You don't open the file. All you do is copy the zip file to your internal sd. Then go into recovery and select run from zip, select the file and you should be done.

I'm a big fan of black, especially with electronics, but this screen is drop dead gorgeous with colors... why drain the life? my 2c, thanks for the info though
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
I think it might be a feature to differentiate between position sif I am thinking of the right occurrence you're talking about. The New Sense has gestures related to proximity sensor too, like volume control with accelerometer and horizontal positioning shutting off proximity sensor and I think turning on speakerphone. I had a conversation with my cousin about this, and I said that'd suck if you're laying in bed using it horizontally.
[Captivate Android Development] Pinepig:
Nope, I had just flashed over the top of cog3.6. Finishing up a clean install from scratch right now, if it fixes it I'll post up.
[Captivate Android Development] veive:
As stated before, I went back to stock via Odin 1 click before flashing.
[Captivate Android Development] screwyluie:
ok, I've been digging around on my own, trying to figure it out, but I've had no luck. I'm wondering how you changed the splash screen on this rom. for clarification, the GT-I9000 Samsung screen, not the animation that should follow it. I don't much care for it and I would like to change it.... can you point me in the right direction?

sorry if it's super simple, i tried to find it, just not having any luck. other then that this rom is the best, I love it
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
I'm pretty sure that's kernel level. Never seen anything to fix that.
[Captivate Android Development] screwyluie:
crap, forgot to ask, how do you get to the options for the launcher? I can't find them anywhere

and an observation with the battery meter... my battery life is great, used the phone a bunch works all day no problem... the meter on the other hand is VERY sketchy. by that I mean, for instance, I can plug in the usb to load some files on the phone or change a system file, etc, the meter will be say, 75%, plug it in it says charging 47%, unplug it 1 minute later and I'm at 86% charge. the number just seem to be all over the place, but it doesn't happen like this 100% of the time, but often enough to be annoying.
[Captivate Android Development] screwyluie:
thanks for the fast reply. I saw a post somewhere about using fastboot (LINK) to do it, but that was another phone and I'm not sure it has any bearing on us... I just figured since the rom can change it, and other phones can change theirs, there ought to be a way to do it on my phone as well... if not that's ok I don't ever turn my phone off, so it's not a big deal
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Launcher2 doesn't have any options

That's a sign of an uncalibrated battery. You can try the calibration if it bothers you, but if you have good battery life I wouldn't bother really.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
I really don't know much about Fastboot, sorry. It MIGHT be possible but I never saw anything

Also, ROM doesn't change it, kernel does. using an i9000 kernel on an i897 ROM will still have i9000 splash screen. Again from my limited knowledge :)
[Captivate Android Development] android158:
I appreciate this very much!!! Thank you!
[Captivate Android Development] DoritosMan:
Do I need to flash this via Rom Manager?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Yep. From stock preferably though, fixes a lot of potential issues.
[Captivate Android Development] DoritosMan:
So

1. Flash Stock

2. One Click Root

3. Install Rom Manager

4. Flash this with Rom Manager

5. Profit?
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Well you can just copy the update.zip from your current flash, and copy it back after flashing stock. No need for root when using CWM!

1. Flash Stock

2. Copy update.zip to internal SD

3. Flash ROM through CWM

4. ???

5. PROFIT!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] Pinepig:
I hate to quote myself but for those of you that have the text thing happening after a voicemail, it's not a bug, a clean install from stock ( JF6 ) with a master clear fixed it. I have everything setup just like I had before and it no longer does it.
[Captivate Android Development] DoritosMan:
So I can flash this through the regular way of

Rename to update at root and boot into recovery
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
No, don't rename anything. You currently have an update.zip on your internal SD, that is CWM. Put that back after flashing to stock. Boot into recovery, Reinstall Packages (might have to press it twice), then itll be in CWM (green text). From there choose the Perception zip and flash.

You CAN just root and install ROM Manager like you described. Personally that is the slower method for me and a lot of others but it works too
[Captivate Android Development] DoritosMan:
Dang it

I already flashed Stock
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
No harm done, just root and install ROM Manager, end result is the same, just a bit slower :) Good luck!
[Captivate Android Development] Sqdnguns:
Good that you got it sorted out. This is a PRIME example of why people should follow the Dev's (DG) recommendations prior to flashing. It save's a lot of heartache and bandwidth............... ;)
[Captivate Android Development] Pinepig:
I know this, hell I even had an argument in another thread with another fellow about doing a clean install. That's what I get for being lazy.:D
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I used to never flash back to stock, and I had many successful flashes. All I was doing, though, was updating Cognition...and I had gone to Cog from a stock ROM in the first place. Once I started playing around with i9000 kernels and modems, as well as other ROMs, I quickly realized how important it is to flash back to stock. I've had so many strange issues that were fixed by simply flashing back to stock and then reflashing the ROM. I still don't do a master clear every time but I have had a couple of situations where that seemed to fix issues that lingered even after flashing to JF6.

[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Did you come from stock? Mine works flawlessly from stock on Build 3 and 4.

I get garbled texts whenever voicemails are received and deleted, any fixes????
[Captivate Android Development] kudakeru:
I had this exact same problem on Build 4. It's the dialer that crashes. To fix it, I reflashed and restored data/apps via TiBu, but skipped everything relating to voicemail/SMS/MMS/APN. Worked perfectly.
[Captivate Android Development] saoirse_go_deo:
DG, I just wanted to say very briefly that I hope you keep the GPS fix mentioned in the change log for build 4. I flashed build 4 today and got a GPS lock within about five seconds; eight or more satellite's, and all of them had very high SNR compared to any previous ROM or GPS fix I've ever used. I'm also in the same locale so as far as my typical sky view and satellite availability, the variables are essentially the same as ever.

I know that GPS is almost a taboo topic on this thread, and that performance certainly varies by locale and individual device variations, but I was so surprised by the change that I simply had to say something.

Moreover, I noted in Lbstest that the default setting was Standalone, which to my understanding means that my device was functioning more or less as a regular GPS, receiving no cellular assistance. Amazing, given the performance!

Keep up the wonderful work, man. You have made it just a complete joy to use the Captivate. More donations to follow :)
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I never ever restore data. I always choose "apps only". I accidentally restored apps+data a couple of days ago after a fresh flash and it was pure chaos. I had so many issues that I flashed back to stock and started over. I'd rather take some time to reconfigure all of my apps and widgets than take a chance on borking a fresh install.
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
Anyone know how I can fix this? Also the other issue I am seeing is when I download a file from XDA app I can not find the file on my phone afterwards.
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
why are you trying to open it from within your OS on your phone????

make sure its downloaded to your /sdcard/ANYFOLDERYOUDAMNWELLPLEASE/

reboot into recovery and use clockworkmod to install from zip

its not hard at all
[Captivate Android Development] mcord11758:
Xda app saves files to either your download folder or a folder that says something like taptotalkxda. Any file you want to add through clockwork need so to be moved to root of your internal sd card. Same place your my files app defaults to.
[Captivate Android Development] cappysw10:
Should be in tapatalk folder.
[Captivate Android Development] tbong777:
WOW really?? ..LOl Shades of Apple...

I don;t think GPS should be taboo in this thread because there is a DEFINiTE improvement that is consistant and verifiable. My GPS has NEVER been better or more consistant than with this ROM. I am getting 6 Sat locks IN MY HOUSE!!

I barely saw one Sat before with the Cog Captivate ROMS and it was inconsistant at best. The GPS is reliable and fast with this ROM which THANKFULLY proves it is not hardware that has been causeing the issues. Which means Samsung CAN fix it "officially"
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I've seen mixed reports on restoring data. In particular, NEVER restore system data. And I'ave seen mention that you shouldn't restore Launcher Pro data. I am beginning to believe that, as the LP backups seem to stop working if you restore that. (Fun, huh? Restore backups, break the app.)

Anyway, I am selective, but I typically restore data, except as noted above. I do always follow the OPs recommendations, and in fact go a little furterh. I go to stock, and I do eveyr cache delete, format, master clear, etc. that I can find.

Interestingly enough, I have not been restoring apps on my last two ROM updates. I install from market, then restore the data. But only for a few where I feel I need the restore.

:D As I thought about my processes and wrote this, I've just about indicated I don't restore data. Darned close to it.

I"m on Build 3 now. I think for grins, I'm going to try a fresh install like quoted above for build 5 when it gets here, but restore apps and data (only 3rd party apps), and see how it goes. Then if problematic, I'll do it over and not restore data. If I find anything interesting I'll post it. Of course, different versions of ROMS may act differently too.
[Captivate Android Development] wtc_bd:
Could someone explain to me why GPS is a taboo issue???

It seems especially important with the differences we see ROM to ROM and Kernel/modem combinations.

If a rom, provides better or worse GPS reception overall, shouldn't it be noted?

Of course we all know the captivate has problems compared to other phones, but what's the deal with ignoring things that help?
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I think the reason this ROM is doing so well on GPS is because he has put in the Jupiter6 files, which I was quoting as a fix back in the COG threads. The last couple COG roms I had worked very well, and all I had done was put the Jupiter 6 files on.

The COG thread in particular had bashers of GPS talk. But hopefully the MOD's have straightened people out. Everybody has different needs.

Back in the COG thread there were several that said "It is broken, it has nothing to do wiht the ROM". It became quite an argument and made visiting the thread no fun. That has simmered down due to the MOD's efforts, and I thinik here it is evidenced finally that different files in a ROM can affect the GPS. That being said, the GPS is still not perfect, and lengthy dicussions on that should probably go to the GPS threads. I did a fairly lengthy post based on testing some of the offered solutions here, and posted a short note here, wiht a link to my post in the GPS thread for those interested.
[Captivate Android Development] wtc_bd:
Thankfully, someone had the common sense to follow up on this issue to bring about much improved results now. To censor such an important part of the phone is just not productive.

Trust me, when I say GPS is a BIG seller of Android phones when comparing to Iphone and others. If working correctly, you can eliminate another device and not worry about paying for updated maps (google maps is constantly updated) and have access to traffice related events as well without breaking the bank.

For those of us that rely on getting to a new destination for clients, it is a godsend.

For individual use, maybe not a big thing, but for business and marketing purposes it's a deal breaker.

thanks that worked
[Captivate Android Development] tnayrbj:
How

How did you flash 1.4.1 1280, did you flash right after loading the ROM?

Sorry more question, did you use odin or CWM
[Captivate Android Development] kudakeru:
I've been restoring from TiBu backups after flashing different ROMS for months now, and this is the first time I've had any issues. This time I just skipped dialer-related backups and restored everything else. I've never had an issue with Launcher Pro backups causing failures.
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
I am writing this from the newly flashed Perception ROM. This thing is fast!!!

I do have two problems. First, whenever I make a call for the first time directly after reboot, the phone hangs up the call as soon as it is connected. The second issue is that the home touch button has no haptic feedback, even though I enabled haptic feedback in the menu settings. Is this a known bug?

Otherwise, this ROM is simply outstanding. I had no clue that H is so much faster than 3G. Was AT&T/Samsung hiding this capability from us on purpose?

Okay, Been running the rom since late last night, one of the few first people to install the rom. Every runs great.. Modem is awesome.. Stock i got 2-3 bars Edge where i live, with this rom i get 3-5 bars Edge. 3G outside and HSUPA outside on occasion. Battery Life is good, charged to full, screen off for 5 hours while i slept woke up and was at 99%, with lagfix overkill. Haven't had any FC's on the rom

only issue i had was oclf loopd me at i9000 screen so i had to odin back to jf6 then reinstall... but that was my fault. other than that Everything has been running great and steady.. No noise in voice or anything else during calls.

DG or anyone with the info I have a question on the camera. I know some of the older cog roms we had tbe camera that you could choose to use or not use the gps exif data. My question is can we use a older camera that has that option? Sometimes I like being able to know wbere the pic was taken and other times (like if I am at my girlfriends house and the wife doesnt know..haha j/k) I dont want the exif data there. I am guessing tbe answer will be just turn Off/On the gps from the pulldown/widget. Just inquiring minds want to know. Thanks ahead of time.

[Captivate Android Development] jeremytanner:
Interestingly, it gives one haptic buzz if you hold it down, where in stock it would give a double. Is this related to the backlight LED notification being tied to it, perhaps? Or just related to the i9000? This is the first time I've run a ROM based on anything besides the US version.

Ok, just tested calling with my brother's phone.

This ROM is useless for actual phone use. Every time I try calling to the phone, calls drop all over the place. When I place calls with the phone, calls drop all over the place. The usual voice error messages I get are:

1. This user is not accepting phone calls at this time. Please try your call again later.

2. Rings, then busy signal.

Flashing back to stock, calls work perfectly.

Any suggestions/help?
