YES. 3 times now. I'm on my 4th.

I know very well the procedure to flash this phone; I never upgrade over a ROM; I do a clean flash to stock with ODIN, then update.zip to Clockworkmod recovery and flash the new one.

Trying now, again. Just flash to Perception Build 4; will let you know how it goes.

Ok here's the log as I go. Restarted both phones. Other phone will be called Phone 2.

1. Phone 2 called Captivate. No problem. Went to voicemail.

2. Captivate calls Phone 2. Ringing tone is very horrible (as in signal is bad although I have full signal strength) and eventually call ends by itself.

3. Captivate calls Phone 2 again. Rings twice (not the other phone physically, just ringing sound in Captivate) and call ends by itself again.

4. Captivate calls Phone 2 again. Rings twice and comes with the error message "The person you are trying to call is not accepting phone calls at this time. Please try your call again later."

5. Captivate calls Phone 2 again. This time it goes through completely and I am able to leave a voicemail message.

6. Phone 2 calls Captivate. Goes to voicemail successfully.

7. Captivate calls Phone 2. Rings twice and comes with the error message "The person you are trying to call is not accepting phone calls at this time. Please try your call again later."

Is that enough?
[Captivate Android Development] blazin619:
do a master clear also sir.
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
At what point in the flash? I've already done this to no avail. Please see my previous post where I've posted a complete log of how it went.
[Captivate Android Development] Mercath:
I would normally do a master clear after flashing to stock.

That being said, I like to think of Android as akin to Windows when it comes to phones: sometimes it just messes up for no apparent reason. What works on one guy's phone won't work on another's.

Its the nature of the beast.
[Captivate Android Development] Sqdnguns:
After flashing to stock, do a master clear...............
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
Unfortunately, I already did that a few times. It did not help. You guys did read the call log in my post?
[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Unfortunately it must be something with your phone as I do not see anyone else having this issue...Maybe you are in a weak signal area for the modem that is used in this ROM...You can try flashing different I9000 modems to see if it helps...
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
Is it possible to flash a different modem on a ROM? I didn't even know that was possible.
[Captivate Android Development] Sqdnguns:
I do not see where you say doing a master clear in your call log post. Is this the post you're referring to?

Ok here's the log as I go

[Captivate Android Development] jhernand1102:
Yes...Look in the modem thread and flash them with Odin...It goes in the PDA slot I think...Just read the thread and it will say...
[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
And from the Call log... where it says this person is not able to take calls at this time... well thats nothing todo with the modem...

The Modem on this Rom has been the best Modem for me an i'm out in the middle of no where with crap reception...

now when you flash to Perception Build 4...

Flash B4,

after it boots up don't even touch the phone for 5-10mins, let it get all the stuff finished syncing etc... then goto settings / wireless and network / mobile networks / Access Point Names "make sure its checked" / Network Operators " search for best ATT signal one out of the ones it searches for usually will pull 2-3 after you select one give it 5-10mins to sync check your signal and such if its still bad try the next one
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
Yes, that's the one.

And to be absolutely certain, I just did it again. Flash stock via ODIN. Did a master clear. Booted into Clockwork recovery mode, flashed Perception 4.

First phone call from Captivate FAILS, and ends call by itself. Second call, says the person I'm trying to call is not accepting phone calls at this time.
[Captivate Android Development] Mechpilot:
Sounds like your modem did not flash right. I remember it was happening back in the later cog ROMs. Try reflashing just the modem.
[Captivate Android Development] wade7919:
Okay let me say this again... when it says The Person I'm Trying To CAll Is Not Accepting Phone CAlls At This Time

has nothing to do with the ROM & MODEM ... it has to do with that persons cell phone / home phone service provider / phone / service etc...

nothing to do with YOUR PHONE an or ROM MODEM.....
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
APN is already checked.

Network Operators gives me 2 options that both say AT&T. First one is the same one I'm connected to. I tried the second one and it says that my SIM won't allow me to register on that network.
[Captivate Android Development] ajm786:
If that's the case, why is it when I flash to Cognition 2.3b6 or back to stock Eclair, everything works perfectly as it should? My brother's phone is a Samsung Eternity which is on MY plan (family plan).
[Captivate Android Development] godzulu:

[Captivate Android Development] liqn7:
Gone from the latest Cog to Cog Bacon and am getting random reboots every few minutes :(

Any ideas?
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
hmmmm.....
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Maybe disable OC in the voltage app...

Or try one more time odin back to stock then CW bacon.
[Captivate Android Development] :
Read what he said....

"Went from the latest Cog to Cog Bacon..."

I.e. VooDoo to ULF. And because flashing Bacon would require using CWM and not Odin, there is no wipe of VooDoo. I want to say, and I may be right or wrong, that 75% of the people that use these ROMs don't disable/remove VooDoo every time, or even at all. However, I will say this....

Please read the developers first post, AT LEAST, and any other FAQ you can get your hands on. Why? Because then you won't ask a question when you can easily deduce the answer yourself.

At any rate, yes, Flash back to stock with Odin, backup your apps/homescreens to your machine, and any other data you wish to keep, and Master Clear it. It'll get rid of all the data (including VooDoo's folder/remnants)... then install this rom via CWM.

And, thank you PirateGhost for quoting his original post. I think you may have been too subtle though. :P
[Captivate Android Development] liqn7:
Thanks :) I'll try disabling the OC first.

ROM is fantastic when its working. So many great features over normal cog.

Also how do you customise/get BLN working? I've enabled it in CWM, but nothing appears to be happening with SMS/calls/emails?

cheers
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
So that means how did he originaly do it? I always odin to stock and that takes care of all that...might be a voodoo folder but you can delete that from the card. Anyways bacon is OC by default soooo........
[Captivate Android Development] tyc0:
Since flashing to Perception Build 4, does anyone's GPS still run after exiting navigation or maps? Only way for me to turn it off is to turn off the GPS setting :(
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
I dont think I have heard about that issue, also dont think there is an option in phone settings so maybe try and toggle it one more time in CWM then reboot of course...
[Captivate Android Development] liqn7:
Thanks for the suggestions. I didn't go back to stock as I don't have Odin set up on my computer yet.

Made sure there is no Voodoo folder. What lag fix are you guys using though from CWM?

I've disabled OC and its stable thus far since (30 minutes).

Would be great to get BLN working though.

cheers
[Captivate Android Development] Pirateghost:
if your BLN isnt working by default, then you have a bad flash

go back to stock and try again.
[Captivate Android Development] Cboss:
Yeah maybe try another install ......lag fix depends on what you want. I use all ext4
[Captivate Android Development] liqn7:
Thanks. Am still getting reboots. Will have to go back to stock.

Coming from the N1, I'm just used to wiping and flashing things straight on top.

Thanks again for the heads up :)

cheers

Edit: Does anyone have a link for JF6 stock? XDA search function is not working :(
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
Nice screenshots. How'd you get the circle battery mod? I miss it, so much more accurate, I can't read the number in the stock mod that came with Perception. Do you have a link and instructions to how you got it working? Also, I love the wallpaper, the eye is giving me the creeps. Do you have a link to that wallpaper?
[Captivate Android Development] Rhiannon224:
It's a bootanimation and the kernel supports them. Check the themes and apps section of the forum, there are many, follow the instructions in that thread to install. I have the Apples are the eating bootanimation running on mine, works great.

[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
I used ultimate online kitchen to make the supercircle battery mod version I. It's great. Just choose your battery, dont try to make any other changes that it offers, upload a copy of your current framework-res.apk so it can "integrate" and then it'll give you a d/l link to a file you can flash with cwm =)

here's a copy of the wallpaper. if you need a better copy, i got it from appbrain http://db.tt/byZXQng

[Captivate Android Development] android158:
If you read his post correctly he's talking about the first bootanimation. The first one you see when it boots up. It says samsung GT-I9000.

I believe DG said earlier in the thread that as of right now there is no way to change the first bootanimation, only the second one...

Sigh.

While there is no doubt that this is by far the best ROM (fastest of all, fixes the damn GPS issue, has HSUPA), I can't use it as a phone. I tried everything, calls drop all over the place.

Back to 2.3b6. :(

[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
You need to read the instructions more carefully.

Where does it say to rename anything to update.zip? CWM is your update.zip. As the directions say, after flashing stock and then boot to cwm and install this. That means reinstall packages in blue text and choose zip from sdcard in green text. Then you scroll to the perception.zip
[Captivate Android Development] it2swbrown:
Should have said I already tried the method too. I redownloaded the file and tried again and it worked. File must have gotten corrupted when i downloaded it the first time.

Thanks. Loving it.
[Captivate Android Development] Haloruler64:
Been running this all day, have had amazing battery life. Unplugged almost 27 hours ago, and still at 32%. I did get a lockup where nothing worked but phone was still on, but I assume that's my 1.28 GHz overclock with -50 mV undervolt not playing nice. I really don't mind

DG, I just realized that Auto brightness doesn't work in browser, it still defaults to in-browser settings. Previous ROMs use auto even in browser. Not a bug, just a change in behavior which is neither good nor bad IMO. I really don't care :) otherwise this is the best experience I've ever had with my captivate!

BTW, with this new modem I finally get signal in the bathroom! Never did before!
[Captivate Android Development] yungstar89:
Came here from cognition b6 and this rom is FAST.

Really smooth. Although there is one thing that bugs me.

The button lights. Looks like it has been mentioned already but this really bugs me. I have to hit the buttons to make the backlight appear. It's really not a big deal, but it makes the experience that much better when you tap 3-4 times in the dark just to find the home button.

Any fixes for this coming out in build 5?
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
I'm so glad I gave Perception another chance. I've had no issues with this ROM! It's amazingly fast, responsive, and slick! I downloaded the flip animations, incorporated them into Darkness 2.3, and VIOLA! I have a great looking Captivate!

I haven't fully tested GPS, but it did lock fast, and was pretty accurate.

I haven't even begun to get into voltage tweaks. I'm gonna have to look at my old freq_volt_table files to get an idea of what I was able to run before. Gonna run it for a day or so to see if any bugs pop up, and then I'll start tweaking that OC/UV!

Again, great work DG!

[Captivate Android Development] Gr8Danes:
I have experienced the same thing when referring to the lockups. Though, I have mine set to not overclock. At random times, I would get a black screen, and no response from buttons. I had to do a battery pull to do a reboot. I noticed that the frequencies became more consistent yesterday until the point of getting to a kernel panic mode. So, I just did a flash back to stock with a master clear and redid the flash. Was good up until this morning again when it has happened once again. Anyone have any ideas? I also redownloaded the ROM the second time just in case it was corrupted somehow.

Voltage controls I am running are 125, 125, 100, 75, 75, 0 with no overclocking. Also set on noop.
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
Try changing the voltage, that seems a bit low and could be causing the lockups...
[Captivate Android Development] Gr8Danes:
What have you been running?
[Captivate Android Development] Dr. Bogger:
I'm not actually running Perception as of yet, but i'm preparing to flash now...

But i would try raising them by one notch, and test to see if u still have the problem...

Yes I agree I was running the same voltages and I started having lockups and an overnight shot down.

I switched to -75 across the board and no over clocking it has been very stable. Last night it used only 2% of the battery. This is fast and stable now.

[Captivate Android Development] prim8:
The only reason I and others had a problem with all the gps talk in the cog thread is because dg didn't add any gps adjustments our fixes so any perceived improvement was random our do to some other factor.

It is different here because he has decided to add the jupiter files.

My gps seems no different than on the last two versions of cog.

Quick Q re: flashing

When I flashed build 4 over 3, I specifically chose *not* to wipe/factory reset, but it happened anyway. Is this just a one-time thing because of the lagfix default? It seems like backing up that data should occur *before* partition formatting. :-)

Anyway, it's no biggie: I just want to avoid the hour-long Ti-restore/reconfiguration process when build 5 comes out.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
No. It wa because dg said he didnt do anything to change gps and yet the thread was polluted with people talking about it. A mod even said to take the gps comments toa separate thread.

And dont call people dicks for listening to dg and that mod.....

How to I install the extras like the animations and lock screen
[Captivate Android Development] Drew489:
The battery life on this ROM seems great, had some slight issues with Gmail sync but I quickly re-flashed right after a back-up with TiBu and it works fine now.

The dl/ul speeds are still weird. Sometimes I'll get 500 down and 3000 up (which I know is normal for hsupa) and other times I'll get -340 (yes, negative) down and it will freeze on the upload. Not a big deal at all, just seeing if anyone else had this issue.

Great ROM, this and 2.3b6 are my 2 favs.
[Captivate Android Development] timur525:
Is your sim backwards? I freaked once when i flashed to stock and i had my Sim backwards.
[Captivate Android Development] Ethere:
I'd like to know this as well.
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
I'm not wasting time reading the ten pages that have been posted since I went to bed. Lol. However, I have to add that everyone is praising the GPS performance of this ROM but my GPS peformance is officially the worst it's ever been. This has persisted through about five installs of Perception 4, including one with a master clear. When I'm connected to wifi and standing just outside my back door, I can lock onto about 8 satellites. As soon as I'm in my car, though, I can't get a lock at all. I went into the lbs test mode and changed it from standalone to MS Assisted and got a lock for about two seconds last night. It locked just long enough for Maps to show my location, then the GPS icon started flashing again and I got the blue circle around my location. If this hadn't persisted through roughly five installations (all of which I flashed to JF6 first and one of which I went further with a master clear) then I might chalk this up to a bad flash. I wish I knew why this seems to work so well for others and not me.
[Captivate Android Development] Demented71:
I know the animations are done through ClockworkMOD Recovery. I would assume the lock screen is done that way as well.

Future reference; if you open the zip with Winzip or Winrar or whatever, and you see two folders: "META-INF and system", it's a pretty sure thing that they are applied by using CWR.
[Captivate Android Development] techmik67:
Oh, I see, you are TRYING to start trouble.......
[Captivate Android Development] Drew489:
That is bizarre. At this point, it's gotta be different hardware in different releases of the Captivate. My GPS has only worked on...

1. Cog 2.3b6 and the version before. It was about 80% accurate

2. JH7...it was about 50% accurate.

3. Perception 4...pretty much 100%. Not as good as my G1 but very usable.

All other builds, stock, ROMs, etc... was basically 0% / useless. Never locking unless I was sitting still and it was using wireless networks.
[Captivate Android Development] DoritosMan:
So I can just flash them by ClockworkMod

And how do I calibrate my battery?
[Captivate Android Development] RKight:
See, I had decent GPS when I was still on stock JF6 and even JH7. When I first installed JI6 and the 2.2 based Cognitions, it wasn't perfect but it was useable. I couldn't rely on it for the navigation app but it worked just fine for basic tracking in Google Maps. It got me where I was going, and I didn't mind that I didn't have a nice voice to tell me if I missed my turn. Now, though, it is completely useless. I can't even get my location in Maps unless I'm connected to wifi.
