First Flash

well this is my first android flash:D came over from winmo. all i can say is WOW! this thing is fast!!:eek: and gps was locked while in my house before i could even get past the whats new page on google maps! i think im in love:o
[Captivate Android Development] thehyecircus:
I just switched from the Touch Pro to the Captivate under four hours ago. Looks like this is the ROM to go with. I'm joining you bro!
[Captivate Android Development] pamaguin:
On the OP DG put that : Give your phone about 5 minutes from the time it starts booting for the first time to get everything setup, registered to the network and for data to start working. If you don't wait now, you will wait longer and data my not setup properly.

So, does that mean I flash this ROM with my sim card in the phone?
[Captivate Android Development] Twoam:
Never ever flash with your sim in. this can cause severe battery life issues as it can cause your radio to stay on
[Captivate Android Development] pamaguin:
I don't flash with sim in...so, should I immediately insert sim afer flash?
[Captivate Android Development] zipo16:
Yeah put it in after the flash, i tossed.it in as soon as it went to reboot from download mode since i didnt have to remove the battery
[Captivate Android Development] Faygo:
you wont regret it:D 0 problems so far. stronger signal and faster data speeds also:cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Cognition with SetiroN's kernel with JK3 modem works fine!
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I keep seeing questions regarding the stock lock screen, as well as the guy complaining about lacking the < symbol on the multi touch keyboard. People really need to pay more attention to the OP. I have the stock lock screen and I can type < all day long. Why? Because I downloaded the taplock lock screen and original Android keyboard from the OP.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Guys, I have flashed every Perception ROM with my SIM in. Battery lasted 36 hours on one charge, signal has been great, APN auto set immediately on boot, NO issues with any part of the phone. I really doubt SIM has anything to do with it...

Of course no one calls me or texts me when I'm flashing, I tell people to go to hell and let me be in peace with my baby.
[Captivate Android Development] 10tonhammr:
Agreed. I tweaked the UV settings last night and lowered them a little bit, and my battery life has NEVER been this good and the phone is smoking fast. I have never had any major problems with DG's roms and this one is no exception.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
Running my voltages at -125 across the board and haven't had any issues. Just put a fresh battery in about 50 minutes ago. I'll be sure and post back if I run into any issues. Understand that I do hardly use my phone. I mean, I use it, but it's not like I'm constantly talking on it, or always browsing on it. I definitely use it for music on my way to work, and browse XDA during that time as well. I play games on it at home before I crash, and text throughout the day.

I guess I really have no point in having such a tech phone, but I got it for a great price, and always wanted a touch phone. But since I rarely use it, I tend to have amazing (read 30+ hours) battery life.

So varying levels of use are definitely subjective. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Dani897:
Thanks thought so but needed to be sure.

[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Same here, I advise to take it out if you are having issues, sometimes the modem wont flash, sometimes causes crazy battery issue. I really think its all crap tho, something needed to be blamed!

Hahahahhaha, I have people ***** at me from time to time because they get sent straight to voicemail. Even had one friend call my wife a whore and doesn't speak to me anymore because he got sent to voicemail one to many times.
[Captivate Android Development] bowtieguy:
I have never taken my SIM out either, and I have flashed many times.

Every Cognition ROM

All the Perceptions

Lots and lots of others
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I thought I should update people who may have read about my GPS issues. I downloaded the CWM flashable JM9 GPS fix and installed it. I got a lock indoors at my aunt's house and it was so accurate that I switched it to satellite view in Maps and it showed me standing in the exact part of the house I was in. I'm now beyond thrilled with this ROM. :D
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
Ditto on this, btw.

Edit: I should also mention I unlocked back on JF6 when I first bought my phone and I'm still unlocked, even though people swear flashing with the SIM in will re-lock the phone.

Any one else have issues with phone acting all wonky when battery gets down around 10% or less?

What are recommended settings for the voltage app?
[Captivate Android Development] skyxliner:
I've used perception for about 2 days and I love it, just noticed a few issues...

1) My google search widget moves up to the very top and acts kinda funny. This MIGHT be launcherpros problem but i'm wondering if anyone has the same issue?

2) this is the more serious bug that's been bugging me. My phone will randomly act like it's receiving a call and it'll vibrate. The 3g sign looks like it lost signal. And then I will then receive a voicemail signal with 3 seconds of silence. I've tried to look around for the issue and people said its how the call forwarding is setup but I think it might be due to a bug in perception.

Anyone have these problems as well?
[Captivate Android Development] rockettman:
Does it really have the 1.4.2 kernel? I know you said before in the OP that you weren't including it due to bugs? Thanks for all your work, I have been on build 4 since it came out and it is by far the best I have had! You are the MAN!!!
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Sweet. Thanks for the reply. Looks.like I will have to get myself familiar with metamorph lol.

I love these forums. Cause I learn something new every day from you smart ppl lol.
[Captivate Android Development] kamots:
Ohhh son of a...... lol well I guess I will have to put the phone on the charger now....mannnn.... and I after being off the charger for 17 hrs. I still have 40 % of my batt left. Lol Dg you are the best. Trust me I have turned into a rom whore and I have tried almost every rom to date in this forum. (yes I am ashamed) but i always come back to your roms because IMHO,they seem like the smoothest,fastest, and most stable roms around.

E

*edit felt I needed to add that the other devs do a great job too, and there are a few other roms that I like alot, just most my favorite. There... now I don't feel like too big of a DG fanboy lol
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Metamorph is pretty easy. You may have some foreclosures when installing themes. Once they are installed you should ve good to go
[Captivate Android Development] bamonkey:
im with the poster above on the 1.4.2 kernel.. it really has not been treating my phone well *random freezing*.. ill try a jf6 to master clear but so far the same process on other roms has not faired well with the new kernel. praying to the rom gods maybe this one will take :p
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Dg

Last night on the kernals thread you posted that you were happy you did not use the new kernal because of bugs. Hours later it is incorporated in your build.

I love build three and have been on it since you posted it. I am trying to keep up on the development of this rom. What are\where the bugs, and what made you change your mind?
[Captivate Android Development] pvr:
Very Nice! The new Widget is very cool and the Boot image is also very well made - congrats!

It also saved my life because I had sort of got myself in a loop of CWM Recovery. Luckily nohting that an adb push p5.zip didn't solve ;)

Also, I'm still having issues logging into Twitter using Official App, Seesmic, Twidroyd. No issues with TweetDeck or Twicca.
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
splash screen

I've looked at the boot animation thread and searched this one, but haven't found a Splash screen for the captivate to replace the i9000 splash screen. all the others on the thread were for the EVO.

can someone send a link or offer an option?
[Captivate Android Development] pvillasuso:
just flashed > [ROM]Perception Build 5 (aka Cognadian Bacon)

Fresh install ..

Im using setcpu 2.04, let the app autoset > 1280 (conservative)

Ran quadrant and got > 2390 :eek: Am I dreaming ? is this ok (normal) ?

I also have an HTC Desire, runnnig lastest CM , and its not even close to the overall samsung speed .. using this ROM
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
WOW, I read on the kernel thread that you should not use setCPU with SentiroNs kernel. don't know why but it is stated on his first few lines.

The fastest and smoothest Captivate experience to date

THIS IS A FROYO KERNEL, USE ONLY WITH A 2.2 ROM, PREFERABLY AN I9000 ONE

DO NOT USE SETCPU
[Captivate Android Development] bamonkey:
not sure as i just found by digging around this might be a touchy subject right now :rolleyes:

anyways still had the lockup issue with this one too BUT i found that i could get to the voltage app and change overclocking to stay at 1ghz..went back to gallery *which would be the test to freeze my phone* and VIOLA! its working and i have to say i now see no point in OC..its flying through EVERYTHING faster than any OC ive had up to this point. i almost want to get a video camera to record the insane speeds:D

ill fool around and let this one stay for a few hours and see if this one can stay alive :p

THX DG! just a rom addict here, no complaints as long as my addiction is fed
[Captivate Android Development] pvillasuso:
Hey

Thanks for that info , didn't know that ... gonna run quadrant again without setcpu , to take a look @ those numbers :D

edit : NOT using setcpu it's still the fastest ROM I've ever used @ android ! Insane > 2244 - 2418 (second run)
[Captivate Android Development] zerojay:
Build 5 problems.. no APNs listed unlike Build 4 which did have my APNs (Rogers) and attempting to add an APN causes Settings to FC each and every time.

Titanium Backup

I am loving these Perception Roms but this time when i flashed stock loaded it up and tried to restore all my apps(not the data, dont worry) i got a low space warning???? What is that mess all about?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Yes I read the other combative comments as well, but it us not the first time 2 developers took some shots, and it is not my business.

I have always been very quick to jump at updates. My phone is running so well right now I just want to make sure all angles are covered before I jump

I don't over clock either, I personally feel the speed is great without it
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
Holy fast!

these were taken build 5 no UV settings yet

oops wifi was on.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Reboot into Recovery, go into UVL > Lagfix ---- and set "BIND_DATA_TO_DBDATA=false"

With that turned on, thats one of the side-effects is disk space warnings for some reason...
[Captivate Android Development] Phoenix-Lead:
I got the same results without using SetCPU!! I can not believe how quick this ROM is. I am just hoping this ROM holds steady and doesn't start going down hill in the next couple of days. I had been on axura the past week or 2 but decided to give this one a shot and I am glad I did.
[Captivate Android Development] damnitdave:
just flashed the rom this morning before work... ran linpack and getting scores in the high 16 low 17 range.... good work
[Captivate Android Development] ferris2375:
Serious question, if we pool some donations to reach x.xx amount of dollars can we FINALLY start getting some updates rather than full builds that pretty much require a wipe?

Is it really that difficult to just package an update? I'm curious what I might be missing as updates are common with other ROMs like the Evo.

Battery Life

Lost 12% battery in 2 1/2 hours. Running quadrant 4 times, installed 4 apps from market. Wifi Off, GPS Off, BT Off, 3G On with auto screen brightness with 2 min timeout, backgroud data has been on.

Perception Build 4, 1.4.2 1280xt Kernel. Had overclock set to 1280 with lower voltages on all for 2 hours just changed it to 1ghz standard voltages. These were the settings at lower voltages.

1280 - 50

1000 - 50

800 - 75

400 -75

200 -75

100 -75

Does this seem like excessive battery usage?? I have recalibrated and redone the battery info file last night with full drain and then full charge last night. I see where others have had great experiences with this rom and kernel. Am I missing something? Could this just be a faster draining battery? I do have another one, just havent tested it yet.

Any Information, suggestions or opinions welcomed. Thank you.
[Captivate Android Development] MikeyMike01:
All it takes is the removal of 4 or so lines of text from a single file.
[Captivate Android Development] ferris2375:
Whoa, really?

Can you elaborate or maybe link me to a way to do this?

So I can alter a single file and run these releases as updates?
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
I have wondered the same thing. I don't think it would be exactly the same but I think it would work in theory
[Captivate Android Development] eep2378:
Im coming from cog 2.3b6 and I don't think I can flash perception via CWM right from cog? Im assuming I need to flash from an eclair build. I have the ota jh7 build that was released a while ago. Its one of the stock eclair builds so it shouldn't be a problem right?

[Captivate Android Development] troyr:
So with each build (currently on 4) are we supposed to flash back to JF6? Our can we flash build 5 right over it?
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
you need to odin back to stock then flash
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
Ill let you know if it works going from 4 to 5..

most people will prob say to odin back to stock first.
[Captivate Android Development] eelton:
I did this without going back to stock, and it worked fine. I did tell it to wipe system data when asked.
[Captivate Android Development] gocats7:
Can someone explain to me the advantage of the Huge APN list? I am in a mostly AT&T area and run AT&T obviously. I have seen more drops in fringe areas with build 3 & 4 (only Perception ROM's I have ran) than I did with some of the Cognition ROM's. Could this be related or is it just the luck of the draw, weather conditions, etc?

I have build 4 tweaked and setup sweet so redoing it is iffy but damnit I like to stay on the bleeding edge with the rest of you. For those that have gone from build 4 to build 5 is there anything I should know or is the most I will notice the build number changing? What I mean is build 4 is running so sweet, I just can't imagine enough of a boost to make it worth it.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
idk, for me, it wasn't on the phone after i flashed, i had to search the forums and download it...

Try re-downloading the rom, it may have gotten corrupted.

No, you should not do that, as Cog. 2.3 used Voodoo, and it will most likely have bad side-effects.

Read Above.

You should ALWAYS Flash back to stock when using a different rom...
[Captivate Android Development] pvr:
I was one of those ppl that didn't want to go back to JF6 before updating ROMs and I gotta tell: It's not worth the question on wheter it will work or not.

Just buy yourself TiBu PRO and backup all user Apps+Data but not System data and you have nothing else to do. Reconfiguring your phone will take no longer than 5min top.

Here's what I do (and I did it about 10x yesterday trying to figure it out if I could use the damn Twitter app on 2.2)

1) Backup my stuff with TiBu

2) Reboot into download

3) Odin One Click for glory

4) Settings > Applications > Development > Enable USB Debug

5) adb reboot recovery

6) Reinstall packages (sometimes 2x)

7) Flash zip from SD Card

8) Wait & Profit

Srsly, 5min top. Worth the effort since you're pretty much changing the whole system - specially if you have any lagfix in place.
[Captivate Android Development] chvybeatsford:
Thanks pulled bat and restarted all worked fine..
[Captivate Android Development] eelton:
more than Screebl

My auto-rotatation isn't working with this build (yes, it's enabled in settings). It's presumably the same problem as I'm having with Screebl--the orientation sensors aren't working for me.
[Captivate Android Development] bts0uth:
If your phone dies won't it corrupt everything using JFS? Always has for me.
[Captivate Android Development] Atokade:
I can confirm the same issue on Fido (aka Rogers).

I flashed from Build 4 back to JF6, then did a Master clear before installing Build 5.

With the Cognition ROMs, I usually manually added my APN, which was not necessary in Perception build 4. However with Build 5, there is no APN, and when trying to add an APN, it force closes, so I'm essentially without data.

The apn issue people are reporting, is this more of a canada thing? I am in the nyc area. I do not travel too much and have not run into any signal issues.

I found an apn fix

well, its really a bandaid lol

i was on cognition 2.3beta6 before this

with titanuim backup i backed up all system data..

once i restored all system data (i know, its a no no, worth a shot) i was able to add apns without issue
[Captivate Android Development] RockRatt:
I went from 2.3b6 to perception B4 with no issues at all. Just cleared cache and full wipe from cwm then install. At least tbat worked for me. Most of the time I am not near a pc when flashing.

Couple of questions, I guess fire anyone who may know.

Build 5 moves to the jfs filing, so I guess the data corruption issue had been resolved? Does this work beter then ext 4?

What is the net benefit if the additional apns?

What functional improvements does the kernal update bring to this rom?
