeonMonkey:
Does running 2.2 have anything to do with an error I might be having? can you flash this while running stock 2.1?
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Try SGS Tools... im not 100% possitive, but i believe i seen setting in there for launchers...
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
It might... I always make it a habbit to flash STOCK 2.1, AND Do a Master Clear, Before flashing any rom, even a newer version of the same rom...

It avoids alot of issues that people normally see...
[Captivate Android Development] NeonMonkey:
Ok thanks, I am going to try that.

I was just under the impression that you had to be running 2.2 to flash to a 2.2 ROM.
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
You can grab those .ogg files from the Captivate ROM and copy them over.
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
Stock froyo ji6 (assuming thats what you have) will not allow signature grants... Your best bet is to ODIN back to stock.:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
redownload Axura, reboot into recovery and flash it.
[Captivate Android Development] cingulartreo:
I couldnt figure that way out. Nothing in rom manager under advanced. I used the other suggestion and downloaded BLN manager from market. Just uncheck "activate BLN".
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Same thing here with 1.4.3 kernel. I've tweaked everything down as much as possible, still drains the battery pretty quickly. Wouldn't complain though. Running on the cutting edge has both advantages and disadvantages :)
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
It's not in ROM manager. You have to boot to recovery, then you'll find those options.
[Captivate Android Development] xfernand:
SMS problems?

Has anyone gotten SMS problems? Delivered to the wrong person? It happened twice so I'm a bit concerned. Just keep a watch on it...

Maybe is just a finger slip.... but too coincidental to have 2 of them.
[Captivate Android Development] NeonMonkey:
I am at stock but I can't get any of the rooting procedures to work. Do you guys recommend one for 2.1 that is the best?
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Use one of these. 1) root - will root your phone 2) CWM - you don't need to root the phone in order to flash, just install CWM and flash from recovery.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
You really shouldn't be flashing your phone if you don't know how to reboot into recovery...

Please do more research before you end up bricking your phone...

Yeah, I had the same battery drain problem when i was using Perception Build 5...

I Use this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=739304

And also, please do alot of research, because as with any kind flashing, or rooting, or modifying your phone, you run the risk of bricking your phone... and the risk is much higher if you don't know what your doing...
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
"And also, please do alot of research, because as with any kind flashing, or rooting, or modifying your phone, you run the risk of bricking your phone... and the risk is much higher if you don't know what your doing..."

Well, don't frighten the guy too much :) It really is pretty hard to totally brick this thing...
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
lol, true, but i still just wanted to make a point... research can make the difference between life or death of the cappy..
[Captivate Android Development] bowtieguy:
Update:

Just flashed last night.

Battery and GPS is doing great!! 15% less battery usage over other very popular ROMs in this thread.

Thanks again
[Captivate Android Development] NeonMonkey:
Ok everything was going well, It went into clockwork recovery and I installed the update.zip, it rebooted, but it is still stock 2.1. Do you use the whole axura_RC1_ce.zip or just the update folder inside of it?
[Captivate Android Development] Pvster:
i've gone through the re-calibration process for the battery (since i didnt flash on a fully charged battery), and i was wondering, could i delete the battery stats file via CWM in recovery? i clicked that option but didnt see any text to indicate the process was implimented.

after reflashing the rom (to fix auto-rotate issue), i'm STILL loving this rom. thank you so much hans, beautiful work! dont release A2 too soon yet lol. second donation sent as promised. sorry it isnt much as i'm a poor college student, but i'll send more as i can over the course of time. keep it up! 9PG86368UW963620X.
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Just point to Axura ROM zip file from within the recovery, and then sit back and let it make your phone useful :)
[Captivate Android Development] Pvster:
you use the WHOLE zipfile after installing clockworks. move it onto your sd, reboot into recovery, install zip from sd, and choose the axura file and install. enjoy!

I'm loving the "haters gonna hate" gif in the beggining.
[Captivate Android Development] Lee1733:
I am still having problems with the battery meter still reading "full" after unplugging it. It stays this way until a reboot and finally starts showing numbers after that, but I have to reboot everytime I charge now. Going to flash again later today because I think it's probably something to do with the backup/restore after switching to JFS.
[Captivate Android Development] A.VOID:
UGH ... battery is not doing too well on this one.

I'll recalibrate tonight. It's beyond awesome other than that.
[Captivate Android Development] storm68:
I'm reading on guys doing battery calibrations.... How is everyone going about in doing this?
[Captivate Android Development] dfellars77:
All phones are different, but the recalibration should help. I am currently on 22hrs with 30% left under normal usage. Under cognition, cognadian bacon, or stock I would have had to plug it back in by now.
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Step 1) Use the Search button

Step 2) RTFM

Step 3) Calibrate battery
[Captivate Android Development] ninjuh:
I see a lot of people asking for calibration instructions in the android development section - there should be a sticky for it.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
Major Changes for Perception....Think I will give this one a go as I make the ROM rounds while DG gets his sorted out....

Will report back..
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
You should charge the battery with the phone Turned OFF before you do the final flash to Axura... that should perform a proper calibration automaticly...
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
What I have done is charge the battery with phone off to 100%

Then reboot the phone to full....then turn phone off and charge again to 100%. repeat until the battery reaches 100% charge when OFF within seconds.Usually takes 4 cycles or less.

I know then the battery is fully charged and matches the 100% on the phone when running. Then I reset battery stats again and /or delete the battery stats file and reboot.

Never have battery drain issues after that (unless the battery is trashed) I have three batteries and a Samsung charger. Always keep one cooking in the green for ROM flashing.
[Captivate Android Development] newter55:

I was hoping this would not turn into another thread where every other post was read this or search dammit

Hey man i have a video on youtube on how to install these roms watch it and youll be good to go man http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=injsaoOJdno
[Captivate Android Development] majkeli:
Sadly that's just for the Touchwiz launcher. I'll look around and report back unless anyone else knows. It's very handy to restore apps with TiBu and then restore your launcher with a click. But ADW launcher just isn't as smooth as the stock one.
[Captivate Android Development] drizzle67:
I would appreciate it, if you do find out, as that is the only thing that sucks about flashing so much.
[Captivate Android Development] myx0mop:
Hey, the question was what the others do when they want to calibrate the battery. I can only speak for myself. First thing I would do is search for the answer. Most often then not, someone had already provided it (multiple times), such as in this case. Regurgitating the easily accessible information helps no one, just adds noise and wastes bandwidth.

This is just my own $.05 on the subject.
