I have seen in the past, occasional bad flashes. NOTE - these didn't come about because I did something wrong. So I would do a couple of things:

1. check the zip files - do a binary file compare and make sure they are sound. (unchanged from originals)

2. Do a full CLEAN of the phone - yes it does take time - about 1.5 hours total.

3. Follow the method for the clean as posted by dc41 #3286

Before you do anything - make a full BACKUP!

I hope this helps.

cog or percep......tell me whats the diff. im seeing issues with both right now and i just want to know the main diff.s anyone?!
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
what issues are you having.... what version are you running....

Im on P8 non-oc and no bugs or issues to report.
[Captivate Android Development] j.v.fouts:
cog v2.3b6, i want to move to the new one but im reading issues, and im trying to find out what the diff between cog and perception are and which is more stable and better
[Captivate Android Development] calisonic:
Just installed perception build 8, no I have no heptic vibrate feedback when I type?

It worked on build 6, any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
Id suggest Better keyboard. its a known issue with the no haptic
[Captivate Android Development] alias3800:
Battery issue

I'm just going to throw this info into the pile:

I've been using the OC version of P7 and I'm loving every aspect of it so far. What I've noticed is that the only time I have the charging issue is when I use the original Samsung battery when I charge my phone at night. (I have 2 other "ebay" ones - yeah, I use my phone too often lol)

Otherwise, every time I charge my phone through the night, it's "on" when I wake up. So, no issue with the charging.

The only other problem is with the market (it's been mentioned several times before). But given all the other pros, I can definitely deal with a con or two. Even Samsung doesn't produce perfect software, so I'm not complaining.
[Captivate Android Development] kryichek:
It works for me on the swype keyboard on P8
[Captivate Android Development] TheYar:
The airplane mode thing has been around for a while. It is caused by flashing the rom with the USB cable plugged in. After you've stocked, cleared, and put CRM and Perception files on the phone, unplug the cable before rebooting into recovery and leave it unplugged until you've flashed, lagfixed, and finished the first long boot into Perception.
[Captivate Android Development] calisonic:
Man on build six Quadrant was showing 2300 + . Now on build 8 its only 1100 or so
[Captivate Android Development] BLWedge09:
And as many others here will tell you, that means basically nothing. Do you have lag? I know I don't. VooDoo lagfix doesn't inflate the scores the same way that ULF did.

Of course, I'm flash happy these days. I ran Perception build 8 for a couple days, tried the new Axura, and am now running the latest Cog B7. I realized that I kind of miss Cognition. Haptic feedback on the back button, 5 bars instead of 4 on the signal strength meter, and I like the Cog boot animations better. I know I can change them, but still. I also just flashed the new JK4 modem to try it out while waiting on Perception 9.
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
DG man wish i could do more for all your hard work!!

I'll def get at you after the holidays.

P8 has been going great....battery life has been awesome. This morning I had FC's with Market trying to update some installed apps, had to restart the phone. other than that the usual markget problems of hanging on d/l or isntall (which I believe is a market issue right?)....Haven't done anything since its full charge yesterday morning other that mild to moderate usage. on the non-OC version....
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
OC version set to 1000 and no more charging issues.
[Captivate Android Development] Tickie:
I am running Perception 7 now, if I use Rom manager and instill Perception 8 will I loose all my apps and data... including contacts?
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
You need to back everything up on your external sd card and remove it before installing to be safe.
[Captivate Android Development] dc41:
The only issues I'm having with p8 is the charging issue. It's not just having the phone froze and or turned off in the morning.

If I plug in or unplug the power cable anytime during the boot process, I have trouble with freezes and force closures. I usually have to pop the battery before it will boot again. Weird stuff.

Btw... using ocuv version.
[Captivate Android Development] eatonjb:
OCUV

so.. Please help me understand the Overclock and Undervolt?

I know that OC phones or computers use more power, right?

but and Under Volt, would use less power?

would the OCUV save battery, eat more battery, keep it just even like the normal version or what?

please advise.

thank you

I tried that gpsrestore app. I had to be outside for it to do its thing. Before using it I couldn't lock indoors, after using it I can lock indoors to about 6 sats in about 15 secs. Outside I lock with 10 secs to 10 sats.

[Captivate Android Development] ph00ny:
awesome experience with the rom so far. Much much snappier coming from unmolested stock 2.1.

Only complaint so far is samsung's music app. I can't figure out how to go back to the music list main screen to select another play list or albums
[Captivate Android Development] Voicebox:
I had a similar experience with it, except for the going outside part. It did improve the numbers of satellites by maybe 1 or 2, plus the satellites in use went up and the number staying in use was way better. Before I'd often have 5 or 6 showing but none would be in use, then it would connect back then drop, and on and on. Afterwards it would almost always hold 3 or 4. But going to P8 has messed up GPS again for me so I'm going to try installing a third time. Voodoo seems to cause problems for my GPS.
[Captivate Android Development] used2hvatreo:
Overclocking does require more power in some cases. However, in samsungs case, at stock frequency they have the processor enabled to use more than what is required for stable operation. In the case of oc/uv, there is room too bump up the frequency and still reduce the voltage level while maintaining stability
[Captivate Android Development] crydee:
I am coming from cognition. I just Odin to Stock JF6 and rooted. Trying to use Clockwork Mod Manager to install Perception 8 but got stuck theres a triangle with a ! inside and the green android guy now. Should I just pull the battery and try again?
[Captivate Android Development] CNKirby:
Random Reboot

Any ideas why the phone would just reboot itself? I just hung up a phone call, and my phone vibrated once and then rebooted apparently on its own. Im running B8 non-oc/uv. It looks like my gmail app was updated to add the priority inbox stuff. Did that cause a reboot for anyone else?
[Captivate Android Development] eatonjb:
so.. one more question, whats the chance of an UV normal running processor? like stock speed, less volts, can that extend battery life?
[Captivate Android Development] crydee:
Ok I tried again, seemed to be installing fine then a screen comes up "Sorry! Process system is not responding" with option for force close / wait but the menu won't respond either err.
[Captivate Android Development] CNKirby:
Yes, if you get the oc/uv kernel then you can disable the overclocking but still use the undervolting to get increased battery life.
[Captivate Android Development] CNKirby:
Perception is a Rom based off the i9000, Cognition is based off the Captivate. Both currently use the same kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] CNKirby:
I installed Swype from the OP, and enabled haptic. It vibrates when I type.
[Captivate Android Development] halfsoul:
Odin to stock and try again
[Captivate Android Development] sinichi21:
hmm somehow i can't disable lagfix at all it keeps booting up normally after saying converting data paritition converting system partition then it boots up normally no matter how many times i reboot its always like that, and when never i use android id changer my gps becomes borked dont know but have tried to restore from stock and flash perception 3 times i get the same results every time :(
[Captivate Android Development] calisonic:
I didn't know that. So is there any good standard to get a numerical value of speed?
[Captivate Android Development] calisonic:
Also, is it true that some of these roms can actually improve cell signal strength? Is so how does that work? Boosting voltages somewhere?
[Captivate Android Development] brocabortzfield:
The multi-touch keyboard from the previous builds is where its at. I'll post a link to the CWM/.zip later.
[Captivate Android Development] eatonjb:
GREAT!!! I'm all over that like pigs in ............poop.. :P

Thanks again! I want more battery life, and performance is def a want, but i can sacrifice a little for more battery!

thanks again!

[Captivate Android Development] crydee:
It worked. Though I was ready to try the APN restore thing.
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
New gingerbread keyboard is multitouch

Settings > Applications > Development is still there ;)

edit, Oh, I see what you are saying... odd removal...
[Captivate Android Development] brocabortzfield:
I was referring to the black multi-touch keyboard that was in earlier builds. Sorry for the confusion.
[Captivate Android Development] sjavvaji:
is anyone having issues getting on 3g with jk3?...this is the first time running perception 8 non oc-uv off a stock 2.1...
[Captivate Android Development] Adaptive13:
It seems that the guts of the current version Perception and Cognition is the same. So with Perception being an i9000 based ROM and Cognition being a captivate ROM, does it really matter which one is used? Is there a more quantifiable explanation for why to choose one over the other?

I am running Perception B8 OC/UV and love it so far...
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Kernel is the same, that's not the guts, the framework would be the guts.
[Captivate Android Development] keitht:
Yes, odd indeed. I like this setting when I have the phone plugged in the car because my power button is obstructed by the holder so I cannot easily turn the screen on. I use a program in the Market called StayAwake and hope that it will work with that setting removed.
[Captivate Android Development] veener79:
You teased us now where is 9?? ;) jk
[Captivate Android Development] phishie:
Was going to install Build 8 but don't want to do it with 9 just around the corner.. can't wait to try it DG.
[Captivate Android Development] phishie:
Kernel vs Framework vs Firmware.. so confusing to me. I understand the ROM is the full package w/ apps etc, but have a hard time differentiating the formers.
[Captivate Android Development] nappent:
I hear you... but I'm flash happy so I try out every rom he releases.
[Captivate Android Development] CanuckinPA:
I've gone back to Cog build 6. Love it so far.
[Captivate Android Development] pj1000:
I went back to B6 as well from Perception. Simply put, it works without drama, and handles all the features I use flawlessly. Excellent work by DG, I must say.
[Captivate Android Development] Riotblade:
Is there any way to enable the stock icon backgrounds / application drawer?
[Captivate Android Development] epoplive:
This rom is annoying. Constant reboots on it's own, constant total lockups, failure to read the sd card sometimes, no service until reboot...ughhh.
[Captivate Android Development] CNKirby:
The kernel handles the hardware (drivers, power management, etc.), the framework handles the os components (resource & window management, etc), the firmware normally refers to android versions (1.5, 1.6, 2.1, etc.)
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
/system/apps

If I back up my apps using TIBU and want to place one of those apps in the /system/apps folder using ROOT EXPLORER, then how would this be done? When I go to the TIBU backup folder, I see diff versions of the same app, each with different extensions.
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
I would suggest clearing out all the backups and starting over...

Point Tibu to you external sd card and backup your apps there.

Then whenever loading a new rom just repoint tibu back to the external sd and restore the apps..

external_sd/Tita.......
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
sounds like you have a bad flash....instead of complaining about it, try to reflash it (going stock first)
[Captivate Android Development] CNKirby:
The haptic feedback on the home button works in the Cognition rom. Other than that I can't find a reason to go back. But everyone's mileage varies. Some people feel that they get better reception, gps, or battery life (plug in anything you want) with different roms.

Personally Perception seems more responsive to me (both in data throughput and ui performance).
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
To be honest mine has locked up a couple of times and rebooted...
[Captivate Android Development] Jay120171:
It still uses RFS on /system according to the thread. As long as you continue to use a ULF kernel the possible corruption shouldn't be an issue. It is when you swap in a non-ULF kernel like voodoo that you may have an issue. If you ODIN to stock before flashing it also shouldn't be an issue.
[Captivate Android Development] Guardian_Bob:
So for those who can't really stand the eye, here's a gift.

Yes I own the rights to the photo, I took it.

Yes this is now flashable.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Thanks so much for that clarification. I have taken on the plan of always flashing ODIN to stock. Seen too many others fighting issues when they don't, so I guess I'm good to go. :D

About to start the migration now.
[Captivate Android Development] shaolin95:
So is there really an animation on this one? I do not get any animation at all when booting?

I can try my old Apple is for eating one I guess.

DG, thanks for giving i9000 roms another shot. I used to flash Cog until I tried my first i9000 and loved how snappy they are not to mention OC and HSUPA so it is good to have you working on this ones again :-)

Time to edit my Sig again!
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
I've read the entire thread, and I don't see that it is fixed yet. And it is not on his changelog (OP Page).

I am ready to apply Build 1, and do the various tweaks for fixing that. Someone said you can just change the 2 to 1 in the link. But alas, I get a 404. Can't get to Build 1.

I may go look at his Wiki and go to the old files from Cognition to see if it is there, but I don't expect it to be there.

If anyone finds how to bet to Build 1, post up please.
[Captivate Android Development] sfernandez:
Here you go

and if this doesnt work check out post #415
[Captivate Android Development] SethGorton:
Ok. Had to Flash back to Build 1. No voice calls allowed. I tried every method on here. Also I am having serious problems with GPS. The GPS was working before I flashed to Build 1 the first time. I tried the jm9.zip but that did nothing that was noticed. I use the Gps with google maps alot since I travel alot. I also cannot use GPS settings by dialing *#*#1472365#*#*. The phone does nothing after this. Any more suggestions. This is a great build DG. This is something that I did or didnt do.
[Captivate Android Development] Pixelcreativ:
do not use inku's themes from CWM. youre phone will not boot.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Thank you. Much appreciated.

I guess I spaced out post 415 after having read 414 saying you would just change the 2 to a 1.

Your link worked perfedctly. Downloading now.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
This question is probably not necessary, but making assumptions gets us in trouble. I"ve been burnt twice on these Circle mods. Hope to not happen again. ;)

You said use the framework from 'a JK3 Framework file'. I presume I just pull the one from the phone after installing the ROM, and use it. No?
[Captivate Android Development] JEANRIVERA:
did you tried this method? is it working?
[Captivate Android Development] dc41:
Easiest and perhaps safest way is to use the UOT Kitchen. You choose what you want, upload your own framework, the kitchen works its magic. You then download a zip file ready for CW install.
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
Yes, I suppose. The problem is I tried that and had nothing but FCs. Seemsm very simple. But that was on 2.3b6, and given all the issues there with Voodoo, maybe that is what burned me. I was never able to disable lagfix on that one.

Would I want to do this before applying one of the lag fixes built in here? Oh, well, flash just finished. I guess I'll try the UOT again right now, then apply the lagfix and hope for the best.

Thanks.
[Captivate Android Development] JEANRIVERA:
i think the OP have not yet noticed the outbound call issue he have not respond to any of the posts made about the issue
[Captivate Android Development] dc41:
I pulled the JJ4 modem from 2.3b6 and 2.3b4. Neither fixed the "no voice call" problem. I'll just go to Google Voice and forward the calls from my cell to my office line... until DG has a chance to fix things. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
OH...I forgot about the issue with Build 1 mounting as a CD. Hmmm...

Well, in my case, I have no option in the pulldown to even try to month the USB; and the PC doesn't see anything attached at all.

I'll try Swiftp.

What I should do is wait for build 3. :rolleyes: Ants in my pants though...
[Captivate Android Development] designgears:
Op knows now... how did I miss that?!
[Captivate Android Development] JEANRIVERA:
thats ok you just have a couple of hundreds followers here i think no one else is going to notice i wont tell any one!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Captivate Android Development] ewingr:
UOT -> Framework-res.apk successful

It worked fine, so I have the circle batt. I wonder if any of the other mods that UOT site offers while setting it up is worth while, and if they work. No pics to see what it is they offer. I figured I should leave well enough alone for now.

What I need to do is find something else to play with for a while, and wait for Build 3.
[Captivate Android Development] Jjparknyc:
where do i put the files for swype? can't find the META-INF folder.
[Captivate Android Development] CNKirby:
The old app drawer is part of TouchWiz. Reinstall TouchWiz for that.
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
No, I do believe you had misunderstood my last post. I know how to back up using TIBU, but, sometimes, A ROM lacks an app that I have backed up, but cannot be restored using TIBU on certain ROMs.....like the CLOCK app in AUXORA.
[Captivate Android Development] gotfolk:
oic i def misunderstood.
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
SUGGESTIOn for BUILD 8....or 9.....or 10

DG, I normally love your ROMS, but I have had a better time with the newest AUXURA, over the newest PERCEPTION - sleep deaths are something that I do not like to deal with and your previous OC/UV ROMs never gave me that problema.

I would love to see an option in the phone that lets me choose from various lock screens - AUXURA has four of them...ANDROID, PUZZLE and two others. Man, I wish I had two cappys......

Either way, I will not give up and THANKS!!!
[Captivate Android Development] networkdood:
No big deal. I will figure it somehow....
[Captivate Android Development] BLWedge09:
Not really. OCLF and the different lagfixes included in the Clockwork ULF (Universal Lag Fix) all inflate the benchmark apps that are commonly used (linpack and Quadrant). Really, the only way to judge it is by feel. If you don't notice any real lag, then that's what's most important.

Honestly though, as a techie myself, I admit that I do run the benchmarks just to see what they say. I can't help myself. I'm a java developer by day and I build my own PCs. I just can't help but see where the benchmark numbers stand. However, I can tell you that even though Perception 8 and Cognition 7 show much lower Quadrant scores than ROMS using the setiroN kernel with ULF, I can't tell enough of a difference for it to matter. In fact, right now I'm not even running the OC/UV version...just the stock clock speed and it is extremely fast.

Bluetooth selection dialog

Hi, can someone clue me in as to how to install the bluetooth device selection dialog a-la Axura?

In Axura, when bluetooth is enabled, a dialog pops up allowing me to select a paired device to connect to.
[Captivate Android Development] PAulyhoffman:
I agree

I have set just about every ULF option possible and found many different scores with the same ROM/Kernel. EXT4nj with loop ext2 gets the highest scores.

I have also found that some other fixes get high scores and seem to be more laggy. I am anxiously waiting for nine to try out voodoo again. I bought a wall charger and two more batteries (4 total) so I don't have to plug the phone in ever. no more worries about death.

You're right. I've been using a real world test I actually care about, using RockPlayer to play Xvid files in software decoding mode (jittery in hardware mode), and when testing the same file, Perception is consistently faster and smoother than other rom's I've tried based on avg fps and feel. In fact, non-oc in Perception is still faster than 1400 MHz OC in another ROM I tried. :eek:
